763: Chapter 759: Burn It All!
Today, having defeated the Martial Artist of the Sima Family, every Martial Artist of the Night King Hall was extremely delighted; hence, the Black Widow whimsically offered a dance.
Although it had been a long time since she last performed ballet, the skill Black Widow possessed was something she simply couldn’t forget.
The Black Widow’s dance movements weren’t inferior to those of professional ballet dancers.
The only imperfection was the absence of music at the scene, so the Black Widow had to complete a ballet dance amidst the cheers of the Martial Artists…
Apart from the Black Widow, other Martial Artists also took turns showcasing their talents.
Some performed magic, some sang, and some told cross-talk or jokes… Even Ye Tian, the boss of the Night King Hall, didn’t expect his brothers to be so proficient in various arts.
All the Martial Artists indulged in the wine and gourmet dishes of the Sima Family.
These items had been stored in the cellar of the Sima Family’s main residence for quite some time, enough to satisfy the Martial Artists of the Night King Hall for three days and nights.
And the warriors did not hold back, eating and drinking voraciously.
Despite injuries that normally would prevent excessive drinking and eating meat, in their current joy, nobody cared…
Almost all the Martial Artists drank themselves into a stupor!
“Boss, we didn’t find anything!”
Ye Xuong sighed as he came up to Ye Tian’s side.
Although they found wine and treasures in the cellar of the Sima Family’s main residence, it was impossible for the Sima Family to have established their dominance in the world for hundreds of years solely on these items, right?
Therefore, Ye Tian had Ye Xuong search the Sima Family’s main residence thoroughly, digging three feet into the ground if necessary, to see if there were hidden martial arts secrets or Cultivation Techniques to harness the force of nature or such.
Unfortunately, despite all his efforts, Ye Xuong found nothing…
“You’ve worked hard, Ye Xuong.
Everyone’s enjoying themselves!
Join in quickly!”
Ye Tian said with a smile, realizing his expectations might have been a bit too high.
Even though he had defeated Sima Feng, the items he could obtain from the Sima Family’s main residence were less than he had hoped for…
“Boss, the people of the Sima Family all practiced the Wind Flow Strength Cultivation Technique.
This technique has always been orally transmitted within Tianmen for thousands of years, so there naturally wouldn’t be any manual or secrets for the technique.”
Ding Da whispered into Ye Tian’s ear, obviously aware of Ye Tian’s interest in the Wind Flow Strength technique…
“Heh, indeed!” Ye Tian chuckled and then turned to Ding Da, “Ding Da, your three brothers also practice Wind Flow Strength, but its power is quite inferior to Sima Feng’s.
Why did Tianmen teach you Wind Flow Strength?
What kind of organization is Tianmen?”
Facing Ye Tian’s queries, Ding Da could only give a wry smile and shake his head, saying, “Boss, we three brothers are merely Outer Sect Disciples for Tianmen.
To them, we’re insignificant.
How could we possibly know too much?
We just wanted to become stronger at that time, so naturally, when someone offered to teach us a more advanced technique, we took the opportunity and became disciples, even paying a hefty sum of money to the Qi Transmission Master!”
“They actually charged money?”
Ye Tian felt somewhat surprised.
How could the Qi Transmission Masters of Tianmen be like those running martial arts schools?
Given this, it seemed the quality of these Qi Transmission Masters wasn’t that great…
Ye Tian felt a prickling sense of unease regarding the enigmatic Tianmen.
Their motives seemed utterly unfathomable.
Since he had now clashed with the Sima Family’s people and even killed Sima Feng, who were Inner Sect Disciples of Tianmen, it was only a matter of time before he would be targeted by Tianmen.
Thus, Ye Tian had to be cautious…
“Boss, are you still worried about Tianmen?”
Ding Da noted Ye Tian’s troubled expression and asked with concern.
“Yes, after all, the Sima Family people belong to Tianmen.
You killing Sima Feng will indeed incur their resentment.
But rest assured, boss, the Night King Hall is not what it used to be.
Everyone has become stronger.
Even if Tianmen attacks, we won’t be afraid!”
Ding Da said proudly, thumping his chest.
Ye Tian looked at Ding Da and couldn’t help but nod.
“Indeed!
With brothers united, our combined strength can cut through metal!
With my brothers’ support, I shall fear no force!”
Ye Tian declared firmly, though he was very aware that Ding Da’s words were more bravado than reality.
The esteemed Tianmen, capable of training disciples like Sima Feng, naturally would not be easy to provoke.
With the current power of the Night King Hall, they were likely still no match for Tianmen…
“Boss, how shall we deal with the Great Ape King?”
Ding Er approached as Ding Da and Ye Tian were deep in conversation, and asked.
“The Great Ape King?”
Ye Tian glanced at Ding Er, puzzled.
Ding Er quickly explained, “Boss, have you forgotten?
The brain marrow of the Great Ape King enhances one’s cultivation!
But since this creature is extremely fierce, it’s rarely captured.
Last time we three brothers were lucky to come across an injured Great Ape King.
After consuming its brain marrow, our cultivation improved significantly.
So this time, we shouldn’t waste the brain marrow of the Great Ape King we’ve just defeated with difficulty!”
Ding Da said, his face alight with excitement.
Ye Tian then remembered the first time he encountered the Ding brothers.
Back then, he had wounded a Great Ape King which fled, and unexpectedly, the Ding brothers picked the low-hanging fruit…
It seemed that the brain marrow of the Great Ape King was indeed very tempting to Martial Artists!
However, Ye Xuong had only just managed to defeat a great ape king, and its brain marrow was so little, with twenty or thirty Martial Artists in the Night King Hall, how could that be enough to go around?
“Let Ye Xuong have it!
After all, it was he who defeated the great ape king!”
Ye Tian decided, and Ding Er immediately nodded, saying, “Yes!
Ye Xuong is so powerful to have defeated the great ape king, so he deserves the great ape king’s brain marrow without a doubt!”
With that, Ding Er approached Ye Xuong’s side.
Ye Xuong originally tried to decline, saying that the great ape king belonged to all the Martial Artists of the Night King Hall, but Ding Er said that this was the boss’s order.
Therefore, Ye Xuong half-heartedly joined Ding Er by the side of the great ape king’s corpse, then extracted and ate the brain marrow…
“Boss, this is the weapon used by Sima Feng, how should we deal with it?”
The Vampire Dracula came to Ye Tian’s side, handing over the jade flute used by Sima Feng to Ye Tian.
Ye Tian looked at the jade flute, feeling a mix of emotions…
Just like his wooden sword, this jade flute was also a Life Weapon, and in terms of rank, it was even higher than the wooden sword.
In Sima Feng’s hands, the jade flute was a weapon for creating puppets.
The sounds played from the jade flute could mesmerize Martial Artists who were at death’s door or already deceased.
However, turning Martial Artists into puppets to serve him was something Ye Tian had always disdained, so this Life Weapon must not remain!
Ye Tian held the jade flute in his hand, then said, “This jade flute is an instrument of harm, it cannot stay, I’ll just…”
Before he could finish speaking, a crisp voice suddenly rang out in Ye Tian’s mind!
“Don’t kill me!”
Ye Tian was shocked, where exactly was this voice coming from?
Upon closer inspection of the jade flute in his hand, Ye Tian suddenly realized!
Indeed, it was the jade flute in his hand that was speaking, and he had almost forgotten that a Life Weapon possesses sentience.
From the wooden sword in his own hand, he could hear an aged voice, which was coming from the millennium ancient tree’s Shu Xin…
And this jade flute, though he did not know what material it was made of, if it was a Life Weapon of a higher rank than the wooden sword, then naturally, this Life Weapon could also speak.
“Boss, what’s wrong?
You didn’t finish what you were saying just now?”
Seeing Ye Tian momentarily stunned, Dracula was somewhat surprised.
Ye Tian then came back to his senses and said, “Don’t destroy this thing for now, I’ll keep it for a while and see.”
“Yes!”
Dracula obeyed the command and then rejoined the reveling crowd.
Ye Tian watched the joyous demeanor of the Night King Hall Martial Artists, and although he was happy, he still felt worried…
After all, having uprooted the Sima Family’s estate, the Night King Hall had made quite a few enemies.
The main force of the Sima Family was currently combating the Martial Artists of the Ye Tribe at Lianghe Town.
If they learned that the Night King Hall had destroyed the Sima Family’s estate, they would likely turn their spears towards the Night King Hall.
Then there was Tianmen!
Ye Tian knew very little about this sect.
Their origins, he had no idea…
Sima Feng was an Inner Sect Disciple of Tianmen, and although Tianmen did not care about the life and death of the Outer Sect Disciples, their attitude towards Inner Sect Disciples was probably quite different.
At this moment, Ye Tian was quite troubled…
However, even so, Ye Tian was not afraid.
He would meet the enemy head-on, and if water came, he would cover it with earth.
Ye Tian had always struggled to survive in battles against enemies who were a hundred times stronger than himself!
So, Ye Tian never feared a challenge!
The Martial Artists of the Night King Hall, too, never feared a challenge!
The bonfire party lasted into the deep night, until the Martial Artists had completely finished off the fine wines and delicacies stored by the Sima Family, and only then did they stop.
In the hollow of the mountain, a dense mass of people lay scattered, all of them Martial Artists of the Night King Hall.
The Sima Family’s cherished drinks were delicious indeed, the Martial Artists drank every drop, resulting in all of them being dead drunk…
Fortunately, the hollow of the mountain at night was extraordinarily quiet, devoid of any rustling of wind or grass.
The Martial Artists didn’t wake until noon the next day when all of them refreshed their spirits!
Ye Xuong came to the boss, Ye Tian, and asked, “Boss, what should we do next?
Please instruct us!”
Looking at the messy scene around him, and after a moment of thought, Ye Tian said, “Burn all the bodies of the Sima Family, not leaving a single one!
In addition, the Sima Family’s estate is the source of sin, so set fire to the entire mountain hollow!”
