Chapter 688: Chapter 612: Invincible Among Peers

Because 50,000 essence stones were a vast fortune and were cumbersome to carry, after Lv Zhan and Elder Hua reached an agreement, they decided to split the 50,000 essence stones in two and had them delivered to the locations designated by Ye Fan and Lv Zhan by people from the Du Sect.

"Old Man Hua, if Ye brother and I don’t see the essence stones within three days, your Du Sect better brace for the Evil Emperor’s wrath!"

When leaving the Du Sect headquarters estate, Lv Zhan once again used Chu Xuanji’s influence as a scare tactic against Elder Hua, which caused Elder Hua much frustration.

After Ye Fan and Lv Zhan left the Du Sect headquarters estate, they temporarily parted ways, Ye Fan went to receive his award for the Qing List competition from the Yanhuang Organization, while Lv Zhan went to meet up with Chu Ji and the others.

According to Ye Fan’s earlier arrangements, they planned to gather together that evening.

...

Ye Fan was not unfamiliar with the Yanhuang Organization Headquarters.

Previously, after creating havoc in the Southeast Asia Special Zone, decimating the Nanqinghong headquarters, and facing off against the Hongwu Sect alone, he was captured by Yanhuang Organization Law Enforcement Team Captain Hong Lie and brought to the Yanhuang Organization Headquarters.

At that time, Hong Lie, extremely furious over his disciple Ye Long being crippled by Ye Fan, wanted to bend the law for personal benefit but was stopped by Outer Elder He Yunting from the Yanhuang Organization. Later, he made a wager with Ye Fan and ended up being taught a lesson by Yan and was to be imprisoned in the dungeon for five years.

Latter, several great elders of the Yanhuang Organization pleaded for mercy on behalf of Hong Lie. Eventually, Yan decided to show leniency and did not imprison Hong Lie.

However—

After that incident, instead of learning his lesson, Hong Lie’s hatred for Ye Fan grew even stronger. Consequently, before the Qing List competition, he specifically sought out Leng Feng to provoke him to cripple Ye Fan and to vent his malice.

Ye Fan, unaware of these machinations, simply defeated Leng Feng with imposing and domineering force, rendering Hong Lie’s plans for revenge fruitless.

Whoosh!

When Ye Fan drove to the Yanhuang Organization Headquarters, the members on guard duty at the gate all turned their gaze towards him.

In addition, many members of the Yanhuang Organization inside the office building sensed Ye Fan’s presence, stood up, and walked to the windows to watch.

"Mr. Ye, Elder He had instructed that you can head directly to his office when you arrive,"

One of the Yanhuang Organization Outer Members on guard duty immediately stepped forward and spoke with great respect.

Although he was just an Outer Member of the Yanhuang Organization, he knew Ye Fan had topped the Qing List and was regarded as the Young Supreme of the Hua Xia Cultivation World; he had even specifically looked up Ye Fan’s photograph.

As his words fell, he gestured to allow entry, and another Yanhuang Organization Outer Member immediately opened the gate.

"Thank you."

Ye Fan thanked with a smile, drove into the Yanhuang Organization Headquarters, and eventually parked his car in front of the office building.

"Xiao Fan, you finally arrived,"

The moment Ye Fan stepped out of his car, He Yunting, an Outer Elder of the Yanhuang Organization, walked out from the office building, coming forward with a smile: "The Leader has been waiting for you today and hasn’t gone anywhere else. Let me take you up."

"Thank you, Elder He."

Ye Fan thanked with a smile, exhibiting a humble demeanor.

Seeing this scene, He Yunting felt deeply moved.

There was a time when Ye Fan’s cultivation was miles behind his, yet now, although Ye Fan was only in the half-step Gang Qi realm and not as advanced in cultivation, his combat power was no less inferior to his!

Moreover, sense told him that if Ye Fan could easily slay someone as formidable as Emperor Bai, who was comparable to a master of the Gang Qi Introduction Realm, then he definitely had the strength to kill him!

After a moment of reflection, He Yunting no longer indulged in idle talk and led the way.

Hmm?

After entering the office building, just as Ye Fan was about to follow He Yunting to the elevator, he sensed someone watching him in secret. Turning his head, he startlingly found it was Hong Lie.

Whoosh!

As Hong Lie saw Ye Fan’s gaze sweep towards him, he jolted as if struck by electricity, his complexion drastically changed, and then he immediately lowered his head, pretending to have seen nothing.

Acting guilty,

At this moment, Hong Lie was terrified that Ye Fan might come after him!

"Xiao Fan, initially, Leader Yan intended to imprison Captain Hong in the dungeon for five years, but given the current turbulence in the Cultivation World and the Yanhuang Organization being severely understaffed, a few of us old fellows approached Leader Yan and pleaded for mercy on behalf of Hong Lie..."

Seeing this, He Yunting nervously began to explain, as if he feared that Ye Fan might seek retribution against Hong Lie.

"Elder He, let’s go see Leader Yan,"

With just a glance, Ye Fan withdrew his gaze, completely ignoring Hong Lie’s presence and interrupting He Yunting.

"Uh..."

He Yunting paused for a moment, then came to a sudden realization. Given Ye Fan’s current status and strength, he genuinely had no reason to bother with Hong Lie anymore.

Because, the once considered most promising contender to break through the Gang Qi Introduction realm, dubbed invincible under the Gang Qi Introduction Realm, Hong Lie, had been surpassed by Ye Fan, and would only be left far behind, to the point where he could only look up to him!

Even He Yunting could see this, let alone Hong Lie himself?

Bitterness welled up in Hong Lie’s heart, and afterward, he silently entered his office without saying a word.

Two minutes later, led by He Yunting, Ye Fan arrived at Leader Yan’s office.

Although Yan was the head of the Yanhuang Organization, he rarely worked from the office at the Yanhuang Organization Headquarters all year round, leaving He Yunting to handle the affairs, appearing only during significant matters.

Today, for Yan to personally attend to his office for just one person was an exceedingly rare occurrence over the past few years, with only the most powerful figures at the peak of the power pyramid being the usual visitors!
