God of War Ye Fan: Sexy sister-in-law insisted on marrying me

Chapter 455 The Terrifying Connections Behind Tiankui Base!

They originally thought that this time, Ye Fan would undoubtedly die!

However, in the end, the wild arcs of electricity did not strike Ye Fan? Protected by the Nine Dragons, the electricity rebounded and blew up Pan Shi instead?

Heaven's will?

Is this the aura of a monstrous genius?

"I'm fine!" Ye Fan waved to Guo Li and the others, swiftly flashing in front of Pan Shi and Chen Hong. Ye Fan was counting on getting information about Prince Jin's arrangements in Great Xia and the background of the high-ranking person behind Prince Jin from Chen Hong.

Hopefully, this guy Pan Shi will live a bit longer!

Seeing Ye Fan flash over, Chen Hong smiled calmly, "Young Master Ye, there's no need for you to take action, I can end it myself!"

Chen Hong pulled the battle saber out from Pan Shi's chest and calmly looked at Ye Fan, saying, "From your mother's side, I should call you Young Master! However, it seems that we are destined not to be connected. The path I chose myself, I shall bear the consequences!"

The next moment, without any hesitation, Chen Hong plunged the battle saber into her own heart, her body collapsing to the ground. She convulsed violently a few times, and the vitality force in her body quickly dissipated.

In her final moment, Chen Hong was very clear about where she belonged, so she ended her own life to avoid some pain!

"Gurgle... gurgle..."

On the other side, Pan Shi's body convulsed violently, fresh blood bubbling from his chest and mouth, "Save... save me..."

Even at this moment, Pan Shi was still unwilling to give up, reaching out to grasp at Ye Fan, begging him for help.

Sensing that Pan Shi was at the end of his rope, Ye Fan wasted no time. He grabbed Pan Shi's head and hastily activated the Seven Stars Soul Extinguishing Hand, "Speak quickly! Where are Prince Jin's other bases in Great Xia? Who are the key people?"

"Prince Jin... has three more bases, one in the Northwest, one in the Northeast, and another in the Capital... The core people are Wen Jiang, Yu Yao..."

Ye Fan had too many questions in his mind, but it was clear that Pan Shi was not going to last much longer. Ye Fan had to choose the most important questions, "Who is the divine being behind Prince Jin, exactly?"

"The divine being behind Prince Jin... I... I have never seen him, I've only met his two worldly disciples. The divine being... is in seclusion and should come to the Capital after a while... But there's another Scorching Sun Emissary working with Prince Jin. The insect eggs in our bodies were provided by them... That emissary also has a subordinate named Zhou Ming..."

Pan Shi explained intermittently and, with his head lolling to the side, he passed away, devoid of any signs of life.

Although Ye Fan didn't get specific information about the divine being behind Prince Jin, Pan Shi still managed to provide some key intelligence. It turned out that the Soul Locking Wood indeed had connections with the power behind those Evil Cults, who not only supported Zhou Ming but also enticed Pan Shi, pulling one of Prince Jin's most important assistants to their side.

The Evil Cults that the Divine Gate had to confront were indeed a terrifying existence.

Especially those insect eggs they used could control Martial Arts experts and also mass produce some powerful individuals, unforeseeable and unpreventable.

But crucially, those Martial Arts experts didn't recognize the so-called "elixir pills," thinking that they could truly enhance their Martial Arts abilities. Little did they know that the pills actually contained insect eggs. Once consumed, the eggs would surge inside the body and merge with the host's meridians. Indeed, they could increase one's Martial Arts strength, but at the same time, one would sell their soul, becoming slaves to those envoys for life!

Moreover, according to the information transmitted back by the consciousness-less Red Silk Tyrant Body inside Ye Fan, there was a higher-ranked mother body above those insect eggs, just like the Red Silk Tyrant Body, which would regularly "collect rent" from those Martial Arts experts. The Martial Qi and vital energy they cultivated would be forcibly handed over in part.

If these envoys were allowed to continue growing, the future would be extremely terrifying.

Upon the Divine Gate's reopening, the task of exterminating Evil Cults and eradicating Evil Demons should begin with those envoys, and the super families they supported.

However, Ye Fan was curious, based on Pan Shi's words, that the strength of those envoys was at least at the Martial Saint Realm, so why didn't they take action against him directly?

This would have to be figured out slowly later!

A thought crossed Ye Fan's mind, and the Flame of Inheritance surged out, directly turning Pan Shi, Chen Hong, and the other corpses at the scene into ashes!

"Sorry to have worried you!" Ye Fan walked over to Songyang, Qi Yuan, and the others. The vitality force from the Divinity Fragment within him surged, quickly entering their bodies to help them rapidly heal their injuries.

The electric arc had not struck Ye Fan just a moment ago; he had been protected by the Nine Dragons Golden Light from the Rune Instrument, and at the same time had perfectly received all the inheritance within it.

Since Ye Fan's Root Bone had been upgraded to Spirit Bone, he could contain more Martial Breath, which is why, in the blink of an eye, Ye Fan had already broken through to the Martial Saint First Rank Realm. His control over Qi Force and comprehension of spatial power had reached a new level.

Ye Fan distinctly felt that from the inheritance moments ago, he had acquired a very rich collection of advanced martial arts techniques, but right now, he needed to first reassure everyone, then carefully reflect on his gains!

"Young Master Ye, I'm so glad you're okay!" Qi Yuan took a deep breath, with tears welling up in the corners of his eyes.

Songyang also breathed a sigh of relief with a smile, his heart finally at ease, and now he was able to properly report back to Director Chen.

Yu Qiang, Guo Li, Wang Fugui, Qi Jiao, and the others approached, showing their concern for Ye Fan.

Yet there was one person who stood aside, looking dejected.

From one of the Four Great Families, the Liang Family, came Liang Antong!

This old fox, Liang Antong, had intentionally made excuses about being away on a business trip to avoid Pan Shi's recruitment, and when Songyang represented Ye Fan to court him, Liang Antong similarly dodged.

Tonight, he thought Pan Shi had won, only for the situation to reverse again.

As a result, Liang Antong had managed to please neither side and was in an awkward predicament.

"Young Master Ye..." Liang Antong gave Ye Fan a bow, his expression incredibly awkward.

Liang Antong had seen everything clearly as Ye Fan had taken over control of Tiankui Base. Now he understood: before the young mistress had left, she had already set a trap inside the base. Anyone else who came to take over Tiankui Base would face dire consequences.

Yet, Liang Antong had still naively hoped to slip through the situation.

Liang Antong's lips moved several times, wanting to speak but not knowing what to say.

Ye Fan gave Liang Antong a fleeting glance and said indifferently, "Head of Liang family, you may leave... In light of the fact that you once followed my mother, from this moment on, we are even!"

This Liang Antong, though he had been slippery, had not done anything harmful toward Ye Fan.

"I... am..." With a forlorn bow to Ye Fan, Liang Antong suddenly seemed to age decades in a flash, walking towards the door in despair.

Liang Antong knew that the Liang Family had lost an opportunity for soaring success!

From now on, the rise of Tiankui Base had nothing to do with him!

What Liang Antong did not know was that Tiankui Base was not simply a facility for manufacturing runic weapons...

Tiankui Base itself was the core headquarters of the Divine Gate!

It was only after receiving the inheritance from the Rune Instrument that Ye Fan became aware of this!

"All of you go out, I still have some things to do here!" Ye Fan scolded Guo Li and the others sharply, then stepped toward the Rune Instrument!

A compartment popped open at the side of the Rune Instrument, above the words "Divine Gate Reactivation," holding a thick register within. Ye Fan opened the register, and a line of text caught his eye.

"Primary Reactivation! Division of subordinate forces of Divine Gate! Distribution of S-level forces, Nangong Family... Distribution of A-level forces, Capital Yu Family... Distribution of B-level martial forces... The respective command words are... When support is needed, one can simply activate these command words, and the corresponding level of reinforcements will arrive promptly..."

Ye Fan quickly skimmed through, the support from S-level forces was mostly super families from the Ancient Martial World, numbering around a dozen, while the A-level families were spread throughout the Great Xia Capital and the wealthy families in every province, holding immense influence economically and socially, such as the Yu Family in the Capital, on par with Tang Zheng's family, merely counted as an A-level force... As for the Ren Family of Flower Capital, the Shen Family from Guangcheng, they could only be considered D-level families!

At this moment, Ye Fan finally understood why taking control of Tiankui Base meant he could command half of the Ancient Martial World!

With such a formidable network at his disposal, he could traverse Great Xia unchallenged!

But if his mother had such a powerful force under her command, why hadn't she handed it over to him sooner?
