Best Young Master-Chapter 1412 - 1286: The Sloppy Elder

"Hehe, why are you so angry?"

With a calm voice, an ordinary old man appeared slowly from the void, looking extremely unremarkable.

Dressed in a patched robe and wearing straw sandals, with a sloppy appearance, he didn’t look at all like someone who could snatch a person from Qing Daoyuan’s hands.

"Who is this person? How can he be so powerful?"

"To snatch a person from the hands of the Qing Family Ancestor, who is comparable to a Saint Lord, he must at least be a Saint Lord level powerhouse!"

"He looks quite unfamiliar, he must have concealed his true identity, could he be some Saint Lord?"

"It’s said that this Ye Fan is just a disciple of the Xuanwu Sect, he should have nothing to do with the Holy Land, so why would someone comparable to a Saint Lord come to save him?"

After the Sloppy Elder appeared, the cultivators watching from afar were bewildered, with no one knowing who he actually was.

At this moment, those who dared to remain here were all from Wu Shang Sect or clans not inferior to the Qing Family, or people from the Holy Land, but in their memories, they could not find any information about this elder before them, as if he appeared from thin air.

In their memories, which of the strong people comparable to a Saint Lord didn’t have an extraordinary demeanor? How could they be so unkempt?

However, they couldn’t be absolutely sure either, because the Southern Domain was vast, there were many reclusive strong people whose power wasn’t much less than that of a Saint Lord. Perhaps Ye Fan really did have some relation to such a strong individual!

If the two were to fight, it would surely be a spectacular battle; however, would this elder make a move against a strong figure like Qing Daoyuan for the sake of Ye Fan?

The crowd eagerly anticipated the clash between the two, knowing that Qing Daoyuan’s true cultivation was also very close to the Venerable Realm, and if they were to clash, it would certainly be an astonishing battle!

"Who are you? Do you dare to meddle in the Qing Family’s matters?"

With the Qing Family’s hundreds of elites killed and Qing Yu dead, Qing Daoyuan was seething with rage, wanting nothing more than to tear Ye Fan to pieces immediately.

Yet he could see that the Sloppy Elder was not to be trifled with, so he did not act rashly, coldly questioning him.

"Who I am is not important, what’s important is, is it appropriate for you, a master at the Half-step Venerable Realm, to attack a Little Cultivator at the Holy Embryo Realm?"

The Sloppy Elder shouted in a low voice, taking a step that was seemingly slow yet fast, crossing mountains and lands in a flash to stand in front of Ye Fan, vaguely shielding him behind.

"Hmph!"

Qing Daoyuan snorted coldly and said, "It’s not up to others to decide how I, the Ancestor, handle things. This kid has an irreconcilable hatred with my Qing Family, and today no one can stop me from wanting to kill him, not even you!"

"Oh? Then go ahead and try, and see whether I can or cannot prevent you."

The cloudy eyes of the Sloppy Elder gradually became bright, shining brilliantly, eventually turning as deep as the sea, fixed on Qing Daoyuan.

"Haha, there is no one in the Southern Domain that I’m afraid of!"

Qing Daoyuan shouted loudly, his right hand swinging fiercely, as a cyan hand covered the skies and struck towards Ye Fan with a tremendously imposing momentum.

"Bullying the weak is already against the rules, yet you act so arrogantly; let’s see how you plan to kill him in front of me. I’m determined to protect him!"

The Sloppy Elder’s whole body erupted with a terrifying aura, as if an ancient God Demon had resurrected. His greasy, dirty hand covered the sky, meeting Qing Daoyuan’s cyan hand head-on.

"Boom..."

The collision of hand power produced a thunderous sound, as the violent energy swept around like a hurricane, almost piercing through the void!

"Ah..."

Several cultivators watching from afar were affected by the energy, spitting blood from their seven orifices, screaming as they fell to the ground.

Those with slightly stronger strength felt their ears ringing and their blood churning, retreating hastily.

A strike from a strong person at the Half-step Venerable Realm could destroy heaven and earth, something they couldn’t possibly withstand.

Even the chaotic energy flowing around wasn’t something they could endure.

From this strike by Qing Daoyuan, it wasn’t hard to imagine how powerful the Saint Lords of Holy Lands and Wu Shang Sects were, no wonder they could stand firm for tens of thousands of years as huge Holy Lands and Sects.

"Are you really going to stop me from killing him?"

Defeated in one move, Qing Daoyuan, filled with murderous intent, glared at the Sloppy Elder and asked.

"I am here for the clear purpose of protecting this one, but if you’re unwise, I might change my mind."

The Sloppy Elder spoke coldly, as if he were a Heavenly God, formidable and domineering!

At this moment, he was the heaven, he was the earth, there was only him between heaven and earth, even Ye Fan standing beside him felt as if he were standing next to a towering Divine Mountain, an indescribable oppressive force making his blood churn!

If the Sloppy Elder hadn’t blocked the chaotic energy flow, Ye Fan would have long been obliterated to the point of not leaving even scraps behind, even his Nine Heavens Profound Body couldn’t withstand such an attack!

"The Half-step Supreme is indeed powerful, wiping away the heavens with a wave and splitting the earth with a step, when can I achieve such Cultivation?" Ye Fan mused longingly.

"Kid, don’t aim too high. The Thunderclap Treasure Skill you’re cultivating is absolutely not inferior to any Divine Skill Manual. With diligent practice, one day you’ll surely surpass these people," Bai Yan wolf glanced disdainfully at Ye Fan.

The Thunderclap Treasure Skill was created by Thunder Venerable Master, the one with the greatest hope of proving Dao and becoming Emperor; it wasn’t inferior to the Mystical Skill left behind by any Great Emperor.

In Bai Yan wolf’s view, the Thunderclap Treasure Skill was even stronger than the Divine Skill Manual created by most Great Emperors since it harnessed the power of the Heavenly Dao.

Thunder Venerable Master regretted all his life for not proving Dao in his prime, but he firmly believed that his Book of Profound Techniques was not inferior in the least. As long as it was handed down, someone would eventually prove Dao using this Divine Skill Manual, fulfilling his unaccomplished wish.

"Alright, alright, in that case, let me see just how profound your Dao is! Let’s fight in the sky!"

Qing Daoyuan knew that with the Sloppy Elder’s protection, he couldn’t do anything to Ye Fan for the time being. However, he wasn’t worried about Ye Fan escaping. As long as he defeated the Sloppy Elder in front of him, he’d have plenty of time to slowly deal with Ye Fan.

"As you wish!"

The Sloppy Elder smiled faintly.

A battle between Saint Lord Level powerhouses who weren’t life-or-death enemies generally remained restrained without exploding into a full-scale war. Therefore, at their realm, finding a suitable opponent was rare. The Sloppy Elder also wanted to take this opportunity to stretch his muscles!

The sky was the ideal battlefield for a fight at the Saint Lord Level. Otherwise, the surroundings for hundreds of miles would be utterly devastated, with no grass growing for hundreds of years!

Whoosh!

Qing Daoyuan was the first to fly deep into the sky, standing in the void while awaiting the Sloppy Elder’s arrival!

"Senior..."

Ye Fan wanted to say something, but was stopped by a look from the Sloppy Elder.

"Don’t worry, he won’t be able to harm me. Stay here, don’t leave. I’ll send you home later!" The Sloppy Elder advised Ye Fan and then transformed into a flash of lightning, shooting up into the high sky!

Boom!

A moment later, dull thunderous crashes echoed from the sky, like thunder, as beams of light lit up the night sky!

The glaring light was almost blinding, and Ye Fan, using all his eye power, could only make out two figures flickering back and forth in the night sky.

In just ten breaths, the two had exchanged over a thousand moves. The Sloppy Elder moved effortlessly, showing no signs of strain.

In contrast, Qing Daoyuan roared repeatedly, each strike earth-shattering, yet he couldn’t do anything to the Sloppy Elder in the void.

At this moment, the Sloppy Elder’s entire body was enveloped in a faint glow, unaffected by ten thousand techniques, as any attack was dissolved by that protective light covering him.

"Qing Daoyuan is not a match for the Sloppy Elder; they aren’t even in the same league. The Sloppy Elder is making a fool of him!"

Ye Fan couldn’t see the battle clearly in the sky, but the other powerful cultivators could. When they saw the Sloppy Elder easily repelling Qing Daoyuan with a light strike, they knew Qing Daoyuan had lost.

"I’ve already shown mercy several times, and if you remain obstinate, don’t blame me for being ruthless!"

After battling Qing Daoyuan for thousands of rounds, the Sloppy Elder gave a low shout, raised his right hand, and divine power condensed into an enormous palm, striking toward Qing Daoyuan!

"Bring it on! Do you think I’m afraid of you?"

Qing Daoyuan roared, directly burning divine power, his combat power skyrocketing, and an aura of terror emanated from him!

Whoosh!

Waving his hand to meet the challenge, Qing Daoyuan unleashed his strongest attack, nearly collapsing the heavens, ripping open horrific rifts in the void.

"In the cultivation world, there’s an unwritten rule: the grievances of the younger generation shouldn’t involve the older generation. Have you forgotten that? You intend to commit such an extermination act, but how can I let you succeed!"

The Sloppy Elder’s voice thundered through the heavens, righteously, allowing those watching from afar to hear clearly.

These onlookers, the group of cultivators, nodded in agreement. The Sloppy Elder was absolutely right. The Qing and Lou families were wrong in the first place; they weren’t in the right. If they had let Qing Zi and Ye Fan compete, there’d be no objection, and no one would intervene.

But the Qing and Lou families not only sent many young strong people to hunt Ye Fan but also dispatched many older generation strong people. Even figures like Qing Yu and Lou Canghai took action personally, which was a violation of the rules!

"Ah..."

Qing Daoyuan’s palm clashed with the Sloppy Elder’s gigantic hand, instantly producing an earth-shattering scream, shattering his right hand to pieces, bones and meridians completely shattered.

"Scram!"

The Sloppy Elder swung backhanded, sending Qing Daoyuan flying several hundred miles away.

"Venerable Level?!"

Qing Daoyuan, barely steadying himself, was utterly shocked, deeply gazing at the elder, and then fled without looking back!

Qing Daoyuan arrived in a fit of rage, swearing to kill Ye Fan, but ended up in such a situation, slapped away like a stray dog!

"Let today’s events serve as a testimony for everyone, and if there’s nothing else, you all should return!"

The Sloppy Elder watched Qing Daoyuan disappear into the horizon before turning back to address the distant onlookers.

"Certainly, certainly, we will definitely relay tonight’s events truthfully to others."

The onlookers from afar knew that the Sloppy Elder had effectively issued an order to leave, and they clasped their fists and departed.

In the next moment.

Under the starry sky, only Ye Fan and Bai Yan wolf remained!
