Chapter 151: Esteemed Founder's Fear

Soon my cultivation will break through again; by then, few in the ancient Sun clan will be able to stop me.

Ye Chen said, word by word.

He absolutely could not stand by and watch Yun Yun marry someone else; he couldn't do it, for Yun Yun had helped him immensely.

Moreover, the cultivation resources Yun Yun once gave him were also an important factor in his quickly finding his footing.

So he would certainly not watch Yun Yun fall into a wolf's den like that.

"Three days later… the ancient Sun clan, I will surely destroy them!"

Ye Chen thought to himself, and at the moment his words fell, thunder rumbled and flashed in the sky.

At this moment, Esteemed Founder, who was cultivating, suddenly opened his eyes; a bad premonition arose in his heart. He is now a great cultivator of the Mahayana stage, and in the dark he can sense something that could threaten his existence.

Thus, at the instant Ye Chen spoke those words, he snapped his eyes open; a sense of danger lingered in his heart, impossible to dispel.

"Damn it, what's going on?"

Esteemed Founder frowned, puzzled, and said.

Since he last returned, he has never encountered this situation before; now it is the first time.

Speaking of last time, Esteemed Founder was extremely lucky; after earthly cultivators severed his mortal body, his soul escaped, but the earthly cultivators obviously did not intend to let him go, pursuing him relentlessly.

Just as he thought he would perish, the earthly cultivators gave up the chase, and he sensed that their aura had weakened to an extreme degree.

Even so, he did not dare to fight back against those earthly cultivators; he fled in disgrace, and upon returning to the ancient Sun clan, he immediately entered seclusion.

He had thought he would never break through in this lifetime, but unexpectedly he broke through and then rose; his cultivation not only did not decline, it rose even higher!

This was something he never imagined.

But this seclusion lasted nearly a hundred years.

On the day he emerged from seclusion, he went straight to the Yun family; now the ancient Sun clan has six Mahayana-stage experts, while the Yun family has only five, so the ancient Sun clan's standing is now above that of the Yun family.

Under pressure from the ancient Sun clan's might, the Yun family had no choice but to marry Yun Yun to Esteemed Founder as compensation.

As the hundred years drew near, Esteemed Founder never forgot the heavenly oath Ye Chen had sworn: if he did not die, within a hundred years he would surely destroy the ancient Sun clan.

At first, Esteemed Founder did not take it to heart, but as the hundred years approached, he felt a growing unease, as if it would swallow him.

Now, aside from cultivation, he hardly dares to go out; he is dazed all day, sometimes even mistaking passersby for Ye Chen, and he is terribly afraid.

"Damn it, all this is because of that brat; if not for that brat, I would not be in such a sorry state now!"

Esteemed Founder roared in anger; he wished he could tear Ye Chen apart right now, but he doesn't even know where Ye Chen is, let alone rip him apart.

"Damn!"

"Come here!"

As Esteemed Founder's words fell, a black shadow suddenly appeared before him.

"Still no trace of that damned brat?"

Esteemed Founder's eyes were like those of a hawk or falcon, extremely sharp.

The black-clad figure trembled under Esteemed Founder's gaze, struggling to control his emotions, and said: "There is none; over these years he has seemed to vanish into thin air, and no matter how we search, we find not a single clue."

After hearing his words, Esteemed Founder flew into a rage!

"Get out, all of you, get out!"

Esteemed Founder, furious, grabbed whatever was on the table and began throwing it about, but it was of no use.

It was merely a venting of his helpless anger.

Actually, Esteemed Founder would not normally be this anxious, but the heavenly oath made him fearful and uneasy.

Because the heavenly oath only manifests, and is acknowledged, when the two sides are roughly equal in strength, or when one side's talent is strong enough to accomplish what he said.

Otherwise, Esteemed Founder would not be so panicked.

"Damn ants, why can't you just die properly!"

Esteemed Founder roared, and as he did, everything around him turned to dust.

At that moment, a maid came from outside, she looked around in fright, her hand holding the tea trembling.

Esteemed Founder saw her, seeming to have found a place to vent his fury, and he loudly told the maid: "Come here!"

The maid, hearing Esteemed Founder's words, trembled as she walked up to him; when she stood before him, Esteemed Founder glared angrily at her, and although she knew he was not angry because of her, she still felt fear.

How could she not fear such an exalted Mahayana being?

"I'm full of fire right now! Let me vent it!"

After Esteemed Founder said that, the maid understood his intent; though she was utterly unwilling, she had no choice but to squat down to vent his fire for him.

Esteemed Founder then showed a look of enjoyment, but quickly withdrew it, saying: "Ye Chen, I will surely have you die!"

"Perhaps the patriarch can calculate where Ye Chen is now; if he is here, I will surely ask the patriarch to come out and completely slay Ye Chen!"

Esteemed Founder is now a Mahayana cultivator, qualified to command the clan's cultivators and even to summon the patriarch in seclusion; after all, he is currently a mainstay of the clan.

After thinking that, he looked at the maid still striving to vent his fire, and coldly said: "Hurry up!"

The maid was startled by Esteemed Founder's sudden voice and involuntarily pressed harder; this pained him, he glared angrily at her, and with a single palm strike she instantly turned into a mist of blood.

Esteemed Founder coldly watched the spot where the maid vanished, and soon he too disappeared from here.

……

Meanwhile, Ye Chen sensed in the dark that someone harbored killing intent toward him; to this, he merely gave a disdainful cold smile.

"It seems he must have guessed I've come; after all, killing intent between Mahayana cultivators can be sensed, although not obviously."

"Moreover, we still have the heavenly oath between us, which makes it even easier for him to confirm my arrival."

After Ye Chen finished thinking, he immediately asked Hun Yan: "Hun Yan, with your current Conceal Heavenly Secrets technique, how strong must one be to break through it?"

Hun Yan heard Ye Chen's words, slowly opened his eyes, and said: "Nowadays, only someone infinitely close to a Quasi-Emperor, or a Quasi-Emperor or above, can break through my technique."

"That's good; then conceal me for a while, but don't let the ancient Sun clan people find me too early."

Ye Chen said gloomily, and while speaking he did not hide his killing intent, which was almost substantive.

After Hunyan finished listening to Ye Chen's words, it said nothing, but silently concealed Ye Chen's heavenly secrets.

After shielding Ye Chen's heavenly secrets, Hunyan closed its eyes; now this method no longer consumes much of its energy, but its strength is rapidly recovering, so it wants to sleep more.

Although it is sleeping, if Ye Chen calls it, it can hear; this is a divine sense imprint, and when Ye Chen calls it, it will surely wake up.
