Best Young Master-Chapter 1398 - 1275: Entering the Ancient Mine
Tongtong eventually left, not getting the answer she desired.
Ye Fan was burdened with too much and couldn’t give an answer to Tongtong.
Like or dislike, he couldn’t provide anything to Tongtong now, so it was better to say nothing.
"Kid, you’re on the path to loneliness!"
The Bai Yan wolf watched Tongtong’s lonely back recede into the distance and scolded Ye Fan.
"Shut up!"
Ye Fan was in a foul mood. To say he had no feelings for Tongtong was impossible. He wasn’t a heartless person, on the contrary, his emotions were rich and delicate, which was why he dared not make promises lightly.
"Alright, since you don’t want to hear it, I won’t insist. What are we doing now? Where are we going?" The Bai Yan wolf had gotten used to hanging out with Ye Fan and felt uncomfortable leaving him.
"Let’s go check out the mine area!"
Ye Fan thought he might try his luck and see if he could find something, gather some Spirit Stones; he was running low on them and needed to replenish his supply urgently.
"Good idea, let’s make a big move and take all the Spirit Stones they’ve stored, how about that?" The wolf’s appetite was much larger, planning to take over the entire Spirit Stone Storage.
"You’re dreaming, every Spirit Stone Storage is heavily guarded by strong people and countless prohibitions. Just you and me taking it over? Dream on!"
Ye Fan scolded the Bai Yan wolf, urging it to behave and not cause trouble. After all, the entire Southern Domain’s young talents were searching for him, and if discovered, it would be easy to get surrounded.
Whoosh!
Whoosh! 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚
Whoosh!
As one man and one wolf headed for the mines, three black dots suddenly flew from the horizon, reaching them in a blink, revealing three Ironback Golden Eagles.
Standing on the middle Ironback Golden Eagle was Qing Zi.
From afar, he saw a person walking on the desolate land and discovered a pure white wolf accompanying this person.
This unique combination was unmistakably Ye Fan!
After all, the White Wolf was itself a rare species, almost impossible to find another one in the entire Southern Domain. With such a combination beside Ye Fan, it was like having a unique trademark.
"Leaf bastard, your time has come!"
Qing Zi’s eyes turned red, and with a loud shout, he abandoned the Golden Eagle and launched a punch towards Ye Fan!
"Qing Zi?"
Ye Fan was shocked; he didn’t expect that just half a day out of the Divine Battle Relics, he would run into his nemesis!
Whoosh!
Startled, Ye Fan didn’t dare to be careless, putting all his strength into a punch to meet Qing Zi’s Punch Ray.
"Boom..."
With a loud explosion, the turquoise Punch Ray collided with the purple-golden Punch Ray, bursting into a dazzling light that was blinding, with violent energy raging like a hurricane.
"No match!"
Ye Fan’s vitality churned, his arm aching from the shock, knowing that he wasn’t Qing Zi’s match right now. He immediately transmitted a message to the Bai Yan wolf, urging it to flee quickly.
Whoosh!
Simultaneously, Ye Fan executed Phantom Step, leaving several afterimages as he fled towards the mines!
The terrain in the mines is complicated, suitable for hiding but not for tracking. Based on this reasoning, Ye Fan decided to flee towards the mines!
"Leaf bastard, if I let you escape my grasp again, I’ll write my name Qing Zi backwards!" Qing Zi was murderously enraged.
With a whistle, one Ironback Golden Eagle pursued Ye Fan at lightning speed, screaming to inform Qing Zi of Ye Fan’s location.
"This feathered beast..."
Ye Fan couldn’t help but curse; with the Ironback Golden Eagle around, his movements were completely exposed to Qing Zi.
"Young master, the three of us combined will capture him first and leave his fate to you!" Two strong cultivators at Early-stage Divine Realm from the Qing Family glared menacingly.
They were aware of the Mist Sea incident, and although they hadn’t personally experienced it, the Qing Family had lost many strong people there, including their descendants. Naturally, they also harbored deep hatred towards Ye Fan and pursued him vigorously.
With a Peak of Holy Embryo Realm Qing Zi, along with two Early-stage Divine Realm strong people, such a setup would make a Mid-stage Divine Power Realm strong person retreat for the time being.
Ye Fan nearly tapped into all his potential, moving as fast as a breeze.
The Bai Yan wolf also gave it all, knowing that if caught by Qing Zi and his men, it would be doomed. At this point, it and Ye Fan were in the same boat, and they had to stick together.
Soon, Ye Fan was nearing the mines.
Hm?
At the next moment, Ye Fan suddenly saw flickering Divine Light ahead in the mine, as if some treasure was there.
"There is Divine Light flickering in the mine, could it be that some strange treasure is about to be born?"
The Bai Yan wolf was exhilarated; it was very sensitive to the aura of treasures and immediately realized that something extraordinary seemed to be emerging in the mine.
"Xiao Fan, head to that mine, there’s a great opportunity. Be quick; don’t let others get there first."
At the same time, Elder Xuan, who was silent in Ye Fan’s sea of consciousness, spoke up, reminding Ye Fan of the great potential ahead.
Ye Fan didn’t trust Bai Yan wolf, but he had absolute faith in Elder Xuan’s words—Elder Xuan would never deceive him!
Swoosh!
Immediately, Ye Fan and Bai Yan wolf nearly exhausted every ounce of effort to hurry towards the mine that emitted the Divine Light.
"Quick, stop them!"
Seeing Ye Fan rushing towards his clan’s mine, Qing Zi was in a panic, quickly ordering the strong people guarding the mine to intercept Ye Fan, under no circumstances should he be allowed to enter the mine.
"What rascal dares to trespass on the Qing clan’s important grounds?"
The strongman stationed at the Qing clan’s mine shouted mightily, as the light flashed in his hand, a Mountain Opening Axe swung down fiercely at Ye Fan.
"Get out of my way!"
Ye Fan’s whole body surged with dragon-like blood and vigor, his War Intent skyrocketing to the peak, he shouted aloud, with one punch he shattered the Peak of Holy Embryo Realm Mountain Opening Axe.
"This..."
The Qing clan’s strongman of mid-stage Holy Embryo Realm was dumbfounded, this Spiritual Treasure was passed down to him by his elders, and with his current Cultivation, he couldn’t yet perform Sacrificial Refinement, yet it was shattered by Ye Fan’s punch, how strong must his body be?
Ye Fan didn’t give him time to be stunned, after smashing his Spiritual Treasure with a punch, the momentum of his fist didn’t diminish, directly blasting him apart in mid-air, blood and shreds of flesh flying all over.
"Quick, stop him, whoever can stop him, my Qing clan will heavily reward, otherwise everyone will be killed!" Qing Zi was also panicked to stop Ye Fan from entering the mine.
Though Ye Fan’s Cultivation was far inferior, his speed was nearly the same, Qing Zi hadn’t caught up after chasing all day, fueling his anger even more.
"Your Qing clan has never regarded us miners as human, only wants to send us to die, we’re not doing it!" Several daring miners not only didn’t attempt to stop Ye Fan but blocked others from doing so.
At this time, an old miner urgently shouted to Ye Fan: "Young hero, there is disaster below the mine, you cannot go down!"
Hmm?
Ye Fan was startled, if there really were a disaster, he truly couldn’t go down.
At that moment, Elder Xuan’s voice echoed again: "Don’t worry, the danger in that Divine Light can’t harm you!"
Swish!
Listening to Elder Xuan, Ye Fan directly plunged into the mine, with Bai Yan wolf following close behind into the mine.
Just then, Qing Zi also reached the edge of the mine, preparing to descend, suddenly sensing a great peril, he forcibly halted, breaking out in a cold sweat!
And the early-stage Divine Power Realm strongman beside him wasn’t so lucky, seeing Ye Fan could go down, he directly pursued down.
"Puff—"
As a result, just reached the wellhead and suddenly exploded, his Divine Soul couldn’t escape, utterly annihilated.
All this happened because when Ye Fan went down, he scattered a large amount of Bone Powder taken from the Forbidden of Forbidden around the wellhead!
This Bone Powder was infused with the strongest Curse Power, even an early-stage Divine Realm Cultivator, let alone a Lord Realm strong person if tainted, would surely die.
Two strong people of the clan died in the blink of an eye, making Qing Zi nearly furious, yet dreaded the curse-laden Bone Powder like a tiger, not daring to approach.
Another early-stage Divine Realm strongman broke out in a cold sweat, his slight hesitation saved his life, otherwise, his end would have mirrored that of his companion.
"This is... Curse Power? How does that kid carry such a Big Killer?" The remaining early-stage Divine Realm strongman had an extremely green face.
"No matter what he carries, it doesn’t matter, today, I must slay him!"
Qing Zi took a deep breath, coldly glanced at the surrounding laborers, his eyes filled with killing intent froze the ordinary laborers as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.
"I refuse to believe you can hide down there forever!"
Qing Zi sneered coldly, standing guard near the mine, ready to give his all to kill Ye Fan once he emerged, regardless of what he gained below, eventually, it would still fall into his hands, as if letting Ye Fan work as a free laborer!
At this time, Ye Fan had already descended to the bottom of the mine, and indeed, the Divine Light caused him no harm, perhaps the danger within had vanished completely, as Bai Yan wolf also remained unscathed.
The Divine Light gradually dimmed, but the sacred aura it exuded did not diminish at all.
Ye Fan followed the mined passage towards the source of the Divine Light.
With the Curse Power-laden Bone Powder in place, he believed Qing Zi absolutely wouldn’t pursue inside, making this relatively the safest place.
This Underworld was vast, the Qing family didn’t know how many years they had been mining, nearly hollowing out the entire mountain belly, it was an enormous space with countless passages crisscrossing.
However, it was clearly an abandoned old mine of unknown age, upon descending, Ye Fan saw several skeletons, clearly those of ordinary people, which crumbled to Bone Powder at the slightest touch.
Following the passage onward, walking for dozens of miles, Ye Fan finally reached the end, discovering the source of Divine Light to be a page of golden shining paper.
The golden glowing paper was gripped by a bizarre claw, but the claw had completely decayed.
"This..."
Seeing this scene, Bai Yan wolf was shocked beyond words, stammering: "A... human-shaped creature’s claw?!"
