Chapter 78: Resolved
Ye Fan had already carved the image of the three-footed and two eared circular cauldron into his mind, however, attempting to mold the divine symbol within his sea of bitterness was simply too difficult and just attempting to combine the nineteen divine symbols together had taken up a lot of time.
Finally, he was able to slowly merge the nineteen divine symbols together, forming a bean-sized object but it was difficult to mold it and change its form. No matter how one looked at it, it simply did not have any semblance or connection to a cauldron.
Ye Fan tried many times however, not to mention the form of a cauldron, he had not even managed to create any wrinkles on it, molding a cauldron was certainly going to be an arduous process.
However, he was not anxious as he had after all just began to experiment. There would be time in the future to polish up and this would definitely be a long and tiring process. This was not exclusive only to him but others would also have gone through this.
The sky was beginning to darken and Ye Fan killed a badger before heading back. Returning to the small store and sitting down, the old man had already filled a table with a bountiful feast, the aroma making one salivate.
Ting Ting changed into a new attire and her rosy face had a sweet smile on it with two beautiful dimples. The little girl had very low expectations for happiness, being able to eat a full meal and not being bullied was extremely satisfying to her. Furthermore, she even had new clothes to wear now.
“Today, the Li family have been panicking and started treating everyone as their enemy, gathering many able-bodied men to their side as though to guard against something.” Old uncle Jiang mentioned at the table.
“What’s going on?” Ye Fan asked.
“The Li family have a rival family that resides several tens of miles away, that family also has cultivators outside and is one of the strongest family of this area. The two families have never gotten along with each other and the Li family suspects that it was that rival family that sabotaged their ten over goods vehicles and have sent people to investigate. The result was them losing a supervisor and the others being half beaten to death before crawling back.”
Ye Fan laughed lightly and said: “Originally I had planned to continue torturing them however it seems that I don’t have to trouble myself with this anymore. This time, they’ll be too busy with their own business without any time to suspect others. We’ll let these two fishing village families continue to be jealous and suspicious of each other.”
After carefully finding out all the details, Ye Fan silently left the small town and ran several tens of miles through the night to arrive at a manor.
Ye Fan was able to quietly make his way in, although this family had cultivators, they were not currently with the family and this was simply too easy for him. He spent roughly an hour before discovering a bunch of people who were tied up firmly within the firewood storage room.
“Is it supervisor Zhang?”
A sharp voice could be heard from within the room and as described by old uncle Jiang, he immediately answered: “It’s me, who are you?”
“Supervisor Li, I’m here to save you.” Ye Fan walked over as he removed the rope binding his body: “The young master of your house is returning from the Yan Xia immortal sanctuary and plans to thoroughly exterminate the Wang family.”
“What…….” Supervisor Zhang seemed to be in shock as he asked: “Who are you?”
Ye Fan’s voice became colder as he continued: “Calm your emotions, the young master of your family has requested help from a few of his fellow students and I am one of them.”
“This little one greets immortal sir.” Supervisor Li could hear from the voice that the other side was not very old however once he realised that he was faced with a cultivator, he began to worship like a kowtowing bug.
“No need to stand on ceremony, there’s some important matters that I have to instruct you, listen closely.”
“Immortal sir, please go ahead and speak.”
“There are a few barrels of oil here, go outside and spread a fire. Once the fire is lit, shout loudly that your young master will exterminate their entire family.”
“Ah, in that case wouldn’t we be killed if we’re caught by them?” At this moment, supervisor Zhang was in a state of confusion and could not think clearly but rather only thought of how to preserve his own life.
“Relax, your safety will be guaranteed by us. The few of us want to slowly torture them and let the people of the Wang family die in terror.”
“Alright, we’ll immediately set fire and when the time comes we’ll go all out together with immortal sir.”
Ye Fan patted his shoulder and said in a profound voice: “You’ve gained much merit this day!”
To be praised by the immortal within his eyes, supervisor Zhang felt the blood within him boil and utilised all his experience of bullying the townsfolk as he began to speedily move the few barrels of oil.
Ye fan began to keep the broken rope on the group as he turned and disappeared into the darkness.
Not long after, a blazing fire could be seen within the manor and four to five areas were ablaze. At this moment, supervisor Zhang’s sharp voice could be heard in the night: “Bastards of the Wang family, your bastard hole has been set on fire by us! Just you wait, our young master will exterminate your entire family!”
