Views:

He kept practicing the Thunder Emperor Technique, and on the sixth day, Ye Chen broke through the fourth-level barrier again, and his profound energy level reached the fifth-level level. WwW. QuanBeN-XiaoShuo. cO

"Finally reached the fifth level." Ye Chen circulated the profound energy in his body, and the profound energy became several times stronger. This made him quite excited. With the fifth level of profound energy, he could actually control the body of Yuan Lei. status, which lasts for ten seconds.

Ye Kongyan is currently only at the peak level of the fifth level. With the quality of the profound energy in his body and the family secret skill of Yuan Lei Body, he should be able to defeat Ye Kongyan.

The fifth level is pretty good among the entire family. Among the thousands of people in Yejiabao, there are only more than 200 people who can reach the fifth level. These two hundred people are the backbone of the family. If you can reach the sixth level before the age of eighteen, there is still hope to take a step forward. If you fail to reach the sixth level before the age of eighteen, the meridians will harden, and it will be difficult to move up to a higher level.

After being baptized by the mysterious energy in the flying knife, Ye Chen's body has reached the state of pure Yang, which is very suitable for practicing martial arts. Naturally, there is no need to worry about this.

After the fifth level, the speed of condensation of Xuan Qi slows down, but there is no need to rush into practice. Ye Chen can only practice slowly, and at the same time, he keeps practicing the body of Yuan Lei and the Thunder Break and Thunder Fist. Two martial arts.

Although his strength has been greatly improved, Ye Chen is not proud at all and still practices unswervingly. The three years since his meridians were cut off have tempered his character to be very calm.

During this time, Yejiabao was full of busy scenes, and the tribesmen were preparing for the ancestor worship ceremony. Although Yejiabao was now in an extremely difficult economic situation, the ancestor worship ceremony still could not be skipped. Those who were responsible for managing the family's business abroad also returned to Yejiabao one after another, including Ye Chen's two brothers.

Ye Chen's two brothers failed to reach the sixth level before the age of eighteen, and only stayed at the peak of the fifth level, so they were sent outside to manage some of the family's properties.

They wanted to come over to see Ye Chen, but they were all stopped by Ye Zhantian. At this time, they did not know that Ye Chen's meridians had been restored. Before the ancestor worship ceremony, the news of the recovery of Ye Chen's meridians must be kept secret. The less The more people know, the better.

Knowing that the successor to the family head was about to be selected, all the young people who were qualified to participate stepped up their training, hoping to make a splash at the ancestor worship ceremony.

Yejiabao has been busy up and down for a long time, and finally ushered in the ancestor worship ceremony that is extremely important to Yejiabao and happens every five years.

In the central square, there were crowds of people, and a huge altar was set up in the middle. A dozen tribesmen were killing pigs and sheep next to it, preparing to sacrifice their ancestors.

Ye Zhantian and others also sat down at the edge of the altar. There were sixteen positions on the edge of the altar, and fifteen people sat there, two of the eighth level and thirteen of the seventh level. They were the pillars of the entire family. The central position is empty.

Ye Chen and other juniors stood behind the seats of Ye Zhantian and others.

"Third brother, how are you doing lately?" The speaker was Ye Mu, Ye Chen's second brother. Ye Mu was five years older than Ye Chen. He failed to advance to the sixth level before he turned eighteen. He was sent by Ye Zhantian to Donglin County to manage the Ye family's grocery store. After years of experience outside, Ye Mu's temperament was refined and gentle. Dress free and easy, with a unique style. As soon as Ye Mu came back, he wanted to visit Ye Chen, but he never saw Ye Chen's face. At this time, he looked at Ye Chen with concern in his eyes.

Hearing Ye Mu's concerned words, Ye Chen felt warm in his heart and nodded: "It's much better."

"I knew that no setback would be able to trouble the third brother. This is what the eldest brother and the second brother brought to you!" Ye Peng, who was on the side, took Ye Chen and quietly thrust a brocade box to Ye Chen. He is the third brother. The eldest among them, he has the most honest and steady temperament and has always taken good care of his younger brothers.

Ye Chen pushed it away for a moment, but still didn't push it away. He opened the brocade box and looked at it. There were two Qi Gathering Pills. Ye Peng and Ye Mu are outside and don't have much income. They have been scrimping on food and clothing all year round, so they can only afford two Qi Gathering Pills. …,

Ye Chen felt sad in his heart. Although these two brothers didn't come back often, they both cared about him very much.

"Brother, I can no longer use the Qi Gathering Pill now."

"Why can't you use it? You have to consume so many Qi Gathering Pills every month! They are all brothers, don't be polite to the elder brother!" Ye Peng said seriously.

"I..." Ye Chen really wanted to tell his two elder brothers right now that his meridians had recovered, but there were so many people talking and he didn't know what to say.

The care of the two brothers made Ye Chen feel the true brotherhood. Looking at the brocade box in his hand, Ye Chen was silent for a moment, put the brocade box into his arms, and hid it close to his body. In Ye Chen's eyes, they were not Just two Qi Gathering Pills!

"Clan leader, the old patriarch is here!" A clan member rushed up and said with excitement on his face.

"Uncle Six is finally here." Ye Zhantian smiled slightly, and everyone stood up suddenly. Looking under the altar, they saw the tribesmen retreating to both sides. An old man with white beard and hair, but full of energy, wearing a gray robe, Walking along like a dragon and a tiger.

"Hello, old patriarch!"

"Hello, old patriarch!"

The clansmen on both sides looked excited. The old patriarch Ye Cangxuan was undoubtedly a god-like existence in their hearts. A ninth-level master, he was the top existence in Yejiabao and the protective force of the family. Without the huge existence of the old patriarch, The deterrent is that Yejia Fort cannot be defended by Ye Zhantian and others alone. It will definitely be annexed very early.

One or two words cannot express the admiration of the tribesmen for Ye Cangxuan.

"Uncle Six!" Ye Zhantian and others bent down and bowed.

Ye Cangxuan waved his hand and laughed heartily: "I haven't been back to Yejiabao for a long time. I am happy to see that my clan members are still the same, so I will skip these customs."

"Seeing that Uncle Six is in good health, the boys are all relieved." Ye Zhantian could only call himself a boy in front of Ye Cangxuan.

"Uncle Six, you came all the way back without bringing a gift for your nephew, right?" Ye Zhanlong said with a smile. He was the closest to Ye Cangxuan, and others would not dare to talk to Ye Cangxuan like this.

"Of course I won't miss you." Ye Cangxuan laughed and threw a brocade box to Ye Zhanlong.

Ye Zhanlong opened the brocade box, and a strange fragrance floated out. His eyebrows trembled, showing excitement, and he quickly put the things away: "Thank you, Uncle Liu."

Ye Moyang on the side just glanced at it and felt jealous and wanted to vomit blood. What Ye Cangxuan gave to Ye Zhanlong was actually a Qi Condensing Pill. You must know that he managed to get one from Yunjiabao. Ye Cangxuan actually gave one of the Qi Condensing Pills to Ye Zhanlong casually.

Ye Cangxuan has loved Ye Zhanlong even more than his own son since he was a child. Others present did not dare to ask Ye Cangxuan for anything.

"I have prepared something for each of you, and someone will send it to you when the time comes." Ye Cangxuan said. The things given to others are naturally not as valuable as those given to Ye Zhanlong. But no one else dared to say anything.

They chatted for a while and then sat down one after another.

While everyone was talking, the celebration below had already begun, with dragon and lion dances and firecrackers blasting. It was so lively.

"In the past five years since I was away, Yejiabao has been in a bit of a depression. Could it be that a powerful enemy has invaded?" Ye Cangxuan glanced at Ye Zhantian next to him and asked.

A slight smile appeared on Ye Moyang's lips, and he finally got to the point.

"Three years ago, Ye Chen was attacked and his meridians were severed..." Ye Zhantian said sadly, "We were worried about affecting Uncle Sixth's cultivation, so we never said anything."

Ye Cangxuan suddenly burst out with a powerful momentum. He was shocked and angry, and asked in a deep voice: "Who did it?" Five years ago, he used Xuan Qi to explore Ye Chen's meridians, and Ye Chen was among the younger generation. , has the best talent and the best chance to reach the ninth level. The future prosperity of the family will fall on Ye Chen's shoulders, but Ye Chen was unexpectedly attacked, which is tantamount to cutting off the future of the Ye family. …,

"It hasn't been determined yet," Ye Zhantian said.

"If I know who did it, I will ask them for an explanation!" Ye Cangxuan said solemnly, asking Ye Zhantian, "I wonder how Ye Chen's child is doing now?"

Ye Zhantian was about to speak when Ye Moyang suddenly interrupted: "Ye Chen's meridians were all severed when he was rescued. Three years ago, the clan leader ordered that the whole clan do its best to rescue him and collect Qi Gathering Pills everywhere to warm and nourish Ye Chen's meridians. These three In the past few years, Yejiapu's industry has declined from ten to fifty, so when Uncle Liu came in, Yejiapu was in a state of depression."

Hearing what Ye Moyang said, Ye Zhanlong, Ye Zhanxiong and others all had unhappy expressions on their faces. Ye Moyang clearly wanted to use the old patriarch's help to question Ye Zhantian.

"But we can't ignore Chen'er's life and death and let it go!" Ye Zhanlong said from the side.

Ye Cangxuan looked at Ye Moyang indifferently and asked, "If you were the clan leader and encountered the same thing, what would you do?"

Ye Moyang's heart skipped a beat when he heard Ye Cangxuan's words. If he had been given the position of clan leader back then, Yejiabao would never have been reduced to what it is now, saying: "How can personal affairs be placed above the interests of the family! "

Ye Cangxuan said calmly: "It was precisely for this reason that I didn't give you the position of clan leader. What is a personal relationship and what are family interests? What is a clan? If the clan cannot provide protection to the clan members, it will not even care about the life and death of the clan members. Then what is the use of the clan? If there are people with other surnames who bully my Ye family, we should use all our strength to deal with them, even if we die, we will have no regrets. If there are people in the clan who are seriously injured and sick, we should use all the family's resources to deal with them. Wealth, poverty, but also treatment, this is the patriarch of my Ye family, the backbone of the family! Even if Zhan Tian retires, the next patriarch of the Ye family should be like this!"

Ye Moyang's face turned red and he wanted to argue, but his mouth moved but nothing came out.

Ye Chen stood among the juniors. Ye Cangxuan's words made Ye Chen's eyes wet. From today on, he had a strong respect for this uncle who had not been seen for a long time. Thinking about his daily life Ye Chen secretly kept the word clan in his heart because of the kindness his uncles and many brothers had shown him.

"Old clan leader, clan leader, before worshiping the ancestors, the younger generation will hold a competition to select the successor clan leader. Should it start now?" asked a clan member next to him.

Ye Cangxuan sighed. Since Ye Chen's meridians are broken and it is irreversible, he can only forget it and see if there can be a leader among the younger generation. This Yejiabao wants to survive in troubled times. To survive, someone still has to stand up. The news that Ye Zhanxiong's daughter Ye Xuan has obtained the entry qualification of Qingyun Sect made him quite gratified. He waved his hand and said: "Let's get started."
