Fantasy: I Can Become Stronger By Lying Down

Ye Feng was born in a prestigious clan, and he was surrounded by powerful cultivators from birth. He had good relationships with his siblings, and his parents treated him well. He had an endless supply of rare resources. Miraculous elixirs were akin to snacks to him. What excuse did he have to not work hard in such a conducive environment? His decision was…to become a couch potato. Unfortunately, unbeknownst to him, even though his clan appeared peaceful on the surface, they were in a perilous situation now. Another clan, whose influences and resources were on par with theirs, was targeting them. Ye Feng’s clan members were very concerned, but they didn’t want him to worry about them. Therefore, they hid the truth from him, allowing him to be a carefree young master who didn’t even cultivate. However, unbeknownst to the clan members, Ye Feng was actually not useless. After he awakened the Couch Potato System, he only needed to lie down in order to improve himself. After lazing around for several years, he had already become one of the most powerful members of the clan in terms of ability. One day, after a small skirmish, war suddenly broke out between the two families. The elders of Ye Feng’s clan frantically pushed back the enemy and protected Ye Feng and the rest of the clan as they retreated. Even the patriarch was prepared to fight to the death. All their valuables had been packed, and the juniors only needed to take the items with them. However, the patriarch was still an old man and was no match for their enemy. He was severely injured due to oversight. The battlefield was filled with crying. Right then, Ye Feng sighed. He slowly came forward and said, “In the end, I still need to act. I will most likely never have leisurely days in the future.” There was the sound of a sword being drawn. That night, the blood of their enemies was splattered all across the Ye clan residence.

Not Bad, He Is A Good Candidate For The Next Family Chief

Redakteur: EndlessFantasy Translation

Under Ye Han's command, all the Ye family disciples who were in Saints realm stepped out one after another. They drew their swords and attacked the Yuwen and Shentu family's pursuers

Ye Xing nodded silently in his heart when he saw this.

Ye Han was a good candidate. His leadership ability was good, and his cultivation talent was at the Upper-grade Earth rank. His cultivation had also reached the middle-stage of the Saint realm at a young age. In time, he would definitely become a Pre-Emperor.

Ye Xing was like a senior as he watched Ye Han's performance.

If Ye Han's personality was a bit better, he would be the most suitable candidate for the next family chief.

Ye Xing was delighted.

To be honest, although Ye Xing was the young master of the Ye family and was going to inherit the position of the Ye family's chief in the future, he did not want to take up the position.

The position of chief was superior and held great power in the family, it might seem like a prestigious title to the outsiders, but as the legitimate son of the current chief, Ye Xing knew how troublesome it could be.

There were endless family meetings every day, and he had to think of ways to make the family prosper.

At the same time, he had to take into account the improvement of his own cultivation realm.

It was completely against Ye Xing's ideals to lay flat and idle.

Ye Han was simply the role model of the next family chief.

Moreover, the position of the chief of the Ye family wasn't something that had to be inherited. It could also be passed on to other branches. 

When the family chief wanted to pass down his position, the family chief's bloodline would be considered first, followed by the branch family.

Therefore, if Ye Xing wanted to hand over the position of the chief to Ye Han, the elders in the family would not object at all!

The more Ye Xing looked like it, the happier he was. The corners of his mouth were almost crooked from his smile.

For so many years, Ye Xing had been thinking about how to not be the chief of the Ye family.

Now, a disciple who was suitable to inherit the position of family chief had suddenly appeared. Of course, Ye Xing was extremely happy.

While Ye Xing was considering how to give the position of the family chief to Ye Han.

The other members of the Ye family were on guard.

The Ye family confronted their pursuers from the Shentu family and the Yuwen family.

In terms of low-end combat power, the three families were almost the same.

However, the Grand Saint and the First-grade Pre-Emperor elder had yet to make a move.

As long as one of the two attacked, the state of being evenly matched would be instantly broken.

The old man saw that the Ye family members had drawn their swords and stood up. He laughed, "The Ye family is indeed a top family. Even in the face of a Pre-Emperor, you dare to draw your sword. I'm impressed." 

"Elder Feng, let's not waste time with them. It's better for us to quickly kill them," said Shentu Er.

The old man said, "Young people are always in a hurry. If these juniors cultivate normally, they will all be Grand Saints or even Pre-Emperor on the continent in the future. Why are you in such a hurry?"

Shentu Er's mouth twitched as he said, "Elder Feng, it is precisely because these people have great potential that we must kill them as soon as possible. Otherwise, they will grow further in the future."

After saying that, Shentu Er said to his subordinates, "Kill them all, leave no one alive."

Under Shentu Er's command, the Shentu family attackers instantly charged towards the Ye family.

Countless Saint realm auras surged over.

The Ye family didn't back down either. Although there were no Grand Saints or Pre-Emperor in the younger generation of the Ye family, there was no shortage of Saints.

The Ye family and the Shentu family were in a battle.

The Pre-Emperor old man saw this and said, "You guys should go as well. you are all the younger generation of the Yuwen family. You can not lose to the Ye family."

Hearing the old man's words, the Yuwen family's disciples, who had been waiting impatiently, turned into streaks of light and rushed toward the Ye family.

Ye Xing could not help but feel a headache when he saw the Ye family fighting with the Shentu family and the Yuwen family.

They started fighting just like that?

Wasn't it a little too fast?

At least wait for the Ye family's reinforcements to arrive before fighting.

If they started fighting so early, there would be a high chance that he would have to expose his strength.

Just as Ye Xing was having a headache, the Pre-Emperor elder of the Yuwen family noticed Ye Xing.

"Young Master of the Ye family, your family members are all participating in the battle. Why don't you join them?" he asked.

Ye Xing looked at the old man and chuckled. "I'm just an ordinary person with a Lower-grade Yellow-rank talent. I don't dare to participate in a battle between Saints."

The old man squinted his eyes and said, "Oh, really? But why do I feel like you're hiding your strength?"

Ye Xing's expression froze for a moment before it returned to normal.

"You must be joking, senior. I have a Lower-grade Yellow-rank talent. No matter how I hide my talents, I can't possibly be a Saint, right? Moreover, Senior is a Pre-Emperor, so no matter how much I try to hide my strength, it's nothing to you," Ye Xing said casually.

The more Ye Xing said, the more interested the old man was in him.

Now, the Ye family was already at a disadvantage, and the young master felt a little nervous.

He even dared to chat with him, a First-grade Pre-Emperor.

One must know that even Shentu Er, who was in the late-stage of the Grand Saint realm, dared not to chat with him.

A Pre-Emperor who had gotten into the Emperor realm could release auras different from other cultivators.

The old man said, "I'm afraid you are not that simple. You dare to chat with a Pre-Emperor. No cultivator in other realms would have the courage to do so."

Ye Xing replied, "Senior, have you forgotten? My father is a Seventh-grade Pre-Emperor, and the patriarch is a Ninth-grade Pre-Emperor."

Hearing Ye Xing's answer, the old man was slightly stunned. He pondered for a moment and found that it seemed to be true.

Although he wasn't a Pre-Emperor, if he stayed with a Seventh or even a Ninth-grade Pre-Emperor, he wouldn't be afraid of a First-grade Pre-Emperor.

Could it be that he was thinking too much?

Then, the old man looked at the battlefield of the three families and said, "It seems like they don't need me to do anything."

Ye Xing looked at the Ye family's disciples and found that they were losing, especially after the late-stage Grand Saint Shentu Er made his move.

They were obviously no match for the two families.

Ye Xing sighed. He looked at the old man and asked again, "We can't retreat? It's good for both of us to leave now."

Ye Xing really didn't want to fight.

Although the Ye family's disciples were no match for the two families, fortunately, no one was injured.

If the Ye family's disciples were injured, Ye Xing would have to take action even if he did not want to.

As the young master of the Ye family, Ye Xing could not just stand by and do nothing while he had the strength to prevent a disaster.

Of course, it would be best to make the two families retreat without making a move.

To Ye Xing's disappointment, the old man still shook his head.

Ye Xing sighed again and said, "If that's the case, then I have no other choice."

The elder of the Yuwen family was stunned.

What could you possibly do?

The old man looked at Ye Xing's position and was shocked to find that Ye Xing had disappeared.

Where did he go?

The old man looked around and saw Ye Xing on a mountain peak thousands of kilometers away.

He saw Ye Xing waving his hand at him and then gently pushing a palm out.
