Chapter 13
The next morning, Ye Fanâs injuries had recovered slightly and he could walk.
âMany thanks to the senior for saving my life,â Ye Fan said gratefully to Mu Jiuhuang. If it wasnât for Mu Jiuhuangâs spiritual energy nourishing his meridians for the whole night, he wouldnât have recovered so quickly.
âNo, the one you should really thank is my master,â Mu Jiuhuang said lightly. Without Xiao Changtianâs surgery, Ye Fan would not have survived.
âHowever, there is a faint golden color in your blood, which proves that you were born with spiritual bones. WhyâŠâ Mu Jiuhuang stared at Ye Fan and said.
Although she was Emperor Jiuhuang and wouldnât pry into other peopleâs privacy, she could feel that Ye Fanâs body had some kind of potential. It wouldnât even be an exaggeration to call the latter a heavenâs favorite.
The most important thing was Ye Fanâs surname.
She had heard before that the Ye family of the Xiniu Continent had given birth to a youth with supreme bones more than ten years ago. At that time, the news had shaken the entire continent.
âYou⊠Who are you?â When Ye Fan heard the words âborn with spiritual bonesâ, his expression changed and he took two steps back, on high alert.
Seeing Ye Fanâs reaction, Mu Jiuhuang was even more certain that Ye Fan was the eldest young master of the Ye family.
âI am known for the name Jiuhuang,â Mu Jiuhuang replied indifferently and released her aura. The aura at the ninth level of the Heavenly Tribulation Realm made it difficult for Ye Fan to breathe.
Mu Jiuhuang only wanted to prove her identity so she did not use her aura to target Ye Fan. Otherwise, with Ye Fanâs now mortal body and his broken dantian, the boyâs bones would have been crushed.
âEmperor Jiuhuang?!â Ye Fan was shocked. As a member of the Xiniu Continentâs Ye family, he naturally knew about the Nine Phoenix Dynasty, and even more so about Emperor Jiuhuang!
The other party had cultivation in the ninth level of the Heavenly Tribulation Realm. After the Emperor Death Era, Greater Vehicle Realm cultivators were non-existent, so those in the Heavenly Tribulation Realm were invincible!
âAlright, thereâs no need for that. You should thank my master first. If it werenât for my masterâs heavenly medical skills, you wouldnât have been able to come back to life,â Mu Jiuhuang said in a deep voice.
âYour master? Isnât my benefactor a mortal?â Ye Fan found it hard to understand, frowning. Although that person saved him, he had no cultivation.
Why would Emperor Jiuhuang call that person her master?
Emperor Jiuhuang was already the strongest on the Mainland of Tianyuan. She was extremely arrogant!
To think she would acknowledge a mortal as her master?
Ye Fan wasnât a fool. As the young master of the Ye family and born with supreme bones, how could he be brainless?
In just a moment, he thought of the key point.
âIs my benefactor a Greater Vehicle Realm expert?â Ye Fan looked at Mu Jiuhuang in surprise. It seemed that this was the only explanation.
He had heard of Emperor Jiuhuangâs story before. She was no weaker than anyone else.
Mu Jiuhuang chuckled and shook her head, âThe seniorâs cultivation base has long since surpassed the Greater Vehicle Realm. at the very least, heâs at the Ancient Emperor Realm.â
âThe Ancient Emperor Realm?â Ye Fan was stunned. The Ye family was a family with deep foundations in the Xiniu Continent, so they naturally knew many secrets.
The Ancient Emperor Realm was above the Greater Vehicle Realm. Experts in that realm were truly the undefeatable cultivators of the Mainland of Tianyuan.
However, it was rumored that all the Ancient Emperors had fallen.
âMy hate⊠My supreme bones, my dantianâŠâ Ye Fanâs heart was still burning with anger.
Knowing that Xiao Changtian was an Ancient Emperor, Ye Fanâs eyes suddenly shone with a bright light.
In his mind, an unprecedented thought suddenly emerged.
He wanted to be his benefactorâs disciple!
As long as he could become the disciple of an Ancient Emperor, he might be able to cultivate again.
This was because the ancient records of the Ye family stated that Ancient Emperors were existences that could resurrect people.
It shouldnât be difficult for the other party to recover his cultivation.
He had to acknowledge his benefactor as his master.
Thinking of this, Ye Fan immediately ran out and knelt on the ground.
Xiao Changtian, who was warming up, was dumbfounded, âWhat are you doing?â
The boy canât possibly be thinking that he didnât need to return the twenty taels of gold just by kneeling, right?
âSenior, thank you for saving my life,â Ye Fan kowtowed three times and a wound appeared on his forehead.
Xiao Changtian hurriedly supported his head. If the boy hurt his head again, wouldnât he have to pay for it?
At most, he could just write off the twenty taels of gold. Why did the boy have to hurt himself like this?
âSenior, IâŠâ Ye Fan opened his mouth, wanting to become Xiao Changtianâs disciple.
âI agree to it,â However, Xiao Changtian directly agreed before Ye Fan could finish his words.
It was just twenty taels of gold. If the boy couldnât afford it, then so be it.
He really couldnât stand Ye Fanâs self-harming actions.
âReally? Senior, youâve agreed!â When Ye Fan heard this, his face was filled with joy. As expected of an Ancient Emperor. He hadnât even finished speaking and the other party already knew that he wanted to be his disciple.
âYes,â Xiao Changtian nodded his head, but his heart was bleeding. Twenty taels of gold were gone just like that.
âThatâs great! Master, please accept this bow from your disciple,â Ye Fan bowed respectfully.
âMaster?â Xiao Changtian was stunned. Wasnât the boy talking about the twenty taels of gold?
He wasnât surprised that Ye Fan wanted to be his disciple. After all, the system had given him a notification before.
But now that Ye Fan had become his disciple, it seemed that he could not get the twenty taels of gold back either.
After all, no master could ever ask for money from his disciple.
Then, he thought of the cultivation technique rewarded by the system. If he couldnât understand it, he could let his disciple take a look.
If his disciple could learn it, wouldnât it be great if he could reap the results for free?
âYe Fan, although you are my disciple, I will say this first. Iâm just a mortal. The things I can teach you are only mortal things. So, youâll be like me for the rest of your life, a mortal. Are you still willing?â Xiao Changtian asked.
If Ye Fan wanted to cultivate, wouldnât his action of taking the boy in as a disciple be wasting the boyâs time? This matter had to be said first.
âA mortal?â Ye Fan was startled. What did the senior mean by this? To think the Ancient Emperor called himself a mortal?
Ye Fan frowned. He suddenly thought of some hidden experts he had met when he was young. All of them were no different from mortals.
He had only found out later on that these experts had reached the Simplicity Returning Realm. They had cultivated their hearts in the world of mortals and were but playing around in the human world.
The senior must be the same!
In fact, as an Ancient Emperor, the senior might be hiding in this tiny world of mortals and planning something big.
âIâm willing,â Ye Fan nodded his head in agreement. The mortals that followed Ancient Emperors were not something that ordinary cultivators could compare to either.
Seeing Ye Fan nod, Xiao Changtian took out the Mortal Path Scripture, âIn that case, you can cultivate according to this cultivation technique.â
âAs for the parts you donât understand, you can slowly comprehend them on your own. I will observe you regularly,â Xiao Changtian said slowly.
âYes,â Ye Fan received the Mortal Path Scripture and replied respectfully.
âWork hard. Iâm off to feed the dogs,â Xiao Changtian patted his shoulder and left.
