Chapter 81: Looking for Surnamed Jiang

When Ye Fan saw the old or young disabled and helpless, his heart would often feel sympathy. However, when he met those who oppressed the weak and did all manner of vicious acts, he would become emotionless, absolutely ice cold. It may seem contradictory but this was how it was and an overly compassionate heart existed together with his coldness and emotionlessness, he did not know which side he leaned towards.

For example right now, he was absolutely emotionless without any mercy within him as he stepped on the Li family seventh young master’s face, his voice was cold as he said: “If you don’t want to continue suffering, answer the questions that are asked. Otherwise, you know what’s the outcome.”

“Little bastard……”

“Bang!”

Ye Fan sent him flying with a kick, the teeth of the seventh young master all fell out as his delicate and fair face swelled up, blood flowing from his nose and mouth.

“Looking at your soft skin and tender flesh, you’re just perfect material for an eunuch. I see that you still don’t want to talk, let me fulfil your wish and make it a reality.” Ye Fan released his golden book which hovered in the air, its brilliance bright and dazzling.

“You…… What are you planning to do?” The seventh young master was besides himself in fear.

“Allowing you to become an eunuch!”

“No! I’ll talk, I’ll talk about everything!” The seventh young master was so afraid that his face had contorted, to a man this was something that was even harder to bear than death.

“Spineless thing.”

Ye Fan sat not far away on a limestone as he quietly listened to him talk about the past. Ting Ting’s parents had really been killed by the few cultivators of the Li family. They had used all their means to acquire an extremely rare medicine from other cultivators. It could cause extremely strong wild beasts to go crazy as they secretly doused the bodies of Ting Ting’s parents. Thereafter, when they went out to gather spiritual medicine, they had been torn to shreds by the Lightning Bird.

There were also other shady dealings and sinister plots that if heard would make one feel resentment. Ye Fan sighed: “Be it the ordinary realm or the cultivator world, there isn’t much difference. A place with people will always be complicated because a human will bear grudges, even a cultivator is not exempt from this.”

Ye Fan searched and found a wooden case within his bosom, kicking him aside then borrowing the light from the moon and the stars, he slowly opened this slightly heavy sandalwood case.

Inside, there was a faint yellow piece of rock that was about thick as a thumb and as long as a segment of a finger. Although it was a very small piece, it seemed very heavy to hold and Ye Fan could fill it brimming with vigorous life.

“Based on ancient texts, during the era which all living things were formed, the plants and trees were abundant and living things were formidable, spiritual medicines were endless and many ‘sources’ were formed, like sparkling and translucent amber crystals, they contained large amounts of the qi essence of life. Was this the ‘source’?”*

[T/N* This may seem familiar because the author previously used this exact same sentence]

Ye Fan constantly inspected it under the moonlight and discovered that this piece of ‘source’ had many impurities within, the sparkling and translucent portion of it barely covered a third of it. This made him feel a little regretful, this was not a pure ‘source’.

Even so, he was already extremely satisfied. This miraculous amber stone contained an extremely vigorous qi essence of life and something that was like mist and multicoloured lights seemed to be circulating within.

“Good stuff! I wonder how much it can assist me to establish the sea of bitterness!”

“That is mine!” The Li family seventh young master groaned within his pool of blood, he grit his teeth, clearly filled with anger and bitter resentment.

“Wasn’t this piece of ‘source’ found within an ancient cave within the deep mountains? Could it be that there was only such a small piece, nothing else?”

Under Ye Fan’s ministrations, the seventh young master was willing to say anything and hid nothing. There was a cultivator within that died in a seated posture, too many years had passed and even the bones had turned to ash, leaving only this piece of ‘source’ behind.

“It’s too regretful, i thought that I would be able to obtain a few pieces.” Ye Fan felt rather greedy for these ‘sources’.

“I’ve said everything, can you leave a way out for me?” The seventh young master had an expression of hope, he knew that this was having excessive expectations and more likely than not the enemy would not let him off.

“When you were planning to kill Ting Ting’s parents, did you ever have mercy in your heart? When you forced old uncle Jiang and Ting Ting into such bitter states, did you think of leaving them a way out?”

Ye Fan kicked him away as he said: “I’ll give you a chance to kill yourself so you won’t get tortured anymore. I have never killed anyone before and don’t feel like staining my hands.”

“You…… you’ve never killed before…..” As the seventh young master said this his body trembled: “You….. you will be struck by lightning!”

Ye Fan used his feet to kick him before a mountain rock and said: “Knock yourself to death, if you force me to act, I’ll make you an eunuch first before killing you.”
