This person is none other than Tang Sihai, the sect leader of the Tianyang Sect!

As Tang Sihai appeared, the First Elder Li Hengfeng, the Third Elder Wang Tianlan, and the Sect Master's disciple Yu Yanxin bowed in greeting.

All the Tianyang Sect disciples on the ground knelt down and respectfully kowtowed to him.

But two people did not kneel.

These two people were none other than Ye Feng and Hong Lingyue.

Hong Lingyue is a member of the Di Yang Sect, not a disciple of the Tian Yang Sect, so she naturally does not need to kneel.

But it would be unreasonable for Ye Feng not to kneel, since he is now a member of the Tianyang Sect.

Even so, Ye Feng still stood straight and looked up at Tang Sihai in the air, which was undoubtedly very rude of him.

However, Tang Sihai didn't seem to mind, and was looking at him with a smile.

"This is the first time I've ever seen an outer disciple dare to talk back to a sect elder like this," Tang Sihai said with a smile.

"Because Elder Wang is mean and unrighteous, obeying her will only lead to a quicker death," Ye Feng said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, Wang Tianlan, who was in the air, turned ashen with anger.

Tang Sihai nodded with an appreciative look and said, "That makes sense. Elder Wang, being a woman, is indeed a bit petty."

"metropolitan!"

Wang Tianlan said angrily.

Tang Sihai waved his hand and said, "Feng Ye's request is not unreasonable. If he can't even guarantee his own life, why should he care about the lives of others? In that case, let your disciple swear an oath to his inner demon in front of us."

Since Tang Sihai, the sect leader of Tianyang Sect, had said so, Wang Tianlan naturally nodded in agreement.

Li Yangwei, on the ground, glared hatefully at Ye Feng before finally raising his right hand and shouting, "I swear by my inner demons that I will never lay a hand on Feng Ye in this lifetime!"

As Li Yangwei made this solemn oath, a feeling of unease suddenly arose in his heart.

This shows that his oath to his inner demons has taken effect.

If he were to attack Ye Feng in the future, his inner demons would affect his character, preventing him from making any further breakthroughs in his life. He might even suffer a qi deviation during cultivation.

Wang Tianlan snorted and said, "Feng Ye, my disciple has already sworn a great oath against his inner demons, so now you should detoxify him, right?"

“That’s not enough,” Night Wind shook his head.

"Not enough? What do you want?!" Wang Tianlan shouted angrily.

Ye Feng said calmly, "Li Yangwei's oath to his inner demons was merely to fulfill my request, but what about Fairy Yunxiao, the Holy Maiden of the Di Yang Sect? He made outrageous remarks in front of so many people, revealing his improper thoughts towards Fairy Yunxiao. Isn't Li Yangwei's actions just creating discord between our Tian Yang Sect and the Di Yang Sect?"

"If this matter gets out, what will outsiders think of our Tianyang Sect? Will they think that all the people of our Tianyang Sect are bullies who prey on men and women?"

"Now, let Li Yangwei apologize to Fairy Yunxiao."

After Ye Feng finished speaking, he looked at Li Yangwei.

Li Yangwei felt like he wanted to devour Ye Feng whole.

However, he dared not do anything that would harm Ye Feng, partly because the sect leader was watching from above, and partly because he had just sworn an oath to his inner demons.

Tang Sihai, in the air, nodded and said, "Li Yangwei's words were indeed inappropriate in their disrespectful remarks towards the Holy Maiden of the Di Yang Sect. The sect leader of the Di Yang Sect has already fallen, and the sect is in dire straits. At this critical moment, if word gets out that someone from our Tian Yang Sect is bullying the Holy Maiden of the Di Yang Sect, it will be extremely detrimental to the reputation of our sect."

"Feng Ye is right, Li Yangwei does indeed need to apologize to Fairy Yunxiao."

After Tang Sihai finished speaking, he looked at Li Yangwei.

Li Yangwei felt immense pressure and his body felt extremely heavy as he was being watched by Tang Sihai, a Void Returning Realm Immortal.

He dared not hesitate any longer and quickly bowed to Hong Lingyue.

“Junior Sister Hong, I was wrong just now and spoke rudely. I apologize to you now and hope you will forgive me this time.” Li Yangwei said slowly.

Hong Lingyue laughed and said, "The Sect Master of Tianyang Sect is watching from up there, how could I not give him face? Let's just let today's matter go, but I hope that such things will not happen again in the future."

Li Yangwei breathed a sigh of relief, while Wang Tianlan in the air looked extremely pale.

Li Yangwei has really lost face today.

Li Yangwei was her apprentice, so she naturally lost face as well!

"Feng Ye, can we detoxify now?" Li Hengfeng said.

"nature."

Ye Feng smiled and nodded, took out a spirit pill from his storage ring, and strode up to Li Yangwei.

"Just take this elixir," Ye Feng said.

Li Yangwei snatched the elixir from Ye Feng's hand and popped it into his mouth.

As the elixir entered his stomach, Li Yangwei immediately felt a chill, and the red thread on his wrist melted away without a trace.

Li Yangwei carefully examined himself again, and only after confirming that there were no more problems with his body did he finally nod.

"Sect Master, please excuse me."

Wang Tianlan bowed, then with a wave of her sleeve, she swept Li Yangwei away and disappeared.

The other disciples around also dispersed.

Tang Sihai did not leave immediately. He smiled and said to Li Hengfeng, "Elder Li, you have taken on a good disciple."

"Haha, Sect Master, you flatter me."

Li Hengfeng burst into laughter, his face full of pride.

After Tang Sihai and his land deity Yu Yanxin left, Li Hengfeng said to Ye Feng and Hong Lingyue, "You two come to my cave later."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Hengfeng transformed into a streak of light and headed towards the cultivation cave.

After glancing at Li Hengfeng's departing figure, Ye Feng sighed and a bitter smile appeared on his face.

He truly never expected that Li Hengfeng would accept him as a disciple.

Now that he had a powerful backer, he became even more reckless and unrestrained in his actions within the Tianyang Sect.

However, becoming Li Hengfeng's apprentice might also bring some unexpected trouble.

Forget it, there's no use thinking about it now. Let's just take it one step at a time.

Hong Lingyue had already thought of this, so she said to Ye Feng with a slight apology, "Senior Brother Feng, it's my fault for causing you trouble."

"It's not your fault," Ye Feng shook his head.

"How could it not be my fault? If it weren't for me, this wouldn't have happened today," Hong Lingyue said helplessly.

Ye Feng laughed and said, "You are also a victim, how could it be your fault? The one who is wrong is Li Yangwei, not you."

Seeing that Hong Lingyue was about to say something, Ye Feng spoke up first: "Elder Li is still waiting for us, we'd better hurry over to see him."

Hong Lingyue nodded, and with the night wind, she rose into the air and flew towards Li Hengfeng's cultivation cave.

In just a short while, Ye Feng and Hong Lingyue arrived at Li Hengfeng's cultivation cave.
