If it were in the past, Chen Ye would have agreed without hesitation.
But after being hit by Chi Xuan a few days ago, he still has internal injuries and can only exert 60% to 70% of his full strength. Although the misty purple pendant can temporarily improve his strength, the improvement is limited after all. Chen Ye is still only in the Xiantian realm, so he is not sure that he can beat Feng Shao in the Jindan realm.
As a result, his hesitation did not matter, as some people who were looking for trouble immediately started to make a fuss.
"Brother, what are you afraid of? Go ahead! Beat him up!"
"It's just a golden elixir, what's there to be afraid of? Go ahead, brother!"
"He is just one person, and you have so many of us supporting you. What is there to be afraid of?"
"If you defeat him, Lin Xiaoran will be yours!"
…
The more Chen Ye listened, the darker his face became. "It's easy for you to say, but I'm the one who's going to get beaten! Can't you have a little empathy?"
It was the Xun who saw Chen Ye's embarrassment. He snorted coldly and said, "Brother Feng, what kind of ability is it to bully a cultivator in the Xiantian realm like this? If you have the guts, why don't you choose a real genius?"
This Xun guy is no longer pretending, the meaning of his words is already very clear. Today, I am here for nothing else but to embarrass you, Feng Shao!
When Chen Ye heard his first sentence, he was secretly grateful in his heart. But when he heard the second sentence, his face became even darker.
What? Am I not a genius? If you have the guts, give me three years. After three years, I will beat all of you by myself!
Just when a large group of people were eager to see Feng Shao make a fool of himself, Fang Yiming suddenly snorted coldly. This snort was not very loud, but coming from the Son of the Nine Yin Saint, it instantly silenced the whole audience.
Fang Yiming pointed at the man surnamed Xun and said, "Xun Ying, don't think I don't know what you are up to. No matter how good your plan is, will Yunjian Pavilion choose you as its son-in-law? Lu Chuan, Qian Zhonghai, Li Quan... Where do you get the confidence to think you are worthy of Miss Lin? If you are not convinced, why don't you go to Yunjian Pavilion to find Pavilion Master Lin?"
Fang Yiming had long disliked these people. No matter who Lin Xiaoran married, it was Yunjian Pavilion's private matter. How could these people have the right to interfere? In the final analysis, they were just jealous of Feng Shao!
Before those who had been making a fuss could speak, a monk in a moon-white robe stood up and said in a deep voice, "Amitabha, what Donor Fang said is also what I think in my heart. Donors cannot understand the words 'love' and 'desire', so it is understandable that you feel angry. But if you want to enter the devil's way because of this, you will only harm yourself. I hope you don't force it!"
As expected of a sect in Dongzhou famous for its Zen debates, as soon as Xingjue opened his mouth, he directly accused him of being possessed by a demon. Feng Shao couldn't help but laugh secretly when he heard it.
At this time, Monk Wuzhen of Wuliang Temple also stood up. He was much more direct than Xingjue. He said in a rough voice: "Donors, aren't you meddling in too much of my business? Do we need to discuss what Yunjian Pavilion wants with you? In my opinion, donors are just too idle, otherwise they wouldn't want to get involved in such matters!"
Among the top forces in Dongzhou, Guan Shuo, the Saint of Taixuan, had clearly sided with Feng Shao, and the Saint of Jiuyin and the Buddhist disciples of Longhua Temple had also made their positions clear. Wuliang Temple had always been committed to exorcising demons, but Wuzhen, the first of the younger generation, stood up and spoke a fair word, which surprised many people.
Smart people understood the situation immediately. Feng Shao quietly won over three of the five super first-class forces in Dongzhou, plus the Yunjian Pavilion behind him, which means that 80% of the super first-class forces are on his side. As for the positions of the other many first-class and second-class forces, it is still unclear for a while. But what is certain is that Feng Shao is not completely without support at this time.
But some people were even more indignant when they saw this. Most of them had been warned by their elders before coming. The most important thing for this trip was to find ways to destroy the engagement between Feng Shao and Lin Xiaoran. Most of those who had this plan were not as powerful as the three holy places, but they were the best among the first-class forces. The reason they had this plan was that they were attracted by the wealth of Yunjian Pavilion.
As long as the engagement lasted, none of them had a chance. But once the engagement was broken, wouldn't their chance come?
Because of the instructions from their elders, these people were somewhat unscrupulous in their words. Many people stood up and mocked Feng Shao for picking on the weak, while some of the more impulsive ones were ready to fight Feng Shao.
They were not afraid of Fang Yiming and the others taking action. After all, people from top-tier forces, except for the Nine Nether Holy Land, were all proud and would not easily take action against others. On the contrary, some less famous sects and forces were less cautious when doing things.
For a moment, the square was filled with noise and the atmosphere was full of tension, and it seemed that a fight would break out at any time.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Feng Shao couldn't help rubbing his forehead. Although he had already guessed that something like this would happen, he still felt a headache now.
Those who were making noises naturally had great ideas about Lin Xiaoran. However, their coveting of Lin Xiaoran was more out of the need for profit. If Lin Xiaoran was not backed by a super power like Yunjian Pavilion, they would at most covet Lin Xiaoran's beauty.
There is no point in talking to such people, unless you really give up the benefits that make them want to, or simply beat them into submission. But unfortunately, the former is impossible, and Feng Shao does not want to be a sucker; as for the latter... Feng Shao is quite confident that he can beat these people into submission, but it is inevitable that the people behind them will be attracted.
He is not one of those sons of luck. Acting recklessly will often bring even greater troubles.
Just as Feng Shao was thinking about how to make these people shut up, a voice suddenly came from the sky:
"Wow, it's so lively here!"
Everyone looked up and saw a dozen women hovering in the sky. The leader was a young woman who looked to be in her twenties, with a beautiful figure and a faint smile on her face. She was wearing a white dress that struck a perfect balance between gorgeousness and simplicity, making her look like a fairy in the clouds.
The girls behind her were holding flower baskets, with their hair tied in a bun, and looked calm, with a hint of transcendence. These girls looked to be around fifteen or sixteen years old, and their outstanding looks could not hide their immaturity. However, the fact that they were suspended in the air showed that their strength was at least at the innate level. Judging from their clothes and the position they were standing in, they were obviously the maids of the leading woman.
Everyone was stunned when they saw this.
Many sects were able to recruit so many Xiantian-level disciples at once. However, few sects were willing to make these disciples who were able to reach the Xiantian level at such a young age serve as maids.
Many people couldn't help but think about it carefully. Which force dominated by women could have such a grand show? Some sharp-eyed and knowledgeable people quickly figured out the other party's origin and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Hundred Flower Valley! You are the Saint of Hundred Flower Valley, Feng Wanqing!"
"Hundred Flower Valley?" Many people understood the name immediately, but then they became confused again.
Why would people from Baihua Valley come here?
Baihua Valley is a sect in Zhongzhou. In terms of strength, it can only be regarded as a first-class sect in Zhongzhou, but if it is in Dongzhou, it can be compared with the five super first-class forces. The disciples of Baihua Valley are all women. They usually eat hundreds of flowers and nourish themselves with the spiritual energy of hundreds of flowers. Therefore, all the disciples of Baihua Valley are beautiful, and any one of them can be regarded as a stunning beauty.
It's just that the Zhongzhou sects rarely leave Zhongzhou on weekdays, and have little contact with the other four continents. But why are there disciples from the Hundred Flowers Valley here today, and the one leading them is actually the Saint Girl of the Hundred Flowers Valley?
Feng Wanqing ignored the person who was talking, but kept looking down. After a moment, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she dodged and landed on the ground.
Chen Ye, who had been forgotten by everyone, was just like everyone else, staring at the disciples of Baihua Valley in the sky in a daze. Suddenly, his eyes blurred, and Chen Ye saw that the Saint of Baihua Valley had landed in front of him. Her beautiful eyes kept looking him up and down, and her eyes showed joy.
Chen Ye felt his entire body crawling with fear when he was stared at by the other party, and couldn't help but ask, "Excuse me..."
But before he could ask the question, Feng Wanqing hugged him in her arms and said in a trembling voice: "Ye'er, you are my Ye'er! My child, mother really misses you!"
Suddenly, everyone in the square was stunned.
It was rumored that the saints of Baihua Valley had to maintain a pure body and never come into contact with any man. How come Feng Wanqing hugged a young man right away and claimed to be his mother?
If this is true, I am afraid it will become a shocking scandal in Baihua Valley!
After being stunned for a long time, Chen Ye asked in an incredulous tone: "You...you are my mother? The mother who left me shortly after giving birth to me?"
Feng Wanqing choked up and said, "My child, I had no choice! That day, Master forced me to go back to Baihua Valley. If I didn't leave, the entire Chen family would be wiped out. In order to protect you and your son, I had to leave you, who was just one month old, and go back to Baihua Valley with Master. But in the past 18 years, I have missed you and your son all the time. Today, you have mercy on me and finally reunited you and your son!"
While the two were performing a happy reunion, Feng Shao was watching this scene and fell into deep thought.
If the plot develops according to normal procedures, it would be Feng Wanqing's turn to stand up for her own son next, right?
