"You should be content, don't you understand! We've already received tremendous benefits from following Young Master Gong, how can we be greedy?" Wang Zongde said emphatically.

The others nodded in agreement, and Wang Dachun dared not utter another word.

After Ye Feng gave the storage ring to Wang Zongde and the others, they immediately bound it to him with their blood.

They then stored all the mined ore in their storage rings and went to other places to mine.

Ye Feng then used the Taiyin Mystic Pearl to set up an array here.

Setting up the spirit-gathering array was a piece of cake for Ye Feng; he completed it with ease.

The core of this spirit-gathering array is the Taiyin Mystic Pearl.

Strands of spiritual energy were continuously drawn from the spiritual veins by the Spirit Gathering Array, but these spiritual artifacts, the Taiyin Profound Pearls, did not absorb them.

As soon as the Yin energy surged from the spiritual vein, the Taiyin Pearl trembled slightly, continuously drawing out and collecting wisps of Yin energy from the spiritual vein.

The color of the Taiyin Mystic Pearl deepened continuously, indicating that it was absorbing more and more Yin energy.

Ye Feng estimated that it would take about three days to collect all the Yin energy from this place.

Once the Yin energy is completely absorbed, this spiritual vein will likely be affected.

In this way, this spiritual vein will be unusable in the future.

However, Ye Feng wasn't bothered at all. This level of spiritual vein had no effect on him, so he naturally didn't care.

Ye Feng did not stay here to guard the place; after setting up a defensive formation, he left directly.

The day passed quickly.

Wang Zongde, Wang Dachun, and others were still mining ore in the vein, while Ye Feng was cultivating in his residence.

Bai Yue is also cultivating; this guy is finally much more diligent than before.

As a member of the dragon race, Bai Yue has an extremely high potential. Reaching the ninth or tenth rank is no problem for her, and she even has the potential to break through the tenth rank bottleneck and become a Void Returner.

However, this requires continuous effort and luck.

Whether Bai Yue will be able to reach that point in the future remains to be seen.

Just then, Wang Dachun ran over.

Wang Dachun looked extremely flustered. He rushed to Ye Feng and said, "Young Master Gong, something terrible has happened! Someone is challenging my father!"

"Who's so bold as to cause trouble?" Ye Feng frowned.

"He is a branch leader of the Xinyoutang Temple!"

Wang Dachun said quickly.

Upon hearing the name Xinyoutang, Ye Feng's face lit up with a look of understanding.

Ye Feng had spent several days on Shijue Island and had gotten to know the place quite well. He had also heard about the various gangs in Crane King City.

The most famous gangs in Crane King City are Zhongshan Hall, Xinyou Hall, and Qinglong Hall.

Among them, Zhongshantang has the most members, and its motto is loyalty, kindness, benevolence, and righteousness, so it has the best reputation.

Xinyoutang was a group of merchants, so it was the richest.

The Azure Dragon Gang has the worst reputation, and is no different from any other criminal gang.

"Does your father have a grudge against Xinyoutang? Did he offend the people of Xinyoutang?" Ye Feng asked.

“No, my father has never dealt with the Xinyoutang people before, and neither have we. I don’t know why the Xinyoutang people are causing us trouble, especially since it’s a branch leader who came,” Wang Dachun said with a bitter face.

"What realm is that incense master at?" Ye Feng asked again.

“It’s the mid-stage of the True Essence Realm, that’s what my father said,” Wang Dachun replied.

"Okay, let's go take a look."

The night wind rose from the ground and followed Wang Dachun toward the mine.

Wang Zongde is now a martial artist at the True Yuan Realm. Even if he is no match for the leader of Xinyou Hall, he will not be defeated for a while.

So the night breeze wasn't in a hurry.

Wang Dachun was extremely anxious, but this was just his worry clouding his judgment.

Before long, Ye Feng and Wang Dachun arrived at the underground mine.

A large crowd had gathered in the mine, watching the fight between the leader of Xinyoutang and Wang Zongde.

The incense master of Xinyou Hall was a middle-aged man dressed in a blue long robe with a small mustache. He stood motionless, a flying sword circling around him, occasionally thrusting out a very sharp sword at Wang Zongde.

Wang Zongde had no suitable magical weapon, so he could only use martial arts to block or attack.

However, this would result in a significant energy consumption.

Moreover, Wang Zongde's cultivation level was originally inferior to that of the incense master of Xinyou Hall, so his current situation is very bad.

However, the leader of Xinyoutang did not kill Wang Zongde. Ye Feng could tell that he did not use his full strength and there was no murderous aura about him.

"Wang Zongde, step back," Ye Feng said.

Wang Zongde immediately retreated and stood in front of Ye Feng.

"Young Master Gong, I am no match for this man," Wang Zongde said, a look of shame on his face.

“Your cultivation level is not as high as his, and you don’t have a suitable spiritual weapon. In that case, you are naturally no match for him,” Ye Feng said calmly, without blaming Wang Zongde.

Even so, Wang Zongde still looked ashamed and didn't know what expression to wear when facing Ye Feng.

The leader of Xinyoutang laughed and asked, "Are you Gong Mingfei?"

“Exactly,” Night Wind nodded.

“This person is no match for me, but you should be my match, right? Why don’t you come and spar with me?” asked the head of Xinyou Hall.

"Who are you?" Night Wind asked.

"Lu Hanjian, the head of the four incense masters of Xinyou Hall," Lu Hanjian said with his head held high and a confident look on his face.

"Do you know what level I'm at?" Ye Feng asked with a smile.

“If I’m not mistaken, you should be at the early stage of the Divine Travel Realm,” Lu Hanjian said.

"You're only at the mid-stage of the True Essence Realm, how dare you challenge me, who's only at the early stage of the Divine Travel Realm?" Ye Feng asked again.

“I naturally have my own trump cards,” Lu Hanjian said.

It seems that Lu Hanjian has a secret.

Ye Feng smiled and shook his head, saying, "I have no interest in fighting you. Wang Zongde only broke through to the True Yuan Realm two days ago, but you have fought him for so long and still failed to defeat him. With your strength, I have no interest in fighting you."

Lu Hanjian immediately revealed a look of anger.

"Gong Mingfei, are you blind? I never intended to kill him, so I wasn't serious at all. Otherwise, do you think he could have held out until you arrived? If I really wanted to kill him, I could have decapitated him within ten moves!" Lu Hanjian said angrily.

"What if you can't kill him within ten moves?" Ye Feng countered.

"If I can't kill him, I'll commit suicide on the spot!" Lu Hanjian said heavily.

"Don't speak too confidently, or you won't have a chance to back out," Ye Feng said with a smile.

"Hmph, I mean what I say!"

Lu Hanjian said without any politeness.

“Alright, you said it. You’ll fight Wang Zongde later. If you can’t kill him within ten moves, then you can commit suicide on the spot,” Ye Feng said.
