Unrivaled Martial Emperor

“Many thanks, Young Patriarch!”

Chen Yunchong and Chen Hualong opened their eyes.

Their faces were flushed with excitement, and they could hardly contain their joy.

To them, Yuanfu realm experts used to be characters from legends, someone they rarely encountered in real life.

Even becoming a Qi Grandmaster seemed beyond their wildest dreams.

Now, not only had they entered the Qi Grandmaster realm, but they broke through it and became Yuanfu realm experts themselves. They were now the legendary figures they had once heard of.

All of this was credited to Chen Fan.

“Alright, your qi has steadily entered your primeval vessel. Cultivate hard from now on. If you protect the sect faithfully, advancing further won’t just be a dream,” said Chen Fan as he slowly withdrew his primeval force.

“We brothers will definitely devote ourselves to the clan!” Chen Yunchong and Chen Hualong patted their chests.

They had no room for second thoughts. If Chen Fan could grant them such power, they were sure he could take them back just as easily.

“Big Brother Chen Fan, I-I am a Qi Grandmaster...”

Chen Qingqing’s aura had also finally stabilized. She opened her eyes; they flickered in disbelief.

“That’s right. You are a Qi Grandmaster now.” Chen Fan smiled.

A single drop from the Fountain of Life contained a terrifying amount of energy. After consuming one drop, Chen Qingqing went from the sixth level to the ninth level—a consecutive, three-level advancement.

If not for Chen Fan's intervention, it could have even pushed her to the peak stage of the Qi Grandmaster realm. However, he, considering her well-being, restrained this excessive growth.

After all, he had saved Chen Qingqing using his precious blood, essentially rebuilding her with enhanced martial talent. Her talents were now only second to Chen Fan’s, so she was even more talented than Chen Zhengqing.

He did not want to waste the potential of a genius of the Chen Clan by his own hands.

“Girl, don’t slack off now. Although I helped you become a Qi Grandmaster, this has also made your foundation a bit unstable. Spend some time consolidating your foundation. Don’t try to advance to the next level for a while, you understand?” Chen Fan urged.

The Chen Clan had abundant resources now, and Chen Qingqing, being a valued talent, could request anything she needed. Since Chen Qingqing was still young, Chen Fan feared that the temptation to advance quickly would lead her astray.

Chen Qingqing nodded heavily and said, “Rest assured, Big Brother Chen Fan. I will keep it in mind and not disappoint you.”

“That’s good, then.”

Chen Fan nodded.

Then, his gaze shifted toward Chen Zhengqing. He grabbed at the air. Three more drops of the Fountain of Life flew out, and Chen Fan thrust them into Chen Zhengqing.

Gradually, those cracks in Chen Zhengqing’s primeval vessel in his dantian disappeared as the drops worked to mend them. Soon, the vessel blossomed with layers of immortal light.

About an hour later, Chen Zhengqing finished refining all the drops and slowly opened his eyes.

“Father, how is it?” Chen Fan immediately asked.

Chen Zhengqing nodded. A look of confidence surfaced in his eyes as he said, “It’s perfect now. I'll soon reach the fifth level."

The primeval vessel's surface cracks were gone, removing the obstacles in his martial arts path. The Sun Stone further increased his confidence.

Once he reached the fifth level, combined with his previously cultivated illusionary primeval vessels, he believed he could dominate Watermoon City effortlessly. He could even overpower two experienced fifth-level Yuanfu realm experts.

“That would be great.”

Chen Fan was pleased to hear that. He took out several storage rings and handed them to Chen Zhengqing. “Father, I confiscated these treasures from the blood-sucking bandits in the northwestern land.”

Upon examining the contents, Chen Zhengqing was astonished and remarked, “This... This is too much!”

After quite a while, Chen Zhengqing slowly returned to his senses and exhaled a turbid breath.

Their Chen Clan had risen to power by trampling the Tan, Liu, and Lin Clans and plundering their fortunes. However, that wealth seemed insignificant compared to what was in the storage rings.

“Father, this storage ring contains some precious elixirs. Aside from you and Grandfather, only Chen Yunchong and Chen Hualong have advanced to the Yuanfu realm within the clan—”

Before Chen Fan could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Chen Zhengqing. “What? The two of you have advanced to the Yuanfu realm?”

Chen Yunchong and Chen Hualong nodded and said, “We just advanced, thanks to the young patriarch’s help.”

“Good! Very good! Our Chen Clan now has four Yuanfu realm experts—no, five!”

Chen Zhengqing roared with laughter, almost forgetting to include Chen Fan, the strongest of them all.

Chen Zhengqing couldn't clearly discern Chen Fan's current cultivation level. However, he believed that his son had likely surpassed him in strength.

“Father, these few Yuanfu realm powerhouses are still not enough. I have obtained several Realm Breaking Pills, Nine Revolution Golden Pills, and other precious elixirs. I plan to pick out a few more people and use them for martial infusion to raise their cultivation levels.”

“Alright, I’ll have it arranged right away! I had no idea what to do when the other martial clans invited our Chen Clan to participate in the City Clash Convention.”

Chen Fan raised his eyebrow and asked, “Oh? The City Clash Convention?”

Chen Zhengqing explained, “It's an event where the younger generation of martial clans in Watermoon City gather for a meeting and a competition. This time, they've decided to include a substantial prize.

“Although our clan has developed rapidly over the past year, our younger generation doesn't match up to those from the established martial clans in Watermoon City.

“The other large clans have invited our Chen Clan to the City Clash Convention to make us bleed financially.”

Chen Fan understood the situation. The Chen Clan had gained a foothold in the city by eliminating the Lin Clan.

So, every other clan in the city saw them as outsiders. They were unhappy with them for swallowing most of the Lin Clan’s businesses and assets.

Eager to draw some benefits from the rising power that was the Chen Clan, these clans had organized the City Clash Convention and extended an invitation.

“Since they have set up the board, our clan shall play along with them. We’ll see who will be the one bleeding in the end!” Chen Fan smiled coldly.

The younger generation of the Chen Clan had been inferior in the past, but the dynamics were shifting with Chen Fan's return.

His objectives for coming back this time were to hand the treasures he had obtained in Loulan Ancient Imperial City to Chen Zhengqing, as well as to perform martial infusion on some of the clan members and raise their cultivation level to improve the clan’s overall strength.
