1240 One Shock After Another (4)



The Great Dao of Heaven and Earth was the most obscure and difficult to understand. This was something that everyone knew.

Below the Divine Abilities Stage, there was no question of comprehending the Dao. It was basically a process of continuously strengthening one's physical body. For dual cultivation of life and death, the physical body was the foundation of everything below the Divine Abilities Stage. It was the most important.

In the endless sea of bitter cultivation, only when the body was strong enough could it transform into a small boat that carried the cultivator to the other side of cultivation.

However, when one reached the Divine Abilities Stage, one had to begin strengthening their spiritual cultivation base to comprehend the Heavenly Dao. However, the Heavenly Dao was so obscure and difficult to understand.

A Dao Entering-level painting could display a portion of the Heavenly Dao in front of everyone in the form of illusions. This was the most precious.

Therefore, every time a Dao Entering-level painting entered the world, it would undoubtedly attract countless people's attention. It would often be bought at a high price in a very short period of time. There was basically no possibility of it circulating outside.

Among the Dao Entering-level paintings, there was one that was the most precious. It was the kind of painting that Situ Ye had taken out. It contained a martial arts ultimate art.

This kind of painting looked like it was just drawing an action, but in fact, there was a set of powerful martial arts hidden in it. As long as one studied it every day, one could even learn a set of powerful techniques.

Not to mention the preciousness of the Dao Entering-level painting, even such a powerful martial art was worth a lot. When the two factors were combined, the price was really terrifying.

Compared to Kong Buyi's handiwork, this painting was no small gift.

After understanding this, countless people gasped. What was Situ Ye thinking? If this painting was spread outside, it would cause countless people to kill each other.

"I saw the signature just now. It's Scholar Shenkong's painting!"

When many people heard this, their eyes widened. They had heard of Scholar Shenkong. To be precise, Scholar Shenkong was not a person of the present day. He was a painting grandmaster from hundreds of years ago. At that time, his name still shocked the world. Even if it was just his early doodles, they could be sold for a sky-high price now.

Not to mention this was a Dao Entering-level painting. Even a great grandmaster of the painter's path could not draw a painting at the Dao Entering level every time. To draw even one, it often took a long time to brew. The spirit was in harmony with heaven and earth, and it was only possible to draw it in a state of divine Dao integration.

Scholar Shenkong had been famous for a long time, so the price of his paintings had always been high. It was very rare to find a Dao Entering-level painting. In addition, it was a painting by Scholar Shenkong, so it was even more precious.

"This... This is too valuable!"

Chu Yaowei was stunned for a moment before he quickly said. He felt more and more puzzled.

Why did everyone like to come here with such scary things?

A Dao Entering-level painting was very precious. In addition, it was a painting that contained an ultimate art. Its value naturally went without saying. It had far exceeded the point of returning the favor.

If he accepted it, he did not know when he would be able to repay this favor.

Everyone was making things difficult for him.

Although Chu Yaowei was extremely touched, he knew that if Situ Ye was trying to curry favor for no reason, he would either be a traitor or a thief.

"What's there to be afraid of?" Situ Ye said, "This is to congratulate the Matriarch on her birthday anyway."

Since he had already said this, Chu Yaowei could only say, "All right then. Brother Situ, please take a seat."

Chu Yaowei quickly asked someone to keep the painting.

Not far away, Chang Shenghong, Chu Xiujie, and the others were staring at the painting with their eyes wide open. That was a Dao Entering-level painting. Even they could only look at it.

If a Divine didn't have the support of a large faction, it would be very difficult for them to afford such a painting even if they died of exhaustion. If they added in the fact that it was the incarnation of a famous master like Scholar Shenkong, the price was even more ridiculous.

After all, they couldn't risk all their wealth to buy a painting. That would be too wasteful.

Now that one of them had actually appeared before their eyes, how could they not be envious?

However, what happened next made Chang Shenghong gnash his teeth in jealousy. Situ Ye had no intention of sitting down at all. Instead, he went straight to Chu Yunfan.

"You are Chu..." Situ Ye was stumped for a moment as if he couldn't think of how to address Chu Yunfan.

"President Situ, just call me Yunfan!" Chu Yunfan said. He knew what Situ Ye was trying to do, but he didn't care.

Hearing Chu Yunfan's words, Situ Ye heaved a sigh of relief. A bright smile appeared on his face as he said, "My daughter has mentioned you numerous times. I'm indebted to you for taking care of her, but I haven't had the time to come and thank you. I hope you don't take offense."

Situ Ye was talking about how Chu Yunfan had saved Situ Miaoyi. After hearing about it, he felt a chill down his spine. If Situ Miaoyi had been hurt, he would never forgive himself.

Chu Yunfan looked at Situ Ye with a faint smile. It had been more than a month since this incident, and Situ Ye had only come to visit him now. He was afraid that thanking him was only a small part of the reason. The real reason was probably that he knew about the battle between him and Wan Huang.

Whether it was Kong Buyi or Situ Ye, they were probably here because of this. However, Chu Yunfan had no intention of exposing him.

He knew what was going on, but the others didn't. When they saw this scene, their eyes almost popped out. From what Situ Ye said, it seemed that Chu Yunfan had helped Situ Miaoyi with something before, which was why Situ Ye had personally come to thank him.

But what was with that attitude? It was simply too much!

They could all see that Situ Ye even had a fawning expression on his face. He was completely different from the usual high and mighty President Situ!

One had to know that Situ Ye was neither flustered nor servile even when he was facing Marquis Zhongxin and the matriarch. However, in front of Chu Yunfan, he actually showed a fawning expression as if he was afraid that Chu Yunfan would find fault with him.

This must be a fake Situ Ye!

Only Situ Ye himself knew that when he found out that Chu Yunfan was the one who had fought Wan Huang, he was completely dumbfounded. Back then, when the matriarch forcefully introduced Chu Yunfan to Situ Miaoyi, he was not very happy.

If it was the heir of the marquis, then they could be considered a match of equal status. However, Chu Yunfan was just a candidate with no hope of becoming the heir. Wasn't this making things difficult for people?

Who knew that the situation would suddenly change?
