Three years ago, a group of mysterious people annihilated the Ye family. He survived by luck but was thrown into prison, where by chance, he became the disciple of five masters...
Three years...
Fenglai Restaurant, a refined establishment shrouded in mist and clouds.
The large round table in the center of the private room was filled with food, mostly seafood.
The golden lobster in the center of the table was especially impressive.
This meal would probably cost at least a thousand spirit stones.
However, Huang Minghai, who was sitting at the dinner table, seemed uneasy, with a hesitant expression on his face, as if he was worried about something.
Just then, footsteps sounded outside.
Huang Minghai quickly stood up.
"Father, Mr. Ye and the others have arrived." Huang Yue entered the private room and said to Huang Minghai with a smile.
Huang Minghai immediately bowed to Ye Feng, Jiang Lingxuan, and Sun Muqing, and put on a flattering smile.
“Mr. Ye, it’s been more than half a month since we last met at the port,” Huang Minghai said with a smile.
Night Breeze said calmly, "You must be mistaken. A few days ago, when Qian Bingfeng brought several disciples of the Medicine King Sect to test me, weren't you and your daughter there too? It was in this restaurant, in this private room. How come your memory has become so bad, Patriarch Huang?"
Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, Huang Minghai's face showed a hint of embarrassment.
That day, Qian Bingfeng led a group to test Ye Feng, and he and Huang Ling'er were indeed present.
It was only because they wanted to obtain elixirs from the Medicine King Sect at the time, and Ye Feng had a deep-seated hatred for the Medicine King Sect, that they dared not greet Ye Feng, let alone have a close conversation with him.
Now that Ye Feng has brought up this matter, Huang Minghai is naturally extremely embarrassed.
"It was my fault at the time. I didn't greet Mr. Ye. I... I'll punish myself with three drinks!" Huang Minghai said, pouring himself a drink and downing three cups in one go.
"I was just saying it casually, Patriarch Huang, you don't need to take it to heart," Ye Feng said calmly.
"Let's sit down first. Patriarch Huang and Miss Huang have prepared such a sumptuous meal. Let's eat quickly and not let their kindness go to waste," Jiang Lingxuan said with a giggle, pulling Ye Feng to sit down in a chair.
Sun Muqing also smiled and said, "Lingxuan is right. Let's sit down and talk while we eat."
With Jiang Lingxuan and Sun Muqing smoothing things over, the atmosphere in the private room finally became harmonious.
At the same time, the Wind Spirit Sect.
Qiu Miaozhen stood atop a mountain peak, a slight smile on her face.
Suddenly, a golden light came from afar and flew to Qiu Miaozhen's front.
Qiu Miaozhen raised her hand and caught the golden light in her hand. After examining it, her smile deepened.
"Junior Sister Qiu, has your master contacted you?" Li Fengyue asked as she walked over.
“Yes, it’s time for me to return to the mountain gate,” Qiu Miaozhen nodded.
Li Fengyue's face showed regret: "Then when can we...?"
Qiu Miaozhen interrupted Li Fengyue and said with a smile, "We will have a chance to meet again, Senior Brother Li, don't worry... It's a pity that you are the head disciple of the Fengling Sect, otherwise you could leave Linghuang Island with me."
Li Fengyue's face showed a deep sense of helplessness, and she sighed.
Qiu Miaozhen added, "Let's go find Mr. Ye now. He's someone I recommended to my master, so we absolutely can't let anything happen to him."
“We really need to be careful. The martial arts competition has ended, but the Medicine King Sect failed to kill Mr. Ye during the competition. Given the Medicine King Sect’s arrogant and domineering nature, they will most likely seek another opportunity to make a move!” Li Fengyue’s expression turned serious.
Then Qiu Miaozhen and Li Fengyue took flight and flew away in a certain direction.
Outside the Fenglai Restaurant, several figures stood in the shadows, gazing in the direction of the restaurant.
The leader was none other than Chang Qiuling, the disciple of the Medicine King Sect's head!
"Senior brother, shall we go now?" a disciple of the Medicine King Sect asked.
Chang Qiuling shook his head and said, "No rush. Ye Feng and the others have just entered Fenglai Restaurant. According to the plan, Huang Minghai and Huang Yue cannot complete the mission so quickly. Let's wait a little longer."
"That damned Ye Feng actually killed several disciples of our Medicine King Sect! He's utterly despicable!"
"Senior Brother Chang, you absolutely mustn't go easy on him later!"
"Not only Ye Feng, but his two female relatives must also be killed!"
"Yes, kill them all and avenge Brother Qian!"
These disciples of the Medicine King Sect spoke one after another, each one gritting their teeth, like wild beasts lurking in the darkness.
Chang Qiuling also narrowed his eyes slightly, releasing wisps of killing intent from his body.
Inside the elegant Yanyun room of Fenglai Restaurant, Huang Minghai, Huang Yue, and Ye Feng chatted and laughed, enjoying their drinks.
However, if you look closely, you'll notice that Huang Minghai and Huang Yue occasionally show a hint of hesitation on their faces.
"Father, do we really have to do this?" Huang Yue asked telepathically.
Huang Minghai also transmitted his thoughts, saying, "We were forced into this situation. The sect leader of the Medicine King Sect personally gave the order; what could we do?"
"But……"
“Moon, we have to be a little selfish and think about ourselves. As the saying goes, ‘If a man doesn’t look out for himself, he’ll be doomed.’ Otherwise, how could we leave Linghuang Island alive? Bai Taixing, the leader of the Medicine King Sect, is a master of the Divine Travel Realm. We are definitely no match for him.” Huang Minghai smiled bitterly.
Huang Minghai and Huang Yue communicated through telepathy. Although Jiang Lingxuan and Sun Muqing did not notice, Ye Feng did.
Moreover, Ye Feng not only noticed their conversation, but he also knew exactly what they said through telepathic communication!
Because Ye Feng's cultivation level far surpasses that of Huang Minghai and Huang Yue, their telepathic communication is completely unguarded in Ye Feng's eyes!
Then Ye Feng smiled and a look of understanding appeared on his face.
Before we knew it, half an hour had passed, and we had almost finished eating.
Sun Muqing wondered if she should get up and say goodbye at this moment.
Suddenly, Huang Minghai laughed and said, "Mr. Ye, you saved our lives on Luo Sitong's ship, and now you want to refine elixirs for my daughter to cure her illness. I have no way to repay such a great kindness."
"Fortunately, I have a jar of fine wine in my possession. Now I offer this fine wine to the hero, Mr. Ye, please enjoy it."
As soon as Huang Minghai finished speaking, he took out a bottle of wine from his storage ring.
This bottle of wine is clearly extraordinary, as the bottle is made of gold and is engraved with very intricate patterns, with several colorful gemstones inlaid in it.
Putting aside whether the wine is good or not, the bottle alone could fetch an astronomical price.
"What kind of wine is this?" Jiang Lingxuan asked curiously.
"This is our most famous Six-Star Golden Wine from Liuli Island. The brewing process alone involves more than 300 steps, making it extremely complex. Our Liuli Island distillery can only produce three bottles of this wine each year, and we never sell them."
