Upon hearing this, Ye Wushuang was startled and suddenly realized that she had done something foolish.

However, he didn't want to admit that he had made a foolish mistake, so he stepped forward angrily, clenched his fists, and prepared to teach Lin Xiaofei a lesson.

A young disciple standing nearby glanced over and immediately knew Ye Wushuang was about to make a move. He quickly stepped forward, grabbed Ye Wushuang's arm, and said, "

"Senior Brother Ye, please don't act rashly. Don't forget why we're here."

"I just asked you to explain. If you don't want to say, fine. What? Do you want to hit me?"

"If you want to fight, then I'll play along today. We'll go to the training ground and have a one-on-one duel. Are you in?"

Lin Xiaofei spoke with a cold gaze and icy tone.

He knew in his heart that the other party was very likely sent by the Left Protector to target him. However, he was not stupid. As long as the other party agreed to go to the training ground and fight him, the matter would definitely spread like wildfire within the gang. That would be equivalent to exposing the other party, and the other party would naturally not dare to come up and cause trouble again.

You think I wouldn't dare?

Ye Wushuang said.

However, a disciple beside him pulled Ye Wushuang's arm forcefully and whispered something in her ear. Ye Wushuang snorted coldly and turned to leave.

"Could they have found out I killed someone?"

Watching the two figures disappear into the distance, Lin Xiaofei thought to himself, muttering to himself:

No, they shouldn't know I killed someone, so what are they here for?

Furthermore, what orders did they receive from the Left Protector? Were they sent to deal with me?

After thinking for a while without any clue, Lin Xiaofei turned around and went back to his room.

"By the way, the martial arts competition for inner disciples, which takes place every five years, will start in a few days. I'd better stay in the sect and cultivate diligently, increasing my strength as much as possible, as this will benefit me in the upcoming martial arts competition."

Lin Xiaofei thought to himself and smiled slightly.

Currently, he is probably the strongest among the inner disciples. If a martial arts competition were to take place, no one would be his match, and winning first place would be very easy for him.

The only thing that worried him was what he would do if the Left Protector tampered with his fight.

Over the course of several days, Lin Xiaofei did not go out to cultivate immortal techniques, but stayed in the gang diligently to cultivate.

At the same time, he was thinking about his future.

Qingshan Town is a remote town with scarce resources, and the competition among martial artists for resources is particularly fierce, which makes his opportunities to obtain cultivation resources relatively few.

For example, he wants to do more tasks, but there are relatively few opportunities to do them.

Of course, his purpose in doing the mission was to earn silver so that he could legitimately exchange it for the top-tier martial arts techniques within the guild. Although he had enough silver to exchange for, he dared not take it out, fearing it would cause unnecessary trouble.

"Besides the prize, the first place winner of the martial arts competition is said to have the opportunity to go to the main gang. For me, this is a great thing."

Lin Xiaofei thought to himself.

Once he entered the Qingfeng Gang headquarters, he believed that the headquarters would be much better than the branches, and there would be many tasks to do, which would allow him to earn a lot of silver, which would be equivalent to having cultivation resources.

For several days in a row, he practiced the silver light sword weaving back and forth in the air, and his skill improved a lot. The speed of the silver light sword flying by was even faster.

At the same time, he also practiced Illusionary Eye Technique and Illusionary Fist.

Among them, the Illusionary Eye Technique is indeed a magical spell. After casting the Illusionary Eye Technique, the eyes will become particularly cool and comfortable, and the surrounding movements will be observed more clearly. Moreover, at night, one can see the objects placed in the room without turning on the lights.

"Today, while I was practicing martial arts in the training ground, I was challenged to a fight. I used my Illusionary Eye Technique to take a look at my opponent and was able to see the strength of the aura emanating from his body. This Illusionary Eye Technique is quite extraordinary."

Lin Xiaofei thought to himself and made his own judgment.

For him, the Illusionary Eye Technique allows him to see the aura emanating from the other person, thus roughly estimating their strength. In other words, it's like knowing the other person's strength in advance, which is quite useful.

As for the Phantom Fist, he had been practicing it for several days, but he was still only at the beginner stage, and his progress was somewhat slow.

However, according to the description in the manual, this is a powerful martial art. A martial artist needs to practice it countless times to master the Phantom Fist.

On the morning of the third day, on a street in the east of Qingshan Town, there was a neat group of people, all of whom were members of the Qingfeng Gang.

Many high-ranking members and young inner disciples of the gang followed Sect Leader Chen along a street toward Qingfeng Restaurant.

Of course, Lin Xiaofei also went along. He learned that before each martial arts competition among the inner disciples, Sect Master Chen would treat the members of the Qingfeng Gang branch to a big meal to relax.

Sect Leader Chen Longhai, Left Protector Qian Ming, Right Protector Zhou Huanshan, and all the high-ranking members of the gang followed behind Sect Leader Chen.

Among them, there were also many inner disciples following behind, including Lin Xiaofei and several people he knew.

Qin Hong, Guo Zishan, Zhu San, etc.

As the group was walking towards Qingfeng Restaurant, they saw a line of people in horse-drawn carriages approaching Master Chen from the other end of the East Road.

Then, the sect leader and the others waved their hands, causing the many disciples behind them to stop.

Soon, a middle-aged man with a full head of black hair, a long sword at his waist, and a tall and straight figure stepped out of the carriage. He leaped up like a roc taking flight, soared into the air for a distance, and then landed.

With this leap, he flew more than thirty meters horizontally, landed lightly, and then took off again, his figure light and free, landing directly in front of Sect Master Chen.

"I thought it was someone leading a group of people to Qingshan Town. It turns out to be the Zhang family head. What a pleasure to meet you."

"Master Zhang's leap just now must have covered more than thirty meters. Your agility is truly impressive."

Sect leader Chen Longhai said with a smile.

"Haha, my lightness skill is so-so."

Zhang Shuhu laughed heartily and said, "

"Sect Leader Chen, did you know I was returning to Qingshan Town today, which is why you brought a group of people to welcome me?"

"Haha, my Qingfeng Gang branch is about to hold a martial arts competition, but before that, I plan to let the brothers in the gang relax and have a drink at Qingfeng Restaurant."

Who would have thought that Patriarch Zhang would return to Qingshan Town today? It seems to be fate. Why don't you come with me to Qingfeng Restaurant for a drink? It would be a welcome back to Patriarch Zhang."

Chen Longhai smiled and said.

"Haha, Sect Leader Chen is quite the talker. I've tasted the wine brewed by Qingfeng Restaurant long ago, and it's absolutely delicious. Looks like I'm in for a treat today."

Zhang Shuhu laughed heartily and said with a cheerful expression.

"Haha, since Patriarch Zhang is so kind as to grace us with his presence, then we shall have a good drink, at least twenty jars of wine, how about it?"

Chen Longhai laughed and said.

"Then let's see how much you can drink, Sect Leader Chen!"

As Zhang Shuhu spoke with a smile, he quickly greeted his left and right protectors and other high-ranking members of the gang, exchanging pleasantries with each other.

Then he added:

Before we drink, I have a request. Since your gang is going to hold a martial arts competition, may I bring some Zhang family disciples to watch and appreciate the prowess of the Qingfeng Gang?
