After being imprisoned in a women's prison for five years, I became a master of both medicine a

"This is......"

The light from the Dragon Ball shone into Ye Chen's brow, giving him a slight jolt, followed by a massive flood of information.

All the information flashed through his mind in slices.

Among these clippings, Ye Chen saw many scenes from ancient legends: Gonggong angrily ramming Buzhou Mountain, Nuwa mending the sky, the great war between demons... and many historical scenes recorded in historical books: glorious golden ages, the sinking of the land, and numerous wars against foreign tribes...

These Dragon Balls are like super cameras, circulating among their owners throughout the thousands of years of the Great Xia Dynasty, silently recording all kinds of events, big and small, in the history of the Great Xia.

It took him more than ten minutes to fully digest this information, and during this process, the dragon energy in the Dragon Ball was silently transferred into his body.

After carefully sensing it, he was shocked. This dragon energy was also a kind of energy in the world, similar to the true qi in a martial artist's body, but with a much higher energy density.

The portion he just absorbed was enough to increase the power of his attack by dozens or even hundreds of times.

In other words, although he is only at the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm at present, his actual combat strength is already at the late-stage of the Golden Core realm, or even the peak of the Golden Core realm.

As long as he doesn't encounter the only two Nascent Soul level experts in the Great Xia Dynasty, he has already reached the pinnacle of martial arts.

"What a fruitful harvest!"

Ye Chen sighed and wondered why Zhong Shengzi's strength hadn't improved so much since he possessed so many Dragon Balls.

Could it be that this dragon energy is selective about who it is?

After thinking for a long time without coming up with a solution, he could only tidy up and go back to bed to sleep with his wife in his arms.

......

At this moment, in Longdu.

Grand Tutor Yan and Grand Commandant Hong, however, could not sleep at all.

The two paced back and forth in the hall of their luxurious mansion, anxiously awaiting the results from Lin'an.

This operation was personally led by Zhong Shengzi, a Golden Core Realm expert. It is said that the Sakura Kingdom also sent an expert of the same level, along with the Seven Fiends of Miao Jiang and more than a dozen families of various sizes in Lin'an. The lineup was a hundred times stronger than that of Blood Shadow.

The two old men were initially full of confidence, thinking that the Ye family would surely be wiped out this time.

However, as time went by, no news came from Lin'an for a long time, and their hearts gradually became more and more anxious.

"Grand Tutor, there's news!"

Secretary Ma practically tumbled in, carrying a folder.

Grand Tutor Yan stopped abruptly, staring intently at him. "What's the situation? Has the Ye family already been wiped out by Zhong Shengzi and his men?"

"Grand Tutor, the Holy Son Zhong and his group's operation... has failed."

"What? The Holy Son Zhong actually failed?" Grand Tutor Yan's eyes widened instantly, and he stumbled back several steps before plopping down in his armchair.

After a long while, he finally calmed down and looked at the trembling Secretary Ma through gritted teeth.

"Tell me, what exactly happened?"

"According to our informant's report, the specific process was as follows..."

Secretary Ma, holding a folder, explained the entire matter to Grand Tutor Yan in detail, recounting all the information they could gather.

Upon hearing that Ye Chen had chosen to flee in the face of Wang Sheng's threat, Grand Tutor Yan pondered for a moment and muttered to himself, "He can abandon his woman at a crucial moment; it seems he really is a fool."

Then, he heard Secretary Ma report that Zhong Shengzi and Kawabata Murakami had engaged in a Golden Core Realm battle with a mysterious expert.

Because the battle took place at night and was far from their assigned intelligence personnel, those personnel were also unaware of what had happened.

All that is known is that Kawabata Muraki was murdered and his body was torn in two, while Zhong Shengzi's whereabouts are unknown.

"A Golden Core Realm expert actually died just like that. Could it be that one of the two people in the palace was behind it?" Thinking of this, Grand Tutor Yan couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

Fortunately, it was Zhong Shengzi who contacted the people in the Sakura Kingdom; otherwise, he would probably be in the Heavenly Prison by now.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly said to Secretary Ma, "Quickly contact the Truth Cult and inquire about the situation of Holy Son Zhong."

Secretary Ma reported: "We've already contacted them. The Truth Cult said that Zhong Shengzi was seriously injured, but he's still alive and has been rescued by their people."

"Phew..." Grand Tutor Yan breathed a sigh of relief and waved his hand, saying, "Continue."

Secretary Ma then recounted how Ye Chen returned to the warehouse, how Bu Mingyan led the Martial Alliance to the scene, how a great battle ensued with Wang Sheng's forces, and how Wang Sheng's entire army was ultimately wiped out.

However, at that time, a large number of Martial Alliance personnel were on guard within a one-kilometer radius of the warehouse, and the informants they had arranged did not dare to get too close, so they only got the final result.

After considering all the information, Grand Tutor Yan came to a rough guess.

Their struggle with the Ye family must have already attracted the attention of the palace. One of the two Nascent Soul cultivators in the palace attacked and killed Kawabata Muraki, a Golden Core cultivator from the Sakura Kingdom, but only seriously injured Zhong Shengzi, and ignored the others they sent to target the Ye family.

This shows that the palace's attitude towards their conflict was very ambiguous.

But one thing is certain: no matter how much they fight, they cannot bring any alien Golden Core Realm or higher experts into Great Xia, as this has crossed the bottom line of the Great Xia royal family.

Therefore, if they want to take action against the Ye family again, they can no longer rely on foreign experts; they will have to find their own way.

But now the Ye family can even mobilize the Martial Alliance. The entire Jiangnan Province has long become their backyard. It would be as difficult as climbing to heaven to take action against the Ye family again!

Upon hearing Grand Tutor Yan's analysis, Secretary Ma suddenly burst into laughter.

"Now that we can confirm that as long as we don't introduce experts from other races, the royal family won't interfere in our internal conflict with the Ye family, things will be much easier. Young Master will be back from the Black Fiend Sect in a couple of days, won't he?"

He has already reached the Golden Core Realm, and this time he even brought back the daughter of the Black Fiend Sect Master. This future wife is also a Golden Core Realm expert.

Upon hearing this, Grand Tutor Yan's eyes lit up instantly, his gloomy mood vanished, and he burst into laughter.

"That's right. We'll have our good grandson and granddaughter-in-law take action. With two Golden Core experts joining forces, I don't believe the Ye family can be so lucky!"

He had barely finished speaking, and before Secretary Ma could even flatter him, Grand Commandant Hong called.

"Brother Yan, have you heard about what happened in Lin'an? What should we do now?" Grand Commandant Hong's tone was extremely gloomy.

Upon hearing this, Grand Tutor Yan smiled slightly. "The Ye family is too powerful. I don't know what to do. Why don't we just stay put and wait for Elder Long to come out of seclusion? It's getting late, I'm going to sleep now." After saying that, he hung up the phone.

"Aaaaah...that old bastard!" Grand Marshal Hong's phone was crushed in his hand.
