Chapter 3597: Terrified

Xuanyuan Zhantian and Fanghua were dumbfounded, and even Gu Qingcheng, Sima Wei, He Shuangshuang, and the others nearby were completely bewildered.

They had just witnessed how arrogant these two people were; the way they looked at them was as if high and mighty gods were looking down on ants, their arrogance knowing no bounds.

But in the blink of an eye, they knelt down, utterly humble, their eyes filled with fear, as if they had seen something terrifying.

They had no idea how chaotic Xuan Lu's and the other's hearts were at this moment; they had cursed the Eastern China Immortal King's ancestors eighteen generations back and forth.

They knew very well what kind of prestige, status, and ruthlessness Ye Bufan had in the Lower Heaven Region.

They had personally witnessed how the East Flower Immortal King's Mansion was razed to the ground, and then personally experienced the change of the Eastern China Immortal King's Residence.

How could such a ruthless character, capable of chasing a Peak Immortal King expert like a dog and unifying the entire Lower Heaven Region, be provoked by two small Void Immortals like them?

If it weren't for the Eastern China Immortal King repeatedly assuring them that Ye Bufan was dead, even with ten thousand guts, they wouldn't dare to cause trouble at his home.

And to even try to snatch his wife, just thinking about it now made their hearts tremble.

Now, seeing his return as a King, the two were completely scared out of their wits, not even having the courage to escape.

Ye Bufan glanced at the two, his expression instantly turning cold; daring to lay hands on his family was a grave taboo and had touched his reverse scale.

"Young Master Ye, spare our lives! This was all the Eastern China Immortal King's doing; it has nothing to do with us…"

"Yes, Ye Yixian, don't blame us, really don't blame us, we are just small figures, we had no choice…"

The two spoke while continuously kowtowing for mercy, not daring to use any protective Immortal Qi, their heads hitting the ground until they bled, yet they did not hesitate for a moment.

Ye Bufan had no pity for such people; he reached out and pressed on their Baihui acupoint, performing the Soul Searching Technique.

A moment later, he retracted his right hand, and two fireballs shot out, instantly reducing the two to nothingness.

At this moment, his expression was incredibly grim, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

Duanmu Yun Chong, this guy was so despicable as to harm his family; it seemed he had to eliminate this Old Man to prevent future trouble.

The surrounding crowd watched, dumbfounded; they had expected a great battle, but it was resolved so easily.

"Little fellow, what exactly is going on? They seem to be very afraid of you!"

Xuanyuan Zhantian pulled Ye Bufan back from his daze, the murderous intent on his face gradually fading.

"Nothing, it's just that they are too weak."

After Ye Bufan finished speaking, he waved his hand, releasing all the Restrictions that had sealed Gu Qingcheng and the others.

"Xiao Fan, you're finally back…"

"Ye Dage, I missed you so much!"

These people swarmed forward, surrounding Ye Bufan in the center, pouring out their longing.

Seeing this scene, Xuanyuan Zhantian shook his head and then curled his lips.

"Does this guy finding so many women not affect the speed of drawing his sword?"

Fanghua checked his injuries, confirming that there was nothing serious, and glared at him fiercely.

"You still have the nerve to say that? If it weren't for Ye Yixian returning in time, your old life would be gone."

Xuanyuan Zhantian chuckled, "Does that mean my strength isn't enough because I have too few women? It seems I need to find a few more in the future!"

Fanghua looked at him indifferently, then her gaze fell to his lower abdomen: "Do you dare?"

"No, I don't dare, of course I don't dare!"

Xuanyuan Zhantian looked embarrassed, quickly changing the subject and calling out to Ye Bufan: "Little fellow, you can be intimate later; the Old Man has something to ask you!"

"You all wait for me first!"

Under the reluctant gazes of the many women, Ye Bufan walked back and sat down with Xuanyuan Zhantian and his wife on a long bench under the rockery nearby.

"Speak, what do you want to ask?"

Xuanyuan Zhantian chuckled, "Little fellow, you've returned from the Immortal Realm, right? Did you see Linglong? How is my daughter doing now?"

Ye Bufan said, "Don't worry, your daughter is doing very well."

"Really? That's wonderful!"

Upon receiving this news, Xuanyuan Zhantian and his wife were beaming with joy, their anxious hearts finally settling down.

"Then my daughter…"

The Old Man was about to ask further, but Ye Bufan raised his hand to stop him.

As the saying goes, a child traveling a thousand miles worries its mother; if he let the couple keep asking, it would probably take a long time to finish.

"No need to ask; I'll tell you everything from beginning to end."

He recounted everything that happened to Xuan Yuan Linglong after her Ascension, until she was finally by his side.

"What, Geng Junsheng, that bastard, how dare he treat my daughter like that!"

Although the matter was in the past, after hearing it, Xuanyuan Zhantian was still furious, turning to glare fiercely at Fanghua.

"It's all your woman's narrow-mindedness! Back then, I said I wouldn't take him as a disciple, but you insisted on speaking good words for him. Now look, we've taken in a wolf in sheep's clothing, a white-eyed wolf, and almost killed our daughter."

"I… I didn't know he was such a beast…"

Fanghua looked embarrassed; she had indeed been deceived by Geng Junsheng's sweet words back then, forcing Xuanyuan Zhantian to take such a disciple.

Ye Bufan quickly advised, "Forget it, what's past is past.

Now Linglong is fine, and Geng Junsheng has also been cut into a thousand pieces; there's no need to dwell on these matters anymore."

"Brother Ye, the Old Man here thanks you again for your great kindness."

Xuanyuan Zhantian was filled with gratitude, and as he spoke, he was about to kneel again, but Ye Bufan reached out and helped him up.

"Old Brother, you're too polite; what's there to thank between us? Haven't you also helped me greatly this time?

You saved sixteen of my women; I saved your one daughter. By calculation, I'm still the one who benefited from you."

"That's different; Linglong is our lifeblood. Your saving her is the greatest gift to us, husband and wife."

Xuanyuan Zhantian said, his small eyes darting around, a cunning smile forming at the corner of his lips.

"For so many years, my wife and I have never owed anyone such a great kindness, and we can't repay it.

How about this, we'll marry Linglong to you as your wife; that way, we won't owe you a favor."

At this point, he turned to look at Fanghua: "Old woman, what do you think of my idea?"

Fanghua was stunned for a moment, then nodded repeatedly.

"Not bad, not bad. This favor is too great, and we can't repay it; we can only let our daughter offer herself."

Ye Bufan looked astonished, then quickly waved his hands: "This won't do, this isn't appropriate. I don't need your thanks; these are all things that should be done."

"What's inappropriate about it? Our Linglong is pure and untouched; she's never been touched by a man in her life.

You are the only exception; if she doesn't marry you, who will she marry?"

Ye Bufan was a bit confused, "I say, Old Man, when did I ever touch Linglong?"

Xuanyuan Zhantian chuckled, "Boy, do you want to deny it? My daughter's Physical Body was created by you; when do you say you touched her?"

"I…"

Ye Bufan had clearly underestimated the Old Man's shamelessness and was speechless for a moment.

Xuanyuan Zhantian burst into laughter: "This matter is happily decided! From now on, you are my son-in-law!"
