Chapter 64: The Past Cannot Be Undone

The cultivators who did not attack ran off to brief the Ye Family’s Elders on the situation!

Gu Qing Ke didn’t expect that Ye Lei was more powerful than she anticipated.
She wanted to come to Ye Chen Yuan’s aid, but she was ensnared in the battle with Ye Lei, and naturally couldn’t catch a glimpse of the situation in the courtyard.

 

In the courtyard, Ye Chen Yuan’s expression was slow and impassive.

 

Elder Li said readily, “Do you feel it? The benefits of opening two of your acupoints.”1

 

Ye Chen Yuan said solemnly while deep in thought, “I feel it.”

 

With three Foundation Building experts enclosing him, he could clearly feel their Spiritual Qi.
If you were to compare him to a stream, than they were just basins of stagnant water.2

 

So, this is the power of the God Emperor Blood Vessels that defies the will of Heaven?3

 

Elder Li was no longer in his weakened state, not like he was when he’d just awoken a few years back.
With the spirit of a 10,000 year old cultivator, his power was gradually replenished with Yuan Chu’s support, and was currently equivalent to the Mid Level of the Core Formation realm.
If he simply attacks a cultivator’s spiritual sense, that person will then have no choice but to flee with their spiritual Qi.

 

A dozen people relentlessly bombarded Ye Chen Yuan with powerful attacks.
Initially, they believed that there was no possibility of loss, but a quarter-hour later, and the sole person who stood victoriously over his now fallen assailants was Ye Chen Yuan!

 

Ye Chen Yuan did not employ the arts of any special martial techniques, nor did he use any type of weapon.
The only advantage he had was simply based on the most basic skills taught to every cultivator.

 

Because his ability to store Spiritual Qi goes against the heavens, the most basic Fireball Art, which others can do in at least three seconds, he casts it without a single moment’s delay.
Typically, when one releases the skill on a wave of more than 100, their energy will undoubtedly be depleted, but when he uses the skill on the same wave, it is simply relaxing.
Over 100 fireballs are casted in the blink of an eye!

 

As the saying goes, if you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.4 The Ye Family underestimated their enemy, and later faced the scorching flames! Unable to even put forward a hand to defend themselves, they suffered an overwhelming defeat.
Instantaneously, the entire yard was set ablaze with the flames of the dawn of a new day. 

 

The smell of burning flesh and skin, and the sound of the Ye family’s loud, piercing cries permeated the air.
They remained conscious yet in pain, so Ye Chen Yuan motioned with his hands, and countless more fireballs appeared in the sky! As the fireballs passed through the air, they left behind a bright tail of light, and when they finally reached the household, most of the family was either killed or injured before they could even react! As Ye Chen Yuan stood amidst the flames, his pure white clothes fluttered as a strong wind passed, his expression remaining unchanged all throughout.

 

“Mon-monster!”  

 

Someone cried out in distress and fear.
The Ye family which was supposed to be enjoying a good show were suddenly the ones suffering in calamity.
Every single person took to their heels and the last boy tripped on his way.
Only he was left whimpering on the grass.
Like a ghost, Ye Chen Yuan slowly approached from behind.

 

“You, you are Ye Xu?”

 

Ye Chen Yuan looked to him with a calm smile.
When he was a child living in this manor, he was simply at the Fifth Level of Qi Condensation.
His family refused to offer him a Qi Enhancement Pill because they didn’t want him to cultivate Qi into his body. 

 

In those years without Spiritual Qi, apart from spending time reading as a hobby, he spent his time, and if he had a choice in the matter he would rather have not, being humiliated and bullied by these people.

 

The person in front of him, Ye Xu, was one of those who’d humiliate and bully him back then.
But corporal things like punching and kicking are trivial.
Yet he especially remembers the sole thing ever able to enrage him in all his childhood.
After his mother had left, the only aunt who had continued to gingerly take care of him was severely injured by the Grand Elder of the House.
He sacrificed much of his Qi to steal a bowl of porridge filled with the essence of a spirit beast for his aunt.
However, Ye Xu witnessed this and so he smirked as he sprinkled specks of dirt, mud, and sand into the bowl before Ye Chen Yuan’s very eyes, saying, “the whore who dared to seduce brother is only worthy of this polluted porridge.”

Later, his aunt passed away due to the severity of her injuries, loss of blood, and malnutrition.
Every single person in the Ye family was a murderer.

 

Before Ye Chen Yuan met his master, he drove himself to the utmost of his abilities to cultivate, desperately hoping that someday he could slaughter all the people in this house!

 

But now that he’s finally come back, he suddenly felt that these people weren’t even worth a single glance, they held not a smidgen of value.

 

No matter who a person lived as, whether they were the most kind or evil, a life could be taken away in an instant.
The woman who so gently cared for him back then can never be brought back to life.

 

When Ye Xu saw Ye Chen Yuan’s callous and cold-blooded expression, he was so terrified he nearly wet his pants!

 

The Ye Chen Yuan in front of his eyes is able to take the life of three Foundation Building spiritual beasts with a simple wave of his hand! Recalling the things he’d done to Ye Chen Yuan in his childhood, Ye Xu’s slender and paper thin face became more and more blanched as he creased so hard the folds in his skin made him look hideous, and his legs were palpitating like leaves on a windy day, he could most certainly not stand up from his current fallen position.
He could only lie on his back quivering in fear as he made a pitiful attempt to slowly move backwards, pathetically crawling away.

 

“Ye…Ye Chen Yuan, no, young master Ye!”  Ye Xu violently shook as he called his name, “I had nothing to do with what happened back then, don’t blame me! It’s all because of the Grand Elder! It’s him who said that you’re the greatest shame of the Ye Family and that we could treat you as we wished! It was him who said it!”

 

Ye Chen Yuan looked at him condescendingly, his overly handsome face completely rigid and unfeeling.

 

That’s right, the reason why he was tormented so harshly in the first place was because of the Grand Elder of the Ye Family, otherwise, why else would there be the need to fuss with a mere Fifth Level of Qi Condensation stage? It’s not as if this large family can’t afford to raise a waste.

 

Yet his grandfather, the Grand Elder, despised and hated him so much, attempting to dispose of him every chance he had.
It was as if he wasn’t his blood-related grandson, but a fierce enemy, and whether or not it was true, Ye Chen Yuan couldn’t help but snicker to himself a couple times.

 

Ye Chen Yuan tilted his head slightly as he felt and heard the ‘whoosh’ of a breeze passing him by.
A sharp arrow narrowly flew past, but not without cutting a few strands of his hair, nearly piercing his neck.

 

“I’ll see who dares to cause a ruckus at this Ye House!”

 

The old, powerful voice came with the suppression of a late-stage Core Formation expert.
If Ye Chen Yuan was a general Foundation Building cultivator, he would feel the suppression as well, but he did not.
The Core Formation suppression was nothing worth mentioning to him.

 

A lean old man with a completely white beard and hair strode forward.
He was the person responsible for releasing that dark and sharp arrow just now, but what he didn’t expect was for Ye Chen Yuan to be able to avoid it, as if he had a pair of eyes like a hawk on his nape as well.
It seemed that he undertook a great escapade.

 

As Ye Chen Yuan turned away from him, Ye Xu took this chance to head for the hills5 in a rush.
At the same time, the house where Ye Lei was located exploded as Gu Qing Ke and him suddenly flew out amidst the flames!

 

Ye Lei had a diamond-shaped light shield for protection, and though he appeared to be unscathed, his face was a little pale.

 

Meanwhile, Gu Qing Ke held a luminous jade flute in her hand, and was evidently injured.

 

“Lei’er!” 6 The Grand Elder shouted, and Ye Lei quickly ran over to his side.
Ye Chen Yuan also jumped and flew over to catch Gu Qing Ke.

At this time, Gu Qing Ke would be idiotic if she didn’t know about Ye Chen Yuan’s overwhelming strength and his devastating suppression, but no matter how formidable he was, he couldn’t be more powerful than Ye Lei and Grand Elder Ye Baichuan who held the advantage of age and experience over his head.
Grand Elder was in the late-stage Core Formation realm.
If it weren’t for his exceedingly high cultivation, then he wouldn’t even bother to stay behind and guard the house.

 

Ye Chen Yuan spotted Gu Qing Ke’s injured shoulder, and recognized that a lot of blood was seeping out from the wound.
He frowned slightly and fed her a Healing Remedy Pill.

 

“Thank you for your past and present actions.
This next thing, I will solve myself.
You don’t have to worry any longer.”

 

The firmness of Ye Chen Yuan’s voice bore no argument, and so he placed Gu Qing Ke onto a stone bench a distance away from the center of conflict.

 

Observing his back as he slowly walked away, Gu Qing Ke hurriedly tugged on his arm and stuffed a jade tablet into his hand before pushing him to leave.

 

“The jade tablet you’re holding can resist the full blow of a Core Formation expert.
You have to be careful, and flee if you must! Don’t worry about me, the Ye Family wouldn’t dare to mistreat me!”

 

Unable to say anything more, Ye Chen Yuan nodded understandingly, and then strode towards Ye Baichuan.
If he wasn’t absolutely sure, he wouldn’t dare to come to the Ye pavilion alone in the first place.

 

Ye Baichuan stood before the eyes of every person in the manor.
Because every other promising cultivator among the Ye family was currently in the First Rank countries, he was forced to be the sole person able to come out and personally protect the house.
