I Have an Immortal Emperor Uncle Who Farms at Home Chapter 33: Foundation Establishment Cultivator

Trying to get spiritual spring water for free? I, Ye Fan, don’t do losing deals. Even if spiritual spring water doesn’t hold much value to me, it’s still not something I just hand out for free.

Just as Ye Fan asked Song Lianjun if he had anything worth exchanging for the spiritual spring water, Song Lianjun recalled a mysterious stone bone he had obtained many years ago.

Based on Song Lianjun’s brief description, Ye Fan had a rough idea of what it might be but he still needed to see it in person to be sure.

"I’m sorry, Mr. Ye. I can’t bring out that stone bone right now."

As soon as he said that, Ye Fan narrowed his eyes slightly, clearly displeased with this answer.

Noticing something was wrong, Song Lianjun quickly explained: "Mr. Ye, it’s not that I don’t want to bring it out, it’s that I can’t. I’m powerless."

What does taking something from a hiding place have to do with powerlessness?

Ye Fan asked coldly, "Uncle Song, why is that?"

Then Song Lianjun told Ye Fan everything about the situation with the Song family in full detail.

"So, you’re saying the hiding place of that stone bone has been taken over by the three great families of Ying City?"

"The three great families? So this is your real reason for coming to me?"

"That’s right, Mr. Ye. If I don’t avenge this hatred, I’m not worthy of being called human. That’s why I beg you to help me regain my peak strength."

"Helping you return to your peak isn’t a problem, I could even help you surpass it. But you must give that stone bone to me."

To Ye Fan, restoring someone’s cultivation even helping them surpass their previous peak, was no more difficult than lifting a finger.

But for Song Lianjun, Ye Fan’s offer to help him "break through the peak" sent waves of emotion through his heart, he couldn’t calm down for a long time.

"Rest assured, Mr. Ye. From this day forward, my life belongs to you. You may command me—"

"Stop right there. What are you saying all that for? I don’t need anything else from you, just the stone bone."

As he spoke, Ye Fan signaled Da Huang to go to the backyard and bring a scoop of spiritual spring water.

Soon, Da Huang came back, carrying a ladle in his mouth. Inside the ladle was the clear, glistening spiritual spring water that Song Lianjun had long dreamed of.

"Drink it. Go home and meditate. By tomorrow morning, you’ll have fully recovered your strength.

Although… the process might be a bit uncomfortable."

Song Lianjun stood up and carefully accepted the wooden ladle, his hands steady, not daring to let them shake even slightly.

"Th-thank you, Mr. Ye."

Then he lifted the ladle and drank the spiritual spring water in one go, not wasting a single drop.

As the spiritual spring water entered his stomach, the aura within it instantly spread through every damaged cell in his body.

Without realizing it, the injuries from earlier had already completely healed.

"Go on. The effects of the spiritual spring water will take a bit more time to fully settle in."

"Thank you, Mr. Ye. I’ll head back now."

"Oh, right, once you bring me the item, I’ll give you a pill to help you break through."

Just those five simple words—"a breakthrough pill"—were enough to make Song Lianjun, who was just about to leave, freeze in place.

Even though he had lived for most of his life and already reached the Foundation Establishment stage, he had only ever heard of such pills, never actually seen one.

"I, Song Lianjun, will not let you down."

With that, he hurried off. After all, regaining his cultivation was now the top priority.

After watching Song Lianjun leave, Ye Qingcheng came out of the room.

"Ye Fan, has Uncle Song left?"

"He just left a moment ago. Sis, what’s up?"

"This morning, Uncle Song came by the house really early, saying he was looking for you. I didn’t know what he wanted, could it be about the cabbage?"

"Yes, sis, it actually is about the cabbage," Ye Fan added, "You know, it was after eating the cabbage that Uncle Song recovered from his long illness."

"Mm, I know about that."

"So today, he came first to thank us, and second because his old illness isn’t fully cured. He wanted some of the water from our backyard jar."

"No way… just for water?"

"Yep. I gave him a ladle of it earlier, and then he left."

"But isn’t that water usually used to feed the dog or water the vegetables? What’s so special about it?"

"That… I’m not really sure."

For now, Ye Fan couldn’t tell her about the spiritual spring water. After all, Ye Qingcheng wouldn’t be able to accept that so easily.

"Anyway, sis, I’m tired. I have to get up early for school tomorrow."

But then, Ye Qingcheng suddenly seemed to remember something.

She came over, sat beside Ye Fan, and asked: "Ye Fan, what’s really going on?"

Ye Fan’s expression tensed up instantly.

In his heart, he thought nervously: "Could it be… that Sis has already discovered one of my secrets?"

Ye Qingcheng continued to ask worriedly, "Who was that person Uncle Song drove away just now?"

Luckily, she only asked about the attacker.

"I think that person was probably sent by Yuan Lili—the one from the mall yesterday."

"What? Yuan Lili?"

"I’m guessing it was her."

"Disgusting. It’s that nasty woman again."

"Don’t worry, sis. They won’t dare come back."

After hearing Ye Fan’s words, Ye Qingcheng felt a bit more at ease.

"All right, go to sleep now. I’ll go check if Nuonuo is asleep."

Woof woof

……

On the other side, Qiu Lichen, who had fled in embarrassment earlier, returned injured to the Wang family villa.

"Uncle Qiu, how did it go? Did you bring the person back?"

Wang Haoran asked anxiously while holding Yuan Lili close to him.

However, Qiu Lichen was furious at Wang Haoran’s words, not just because of the Ye family incident, but also because no one even cared that he was badly injured.

Qiu Lichen now saw things clearly, this guy was just using him.

He stood up and said, "Wang Haoran, I’m done with this. I won’t get involved anymore."

"Uncle Qiu? Why? What’s going on?" Wang Haoran released Yuan Lili from his arms and asked, confused.

Qiu Lichen didn’t want to say more or rather, didn’t dare to say more. The scene he witnessed earlier in the Ye family’s courtyard was now deeply imprinted in his mind.

"Wang Haoran, about that woman, I suggest you stop thinking about her."

Qiu Lichen threw out this sincere warning, not for anything in return, just as a gesture of thanks for the Wang family’s past care.

"Qiu Lichen, what are you trying to do?"

Wang Haoran was also starting to get angry at his words.

"Thanks for everything the Wang family has done, but I owe you nothing."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qiu Lichen turned around and prepared to leave.

"Qiu Lichen, stop right there! You think you can just leave the Wang family whenever you want?"

Wang Haoran snapped, his tone full of menace. This made Qiu Lichen, who had originally intended to leave, pause and slowly turn around, ready to confront him.

But just then, a figure appeared behind Qiu Lichen.

"Wang—"

Boom— The attacker didn’t hold back at all and threw a punch directly at Qiu Lichen’s vital point.

Since it was a surprise attack while Qiu Lichen had absolutely no guard up, the blow sent him flying through the air before he crashed hard onto the ground.

Pfft! A mouthful of fresh blood gushed out.

"You… you’re a Foundation Establishment cultivator?"

The man didn’t answer. In a flash, he appeared right in front of Qiu Lichen and grabbed him by the neck.

"Uncle Zeng, wait."

The man called Uncle Zeng was Zeng Jingguo, the Wang family’s chief enforcer.

Zeng Jingguo glanced at Wang Haoran and then threw Qiu Lichen to the ground.

Cough cough… "Wang Haoran, why are you doing this?"

"Qiu Lichen, the Wang family doesn’t keep useless people around. You failed me, so you deserve to die."

"You—!"

Pfft— Qiu Lichen never imagined that after following Wang Haoran for so many years, he would be treated so heartlessly.

"Qiu Lichen, don’t blame me. You’ve only got yourself to blame for being useless. Hahaha!"

But just as Wang Haoran finished laughing, Qiu Lichen also began to laugh.

"Hahaha…"

"What are you laughing at?"

"I’m laughing… because your fate will be just like mine, you’ll die a terrible death."

Qiu Lichen knew that this spoiled brat Wang Haoran would definitely try to go after the Ye family again.

And just thinking of that mysterious powerhouse from the Ye household gave Qiu Lichen comfort, as if he could already see the downfall of the Wang family.

"You really think that’s possible? In the whole of Laiyang Town, who could be a match for Uncle Zeng?"

As he said that, Wang Haoran respectfully turned to look at Zeng Jingguo.

Then Zeng Jingguo calmly finished Qiu Lichen off with a single strike.
