However, Qin Shoufeng clearly wouldn't like Zhang Yuzhen's answer.
It's unlikely that he'll be able to accept so quickly that Ye Liang, or even any of his senior sisters, would be better than him!
Of course he would suspect that both he and his stepmother were being deceived by Ye Liang!
——
"I'm sorry, Brother Ye. I thought this was your grandmaster, your elder, and I should come out to greet him and show my respect. I didn't mean to come out and cause you trouble." Lin Yan was very apologetic about what had happened, and looked at Ye Liang with a guilty look in her eyes.
Deep down, she was also deeply impressed by Ye Liang's protection and support for her.
This is a responsible person who will not compromise or choose to wrong her friend just because the other party is her master.
Lin Yan's heartfelt words made Ye Liang feel even more sorry for her.
Ye Liang smiled and said, "This has nothing to do with you. To be fair, it was my master's fault. Don't take it to heart. Whoever is at fault should be at fault. I'm a very reasonable person. I'm glad you thought of coming to see my master with me, so why would I blame you?"
"Thank you, Brother Ye." Hearing this, Lin Yan was immediately struck by how reasonable and responsible a man could be.
Even if it was her father, whom her mother loved so deeply, he must have been an outstanding man. But, to be fair, as his daughter, she could still sincerely feel that her father was not as good as Ye Liang.
"Ye Liang!"
The junior sister, pouting, ran over and stood next to Ye Liang. The eldest and second senior sisters, as well as junior sister Wei Wenshi, were all present.
They all chose to stand on Ye Liang's side.
As soon as the junior sister arrived at Ye Liang's side, she immediately began to complain about her grandmaster: "Grandmaster treats Master very badly. He doesn't respect Master at all. It's as if the head of the Yanbing Sect is so great."
Ye Liang smiled and said, "Junior Sister, don't be too angry or worried. I can sense it. Master is a great hero, very chauvinistic. Men like that are usually a bit rough around the edges and neglectful of their women. But Master isn't a bad person. He probably makes Master suffer a little sometimes. But as long as the major issues are acceptable, we'll let him be. We, his brothers and sisters, know in our hearts that our Bixian Sect is Master's family. We'll always support her, no matter what. With our family backing her up, Master won't be bullied by anyone in the Yanbing Sect. Am I right?"
"Ye Liang, I feel better now that you say that." The junior sister's pouting lips finally seemed to have softened.
He added, "Ye Liang, if only my master's temper were like yours. If someone were your wife, she certainly wouldn't be mistreated."
The junior sister firmly believed this without a doubt.
These words, seemingly innocent childish remarks, were nonetheless absolutely correct to Lin Yan and her senior sisters.
Even Gui Bo, a man himself, felt that these words made perfect sense.
Ye Liang's willingness to confront and argue with his master to protect Lin Yan's feelings was admirable, even to the Ghost Uncle.
This kind of courage to confront one's elders is not something everyone possesses.
His junior sister's praise made Ye Liang feel ashamed, and he said, "Junior sister is talking nonsense again. What kind of girl would be blind to fall for me? You know me, I'm lazy and spoiled, I know myself, I have all sorts of flaws. But I will never let the people around me suffer."
"That's right!" Ye Liang finally admitted half of what she said, and the junior sister was still very satisfied.
Junior Sister is truly Ye Liang's source of joy. Just listening to a few words from her instantly lifts his spirits.
Ye Liang immediately relaxed and said, "Let's go back. Junior Sister, come fishing with me later. We didn't catch any fish yesterday."
"Great! Fishing! Fishing!" The junior sister was overjoyed when she heard about fishing; she was practically jumping for joy.
This scene brought a knowing smile to the faces of the senior female students.
Only Lin Yan and Gui Bo had strange expressions at this moment, not understanding why Ye Liang would still be in the mood to go fishing.
As if understanding Lin Yan's thoughts, Ye Liang led them back while saying, "Lin Yan, you must be wondering why my junior sister and I value fishing so much. Actually, my fishing is different from others. I fish in rivers where there are no fish. Moreover, not only fish, but I can also catch treasures that are not in the river."
"Brother Ye is lying, right?" How could Lin Yan possibly believe him right away after hearing this?
Knowing Lin Yan wouldn't believe him so quickly, Ye Liang smiled and said, "You'll believe it when you see it for yourself. Let's go back. We still need to help Uncle Gui upgrade his equipment and magic weapons."
Upon hearing this, Uncle Gui was immediately excited.
In truth, he had been on tenterhooks for a long time, wondering when Ye Liang would help him strengthen his equipment and enhance the combat power of his magic weapons, thereby improving his overall strength.
Although he was already a Golden Core Realm expert, capable of defeating many people in the martial arts world, who would think that his strength was too much or too sufficient?
No one would think that way.
The same goes for Gui Bo.
He even more eagerly desired to improve his strength as soon as possible.
Having been deeply shocked by Ye Liang's astonishing combat power, he was filled with a strong desire to gain even greater strength.
Otherwise, if he were always being bullied by a Foundation Establishment Realm weakling, what joy would there be in being a Golden Core Realm expert?
I'd rather be dead.
Back at his lodgings, Ye Liang immediately set to work, helping Gui Bo strengthen his equipment and improve the quality of his magical artifacts.
Uncle Gui waited anxiously to the side. He looked just like a hungry child, eagerly waiting for the hot buns in the pot to come out of the steamer so he could have a good meal. His anxious expression was exactly the same.
They are so impatient that they can't wait to get what they want.
Gui Bo's equipment is pretty good. A lot of the materials obtained from defeating the Beast King were used to forge equipment equivalent to a Loose Immortal level. However, the material combinations weren't ideal, resulting in weaknesses in the equipment's attributes.
However, this isn't entirely Ghost Uncle's fault. After all, the materials obtained from defeating the Beast King are extremely rare. Gathering all the materials needed for a complete set of equipment with matching attributes is truly a difficult task.
It's already quite an achievement to be able to put together even a single set.
