Chapter 505: Chapter 449 Turnaround Six_2

Yan forced a bitter smile, "You might not know, but the Ye Family has suffered greatly because of your incident. Old Master Ye has been angered to the brink, barely holding onto his last breath, and is now residing in the 301 Hospital, kept alive by old ginseng. He won’t last many more days."

"Uh..."

Ye Fan had been unaware of this, and hearing it from Yan Yi, he was greatly shaken.

"You should be quite clear about what Old Master Ye means to the Ye Family. Once he passes away, the Ye Family will decline, and your father’s path to the top will become as difficult as ascending to the heavens!"

Seeing Ye Fan’s reaction, Yan continued, "Even if we clear your name, it’s just fooling the public, not the people above—it’s no different from trying to deceive them with superficial tricks."

"If I could extend Old Master Ye’s life, then my father’s ascent to the top wouldn’t be a problem, right?" Ye Fan said, astonishingly.

"Extend life?"

Yan’s pupils slightly dilated with surprise and suspicion. He looked at Ye Fan, "Although you have an Extremely Yang Body and possess the extremely precious Pure Yang Qi, which can cure all diseases, Old Master Ye is not sick, but at the end of his life! Natural death. Even if you improve his constitution with Pure Yang Qi, it will be of no help!"

"You must have heard of the ’Heaven-defying Fate Changing’ magic, haven’t you?" Ye Fan said.

"You know the ’Heaven-defying Fate Changing’ skill?"

Yan looked at Ye Fan in astonishment. Then thinking of Chu Xuanji’s mastery in various domains, he reminded, "Xuanji must have figured out this magic from the Ancient Books and taught you. But let me warn you, Heaven-defying Fate Changing is the most unpredictable and bizarre skill between heaven and earth. It not only requires a huge amount of Essence Stones to connect with heaven and earth, but the person who sets up the array could also face Heaven’s Punishment. They must have an extremely powerful Consciousness, otherwise, they will face complete destruction."

"I know."

Ye Fan nodded and said, "Besides, I also know that even if the person withstands Heaven’s Punishment and succeeds in Heaven-defying Fate Changing, they will do so at the cost of depleting their own life, resulting in severe damage to their Primordial Qi. And according to the Ancient Books, it seems that no one whose life has been extended in such a manner has lived more than one year afterward."

"Exactly!"

Yan nodded and said, "If that’s the case, even if you can perform Heaven-defying Fate Changing, sacrificing your own life and depleting Primordial Qi to extend Old Master Ye’s life, it still won’t change the overall situation—three years from now is when the real power struggle will be decided!"

"What if I managed to concoct the Lifespan Extension Pill?" Ye Fan asked again.

"——"

Yan was speechless once more.

Just like Heaven-defying Fate Changing, the Lifespan Extension Pill is also mentioned in the Ancient Books.

According to the records, in ancient times, powerful Alchemists had successfully concocted the ’Lifespan Extension Pill’, but these are just brief mentions, impossible to verify, and the required Alchemy ingredients are peculiar and rare, some of which simply can’t be found on Earth today.

In such a situation, even though Yan was aware of Ye Fan’s ability to concoct medicine that could eliminate the Destruction virus, he simply couldn’t believe that Ye Fan could concoct the ’Lifespan Extension Pill’, which was beyond the category of High-level Elixirs!

"How about this, I agree to support your father’s rise to power, but given the situation with the Ye Family, I can’t guarantee that your father will successfully ascend. How about that?"

Yan no longer dwelled on the matter of extending Old Master Ye’s life. In his view, Ye Fan’s ideas were wishful thinking.

"Fine!"

Ye Fan thought for a moment, nodded in agreement to Yan’s proposal, but then changing his tone, he said, "After you fulfill these two conditions, I’ll give you the prescription—the virus won’t have re-emerged by then, there’s still time!"

"But what if something happens to you in the meantime?"

Yan might not care about Ye Fan questioning his credibility, but he couldn’t take human survival lightly.

"My master also knows the prescription."

Ye Fan explained, "If something happens to me, as long as you fulfill what you promised me, he will take out the prescription in my stead."

"Damn that Chu Xuanji, playing games with me all along!"

Upon hearing this, Yan was so irritated he ground his teeth, then suddenly thought of something and said, "Right, your father previously went with Elder He to the intensive care unit at the 301 Hospital to visit Old Master Ye. Old Master Ye wanted to sacrifice your father—letting your father actively take the blame, to retreat in order to advance, and vie for the chance for Ye Wenhai to become an elder!"

"Crack!"

For Ye Fan, risking his own life to save Old Master Ye’s was entirely to assist Ye Wenhao’s climb to power. Hearing Yan saying this, he became furious, his face turning pale with rage, and his hands clenched so tightly they made a cracking sound.

"Don’t be hasty. My men have been watching in the hospital, and your father hasn’t gone to confess yet. But just to be safe, you should contact him first, tell him—if he confesses first, I won’t be able to clear your names." Yan reminded him.

Upon hearing that, Ye Fan was jolted awake and immediately had Yan contact Ye Wenhao.

Meanwhile.

In ICU of the 301 Hospital, inside the special care unit where Old Sir Ye was staying.

Old Master Ye had been put back on the ventilator, lying motionless in bed.

Ye Wenhao knelt before the sickbed, holding Old Sir Ye’s withered hand, his face dull and lifeless.

Ye Zhen stood by the window, watching the sun setting, his expression grave.

"Your grandfather’s condition is very unstable, he could leave us at any moment. While he still breathes, you should go and confess now—this might make some people more inclined to compromise to the greatest extent!" Ye Zhen turned his gaze away from the window and spoke to Ye Wenhao.

"Okay."

Ye Wenhao replied softly, letting go of Old Master Ye’s hand and slowly stood up, heading towards the door.

"Buzz~"

At that moment, Ye Zhen’s private cell phone began to vibrate.

"Hello."

Glancing down at it, Ye Zhen saw it was a call from Yan and answered it directly.

"Ye XX, is Ye Wenhao with you?"

"Yes, what’s up?"

"Can you let him take the phone, please?"

Yan thought it over but didn’t mention that Ye Fan wanted to prolong Old Master Ye’s life. Instead, he pretended he needed to speak with Ye Wenhao.

"Okay."

Ye Zhen agreed and called out to Ye Wenhao, who was about to leave the ICU: "It’s a call from Yan, he wants to talk to you."

Ye Wenhao’s footsteps halted, and he turned around mechanically, approaching Ye Zhen to take the phone, his voice hoarse as he said, "Hello, Leader Yan."

"Dad, it’s me!"

Ye Fan’s voice, transmitted perfectly via the cell phone, reached Ye Wenhao’s ears.

Xiao Fan?!

Ye Wenhao was startled, surprise flooding his expressionless face. The previously dull eyes suddenly lit up, revitalizing him instantly.

"Dad, I’m on my way to the 301 Hospital. You must not admit to anything before I get there!" While Ye Wenhao was still in shock, Ye Fan rapidly continued, "I’ll tell you the details when I arrive at the hospital."

"Xiao... Xiao Fan, are you okay?"

Ye Wenhao snapped out of it, his mind a mess, still uncertain about the play Ye Fan was performing.

"Dad, some people have had enough of their fun; it’s time for our counterattack!"

Ye Fan closed his eyes momentarily, calming his emotions, then whispered lightly, "After today, I will make sure everyone knows, no one can stop you from reaching the pinnacle!!"
