Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law-Chapter 720 - 702 Shall We Make a Bet?_2
More people signed up swiftly, and Leng Wuming turned to Ye Feng, saying, "My lord, ever since we entered the Outer Battlefield, I've practically been following you this whole time and haven't really wandered around on my own. The world is so vast, and I'd like to take these two years to go see it."
Subsequently, even Xiao Chuanqi and Sima Zhantian, who had followed Ye Feng for a longer period, also decided to lead their teams to gain experience and adventure on their own.
Beyond that, members of the group also formed small teams in pairs and threes, while some chose to venture alone. Soon, the group of more than sixty people dispersed, leaving only Yu Feiyu and Hong Qingyan behind.
As for Hong Qingyan, needless to say, she had been unconscious for so long, and now that she had finally reunited with Ye Feng, she naturally wouldn't depart by herself.
Yu Feiyu, however, said, "Master, I must remind you, my cultivation strength is quite low, so you are not allowed to send me away!"
Before Ye Feng could speak, Hong Qingyan beside him chuckled, "Your master wouldn't do such a thing. Don't worry, Feiyu, if he dares, I'll be the first to object."
Ye Feng merely shook his head with a smile. Regardless, he couldn't help but worry a little about the team splitting up and venturing on their own.
However, Ye Feng also knew that if he always protected them, once they developed a psychological dependency, they would likely never become true Great Powers.
Chi Jark looked at Ye Feng and suddenly quipped, "I'm saying, Brother Ye, seeing your Four Great Legion Commanders and those subordinates leave so decisively, aren't you worried that once they leave, they might choose to go solo and never return to your command?"
This was also a concern for Xiao Rulong, so he turned his head towards Ye Feng, his face full of inquiry.
Ye Feng simply smiled faintly, "They won't do that!"
"You have that much confidence?" Xiao Rulong and Chi Jark asked almost at the same time, "After all, the uncertainty in the Outer Battlefield is simply too great!"
Ye Feng also turned his head to look at them and suggested, "How about we make a bet?"
"How do you want to bet?" asked Xiao Rulong.
"Let's bet that before the collapse of the Great Wall of Heaven in two years' time, under my summoning, except for those who meet with an accident, the rest of the people will all come to the Great Wall of Heaven to respond to the call!" Ye Feng said calmly with a smile, adding, "If even one doesn't show up, then I lose."
"Fine, we'll take that bet. If in two years, all sixty-two people, barring those who have fallen accidentally, answer your call to serve the kingdom, I, Xiao Rulong, will call you my lord just like them!" declared Xiao Rulong.
"I'm in as well, but if you, Brother Ye, lose, we won't ask for too much. I want that Heaven Guard Monument of yours!" Chi Jark declared loudly, seemingly having taken a liking to Ye Feng's Heaven Guard Monument for its great power.
"Then I want the Golden Dragon Shield!" said Xiao Rulong.
"No problem, in two years, I'll be waiting for you to honor me as your leader!" Ye Feng laughed heartily.
Yu Feiyu couldn't help but laugh and asked, "Sister Qingyan, do you think our master will win when the time comes?"
"Of course, Big Brother Ye never does anything he's unsure of. Since he's willing to make a bet, he must be absolutely confident. Also, I've noticed that Big Brother Ye probably wants to take these two Prodigies of the Ancient Clan under his command!" Hong Qingyan murmured in response.
Yu Feiyu nodded with a mix of belief and doubt.
"Let's go. We shall depart now. Please, Brother Xiao and Brother Chi, lead the way!" Ye Feng gestured with a wave of his hand as he stepped aside.
Now, with the team no longer following him, Ye Feng felt much more relaxed. The pressure wasn't as great, and this would allow him to focus more on his training to enhance his cultivation strength.
"Sky Burial Valley is located in the southwest corner of the Outer Battlefield. We just need to keep heading southwest. According to the map, if we start from here, it should take us about three days to reach it!" Xiao Rulong said.
Ye Feng nodded, about to leap up, when a thought suddenly struck him. With a flick of his wrist, he took out the Brocade Box he had just received from the treasure vault of the underground City Lord's Mansion and handed it to Hong Qingyan with a smile, "Qingyan, this is for you."
"For me? What's inside the Brocade Box?" Hong Qingyan was momentarily stunned.
"Perhaps it's indeed luck that we found this in such a place. Open it and you'll see," Ye Feng smiled.
Full of curiosity and with a trace of anticipation, Hong Qingyan opened the box. Xiao Rulong and Chi Jark leaned in too, clearly curious about what the Brocade Box contained.
Upon opening the lid, inside the box was a lotus seed the size of a thumb, crystal clear and jadelike, emitting a faint green glow, and even a subtle fragrance could be sensed.
"Is this the seed of the Hun Yuan Green Lotus?" Xiao Rulong and Chi Jark exclaimed in mild astonishment before withdrawing their gaze, seemingly not that interested.
"Indeed, it is the seed of the Hun Yuan Green Lotus." Ye Feng smiled, noticing their reaction. It seemed that even these two prodigies of the Ancient Clan did not know the true marvels of the Hun Yuan Green Lotus Seed.
According to common belief, the Hun Yuan Green Lotus Seed was considered to have healing properties, and at best, it was more effective than others. However, in reality, if one could gather seven Hun Yuan Green Lotus Seeds and consume them, there was a great chance of increasing the probability of breaking through to the Yin-Yang Realm.
Even for those with exceptional talent, it wasn't just about a great increase in probability; it was a certainty that it would help them break through!
Hong Qingyan's talent was impressive, and now, with the aid of Origin Energy, her Golden Core was becoming more condensed and solidified, almost reaching Great Perfection. If she could collect seven Hun Yuan Green Lotus Seeds, there was a high chance she could immediately break through into the Yin-Yang Realm.
Of course, these seeds were not easy to find. In fact, since then, Ye Feng had been inquiring about the whereabouts of the Hun Yuan Green Lotus Seeds, but so far, he had only found two.
However, Ye Feng had heard that the Yin-Yang Temple might have a few seeds in their possession. Regrettably, he hadn't been able to truly kill Divine Master Tanaka, otherwise, his storage ring might have contained some.
"So, it's these seeds. Then I'll accept it, thank you, Big Brother Ye!" Hong Qingyan didn't play coy. She simply smiled faintly, closed the Brocade Box and immediately put it into her storage ring.
"Let's go. We set out for Sky Burial Valley!" Ye Feng said, then soared into the air with Hong Qingyan and Yu Feiyu quickly following behind him.
"This Ye Feng guy, he's really quite lucky with ladies, huh? Wherever he goes, he has girls accompanying him, unlike us, always single wherever we go!" Xiao Rulong shook his head and sighed.
"Brother Xiao, what you said isn't quite right. Haven't we always been together? How can you say we are single?" Chi Jark laughed.
"Get lost, you damned cheeky man, I don't go for men!" Xiao Rulong gave him a glare before leaping up and heading southwest, and Chi Jark, laughing loudly, also took off flying.
