Chapter 41: Foreign Cultivators Bullying Me (1)?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

At the Ye Residence.

Ye Xuan had just finished his daily cultivation with Liu Ruyan. After coaxing Liu Ruyan to sleep, Ye Xuan prepared to go to the cultivation room to cultivate the Deity Visualization.

This soul cultivation technique could be said to be the most precious, the most powerful, and the most useful cultivation technique he had at the moment.

As for the deceptive cultivation technique, the Longevity Spirit Transformation Technique, it was a waste that he could not cultivate it without the foundation of a certain lifespan.

Because his current spiritual root was sufficient, at his current speed, as long as he worked hard, he would be able to reach the peak of the Qi Refinement Stage in five years, and would need to prepare to build his foundation.

The effect of lifespan was everywhere. Almost all the functions of the entire system were life-sucking. Ye Xuan naturally would not add all his lifespan to his spiritual root. There was no harm in having a little more lifespan in spare.

Ye Xuan was about to leave Liu Ruyan’s courtyard when his eyes suddenly moved. A strange feeling arose in his heart.

“What’s going on…”

“Something seems to be coming this way…”

Ye Xuan frowned slightly and felt a little uneasy.

Nowadays, he would spend a large amount of his time almost every day cultivating Deity Visualization. The power of his soul had increased rapidly. Not only did the pills he refined last longer, even his perception had become abnormally sharp.

Therefore, he became abnormally vigilant at this moment.

“Swoosh—”

After a few quick leaps, Ye Xuan arrived outside the Ye Residence. Then, he used the “Breath-Holding Technique” that he had exchanged from the System Shop and quickly hid his figure and all his aura.

Although he was not good at fighting, ever since he had the System Shop, he would spend 50% of the lifespan he gained every month to exchange for some life-saving items, such as cultivation techniques, formation techniques, high-level talismans, and other items that he could not obtain on his own.

Although the Ten Thousand Flower City was very safe, there was naturally no harm in having more trump cards.

And now, they were of use to him.

Soon.

Seven figures that flitted about in the darkness of the night came within the range of Ye Xuan’s perception.

However, the seven figures did not notice anything.

“Good fellas, seven independent cultivators of the Qi Refinement Stage actually dare to target me…”

Ye Xuan was speechless.

Although they had not made any move, Ye Xuan could sense their sneaky aura and the aura of blood on their bodies. It was obvious why they were here.

They had probably taken a fancy to Ye Family’s wealth and the medicinal pills he refined, and thought of him as old and powerless, and easy to bully without any background.

After all, only a few people knew his cultivation level.

The outside world’s understanding of his cultivation level probably remained at what was known at the gathering of independent cultivators a few years ago. At that time, he had appeared to be only at Level 5 of the Qi Refinement Stage…

In fact, Level 5 of the Qi Refinement Stage was not considered low. However, all the people who had come to the Ten Thousand Flower City during this period of time were planning to explore the ruins, so their cultivation levels were naturally not too weak. A large number of Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators had come, so there were definitely many high-level Qi Refinement Stage cultivators.

In addition, there were the outside world’s speculations about him; they thought that he was crazy about taking concubines partly because he was lustful, and partly because he was approaching the end of his days, and wanted to spread his roots.

Therefore, these guys’ heads swelled and they wanted to come here and make a big killing.

At the thought of this, Ye Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly and the corners of his mouth slowly curled into a strange smile. “Coincidentally, I’ve recently set up a few small formations in the Ye Family Residence for practice. It’s best to test them out on you guys.”

It was late at night, and a white cloud covered the faint moonlight.

“It’s about time. Let’s do it!”

With a command, five figures quickly infiltrated the Ye Residence silently.

Ma Fei and the other man in black were on guard outside to complete the mission before the patrolling law enforcement team arrived.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The five figures were extremely fast and their target was very obvious. It was the treasure vault located at the Ye Residence!

Before they came, they had already made preparations and bribed the stewards and servants of the Ye Residence. They had already mapped out the entire Ye Residence.

If nothing unexpected happened, they should be able to quietly take away the things from the treasure vault.

If something happened, they could only send the Ye Family Patriarch for reincarnation.

Soon, the few of them avoided all the patrol teams in the Ye Residence and arrived at the entrance to the Ye Residence’s courtyard.

The Ye Family’s treasure vault was a huge underground basement. It was located in the central courtyard of the Ye Residence and was patrolled by a large number of guards.

“Old Gao, is everything ready?”

“Don’t worry, Boss. The wind direction is just right. It’s enough for them to sleep for five to six days.”

The soft voices of conversation fell.

In the dark corner, wisps of smoke that could not be detected by the naked eye suddenly drifted out.

“Hu hu hu—”

A gentle breeze blew, carrying the fine particles in the smoke into the nostrils of every guard.

“Ahhh…

“I’m so sleepy…”

A guard yawned, and his upper and lower eyelids began to gradually fight. Then, he could no longer control himself. He lowered his head and fell asleep, but he remained standing.

Not long after, all the guards in the courtyard fell into a deep sleep, but they all remained standing on the spot. No one fell, and the scene was abnormally strange.

“Hahaha, Old Gao, your Drunken Wind Smoke still works so well.”

The leader of the men in black chuckled softly.

“This thing is very expensive. I used three entire units of Drunken Wind Smoke this time. Boss, you have to compensate me…” The petite young man in black cried..
