Before the gates of Songcheng, a rider arrived, dusty and weary from his journey. From afar, the man exuded the aura of a great hero.
This is Qin Shoufeng, the leader of the Yanbing Sect.
He was the leader of a small sect, but he was also a well-known chivalrous figure in the martial arts world, and his reputation was widespread.
"father!"
Qin Shaoyang was deeply moved when he saw his father arrive on horseback.
Actually, he rarely saw his father care about him this much.
Don't forget, the father usually wouldn't let his son touch any of his treasured possessions.
This clearly shows that the father and son were not actually that close in their daily lives.
However, this may be because the father is a strong man, a great hero, and not very good at expressing his emotions.
However, this time, knowing that he had almost been in danger, his father traveled hundreds of miles on horseback, day and night, to come to his aid, which shows the importance of his son in his father's heart.
Qin Shaoyang was naturally deeply moved.
"Yang'er! What are you doing here! How long have you been waiting for me!" Qin Shoufeng felt guilty for almost missing his son as he rode past the city gate.
He jumped off his horse and immediately began to express his concern: "You, that night almost scared your father to death. How could such a thing happen? I told you, I shouldn't have let you and your aunt come out in the first place. Look how dangerous it was! It's all your aunt's fault for insisting on going out like that..."
Hearing his father complain about his aunt because he felt sorry for him, Ye Liang felt a chill run down his spine. His aunt was Ye Liang's teacher.
Qin Shaoyang quickly spoke up, interrupting his father, "Dad, let me introduce you. This is my elder brother Ye, my aunt's apprentice. I've told you about him many times!"
Once Ye Liang's identity was revealed, Qin Shoufeng naturally understood and could no longer speak ill of Zhang Yuzhen.
He immediately changed his tune, saying, "So you're Brother Ye Liang! My wife and son have often talked about you! Meeting you today, I can see you truly have an extraordinary bearing; you're a young hero!"
"Greetings, Grandmaster." Ye Liang heard Qin Shoufeng complaining to Zhang Yuzhen and naturally felt sorry for his master. However, he also knew how to truly care for his master.
Falling out with your master over such a trivial matter will only make your master's life in the Yanbing Sect even more difficult.
Ye Liang knew exactly what to do to ensure that Zhang Yuzhen could live with her head held high in the Yanbing Sect!
That is, when the Bixian Sect develops and no one dares to underestimate it.
As the maternal family of their master, Bixian Sect has become powerful, so Yanbing Sect naturally dares not underestimate their master, Zhang Yuzhen.
"Young brother, no need for such formalities, please rise!" Qin Shoufeng treated Ye Liang with great courtesy, personally helping the younger man to his feet.
"Master, my master and my senior sisters are already waiting to welcome you at the gate of the Song residence." Ye Liang spoke up for his master.
"Why all this fuss? You've really gone to so much trouble. Let's hurry up and go, so we don't keep them waiting." Qin Shoufeng's words still had some human touch.
Ye Liang nodded, led his horse, and went into the city with Qin Shoufeng and his son.
After entering the city, the streets were crowded. Ye Liang and his son Qin Shoufeng did not ride recklessly, but instead rode slowly towards the Song residence.
A true hero cannot act recklessly; charging through the streets on horseback would be an insult to his reputation. Such details naturally draw attention.
At the gate of the Song residence, Master Zhang Yuzhen, along with her disciples, paid their respects to her husband, Qin Shoufeng.
In front of Zhang Yuzhen's many disciples, Qin Shoufeng was very considerate of Zhang Yuzhen, personally helping her up and asking with concern, "Yuzhen, how have you been these days?"
Zhang Yuzhen replied gracefully, "My disciples are all well and have taken good care of me. I am perfectly fine."
"Okay, that's good!" In front of everyone, Qin Shoufeng was not good at expressing his feelings, so he was a little tongue-tied.
At this moment, he turned to his wife's disciples and exclaimed, "Yu Zhen's disciples, both men and women, are truly outstanding! Look at these female disciples, each one exudes the air of a chivalrous heroine, with unparalleled beauty. Young Master Ye, the male disciple, is also handsome and possesses an exceptionally composed demeanor. Standing together, they are a perfect match, each one extraordinary, with limitless potential!"
"Master, you flatter us. We disciples are unworthy of such praise," said Senior Sister Qi Xue, deferring on behalf of their master.
Zhang Yuzhen's disciples still respected him, their grandmaster, which pleased Qin Shoufeng greatly, and he didn't feel mistreated.
He, who was not stingy to begin with, took the initiative to say, "I came in a hurry this time and didn't have time to prepare any decent gifts for you. This jade pendant is something I've worn close to my body for many years; it's a small magical artifact with some protective function. Now, I'm giving it to you. In the future, if you take this jade pendant to my Yanbing Sect, you can see me or your master immediately without any hindrance. If any of you sects encounter difficulties, you can come to us at any time. Our Yanbing Sect will definitely give you our full support."
These words mean that what was given to Ye Liang and his senior sisters was not just a jade token, but also a promise from Yanbing Sect that they would definitely do their best to help Bixian Sect.
This promise is more important than the jade pendant itself; it is the value of this small ritual object.
Normally, anyone would be overjoyed to receive such a jade pendant.
After all, this represents a promise of assistance from a powerful entity. For the weak, this is certainly something they would much rather have.
But are they the weak?
Therefore, the senior sisters all frowned slightly.
