Chapter 965: Chapter 964: What, You Miss Me? (5 updates)

”Everyone has left; you can all go out now!” Back in her territory, Elder Qinglei was in a rotten mood, voicing her complaint with resentment.

”Um...you’re not deceiving me, are you?” Seeing Elder Qinglei’s expression, Ye Haochuan really couldn’t believe that there was no danger outside.

”Believe it or not, I don’t have the time to play games with you!” Elder Qinglei said angrily, then turned around and left.

Ye Haochuan and his companions looked at each other, unsure of what had gotten into Elder Qinglei.

”What should we do?” Zhu Qingshuang said with concern.

Long Piaoying and Zhu Tian were also at a loss, uncertain whether to trust Elder Qinglei’s words or not.

”If Elder Qinglei says no one is outside, then there must be no one outside; she wouldn’t lie!” Yige interjected at the right moment.

”She probably isn’t lying. The Tree People Clan hasn’t evolved to the point of lying yet. I guess she must have run into some other unhappy incident. Maybe the Tree People have their periods too!” Ye Haochuan chuckled.

”If that’s the case, then let’s take this opportunity to escape the Sub-Thunder Element Dimension Realm. As long as we get back to the Imperial Capital, there won’t be any danger,” Long Piaoying suggested.

In the Imperial Capital, her brother Long Xiaotian and her adopted niece were both high-level Core Formation Stage experts; once back home, no one would dare to trouble her.

”Good, let’s set off right away!” The others nodded in agreement.

Ye Haochuan still had some hidden worries, but for the moment, he could only selectively ignore them. They couldn’t stay in the Lei Tree People’s territory forever; leaving was their only choice.

The group bid farewell to the Lei Tree People and, with their assistance, left Lei Ze.

Having just left Lei Ze, the party was still apprehensive, but just as Elder Qinglei had said, there was not a single person in sight nearby.

”Let’s go, as long as we reach the Teleportation Array, we will be safe!”

With that said, Long Piaoying took the lead at the front.

Silently, the group didn’t encounter any notable demon beasts on the way, making the journey seem very peaceful.

”The Teleportation Array is just ahead; everyone be careful!”

As they were nearing their destination, Ye Haochuan timely reminded everyone.

There was only one Teleportation Array to exit the Sub-Thunder Element Dimension Realm, and if those people had the intent to ambush, they might just be lying in wait nearby.

Ye Haochuan had been harboring a bit of hope, but the next moment, his face changed drastically.

”Quite cautious, aren’t you! But just being cautious is useless. If I were you, I wouldn’t have come out!” A malicious voice echoed from afar.

”Not good, retreat!” Long Piaoying was immediately startled and wanted to turn and flee.

But Ye Haochuan stood still, shaking his head and saying, ”There’s no chance!”

”What?”

The group was shocked and quickly looked back, only to find a large group of people coming up from behind and encircling them.

As much as they didn’t want to believe it, the fact was they had indeed been surrounded.

From the front, back, left, and right, four groups of figures were quickly closing in, encircling Ye Haochuan and the others tightly.

From the group ahead, a figure familiar to Ye Haochuan stepped forward.

”Senior Long Piaoying, my name is Xue Tao, and I have long admired your esteemed reputation,” said the newcomer, who was none other than Xue Tao, who once had a fierce fight with Ye Haochuan.

He is the son of the Vice Sect Leader of the Human Sect, and even though his cultivation is not particularly high, his status is not low. The group of disciples from the Ancient Martial Arts Sect behind him all seem to defer to him as their leader.

”Cut the crap, if you have something to say, say it, if you have to fart, then fart!” Long Piaoying coldly stated.

”Senior, you really are impatient!” Xue Tao said with a slight smile, ”My father and you are old acquaintances. For the sake of my father, I hope you can hand over the Heavenly Star Grass to me, the junior!”

Xue Tao’s tone was very polite, but the threat in his words was very clear.

His father is the Vice Sect Leader of the Human Sect, which strictly speaking makes Long Piaoying a subordinate to his father.

”You...” As Long Piaoying was about to retort, she heard Zhu Tian frown and whisper, ”Senior Sister Long, I think we should just give it to them. With just the few of us, we simply can’t protect the Heavenly Star Grass!”

”I...” Long Piaoying, of course, also knew that they couldn’t protect the Heavenly Star Grass, but it was hard-earned and related to whether she could successfully reach Core Formation; she really didn’t want to give it up.

”Give the Heavenly Star Grass to me, I’ll handle it!” Ye Haochuan suddenly said.

Long Piaoying bit her silver teeth and ultimately handed the Heavenly Star Grass over to Ye Haochuan. She knew the situation now, and making her own choice was painful; it was better to let someone else decide.

”Now the Heavenly Star Grass is with him, you address your issue!” Long Piaoying pointed at Ye Haochuan and said.

Upon hearing this, Xue Tao’s expression became stern as he coldly said to Ye Haochuan, ”Ye Haochuan, we meet again!”

”What? Miss me?” Ye Haochuan remained unmoved, and said calmly with a smile.

”Still the same slick talker!” Xue Tao sneered, ”I didn’t expect that in just over a month since we last met, you’ve already succeeded in Foundation Establishment. I really underestimated you before!”

”You’re not too bad yourself, haven’t you also reached Foundation Establishment?” Ye Haochuan replied with a smirk, but his eyes were filled with disdain.

When Ye Haochuan first encountered Xue Tao, he was at the Innate Mid-Stage, and Xue Tao was already at the Innate Peak. And now at this meeting, their cultivations were equal.

Xue Tao of course noticed the mockery in Ye Haochuan’s eyes, and immediately his eyes narrowed, a fleeting murderous intent flashed through them.

”I’m not here today to argue with you. If you know what’s good for you, hand over the Heavenly Star Grass to me, and I promise you’ll leave here alive!”

Xue Tao’s tone was very arrogant, but he did indeed have the capital to be arrogant. Among the group behind him, there were as many as two at the Foundation Establishment Peak, and quite a few at the Foundation Establishment Late Stage. Ye Haochuan and his companions simply couldn’t be their match.

Just as Ye Haochuan was about to retort with some sarcasm, he suddenly heard a deep male voice from behind him.

”What nonsense is Nephew Xue talking about! If we join forces to surround them, why should the Heavenly Star Grass be handed over to you?”

Damn, looks like there’s a good show coming up!

Ye Haochuan turned his head with interest to look and saw an old man with half-white hair, dressed in brocaded clothes, standing proudly at the forefront of a group of people. His bearing was definitely that of an expert at the Foundation Establishment Peak.

It looks like these two groups are not from the same power, and there might even be a chance for survival!

Ye Haochuan’s heart leapt with joy, but at that moment, suddenly a hunched old man approached the brocaded-clothed elder and whispered a few words. Upon seeing the old man’s face, Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but gasp in shock.

Dammit, how can I run into enemies everywhere?

Ye Haochuan felt almost like crying without tears.

The old man was none other than the one from the Foundation Establishment Early Stage who Ye Haochuan had injured in the KTV, and he was from the Liu Family. Could it be that all these people were from the Liu Family?

Indeed, after listening for a moment, the expression of the brocaded-clothed elder changed slightly. However, in the next second, he smiled again and said to Ye Haochuan, ”Young man, as long as you hand over the Heavenly Star Grass to me, I’ll consider your little grudge with my Liu Family settled, and I’ll even give you a big reward. What do you say?”
