?55: Chapter 55 Leng Qingxue 55: Chapter 55 Leng Qingxue Jiangnan City, Biyun Pavilion.

    Ye Xuan was leaning on the soft sofa, watching a replayed program on television, his face expressionless, betraying no hint of his inner thoughts.

    Only the occasional frown on his brow proved that Ye Xuan was not at peace.

    In the television broadcast,

    a meteor shower of extreme rarity streaked across the sky from east to west, the blood-colored meteors exceptionally dazzling, prompting the excited host to shout and fabricate tales, claiming this meteor shower was a spectacle seldom seen in a thousand years.

    Turning off the television with a flick of his hand, Ye Xuan’s eyes narrowed slightly.

    He had already watched this replayed program three times.

    Others might not know what these meteor showers were, but Ye Xuan was certain that this particular one was comprised of Blood Souls and Mutant Beasts that had escaped from the Blood Sea Battlefield.

    And the scenes broadcast on television were just the tip of the iceberg; he feared that across the globe, these Mutant Beasts and Blood Souls had already hidden themselves in the shadows.

    “This world is about to change!” Ye Xuan murmured softly.

    Originally, Ye Xuan had thought that the appearance of these Blood Souls and Mutant Beasts in the Mortal World would inevitably bring about earth-shattering changes, and for the peace of his family, these Blood Soul Strange Beasts naturally had to be utterly annihilated.

    But when Ye Xuan learned of the conspiracy of the Primordial Spirit, that idea dissipated.

    According to his speculation, having cultivated the Undying Immortal Scripture, he was already a thorn in the side of these Blood Souls.

    Once they devoured enough flesh and Essence Qi, they would surely come looking for trouble with him.

    As these Blood Souls gradually regained their Cultivation, they would undoubtedly put great pressure on him, which is precisely what the Primordial Spirit wanted to see.

    The whole purpose was to force him to open that door and take the critical step to become an Immortal, as legends foretold.

    To become an Immortal!

    What enticing words!

    Even Ye Xuan, facing these two words, had reasons he could not refuse.

    However, Ye Xuan was no fool.

    How could the Primordial Spirit’s scheming be solely for his ascension to Immortality?

    He feared that once he pushed open that door, something truly terrifying would happen.

    Without understanding the Primordial Spirit’s true intentions, Ye Xuan would absolutely not step into the trap.

    In Cultivation, one cultivates life and defies heaven; a single misstep could lead to losing everything.

    And the outcome of losing could only be the complete obliteration of one’s Divine Soul and the extinction of one’s existence and Dao.

    Ye Xuan would not arrogantly consider himself the protagonist of heaven and earth, endowed with a kingly aura that repelled all calamities and commanded the respect and subjugation of all beings.

    If he truly believed that, he would not have achieved his current level of Cultivation.

    Plunged into deep thought, Ye Xuan kept planning the path ahead.

    First and foremost, the appearance of the Blood Soul Strange Beasts in the Mortal World would surely cause turmoil, but the lives and deaths of the people had nothing to do with him; all he needed to ensure was his family’s safety, which was enough.

    Secondly, Ye Xuan vividly remembered that several of the Blood Souls were exceedingly powerful.

    He needed to find them, for only from their lips could he learn what truly happened at the Ancient Battlefield in Ancient Times.

    A series of steps took shape one by one in Ye Xuan’s mind, a trace of a cruel smile curled at the corner of his mouth, and as he looked toward the direction of Duanchang Mountain, the icy and brutal intent to kill quietly crossed his eyes.

    “Brother, the New Year is just two days away, aren’t you going to take your little sister to buy some New Year’s goods today?” Ye Ling’er came in front of Ye Xuan at some point, shaking his arm and coquettishly saying.

    Ye Xuan’s thoughts circled back, and he laughed in a carefree manner, “Let’s head out now, today I’m going to give you another gift.”

    “Brother, you’re the best,” Ye Ling’er’s eyes sparkled as she eagerly grabbed Ye Xuan’s arm and stepped out the door.

    Since Ye Xuan had returned from the Blood Sea Battlefield, it had been a month, and there were only three days left before the New Year.

    He decided to set aside the matters of Blood Soul Strange Beasts for now, and instead focus on having a good New Year with his family.

    That was what he wanted to do at the moment.

    ...

    The 4S car dealership.

    Various luxurious sedans were parked here, and Ye Ling’er’s little face was filled with excitement as she looked around with great interest, her entire being like a joyful sprite.

    “Mr.

    Ye, this Maserati not only has a very high safety rating but also features beautiful body lines and top-tier interior decorations, which perfectly match Miss Ye’s status.

    You might want to consider it,” a female salesperson said with a smile.

    Buying a car!

    Ye Xuan and his sister were at this 4S dealership precisely to purchase a car.

    Even though Ye Ling’er was merely sixteen and didn’t know how to drive, that didn’t prevent Ye Xuan from giving her the Maserati as a New Year’s gift.

    “Hmm, let’s go with this one,” Ye Xuan nodded.

    “Brother, are you really buying it?

    But I don’t even have a driver’s license,” Ye Ling’er said, feeling a bit bashful yet radiating happiness.

    “If you don’t know how to drive, you can learn slowly.

    Having a car will make it much more convenient for you to go to school,” Ye Xuan said and handed over a Golden Card to the female salesperson in front of him.

    This made the salesperson beam with joy as she thanked Ye Xuan repeatedly and took the Golden Card to process the transaction.

    The scene of the siblings buying a car naturally attracted the attention of many customers, who commented in amazement, wondering whose young master and miss were out for fun, buying a car worth millions as if it was nothing.

    The saleswoman left quickly and returned just as fast, holding a car purchase agreement and respectfully handed back the Golden Card to Ye Xuan, “The license plate and all the necessary procedures have already been taken care of, Mr.

    Ye.

    You just need to sign here, and our staff will deliver the car to your home.”

    Ye Xuan was very satisfied with the salesperson’s service and was about to sign the purchase agreement when a cold and compelling female voice suddenly interrupted.

    “Wait, I’ll take this car,” said a young man and woman who appeared beside Ye Xuan at some point, exuding an air of authority.

    The woman had skin as white as snow and features like a painting, her dark hair up in a bun, conveying a sense of cold nobility.

    Yet her attire was unusual, made of silken fabric resembling the long robes worn by ancient women.

    “I’m sorry, madam, this gentleman has already paid.

    You might want to look at other vehicles,” the saleswoman, sharp-eyed, could tell the woman was no ordinary person and hurriedly bowed in apology.

    Leng Qingxue’s brows furrowed slightly.

    As an Ancient Martial Artist and a Grandmaster, she and her junior brother had just arrived in Jiangnan City and naturally needed to find a mode of transportation.

    This Maserati was exactly to her liking, but unexpectedly, someone had already purchased it.

    “I’ll give you double the price, give the car to me,” Leng Qingxue said, looking directly at Ye Xuan as she casually took out a Golden Card, giving off a strong and assertive vibe.

    Observing the woman in front of him, Ye Xuan’s eyes narrowed slightly.

    He had not expected to encounter an Ancient Martial Grandmaster in a simple 4S store.

    “Not for sale.”

    Although the other party was an Ancient Martial Grandmaster, in Ye Xuan’s eyes, that made no difference from an ant.

    How could he possibly give away the gift he had bought for his little sister to someone else?
