Chapter 1783 Celebration Banquet

Fang Tianhua stared in astonishment at the strange object in the other person's hand, but then felt a sharp pain in his chest as a bowl-sized hole appeared.

"You… what kind of hidden weapon is this…"

Before he could finish speaking, his body could no longer support him, and he fell to the ground with a thud.

On the other side, Fang Tiankuo, seeing the unfavorable situation, turned his head to flee, but as soon as he turned, his chest was also pierced.

Ye Bufan used the Demon Refining Bottle to collect the Primordial Spirits of the two, then vanished from the spot.

At the He Family, everyone from top to bottom was currently overjoyed and bustling with excitement.

In the main hall, a banquet had already been prepared, awaiting the return of the two Protectors from the North Sky Sword Sect for the celebration.

The He Family members had originally been watching the battle on the long street, but after Ye Bufan fled, Lei Yang and Min Jin chased after him, while they did not.

Firstly, their cultivation was limited, and their speed was far from matching that of the two Protectors.

Secondly, in their view, there was no need to chase; with two Soul Transformation Stage powerhouses present, no one could save Ye Bufan, who was destined to die.

Under these circumstances, He Tianda directly led everyone back to the He Family to begin preparing the celebratory feast.

He sat in the main hall, his Face beaming with joy, his mouth unable to close from smiling.

Several other core members of the He Family accompanied him, and He Changqing said, "Father, I didn't expect the two Elders to arrive so quickly."

He Tianda said, "That's natural. Didn't you see what cultivation the two Elders possess? They are both in the Middle Stage of the Soul Transformation Realm. There's no one in our entire Tianlang City who can rival them."

Su Boya, however, frowned: "Family Leader, I always feel something isn't right. That Young man seemed to be acting deliberately, just to be able to escape in the end. Did he flee into the City Lord's Mansion, judging by the direction?"

"The City Lord's Mansion, is it useful?"

He Tianda burst into laughter, "With the cultivation of the two Protectors and the prestige of the North Sky Sword Sect, not destroying the City Lord's Mansion is already giving Face to the imperial court, but they definitely cannot protect Ye Bufan."

He Changqing followed, saying, "That's right. The City Lord's strongest cultivation is only Nascent Soul Peak. How could he possibly stop a Divine Rank powerhouse?

The Young man, Ye, was at his wit's end, desperately seeking help, and ultimately, there's only a dead end for him."

Su Boya frowned. What the two said made sense, and he personally agreed, but for some reason, he always had a bad premonition in his heart.

Then he shook his head slightly, thinking he was overthinking it.

He Tianda once again instructed

"Prepare all the good wine and dishes for me, and the musicians too, all of them get into position.

When the two Protectors enter, immediately play the drums and music loudly; it must be lively."

They had been preparing for a long time, but the two Protectors still had not returned.

He Changqing said with some concern, "Father, do you think there could be any unexpected circumstances?"

"Shut up! What unexpected circumstances could there be? Is there a stronger powerhouse in Tianlang City than the two Protectors?"

As He Tianda said this, his heart suddenly tightened. He thought of someone: Ye Bufan's Master, hidden in the shadows. Could it be that the other party's cultivation was even stronger than the two Protectors?

Just then, there was a sudden clamor outside, a hubbub of voices.

Hearing the commotion outside, his anxious heart immediately relaxed. It seemed he had overthought; the two Protectors had already returned victorious.

"Everyone, quickly follow me to welcome them!"

He Tianda was about to lead everyone out to greet them when he saw two figures stumble in, none other than Lei Yang and Min Jin of the North Sky Sword Sect.

But at this moment, the two Protectors no longer had their previous demeanor; they were covered in blood and in a sorry state. Lei Yang had blood at the corner of his mouth, and Min Jin had directly lost an arm.

Everyone present was completely stunned. In their view, these two Protectors should have returned victoriously and gloriously, carrying the head of the Young man, Ye. How could they have ended up like this?

He Tianda swallowed with difficulty and stepped forward, asking, "Two Elders, what happened to you?"

"Don't ask! We encountered a Master." Lei Yang had no mood to say more at this moment, speaking urgently, "Quickly find us a quiet room for healing."

"Oh, oh!"

He Tianda hastily instructed his subordinates to prepare a room for each of them so they could go in and heal.

With the doors closed, the atmosphere in the He Family suddenly became solemn; the previous joy had vanished completely.

"How could this be? How could this be?"

He Changqing seemed unable to bear the shock, muttering incessantly.

Su Boya said, "Family Leader, did the two Protectors really lose to Ye Bufan's Master?"

He Tianda's expression was grave: "That's not confirmed yet, but it seems highly possible now."

He Changqing anxiously cried out, "Father, what should we do then? Is our He Family going to be finished? Are we going to be annihilated like the Shang Family?"

"You shut

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

your mouth! Why are you panicking?"

Compared to him, He Tianda was still calmer. "Since the other party didn't pursue us to the He Family, they must have some scruples.

Moreover, they only injured the two Protectors and didn't kill them, which indicates they are wary of the North Sky Sword Sect."

He Changqing's eyes immediately lit up; he seemed to have regained hope: "That's right, we still have the North Sky Sword Sect backing us.

Father, quickly send another letter to the North Sky Sword Sect and ask the Sect Leader to send more experts."

"Don't rush. Our carrier pigeons, no matter how fast, are not as quick as a transmission jade talisman. Once the two Protectors finish healing, let them directly transmit a message to the Sect Leader."

It turned out that these transmission jade talismans had Ranks, divided into thousand-li, ten-thousand-li, and hundred-thousand-li transmissions. Their prices were also extremely expensive; even a thousand-li one cost over 1 billion gold coins.

As for the ten-thousand-li and hundred-thousand-li transmission jade talismans, they were not only terrifyingly expensive but also had no market value; ordinary people simply couldn't get their hands on them.

Even a large Family like the He Family only possessed thousand-li transmission jade talismans, while the North Sky Sword Sect was ten thousand li away. It was for this reason that carrier pigeons were used before.

But now it was different; as the left and right Protectors of the North Sky Sword Sect, Lei Yang and Min Jin possessed ten-thousand-li transmission jade talismans.

At that time, they could simply transmit a message to the North Sky Sword Sect, which would be much more efficient.

"What's going on? Why is it so quiet outside?"

The three of them were conversing when they suddenly felt something was amiss; it was eerily silent outside, without a single sound.

He Tianda also felt something unusual and shouted loudly, "Someone!"

Usually at this time, the butler would appear immediately, but now there was no sign of the butler. Instead, a Young man, with a slight smile, appeared before them.

"Family Leader He, are you calling for me?"

"You… why are you here?"

He Changqing was terrified when he saw Ye Bufan. Although the other party had a brilliant smile on his Face, in his eyes, it was utterly terrifying.

"You've been thinking of dealing with me, so why can't I come?"

Ye Bufan stepped forward to the three of them: "Don't you think it would be better if we lived in peace? Why do you insist on seeking your own death?"

Seeing that the matter had been exposed, He Tianda no longer hid his feelings and gritted his teeth, saying, "Young man, because you killed my son He Changsheng, because you made my He Family lose all Face, because your existence is a huge threat, you must die!"
