Looking at his second disciple’s stunned expression, Jiang Yiming couldn’t help but laugh, “Alright, don’t be so surprised. This house is not as simple as being simply exquisite.”

Jiang Yiming’s mysterious words instantly aroused Ye Yunfan’s curiosity, so he asked, “Master, is there anything magical about the house?”

“There’s no need to ask me. Just meditate and feel the spiritual energy here,” Jiang Yiming said with a faint smile.

Ye Yunfan immediately did as he was told. He sat cross-legged and circulated his cultivation technique.

In an instant, with him as the center, the spiritual energy around him surged crazily.

The spiritual energy was like a tidal wave, pouring into his body continuously.

Vast spiritual energy flowed through all the meridians in his body, nourishing every acupoint.

In just a short while, Ye Yunfan felt much better.

“Master, what’s going on?!” Ye Yunfan exclaimed as he opened his eyes. His shock could not be described with words.

If he were to say that he was somewhat in disbelief that the Lingyun Sect had built a grand hall in a few short days, the extremely dense spiritual energy, on the other hand, completely overturned his understanding.

“Senior brother, why are you always making a fuss?” Huang Chaoyu covered her mouth and laughed, “If you knew my current strength, wouldn’t you be even more shocked?”

“Your strength?” Ye Yunfan suddenly had a bad feeling.

Sure enough, in the next moment, the smiling Huang Chaoyu suddenly unleashed her aura.

She didn’t hold back in pouring out her cultivation at the early-stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Ye Yunfan was in the late-stage of the Qi Meditation Realm, so he was especially sensitive to the aura of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

As soon as Huang Chaoyu revealed her aura, his entire body went completely numb.

He cried out involuntarily, “Foundation Establishment Realm, how is it possible?”

“How is it impossible?” When Huang Chaoyu saw her senior brother’s shocked expression, her mood instantly soared, though she feigned anger as she said, “Can’t your junior sister enter the Foundation Establishment Realm?”

Only then did Ye Yunfan realize that he seemed to have said something wrong and hurriedly explained, “No, no, I didn’t mean that. It’s just that before I left the sect, you were only at the middle-stage of the Qi Meditation Realm. How is it that you’ve already broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm now?”

Ye Yunfan was, after all, a senior brother. Originally, he was at the late-stage of the Qi Meditation Realm and was one head above Huang Chaoyu.

But this time, after returning from his trip down the mountain, his junior sister had jumped three realms in a row and surpassed him.

He was a little embarrassed.

“Well, it’s naturally because your junior sister’s talent is superior to others,” Huang Chaoyu said without even batting an eyelash.

Ye Yunfan was confused at this point.

He knew that Huang Chaoyu was indeed extremely talented, but no matter how monstrous a person was, it was simply impossible for one to jump three realms in a few short days.

However, he couldn’t just say question his junior sister here and now.

Therefore, for a moment, Ye Yunfan was extremely conflicted.

He wanted to say something, but he just couldn’t say it.

Huang Chaoyu was very satisfied with his reaction.

Therefore, she didn’t joke with him anymore. She cleared her throat and said, “Although my talent is outstanding, the most important thing was Master’s help. To be honest, it’s all thanks to Master that I was able to leap into the Foundation Establishment Realm in just a few days.”

At this point, Huang Chaoyu paused and looked at Jiang Yiming with eyes full of joy as she continued, “By the way, senior brother, you don’t know yet, right? Master has already broken through to the Core Formation Realm!”

“What?!” Hearing this, Ye Yunfan completely lost his composure.

He immediately stood up, ignoring all the pain from his body at this instant.

“Master, is what junior sister said true?”

Jiang Yiming didn’t say anything. He simply nodded calmly.

But how could Ye Yunfan remain calm as well?

His eyes were bright as he said excitedly, “Great, this is really great! Master, now that you’ve broken through to the Core Formation Realm, the Lingyun Sect has the chance to become a fourth rank force. Added by the fact the junior sister has broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm and the sect has undergone such a change… I believe that under Master’s leadership, the Lingyun Sect will be able to rise very soon!”

Ye Yunfan was incomparably excited, and the spittle that flew about almost landed on Jiang Yiming’s face.

Jiang Yiming quickly took a few steps away and sighed in his heart.

Ye Yunfan’s intense reaction made Jiang Yiming feel as if he was the sect leader of the Lingyun Sect, but the real sect leader was himself, not Ye Yunfan.

“Alright, Yunfan, don’t be too agitated,” Jiang Yiming waved his hand at him as he said, “You still have injuries on your body. You should rest more. When you recover, I will teach you a cultivation technique. At that time, your cultivation will not be weaker than your junior sister’s.”

“Is what you said true, Master?” Ye Yunfan immediately calmed down when he heard this.

It wasn’t that he felt he had to be stronger than his junior sister, it was just that he felt if he could become stronger, the pressure of maintaining and protecting the sect wouldn’t fall solely on his master.

“Of course it’s true. Why would I lie to you?”

Just as Jiang Yiming said that, he suddenly had a feeling.

After setting up the Ultimate Spirit Gathering Array, nothing that approached the Lingyun Sect could escape his senses.

At this time, he had already sensed that there were quite a few strong auras that had intruded into the Lingyun Sect.

“Xiaoyu, stay here and take care of your senior brother. I’ll be right back,” Jiang Yiming ordered. Without waiting for the two of them to respond, he disappeared from the room.

“Master!” Ye Yunfan wanted to stop Jiang Yiming, but it was too late.

“Junior sister, what’s with Master?”

“I don’t know. Could it be that someone has broken into the Lingyun Sect?” Huang Chaoyu was also a little curious.

Hearing her words, Ye Yunfan immediately panicked.

Could it be that those people had come looking for him? A sense of unease instantly welled up in him.

He said anxiously, “Junior sister, why don’t you go and take a look?”

“But Master instructed me to take care of you, senior brother.”

“What can happen to me? Quickly go and take a look. Otherwise, the both of us won’t be able to rest at ease!”

Hearing Ye Yunfan say that, Huang Zhaoyu hesitated for a while more.

She was naturally very curious, but she did not dare to go against her Master’s instructions.

After hesitating for a while, she finally made a decision, “In that case, you must take good care of yourself, senior brother. I will go and see what is going on.”

“Of course, you must be careful too, junior sister.”

Huang Zhaoyu nodded and turned to leave.

Looking at his junior sister’s leaving figure, Ye Yunfan prayed in his heart.

Not long after, Huang Chaoyu returned.

Ye Yunfan saw her ugly expression and instantly realized that something was wrong.

“Junior sister, what happened?”

“It’s the Huoyun Sect. People from the Huoyun Sect are here.”

“What? They pursued us to this point?!” Hearing Huang Chaoyu’s words, Ye Yunfan immediately cried out.
