Yuanshi Town, Kou Family
Today is the 100th birthday of the Kou family patriarch. The antique courtyard is bustling with people, all of whom are local merchants and wealthy families.
As a vassal state of the immortal sect, the powerful figures in wealthy families are all cultivators.
Originally, the Kou family was only considered middle-class in Yuanshi Town, but just six months ago,
The Kou family suddenly rose to become a prominent local family...
"Zhang He, the patriarch of Changfeng Escort Agency, has arrived!"
"Ancestor Zhang He presents a pair of top-grade Blood Spirit Jade Ruyi!"
Whenever a local tycoon entered, his retainers would sing loudly, while whispers could be heard from inside.
"The Blood Spirit Jade Ruyi? Could this be the treasured artifact of the Changfeng Escort Agency?"
"It should be... The Kou family had already announced their intention to buy it, but unexpectedly..."
"Passing cultivator... Chen Dong, one low-grade pill."
The retainer sniffed the unremarkable pill before him, his disdain undisguised.
"You'll have to sit outside with this gift. Go find a seat yourself!"
Even the escort was no longer needed.
Ye Feng smiled and nodded, then walked in on his own.
As he walked, he looked around.
He never expected the Kou family to be so prominent in Yuanshi Town; this was far more impressive than the Ye family in his memory.
Of course, Ye Wenyuan was only at the fifth level of Qi Refining, so he couldn't compare to families with members at the ninth level of Qi Refining.
Seeing that his friend's family was doing well, Ye Feng was genuinely happy for her.
There were once some budding feelings between them, but as time passed and so many things happened,
Now, Ye Feng regards Kou Ying more as an old friend.
The death of Cheng Tianyang, in particular, made Ye Feng reflect on the impermanence of life.
If possible, he hopes that all his former friends are doing well.
But if everyone were like Yang Fan and said they weren't jealous, that would be a lie.
Brother, don't live a hard life, but it's best not to drive a Land Rover either...
"Where does this young fellow Daoist come from?"
Ye Feng's table was full of middle-aged cultivators at the fifth level of Qi Refining, who were on par with him, who wore low-grade magic robes and were at the third level of Qi Refining.
"I'm from Liuyun Town."
"Liuyun Town! Huashan City? That's the hometown of Ye Zhenchuan. Could it be that you and Ye Feng Zhenchuan are from the same hometown?"
"Yes! We're from the same hometown, but we're not very familiar with each other!"
Ye Feng smiled shyly.
The true teachings? Is this really me?
I never imagined my reputation had spread this far!
It seems the sect has a good eye for quality.
Ye Feng himself had no idea that the sect had practically turned the entire Qing Kingdom upside down in their search for him.
Before leaving, he used the Azure Lotus Sword Song at the sect, intending to show off his talent in a small way so that he wouldn't improve too much in the future and arouse suspicion from the sect.
But later, after meeting Yang Dan and others, he created the Five Elements Technique, which can be considered as forming his own school.
Later, he traveled from the secret realm to Penglai Island and advanced to the Nascent Soul stage...
Now, he no longer needs to worry about anything!
Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, the other person immediately responded with disdain.
"If we were close, would we need to attend a banquet and be mindful of the Kou family's feelings?"
"Well...aren't people just here to join in the fun at banquets?"
Ye Feng asked, somewhat puzzled.
"Joining the fun? Humph! There's been five instances of fun in the last six months!"
The man wanted to say more, but his companion tugged at his sleeve.
Seeing that Ye Feng's face showed no change, he then spoke in a low voice.
"Do you want to die? Have you forgotten how the Sun family came to be?"
The three remained tight-lipped about it, but it piqued Ye Feng's curiosity.
"Could it be that the Sun family has been suppressed by the Kou family?"
"Hmph, suppression?"
All three showed resentment on their faces, but hesitated to speak.
In the end, it was the person next to Ye Feng who couldn't hold back anymore.
"They weren't suppressed by the Kou family... but their entire family was wiped out by the Sanhe Bandits!"
Three-way thief!
The whole family!
The Three Bandits were the ones Ye Feng had Chen Ying and the others deal with last night.
I never expected these people to be so arrogant, daring to do such a destructive thing under the jurisdiction of the Qingyun Sect.
Then why has the sect kept the person alive until now?
But Ye Feng was no longer calm when he turned around.
The three of them started talking and couldn't stop.
"It's all because Miss Kou has the ability to get into Ye Zhen's lineage!"
"Yes, even after leaving the sect for so long, a Golden Core cultivator still personally came to visit him..."
"Last time, the town lord wanted to get rid of these bandits, but was directly stopped by Miss Kou. Even the town lord, who was only at the Foundation Establishment stage, did not dare to disobey..."
this……
When did the clam get on it? How come I didn't know?
A Golden Core cultivator has come to our door!
But regardless of whether the people were talking about him or not, the story of the Three Harmonies Thieves cannot be faked.
Chen Ying had mentioned earlier that the three men said they had powerful backers before they died...
Could it be that this powerful backer is actually myself?
Ye Feng had previously planned to meet Kou Ying outside, to give her a surprise, but now…
"I heard that... Ye Zhenchuan... has actually met with misfortune."
"Is that so?"
"Rumors... but in my opinion, it's probably true."
"Let's wait and see if the town lord will come!"
As the three were talking, they suddenly realized that the young man sitting next to them had disappeared.
The group of people broke out in a cold sweat when they realized what they had just said. They took a sip of tea, exchanged glances, and then got up and left.
The Kou family's secret chamber
The Kou family patriarch, who had already advanced to the tenth level of Qi Refining, sat somewhat timidly next to a woman at the seventh level of Qi Refining.
"Ying'er, Lao Liu was just saying that in anger. You should let him go! We've been together for so many years..."
"Bang!"
Kou Ying slammed his hand on the table, startling even the centenarian Kou family patriarch.
"Are you kidding me? Do you think others would think the same way? Now everyone knows I'm Ye Zhenchuan's woman, yet he says I'm a good match for his grandson... If Senior Brother Ye finds out, do you think he'll still be interested in me? Will our status in Yuanshi Town still be so prestigious?"
"Elder Liao just said that... that we should report to them when we see Ye Feng, he didn't say that you were..."
"Bang!"
Before he could finish speaking, Kou Ying slammed his hand on the table again. This time, the table finally gave way and crashed to the floor.
"I wondered how he dared to say that, turns out you let it slip! You're getting more and more senile as you get older!"
Kou Ying slammed her fist on the table, still not satisfied, and then picked up a few vases and threw them out.
"How did the family achieve its current status? I've worked so hard for the family, and you're revealing my secrets to outsiders! You...you senile old fool! You..."
After her outburst, Kou Ying regained her composure. The fearsome Miss Kou was back once again.
"After the banquet, you must contact Boss He immediately. The Liu family must disappear right now!"
Old Master Kou looked bitter and wanted to offer some words of advice, but suddenly found himself unable to move.
"well....!"
A sigh, both young and tinged with a sense of weariness, rang out.
"Junior Sister Kou, it's been a long time!"
Kou Ying's cold face suddenly froze as she turned to look at Ye Feng, who had suddenly appeared.
"Senior Brother Ye! You...I..."
Kou Ying knew very well what kind of person Ye Feng was.
But she never imagined that her other side would be revealed to Ye Feng like this.
"The Three Bandits were my training mission, and I have already wiped them out..."
Ye Feng wore a smile, but Kou Ying was already terrified.
"Junior Sister Kou, you don't mind, do you?"
"My...senior brother..."
Kou Ying's face turned deathly pale, and her legs went weak, causing her to kneel down.
But how could they possibly kneel before Ye Feng?
Kou Ying felt as if there was an invisible wall surrounding her on all four sides, completely enveloping her.
Unable to kneel, and unable to move...
"This is a gift for you, I hope you like it!"
Ye Feng reached out and the gift boxes piled in the corner outside were in his hands.
The gift box contains a top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill.
However, Ye Feng used a method to conceal the external leakage of spiritual energy.
Now that we've met the real person, there's no need to worry about others coveting it anymore.
The aura emanating from the top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill made the eyes of the Kou family patriarch shine and his throat swallow... but apart from his eyeballs, he couldn't even utter a word.
"Senior brother, I can explain!"
Although Kou Ying was filled with bitterness when she came to her senses, she regained her composure the moment she saw the Foundation Establishment Pill.
Ye Feng simply raised his hand, stopping her from saying anything more.
"It's okay, no need to explain, you did a great job!"
Ye Feng's words were tinged with regret.
He would stop at nothing for the sake of his family... Outsiders can't criticize him, but since he's using Ye Feng's name, he has no choice but to speak out.
With that, Ye Feng walked outside.
"However, our fate has run its course. In the future... Junior Sister Kou, please take care of yourself!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Feng's figure had completely disappeared.
Only Kou Ying, slumped to the ground, and the Kou family patriarch, his eyes fixed on the Foundation Establishment Pill, remained standing there...
"Why are you back so early?"
Xiao Xuan's face held a mocking expression.
"I thought I wouldn't be able to see you until at least tomorrow morning."
"cough..."
Ye Feng touched his nose, looking somewhat embarrassed, and said...
"How could that be? I'm such an upright person... I just wanted to see my junior sister..."
Although Xiao Xuan teased him, she was secretly delighted to see Ye Feng return early, and immediately went up to hug him...
———
Not long after Ye Feng left, a message was sent from the Kou family.
Inside the Qingyun Sect, True Monarch Dafang burst into laughter.
"Hahaha...Good! Excellent!"
From Yunxia Mountain, a figure in green robes soared into the sky, heading towards the Qingyun Sect.
"You little brat, I'll teach you a lesson!"
