Chapter 464: Chapter 412: Blessing and Disaster Go Hand in Hand_2

"I don’t know either."

Ye Fan shrugged his shoulders, then seeing Ye Wenhao deep in thought, he said with a helpless smile, "Dad, since we can’t figure it out, let’s not waste our brain cells on it. You should hurry up and take these three plant essences!"

"Alright."

This time, Ye Wenhao did not refuse. Firstly, the essence of his power was exhausted and it would take a long time to recover it through meditation cultivation. More importantly, he knew that Ye Fan had already taken three plant essences and could no longer improve his strength by absorbing the essence of heaven and earth primordial qi within them.

Now that Ye Fan had restored his life-bound essence blood, those plant essences were basically useless to him.

Watching Ye Wenhao take the three plant essences and consume them one after another, Ye Fan felt relieved. He then secretly decided that once Ye Wenhao had fully absorbed the essence of heaven and earth primordial qi from the plant essences, he would transfer some of the essence flowing from the Crimson Golden Crown to Ye Wenhao, until Ye Wenhao’s essence of power was fully restored!

Clearly... in his heart, increasing his own strength was far less important than his father recovering his spent essence of power!

Moreover, in his opinion, since the crimson Gold token harbored the souls of two ancient supreme strongmen, it was certainly extraordinary, and the amount of heaven and earth essence transformed by the qi current within the token should be considerable!

"Buzz~"

Later, just as Ye Fan was about to think of a perfect excuse, the vibration from his cellphone suddenly rang out.

"Dad, your phone."

Upon hearing the sound, Ye Fan reminded him—his own cellphone had been lost during the escape, which was why Ye Wenhao calling Ye Fan’s phone had gone unanswered en route to this location.

Hearing the phone’s vibration and Ye Fan’s reminder, Ye Wenhao paused his absorption of the heaven and earth essence from the plant essences, opened his eyes, and took out his cellphone from his pocket.

"It’s your aunt."

Seeing the incoming call from Chu Ji, Ye Wenhao first said to Ye Fan before answering, "Hello."

"Brother-in-law, I’ve been trying to reach Xiao Fan, but no one’s answering. What’s going on? Are you with him?" As the call connected, Chu Ji was the first to speak, her voice filled with concern.

Hearing Chu Ji’s words, Ye Wenhao gave a wry smile, gestured with his phone, and signaled to Ye Fan whether he wanted to take over the call.

Ye Fan decisively shook his head; he did not want to be teased—or more accurately, flirted with—by Chu Ji in front of his father.

"It’s like this..."

Seeing Ye Fan shake his head, Ye Wenhao held the phone and explained the situation.

"What... What?"

Seconds later, Chu Ji interrupted Ye Wenhao in shock, "Are you saying Xiao Fan was pursued by half-step Gang Qi realm masters sent by the Dark Council, the Giant Axe Organization, and the Yakuza, and lost his phone?"

"Yes."

"And where is he??"

Chu Ji’s heart leaped to her throat, and she held her breath. In her view, with Ye Fan’s ability, encountering even one half-step Gang Qi realm master, let alone three, would have spelled his doom.

"Right beside me."

Ye Wenhao gave an unexpected reply.

"What exactly happened??"

Once again hearing Ye Wenhao’s words, Chu Ji first breathed a sigh of relief, then asked, full of curiosity.

"Xiao Fan himself killed a half-step Gang Qi realm martial artist during the escape, I arrived later and killed another, and then our father and son together killed another one." Ye Wenhao briefly answered.

"Uh..."

This time, Chu Ji was completely stunned by Ye Wenhao’s words. Over the phone, she stood frozen in place, uttering incoherently, "You... you’re saying Xiao Fan killed a half-step Gang Qi realm master? How is that possible?? How did he do it???"

"I don’t know either, you’ll have to ask him for the details," Ye Wenhao said with a wry smile; he also didn’t know how Ye Fan had accomplished it and was also curious but hadn’t had the chance to ask yet.

"Eek~"

Chu Ji gasped sharply, her voice raising, "Brother-in-law, what are you waiting for? Why aren’t you handing the phone to him yet?!"

"Your aunt wants you to take the call." Ye Wenhao said with a wry smile as he handed the phone to Ye Fan.

Seeing this, Ye Fan reluctantly took the phone and spoke first, "Aunt..."

"Darling, your father said you were pursued by three half-step Gang Qi realm masters, not only did you survive, you even killed one of the half-step Gang Qi realm masters—how did you do it??" Chu Ji interrupted Ye Fan, asking eagerly.

"Hmm, at that time, the three of them were separated," Ye Fan said.

"Even so, you should be thankful to have escaped with your life, how could you possibly kill a Half-step Gang Qi realm master? You do know you are only at the Innate Great Success Realm, right? Even if you have dual cultivation of magic and martial arts, plus some special reasons, at most you could only contend with an Innate Perfection Master," Chu Ji said anxiously, wishing she could know the outcome immediately.

"At that time, I was driven into a desperate situation and then I unleashed my potential, using Mind Power Attacks in a do-or-die effort. As luck would have it, I nearly gathered all of my mind power to launch the attack, which ultimately caused a qualitative change through a quantitative change, injuring the guy’s consciousness."

Ye Fan explained, "Then, I seized the opportunity to pierce his throat with the Xuanye Flying Blade."

"What do you mean by ’unleashing potential’ and launching an attack by ’gathering all your mind power’? I’ve never heard of such a skill or magic before," Chu Ji’s eyes widened as if she was listening to a fantasy tale.

"——"

Ye Fan was at a loss for words, pondering how to respond.

"Little brat, you’re pulling my leg, aren’t you? Fess up, how did you really do it?" Chu Ji was completely frantic, as if she would rush to Southeast Asia right away to grab Ye Fan by the collar and demand a clear explanation.

"I bluffed it," Ye Fan said, not knowing how else to explain, and simply put it.

"Bluffed it?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Ji was stunned for several seconds before she said, "Kid, do you think Half-step Gang Qi realm masters are just any Tom, Dick, or Harry, that you can kill them by simply bluffing?"

"I really did bluff it," Ye Fan said, almost in tears. He had struck by sheer fluke with an attack similar to a Forbidden Technique, and as for how he managed to do it, he was completely clueless.

"——"

This time, it was Chu Ji who was speechless.

Hmm?

Later, without waiting for Chu Ji to say anything more, Ye Wenhao and Ye Fan, father and son, almost simultaneously sensed four presences, and they immediately confirmed that the owners of these presences were members of the Yanhuang Organization.

Besides that, they also noticed six lights at the foot of the mountain, as three cars were speeding toward the mountain.

"Aunt, there are still things to take care of here, will talk later," Ye Fan said as he raised an eyebrow and hung up the phone.

With a thoughtful expression, Ye Wenhao said, "It should be Yan Lei bringing people over."

"Yan Lei?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan had a bad feeling.

"Hmm."

Ye Wenhao continued with furrowed brows, "Earlier, after you came to the Tiger Gang’s headquarters alone, I was a bit worried and tried to call you, but couldn’t get through. Just as I was concerned about your safety, I suddenly received a call from Yan Lei. He told me over the phone that three Half-step Gang Qi realm masters had infiltrated the Tiger Gang’s headquarters, so I rushed over non-stop."

"Dad, based on the information we have, it can be inferred that the three major forces must have reached some kind of agreement with Chen Fei Lin to send three Half-step Gang Qi realm masters to Southeast Asia," Ye Fan analyzed seriously, frowning. "In addition to that, after I reached the villa in the mountain villa, Taihu, the Tiger Gang’s boss, tried to trick me into confessing to the killing of the heads of the three organizations in Southeast Asia Special Zone, and he secretly used miniature surveillance devices."

"Oh?"

Ye Wenhao’s expression changed, a bad feeling emerging in his heart.

"I believe Chen Feilian, the bastard, didn’t expect me to escape from the brink of death. According to his plan, he mostly wanted to get evidence of my violation of Yanhuang Organization’s rules and secretly manipulating the underworld of Southeast Asia, before using the three masters to kill me."

Ye Fan spoke more and more convinced of his own guess, "And based on what you said, Yan Lei made a point of informing you, mostly wanting you to face the three masters at the headquarters, and even if you didn’t die, it would consolidate the evidence that you were involved in exploiting the underworld of Southeast Asia with me. His coming here now can further prove this point—if he claims to be unaware, I absolutely don’t believe it!"

"It seems, Yan Lei really is a man of the Bai Family Faction."

Ye Wenhao agreed with Ye Fan’s deduction, his eyes flashing with cold light.

"No matter if he is of the Bai Family Faction or is secretly colluding with Chen Feilian, one thing is certain, we’ve been schemed against by Chen Feilian and the Bai Family again!"

As he spoke, Ye Fan’s brows were tightly knotted, his reason telling him: this matter is far from over!
