Chapter 541: Chapter 482: You Won’t Die if You Don’t Seek Death

Swish!

Ye Fan’s words seemed to carry a certain magic, causing Nolan Xuan and the others to look his way.

How could it be him?!

Seeing Ye Fan’s face, which was not exactly familiar but not at all strange, Nolan Xuan was horrified!

As a Martial Arts genius of the Nolan Family, he had seen Ye Fan at the annual Cultivation World auction, and had recently heard of Ye Fan’s deeds. His reputation was indeed thunderous!

Before coming down the mountain, he had wondered which sacred figure dared to provoke on the Nolan Family’s turf, but he had not expected it to be Ye Fan!

"Brother, it’s him! It’s this bastard who hurt me and even threatened to deal with our Nolan Family!"

Unlike Nolan Xuan, Nolan Qi, who had studied in the American Alliance, did not know of Ye Fan’s deeds. Seeing Ye Fan appear, he immediately roared in anger, as if he couldn’t wait to pounce and tear Ye Fan apart.

Ignoring Nolan Qi’s roar, Ye Fan stopped walking, his gaze settling on Nolan Xuan.

"Little Qi!"

Nolan Xuan suddenly snapped back to reality and subconsciously called out to stop Nolan Qi, his gaze towards Ye Fan carrying a trace of timidity.

That’s right...

It was timidity!

Even though this was the Nolan Family’s territory, even though he was the Nolan Family’s Martial Arts genius, yet...facing Ye Fan, he felt fear!

On one hand, everything Ye Fan had done in the secular world was simply too shocking, backed by both the Ye Family and Chu Xuanji, these two mighty mountains, even the Bai Family had suffered successive defeats, not to mention the much weaker Nolan Family?

On the other hand, although Ye Fan was at the Peak of Innate, his Dual Cultivation of Magic and Martial Arts made his Combat Power comparable to that of an Innate Great Perfection Cultivator—the massacre at the headquarters of the Nanqinghong and the challenge at the Hongwu Sect was the best proof!

Competing in Combat Power, he might not win, reliant on backers, he was utterly crushed...

How could this not make Nolan Xuan fearful?

"Brother, what’s wrong with you?"

The words of Nolan Xuan reverberated in his ears. Noticing the timidity in Nolan Xuan’s expressions, Nolan Qi was utterly puzzled.

"Mr. Ye, we have met before at the annual Cultivation World auction, I wonder if you still remember?" Ignoring Nolan Qi, Nolan Xuan paused for a moment and then smiled as he tried to ingratiate himself with Ye Fan.

"Uh..."

Hearing Nolan Xuan’s words again, whether it was Nolan Qi or his classmates, they were all dumbfounded.

Keep in mind, they still vividly remembered Nolan Xuan’s haughty words just a moment ago!

In their view, Nolan Xuan should have swiftly knocked Ye Fan to the ground, not be ingratiating as he was now!

Perhaps due to the huge contrast in Nolan Xuan’s behavior before and after, Nolan Qi and the other six were all wide-eyed, filled with confusion as they looked at Nolan Xuan, seemingly asking: What... what’s going on?

"Little Qi, Mr. Ye is a Ye Family’s Young Master from Beijing, and also taken as a close-door disciple by Master Chu Xuanji. He is upright and highly cultivated, he would not arbitrarily teach you a lesson,"

Ye Fan’s silence brought significant pressure to Nolan Xuan, he endeavored to control his emotions, indirectly revealing Ye Fan’s identity to Nolan Qi, meanwhile conveying his message, "Tell me honestly, how did you provoke Mr. Ye? Why did he take action to chastise you?"

Ye Family’s Young Master from Beijing?

The close-door disciple of Chu Xuanji?!

Hearing Nolan Xuan’s words again, Nolan Qi’s heart trembled violently, his body swayed, and he almost fainted from fear!

Although he was studying in the American Alliance, he knew that the Ye Family, hailed as Huaxia’s number one prominent family, and he knew about Chu Xuanji’s world-saving efforts!

He was well aware that, though the Nolan Family held sway over the Northeast, in the broader scope of Huaxia, they weren’t even considered a prominent family, merely the first tier below the prominent families.

And the Ye Family was undeniably recognized as the foremost prominent family in Huaxia!

The two were simply not on the same level!

And Ye Fan was not only a member of the foremost Ye Family, but also a disciple of Chu Xuanji...

This revelation brought him an indescribable shock.

He almost instinctively moved his gaze away from Nolan Xuan and looked back at Ye Fan.

This moment.

There was no longer any resentment or rage in his gaze, only astonishment!

It wasn’t just Nolan Qi who was alarmed, but also his six classmates.

Although they did not know how powerful the Ye Family in Huaxia was, they were aware of Chu Xuanji’s heroic deeds, subconsciously regarding Chu Xuanji as a saintly figure.

"At this point, are you trying to hide something?"

Seeing that Nolan Qi was dumbstruck with fear, Nolan Xuan intentionally shouted angrily.

At this point, he no longer harbored hopes of avenging Nolan Qi, instead, he could only silently pray that Mr. Ye was magnanimous enough not to take offense at Nolan Qi’s actions and spare both him and Nolan Qi.

"I... I wanted to find a girl in the village to accompany me drinking, but I didn’t know that she was a friend of Mr. Ye."

Nolan Qi suddenly came to his senses, realizing that Ye Fan was not someone the Nolan Family could afford to provoke, his attitude immediately took a 360-degree turn.

"Mr. Ye, earlier Little Qi called and told me he had been injured. I was unaware of the specifics, and I brought him here to discover the truth. Now it seems that it was all my incompetent younger brother’s fault, and also our Nolan Family’s lack of discipline! I thank you for disciplining him!"

Nolan Xuan clasped his hands together, his face no longer showing any arrogance, only a feigned ’apology’.

"Thank you?"

Hearing this, Ye Fan, fully aware of Nolan Xuan’s deep scheming, very tolerant, and highly skilled in pretense, responded with a cold laugh: "If I remember correctly, just now you said you wanted to cripple the person who injured your brother, let your brother personally flay him alive, and then throw him to the mountains to feed the bears—could it be that I misremembered?"

"Uh..."

Nolan Xuan had an embarrassed face but still plucked up the courage, "I’m sorry, Mr. Ye, I didn’t know it was you before."

"If the person standing before you right now wasn’t me, it’s very likely you and your brother would have already killed him, right? Even Elder Miao and Xiu Ling might not have escaped your clutches, correct?"

Ye Fan did not give face as he peeled off Nolan Xuan’s facade layer by layer, forcing him to show his true colors.

"—"

Nolan Xuan was left speechless.

Because.

If what Ye Fan said was true, if the one standing before him wasn’t Ye Fan but a Peak stage of Innate Martial Artist with no powerful backing, he would have made his opponent kneel and beg for mercy long ago, rather than humbly seeking peace as he was now.

"Mr. Ye, you have the belly of a prime minister that can boat a ship, I beg you not to take us ordinary people to heart." Nolan Xuan clasped his hands together, bowed slightly, and put himself in a very low stance.

"Sorry, I am not a prime minister, and my belly can’t carry a ship," Ye Fan said expressionlessly: "Repay kindness with kindness, and revenge for revenge—that is my way of handling things."

"You bastard, apologize to Mr. Ye now!"

Seeing that Ye Fan was relentless, Nolan Xuan grew uneasy; amidst his unease, he turned and shouted at Nolan Qi.

"I... I’m sorry, Mr. Ye!"

Faced with Nolan Xuan’s scolding, Nolan Qi’s face paled in fear as he hurriedly bowed to apologize.

"I recall you once demanded that I sever my own limbs to apologize, or else, even if I fled to the ends of the earth, the Nolan Family would never let me go, right?" Ye Fan narrowed his eyes, his face devoid of any mercy.

Click!

Nolan Qi’s heart trembled, and he did not dare to make a sound, his body completely stiff.

"Mr. Ye... Little Qi is young and hot-headed, he doesn’t understand things well..." Nolan Xuan tried to smooth things over with a pleasing smile.

"What about you?" Ye Fan interrupted coldly.

"—"

Nolan Xuan was once again left speechless, his expression growing more solemn.

He had heard that Ye Fan was always swift in both gratitude and revenge, dealing tit for tat; only now did he realize that Ye Fan was even more domineering than the rumors!

"I give you two choices. First, destroy your Dantian and take them away! Second, I’ll do it for you!" As if to confirm Nolan Xuan’s judgment, Ye Fan spoke, his tone leaving no room for doubt.

Whoosh!

At the cold sound of Ye Fan’s words ringing in their ears, Nolan Xuan and the others’ faces instantly turned pale!

Among them, Nolan Qi and his six classmates all nervously turned their eyes toward Nolan Xuan, anxiously waiting for his decision.

"Mr. Ye... we truly realize our mistake, please spare us a way out."

Ye Fan’s dominance aroused a trace of anger in Nolan Xuan’s heart, yet he did not let the anger show on his face, instead continuing to put on an agonizing plea.

"I give you ten seconds to decide."

Ye Fan remained unmoved, his aura gradually rising, his posture signaling he might take action at any moment.

"Ye... Ye Fan, are you really going to push us into a corner?"

Nolan Xuan could no longer keep up the pretense; fury surfaced on his face and his fists clenched tightly, "Although my brother was wrong first, he did not physically harm that girl, instead, you crippled one of his hands, and even made him lose the ability to procreate!"

"Now, I want to calm things down, yet you’re asking me to destroy my Dantian, isn’t that too much of a bully?"

At the end, Nolan Xuan’s fury burst out completely, and he radiated the aura of an Innate Great Perfection cultivator.

"Can’t keep up the act any longer?"

Ye Fan sneered coldly, his aura rose to its peak, a terrifying killing intent enveloping Nolan Xuan.

"Don’t think I’m really afraid of you; it’s only the Ye Family and Chu Xuanji that I’m wary of!"

Feeling the killing intent surge from Ye Fan, Nolan Xuan’s face changed and, utterly irrepressible in his anger, he exclaimed, "One should always leave a line in life, so we may meet again in the future! I advise you not to be too ruthless, even a cornered rabbit will bite!"

"Since you’re unwilling to destroy your Dantian, then let me help you!" Ye Fan said as he took out the Black Iron Fist set and put it on.

"Ye Fan, you’re forcing my hand!"

Nolan Xuan roared angrily, fiercely drew a large saber from the north, his figure flashed, and he charged at Ye Fan with the saber.

"Die!"

Strike first to gain the upper hand; in the blink of an eye, Nolan Xuan dashed out several meters, lifting the big saber high, and swung it straight at Ye Fan’s head!

—"Water-cutting Saber Technique, Five Waves!"

This move was the killing move of the fifth layer of Nolan Xuan’s "Water-cutting Saber Technique", containing five layers of blade force within a single strike. The overlapping forces could split the water of Heavenly Pond into a gap dozens of meters wide, demonstrating such formidable power.

He hadn’t made a move yet, but once he did, it was a deadly strike.

At this moment.

Nolan Xuan seemed to know the hatred couldn’t be resolved, and, harboring a murderous intention, he aimed to cleave Ye Fan in two!
