After getting Qing Yangzi's promise, the old man left contentedly, leaving Qing Yangzi and Feng Shao, the master and his disciple, behind.

Feng Shao was silent for a long time before he said, "Disciple doesn't understand."

Qing Yangzi smiled faintly and said, "Feng Shao, I know you are unwilling to accept it. But real gold is not afraid of fire. As long as you have enough strength, why should you be afraid of the challenge of others?"

Feng Shao said calmly: "So you can ignore character?"

Qing Yangzi frowned: "No one is perfect. Although Ye Chen's moral character is flawed, if he is given a chance, he may be able to change for the better."

Feng Shao asked back: "Master also said 'maybe not'. Could it be that Master's expectations for Ye Chen are pinned on these two words 'maybe not'?"

Feng Shao's words immediately left Qing Yangzi speechless.

Feng Shao said to himself, "Since I became Master, I have devoted all my energy and efforts, and every day and night I have been worrying about how to expand the sect. I believe that I have given a lot to the sect and have lived up to it. But why am I only a Holy Son, but I have been challenged twice in a few days? And each time, the position of Holy Son is at stake? In the eyes of Master, whoever is the best fighter is qualified to take the position of Holy Son?"

Feng Shao's questioning immediately annoyed Qing Yangzi. He flicked his sleeves and said unhappily, "I am your master and the head of Taiwei Sect. This matter should be handled according to my opinion! Feng Shao, you must remember that no matter how high your status in the sect is, you are still just my disciple!"

Feng Shao was silent for a while, then suddenly laughed at himself: "So in the eyes of Master, I have already achieved so much that I am afraid of you? Could it be that Master thinks that I work so hard day and night just for the power in the sect?"

After waiting for a long time, Feng Shao didn't get any reply from Qing Yangzi, so he could only sigh softly and turn away.

Looking at Feng Shao's back, Qing Yangzi's face was gloomy.

After leaving the inner hall, Feng Shao did not return to his residence directly, but went straight to the location of the three branches. After arriving at the place, Feng Shao made some inquiries and found out that Ye Chen was not on the mountain. As for where he went, no one knew.

Feng Shao frowned slightly, and a sense of foreboding suddenly arose in his heart.

He didn't know where this ominous premonition came from, but his intuition told him that when the Son of Fortune went down the mountain, it was probably not a good thing.

But where can Ye Chen go?

Suddenly, Feng Shao remembered the gang of hooligans he met in Liyang City a few days ago. Thinking of the fantasy novels he had read in his previous life, Feng Shao suddenly felt that the most likely place for Ye Chen to go might be Liyang City.

Thinking of this, Feng Shao no longer hesitated, and immediately flew up on his sword, heading straight for Liyang City.

Ye Chen arrived in Liyang City that afternoon.

It was unknown whether Feng Shao really saw through the behavior of this son of destiny, or whether Ye Chen had no other place to go except Liyang City. Anyway, after staying in Taiwei Mountain for two days, Ye Chen's heart became restless again, so he ran to Liyang City.

Walking on the streets of Liyang City, Ye Chen looked around and seemed quite content. Just as he was enjoying himself, an angry voice suddenly shouted, "It's you! You stole my things!"

Ye Chen didn't react for a while until someone grabbed his clothes. Then he realized that the person who was grabbing his clothes was Deng Ying, whom he had just met a few days ago.

Because Deng Ying was beautiful, Ye Chen was quite interested in this girl. Seeing that she was pulling him and looking angry, he couldn't help but asked in confusion: "Miss Deng, I didn't offend you, did I?"

Deng Ying shouted angrily, "It's you! I invited you to my home with good intentions, but you stole my things! Return the things quickly, or I will report you to the police!"

Since the Blood Refining Sword was lost in Linglong Pavilion that day, Deng Ying has been worried every day. She knew very well that it was Ye Chen who stole the things, but she didn't dare to tell her father. After all, if she hadn't brought him home, how could the things be lost?

Although her father was the shopkeeper of Linglong Pavilion, he was not the owner of Linglong Pavilion. The real owners of Linglong Pavilion were Lin Fengtian and Xiao Ruoyao from Yunjian Pavilion, so if Linglong Pavilion lost something, the shopkeeper would be to blame. If Yunjian Pavilion knew about this, her father, the shopkeeper, would probably not be able to continue his job.

Worried about her father's future, Deng Ying had been unable to eat or sleep these days. Today, she was in a bad mood, so she went out to stroll on the street, but unexpectedly she ran into Ye Chen.

Deng Ying was startled at first, then she couldn't help feeling happy, but then she became angry again.

You little thief, you actually have the nerve to show up in Liyang City. Do you really think that I have forgotten you?

Thinking of this, Deng Ying rushed forward without hesitation and grabbed Ye Chen. If Ye Chen dared to make a move, she would let him know that the people of Yunjian Pavilion were not so easy to bully!

After Deng Ying's reminder, Ye Chen finally remembered what he had done a few days ago. But he didn't feel guilty at all, but rather a little annoyed.

In his mind, this "Red Dragon Sword" was his. No matter what the reason was for the sword to appear in Linglong Pavilion, he had a reason to take it back. As for stealing? It's funny, the son of luck, can that be called stealing?

So Ye Chen was not panicked at all. Not only was he not panicked, he was even able to argue with Deng Ying.

So he said to Deng Ying in a gentle voice, "Miss Deng, I think there may be some misunderstandings between us. Have you forgotten how much I helped you last time? I don't ask for anything in return, but you don't know how to frame me like this!"

At this point, Ye Chen felt a little dissatisfied. He admitted that stealing the sword was not a very decent thing, but he had his reasons! After all, it was his sword! But you can't call me a thief in public just because of this incident, right? Do you still want my face? What's more, I helped you last time, how can you repay kindness with enmity?

Ye Chen suddenly became righteous and spoke in a slightly tough manner.

Deng Ying was almost pissed off by Ye Chen. Help? Do I need your help? No matter how much the jade pendant is worth, I, Miss Deng, can afford it, right? You were the one who suddenly showed up and caused trouble, but now you say you helped me a lot? And you're using the favor to your advantage? Do you have any shame?

Deng Ying almost understood. This Ye Chen was a weirdo! Even if she had only helped others a little, he would remember it firmly in his heart. But he didn't care at all about the things he had done to harm others.

Deng Ying simply ignored what Ye Chen said and just kept saying, "Hurry up and return the stolen things, or I will hand you over to the government!"

Maybe Deng Ying's IQ was high this time. No matter how Ye Chen argued, she just kept saying that she would report it to the police. As the two people kept arguing, more and more passers-by came to watch.

After Ye Chen had argued for a few sentences, he found that Deng Ying was not listening, and he could not help but get angry. He shook off Deng Ying's hand and said coldly: "You said I stole something from your house, so where is the evidence?"

As soon as Ye Chen said this, before Deng Ying could speak, a passerby sneered, "Ye Chen, Ye Chen, everyone in Liyang City knows that you have always been a dirty guy. Do you think that just because you joined the Taiwei Sect, all the things you did in the past can be written off?"

Ye Chen was furious. He glared at the man who had spoken and shouted, "You try to say nonsense again? Be careful or I'll tear your mouth to pieces!"

As soon as he finished speaking, many people in the audience started to make noise.

"It's obviously your own fault, and you're still afraid of what others will say?"

"The most shameless person in Liyang City is you, Ye Chen!"

"Ye Chen, I warn you not to be arrogant! The Holy Son of Taiwei Sect has said that if anyone dares to use the name of Taiwei Sect to do evil, he will make that person pay!"

"Ye Chen, your brothers are finished, and your good days are also coming to an end!"

…

After hearing so many people accusing Ye Chen, Deng Ying finally realized that Ye Chen had a bad character and had done so many sneaky things. But this person not only did not repent, but became even worse. She couldn't help but look down on Ye Chen even more. She reached out and grabbed Ye Chen's clothes again, and said coldly: "Ye Chen, so many people say that you are not clean, what else do you have to quibble about?"

Ye Chen laughed in anger, waved his hand and threw Deng Ying several meters away, and said coldly: "I, Ye Chen, have done everything in my life, why should I explain to others? You can say that I stole it or robbed it, if you have the guts, send me to the authorities!"

After saying that, Ye Chen no longer paid attention to everyone. He directly raised his sword and flew away.

Seeing Ye Chen offering the Blood Refined Sword, Deng Ying could not help but yelled angrily: "You still say that I wronged you, but you stole this sword from my house? You bastard, return my sword to me!"

But Ye Chen ignored him and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
