A man from the Big Dipper, starting his charlatanship at Mount Tai.

Seeing that Fenghuang had withdrawn her gaze, Ye Fan no longer paid attention to her.

Isn't it just the female cultivator sizing her up?

Instead of worrying about that, you should worry about the male cultivators who came to beat him up because of Li Xiaoman.

Ye Fan recently discovered that there were actually a few Li Xiaoman supporters among the students of Donglai Immortal Mountain. Although they weren't a significant force yet, this trend was very bad! He had already heard that someone was organizing a group to beat him up!

However, just as he looked away and before he could say anything, he noticed... Pang Bo was actually winking at him.

"Pang Bo, what's with that expression? Are you really that unwilling to treat us?"

Ye Fan's lips twitched. He thought that Pang Bo might be terrified of poverty. Should he... spend more time comforting Pang Bo's wounded heart?

Upon hearing this, Pang Bo's already dark face instantly turned even darker:

"Damn it! Ye Zi, what are you thinking? Do you think I'm that kind of person?"

"I was covering for you! Didn't you see that woman's gaze towards you was strange? And... she's walking towards you!"

"Um!?"

Reminded by Pang Bo, Ye Fan looked up again in the direction of Phoenix.

Pang Bo was right; the woman with the crimson veil was indeed walking towards him! And... her gaze was quite resolute!

"Ye Zi, what's wrong with her? Why is she looking at you like that?" Pang Bo couldn't help but ask.

"I!"

"Heaven and earth bear witness! I've been preparing for the Four Great Tribulations lately, how could I have had time to go out and flirt with other women!" Ye Fan said, feeling wronged.

"Oh? Brother Ye, you mean that if it weren't for preparing for the Four Great Calamities, you would have already gone out to philander?" Li Heishui asked at just the right moment.

Ye Fan: "......."

"Brother Li, you know me."

"I'm too upright a person, how could I possibly do something that would be immoral?"

Tu Fei laughed heartily: "Haha~ Brother Ye, stop talking about these trivial things, you should deal with that person first~ She is the princess of the Feng family."

"The princess of the Feng family? Sorry... I've never heard of her."

Li Heishui: "Well, time is of the essence. Brother Ye, all you need to know is that the Feng family was once wealthy, but they have fallen on hard times. They are weaker than the imperial family, but stronger than the saints."

Li Heishui gave Ye Fan a quick lesson on the spot, then pushed him out.

At this moment, Fenghuang walked up to them and performed a greeting as a peer.

"Feng family's Phoenix greets Brother Ye."

Ye Fan, who was pushed out, stumbled, then laughed:

"So it's the Phoenix Fairy of the Feng family. Seeing is believing. The Phoenix Fairy is graceful and has an amazing appearance, far surpassing the rumors."

"I just wonder... what business does Fairy Phoenix have with me?"

Ye Fan acted as if it were business.

There was nothing he could do; he was terrified of being tricked by Lin Xiu, and he was afraid that Feng Huang was also Lin Xiu's shill, arranged by Lin Xiu to work with Li Xiaoman in a coordinated attack.

Qin Yao and Ji Ziyue are both nearby right now!

If Phoenix were to do something underhanded to him, his reputation would be completely ruined!

Phoenix: "......."

Phoenix felt that Ye Fan wasn't paying attention at all, and he even said she had stunning looks? She was still wearing a veil, how could Ye Fan tell that she had stunning looks?

However, Phoenix couldn't very well refute such flattery. She smiled politely and then began to speak according to the pre-arranged plan:

"Brother Ye, you flatter me. It is our first meeting. I have prepared a small gift, and I hope you will not find it offensive."

As she spoke, Phoenix slightly raised her hand, and a jade bottle containing golden dewdrops flew to Ye Fan's side on its own.

[This is... dragon marrow? And it's dragon marrow of extremely high purity.]

Why did this woman give me a gift on our first meeting?

Could it be that I've finally made it big? Reached a level where I can now embezzle and accept bribes?

Although Ye Fan was somewhat tempted, he still straightened his expression and said:

“Phoenix Fairy, if you have something to say, just say it.”

"I will do what I can, and what I cannot do will not change because of this drop of dragon marrow."

"He who eats another's food is bound to him; he who takes another's gift is bound to be obligated." Ye Fan realized that Phoenix must have something to ask for when she came with gifts.

Phoenix's hand froze, and her brows furrowed slightly:

"Alright, Brother Ye is an upright man, Phoenix has gone to unnecessary trouble."

"However, Phoenix truly admires Brother Ye's combat prowess, especially his feat of taking down the Innate Dao Diagram, which has captivated Phoenix and inspired her to befriend him."

"Therefore, regardless of whether it is accomplished or not, please accept this drop of dragon marrow, Brother Ye."

Phoenix truly admired Ye Fan. In the entire Donglai Immortal Mountain, besides Lin Xiu, Ye Fan was the person she admired the most.

To stubbornly resist the innate Dao diagram and such is simply inhuman.

It was precisely because of this comparison under equal conditions that she abandoned her original arrogance and devoted herself to cultivation.

In a sense, Ye Fan could even be considered her benefactor... it's just that Ye Fan himself didn't know that.

.......

"Haha~ You flatter me, fairy. Let's put aside making friends for now and get down to business~"

If you want to get things done, state what you need first before discussing the price!

Ye Fan wouldn't give a discount just because the other party was a woman!

Phoenix knew Ye Fan wouldn't fall for that, so she spoke directly:

"To be honest, Phoenix came here for Immortal Lin."

"I've heard that Brother Ye and Immortal Lin are very close. I'd like to inquire about Immortal Lin's experiences. I wonder if Brother Ye could enlighten me?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

So you were looking for Lin Xiu? That made him gasp for breath.

If they're looking for Lin Xiu, then it can't be to harm him.

"Oh? What do you want to know?" Ye Fan asked.

Phoenix: "I've heard that Immortal Lin once comprehended the Dao in Tai Xuan, and in one day he grasped the mysteries of the 108 peaks of Tai Xuan... Is this true?"

"Huh?...It should be true, right?"

Ye Fan didn't know where the rumor that "Lin Xiu comprehended all 108 peaks of Tai Xuan in one day" came from. He remembered that Lin Xiu had taken Yan Ruyu to climb the mountain for many days.

However, the facts are basically true, just not as fast as Phoenix said.

Phoenix nodded:

"Alright. I've also heard that Immortal Lin once fought against the phantoms of Great Emperors during his tribulation, with a total of nine Great Emperor phantoms appearing?"

"Yes, that is true."

"But Phoenix Fairy, what's the connection between these two things you asked about?" Ye Fan raised an eyebrow.

Phoenix: "There's some connection, I guess~"

"Recently, several members of the Feng family and powerful figures in the Holy City jointly reported that they sensed a familiar aura in the Emperor's Shadow during Immortal Lin's tribulation."

"The Feng family speculates... that might be the aura of the Feng family's ancestral emperor!"

"Huh? The Feng family's ancestral emperor? Who?"

Ye Fan suddenly thought of a possibility.

Others might not know, but how could he not know that the imperial figures Lin Xiu faced during his tribulation were all related to his bloodline or the Great Dao?

But Feng Huang said that among these people was the Feng family's ancestor?

In other words... that illusory figure of the Great Emperor whose identity he was unsure of was the Feng family's ancestral emperor?

Chapter 320 Emperor Ye Wants a Reward

Under Ye Fan's gaze, Feng Huang nodded and reiterated:

"The ancestor of the Feng family was the human Emperor Fuxi."

"Although the Feng family was in decline for a period of time, after the restoration, we still managed to find some of the classics and inheritances and confirm the name of the Emperor Ancestor."

"Huh? Emperor Fuxi!?"

Ye Fan's lips twitched. He never expected to hear a name he was very familiar with from Feng Huang.

However, upon closer examination, it doesn't seem to make any mistakes.

The Void Emperor of the Ji family has a lineage on Earth, and the Fuxi Emperor of the Feng family also left a lineage on Earth, so it's quite normal, right?

[Damn! It's both the Void Emperor and the Fuxi Emperor... Could it be that many emperors from the Big Dipper have lineages on Earth?!]

Ye Fan felt that there was much room for investigation in this matter.

Although he is no longer a member of Tianxuan, he can still be a member of the Ji family, the Feng family, or even more families!

"Brother Dao, have you heard of the name of the Emperor Ancestor?"

Phoenix felt that Ye Fan's reaction was excessive.

"Um... I have actually heard of that."

"My fairy, you may not know this, but I come from the other side of the starry sky. The Great Emperor Fuxi once left his illustrious name in my hometown."

"If I'm not mistaken, the Fuxi Emperor that the fairy spoke of... should be proficient in Tai Chi Yin Yang and the art of divination?"

Phoenix nodded: "Yes, Brother Ye is right, that is indeed the strength of the Emperor Ancestor."

"Sigh~ I knew it! I knew it!"

Ye Fan finally confirmed that the man holding the Emperor's Tablet and with the Tai Chi symbol above his head during Lin Xiu's Heavenly Tribulation was none other than Emperor Fuxi!

Considering the legends left behind by Fuxi on Earth... could he still have Fuxi's imperial blood flowing in his veins?
