Ye Qiu's sudden shout made Ye Feng freeze in place for a moment.

He frowned and looked at Ye Qiu. Looking through his past memories, he was very sure that this person... he didn't know him.

"Who are you?"

Ye Feng asked in confusion. He was not as reckless as his brother. Usually, before taking action, he would ask about the other party's background and origins.

When you talk to him, he will decide how much respect he will give you based on your status.

The first impression Ye Qiu gave him was very strange. This man had extraordinary appearance and excellent temperament, but his aura was very ordinary.

Just like the calm surface of a lake, without any ripples.

Ye Feng wanted to see Ye Qiu's cultivation level clearly, but he found out... Ye Qiu's sea of ​​​​mansion was like a vast ocean, unfathomable and impossible to see clearly.

That was his first feeling.

Based on Ye Feng's many years of experience, this person's strength is definitely outstanding. Moreover, in this situation, he still dared to come out and actively talk to him, which shows that he is confident.

So, who is his confidence? Is it Bai Junlin behind?

Ye Feng was secretly guessing in his heart.

Seeing how thoughtful he was, Ye Qiu couldn't help but admire him.

"This man is indeed quite scheming! As expected of the eldest son of the Sword Tomb lineage, it seems that Ye Qingxuan has really met his match."

For some reason, between these two people, Ye Qiu always felt that Ye Qingxuan was more pleasing to the eye.

Facing his question, Ye Qiu smiled slightly and said, "Me? I'm just a passerby."

As soon as these words came out, Ye Feng's face suddenly darkened. Ye Qiu did not directly answer his question, which made him feel a little disrespected.

He immediately showed no good expression and said, "Humph, since you are just passing by, then please get out of my way. Be careful that you may hurt innocent people if you start fighting..."

After saying that, he walked towards Yaya with a cold gaze.

Halfway through the walk, he said in an extremely cold tone: "You, a small Jiang family, dare to look down on the power of our Ye family. Little girl, you are really brave!"

"Today, I want to see who dares to protect you..."

As soon as these words were spoken, a terrifying murderous intent burst out. The terrifying suppressing force instantly made Yaya's face turn pale, and her body began to become unstable.

Although she had already broken through to the realm of kinghood, she still had no power to resist Ye Feng's terrifying suppression.

"Hey, your surname is Ye, what's the big deal about bullying a little girl? Come and fight with me."

Seeing Yaya being bullied, Bai Junlin could no longer sit still. Seeing that Ye Qiu had no intention of taking action, he wanted to continue training Yaya.

But he couldn't stand it.

He is not Yaya's master, so he doesn't need to teach her anything or train her. He just needs to pamper her.

As for how to train Yaya, that is Ye Qiu's business and he has no right to interfere.

"Just you?"

Seeing Bai Junlin show up on his own initiative, Ye Feng finally smiled. His original intention was to encourage Bai Junlin to come out.

Seeing that his plan had succeeded, he immediately gave up on Yaya, turned around and said with disdain.

Upon hearing this, Bai Junlin was furious. After all, he was Bai Ze's legitimate son, and when had he ever suffered such humiliation?

What's more, the two of them have been rivals for many years. They had fought each other in the Taichu Mine back then.

But the game ended in a draw at that time. I didn’t expect that after ten years of seclusion, Ye Feng would become so arrogant.

"I really don't know what makes you so arrogant."

Bai Junlin responded coldly, walked out slowly, and said, "Since you want to compete with me, fine... I will put an end to your arrogance today."

"Haha, Bai Junlin, ah Bai Junlin, do you think I am still the same person I was back then? You, I'm afraid, are not worthy enough. Otherwise... count the one next to you in as well, and you two can come together."

As soon as these words were spoken, Bai Junlin became angry instantly.

“Arrogant!”

He never expected that there would be someone in this world who was even crazier than him. It would be fine if he just ignored him, but he even looked down on his elder brother.

Immediately, this street became depressing in an instant, and an invisible fighting spirit enveloped the entire street.

Ye Qiu watched all this expressionlessly. He did not intervene, but glanced at the dark corner of the street.

There, sat an old man with a hunched body and ragged clothes.

Thrown into the crowd, he was a particularly inconspicuous existence, but... at that moment just now, Ye Qiu felt a very terrifying aura.

"A strong man of the sacrificial way?"

Ye Qiu frowned, he didn't expect that such a master was hidden in this small capital of the Fire Nation.

Judging from the other party's breath, this person should not be a strong man from the Ye clan. However, Ye Qiu couldn't understand why such a peerless strong man would be so lonely and wandering on the streets?

“Interesting…”

Ye Qiu didn't look at him, but just watched him out of the corner of his eye. He seemed to feel that someone was paying attention to him. He stood up slowly and put away the wine gourd in his hand.

He casually disappeared at the end of the street. Such a strange behavior immediately caught Ye Qiu's attention.

If he had nothing to hide, why would he choose to leave in a hurry the moment he felt someone was noticing him?

"There is a problem. There is definitely something wrong with this person..."

Ye Qiu immediately made a judgment in his mind, but he couldn't leave at the moment, otherwise he really wanted to catch up and take a look at this mysterious old man. What is his background and what does he want to do in the capital of the Fire Country?

"Humph, you insolent fellow! Who do you think you are? How dare you act so rashly in front of my eldest brother?"

Bai Junlin was furious. He did not ask Ye Qiu for instructions. He walked straight over and protected Yaya who was oppressed by Ye Feng. He said, "Niece, go back to your master. Leave this to your uncle."

Under Bai Junlin's protection, Yaya's expression finally eased a little. The terrifying pressure had made her body weak.

She was walking unsteadily, but Ye Feng helped Yaya unintentionally.

Ye Qiu saw all of this. All along, the Taoism that Ye Qiu taught Yaya was the blood-seeding path that he had opened up.

Because he had already practiced it and knew that this path was completely correct, Ye Qiu intentionally or unintentionally let Yaya lean towards this path.

She might not have noticed this problem herself, because Ye Qiu never pointed it out.

When Yaya walked in front of him, Ye Qiutian opened his eyes and reached out to check on her condition.

One could clearly feel that a strange rune had been born invisibly in her body.

That is the blood rune.

It is the root of the blood race!

"Hmm... not bad."

Ye Qiu nodded with relief and didn't say anything else.

Yaya was a little frustrated and said, "I'm sorry, Master. Yaya has brought shame to our sect."

She didn't expect that she would be so vulnerable in front of Ye Feng. She felt very guilty at this moment.

Ye Qiu was amused when he heard this.

"Haha, silly girl, you are dreaming! A mere king-level person wants to resist the suppression of a Heavenly Venerable? You are dreaming."

This little girl is really bold.

When Yaya heard this, she felt even more embarrassed and stuck out her tongue with a very cute expression.
