Chapter 1042, Ye Wuxian’s Talent

Translator: Silavin

 

“Alright.” Lu Fan smiled, offering no objection.

 

In any case, with him and Xiao Ye present, even if they encountered an existence at the level of the Purgatory Broodmother, he could still protect Ye Wuxian.

 

Since this place allowed Ye Wuxian to temper her Level 100 Divine Skill, while allowing her to rapidly Level Up, he might as well let her freely hunt the Monsters here.

 

With Lu Fan’s tacit approval, Ye Wuxian’s hunting became increasingly swift and decisive, her Damage Output growing ever more formidable.

 

Even Situ Hengxing found himself startled by the speed of Ye Wuxian’s growth.

 

Clearly, when Ye Wuxian had first arrived, she could only follow Lu Fan’s lead. Facing even the weakest Monsters proved extremely difficult for her. One might even say she had been in mortal danger against these Monsters.

 

Yet now, Ye Wuxian’s Damage Output was not inferior to his own.

 

This was simply inconceivable. Although Situ Hengxing’s Profession did not excel in Dealing Damage, he was by no means weak.

 

And yet, he had been surpassed by a young woman who had only just reached Level 100.

 

Naturally, part of this stemmed from the overwhelmingly dense Fire Element within the Flaming Hell Dungeon Instance.

 

These Fire Element in the environment no longer troubled Ye Wuxian. Rather, she could mobilise them, use them to enhance her own power.

 

Meanwhile, Situ Hengxing found himself unable to display his true strength within the Dungeon Instance. With one waxing while the other waned, their capabilities had been drawn to the same level.

 

If they left this place, Ye Wuxian’s Damage Output naturally would not be so Heaven Defying, and Situ Hengxing would thoroughly surpass Ye Wuxian.

 

But for Ye Wuxian to display such strength here, it still dealt Situ Hengxing a considerable blow. Moreover, it was not merely Ye Wuxian’s Damage Output. Her overall strength improved at a rate visible to the naked eye.

 

Initially, when dealing with Lava Sandworms, she often lacked the ability to land a decisive hit. As such, she would always be in danger of a counter-attack, or she would waste considerable effort trying to slay one Lava Sandworm. Such a scene was frequent early on.

 

Later, when Ye Wuxian gradually gained perfect control over her new Level 100 Divine Skill. Each time she killed a Lava Sandworm or neutralised its attacks, she would employ precisely the appropriate amount of Mana, ensuring not the slightest waste of strength.

 

Each battle saw Ye Wuxian approaching perfection.

 

This rate of improvement exceeded anything anyone from the Supreme Tier Ancient Noble Families present had experienced.

 

This had nothing to do with the environment. It was purely a matter of Ye Wuxian’s own talent.

 

Eventually, Situ Ying even sighed while fighting. “Miss Ye’s talent truly commands admiration. My Niece, Situ Qianqian, is actually considered a genius within the Situ Family. Her understanding of combat and her speed of learning is practically the finest in the Situ Family. No other youth could match her. Yet compared to Miss Ye, Qianqian still falls far short… At the very least, under the same circumstances, she lacks Miss Ye’s astonishing comprehension. She would never have the ability to achieve such terrifying improvement during battle.”

 

“It’s truly difficult to imagine that Miss Ye hails from the Ye Family, originally a Third Tier Ancient Noble Family. If you were a Daughter of our Situ Family, your current strength would likely have achieved renown status throughout the whole Western Border by now. The resources Third Tier Ancient Noble Families have are limited, and they’ve somewhat hindered Miss Ye’s talent from blooming.”

 

Hearing this, Ye Wuxian smiled. “It’s nothing. I don’t believe the Ye Family’s resources have hindered me much. I’m more than grateful to have been born into the Ye Family. As the saying goes, diligence can compensate for inadequacy. Even if I didn’t previously obtain the greatest of resources, through my own effort, I can still catch up.”

 

Situ Ying nodded with a smile, glancing at Lu Fan. “Indeed, Miss Ye has encountered a great benefactor. With him present, your strength will certainly rise rapidly, becoming one of the outstanding figures amongst the younger generation of the Western Border.”

 

After a pause, Situ Ying said tentatively. “By the way, Miss Ye, if you require any resources, you’re welcome to request them from my Situ Family. With Miss Ye’s talent, you’re bound to become a pillar of the nation in future. If the lack of resources prevents you from fully displaying your natural talent, it would be too regrettable. Our Situ Family certainly wishes to establish good relations with Miss Ye and assist you in Levelling Up as quickly as possible, allowing you to reach your peak.”

 

Hearing this, Ye Wuxian felt slightly astonished.

 

Because the implications within Situ Ying’s words carried the clear intent of currying favour and establishing relations with the Ye Family.

 

For the Situ Family, a Supreme Tier Ancient Noble Family, to actively seek relations with the Ye Family, and from the looks of it, whatever needs she or the Ye Family might have, the Situ Family would do everything in their power to satisfy them.

 

This attitude made it seem as though the Ye Family was not a Second Tier Ancient Noble Family at all, but rather a Sacred Land!

 

If news of this reached the other Ancient Noble Families of the Western Border, likely no one would believe it.

 

Yet at present, it had genuinely occurred.

 

Ye Wuxian naturally understood that it was not merely as Situ Ying had said, that they valued her talent and wished to invest in her.

 

After all, this concerned Lu Fan’s relationship with the Ye Family.

 

Without Lu Fan, the Situ Family might still invest in the Ye Family, but they certainly would not adopt such an attitude.

 

Regardless, gaining the Situ Family’s support would only benefit the Ye Family. There were no drawbacks. Naturally, Ye Wuxian had no reason to refuse.

 

Thus, Ye Wuxian smiled and said courteously to Situ Ying. “Thank you very much Uncle Situ. I’m willing to represent the Ye Family in maintaining frequent contact with your esteemed Family in future. As for resources, our Ye Family can’t enjoy such things without reciprocating. In the future, let’s simply exchange what we have for what we need.”

 

“Haha, excellent!” Situ Ying smiled and agreed.

 

Seeing the Situ Family reach a verbal agreement with Ye Wuxian, bringing the two Families closer, the other Families naturally refused to be outdone.

 

If they could draw closer to Lu Fan through the Ye Family, in the future, below the Sacred Lands, their Families would fear no one!

 

When Supreme Tier Ancient Noble Families had disputes over resources, they would need to consider such implications when handling matters.

 

But with this connection to Lu Fan, they could confidently and boldly present their demands.

 

As long as they were not in the wrong and could have Lu Fan stand witness, who would dare bully them!?

 

Everyone spoke up, expressing that they too valued Ye Wuxian’s talent greatly. They stated that if there were any future needs, Ye Wuxian could freely seek them out at their various Families, and they would provide full support, ensuring Ye Wuxian became a top expert and strengthen her position within the Western Border.
