The impatient Feng Jiuge couldn't stand this, so she stomped her foot and said coquettishly, "Oh dear, my good junior brother, why are you so slow! Just say what you have to say! Don't you trust us?"

Ye Fan looked at his two senior sisters, sighed, and said, "Senior sisters, it's not that I don't trust you, it's just that this matter is extremely difficult to handle."

Feng Jiuge said urgently, "No matter how difficult it is, we have to try. It's better than sitting and waiting to die."

As she spoke, she angrily put her hands on her hips, her originally fair and delicate face now flushed red like a ripe apple due to her excitement.

Seeing this, Ye Fan scratched the back of his head somewhat embarrassedly before slowly saying, "Actually, there is a way to stop Fifth Senior Brother from betraying the sect, but this method might be quite risky."

Yun Ruoxi gritted her teeth: "No matter how dangerous it is, we have to try. It's better than watching our fifth junior brother betray our sect."

Hearing this, Feng Jiuge nodded slightly and then urged Ye Fan, "That's right, Junior Brother, stop keeping us in suspense and tell us your thoughts quickly."

Seeing his two senior sisters' anxious expressions, Ye Fan couldn't help but feel secretly pleased, but he still pretended to be worried and replied, "Alright, since you're both so determined, I'll be frank. One of the most important reasons why Fifth Senior Brother dared to betray the sect is his arrogance and complacency. So what if he makes a mistake..."

Yun Ruoxi frowned, her brows furrowing like ripples on a spring pond: "Junior Brother, do you mean to frame Fifth Junior Brother? Wouldn't such an action be inappropriate?"

Feng Jiuge waved her hand dismissively: "What's there to be afraid of? As long as there's a glimmer of hope, we have to try. Since Junior Brother was able to come up with this method, he must also have a countermeasure!"

Upon hearing this, Yun Ruoxi frowned slightly and pursed her cherry lips, but ultimately remained silent.

Her silent demeanor was taken by Ye Fan as an admission of his own thoughts.

Seeing this, Ye Fan felt much more at ease, and a faint smile appeared on his face. He then turned to his two senior sisters beside him and asked without any hesitation, "Senior sisters, in your opinion, what is the most important thing in our sect?"

Without even thinking, Feng Jiuge answered almost subconsciously, "Is there any need to ask? Of course, it's the sect's most powerful cultivation technique and its most precious treasure!"

Upon hearing this answer, Ye Fan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a hint of cunning.

He nodded slowly, indicating his agreement with Feng Jiuge's words, and then continued, "The sect's most treasured cultivation technique has always been carefully kept by Master, so it shouldn't be lost. However, this sect's most precious treasure..."

At this point, Ye Fan deliberately dragged out his words, successfully attracting the attention of Yun Ruoxi and Feng Jiuge.

Yun Ruoxi, who had been silent, suddenly widened her beautiful eyes and stared at Ye Fan in astonishment, stammering, "Junior Brother... do you mean to steal the sect's most precious treasure and then frame Fifth Brother?"

Ye Fan gave a helpless, bitter smile: "The situation is urgent, and this is the only method I can think of for the time being. Senior sisters, do you have any better ideas than this?"

Yun Ruoxi frowned, pondered for a moment, and then slowly said, "Junior Brother, this is too risky. If we are discovered, all three of us will be expelled from the sect, and we will also offend Fifth Junior Brother."

Feng Jiuge nodded in agreement.

Ye Fan, however, said with a firm expression: "Senior sisters, our fifth senior brother is now controlled by his inner demons. If we allow him to leave the sect, the consequences will be unimaginable. This is the only way to stop him from leaving the sect at present."

Yun Ruoxi bit her lip: "But how can we obtain the sect's most precious treasure without being discovered? The treasure vault is surrounded by numerous restrictions and guards."

A glint of light flashed in Ye Fan's eyes: "Senior sisters, have you forgotten that the restrictions of the ancestral hall are practically useless to the sect leaders and holy sons of past generations?"

After saying that, he pulled out a token from his pocket as if by magic, which emitted a faint light. "Moreover, the person who holds the Holy Son's Token can move freely within the restricted area!"

Yun Ruoxi gave Ye Fan a deep look: "Junior Brother, since you've made up your mind, I'll gamble with you, but we must be careful."

Feng Jiuge clenched her fist: "Junior Brother, don't worry, I will do my best to cooperate with you if you need anything."

Ye Fan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile, like the warm sun in spring. "Third Senior Sister, how about I leave this matter to you?"

Feng Jiuge gritted her teeth and nodded slightly, "Alright!"

Her voice was clear and resonant, like a nightingale singing in a valley.

After speaking, she accepted the Holy Son's Decree as gracefully as a swallow, then turned and left the Floating Cloud Palace like a swift wind.

Yun Ruoxi's beautiful eyes sparkled, clear and captivating like autumn water. She asked softly, "Junior Brother, did you leave me behind alone because you have something for me to do?"

Ye Fan gently shook his head, his gaze as deep as the starry sky, captivating all who beheld it. "Fourth Senior Sister, stealing treasures alone is far from enough."

"Then what other plans do you have, junior brother?" Yun Ruoxi asked, blinking her big eyes like a curious cat.

Ye Fan stood with his hands behind his back, as steady as a mountain, and slowly said, "Fourth Senior Sister, we still need to be as cunning as rabbits and make two preparations!"

A look of worry, like a dark cloud, instantly appeared on Yun Ruoxi's face. She muttered to herself, "Prepare for both possibilities? How easy is that?"

Ye Fan's eyes shone with confidence, as bright as stars: "Fourth Senior Sister, don't panic, I have already come up with a plan."

"Tell me, if Fifth Senior Brother were to attempt to forcibly taint your purity, wouldn't that be a serious crime?"

Now that things had come to this point, Yun Ruoxi understood Ye Fan's plan perfectly well. However, she still hesitated, "This plan is ingenious, but if we are not careful, we will expose ourselves."

Ye Fan gently comforted her, "Fourth Senior Sister, fortune favors the bold. In order to prevent Fifth Senior Brother from leaving the sect, we must take the risk. Moreover, I already have a comprehensive plan. As long as you do as I say, nothing will happen."

Yun Ruoxi took a deep breath, as if she had made up her mind: "Okay, junior brother, senior sister believes in you!"

Ye Fan gently grasped Yun Ruoxi's hand, his eyes resolute: "Fourth Senior Sister, we can definitely succeed."

Yun Ruoxi parted her lips slightly and said softly, "Okay, then I'll go back and prepare."

After saying this, she turned and floated away like a light butterfly, leaving the Floating Cloud Palace.

A sly smile crept across Ye Fan's lips as he thought to himself, "Qin Yichen, Qin Yichen, let's see how you escape my inescapable net now!"

Before he finished speaking, he flashed out of the Floating Cloud Palace like a ghost, closely following behind Feng Jiuge.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Feng Jiuge successfully stole the Heaven-Turning Seal, the most precious treasure of the Jade Purity Sect, and then left the place unharmed.

Ye Fan, who had been secretly observing, seized the opportunity and suddenly appeared.

He grabbed the necks of the two guards with his hands, which were like iron clamps.

In an instant, an intensely dense, suffocating black aura surged from Ye Fan's body, quickly enveloping the two guards.

In just a short while, the two guards seemed to have been drained of their life force, their bodies shriveling up at a visible speed, eventually turning into two lifeless, desiccated corpses, looking extremely terrifying and horrifying.
