Chapter 1672 (Raw 1684): Naughty Martial Nephew

Soon, Ling Yu poured two cups of tea and gave them to Xiao Chen and Ye Zifeng.

"Master, Martial Uncle, please have tea."

Ye Zifeng nodded and indicated for Ling Yu to go out first.

Xiao Chen picked up his teacup and sipped gently. Naturally, Ling Yu's brewing technique was not good. However, with a few Snow Lotus petals in them, the tea gained a certain taste, leaving a bitter flavor that whetted one's appetite.

After putting down the teacup, Xiao Chen whispered, "Senior Brother, you brought your saber out?"

Ye Zifeng nodded and said, "I made a trip to the Black Lotus Church's holy mountain and helped you deal with a part of your problem temporarily."

Xiao Chen felt startled, not having thought that Ye Zifeng would go to the Black Lotus Church without a single word.

Although the Black Lotus Church was also in the Grave Sea Cluster, the distance was more than hundreds of millions of kilometers. This was simply unexpected.

Ye Zifeng had taken the saber and gone to the Black Lotus Church to deal with the matter. Even with the return trip, Ling Yu still had not finished brewing tea.

The shock in Xiao Chen's heart was simply indescribable, completely stunning him.

"Senior Brother, you fought with the Black Lotus Church's Sect Venerate?"

Ye Zifeng put down his teacup and said, "I sent out one saber strike, and he sent out three palm strikes. For the next ten years, the Black Lotus Sect Venerate will not be able to make a move against you personally. Short of a miracle, I will not be able to recover my Holy Venerate cultivation within five years."

When Xiao Chen heard this, he was startled. Ye Zifeng made it sound very casual, speaking so calmly.

However, Xiao Chen could imagine how dangerous the exchange had been.

The Black Lotus Sect Venerate's strength also surpassed Xiao Chen's expectations. With three palm strikes, he damaged Ye Zifeng's cultivation so badly that it would take five years to recover.

However, Ye Zifeng's strength was also startling. He sent out only one saber strike, yet the Black Lotus Sect Venerate would need ten years to recover.

This truly helped Xiao Chen a lot, severely reducing the pressure on him. It also rendered him somewhat speechless.

Xiao Chen did not know how to thank this senior brother that he just met.

Ye Zifeng said quietly, "The Black Lotus Sect Venerate has the strength of a Sovereign Personage in the first place. He had been recovering his strength in the past few years. My saber strike caused him further injury; hence, he cannot afford to care about you."

Xiao Chen said, "However, Senior Brother, you…"

Ye Zifeng smiled faintly and waved it off. "It's fine. It's just five years. To me, it is a short time. When I digest the force from these three palm strikes, I might even be able to advance further.

"It is hard to say whether it is a blessing or a disaster."

Xiao Chen felt in awe of Ye Zifeng's attitude. Very few people could get Xiao Chen's heartfelt respect. Ye Zifeng was definitely one of them.

"Then, this Snow Lotus?"

At the mention of the Snow Lotus, Ye Zifeng revealed a warm smile. "Luck. He sent me flying. When I landed, I happened to see this stalk of Snow Lotus.

"If you consume this Snow Lotus entirely, you can undermine the black lotus mark in your body to its weakest. At that time, I can use something else to help you remove it."

Given that, all the pressure that the Black Lotus Church placed on Xiao Chen was nearly completely resolved.

The Black Lotus Sect Venerate could not personally make a move, and once the black lotus mark was erased, his subordinates would not be able to find Xiao Chen, either.

Perhaps it might still be possible for the Black Lotus Sect Venerate after ten years. Anything was possible after ten years.

Perhaps at that time, it would not be the Black Lotus Sect Venerate seeking Xiao Chen out but Xiao Chen personally killing his way over.

"Junior Brother, cultivate properly. If you have any questions about the saber, you can come and seek advice from me at any moment."

After saying that, Ye Zifeng walked out while holding his saber, taking large strides as he moved like the passing wind, heading to the summit.

As Xiao Chen watched Ye Zifeng leave, he felt extremely grateful. Many thoughts flashed through his mind.

The great calamity that had been troubling Xiao Chen all the while had been resolved, just like that. Ye Zifeng simply made a quick trip, like the wind, and dealt with it with one saber strike.

Xiao Chen felt like he was relieved of a heavy burden. The care and concern of this senior brother made him feel warmth in his heart.

Honestly speaking, before Xiao Chen came, he did not hold out much hope.

After all, the connection between Xiao Chen and Ye Zifeng was rather tenuous. He only obtained Pan Huang's inheritance in the Kunlun Realm and had not even seen Pan Huang before. However, this Ye Zifeng accepted him as a junior brother without any hesitation.

No matter what, Xiao Chen had to repay this favor in the future.

Although Ye Zifeng always showed a warm smile, Xiao Chen could sense that he had some hidden reason for remaining at the summit for ten years.

"Dong! Dong!"

Footsteps rang out. Ling Yu walked in from outside the door. Then, he looked at the ten-thousand-year-old Snow Lotus by Xiao Chen's side with a fervent gaze.

Ye Zifeng normally did not give out gifts. However, when he did, it would surpass one's imagination.

Ling Yu, who had received gifts from Ye Zifeng before, was well aware of this. He walked over.

With one glance, it was obvious that this Snow Lotus was something good, something even better than what Ling Yu received in the past. It made him very envious.

Ling Yu used his hand to waft the fragrance towards his nose. Then, he smiled. "Martial Uncle, what good thing did Master give you? Let me take a look."

Seeing Ling Yu's appearance, Xiao Chen wanted to laugh. This fellow was really young, unable to keep his thoughts off his face.

Xiao Chen replied casually, "Ten-thousand-year-old Snow Lotus. I heard that it was found in the darkest and filthiest place. Earlier, I took a sip of tea made from it, and I felt my mind clear up, becoming more alert."

"A natural treasure that increases comprehension ability!" Ling Yu said with certainty, his eyes lighting up. Then, he noticed that Ye Zifeng's tea was not finished. So, he picked it up and drained it in one go.

This startled Xiao Chen. How could one drink tea like that? Furthermore, the tea was still scalding.

"Ptooey. It's really bitter. It scalded me…"

Ling Yu spat out all of the tea. Then, he stuck his tongue out and panted, looking like he had eaten something particularly bitter.

However, when Ling Yu looked at the tea on the ground, he facepalmed, and his heart ached.

He had actually spat out a natural treasure that increased comprehension ability.

Xiao Chen smiled and said, "This is the Buddhist sect's Snow Lotus. It can calm one's heart and cleanse evil. The one that increases comprehension ability is bodhi tea. Martial Nephew, you should read more."

Ling Yu exclaimed in anger, "You! You actually cheated me, made me screw up!"

Xiao Chen smiled and retorted, "You are the one who did not restrain yourself when drinking the tea; that's why you got scalded. Increasing comprehension ability was something you assumed as well. I did not even have time to remind you."

When Ling Yu heard that, he felt stifled. As he pointed at Xiao Chen, he did not know how to rebut.

Xiao Chen picked a few petals off the Snow Lotus and handed them to Ling Yu. After he put away the Snow Lotus, he said, "If you enter Berserking Qi Deviation or feeling distracted and frustrated, you can place one piece in your mouth. There is no need to use it with tea. The effects are pretty good."

Ling Yu did not know how important the Snow Lotus was to Xiao Chen, so he received the petals without even saying thanks. Feeling depressed, he turned around to leave.

Xiao Chen took out a jade bottle and called out to stop Ling Yu. "I do not have any natural treasures for increasing comprehension ability. However, I do have a natural treasure that strengthens the physique and aids in breaking through bottlenecks. Do you want it?"

Ling Yu spun around and smiled. "Martial Uncle, you are going to give Martial Nephew a greeting gift? There is no need to be so polite. It is expected of Martial Nephew to serve you."

Although Ling Yu said that, he directly grabbed the jade bottle and held it in his hand.

"I can't really call it a greeting gift. I am rather interested in how you activated your Great Desolate Eon bloodline," Xiao Chen said softly.

When Ling Yu heard this, his eyes wandered as he asked, "Why do you want to know that? Can't you activate your bloodline? That must be so. I have never seen your bloodline before or even heard of it. It must be a lost inheritance that skipped generations.

"However, Martial Uncle, your thinking is too simple if you want to use a small bottle of natural treasure that increases the physique to exchange for this secret."

Xiao Chen smiled and said, "Open it and take a look first. It won't be too late to say that after doing that."

Ling Yu suspiciously removed the bottle cap. The instant the bottle was open, a dense and ancient aura of life wafted out from it.

A spot of golden light flashed within the bottle. Unable to contain his excitement, Ling Yu exclaimed, "Life Juice Source! Furthermore, it is of the highest quality! This is of an even higher level than what the sect stocks."

After saying that, Ling Yu did not hesitate to lift the bottle and raise his head, trying to pour the Life Juice Source into his mouth.

Hehe! Screw you. I'll drink it first.

After finishing it, I'm going to play around with you. I won't tell you the secret to activating the Great Desolate Eon bloodline.

Ling Yu revealed a malicious smile. He opened his mouth wide and even stuck out his tongue. However, after waiting for a long time, no Life Juice Source came out.

Finding it strange, Ling Yu looked into the bottle. He saw a tiny drop of Life Juice Source in there, slowly inching its way to the mouth of the bottle.

The Life Juice Source gave off a golden light and was clear to see. However, it was only a small drop and could not be poured out.

Xiao Chen took out another jade bottle and gently shook it in his hand. Swishing sounds came from inside.

Ling Yu put down the jade bottle and barked, "You fooled me again!"

Xiao Chen smiled warmly. "That's not really so. I did not say that there would be golden Life Juice Source in there. Furthermore, Martial Nephew, I have to guard against your impatient character a little, right?"

Ling Yu thought about the tea incident earlier. Then, he flushed red in some embarrassment.

However, in the blink of an eye, Ling Yu started chuckling. "Martial Uncle, I had been fearing your status and forgot that you are only a half-step Primal Core cultivator."

Xiao Chen asked with a calm expression, "What are you thinking of doing?"

"Haha!" Ling Yu laughed loudly, "Martial Uncle, you have been wandering the world. Have you not heard of killing others for their treasures? Today, I, Ling Yu, am going to beat someone up for their treasure. Screw you. I'll beat you up first. If you don't hand it over, I'll keep beating you up!"

Xiao Chen revealed a strange smile on his face. "Are you sure?"

"Am I sure, my ass! I have long since wanted to punch you already!"
