Chapter 3920: Childhood Sweethearts
Hearing about so many rewards, Ye Bufan felt relieved.
According to his previous estimation, twenty million High Grade celestial crystals should be about right.
"With so many rewards, Brother Jing still wants to recommend me.
It seems you and Fairy Lan Qi'er have a very unusual relationship."
Upon hearing this, Jing Buyun, who was always forthright, blushed.
"That's nothing.
We just grew up together, childhood friends!"
Ye Bufan chuckled, "So you two are childhood sweethearts."
Jing Buyun gave an awkward laugh but said nothing more.
Several hours passed as they chatted, and soon, a massive city appeared in the Void Realm.
Lieyuan City, a stronghold for numerous Immortals exploring the Hunter's Fate Starfield, also served as a supply base and trading market.
The entire city was incredibly vast, resembling a monstrous Void Realm beast suspended in the air, exuding immense Aura.
As they flew, the Spiritual Qi became increasingly dense, reaching an extreme concentration near the city, even denser than Yuangu City in the Middle Heaven Region.
No wonder middle-grade celestial crystals were considered worthless here; under such concentrated Spiritual Qi, their utility was truly minimal.
According to Jing Buyun, this was merely the outskirts of the Upper Heaven Domain, far from comparable to the great Sects of Supreme Saint Heaven.
Ye Tian leaned into Ye Bufan's ear, "Big Brother, I feel the rules suppressing me are gone, and the Breakthrough Bottleneck is loosening."
"That's good news.
I'll help you Breakthrough when we find an opportunity."
Ye Bufan was delighted by this news.
If Ye Tian could first step into the Immortal Emperor Realm, it would add to his confidence.
Crucially, he had previously used the Demon Refining Bottle in the Middle Heaven Region to absorb a lot of extremely dense Devilish Qi and refined it into Medicinal Pills.
These were highly beneficial for Ye Tian.
However, they were useless in the Middle Heaven Region, as no matter how much he consumed, it wouldn't work under the suppression of the rules.
But here, it was completely different; without the suppression of the Heaven and Earth rules, he could easily Breakthrough the Immortal Venerable Bottleneck if he found the right opportunity.
If it weren't for the White-Clothed Woman's situation, he might have directly taken Ye Tian to find a suitable place to Breakthrough.
But now, it was truly impossible; the priority was to rescue her first.
As they drew closer to Lieyuan City, Jing Buyun put away his flying Immortal Artifact, and everyone walked through the Void Realm towards it.
The city gate was massive and magnificent, guarded by over a dozen sentries, each at the Immortal King Realm.
An Immortal King was already a hegemon in the Lower Heaven Region, yet here, they were merely gatekeepers, showing the vast difference in strength.
As they approached, just as they were about to enter the city, a dozen figures suddenly flew out from within.
Leading them was a White-Clothed Young man, none other than Sun Mangong, who had previously escaped.
He had a furious look on his face, accompanied by a dozen people, each at the Immortal Reverent Peak.
The middle-aged scholar leading them had an even stronger Aura, comparable to Ye Tian, having already reached the Half-Step Immortal Emperor Realm.
It turned out that after suffering a great loss at Ye Bufan's hands and nearly losing his life, he had used a Talisman to escape.
As the Young Master of the Ba Xian Chamber of Commerce, an arrogant and overbearing scion, how could he swallow such a humiliation?
So, upon his return, he immediately found Min Zeshi, the head steward of the Chamber of Commerce, and gathered a dozen Immortal Venerable experts, immediately rushing out of the city, intending to seek revenge on Ye Bufan.
"Young Master, what is the other party's background?
Perhaps we should wait for the Guild Master to return and discuss it first."
Min Zeshi was a very cautious person; he had heard that the Young man had defeated the people Sun Mangong brought with him at such a young age, and his strength had already reached the Immortal Reverent Peak.
Such a person might have a significant background, and any action should be taken with caution after understanding the situation.
But Sun Mangong was filled with rage and couldn't wait.
"What background could he have?
He's probably just some bumpkin who popped up from nowhere!
I've never seen him before, so he can't have any major background.
Just kill him for me; I'll take responsibility for any problems."
"This…"
Min Zeshi felt that things might not be so simple, but facing this Young Master, the future heir of the Ba Xian Chamber of Commerce, he couldn't say much.
Just then, Sun Mangong looked up and happened to see Ye Bufan and the others approaching.
In fact, it was hard not to see them; after all, Jin Meier and the others were simply too eye-catching, belonging to the kind that would turn heads wherever they went, and there were so many of them at once.
"Boy, you dare to come here!"
Sun Mangong's eyes were bloodshot; he raised a hand and pointed, "Head Steward, that's the boy, he's the one who killed our Ba Xian Chamber of Commerce's people."
Min Zeshi looked in the direction of his finger and saw that the Young man leading them had an extraordinary Aura, but he was unfamiliar, having never seen him before.
As the head steward of one of the four major Chamber of Commerce, he was well aware of who could not be offended and which forces could not be provoked.
But after thinking for a long time, he couldn't figure out which major force the other party came from, and his heart immediately felt much more at ease.
If he was just an utterly unknown junior, killing him was nothing in the Hunter's Fate Starfield.
"Boy, what audacity, to dare to lay hands on our Young Master!"
Then he waved his hand, and a dozen Immortal Reverent Peak experts swarmed forward, trapping Ye Bufan and the others in the center.
As one of the four major Chamber of Commerce in Lieyuan City, military might was naturally indispensable.
These individuals were the core strength of the Ba Xian Chamber of Commerce, each battle-hardened and incredibly powerful.
"What are you doing?
I'd like to see who dares to touch my friend!"
With an angry roar, Jing Buyun flashed and blocked Ye Bufan.
Min Zeshi's attention had been on Ye Bufan and the others, and only then did he notice the Young Master of the Cang Hai Chamber of Commerce standing nearby.
He frowned slightly; if the other party had no background, a single command would have resolved the situation.
But this was clearly not possible; the Cang Hai Chamber of Commerce's strength was not inferior to the Ba Xian Chamber of Commerce, and Jing Buyun's own reputation surpassed Sun Mangong's.
He hesitated; it was not appropriate for him, as a steward, to step forward in this situation.
In fact, he didn't even need to speak; Sun Mangong, standing behind him, stepped forward.
"Jing Buyun, what are you doing?
What business is this of yours?"
As Young Masters of the four major Chamber of Commerce, the two were very familiar with each other, and their relationship had never been good.
Jing Buyun patted Ye Bufan's shoulder, "This is my brother; whoever touches him is my enemy!"
"He is my enemy; I will kill him today!"
Sun Mangong roared, "Jing Buyun, are you trying to be my enemy?"
"Your enemy?
Do you think you're worthy?"
Jing Buyun curled his lip, full of disdain, "For so many years, you've relied on your Family's influence, afraid of death, bullying men and women, doing only despicable and lewd things.
Yet you yourself are nothing; at this age, you're still just an Immortal Reverent Peak.
A piece of trash like you is neither worthy of being my enemy nor my opponent!"
He was originally a very forthright person, hating evil as if it were his personal enemy.
His words were blunt, directly trampling the other party's dignity underfoot.
"You… you… how dare you insult me like that!"
Sun Mangong's face turned ashen with rage, his eyes spitting fire, and he waved a hand behind him, "Attack, kill them all for me!"
