Chapter 394, Invincible Below Level 100

The so-called ‘truce’ refers to this scroll.
This was one of three scrolls jointly created by the Ancestors of the Ye, Huang, and Loong Families, capable of sealing off designated Map Resources.
There were only three Crafting Recipes for making this scroll, with each Family’s Ancestor possessing one. They had agreed that if conflicts arose between the Families in the future, this scroll could be used to seal off all resources and mansions belonging to their Family. The seal would last for two months before being lifted.
Alternatively, the scroll could be withdrawn early, but it was a one-time use item – regardless of how it was used, once withdrawn, it would disappear.
Indeed, as Ye Wuxian withdrew the scroll, the Ye Family’s Map Resources lost their protection, and the scroll simultaneously dissolved into points of light and vanished.
The Ye Family Residence was opened by Ye Wuxian, who then turned back to smile at Lu Fan, having no intention of directly confronting the Loong and Huang Families.
“Let’s go, Junior Brother, I’ll show you around the Ye Family Residence. This is where I grew up, there are many interesting places here.”
“Hehe, alright.” Lu Fan smiled and followed Ye Wuxian into the Ye Family Residence.
The Ye Family Residence was indeed quiet, lacking any signs of life.
This was the result of Ye Wuxian sealing it off for over a month. Because of the need to hang the Truce Scroll, Ye Wuxian had dispersed the Ye Family’s servants early on, not letting them stay within the Ye Family Residence.
Now that the Truce Scroll had been removed, some nearby Ye Family servants should quickly notice that Ye Wuxian had returned, and naturally would return to the Ye Family to share in their fate.
Meanwhile, at the Huang Family Mansion, five hundred meters away from the Ye Family Residence.
In the training grounds, the Protective Barrier protecting the area from damage suddenly shattered, and the four Arrays supporting the barrier directly crumbled, losing their effect.
The two people in the training grounds simultaneously stopped fighting with tacit understanding, not continuing their battle.
Because both knew that if they continued fighting, the entire Huang Family Mansion might be leveled.
If other Huang Family members were present to witness this scene, they would surely be shocked.
Because the training ground’s Protective Barrier was formed by four Diamond Grade Arrays working together, such that even a Fourth Profession Player attacking with full force should not be able to break this barrier.
Yet, these two people had managed to shatter this barrier with just the residual force of their battle, indicating their strength was far beyond what ordinary Fourth Profession Players could compare to.
As the smoke gradually cleared from the training grounds, it revealed the two figures.
One of them had seven jade-white flying swords slowly circling behind him, wearing white robes and a feathered crown, appearing otherworldly and dignified.
This person was Huang Yutian, the number one Player among the Huang Family’s younger generation.
The person he was fighting with was equally extraordinary – the Huang Family Elder.
The Huang Family Elder had a Hidden Profession, Curse Heavenly Master.
Eight completely different talismans now appeared around him, any one of which could release extremely powerful Skills when activated.
Though they had stopped fighting, neither had contained their auras, which continued to emanate and collide with tangible force.
While they appeared to be similar in aura and strength, true experts would be able to tell that the Huang Family Elder still held the advantage in actual power. This was because the Huang Family Elder’s aura was more stable, unlike Huang Yutian’s which showed slight fluctuations.
Both possessed Hidden Professions with extremely strong abilities to do solo combat, so there was no inherent Professional advantage to speak of.
Therefore, these aura fluctuations often indicated that in a fight to the death, the Huang Family Elder would inevitably emerge victorious.
Huang Yutian clearly realised this as well. Now that the Protective Barrier had been shattered by their attacks, there was no point in continuing this training session. With a wave of his hand, the seven flying swords around him disappeared.
At the same time, the talismans around the Huang Family Elder also vanished.
Both simultaneously contained their auras, returning the area to calm.
Huang Yutian clasped his hands and said. “Your skills still surpass mine, Elder. Even after stabilizing for over a month, I still fall short of you…”
“It’s natural that you fall short of me.” The Huang Family Elder’s face was full of smiles as he nodded slightly, clearly very satisfied with Huang Yutian’s performance. “After all, I’m one Level above you, and I’ve been stuck at Level 99 for many years. Though I don’t know how to break through, my actual Combat Power is significantly higher than yours. Most people, let alone Level 98, even if they reached Level 99, would not be able to defeat me within three or four months after Leveling Up.”
“Without several years of accumulation, even fighting me at the same Level would give low odds of victory. You being able to demonstrate power that others only show at Level 99, while still at Level 98 is remarkable enough.”
After pausing, the Huang Family Elder smiled and continued. “Moreover, I can sense that your strength has improved tremendously during this time, and you’ve basically mastered control over your new found Level 98 powers. In half a year’s time, your strength will definitely surpass mine. Given three years, you should have no enemies below Level 100!”
“Such talent is absolutely unique among all Third Tier Ancient Noble Families. When you reach Level 99, there’s even a chance to elevate our Huang Family to become a Second Tier Ancient Noble Family!”
“If you can reach Level 100, our Huang Family will definitely become one of the Second Tier Ancient Noble Families and can move deeper into the Western Border.”
Being praised like this, Huang Yutian could not help feeling somewhat elated. However, on the surface, he still maintained a calm expression and asked emotionlessly. “Second Tier Ancient Noble Family… I will work hard to strive towards that goal.”
“En…” The Huang Family Elder nodded slightly, his gaze full of satisfaction and hope as he looked at Huang Yutian. “You cannot slack off in the future. Only by becoming a Second Tier Ancient Noble Family will our Family have the capital to resist oppression.”
“All these years the Ning Family has been bleeding our Huang Family dry. In the future, if you truly lead the Huang Family to become a Second Tier Ancient Noble Family, you must make the Ning Family pay back everything with interest!”
“Certainly!” Huang Yutian nodded, responding forcefully.
At this moment, a Third Profession Knight riding a large hawk, with an iron-like body, quickly flew over, jumped down from his Mount beside the two, knelt on one knee and reported. “Elder, Young Master, Ye Wuxian has returned to the Ye Family, and the truce has been removed. The Loong Family has received the news and is preparing to head to the Ye Family in the next couple of days!”
“Oh? Ye Wuxian has finally returned!?” Huang Yutian’s face broke into a smile, “What about that Dragon Tamer who previously confronted our Huang Family? Did they come together?”
