Top Grade Immortal Emperor in the Flower City-Chapter 387 - 396: Awesome Singleton

Ye Ling did not overstate his position, standing up and clasping his fists, "Junior Ye Ling, pays his respects to the Yun Family Head."

Referring to himself as junior was the furthest extent Ye Ling would go in lowering his status. Previously, it would have been unthinkable for Ye Ling to demean himself so, as the belief that he was the foremost under the heavens had always occupied his mind.

"What junior or not junior, in the Cultivation Realm, those who achieve are revered. Though I may be old in age, compared to you, I might as well have lived a dog’s life."

"I just heard from Yunfei Yang that you intend to use our Yun Family’s talismans to sneak into the Netherworld. Rest assured, I fully support you. However, Ye Ling, I still want to advise you, life is the most important thing."

"I’m also privy to some details about the turmoil in the Netherworld. If you are indeed determined to go, then I will explain it in detail to you."

Yunfei Yang’s grandfather said with a serious expression, the troubles of the Netherworld, once they erupt, will impact the human world first and foremost, instantly submerging it in a tide of ghosts from the Netherworld.

Ye Ling nodded, "Please speak, old master, I am definitively going."

The Yun Family elder nodded, took the seat of honor, sighed deeply, and slowly explained to Ye Ling in detail the reasons behind the Yun Family’s situation and the current turmoil in the Netherworld.

The Yun Family has been forever stationed in the southwest, with talismans that allow entry and exit from the Netherworld because, a thousand years ago, the Yun Family became the official spokesperson for the Netherworld in the human world.

The conduit between the Netherworld and the human world was suppressed within the grounds of the Yun Family estate, something even Yunfei Yang himself did not know. Any entrance of Underworld Soldiers into the human realm had to go through the Yun Family.

Should any malevolent ghosts escape, apart from this route, there was no alternative. Thus, the upper echelons of the Netherworld had essentially established an inspection checkpoint in the human realm, with the Yun Family acting as its overseer.

The massive upheaval in the Netherworld this time was due to a conspiracy that had been brewing for a thousand years. A Tongtian-class powerhouse took advantage of the absence of Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha from the Netherworld, led a rebellion with the Underworld Soldiers, injured the Ten Great Yan Juns, and plunged the entire Netherworld into utter chaos.

"Speaking of which, this rebellion is indeed related to the Yun Family, and we even share some of the responsibility."

The Yun Family elder said with a sigh, and Ye Ling was deeply shocked. What did he mean by the Yun Family having a responsibility and connection?

"After the rebellion erupted, I received a message from the Netherworld, immediately checked our clan’s records, and indeed discovered some reasons."

"The one who caused the great turmoil in the Netherworld, resulting in over half of the Ten Great Yan Juns being wounded or killed, was a horse groom in the Yun Family a thousand years ago."

Ye Ling was completely astounded by the elder’s words. Even having witnessed countless earth-shattering events in his previous life, he was still fiercely shaken, his heart beating uncontrollably.

What a joke. A being who injured the Ten Great Yan Juns must at least be a Golden Immortal-level powerhouse. How could a mere horse groom who had cultivated for a thousand years reach such a state in the Netherworld?

Let alone Ye Ling, even Furo Wang, that heaven-defying figure favored by the Heavenly Dao in his former life, couldn’t have possibly cultivated to such a realm within a millennium.

"Old master, are you sure you’re not mistaken? The one who injured the Ten Great Yan Juns was that horse groom who merely cultivated for a millennium?" Ye Ling was somewhat incredulous.

A horse groom, since when the hell were they so incredible?

The Yun Family elder shook his head, "He wasn’t the one who injured the Ten Great Yan Juns, but the incident did start because of him."

Hearing this, Ye Ling finally nodded, that’s more like it. To say that he had caused over half of the Ten Great Yan Juns to be injured or killed within a millennium, I wouldn’t believe that even if you killed me.

"That horse groom, a thousand years ago, cared for the horses in the Yun Family. However, he quietly developed a romance with one of the daughters of our clan."

"The Yun Family’s precious daughter, how could she possibly spend her life with a horse groom, a stable slave? If word got out, where would the Yun Family’s face be? Thus, the ancestors gave the order to banish the stable slave from the Yun Family."

"Who knew that the daughter, who was deeply connected to the stable slave, would resolutely take her own life after the ancestors expelled the stable slave!"

At this point, the Yun Family patriarch also sighed, for she was surely a woman of absolute devotion and fierce character.

"Originally, the ancestors were grief-stricken, but who could have predicted that one month later, the stable slave returned, and in that one month, he had cultivated to the Innate Realm, clearly having met a master."

"When the stable slave heard that his beloved had committed suicide, he went mad with rage and attacked the ancestors, only to be wounded."

"The stable slave left in low spirits, but a day later, he died at the entrance of the Yun Family, by suicide."

"Perhaps he sought to take his own life to join his beloved in the Netherworld. Regardless, he died, and within a thousand years, this event was all but forgotten by the family."

"However, a few days ago, news came from the Netherworld that the stable slave hadn’t found the soul of the Yun Family’s female ancestor after entering. This caused him to become incredibly violent."

"Thus, the Netherworld jailed him in the seventeenth level of hell, but what nobody expected was that he disappeared."

"And a thousand years later, he appeared again, bringing with him a mysterious, peerless powerhouse, who injured the ten Yan Juns and suppressed the entire Netherworld. Afterward, he laid down a terrible seal, completely sealing off the Netherworld."

"That powerhouse left the Netherworld after the sealing, and now almost half of the Netherworld is under control of that stable slave."

This affair made Ye Ling marvel, and Yunfei Yang was shocked as hell. Damn, it’s so surreal. A mere stable slave, and in a thousand years, he’s turned from a slave into a master.

All of this, because of one woman. It’s easy to imagine just how powerful the motivation a woman can instill in a man, especially for a single guy.

"Wait a second, Elder, did you just say that the mysterious powerhouse left?" Ye Ling suddenly thought of something and said excitedly.

The Yun Family patriarch nodded, "That powerhouse has left, which means now there’s only that stable slave controlling most of the Netherworld. It’s unbelievable that such a thing has happened after a thousand years."

No wonder the Elder felt astonished. Damn, a stable slave from the Yun Family, after a thousand years, now controls the Netherworld. Although it may be a pseudo-regime member, he was still their stable slave from before.

The Elder even pondered whether it would be shameless to go to the Netherworld to curry favor. He would probably be torn to pieces by this furious fellow before even reaching the stable slave. If it weren’t for this thought, the Yun Family might have already defected.

Tsk, such a shameless Elder.

"Excellent!" Ye Ling was overjoyed. A mere stable slave left? I can easily handle this.

Damn, a thousand years of time. Even if you went to the Immortal Realm, what realm could you have cultivated to? With my Nine Great Golden Cores, can’t I handle a stable slave?

"Elder, bring the Talisman. Let’s take this opportunity. I’ll head down right away and settle the matter. Otherwise, it’ll be troublesome if that guy who injured the ten Yan Juns comes back," said Ye Ling.

Seizing the chance, Ye Ling aimed straight for Huang Long.
