The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 747 - 744: Hit the South Wall and Don’t Look Back

In an instant, all eyes in the hall were fixed on Ye Chenfeng. Although the family elder, Ye Zhenhong, didn’t fully understand how powerful the top-tier forces of the Ancient Martial World were, he had gleaned some information from Ji Dingtian and others and hastily said, "Chenfeng, your grandfather’s heart has always been weak, and this time you must not scare me again. Listen to your grandfather, you must not enter the Ancient Martial World again."

Ye Chenfeng’s maternal great-grandfather, Sun Boyi, having spent a long time with his once estranged grandson, had come to understand his character very well. Although he was furious to the extreme, he knew that if Ye Chenfeng were to confront the top-tier forces, it would be a near-certain death, so he feigned nonchalance and said, "Chenfeng, your grandfather is right. I’m also tired of the life in the Ancient Martial World, and I’m going to settle down in Capital City from now on."

"Chenfeng, don’t try to show off this time. Stay in Capital City, obedient and well-behaved," Ye Donghua said, frowning slightly.

"Boss, I know how you’re feeling right now. Who among us doesn’t want to take revenge? But if you go up against the top-tier forces, isn’t it tantamount to seeking death? We can take our revenge later when we’re capable. It’s not too late," Qin Yi told Ye Chenfeng.

Sitting on the sofa with a somewhat dejected expression, Ji Dingtian once again spoke, "Chenfeng, as for the secrets of the Ghost King Thirteen Needles, don’t worry about it. My father took a hit for you, not to have you do something for our Ghost Doctor Sect. So I absolutely can’t let you step into the Ancient Martial World again."

Wu Xiaofei, Han Chuxue, and a host of other women present all looked at Ye Chenfeng with expressions full of concern. Frankly, all of them didn’t want Ye Chenfeng to go on another dangerous adventure.

Upon hearing this, Ye Chenfeng put away the gloomy look on his face and smiled, saying, "Do you think I have a death wish? Knowing it’s a life-and-death risk, would I still seek danger? Alright, everyone can rest easy; I just wanted to ask for the name of the other sect. Can’t I even know that much?"

"Chenfeng, it’s a relief that you don’t have such plans, but don’t deceive your grandfather," Ye Zhenhong said, staring at Ye Chenfeng. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

"How could I! I will definitely stay here in Capital City, good and obedient," Ye Chenfeng assured earnestly and then asked Ji Dingtian, "Senior Ji, can you tell me the name of that sect now?"

Ji Dingtian pondered for a moment and then said, "Chenfeng, the name of this top-tier force is Tianshan Sect. As for what rank Tianshan Sect is among the top-tier forces and some detailed information, I do not know."

"However, just the fact that Tianshan Sect dispatched a Sky-Breaking Realm expert, five at the Innate Realm, and thirty of High Grade at Heaven Rank, shows they are not a force that first, second, or third-tier sects can compare with. The power of top-tier sects is absolutely beyond our imagination," Ji Dingtian said with a sigh.

Ye Chenfeng firmly etched the name "Tianshan Sect" into his heart. How could he possibly not set foot in the Ancient Martial World again? How could he not seek vengeance for the disciples of Tianshan Sect and Ghost Doctor Sect? After all, he played no small part in leading to these events.

Besides, even without this situation, Ye Chenfeng would definitely have entered the realm of top-tier forces.

Firstly, in two years’ time, the Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass would mature, and Ye Chenfeng must obtain it for Han Chuxue. Secondly, Ji Shunde took a blow for Ye Chenfeng. With a character that repaid kindness significantly, he had a debt of gratitude to repay. No matter what, he had to step into the world of the top-tier forces.

"It’s getting late; everyone should rest up. I’ve been terribly busy these past days, so none of you should disturb my sleep later. Tonight, I want to sleep alone," Ye Chenfeng told Han Chuxue and the other women, yawning repeatedly as he made his way to the upstairs bedroom.

Han Chuxue watched the retreating figure of Ye Chenfeng as he ascended the stairs, knowing he would once again set foot in the Ancient Martial World. Putting aside the annihilation of Ghost Doctor Sect and Tianshan Sect, just the fact that she needed the Hundred-Year Ten-Leaf Grass, with Ye Chenfeng’s character of valuing loyalty and righteousness, he was definitely going to the realm of the top-tier forces.

In reality, Han Chuxue would be content to spend the remaining four years by Ye Chenfeng’s side; she did not crave a lifetime of happiness with him.

"We all need to keep a close watch these next few days to prevent Chenfeng from leaving without a word. This lad isn’t one to easily give in, and his quick compromise this time definitely suggests something is amiss," Ye Zhenhong told everyone present.

"Meiqin and I will stand guard outside Chenfeng’s room tonight," Sun Meiqin said, quite worried for her son.

"I and Dongjian will keep watch by the outer windows to stop Chenfeng from leaving through the second-floor window," Ye Donghua also said immediately.

...

After Ye Chenfeng returned to his second-floor room, he immediately locked the door from the inside. He didn’t know that people downstairs had set up a series of plans to prevent him from escaping.

He lay in bed with his eyes closed, resting for several hours. Ye Chenfeng checked the time; it was already past two in the morning. He got up from the bed, stood by the door, and listened to the noises outside. To his dismay, he heard the voices of his mother and aunt chatting, prompting a bitter smile to appear on his face.

Then, Ye Chenfeng immediately went over to the room’s window and looked down to see his father and uncle chatting while smoking. He quietly opened the window and estimated the distance from there to the outer wall of the villa. His only choice was to jump out from the window over the villa’s wall without being detected by Ye Donghua and Ye Dongjian below. Fortunately for Chenfeng, knowing the Turtle Breathing Technique meant that this wasn’t going to be too difficult for him.

Gradually regulating his breathing, Ye Chenfeng used the Turtle Breathing Technique. He stepped up to the window, circulated the Soul Force within his body, and pushed off from the sill. His body moved silently towards the villa’s outer wall, and during this process, Ye Donghua and Ye Dongjian downstairs didn’t notice anything amiss.

Just as Ye Chenfeng was about to leap over the wall, he let out a soft exhale, but his eyes suddenly widened in shock. Outside the wall, Wu Xiaofei, Zhao Wanting, Han Chuxue, and other women were all standing there.

Almost losing his balance and falling to the ground upon landing, Ye Chenfeng touched his nose in embarrassment and asked, "Why are you all standing out here by the wall instead of sleeping at this late hour?"

Wu Xiaofei glared at Ye Chenfeng and said, "Chu Xue predicted that you would try to escape tonight, so we’ve been waiting outside like sitting ducks. I didn’t expect you to actually make it outside without a sound, did you?"

Without giving Ye Chenfeng a chance to speak, Wu Xiaofei walked back toward the Ye family villa. After a short while, Ye Zhenhong, Sun Boyi, Sun Meiqin, Ye Donghua, and everyone else came out as well.

Ye Zhenhong said angrily, "Chenfeng, have you forgotten what you promised me just now? Do you really want to be the death of your grandfather?"

"Chenfeng, listen to your grandfather. Stop thinking about going back to the Ancient Martial World," Sun Meiqin approached and took Ye Chenfeng’s arm, urging him.

Ye Chenfeng knew that he had to lay his cards on the table now; it wouldn’t work otherwise. He pulled his arm free from Sun Meiqin’s grasp, took a deep breath, and said, "Great-grandfather, grandfather, grandpa, I know you all want what’s best for me, but I must take responsibility for those who died. The whole incident started because of me, should I not seek vengeance for them?"

"Moreover, I have to join a top-tier power; Chu Xue only has four years left to live, and the medicine that can cure her is only available with them," he said earnestly.

"Chenfeng, I don’t need you to risk your life for me; just being by your side for these remaining four years is enough," Han Chuxue interjected anxiously.

"What sort of man can’t even protect his own woman? Is he still a man?"

Ye Chenfeng looked resolutely at Han Chuxue, then continued, "Senior Ji Shunde took a blow for me, and I must repay that kindness. Do you all want me to be a coward who is neither righteous nor honorable?"

"I, Ye Chenfeng, am someone who would not turn back even when hitting a wall. Once I have set my mind on something, I must see it through."

"So, please don’t try to stop me."

"I can promise you all that I, Ye Chenfeng, will return alive after two years."

"None of you should even think about accompanying me back to the Ancient Martial World. More people will only complicate things, and I would have to look after you, which would hinder me. So just wait for me to return in peace."

Now that everything was out in the open, there was no need for Ye Chenfeng to pretend anymore. (To be continued.
