Hai Yucheng, who killed Yan Ying's grandfather, was not a cultivator in the Xuanxian realm, but a cultivator in the Tianxian realm. The reason why he wanted to kill his junior brother Yan Dan was because of the "Xuanjin Yuantai".
Facts have proved that it is not good for a person to trust others too easily. For example, Yan Dan trusted the people around him too much and told Hai Yucheng that he had the Xuanjin Yuantai.
Although Yan Dan himself did not know that the extremely strange jade was the Xuanjin Yuantai, he also knew that the origin of this jade was extraordinary and it was very valuable.
At first, Hai Yucheng didn't want to kill Yan Dan. He also wanted to buy the Xuanjin Yuantai, but unfortunately, Yan Dan's price was too high: 500,000 Jieyu jades! How could Hai Yucheng afford it?
Although this price is insignificant compared to the value of the Xuanjin Yuantai itself, it is still too high for Hai Yucheng.
Hai Yucheng and Yan Dan are both independent cultivators, but they have the same master, so they can be said to be brothers. Their master has passed away long ago.
The qualifications of these two brothers are not very good. Hai Yucheng's talent and understanding are better than Yan Dan's, but that's the limit of his realm of heavenly immortals.
However, it was already difficult for Yan Dan to improve his cultivation at the Xuanxian level, so the two of them had been searching for opportunities to break through the existing shackles over the years.
It's a pity that the opportunity fell to Yan Dan, but he didn't know the value of it. Instead, he took it out to sell it everywhere to show off, which eventually brought him a fatal disaster.
That day, Hai Yucheng asked Yan Dan out and killed him. After discovering that the Xuanjin Yuantai was not in Yan Dan's body, he immediately took Yan Dan's Sumeru magic weapon, and then returned to Dayong Fairy City to find Yan Ying.
Hai Yucheng confessed without hesitation that he had killed Yan Dan, and threatened Yan Ying to tell him the whereabouts of the Xuanjin Yuantai.
Yan Ying was already frightened at the time, and only came to her senses after being knocked to the ground by Hai Yucheng. Facing Hai Yucheng's questioning, Yan Ying just shook her head and said that she didn't know what the Xuanjin Yuantai was.
In fact, Yan Ying really didn’t know. How could he know something that even his grandfather didn’t know?
Hai Yucheng immediately launched a search of Yan Dan and Yan Ying's residence, but the funny thing was that he killed his junior brother for the Xuanjin Yuantai, and when the Xuanjin Yuantai appeared in front of him, he just glanced at it and didn't recognize it at all.
Although Yan Dan did not recognize the Xuanjin Yuantai, he knew that it was very valuable. He had to sell it for 500,000 Jieyu, so he naturally could not carry it with him. Instead, he used his magic power to seal it on the jade buckle of Yan Ying's belt as a decoration.
So Hai Yucheng clearly used his divine sense to scan the Xuanjin Yuantai, but did not recognize it. This must be God's will.
Hai Yucheng did not find the Xuanjin Yuantai, but he did not dare to kill Yan Ying, because this was Dayong Immortal City. As long as he dared to kill anyone, the formation above his head would immediately discover it, and then he would face the stranglehold of Taiyin Immortal Court.
This is also the reason why Yan Dan left the Xuanjin Yuantai on Yan Ying and did not take it with himself.
In the end, Hai Yucheng did not take Yan Ying away, but left a talisman on him to monitor him. Now Fang Jian saw Yan Ying and took him out of Dayong Fairy City. Hai Yucheng naturally knew all this through surveillance.
So he left Dayong Fairy City as soon as possible and flew all the way to Qingshui Valley.
When Hai Yucheng arrived outside Qingshui Valley, he saw a figure standing on a small hill outside Qingshui Valley. Hai Yucheng looked closely and found that it was one of the two people who took Yan Ying away.
Fang Jian stood on the small hilltop, holding a Huaguang whisk, and looked at Hai Yucheng who was coming in front of him on a cloud.
Hai Yucheng also looked at Fang Jian. After a moment, he urged the blue cloud under his feet and flew straight in front of Fang Jian.
"My name is Hai Yucheng, nice to meet you, fellow Taoist." After landing, Hai Yucheng bowed to Fang Jian.
Fang Jian returned the greeting with a bow and said, "My name is Fang, and I'm honored to meet you, Daoist Fellow Hai."
Hai Yucheng frowned slightly and asked, "'Surname Fang' or 'Fang'?"
"My common name is Fang." Fang Jian said with a smile.
Hai Yucheng nodded, then said, "Friend Fang, did you take Yan Ying away?"
"Yan Ying? You know him too?" Fang Jian asked.
Hai Yucheng said: "Of course, he is the grandson of my junior fellow apprentice, and my great-nephew."
Fang Jian laughed and said, "I'm afraid your nephew wouldn't call someone who killed his own grandfather 'Grandpa'?"
Hai Yucheng waved his hand and said, "This is our own business, you don't have to worry about it."
Fang Jian laughed heartily and immediately raised his right hand. In his palm was a piece of pure and translucent jade. "Is this what you're looking for?"
"Hmm?" Hai Yucheng's face changed immediately when he saw the Xuanjin Yuantai in Fang Jian's hand. "How did this thing end up in your hands?"
Fang Jian said, "Yandan sold it to me."
"Impossible! How could he sell my things to others? Did he get my consent?!" Hai Yucheng said sternly.
Fang Jian was shocked and said, "Your stuff? What makes you say that what I have is yours?"
Hai Yucheng said, "I found this by chance, but I was busy at the time, so I gave it to Yan Dan for safekeeping. I didn't expect him to want to take it for himself, so I had no choice but to kill him."
"No evidence whatsoever." Fang Jian said.
Hai Yucheng's face darkened when he heard this. Suddenly, a fairy light flashed around him, and the pressure of a Heavenly Immortal Realm cultivator was immediately released. "You are just a mere cultivator, and you dare to be so arrogant in front of me? You are courting death!"
After saying that, Hai Yucheng raised his hand and pointed at Fang Jian. A water sword suddenly condensed and instantly flew straight towards Fang Jian's eyebrows.
At the same time, Hai Yucheng moved, and his body quickly disappeared into the water vapor.
When the water sword was about an inch in front of Fang Jian's eyebrows, a flash of water light passed by Fang Jian's left side. Hai Yucheng instantly flew out of the water light and raised his hand to grab the Xuanjin Yuantai in Fang Jian's hand.
