Chapter 2350: Surprised?

Nalan Yujia followed beside him and asked, "Xiao Fan, are you going to teach those Old things a lesson?"

Ye Bufan nodded, "Yes, those golden bell buddha fruits should have been mine. No one can take them away."

Mu Xiaoyun asked with some confusion, "Ye Yixian, since these Yao Beasts listen to you so well, why didn't you let the two Vajra Apes attack just now?"

"Because the time wasn't ripe enough."

Ye Bufan said, "Although the two Vajra Apes could defeat them just now, they couldn't kill them.

Once these three Void Tempering Peak powerhouses escaped, it would be troublesome when we tried to leave after getting the golden bell buddha fruits. They would chase us endlessly."

This was indeed his thought. At the very beginning, he only wanted to get three golden bell buddha fruits, after all, these things were enough for him, and there was no need for him to monopolize them.

It was precisely for this reason that he broke the Innate Formation and made the previous request, but he didn't expect Meng Gang and the others to be so greedy. After agreeing, they immediately went back on their word.

Even so, he gave these people another chance the second time, but unfortunately, Meng Gang and the others didn't cherish it.

They went back on their word again, thinking that they had absolute strength and drove him out.

Since that was the case, he wouldn't be polite anymore and used this hidden trump card.

"Oh!"

Mu Xiaoyun nodded, then said, "But we have that flying Spiritual Artifact from before. If we wanted to run, they wouldn't be able to catch up at all."

"Miss Mu, your thinking is too naive."

Ye Bufan said, "The golden bell buddha fruit is so important, do you think those Great Ascension Stage powerhouses wouldn't be tempted?"

That was indeed the case. For a Cultivator, protecting one's Primordial Spirit was crucial.

The reason why those Great Ascension Stage powerhouses didn't enter the Endless Forest was due to the restrictions of the previous rules, which didn't mean they didn't want it.

Mu Xiaoyun asked, somewhat confused, "Ye Yixian's meaning is?"

"It's simple. Those people are likely waiting at the exit of the Endless Forest. Whoever gets the golden bell buddha fruit will have it snatched away. This way, it's easy to get and doesn't violate the agreement."

"This…"

Mu Xiaoyun was shocked, evidently not having thought of this possibility.

She was too naive; these things were beyond her comprehension.

Ye Bufan secretly shook his head. While cultivating in seclusion could indeed increase one's cultivation quickly, it wasn't necessarily a good thing for a Cultivator.

Staying in seclusion all the time meant a severe lack of social experience, making it easy to be schemed against and suffer greatly.

He added, "Also, Wuliang Temple is a Nine Star Sect, after all. Do you think they wouldn't receive news of two Great Ascension Stage powerhouses dying?

If I'm not mistaken, they have already dispatched other masters to guard the exit of the Endless Forest."

"This…"

Mu Xiaoyun was once again too shocked to speak. According to her thoughts, getting the golden bell buddha fruit would mean everything was fine, but she didn't expect more dangers to be ahead.

"Then what do we do?"

"Let's solve the current problem first. We'll find a way then."

After Ye Bufan finished speaking, he sped up and quickly rushed towards Great Buddha Mountain.

At this moment, in the small valley, Meng Gang and the others gathered together under the golden bell buddha fruit tree.

Everyone looked up, uniformly staring at the seven fruits on the tree.

As time passed, the golden color of those fruits became increasingly rich.

Meng Gang took out seven jade boxes, kept three for himself, and distributed two each to Dong Ruian and Feng Haogeng.

"Everyone, pay attention. According to the ancient texts, the golden bell buddha fruit will automatically fall off after ripening. Just collect it with a jade box."

"Don't worry, Elder, we will handle it well!"

Excitement filled everyone's faces. Although there were still about two quarter-hours until full ripeness, they all held their boxes, staring intently at the fruits.

Feng Haogeng looked smug, "We didn't come here in vain this time; every family has gained something. It seems we still have to thank that fool, Ye Bufan.

If it weren't for his help, we wouldn't have been able to break that Formation or deal with those two 8th-Order Demon Beasts.

It's just a shame he worked so hard for nothing, ultimately doing it all for us, hahahaha…"

As he finished speaking, the fellow burst into a smug laugh, even sweeping away the frustration from being injured earlier.

The others beside him also started laughing, each one laughing heartily.

Liu Zhanhao said, "If you ask me, that guy just has no brain. He fell for it once and then a second time. It's just funny to think about."

Dong Ruian also said with a smile, "That kid looks very smart, but he's actually a fool. Without strength, he still expects others' oaths to be effective. He simply has no brain."

Fang Jinping laughed, "Everyone, guess what he's doing now. He's probably already cried himself unconscious, but who can blame him? It's his own foolishness…"

After he finished speaking, everyone burst into laughter again. Just then, a mocking voice sounded.

"Is that so? It's a pity you guessed wrong. Who will be crying later is still unknown."

As the words fell, Ye Bufan emerged from the dense forest with Nalan Yujia.

"Kid, you actually dare to come back!"

Meng Gang roared, becoming tense all over.

The golden bell buddha fruit was about to ripen, and Ye Bufan had returned at this moment, giving him a bad premonition.

A murderous glint flashed in Feng Haogeng's eyes, "Elder, Dean Dong, why don't the three of us attack together and directly deal with this kid?"

Meng Gang and Dong Ruian exchanged glances, both seeing the killing intent in each other's eyes. After all, it was a critical moment, and no mistakes could be allowed with the golden bell buddha fruit.

"Alright, then we'll deal with this kid!"

Just as Meng Gang finished speaking and was about to make a move, the ground suddenly trembled. Immediately after, two mountain-like figures appeared behind Ye Bufan—it was the Vajra Apes who had just left.

"This…"

Seeing these two giants, everyone present was completely stunned. Even if they were all tied together, they couldn't defeat two 8th-Order Demon Beasts.

Ye Bufan looked at their terrified expressions and chuckled mockingly, "How about it? Surprised? Unexpected?

I'm a person who believes in fate. Generally speaking, oaths made will come true. Seeing that your three Old things have dark complexions and black Qi covering your heads, I estimate that today is the end of your lives."

Meng Gang's three expressions changed. They never dreamed that Ye Bufan could actually command Yao Beasts and bring these two giants back.

Dong Ruian's expression changed, and then his figure quickly disappeared, rushing towards the golden bell buddha fruit.

This fellow had always been cunning. He had now clearly seen that defeating the two Vajra Apes was impossible. The best option at the moment was to quickly leave with the golden bell buddha fruit.

Although he couldn't defeat these two giants, he could still escape.

As for the golden bell buddha fruit not being fully ripe yet, he couldn't care less about that much. Even if the effect was a little worse, it wouldn't be too different.

With this thought, his speed was astonishingly fast, and he directly reached for the fruits on the tree.

Moreover, he wasn't just grabbing two, but encompassing all seven into his True Essence Great Hand, intending to catch them all in one go and take them away.
