Chapter 3751: All Beggars

ch.Regardless of anything else, Lingxiao Academy has been reorganized now. Although there are a few fewer people, it's considered complete. Logically speaking, we should celebrate properly.But before,...Zhao Qinglian was full of doubts, but he dared not show it in the slightest, let alone let anyone know that his Zhao family was hunting down Ye Bufan.

Following the crowd back to Yuangu City, I entered the inn and immediately took out my communication jade talisman to contact Zhao Xingkong and the others.

But he sent dozens of messages in a row, all like stones cast into the sea, without a single reply.

Zhao Xinfeng accompanied him, and he contacted the dozen or so Immortal King-level subordinates again, but the result was the same.

Zhao Qinglian's face darkened: "What's going on Did they all encounter some danger Was there an accident"

Zhao Xinfeng's face was full of disbelief: "How is this possible That Ye kid is just a Daluo Immortal. Killing him is like crushing an ant, how could there be an accident"

Zhao Qinglian said: "You go and check, where is that kid surnamed Ye now, is he also missing"

"Yes!"

Zhao Xinfeng responded with a sound and ran outside, back in a short time.

The Zhao family's intelligence system was already very powerful, and with Ye Bufan having returned to the city, it wouldn't be difficult at all to find him.

"Elder, that boy returned to Yuangu City not long ago. He is currently at the inn drinking with his women."

Yè Búfán's return to Yuangu City was completely unexpected. Zhào Qīnglián frowned, "When did you come back"

"I had it checked. It took about a quarter of an hour, right around the time all of you elders left the city."

Zhaoxingfeng is very meticulous in his work and has collected all the relevant information clearly.

Zhao Qinglian asked again, "How are the others Are they injured or anything special"

"No, perfectly fine, very content."

Zhao Xinfeng gritted his teeth as he spoke, hating the other party so much that he wished he could kill them immediately. But now that people from his own family were gone, the other party returned unharmed.

"This kid actually came back, and he's alive and unharmed. How is this possible"

Zhao Qinglian paced back and forth in the room, clearly shaken by the news.

Originally, I thought Ye Bufan had escaped Yuan Gu City with the Immortal Crystal. Even if he hadn't escaped, the people I sent out wouldn't have let him return alive.

And as far as he knew, it wasn't just the Zhao family involved, but also the Four Directions Sword Sect and the Han family. With such a formidable force, how could the other party possibly survive

Zhao Xingfeng said, "Elder, I think that kid just got lucky and escaped our three families' pursuit. Otherwise, even if he was alive, he wouldn't be unscathed."

"That's possible."

Zhao Qinglian pondered for a while and finally came up with an answer.

"That kid must have used some special means to escape the joint pursuit of the three families, getting his life back. It just so happened that Xing Kong and they collided with a powerful cultivator crossing the tribulation."

Zhao Xingfeng looked utterly astonished: "Elder, are you saying that my senior brothers died at the hands of that powerful being"

That should be it.

Zhao Qinglian nodded, "This time in order to avoid too much commotion, the three of us didn't send out our strongest experts."

"It is said that even the three Great Immortals guarded it, along with over twenty Immortal Kings. Unless a truly super-powerful expert appeared, it would be impossible for them all to fall."

"This... Senior Brother and the others' luck is really too bad."

Although Zhao Xinfeng was shocked, he accepted the answer.

It's true, he couldn't believe that a Great Luo Immortal could possibly defeat three factions joining forces, let alone survive without a single casualty.

"Oh!"

Zhao Qinglian let out a long sigh, but there was nothing he could do. The might of that great being crossing the tribulation was something even he dared not provoke.

"It seems that boy has quite the luck, even running into something like this."

Zhao Xingfeng suddenly changed his expression: "Elder, we bought all the fairy crystals from the gambling den for Han Ling Duan to win. Now that this Ye kid is back, won't there be a risk"

Zhao Qinglian was stunned for a moment, obviously the shock was too great, and she forgot about it.

He pondered for a moment: "It should be fine, that kid is just a Daluo Immortal, even if he comes back so what."

Han Ling Duan was undoubtedly at the peak of the Immortal King realm, and Ye Bufan could never be his match no matter what.

Zhao Xingfeng nodded. "The elder is right."

Zha Qinglian hesitated for a moment: "But it's still best to be careful. You should go notify the gambling den and adjust the odds back to 10 to 1."

Besides, all bets involving Jian Juechen and Han Lingkuang's gambling match have been suspended and temporarily prohibited.

"Yes!"

Zhao Xingfeng responded with a sound, then turned and ran out.

On the other hand, both the Sifang Jianpai and the Han family are in a similar situation to the Zhao family. They have been unable to contact their missing disciples no matter what they do.

In the end, the core members gathered together, discussed it for a while, and all deduced that it was most likely killed by the powerful being who crossed the tribulation.

But the situation is somewhat different, as the Zhao family has already been eliminated, so it's not involved in the top 100 competition.

But the Si Fang Jian Pai and Han Family are different, whether it is Han Lingkuang or Jian Juechen, they have already participated in the Hundred Strong Contention's lottery, and will be taking the stage in two days.

Now that everyone is gone, there's no point in comparing. It's a sure loss.

In this case, both parties made the same decision. They first shut down the betting and then sent people out to search everywhere, hoping to bring the person back before the competition.

The outcome is already decided; these people won't be found, not in two days, nor even in two hundred years.

Inside the Dragon King's Palace, Ye Bufan lay quietly on Dragon King Island, frantically absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy to replenish his immortal yuan.

This is his world, and things heal here much faster than out there.

Furthermore, with his cultivation reaching the early stage of Immortal King, the speed at which his immortal essence circulated increased countless times.

In less than half a quarter of an hour, his cultivation had recovered seven or eight points, and he sat back up again.

After he recovered, the first thing he did was count his loot.

This time, we seized over twenty storage rings. Looking at them one by one, I was a little disappointed.

These people's fairy crystals together only amount to about five million, much less than expected.

Ye Bufan glanced at them and said, “How come you’re all poor ghosts!”

If Jian Juechen and the others were still alive, they would probably spit blood on the spot hearing this.

It's already a lot to have tens of thousands of Xianjing in a ring, you know After all, they are immortals too, they need to cultivate and consume energy. It's impossible for them to just casually take out millions!

Before, when I attended the auction, I represented my family and sect. The immortal crystals I carried were also from my family. After the auction ended, they had all been turned in.

In their ordinary lives, they wouldn't possess more than a few hundred thousand dollars worth of personal belongings.

To put it simply, Ye Bufan has been making money too easily lately. He thinks that all these core children of big families should be rolling in wealth.

Putting the spirit crystals away, he retrieved the storage ring from the black-clad assassin.

The result was even more unexpected, containing only a few hundred pieces of medium-grade Xianjing scattered inside.

The rest are handkerchiefs, invisibility cloaks, and all sorts of weapons. They're all for assassination.

Some he knew, some he had never seen before.

It seems these assassins were prepared to die before they acted, and didn't bring their Immortal Crystals or treasures with them.

Ye Bufan simply glanced through them and found a black identity token among the many items.

One side reads "Shadow Gate," and the other "Death Blow."le in his hand."My god, this young man is actually a real alchemist...""Amazing, I heard that alchemists take at least a few hours to refine a batch of pills, some even days. How come he's so fast""I...
