Chapter 127 Ye Xun's Downfall

Another day off.

Muchen and Ye Shi were busy preparing for the battle and did not leave the academy, but Ye Rong couldn't wait to go out.

Ye Rong spent all the 50,000 yuan stones in the blink of an eye. Thinking that Ye Xun had 3 million yuan in his hands, he could always spare some for her, so she left the academy with full of expectations.

When Ye Rong arrived at the villa that Ye Xun rented, she found out that Ye Xun had been kicked out a few days ago because he could not pay the Yuanshi.

Upon hearing this news, Ye Rong couldn't help but feel puzzled, and a sense of foreboding appeared in her heart. Ye Xun had three million Yuanshi in his hand, and even if Ye Xun was good at spending, he wouldn't have spent it all so quickly!

Ye Rong asked around and found Ye Xunxin's residence.

Ye Xun's new residence was shabby, small, dirty, and full of all kinds of people. It took Ye Rong a long time to confirm that Ye Xun really lived there.

Ye Rong walked into the cabin and saw Ye Xun lying on the bed weakly, looking extremely decadent.

"Father." Ye Rong frowned and called out.

When Ye Xun saw Ye Rong, his eyes widened immediately. "Rong'er, it's you! Do you have any Yuanshi? Give some to your father."

Ye Rong didn't expect that the first thing Ye Xun said when he saw her was this. She was immediately disappointed. She came here to ask Ye Xun for money! Why was Ye Xun asking her for money instead?

"Father, don't you have three million yuan stones?" Ye Rong asked with a frown.

Ye Xun frowned and said unhappily, "It's only three million. What good can it do? I've already spent it all."

Ye Rong was stunned. That was three million! She was so distressed that she trembled all over.

"Where's father and mother?" Ye Rong looked around the room and found that there was not even a dressing table. She felt a little strange. Wang Li was the one who paid the most attention to her appearance. Even if she was in such a poor state, there shouldn't be even a mirror in this room!

Ye Xun's eyes dodged for a moment, and he said angrily: "Don't worry about her. She saw that I was down and out, so she followed a rich man and ran away."

Ye Rong was stunned for a moment, full of disbelief, "Mother ran away, Father, could you have made a mistake?"

"How could I be wrong? She just ran away with someone else." Ye Xun said sullenly.

Ye Rong looked at Ye Xun's expression and couldn't help but feel a little more suspicious.

Ye Rong and Ye Xun argued about the Yuanshi matter, but seeing that they could not gain any benefit, they had to leave in disappointment.

Ye Rong walked out the door and thought about what her father said about her mother being with a rich man, and she couldn't help but think more.

After some inquiries, Ye Rong found out that Wang Li did not run away with a rich man, but Ye Xun had run out of money and sold Wang Li to a brothel.

Although Ye Rong was shaking with anger, she did not have the confidence to argue with Ye Xun, and returned to the academy in a daze.

…………

"Ye Rong, why did you come back so soon?" Lou Ruoyi asked.

Ye Rong smiled bitterly. She had no money and only had two relatives in the imperial capital. One was in a poor state, and the other had become... a prostitute.

The situation is so bad that there is no point for her to stay outside.

"There's a letter for you. The person who delivered it seemed very anxious. He asked you to open it yourself. Please take a look at it quickly." Mi Xue handed a letter to Ye Rong.

Ye Rong opened the letter, read it, and her expression changed several times.

The letter was written by Wang Li, in which Wang Li cursed Ye Xun for being unkind and unjust, and for selling her to a brothel for 150,000 yuan.

After reading the letter, Ye Rong found out that Ye Xun had become addicted to gambling and owed a huge amount of money to the casino. Now, for the sake of gambling, Ye Xun has turned his back on all his relatives.

Ye Rong frowned. She couldn't understand why Ye Xun had become so destitute. After reading the letter, she finally understood.

"Ye Rong, what did the letter say?" Bai Le asked.

Ye Rong shook her head and said, "Nothing."

Seeing Ye Rong's unhappy expression, Bai Le didn't ask any further questions.

Wang Li asked for help in the letter. Ye Rong frowned. Wang Li was sold to a brothel by Ye Xun for 150,000 yuan. If she wanted to redeem her, she would need at least 200,000 yuan. Where would she get so many yuan?

No matter what, she is a student of the Holy Star Academy and has a noble status. How could she have a mother who is a prostitute?

Ye Rong hid from several roommates and turned the letter into ashes.

Wang Li was under very strict surveillance in the brothel. She had spent a lot of effort to ask someone to deliver this letter for help. Unfortunately, Ye Rong ruthlessly wiped out her hope.

…………

Ye Shi was concentrating on reading the formation book, and he didn't notice Jing Chiyan coming in for a long time.

Only after a light cough sounded in Ye Shi's ears did he raise his head.

Ye Shi looked at Jing Chiyan in surprise and asked in confusion: "Master, when did you come?"

Jing Chiyan narrowed his eyes and said in a bad tone, "I've been here for a while." His own disciple's alertness was so low, it was really...

"Oh." Ye Shi nodded lightly.

Jing Chiyan rolled his eyes at Ye Shi's reaction and asked, "I heard that you haven't been doing your job properly these days?"

"Not doing your job? No!" Ye Shi frowned in confusion.

"You said no, but I heard that you were studying formations. You even told the president of the court that if you have any questions about formations, you can ask you for advice." Jing Chiyan said with some amusement.

Ye Shi rolled his eyes and said, "So, that old man is the dean of the Formation Court! He left without asking me any questions. He really underestimates me! If you have any questions, you can discuss them! Maybe I'll know the answers."

Jing Chiyan's mouth twitched, "You seem very confident..."

Hao Tu, the dean of the Formation Court, looks like a simple-minded person with strong limbs, but in fact, he has been immersed in the art of formation for many years and is an outstanding fourth-level formation master. His own apprentice actually wants to discuss it with him.

Ye Shi nodded and said confidently, "I feel like my formation skills have improved by leaps and bounds recently. Maybe I can actually participate in the Formation Court competition."

"Stop having these random thoughts. Muchen has led you astray. Your mission is to practice, practice, and practice. It's best to break through to become a martial spirit as soon as possible. Don't be like Muchen, learning a little bit of everything but mastering nothing." Jing Chiyan said unhappily.

Ye Shi retorted dissatisfiedly, "Master, don't say that about Muchen. Muchen is not someone who has learned a little bit of everything and is not proficient in anything! He is proficient in everything."

"Is he proficient in it? He has learned so many techniques, but none of them is level four. You may not know that there is a level four inscription master among the people who came this time." Jing Chiyan said disapprovingly.

"What's the use of being at level four? He's already that old. By the time Mu Chen reaches his age, he'll be a level five inscription master." Ye Shi said with disdain.

"He's only fifteen years old." Jing Chiyan said helplessly. Fifteen is not a very old age. Although he is from a hostile force, his strength is really not bad.

Ye Shi curled his lips and said, "Yeah! She's already fifteen, so much older than Mu Chen!"

Jing Chiyan: “…” Only one year older.

"Disciple, the spiritual energy in your room is quite good!" Seeing that he and Ye Shi could not reach a consensus on the issue of Muchen, Jing Chiyan simply changed the subject.

Ye Shi nodded and said, "Yes! I placed a few Juyuan formations in the house, but the effect is not particularly great."

"The Juyuan Formation, was it given to you by Mu Chen again?" Jing Chiyan asked.

Ye Shi shook his head and said, "No! I made it myself."

Jing Chiyan was stunned for a moment and said, "Did you do it yourself?"

Ye Shi nodded and said, "Yes!"

The Yuan Gathering Formation can subtly change the concentration of Yuan Qi in the room. Ye Shi uses Yuan Stones for cultivation, so this concentration of Yuan Qi does not have much effect on his cultivation. However, people will feel more comfortable in the room.

Jing Chiyan said in surprise: "You really have some talent for formations!"

Ye Shi said proudly, "Of course, Muchen said I'm a genius in formations."

"You are nothing but a genius. What you need to do is practice, practice, and practice again. As for the elixir, ask Muchen for it. As for weapons, ask Muchen for them. As for the formation plate, ask Muchen for them. As for the Yuanshi, ask Muchen for them. Don't worry, that kid is so good at making money that he has no place to spend the Yuanshi. He will be grateful to you if you help him spend the Yuanshi!" Jing Chiyan smiled coldly.

When Jing Chiyan was at the martial artist level, he was extremely poor. Seeing Mu Chen doing so well, he suddenly felt a little jealous.

Ye Shi rolled his eyes helplessly and said, "I can't rely on Mu Chen for everything."

Jing Chiyan rolled his eyes. His disciple was really honest.

"This Juyuan Formation is a second-level formation, right? Are you a second-level formation master?" Jing Chiyan frowned.

Ye Shi nodded and said, "Yes!"

Jing Chiyan looked at Ye Shi in shock. Ye Shi's interest in battle formations seemed to have only recently emerged. Could it be that he also had the same talent as Muchen?

"Master, what's wrong with you?" Ye Shi asked.

Jing Chiyan said helplessly: "If you want to study the formation, then study it. Don't delay your cultivation."

Ye Shi nodded and said, "I understand."

…………

After Mu Chen had been in seclusion for five days, rays of green light emerged from his house, and the scene was spectacular.

Hao Tu waited for Muchen to come out every day. When he saw any movement in Muchen's house, he was immediately overjoyed.

When the change started, several experts quickly gathered around Muchen's house.

"Dean, Mu Chen made such a big fuss. He should be out of confinement after he's done making trouble." Di Han said excitedly.

Hao Tu nodded and said in deep agreement: "That's right."

"Such a strong power of fire! I wonder what's going on." Di Han muttered.

Hao Tu stroked his beard and said, "Wait until he comes out and ask him and we'll know."

Mu Chen opened the door and walked out.

Hao Tu looked at Muchen and was stunned. Muchen's eyes were glowing green. His strength had reached the peak of a nine-star martial artist, and he was about to break through and become a martial spirit.

Just as Hao Tu was about to speak, Mu Chen had already flown towards the top of Xiong Wei's hill and ignored them.

Hao Tu looked at Muchen's back and immediately became furious.

"This brat." Hao Tu was furious.

"This guy is so fast!" Di Han couldn't help but say.

"Chase him! Chase him!" Hao Tu said anxiously.

Upon hearing this, Di Han quickly chased in the direction Mu Chen left, "The quarry is ahead."

Hao Tu stopped reluctantly. The quarry was Xiong Wei's territory, that man's territory, and he couldn't break into it easily. It would not be a fun thing to piss that guy off.
