Jiangdu, Yuwen clan.
Yuwen Huaji belatedly received a message from Yang Xuyan via carrier pigeon, informing him that his ancestor had died.
The dozens of experts that the patriarch brought were also killed by Lin Bufan.
At Cihang Jingzhai, Lin Bufan wiped out one-third of the experts from the Yuwen Clan.
This is a disgrace, an utter disgrace.
Lin Bufan has become incredibly arrogant, daring to kill so many people.
Enraged, Yuwen Huaji smashed the table with his fist.
"Brother, please don't be angry. Your injuries haven't healed yet."
No sooner had Yuwen Wudi finished speaking than Yuwen Huaji spat out another mouthful of blood.
His injuries hadn't healed, but he desperately wanted revenge and to get rid of Lin Bufan as soon as possible.
Yuwen Chengdu was also so angry that he bared his teeth.
The last time he was kicked out by Lin Bufan in the dilapidated temple, his chest still ached.
"Lin Bufan, if I ever meet him again, I'll kill him even if it means we both die."
As Yuwen Chengdu was making his vow, his subordinates suddenly came to report that the Emperor had arrived.
"Your Majesty?" The entire Yuwen family was taken aback.
Soon after, Yang Guang arrived with a large group of people and strode into Yuwen Huaji's room.
Behind him, besides his personal guards, were also experts from the Dugu Clan.
Dugu Feng – the leader of the Dugu clan, with a cultivation level of half-step Heaven Realm.
Dugu Ce – son of Dugu Feng, a rising star of the Dugu clan, similar to Yuwen Chengdu of the Yuwen clan.
Dugu Sheng—Dugu Feng's brother, similar to Yuwen Wudi of the Yuwen Clan.
In terms of kinship, the Yuwen clan were remnants of the Northern Zhou dynasty, while the Dugu clan were the true imperial relatives.
Because Yang Guang's mother, Empress Dugu, came from the Dugu clan.
Therefore, when the Yuwen clan ran into trouble and failed to handle matters effectively, Yang Guang came to question them.
"General Yuwen, I ordered you to go to Yangzhou to seize the Longevity Formula, how did you end up like this?"
"Your Majesty, please calm down. A young man named Lin Bufan caused trouble. He stole the Longevity Formula and injured me."
Yuwen Huaji got out of bed and said respectfully, "That kid's martial arts are extremely high. He even killed our ancestor."
"Oh? Is that so?"
Yang Guang's expression changed, and the members of the Dugu clan around him exchanged bewildered glances.
Especially the leader of the Dugu clan, who had sparred with the Yuwen patriarch, and only slightly won after a three-hundred-round battle.
This kid was able to kill Ancestor Yuwen, which means that his martial arts skills are on par with mine.
However, this is not a problem. Even if this person's martial arts skills are as high as his own, with his son and brothers by his side, he can still kill this person.
"My dear minister, do you have a way to deal with this person?" Yang Guang turned to ask the Dugu clan leader.
The Dugu Clan leader said confidently, "With Ce'er and Asheng added, killing Lin Bufan won't be a problem."
"That's good. Let's go find Lin Bufan and ask for the Longevity Formula. I will personally lead the expedition."
What? The emperor himself is leading the expedition?
The imperial guards were terrified and hurriedly tried to stop Yang Guang, saying that the traitor was dangerous.
Yang Guang insisted on his own way, saying, "With Minister Dugu here, who can harm me? Moreover, I am blessed with the fortune of the Yellow Dragon and have a long and fortunate life."
The head of the Dugu clan also assured him, "Don't worry, with me here, His Majesty will be fine."
Yang Guang trusted the strength of the Dugu clan leader and was very reassured. He then asked Yuwen Huaji and Lin Bufan, the traitors, where they were.
Yuwen Huaji said he went to Chang'an City, and that this man was planning to steal from Yang Gong's treasure trove.
"Chang'an City, is it? Very well, I will immediately lead men to Chang'an City and personally arrest Lin Bufan."
Yang Guang left with his personal guards and the Dugu clan.
Yuwen Huaji called his son and Yuwen Wudi to follow him, instructing them to seize the Longevity Formula amidst the chaos.
If the Dugu Clan and Lin Bufan fight to the death, they can also take away the treasures from Yang Gong's treasury.
In short, Yuwen Valve must gain some benefit.
Yuwen Chengdu and Yuwen Wudi quickly led their men to follow.
Yuwen Huaji was not idle either. He endured the pain and forced himself to get down, entered the secret room, and took out the supreme secret of the long-sealed Ice Profound Force manual - the tenth level of peak force.
The ancestor has only reached the eighth level and is preparing to break through to the ninth level.
Unexpectedly, before he could even reach the ninth level, he was killed by Lin Bufan.
Yuwen Huaji had only reached the seventh level of cultivation, but decided to take a risk and skip the eighth and ninth levels to directly attempt the tenth level.
It's all or nothing; you might even go mad and die.
But for the sake of the Yuwen family and for revenge, he had no choice but to try.
"Lin Bufan, if I die from going mad while practicing martial arts, I will haunt you even as a ghost."
Yuwen Huaji angrily uttered a vicious curse, then sat down to begin cultivating the peak of the Ice Profound Force.
Now, let's turn to Chang'an.
Before the arrival of the various forces, Lin Bufan, Shi Qingxuan, Shi Feixuan, Hou Xibai, and the young monk had already arrived.
Where is Yang Gong's treasure trove?
Shi Feixuan and Shi Qingxuan were unaware of this, but Lin Bufan did.
There are mechanisms at the bottom of the moat, near the Yuema Bridge.
When the sunlight or moonlight aligns at a specific time, that is when the Yang Gong Treasure Trove is revealed.
Several people waited for the sun on Yuema Bridge.
At noon, I finally saw the three points aligned in a straight line, pointing in a clear and distinct direction.
"Over there."
The young monk excitedly ran down the bridge, and Lin Bufan flew over as well.
With a loud bang, the ground exploded, creating a deep crater.
Below the deep pit is a long staircase leading to Yang Gong's treasure vault.
The young monk, disregarding the dangers and traps, heard that there were good things down below and happily ran down, quickly disappearing into the darkness.
"Junior Uncle, be careful." Shi Feixuan hurriedly followed after him.
Lin Bufan, Shi Qingxuan, and Hou Xibai followed closely behind.
A moment later, the steps came to an end, and the view opened up, like an underground palace.
