"Elder Ghost!"

A servant boy came to the Ghost Lord late at night and whispered something in his ear.

"Is this true? Has it been thoroughly investigated?" Upon hearing the news that the servant had just received, Gui Bo was somewhat skeptical about whether the news was accurate.

The servant seemed extremely confident in the information he had gathered, so he still dared to report with absolute certainty: "Elder! The news is true! The young master who left us crippled the elder of the Haoqi Sect, a Golden Core Realm expert, with a single sword strike. Now, he has purged the entire Song family. Everything in the Song family is now under the control of the Song siblings."

Seeing that the news was so certain, Uncle Gui naturally had no more doubts.

He waved his hand, dismissing the servant.

One person in the courtyard couldn't help but sigh, "I really didn't expect that this person could actually challenge a Golden Core Realm expert with only a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation level!"

"Uncle Gui, what are you muttering about in the courtyard all by yourself!" The young girl, Lin Yan, was still awake so late, and was even out in her clothes.

"Young Miss!" Uncle Gui immediately felt guilty, thinking that he had disturbed the young lady's rest, and immediately bowed to apologize.

"Uncle Gui, this is none of your business. I can't sleep, why don't you talk to me?" Lin Yan seems to be having trouble sleeping tonight.

Seeing that the young lady couldn't sleep, Uncle Gui immediately realized that it must be because she had seen Ye Liang tonight, and that she was too excited to sleep!

However, I felt it was just right.

Because it was just the right time to tell the young lady about that person that very night.

"Young Miss, we just received news. The matter of the Song family is settled! The mastermind behind the Song family's affairs, the elder of the Haoqi Sect, a Golden Core realm expert, had his Golden Core crippled by Young Master Ye with a single sword strike. The Haoqi Sect has suffered a huge loss; not only have they lost face, but they've also lost a Golden Core realm expert!"

Upon hearing this, the young girl Lin Yan was also somewhat surprised and could not immediately believe it.

After being shocked for a while, he was able to calm down and sit down again to continue talking to Gui Bo: "He can really cripple a Golden Core Realm expert? Doesn't that mean Gui Bo is no match for him?"

These words made Uncle Gui laugh.

Gui Bo said, "No, no!"

"What?" Young Miss Lin Yan asked casually, her mind filled with curiosity.

Gui Bo understood the young lady's question and immediately replied, "Not all Golden Core Realm experts are the same. That worthless elder of the Haoqi Sect is nothing in my eyes. How could he compare to me! Killing him would be as easy as slaughtering a chicken or a duck! However, Young Master Ye Liang, with your Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation, being able to defeat this Golden Core Realm expert still greatly shocks me. Although I look down on that person, Young Master Ye Liang is not a Golden Core Realm expert like myself. To be able to defeat a Golden Core Realm expert with only Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation..." To challenge a Golden Core Realm expert, even if that expert is the weakest and most useless in their realm, is still a Golden Core Realm expert. For him to win and even cripple their Golden Core with a single sword strike is truly remarkable. In the martial world, this old servant has never heard of any juniors as powerful as him! Young Miss, if you could fully control our sect's treasure, the Yellow Spring Umbrella, it would be easy. After all, our Yellow Spring Umbrella has such a great reputation, renowned throughout the martial world. Just taking it out, without even actually using it, is enough to terrify a whole bunch of people!"

"I was a little skeptical just now that my Brother Ye could defeat a Golden Core Realm expert. But when Uncle Gui mentioned the Yellow Spring Umbrella, I suddenly wasn't so surprised anymore. Brother Ye can repair the Yellow Spring Umbrella for me with just a wave of his hand; his strength must be unfathomable." The young girl, Lin Yan, said with a hint of self-deprecation.

Gui Bo misunderstood, thinking that the young lady's confidence had been shaken by Ye Liang, and immediately comforted her, saying, "Young lady, don't be discouraged. You are the most talented person I have ever seen in the world. If it weren't for the Yellow Spring Umbrella constantly holding you back all these years, you would probably have already reached the Core Formation stage, or even the Golden Core stage!"

Before Uncle Gui could finish speaking, Lin Yan greeted him with a radiant smile, saying, "Uncle Gui, you're mistaken. I'm not jealous that my brother Ye is stronger than me; I'm happy that he's stronger than me. Don't you think it's something to be happy about to have a powerful older brother looking after you?"

"Uh!" Uncle Gui suddenly realized that even he, an old man, couldn't see through a girl's thoughts.

He immediately scratched his head sheepishly, unsure of what to say.

The young girl, Lin Yan, spoke to him with even more concern: "Uncle Gui, do you think the Haoqi Sect will target my Brother Ye after this incident? Although my Brother Ye's strength is unfathomable, he is ultimately alone. His sect doesn't have many members, just his senior sisters. The Haoqi Sect, however, has quite a few Golden Core elders. If they come to attack, my Brother Ye's situation will be much more difficult if he is alone and flees to deal with it. But with so many senior sisters with him, his situation will be much more challenging."

Uncle Gui immediately understood the young lady's unspoken meaning.

His young mistress, Lin Yan, was not only worried about Ye Liang's situation, but also wanted him, as the Ghost Uncle, and even the entire Ghost Fiend Sect, to make certain mobilizations to support her Brother Ye.

Gui Bo immediately smiled and said, "Young Miss, don't worry. Anyway, we've always disliked the Haoqi Sect. This old servant will make some arrangements to make it difficult for the Haoqi Sect to cause trouble for Young Master Ye. Our Gui Sha Sect is not lacking in experts. We can easily put a lot of pressure on the Haoqi Sect and keep them busy with their own problems!"
