Chapter 4234: Killing Yuan Zun

Pan Cheng looked utterly bewildered, clearly not expecting such a reaction from her. He had considered that Yuhua Ling might refuse him, but he never imagined she would be so unyielding.

After all, he was the Sect Master's son. Didn't she consider the consequences? Coming back to his senses, he immediately flew into a rage: "You little slut, you'd better think this through! If you offend Young Master, I guarantee you won't get a single chaotic sacred crystal in Piaoxiang Valley. Just wait to become a cripple!"

"Crippled, are you talking about yourself?" Yuhua Ling sneered, then slapped him hard across the face.

This caught everyone off guard. No one expected Yuhua Ling to make a move, nor did they expect her to be so strong.

Pan Cheng was spun around like a top for more than ten circles by the blow. When he finally recovered, he stared at Yuhua Ling as if he had seen a ghost, his face full of disbelief.

As the Sect Master's son, he naturally knew the difference between a Yuan Immortal and a Yuan Venerable. The powerful aura emanating from Yuhua Ling clearly indicated that she had reached the Yuan Venerable Realm.

"You… you… you actually Broke Through! This is impossible! Absolutely impossible!" It wasn't just him; even the two Yuan Venerable guards beside him reacted the same way.

One should know that Yuhua Ling had only been brought into Piaoxian Valley a few days ago. Even if she was a Genius, it was impossible for her to Break Through to the Yuan Venerable Realm so quickly, especially since her chaotic sacred crystal had been snatched away.

Everything happened too suddenly, completely shocking the three of them, making them temporarily unable to believe what they were seeing was real.

And just as the three of them were momentarily dazed, two figures suddenly appeared behind the two guards: it was Ye Bufan with a Dao Body.

Now, if Yuhua Ling's rapid Breakthrough was attributed to her enjoying abundant resources, it could still be explained as extraordinary talent.

However, if it were known that her Storage Ring had already been taken, then this matter would be impossible to explain, as too many secrets were involved.

Furthermore, Ye Bufan would never allow anyone to threaten his woman within Piaoxiang Valley. So, from the moment Pan Cheng snatched the Storage Ring, these three people were destined to die.

And these two guards were one Yuan Venerable Fourth Grade and one Yuan Venerable Fifth Grade. With his strength, it would be very difficult to resolve them silently, so he devised this plan.

Yuhua Ling suddenly unleashed her strength to attract their attention, while Ye Bufan, hidden in the shadows, took the opportunity to strike.

The Chaos Cultivation Technique was most suitable for stealth and assassination, so the three people in front of him were completely unaware of his appearance. The Hundred Transformations Illusory Sky Metal cut off the Yuan Venerable Fifth Grade's head as easily as slicing tofu.

The remaining Yuan Venerable Fourth Grade was struck by the Dao Body's Extinction God Fist, which shattered his internal organs with one punch. As soon as his Primordial Spirit emerged, it was taken away by the Demon Refining Bottle.

Then, with a thought, both corpses were sent into the Dragon King Palace. Everything happened as fast as lightning; the two guards didn't even know who attacked them until they died.

Moreover, no traces or flaws were left. These two people simply vanished into thin air.

"Ah!" Pan Cheng let out a cry of surprise, sensing something was wrong, only to find that the surrounding space had been completely sealed off by Yuhua Ling's Domain.

His body couldn't move, and not a sound could escape.

"You little slut, don't forget my father is the Sect Master! If you dare touch a single hair on me…" This guy was hysterical, still trying to threaten her, but before he could finish speaking, Ye Bufan grabbed him by the neck and threw him into the Dragon King Palace.

Those two guards had to be dealt with, otherwise, it would easily cause a commotion, but this kid was still useful and it wasn't his time to die yet.

"Wait for me a moment, I'll be right back," Ye Bufan instructed, then also entered the Dragon King Palace.

"What is this place? Who are you?" Pan Cheng looked at Ye Bufan, his voice trembling nervously. As the number one profligate in the Sect, he had always been the one to bully others and had never encountered any danger.

"Don't come over! I'm telling you, my father is the Piaoxiang Valley Master…" Before he could finish speaking, Ye Bufan reached out and grabbed his neck, then performed the Soul Searching Technique.

Now, with his Yuan Venerable Fourth Grade Mental Energy, he completely suppressed a Yuan Immortal. After two or three breaths, he had thoroughly read the other party's memories.

After doing all this, Ye Bufan pierced his throat with a sword, took his Primordial Spirit, collected his Storage Ring, and even took his clothes. His figure flickered, and he left the Dragon King Palace, reappearing before Yuhua Ling.

All of this was done quickly enough to avoid being noticed by others. In fact, this concern was unnecessary; Pan Cheng had already made arrangements outside before entering, so no one would come to this Cultivation room.

Yuhua Ling asked, "What's the next step?" No matter what, the other party was the Sect Master's son, and killing him like this would cause a lot of trouble.

"Don't worry, leave everything to me. If anyone asks, just say what I told you to," Ye Bufan said, then wiped his face, transforming into Pan Cheng's appearance and putting on his clothes.

If not for seeing it with their own eyes, no one would have recognized this fake Young Master. Finally, he summoned two Dao Bodies, disguising them as guards.

"Just focus on your Cultivation; don't worry about anything else," Ye Bufan instructed again, then turned and walked out of the Cultivation room.

This time, he had acquired three Storage Rings, especially Pan Cheng's, which contained quite a few treasures, including Chaos Spiritual Plant, Artifact Refining Materials, and an additional twenty thousand chaotic sacred crystal.

In contrast, the two guards were much poorer, with only two or three hundred each. The Storage Ring that originally belonged to Yuhua Ling was also recovered, containing ten thousand chaotic sacred crystal, which he had no intention of returning, otherwise, her Breakthrough would be even harder to explain.

With so many chaotic sacred crystal and three Divine Essence Pills, it was a fruitful harvest. But Ye Bufan was not satisfied; his own Cultivation required a lot of resources, and since he had the opportunity, he had to seize it tightly and get as much as possible.

After leaving, he didn't return to Cultivate but instead went directly to the Internal Affairs Hall. Piaoxiang Valley, as a large Sect, had five halls and thirteen sub-branches. The Internal Affairs Hall managed finances and internal affairs, so the Hall Master was naturally a lucrative position.

As the Sect Master's most favored son, he had an unobstructed path and went directly to the Hall Master's office.

"Young Master, why have you come?" Hall Master Zhou Ping asked, his face beaming with an exceptionally warm smile upon seeing him.

"Hall Master, I've encountered a small problem here and would like your help." Zhou Ping said fawningly, "Young Master, please speak freely. Whatever you need, I will do my utmost to help." Ye Bufan said, "You know I'm participating in the Saint Spirit Convention this time, and I'll be going into seclusion to attempt a Breakthrough to Yuan Venerable in a few days. I have too few chaotic sacred crystal on hand, and I'm afraid it won't be enough, so I wanted to borrow some from the Hall Master."

"So that's it. No problem, Young Master. Just tell me how much you need?" The Internal Affairs Hall was already a lucrative position, and Zhou Ping usually wanted to curry favor with this favored Young Master. Now that he came to him proactively, he naturally wouldn't be stingy at all.

"You decide how much." Ye Bufan grew up on Earth, and even from watching TV shows, he was extremely familiar with such schemes.

He couldn't say the amount himself, otherwise, asking for too much or too little would be inappropriate.

"A few days ago, I heard my father say that the Sect was going to add an Elder, and I think Hall Master would be very suitable."

"Understood. Here's a small token of my appreciation. Please take it." Zhou Ping said, slipping a Storage Ring into Ye Bufan's palm.
