【Chapter 156】Grandfather's Tribulation
【Chapter 156】Grandfather's Tribulation
"Dear seniors, since the ancestors of the Ye family do not accept us, the two juniors will take their leave first." After saying that, Ye Yishen bowed to everyone in the Ye family, pulled Nangong Chenyu and walked out of the ancestral hall.
"Wait a moment."
Patriarch Ye Er quickly called out to the two of them.
He had tolerated the two of them for several days and had given away so many spirit stones for nothing, so he naturally couldn't let them leave like that. No matter when it happens today, Ye Yishen must be allowed to return to his roots.
Only in this way, when Yun Juegong asks about the two of them later, will he be able to respond.
The two men stopped at the door, and Ye Yisheng turned around and asked, "Senior, is there anything else?"
The distant address made Elder Ye Er's mouth twitch involuntarily.
“Yisheng, even if you don’t want to return to your ancestral roots, the fact that you have the blood of the Ye family flowing in your body cannot be changed.”
The fact that all the ancestral tablets fell down was too weird. Regardless of whether it was because the ancestors could not bear Ye Yisheng's kneeling, he had to insist that it was Ye Yisheng who did this deliberately because he did not want to recognize his ancestors.
Only in this way can Ye Yishen kneel down to worship his ancestors again and continue to trace his roots, so that Ye Yishen's name can be written in the family tree.
Ye Yisheng sneered: "What do you mean by that, senior?"
Patriarch Ye Er didn't say anything, but snapped his fingers.
The next moment, two Nascent Soul cultivators appeared in the ancestral hall.
Elder Ye Er said to the two men, "Tell us what you saw the night before five days ago."
Fortunately, his eyelids were twitching badly last night, so he made a temporary backup plan.
"Five nights ago, the two of us were on patrol in the mansion. In the early hours of the morning, we saw a dark figure coming out of the Biluo Garden, and then sneaking around the mansion."
"Because the black shadow was so fast, we couldn't catch up. Therefore, we don't know where the other party stayed in the mansion. The only thing we can be sure of is that the black shadow came to the ancestral hall."
The fourth elder asked coldly, "Since you said you couldn't catch up with that black shadow, how can you be sure that the other party has been to the ancestral hall?"
One of them replied: "When we were chasing after them, we saw the black shadow leaving the ancestral hall."
Instantly, the Fourth Elder's expression turned extremely gloomy: "The ancestral hall is protected by a formation, and the jade tokens for entering and exiting the ancestral hall are in my hand and the other one is in the hand of the family head."
"Do you still want to say that it was me or the head of the family who gave the formation jade token to Yisheng? And Yisheng gave the jade token to the black shadow you mentioned?"
Everyone else looked at the two Nascent Souls with unfriendly eyes. The fourth elder and the patriarch would at most personally bring Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen to the ancestral hall, and they would definitely not hand over the formation jade slip.
The two Nascent Soul cultivators obviously also knew this.
In this situation, all they have to do is keep their heads down and remain silent.
The third elder then asked, "Did you really see that black shadow coming out of the Azure Palace?"
Patriarch Ye Er waved his hand, signaling the two to go down.
He took over the Third Elder's words: "Third Elder, don't doubt it. After they reported the matter to me the next day, I specifically asked Yisheng and Nangong. Nangong admitted personally that the black shadow that ran out of Biluo Garden was the white cat they brought back."
The third elder chuckled twice: "It's just an ordinary white cat, but your people say it's magical."
"At first I thought it was just an ordinary white cat, but have you ever seen an ordinary white cat so fast that even a Yuanying stage cultivator couldn't catch up?"
When saying this, Elder Ye Er deliberately glanced at Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen.
He wanted to see how the two would respond this time.
Looking at the expressions of the crowd, Ye Yishen knew that they were obviously more interested in the white tiger than in watching him return to his ancestral home.
"If I didn't want to return to my ancestral roots, why would I have participated in the competition among the four great families after knowing that I was a disciple of the Ye family?"
"As for the white cat, we have told you before that its owner is Daojun Haoyan. A Yu and I are only responsible for feeding it and cannot command it."
When they heard that the white cat belonged to Taoist Haoyan, everyone immediately stopped discussing the white cat's thoughts.
Elder Ye Er pointed at the fallen tablets and asked, "So, these tablets fell down because of you, right?"
Nangong Chenyu rolled his eyes at the Second Patriarch Ye. In order to make Ye Yishen continue to recognize his ancestry, the Second Patriarch Ye really did everything he could.
"Senior, do you want us to swear a heavenly oath?"
"That's not necessary. If Yisheng really wants to return to his ancestral home, then continue with the ceremony."
Elder Ye Er has already decided that when Ye Yisheng kneels down to worship, he will imprison all the tablets. He just didn't believe that the tablets could fall over again.
With a slight raise of his hand, all the upside-down tablets stood up.
Then he took out three incense sticks and handed them to Ye Yisheng.
Ye Yishen was not opposed to burning incense to the ancestors of the Ye family, but just as he was about to reach out to take it, something unexpected happened.
The spiritual energy in the Ye Mansion suddenly rioted.
In an instant, Elder Ye Er's face became so gloomy that water could drip out of it. Who on earth broke through at this time and ruined his plan?
Everyone ran out of the ancestral hall immediately.
With a little sensing, everyone found the source of the spiritual energy chaos.
The elders looked at each other and immediately headed in one direction.
Seeing them leave, Elder Ye Er's frown immediately relaxed: "It should be that elder in the clan who has made a breakthrough. Since Elder Three and his men have already gone there, the others can follow me back to the ancestral hall..."
The following words came to an abrupt end when he saw Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen disappear around the corner.
Everyone only felt a breeze blowing by, and the figure of Patriarch Ye Er disappeared on the spot.
"Let's go take a look too."
As soon as these words were spoken, the remaining people rushed to the source of the spiritual energy chaos. But before everyone arrived, they saw a person suddenly standing in the air in the mansion.
"It's the head of the family."
"Hiss~ The master's cultivation has actually broken through to the Spiritual Transformation Stage."
After flying out of the small secret realm, Ye Chenyuan restrained his aura and looked up at the sky. Seeing that the dark clouds did not gather, he breathed a sigh of relief. With a sweep of his spiritual sense, he immediately locked onto Elder Ye Er.
When he saw that the person coming out of the small secret realm was Ye Chenyuan, the second ancestor Ye's pupils shook.
The two looked at each other from a distance.
Killing intent spread in the eyes of both of them.
The pressure from the Spirit Transformation Stage swept across the entire Ye Mansion.
In a moment, the pressure disappeared.
"I need to go outside the city to survive the tribulation. I would like to trouble the Second Ancestor and the elders to protect me."
After leaving these words, Ye Chenyuan's figure disappeared into the air. Also disappearing with him were Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen.
Looking at the direction the three people left, Elder Ye Er gnashed his teeth in hatred. Damn Ye Chenyuan, he didn’t break through earlier or later, but at this moment.
He had clearly imprisoned Ye Chenyuan with the Soul-Binding Chain, so why was Ye Chenyuan still able to absorb spiritual energy? And he even broke through to the Spirit Transformation Stage?
Seeing that he was standing still, the Third Elder shouted, "Second Ancestor, let's go first."
Without waiting for his answer, several elders turned into streaks of light and disappeared into the sky.
On a barren mountain.
Ye Chenyuan put Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yisheng down and said, "I need to survive the tribulation. You two stay here and wait for me. We can talk about everything after I've survived the tribulation."
Ye Chenyuan's words were still echoing in the ears of the two men, and he was already standing in the center of a flat ground.
Nangong Chenyu was holding the stone sculpture of a monster that Ye Chenyuan had returned.
After a while, the sky above Ye Chenyuan's head was covered with dark clouds.
Several elders arrived one after another.
But the second ancestor Ye came, but did not show up.
"Boom~" A crack suddenly appeared in the sky, and white lightning flashed out like a dragon and snake, with the power to destroy the world, and headed straight for Ye Chenyuan.
Ye Chenyuan formed seals with his hands, and a dazzling golden light flew out from his hands and hit the falling lightning.
Several people on the periphery stared without blinking.
After taking the first thunder tribulation, Ye Chenyuan did not suffer any injuries except that his appearance was a little embarrassed by the lightning.
Ye Yisheng opened his eyes wide, "Is this the power of the lightning tribulation of the Spiritual Transformation Stage?"
The fourth elder thought he was afraid of the thunder tribulation, so he comforted him, "Don't be afraid, you are only in the foundation-building stage. Every time a cultivator breaks through a major realm, his physical fitness will improve."
"In addition to this, you can also refine your body, which will make it easier to overcome the tribulation."
Ye Yishen: He just felt that Ye Chenyuan's Divine Transformation Thunder Tribulation was about the same power as Nangong Chenyu's Golden Core Thunder Tribulation, and he was not afraid.
After all, the Fourth Elder had good intentions. Ye Yisheng thanked him and said, "Thank you for your advice, Fourth Elder."
The fourth elder waved his hand nonchalantly.
As the first bolt of thunder fell, more dark clouds gathered.
Soon the second, the third... thunder became more and more dense, and its power increased exponentially. Each one was enough to turn an ordinary cultivator into ashes.
It is obvious that Ye Chenyuan is not an ordinary cultivator.
Over the years, no matter how hard he practiced, he could not make a breakthrough. After that, he focused on body training, and his current physical fitness is completely comparable to that of a physical cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Stage.
Seeing Ye Chenyuan overcoming the tribulation with ease, Nangong Chenyu was stunned.
He once overcame tribulation so easily.
Sadly, that was only the past.
Finally, after an unknown amount of time, the dark clouds in the sky began to dissipate, and the sunset glowed half the sky red.
Suddenly, an attack struck Ye Chenyuan's back.
"Master, be careful."
The few people who saw this scene from the outside were so frightened that their faces turned pale.
Ye Chenyuan seemed to have eyes on his back before the attack landed on him. He dodged the attack successfully.
Although he was not attacked, his movement triggered the injury he suffered from the robbery, and he couldn't help but spit out blood.
"puff--"
As soon as he stood firm, another attack followed.
Apparently there were at least two people who launched the sneak attack.
And they are all cultivators in the God Transformation Stage.
The other party obviously wanted to kill him when he had just survived the thunder tribulation and was at his weakest.
The gorgeous attack was getting closer and closer to him. Just as he was trying to forcefully mobilize his spiritual energy to dodge it, he was enveloped by a shadow. Immediately afterwards, Nangong Chenyu's voice sounded in his ears.
"Grandfather, you should have a good rest and don't worry about the people who attacked you from behind."
Nangong Chenyu released three stone sculptures of demon beasts in the Nascent Soul stage in succession. There were three people in the dark, two of them attacked Ye Chenyuan, and the remaining one was watching.
