Chapter 14: The Thunder Emperor's Secret (Seeking Recommendation Tickets!!)

  Is this guy a monster? He actually cultivated the Yuan Lei Body in just a few days! Even Ye Chen from before didn't have such talent as he does now!

  Ye Cangxuan and others were excited beyond words, after all these years, the Ye family had finally produced a supreme genius!

  "From today on, any news related to Ye Chen must be kept confidential!" Ye Cangxuan turned his head and took a look around, fortunately, there were not many people who heard their conversation, only six of them in total, including himself, Ye Zhantian, Ye Zhandragon, Ye Zhangong and others.

  Upon hearing Ye Cangxuan's words, Ye Zhan Tian couldn't help but reveal his excitement on his face. At this moment, he wished to loudly tell everyone that this is my son, Ye Zhan Tian!

  Ye Zhan Tian thought of something and lowered his voice, saying: "Chen Er said that he had a dream about an old man with white hair a few days ago. That night after waking up, Chen Er's meridians were healed."

  "Could it be?!" Ye Cangxuan was stunned for a moment, then exclaimed excitedly: "Isn't this the ancestor who broke through the void and came to bestow a blessing in a dream? That would be the greatest fortune for Chen'er!"

  The meridians of the Chen family were actually restored in this way, could it be that their ancestors really had a spirit? Their eyes looked at the ancestral tablets on the altar with more piety and respect than before.

  "Chen'er, did our ancestors leave any instructions?" Ye Zhanlong asked Ye Chen.

  "There's no such thing as a 'training session'." Ye Chen awkwardly rubbed his head, that was just something he made up, didn't expect them to take it so seriously.

  "Oh." Ye Zhanlong felt somewhat disappointed. A thousand years ago, the Ye family was a powerful clan in the Western Wu Empire, but now it had declined to such an extent that his ancestors hadn't left behind even a single word.

  "Our ancestors didn't leave behind any teachings, but instead passed down a set of martial arts called the Thunder Emperor's Fist!" Ye Zhantian said with a smile.

  "Lei Emperor's Secret?" Ye Cangxuan and others looked at Ye Zhan Tian, their hearts skipping a beat.

  "After some research, I think Lei Meng's inner power should be derived from the Thunder Emperor's manual. The wonder of this manual is truly ineffable."

  "Could it be that Big Brother has recently broken through to the 9th rank, and it's because of that cultivation technique?" Ye Zhan Long asked in surprise.

  "Indeed, I've been cultivating and have made a breakthrough in my Xuan Qi. Two days ago, I even easily broke through the Jie Jian barrier and completed my advancement. I was just about to share the oral formula of the Lei Di Quan with Sixth Uncle and all of you brothers to study. Additionally, I also plan to pass on the first level of cultivation method to all of the younger generation in our family." Ye Zhan Tian said.

  Ye Zhan Tian said this, even Ye Cang Xuan couldn't help but be moved.

  "Could it be the ancient Ye family's secret technique?"

  Ye Cangxuan and others were overwhelmed with emotions, excited beyond words. Could it be that in their lifetime, they would still see the Ye family's resurgence?

  "This is no trivial matter, and let's not speak of it here." Ye Cangxuan said.

  Everyone stopped talking about it.

  "Since Chen Er has gained the recognition of his ancestors and become the new head of the Ye family, I suppose everyone has no objections." Ye Cangxuan smiled and patted Ye Chen's head, saying, "Chen Er's talent is so astonishing, he must be well-cultivated to revive the glory of our Ye family!"

  Under the guidance of Ye Zhan Tian and others, the scale of the ancestral worship ceremony was several times larger than before, the ceremony was more grand, and a ceremony was held for Ye Chen to take over as the new head of the family, it was lively.

  After the ancestor worship ceremony, Ye Cangxuan didn't leave either, staying behind to study the Lei Emperor's manual with Ye Zhantian and others. There were six people in the clan who had touched upon the upper mental methods of the Lei Emperor's manual.

  Uncle and father have increased their strength, the family is more stable, Ye Chen can take over as the new head of the household with a clearer conscience!

  After the ancestral worship ceremony ended, Ye Moyang took his punishment and rested for a while before hurrying to the detention room of the Law Enforcement Hall. Several clansmen saw him from afar along the way.

  "Isn't that Ye Moyang elder?"

  "He is no longer the elder of the Ye family now. It's said that the master punished him with a hundred lashes and stripped him of his position as an elder just because he failed to teach his son properly, which seems a bit too severe."

  "How dare you question the master's decision? If someone had laid a hand on my son, I would have fought him to the death. I think the master has been more than fair!"

  Those clansmen discussed in hushed tones, keeping a respectful distance from Ye Moyang. Although they felt that Ye Zhan Tian's punishment was somewhat severe, they wouldn't dare say anything. After all, Ye Zhan Tian is now a 9th rank strongman and the pillar of the family. The family's safety for the next few decades depends on him. Even if he heavily punished Ye Moyang, they wouldn't dare utter a word.

  Ye Moyang naturally wouldn't be unaware of the clan members' gossip, his face darkening to a frightening degree, he walked into the confinement chamber without looking back.

  "Rebellious child, who told you to use the Shadow Claw!" Ye Moyang slapped Ye Kongyang with a loud smack, but his hand wasn't very heavy.

  Ye Kongyan was slapped in the face and remained pale as a ghost, without making a sound.

  Ye Moyang only felt that Ye Kongyan's emotions were off, and he stretched out his right hand to place it on Ye Kongyan's wrist. Suddenly, his body swayed, and he stood unsteadily, gritting his teeth as he spoke word by word: "That little thing Ye Chen actually used such a heavy hand, this vendetta will not be repaid, I, Ye Moyang, swear not to be human!"

  At the moment Ye Kongyan unleashed his Dark Thunder Claw, Ye Chen was anxious and didn't intend to let Ye Kongyan off easily, so he used all his strength to strike a palm on Ye Kongyan's chest, shattering the meridians in his chest. If no one had given Ye Kongyan the Revival Pill, he would have been unable to practice martial arts for the rest of his life! If the Revival Pill was that easy to obtain, Ye Chen wouldn't have suffered for three years!

  At first, Ye Kongyi ridiculed Ye Chen as a waste person, and he probably wouldn't have known that he would end up like this today!

  Looking at Ye Kongyan's expression, Ye Moyang suddenly seemed to have aged ten years, just like Ye Zhantian back then. After staying in the sealed room for half a day, he stood up and stumbled out.

  Yunjia Fortress, the mansion of the master's family.

  "Your news is accurate, Ye Zhan Tian really advanced?" The speaker was an old man wearing a gray long gown, with a steady and calm demeanor. He was Yun Yi Yang, the patriarch of the Cloud Manor, with mid-9th stage strength, making him the undisputed number one expert among the eighteen Cloud Manors.

  Above the 9th rank, unless there is a spiritual elixir or a wonderful medicine, it's hard to make even a little progress, as difficult as ascending to heaven. The strength of mid-9th rank is already considered quite good in the entire Donglin County.

  Yunjia Fortress has two 9th-level experts and six 8th-level ones, making it the strongest among the eighteen fortresses of Yunyun. After years of careful operation, several other fortresses in Yunyun have become vassals of Yunjia Fortress, adding to its already formidable strength.

  "The news is accurate."

  "What about Ye Moyang?"

  Ye Moyang's son, Ye Kongyan, was defeated by Ye Zhantian's son, Ye Chen, and was imprisoned in the Leaf Family Manor's Disciplinary Hall for 10 years for using the Shadow Thunder Claw in the martial arena. Ye Moyang himself was stripped of his elder position by Ye Zhantian on the pretext that he had failed to teach his son properly.

  "Ye Zhan Tian has risen to the 9th rank, and in the family, he naturally has the final say. He can withdraw Ye Moyang's position as elder with just any excuse, and no one else dares to say anything. Ye Moyang is a waste of talent, unable to accomplish anything but causing trouble instead. What a waste of my Condensed Qi Pill! On the other hand, that Ye Chen's meridians have actually recovered. Could it be that Ye Zhan Tian really found him a Rejuvenation Pill?" Yun Yi Yang furrowed his brow. This Ye family fortress already had a Ye Cang Xuan who was very difficult to deal with, and now adding another Ye Zhan Tian, two 9th rank experts, made it even more impossible to make a move. To know that when two 9th rank masters go all out, it's extremely life-threatening! Even though Yun Yi Yang had already reached mid-9th rank, he still didn't dare take the risk lightly."

  After working so hard for so long, the plan to annex Yejia Fortress was actually thwarted like this. Yun Yi Yang would not be willing to give up. When Yejia Fortress was prosperous in the past, it had already threatened the position of Yunjia Fortress. Now that there are signs of resurgence, how can he let others sleep soundly? After some thought, Yun Yi Yang decided to borrow a few masters from the East Lin County Wangfu and thoroughly clean up Yejia Fortress.

  Time flies.

  Three days later, all the younger generation of the Ye family received the news. Ye Cangxuan and six others gathered together to modify the first level of Leiming Neijin. All the younger generation would receive a brand new oral formula for the first level of Leiming Neijin. Modifying the cultivation method was something that only an extraordinary predecessor would dare to do, and yet Ye Cangxuan and the others had actually modified the family's technique! This was simply unthinkable! Several elderly members were deeply suspicious, but when they saw the new oral formula for the first level of Leiming Neijin, they all fell silent.

  "Didn't the old clan leader obtain some sort of profound skill or great enlightenment during his experiences outside?"

  "It's possible that there is a way to change the cultivation method, but that would be no small matter. Even the seniors of the Ye family who have reached the tenth stage do not dare to modify the cultivation method arbitrarily!"

  "Has the old clan leader's Xuan Qi reached what level? Could it be that he has already reached the tenth stage?"

  The tenth rank, people of various tribes just think about it, if there is one person in Yejia Fortress who can reach the tenth rank, all the people in Yejia Fortress can walk horizontally in Donglin County. Which family in Donglin County can withstand the anger of a tenth-rank strongman? Even the king of Donglin County can only serve with good words when facing a tenth-rank strongman.

  Rumors have been circulating within the Ye family, but the clan members are overjoyed. The Ye family now has two 9th rank strongmen, with their strength ranking second among the eighteen fortresses of Lianyun. Ye Chen's meridians have also recovered, making him one of the top young strongmen. After the younger generation practiced the new Thunderclap Inner Strength Technique, their strength greatly improved. Although the Ye family is currently struggling financially, everywhere is filled with a thriving atmosphere. It won't be long before the family's business expands and their difficulties pass.

  After becoming the new head of the Ye family, Ye Chen had his own special mansion, right next to Ye Zhan Tian's. To ensure Ye Chen's safety, Ye Cang Xuan and others unanimously decided to arrange Ye Chen's residence next to the main house.

  Ye Cangxuan and five others lived and ate in the master's mansion, closing themselves off without coming out.

  These past few days, Ye Chen had been staying in the courtyard to cultivate. The main house of the Ye family had transmitted two intense Xuan Qi fluctuations one after another, which was clearly a sign that someone had advanced in rank. It wasn't until later that he found out that Ye Wanjun and another uncle, who had both been stuck at the seventh stage peak for a long time after cultivating the Lei Di Quan, had also advanced in rank.

  It's already quite good that two people have broken through so quickly. The profundity of the Lei Emperor's technique is not something that can be compared to the internal energy of thunder.

  It's time for me to cultivate too! Ye Chen thought to himself, sitting quietly on the grass, entering a meditative state, and condensing his vital energy.
