Chapter 1065, The Tie Family’s Wicked Intentions

Translator: Silavin

 

It could be said that Lu Fan and Ye Wuxian had undoubtedly claimed the best Rewards from the Flaming Hell Dungeon Instance. Ye Wuxian’s equipment alone was likely worth more than the combined haul of every other person present.

 

Yet not a single soul harboured any thought of envy or jealousy. After all, had Lu Fan not been there, it was doubtful whether any of them would have made it out of the Dungeon Instance alive, let alone walked away with such abundant Rewards.

 

Still, everyone was rather curious as to what Grade and Attributes Ye Wuxian’s new equipment actually possessed.

 

And so, naturally, someone spoke up to ask.

 

Truthfully, Lu Fan was rather indifferent about this matter. After all, given his strength, even if Ye Wuxian’s Purgatory Overlord Equipment Set’s Attributes and Grade were completely exposed, it would not matter.

 

Because he genuinely did not believe anyone would dare harbour any ill-intentions toward Ye Wuxian.

 

Generally speaking, people’s unwillingness to reveal their strength and obtain benefits stemmed from fear of inviting fatal disaster, fear of being coveted by others.

 

But for Lu Fan, whoever dared to make a move against him would be no different from seeking death.

 

Originally, Lu Fan had intended to directly tell everyone that Ye Wuxian wore a complete Legendary Grade Equipment Set.

 

However, Ye Wuxian discerned Lu Fan’s intention and shot him a meaningful glance, signalling him not to reveal her equipment’s Grade.

 

Seeing this, Lu Fan understood. Ye Wuxian still maintained her previous attitude, believing that wealth should not be flaunted, otherwise it would invite fatal disaster.

 

Just like before, when their Ye Family had fallen into decline, was it not precisely because other Third Tier Ancient Noble Families knew the Ye Family possessed considerable resources while simultaneously lacking the power to protect them which resulted in their dire straits?

 

Regardless of circumstances, exposing one’s wealth would inevitably attract trouble.

 

Ye Wuxian had served as the Ye Family Matriarch for some time now. She handled matters with increased caution and prudence, having such thoughts was perfectly normal.

 

She had yet to shift her mindset, not realizing that as long as one possessed sufficient strength, there was absolutely no need to worry about being coveted.

 

The saying ‘one needn’t fear thieves stealing, only thieves coveting’ ultimately stemmed from having insufficient strength.

 

And now, Ye Wuxian already possessed an Ancient God Divine Seat. Although her control over her new Ancient God Power was still lacking, just invoke it to deal with ordinary Players was more than enough.

 

She could even massacre a Supreme Tier Ancient Noble Family, and probably few could stop her.

 

Ye Wuxian was already extraordinarily powerful, yet her mentality had not caught up to her current strength.

 

This was also normal. If Lu Fan revealed her equipment’s Grade now, it would probably make her rather anxious.

 

Therefore, Lu Fan simply let her handle it as she wished. She gave everyone a faint smile and offered a simple ‘inconvenient to disclose’, managing to deflect the question.

 

With Ye Wuxian saying this much, naturally no one would continue pressing. After all, that would be far too impolite.

 

Therefore, this topic could only end there. No one dared ask another question.

 

But in reality, the more Ye Wuxian concealed, the more it proved her Equipment Set’s Grade was absolutely exceptional.

 

At minimum, it had to be a complete Epic Grade set.

 

Otherwise, Ye Wuxian would not be unwilling to reveal the equipment’s Grade.

 

Now, saying the crowd felt no envy toward Ye Wuxian’s harvest from the Flaming Hell Dungeon Instance would be a lie.

 

Everyone mentally calculated just how much each equipment from the Flaming Hell Dungeon Instance was worth.

 

So far, just on Ye Wuxian’s person, an entire Equipment Set had already been obtained. Lu Fan similarly held a new weapon from the Dungeon Instance.

 

Such high drop rates were inseparably related to this being the Dungeon Instance’s first Clear. However, if they cleared it several more times in the future, they might still be able to obtain this complete Equipment Set.

 

Therefore, the Situ Family members who possessed this Dungeon Instance still had reason for anticipation, to see whether they could assemble the complete Equipment Set Ye Wuxian wore.

 

Everyone retraced their route, quickly returning to the Situ Family.

 

 

The Situ Family members had long since learned that everyone had successfully Cleared the Flaming Hell Dungeon Instance, and had already made preparations within the Family to welcome them.

 

Returning to the Situ Family, they did not immediately convene the so-called victory celebration banquet. Instead, they first arranged for everyone to rest and recover from the fatigue accumulated from Clearing the Dungeon Instance.

 

Lu Fan and the others were assigned to guest quarters to rest, enjoying a good day and night’s sleep.

 

During this time, the Situ Family members continuously prepared the banquet’s dishes, songs, dances, and entertainment programs, ensuring Lu Fan would be satisfied with this victory celebration.

 

However, while everyone else was resting, a Player from the Tie Family set up a small Secret Realm in his room and dove inside.

 

This Tie Family Player was also one of the Players who had accompanied everyone into the Flaming Hell Dungeon Instance.

 

Because he typically spoke very little, he was not particularly conspicuous within the group.

 

Of course, he had not been completely silent either. At minimum, after Lu Fan displayed his astonishing strength, his flattery toward Lu Fan was no less than anyone else’s.

 

Simultaneously, he had also agreed with the Ye Family to provide them with numerous Dungeon Instances.

 

On the surface, he appeared identical to everyone else, utterly convinced by Lu Fan’s strength.

 

However, in reality, the jealousy burning within his heart far exceeded that of others.

 

Moreover, he himself was a Player skilled in using Fire Element Skills. He coveted Ye Wuxian’s Equipment Set.

 

If he could also obtain that Epic Grade or higher Equipment Set that Ye Wuxian wore, his strength would easily make him the number one expert of the Tie Family, leading the Tie Family to become the foremost Supreme Tier Ancient Noble Family.

 

In a few more decades, becoming a Sacred Land was possible!

 

Therefore, he had developed wicked intentions toward Ye Wuxian.

 

While Ye Wuxian had indeed progressed rapidly, ultimately, she was merely a Player who had just reached Level 100.

 

Even if she was genuinely very strong, if the Tie Family dispatched over a dozen experts to surround and attack her, subduing her should not be a problem.

 

As long as they subdued her, they could then strip all the equipment from her body.

 

As for Lu Fan?

 

He was indeed very formidable. The Tie Family simply could not afford to provoke him.

 

However, they could abduct Ye Wuxian and use her as a hostage.

 

Simultaneously, the Tie Family could relocate their entire household, moving deeper into the Western Border.

 

The Western Border was so vast that trying to find the Tie Family would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

 

Perhaps doing this would force the Tie Family to hide for many years, but compared to what they would gain, it was absolutely worth it.

 

Hiding for several decades while building up their strength, they could even take down a Supreme Tier Ancient Noble Family to use as a puppet Force.

 

As long as Lu Fan could not find them, their Tie Family would inevitably become a Sacred Land in the future.

 

Thinking of this, this Tie Family Player grew increasingly excited.

 

He pulled out a Communication Stone and contacted his Family members, reporting everything back.
