The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 2053 - 2042: Subjugation! Peace Restored!
Upon hearing about the affairs of his own family.
The old Wu Fengxian and old Jiang Yuntian inside Ye Chenfeng’s body sighed repeatedly.
The Moon Fairy they met at the Immortal Moon Pavilion in the Profound Continent, though she was also a direct descendant of Wu Fengxian, was certainly not born at the end of the Ancient Era. The Moon Fairy definitely did not understand much about the affairs at the end of the Ancient Era; otherwise, she wouldn’t be so proud of her current family.
At that time, Ye Chenfeng and his companions did not get much useful information from the Moon Fairy.
Old Wu Fengxian said, "Young fellow, why don’t you ask again about the details of that time."
Ye Chenfeng could only continue asking, "Were the Wus and the Jiangs conquered by the Hes at that time?"
The voice from the largest glass bottle said, "That’s right, though I don’t know the final details, without their number one genius, the Wus and Jiangs were surely retreating step by step."
"However, a dead camel is still bigger than a horse; that chaos at the end of the Ancient Era surely lasted for hundreds of years. Now the Hes have probably become a transcendent existence."
From this voice, Ye Chenfeng could hear endless forlorn, unwillingness, and anger.
Both old Wu and old Jiang remained silent, and Ye Chenfeng didn’t want to waste time. He said in his heart, "Old Wu, old Jiang, can I release these consciousnesses now?"
Old Jiang Yuntian said, "No need to hurry, ask these consciousnesses if they are willing to follow you. You can tell them that you have a ghost cultivator’s cultivation technique to teach them, a technique I accidentally acquired long ago, which doesn’t rely on devouring flesh and blood for strength."
"Alas, the path of ghost cultivation is not the orthodox way! It’s impossible to step onto the supreme path, but these are all pitiful people. How cruel the Hes were back then! If they practice the ghost cultivation technique I obtained, it’s at least better than devouring flesh and blood, and won’t make them increasingly bloodthirsty."
"These consciousnesses can be released from the glass bottle, but the Hes pinned their souls to this city, so they can never leave it, unless Old Wu and I can restore our power to its peak, we might be able to help them break free."
"If they are willing to follow you, this Ancient City of Heavenly Origin can become your stronghold, since among these ghost cultivators are Divine King Realm ones."
Upon hearing old Jiang’s words, Ye Chenfeng said, "I have a ghost cultivation technique here, certainly much better than devouring flesh and blood. If you are willing to follow me, I can teach you this technique. Of course, you can decide for yourself; I won’t force you nor use the release of your consciousness as a threat."
The voice from the largest glass bottle pondered for a while and said, "Very well! If there really is such a technique, we are willing to acknowledge you as our master, after all, you are the one who rescued us."
The voices from the surrounding glass bottles also spoke in agreement, they seemed to take the largest glass bottle’s consciousness as their center.
"Alright, I will now release your consciousness. I forgot to introduce myself; my name is Ye Chenfeng," said Ye Chenfeng.
The voice from the largest glass bottle said, "My name is Liu Wenquan."
There are hundreds of glass bottles on these cases! To release consciousness from them, the runes on the bottles must be wiped away, which may be difficult for others, but with old Wu and old Jiang’s help, it’s a trivial matter for Ye Chenfeng.
"Pa la! Pa la! Pa la! ——"
With the help of old Wu and old Jiang, each time Ye Chenfeng wipes away a rune, a glass bottle shatters, releasing the consciousness within.
Moments later.
All the runes on the hundreds of glass bottles were wiped away, and the bottles were shattered.
All consciousnesses restored their freedom.
Ye Chenfeng said, "You are now free, and this city won’t likely disappear in the evening anymore. You ghost cultivators aren’t fit to be active during the day, so I will alter the formation above to allow you free passage, return here during the day!"
This was what old Wu and old Jiang reminded Ye Chenfeng, as old Wu and old Jiang believed that the formation here was likely set by their enemy. It seems their enemy became even more arrogant after their deaths, not arranging any mechanisms apart from the extremely complex hidden formation.
Old Wu and old Jiang decided to modify the formation above; normally this formation is undetectable, only ghost cultivators can freely come and go within it.
Of course, it’s also thanks to the original formation; old Wu and old Jiang made improvements based on the original formation, otherwise with their current state, they couldn’t set up such formations.
After listening to Ye Chenfeng’s instructions, all consciousnesses quickly flew towards the ground above.
Within the Ancient City of Heavenly Origin.
Those consciousnesses flying upward quickly sought out their own souls.
Their white consciousness merged into the ghost cultivators, and those originally vacant-eyed ghost cultivators immediately returned to life.
Meanwhile, inside the house where Xue Wanqing and others hid.
Each person held their breath in anxiety with every passing moment, hearing the constant crashing sounds outside and seeing the Ghost Suppression Seal on the doors and windows growing dimmer. They knew the seal wouldn’t last much longer, and they didn’t know what’s happening with Ye Chenfeng.
But suddenly.
The crashing sounds outside disappeared.
Yet Xue Wanqing and others could sense the ghost cultivators outside had not left.
Outside the house.
All ghost cultivators’ hollow and vacant eyes were gone, consciousnesses seemed to have successfully entered them.
When Ye Chenfeng appeared not far from the house, the ghost cultivators gathered around him. With consciousness restored, their appearances became less terrifying, although they still exuded a chilling aura.
Ye Chenfeng’s gaze fixed on a middle-aged ghost cultivator, whose aura was overwhelmingly powerful, even making him feel that a mere flick of the finger from this ghost could easily crush him. He said, "Are you Liu Wenquan?"
The ghost cultivator nodded, saying, "Young brother, we will keep our word, now let’s see if your ghost cultivation technique is real."
Old Jiang had already told Ye Chenfeng the ghost cultivation technique.
Ye Chenfeng walked up to Liu Wenquan, pointing a finger at Liu Wenquan’s brow, a stream of white light instantly flew into Liu Wenquan’s head. Within that white light lies the ghost cultivation technique.
After examining it for a while, Liu Wenquan’s expression dramatically changed, as the ghost cultivation technique was indeed powerful, far superior to simply devouring flesh and blood.
After adjusting his emotions, Liu Wenquan bowed to Ye Chenfeng, saying, "You are our young master from now on."
The surrounding ghost cultivators also bowed to Ye Chenfeng.
Ye Chenfeng said, "I’m glad you accept the technique; I will leave the task of teaching the other ghost cultivators to you."
After acknowledging Ye Chenfeng as their young master, Liu Wenquan became much more respectful towards Ye Chenfeng. He appreciated Ye Chenfeng, for not using the wooden token as a threat. He said, "Young Master, rest assured, I will handle it for you. I also need to report our ghost cultivator numbers to you."
"I am a ghost cultivator at the Initial Stage of the Divine King Realm, while the rest are at Heavenly God Realm, Earth God Realm, and Spirit God Realm, with fifty at Heavenly God Realm, one hundred fifty at Earth God Realm, and two hundred at Spirit God Realm."
"You know we can’t leave this city, so if you’re ever in danger, return to the city so we can assist you."
Hearing the number of ghost cultivators here made Ye Chenfeng sigh; the strength of Heavenly God Realm and Earth God Realm fighters alone might exceed that of any sect in the Central Continent, not to mention those at the Divine King Realm, which are the true determinants of a sect’s power. Ye Chenfeng believes the sects of the Central Continent must have warriors beyond the Initial Stage of Heavenly God Realm.
Therefore, Liu Wenquan and the ghost cultivators are not fit to appear in the sight of others; as long as they stay beneath the formation, no one will find them.
Ye Chenfeng instructed Liu Wenquan and the others to remain under the formation and focus on cultivation.
Naturally, Liu Wenquan and the ghost cultivators agreed.
Once Liu Wenquan and the ghost cultivators dispersed, Ye Chenfeng knew that someday, he would use the Ancient City of Heavenly Origin as his true base. But for now, having just arrived, he couldn’t afford to draw too much attention.
Tonight, the crisis in the Ancient City of Heavenly Origin was thoroughly resolved, and Ye Chenfeng walked towards the house with closed doors and windows not far away.
