"Ah Fu!! Long time no see!! Haha..."
Yang Fu had just killed someone and severed Zhang Changgui's arm. He thought he was doomed, but was saved by an unknown stranger.
Now I am simply awaiting my final judgment.
Unexpectedly, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind.
Turning my head, I saw Ye Feng standing there with a big smile on his face.
"Young Master! You...your clothes...you've become an outer disciple!!"
Yang Fu almost thought he was dreaming. He had been devastated when Ouyang He told him Ye Feng had fallen to the first level, but now he found Ye Feng standing before him, dressed as an outer disciple...
Completely forgetting his predicament, he trembled as he tried to touch Ye Feng's clothes, only to find his hands covered in blood, and he withdrew them.
"Good...good...Young Master, you've really become a disciple of the sect, this old servant...this old servant..."
Tears of emotion welled up in Yang Fu's eyes, and he choked up, unable to say anything in his heart.
Ye Feng hugged him tightly and patted his back.
"Ah Fu, you've worked hard. From now on, you'll enjoy a life of luxury with me! Smile! Be happy!"
"I'm happy...I'm so happy...."
Yang Fu wiped away his tears while forcing a smile that looked even more like a grimace.
Since his own child died, apart from the day Ye Feng was born and called him grandpa, he has never been happier than he is now.
At that time, Ye Feng had only recently learned to speak and was unaware of his family's relationship. Seeing Yang Fu's aged appearance, he instinctively called him "Grandpa."
From that moment on, he treated the child as his own grandson....
Although Ye Feng later changed his address to Uncle Fu, and then later simply called him A-Fu,
However, Yang Fu's love for Ye Feng, which he felt like that for his own grandson, never changed.
Xu Han was startled as he watched two outer disciples emerge from behind.
You should know that 99% of the people living here are the families of servants.
Unexpectedly, we ran into two outer gate guards here.
However, considering that the sect had just held a grand competition, it became clear that he was probably a menial disciple who had just advanced to the fourth level of Qi Refining.
Since both parties are relatives of outer sect disciples, we need to reason things out again and investigate whose fault it is.
To his surprise, Ye Feng didn't even glance at him when he came out; he was only focused on catching up with the old man.
This immediately made him feel unhappy.
"Outer disciple Kou Ying greets senior brother."
Kou Ying first came over to greet Xu Han. Judging from the purity of the mana released by the fireball spell, it was easy to discern that Xu Han was at the sixth level of Qi Refining.
Kou Ying was very polite, which improved Xu Han's expression. After they exchanged greetings,
He then watched Ye Feng and the other person from the side.
"This is Old Yang's young master, and he's also an outer disciple!"
"Old Yang has finally made it this time. The two seem to have a very good relationship; they don't seem like master and servant at all."
...
Seeing the two catching up intimately, the onlookers cast envious glances at Yang Fu.
However, there were also dissenting voices.
"The outer sect members aren't having an easy time either. Those three are all family members of outer sect members. Three against one, who knows if they'll be able to win in the end..."
"Yes, I heard the competition in the outer sect is fierce. Offending three people at once, this young master won't have an easy time later."
"In the end, they won't abandon Old Yang and make him take the blame, will they?"
These words immediately silenced the room. Even those who had previously expressed envy and jealousy looked at Yang Fu with pity.
"Junior Sister Kou and this...Junior Brother, are they on a mission together?"
You can't call him junior brother...
Even if an inner disciple has a lower cultivation level, they are still a senior brother.
Once you pass the test of conscience, you're considered "one of us" in the sect, with a generational difference compared to outer disciples...
Just as Kou Ying was about to reply, a commotion arose from outside the crowd.
"Village chief! The village chief is here! Make way!"
An elderly man, nearly sixty years old, walked over carrying an iron cane.
The old man first glanced around at the mess on the ground, then turned his gaze to Xu Han, a smile appearing on his face as he cupped his hands in a respectful gesture.
Seeing Yang Ying, I was somewhat surprised, but seeing her standing with Xu Han, I also bowed in greeting.
Zhang Changgui lay on the side, clutching his injured arm tightly. Since Ye Feng appeared, he hadn't dared to utter a sound.
Now that he saw the village chief arrive, he finally burst into tears.
"Village Chief! You must stand up for us... Yang Fu, that murderous demon, has bullied us terribly... Ouyang He was hacked to death with an axe by him, and he even tried to kill me and Li Er. If it weren't for this immortal master, we would never have met you again..."
Zhang Changgui, clutching his severed arm with his other hand, knelt down in front of the village chief, weeping bitterly.
Many of those present had been bullied by him, and seeing him in his current state filled them with immense satisfaction.
But the village chief didn't think so.
In his eyes, Zhang Changgui was a good person who was obedient, capable, and filial from time to time.
Seeing his current state, he was instantly enraged and resolved to severely punish Yang Fu.
Even if Yang Fu had an outer disciple standing next to him, so what?
His own son was an inner disciple, and this newly promoted outer disciple dared to cause trouble?
"Yang Fu! You killed someone at the foot of Qingyun Mountain, how do you explain that?"
By this time, Ye Feng and Yang Fu had finished catching up. Ye Feng took out a lot of elixirs and showed them to Yang Fu, who beamed with joy. Yang Fu quickly warned him not to show off and to put them away immediately.
These were all intended for Yang Fu, but since he lacked magical powers and couldn't use the storage bag, Ye Feng had to keep them for himself first.
Hearing the village chief's words, the two finally turned their gaze in this direction.
Yang Fu had originally thought he was going to die, but seeing Ye Feng's promotion made him so happy that he forgot his own predicament.
Now, startled awake by the village chief, he finally realized what was happening and immediately stepped forward.
Just as he was about to speak, Ye Feng stopped him again.
"My name is Ye Feng. This is an elder in my family. My elder has been bullied in the village. I wonder what explanation the village chief has for this."
"You...! It was clearly your wicked servant who indiscriminately killed innocent people, and you're the one who's accusing me first!"
The village chief angrily pointed at Ye Feng. Although mortals must respect immortal masters, with Xu Han by his side, he was not intimidated by Ye Feng, who had just been promoted to outer sect.
"The three of them ganged up on one, so they deserved to die. You old man, you can't even tell right from wrong, how can you be the village chief?"
"You...you...you! Even if you are an outer disciple, killing a fellow disciple's relative is a capital offense. Aren't you afraid of the sect's enforcement of the law?"
Seeing that he couldn't win the argument with Ye Feng, the village chief simply tried to pin the blame on him.
Upon hearing this, Yang Fu could no longer hold back.
"I killed the person. Do whatever you want with him, it has nothing to do with my young master!"
"Fine! Since you confess, there's nothing more to say. Men, arrest Yang Fu and take him to town. Have the town mayor lock him up and execute him at a later date!"
The village elder, leaning calmly on his cane, beckoned several burly men forward, and then added,
"Tell the mayor that the man is the uncle of Liang Kuan, an inner disciple, and that Liang sent him here. The evidence is irrefutable, and there is no need for a trial!"
After saying that, he gave Ye Feng a provocative look.
Yang Fu stood there calmly, waiting to be arrested, while Ye Feng stood to the side, a half-smile on his face.
Three burly men, glancing at Ye Feng, stepped forward shakily.
"boom...."
A line of fire rose a meter in front of Yang Fu, and the three burly men immediately turned and ran, scattering like birds and beasts.
"Anyone who crosses this line shall die!"
