Chapter 843 – Selling Lives! (1/2)

“Human! I’ll remember this!” As soon as the Demon Commander finished speaking, 20 Monarch Realm inner cores and 100 Exalt Realm inner cores appeared in front of Yang Ye.

“You’ll remember this?” Yang Ye laughed coldly and said, “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely pay you a visit in the future!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Ye didn’t speak another word. He just took the inner cores and entered the carriage. He smiled when he saw Fan Li and Fan Meng staring at him, and the viciousness on his face had vanished, “Why are you looking at me like that? Is it because you think I’m very strong?”

Fan Meng hurriedly nodded while Fan Li nodded slightly as well.

The scene from before where Yang Ye slaughtered the horde of pegasus horses, killed 2 Demon Generals, and even threatened a Demon Commander was undoubtedly extremely shocking to the 2 of them.

At this moment, Yang Ye seemed even more mysterious to them.

Fan Li glanced at Yang Ye while a trace of bitterness could be seen on the corners of her mouth. She said to herself, How laughable. I actually treated him like that in the past…. If it wasn’t for Little Meng, I would probably be dead by now!

She didn’t know anything about Yang Ye’s past, but based on their time together, she knew that Yang Ye was definitely a ruthless person. Especially towards his enemies. So, she felt very fortunate right now. Because if Yang Ye didn’t have a good impression of Fan Meng, then not to mention her, even Fan Meng might have been implicated because of her!

In the carriage, Yang Ye withdrew the 20 Monarch Realm inner cores and 100 Exalt Realm inner cores.

Fan Li explained, “The pure energy contained within the Monarch Realm inner cores are comparable to 5,000 extreme-grade energy stones. As for the Exalt Realm inner cores, they are comparable to around 1,000. However, their value is far from that. For example, it would take at least 10,000 extreme-grade energy stones to buy a single Monarch Realm inner core. After all, it’s very rare!”

Yang Ye nodded and put them away. Inner cores from demon beasts weren’t like energy stones, and it was truly quite a waste to just absorb them. Moreover, he didn’t want to just swallow them. After all, they weren’t tasteless like energy stones. They carried a dense smell of blood, and he didn’t want to torture himself like that.

Of course, the most important reason was that he’d temporarily given up on charging into the Monarch Realm.

According to the woman from before, the Dao Order wouldn’t dispatch experts above his realm of cultivation in order to regain the face it had lost. In other words, the Dao Order’s experts who came for his life would only be Exalt Realm cultivators. But if he attained the Monarch Realm, then it would be Monarch Realm experts that came after him. His strength would improve upon attaining the Monarch Realm, but it wouldn’t be very helpful in the end. After all, he couldn’t use too much of his profound energy right now!

So, he’d decided to improve his physical body instead and restore his physical body to the Half-Saint Realm.

Opponents at the Exalt Realm were much easier to deal with than Monarch Realm experts. That didn’t represent that he feared the Monarch Realm experts of the Dao Order. It was because he was very clearly aware of his objective, and it was to take Fan Meng and Fan Li somewhere safe before meeting Lu Wan’er.

Yang Ye withdrew 5,000 extreme-grade energy stones and started absorbing them like a madman.

…

Outside the carriage, Fan Li and Fan Meng sat side by side.

Fan Meng wrapped her hand around Fan Li’s arm as she asked softly, “Big Sister, do you think the Fan Clan will be fine?”

Fan Li looked towards the direction of the Fan Clan. While both of them had been used by the Fan Clan and even abandoned. But it was still their home in the end, so how could they just cut it off from their lives just like that?

However, Fan Li wasn’t an indecisive person as well. She quickly restrained her thoughts and said, “In the past, I felt that grandfather and the others really intended to allow us to take control of the Fan Clan. But what happened that day completely jolted me awake. The reason they let me manage the Fan Clan was because of my ability in management of the clan. But once I had a better use, they didn’t hesitate to throw me away. In short, the Fan Clan isn’t our home from now on!”

Fan Meng remained silent for a long time before she said, “Big Sister, then where will we go?”

Fan Li rubbed Fan Meng’s head and said, “Your natural talent in the Sword Dao isn’t bad. You didn’t have someone to guide you in the past, and that was why your natural talent was buried. So, you must work hard and join the Ancient Sword School. Only then would I be truly able to rest at ease.”

Fan Meng hesitated for a while before she said, “Big Sister, why… why don’t we just stay with Yang Ye, alright?”

Fan Li shook her head, “Little Meng, don’t ever have such thoughts from now on.”

Fan Meng was puzzled, “Why?”

“Perhaps, we… are just people transient acquaintances in his life….” Fan Li spoke softly. Actually, she was very clearly aware that it wasn’t just a possibility, it was definite. She was able to discern that Yang Ye didn’t have any feelings of attraction towards Fan Meng. All he had was the feelings of an older brother to a younger sister. However, it did allow her to heave a sigh of relief because she didn’t want Fan Meng to stay with Yang Ye. Yang Ye was someone who was too dangerous…. Moreover, she didn’t feel that her younger sister could keep him by her side.

If Yang Ye didn’t die, she believed that a person like Yang Ye would definitely rise up in the world!

“Transient acquaintances….” Fan Meng understood what her older sister meant. A long time later, she raised her head and gazed at her older sister, “I don’t want to be that!”

Fan Li replied, “Then work hard on becoming stronger!”

Fan Meng nodded while determination covered her little face.

…

Night. The air was still while moonlight rained down from above, and it covered the mountains in a thin silver glow.

The carriage stopped.

“Big Sister, why is it so quiet?” Fan Meng sized up the surroundings. At this moment, they were in a forest that was covered in ancient trees, and only a sliver of moonlight could pa.s.s through the gaps between their leaves. So, the visibility here was quite low, and they could only see a blurry image of the surroundings.
