After devising a plan, Xiao Chen made his way toward the mission hall.
A few moments later, a magnificent hall with a grand and ancient aura came into view, bustling with disciples entering and exiting.
Suddenly, a handsome young man adorned in a pristine white cultivation robe stepped inside the mission hall.
"Senior Brother Xiao."
"Hey, look! Senior Brother is unparalleled as ever."
"Junior brothers and sisters."
Many male and female disciples greeted him, and he returned their salutations with a nod.
Previously, Xiao Chen had been renowned for treating his fellow disciples with gentleness and righteousness throughout the sect.
A senior brother image was unanimously established and acknowledged by his peers.
'The Heaven's will really works wonders, huh?' Xiao Chen thought with a wry smile, shaking his head.
After being defeated by Ye Fan, his character had changed to that of a third-rate arrogant trash, leading to the collapse of his senior brother's image.
Upon arriving at the mission hall, the old deacon in charge greeted him with a kind smile.
"Disciple Xiao, which mission do you wish to choose?" Xiao Chen responded with a respectful smile.
He quickly selecting the mission to hunt demonic beasts in the Crimson Ridge Mountain Range and left immediately to avoid running into Ye Fan.
An hour later, after he departed, Ye Fan entered the hall and disciples began to ridicule and laugh without a failure.
"Look, isn't this inner sect waste?"
"Haha, why did he come here with such a meager cultivation base?"
"Does he have a death wish?"
"Ye Fan is really shameless, staying in the inner sect for three years after losing his cultivation"
"If it were me, I would have committed suicide"
Upon hearing these remarks, Ye Fan cast a contemptuous glance at the group of disciples before silently leaving after accepting his mission.
'These lower realm trashes, I will deal with them after recovering my strength!'
Naturally, there wasn't just one mission related to hunting demonic beasts in the Crimson Ridge Mountain Range.
Xiao chen's plan wasn't to prevent Ye fan from going to the Crimson Ridge Mountain Range. He had other plans aside from stealing his opportunity.
As Ye Fan made his way to the mountain range, he seethed with anger, recalling the hurtful words he had heard earlier. The truth was that he had genuinely tried to commit suicide.
Three days ago, upon realizing that his cultivation was declining to the Spirit Condensation Realm which would result in the loss of his inner disciple status, he fell into despair.
He decided to end it all and went to a nearby cliff.
However, as he jumped off, his jade pendant began to emit an ethereal light and that transported him back to the top of the cliff.
Soon, a puff of smoke emerged from the jade pendant, transforming into a beautiful and enchanting woman who gazed at Ye Fan with complicated eyes.
Startled by her sudden appearance, Ye Fan struggled to speak, "Wh-who are you? How did you come from my jade pendant?"
Ji Rongmei ignored his questions and was lost in her own thoughts.
She was puzzled about how to proceed.
Although she was a general who had cultivated under the Immortal Ye Family, she wasn't their subordinate.
Rather, she was engaged in a bargain.
Despite fulfilling her part of the agreement, the Immortal Ye Family showed no intention of completing their end of the deal.
Later, Ye Zhiqiang, Ye fan's father made a deal with her, requesting her help in hiding his son in the lower realm in exchange for granting her wish.
Unfortunately, as she was fleeing, word of her actions got out, and people began hunting her down. When her physical body was destroyed, she managed to store her soul within the jade pendant.
Upon awakening today, Ji Rongmei quickly realized that she had absorbed Ye Fan's cultivation over the past three years.
After some thinking, she decided to assist Ye Fan, not only because he had helped awaken her but also because she needed to regain her strength.
She understood that, thanks to his father's arrangements, Ye Fan would grow rapidly and would likely seek vengeance for his father's demise.
She understood that chaos within the Ye family, could provide an opportunity for her to fulfill her own wish.
With this in mind, she told everything to Ye Fan and shared some knowledge about the cultivation world.
Ye Fan was stunned and looked at her with a dumbfounded face.
He struggled to accept her words about his family and his heart was arching with grief.
"Senior, is everything you said true? Is my father still be alive?"
"Indeed but I don't know about your father's survival, considering that we were hunted down, your father might have already...."
Ye fan didn't need to hear the rest of her words and his eyes turned red, shedding tears of blood.
"Father, I will definitely avenge you!" Ye fan vowed with a resolute expression after composing himself and a terrifying murderous intent surged within him.

After three days of diligent cultivation under Rongmei's guidance, Ye Fan successfully restored his cultivation to the Soul Strengthening Realm.
Rongmei had instructed him to focus on honing his combat skills and seizing opportunities, which is why he was heading to the Crimson Ridge Mountain Range.
As Xiao Chen and Ye Fan made their respective ways to the mountain range, somewhere deep within the Crimson Ridge, a young girl darted through the trees with alarming speed.
After some time, she landed atop a cliff and gazed at a cave that housed a formidable demonic beast.
This young girl was none other than Tang Bingxue!
