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...
"How long will it take for your Burning Heaven Sect elders to arrive?" Ye Feng asked.
Sun Muqing and Jiang Lingxuan were still waiting for him. If it took too long, Ye Feng would not be able to grant Zhu Yuanji's request.
Zhu Yuanji immediately replied, "I'll be there within half an hour!"
Half an hour?
It's pretty fast.
Night Wind nodded and said, "Alright, I'll protect you here for half an hour!"
Zhu Yuanji nodded, took out a communication talisman from his storage ring, and sent it out.
The communication talisman flew upwards through the dark holes and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Seeing this, Ye Feng revealed a thoughtful expression.
Communication talismans cannot cross the barriers of forbidden areas, but the forbidden area of the Burial Grounds seems to be slightly different from other forbidden areas. It has been connected to the outside world for a long time, so communication talismans can enter and exit freely without hindrance.
I should also refine a few communication talismans for Sun Muqing and Jiang Lingxuan.
After all, there is no cell phone signal in this Tianyuan world, so even if Sun Muqing and Jiang Lingxuan wanted to call him to pass on a message, they couldn't.
While message tokens aren't as convenient as making a phone call, they're still usable.
Moreover, the crafting of communication talismans is not complicated, and the required materials are not particularly precious. Ye Feng already has the materials to craft communication talismans.
As Ye Feng was lost in thought, a cluster of bloodthirsty spirit thorns suddenly emerged from the ground and headed straight for him!
Ye Feng frowned and slapped the Bloodthirsty Thorns into pieces. Even after shattering the Bloodthirsty Thorns, the lightning wrapped around Ye Feng's hand did not dissipate.
"Weren't all the Bloodthirsty Thorns just cleared out?" Night Wind muttered to himself.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yuanji smiled wryly and said, "Mr. Ye, you are unaware that the Bloodthirsty Spirit Thorns have an extremely strong reproductive ability. Their seeds are resistant to fire and water, making them very difficult to destroy."
"So, Mr. Ye, although you just cleared away all the Bloodthirsty Thorns in the third forbidden area, the seeds left in the soil can sprout and grow at any time, becoming new Bloodthirsty Thorns."
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng's face showed a hint of understanding.
It seems that the Bloodthirsty Thorns of this third forbidden area cannot be completely eradicated in a short time.
Unless Ye Feng spends a lot of time cleaning up all the soil in the entire third forbidden area.
But there's no need for that.
Night Wind didn't come here to destroy these Bloodthirsty Thorns; as long as they didn't pose a threat to him, that was enough.
Half an hour passed quickly.
During this time, several more bloodthirsty thorns emerged from the ground, attempting to attack Ye Feng and Zhu Yuanji, but they were all defeated by Ye Feng.
The elders of the Burning Heaven Sect finally arrived.
Three figures fell from the dark hole above their heads and landed steadily in front of Zhu Yuanji.
"Young Master, we've finally found you!"
"How did you end up here? You should at least have said hello!"
"Yes, young master, we thought you were traveling and having fun during the ten days you were gone. We never expected you to be trapped here. Luckily you're alright, otherwise we would be in big trouble if your father blamed us!"
The three elders spoke one after another, their faces full of concern.
However, the oldest elder seemed to have a cold glint in his eyes, but he hid it very well, and no one except Ye Feng noticed it.
"Elder, Second Elder, Third Elder, thank you for coming to our rescue," Zhu Yuanji said with a smile.
Then, Zhu Yuanji introduced, "This Mr. Ye Fengye is the savior who saved me from dire straits. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have been able to send you this message."
“Mr. Ye, they are the First Elder, Second Elder and Third Elder of our Burning Heaven Sect, and the First Elder is my father’s brother.”
The night breeze merely nodded slightly, as if to acknowledge the greeting.
The Grand Elder of the Burning Heaven Sect approached with clasped hands and smiled, "Thank you for saving me, Mr. Ye. Mr. Ye, you... wait, your name is Ye Feng?"
“Yes, my name is Night Wind,” Night Wind said.
"Do you have a seventh-tier peak-level dragon beast as your mount?" the elder asked again.
“That’s true.” Night Wind nodded in agreement, seemingly unconcerned.
The elder's expression shifted, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes from time to time.
"What's wrong, Elder?" Zhu Yuanji asked, puzzled.
The elder glanced at Ye Feng a few more times, then laughed and said, "It's nothing, it's nothing. I just mistook you for someone else. This Mr. Ye looks a lot like one of my friends."
"Oh, I see," Zhu Yuanji said with a smile, but didn't think much of it.
"Young Master, let's speak in private."
The Grand Elder grabbed Zhu Yuanji's wrist and pulled him away into the distance.
After avoiding the night wind, the Grand Elder of the Burning Heaven Sect was not satisfied and set up another restriction to isolate the inside from the outside.
This restriction, while lacking defensive capabilities, cannot withstand enemy attacks.
However, it can block out breath, block out sound, and even distort light to a certain extent, making it impossible for people to see the scene inside the barrier from the outside.
But this was useless against the night wind.
Ye Feng's strength was comparable to that of a master in the Divine Travel Realm, while this elder was only at the third level of the True Essence Realm. The restrictions he set up had no effect on Ye Feng.
Therefore, Ye Feng could clearly hear the conversation between the Grand Elder and Zhu Yuanji at this moment!
“Young Master, you have been trapped in the third level of the Burial Ground for too long and have no idea what has happened outside during this time,” the First Elder said.
"What happened? Has something terrible happened in the Tianyuan World?" Zhu Yuanji asked, frowning.
"That's right, something really big has happened! The Nine Heavens Mystic Palace is offering a huge reward for a wanted criminal named Ye Feng. Whoever can capture or kill Ye Feng can go to the Nine Heavens Mystic Palace to claim the reward."
"The reward for the Nine Heavens Profound Technique is not only ten thousand high-grade spirit stones, but also a Nine Heavens Profound Crystal!"
"And the person who saved you is undoubtedly Ye Feng, the wanted criminal with a hefty bounty on his head by the Nine Heavens Mystic Palace!"
After the elder finished speaking, his eyes flashed with a fierce light as he glared menacingly at Ye Feng outside the barrier.
A murderous intent arose in Ye Feng's heart.
He had saved Zhu Yuanji, the young master of the Burning Heaven Sect, but the sect's Grand Elder wanted to kill him and claim the reward from the Nine Heavens Mystic Palace.
I never imagined that the story of the farmer and the snake would actually happen to me!
Zhu Yuanji's face turned pale, and he hurriedly said, "Elder, what do you want to do? Do you want to kill Ye Feng and then go to the Nine Heavens Mystic Palace to claim your reward? Absolutely not! He is my savior, how can we lay a hand on him!"
“Young Master, what good will it do him to save you? The Nine Heavens Mystic Palace has so many bounties, which are extremely important to our Burning Heaven Sect! Moreover, the bounty is secondary. If we can gain the friendship of the Nine Heavens Mystic Palace, it will greatly benefit the future development of our Burning Heaven Sect!” The First Elder said earnestly, but his words were full of seductive meaning.
