The gray-robed man's face turned somewhat pale as he looked at the round-faced man beside him.
"We...we might be in big trouble!"
The round-faced man glanced at Qin Feng with disdain. "He's just putting on an act!"
"There are only a handful of direct disciples in a sect. If he is one, how could I not recognize him?"
Upon hearing this, the gray-robed man stared at Qin Feng with suspicion for a while, as he had indeed never seen him before.
Moreover, he knew all the direct disciples of the Beiming Immortal Sect, and Qin Feng was not among them, so he felt relieved.
"Hmph, trying to be mysterious. Let's see how you keep up the act when the senior uncle arrives."
The gray-robed man glanced at Qin Feng, his face full of disdain.
So what if we're stronger than them?
This is the Northern Underworld Immortal Sect, the number one sect in the Southern Immortal Domain.
How many people would dare to cause trouble?
The round-faced man took several steps back and shouted, "Kid, I'll make you kneel before me and repent later!"
"You just slapped me twice, and I'll repay you a hundredfold!"
Qin Feng ignored the two clowns and simply closed his eyes, pretending to sleep.
The two round-faced men were furious upon seeing this; Qin Feng's ignoring behavior made them feel like clowns.
They were afraid of angering Qin Feng, so they dared not utter any more words of provocation.
A few minutes later.
A young man dressed in a blue robe flew out from inside the mountain gate.
This person is a deacon of the outer sect of the Northern Underworld Immortal Sect, named Qi Nian, who is at the peak of the Ascension Realm.
As soon as Qinian landed, the two round-faced men immediately scurried over.
The round-faced man pointed at Qin Feng, gritting his teeth. "Uncle-Master, this man slapped me twice without even asking what happened!"
"He even claimed to be a direct disciple of our sect!"
“I think he’s deliberately trying to cause trouble, Uncle-Master, you must teach him a lesson.”
Qi Nian glanced at the round-faced man, then looked at Qin Feng and began to sized him up.
After a moment, Qi Nian frowned. Due to the huge difference in their cultivation levels, he couldn't discern Qin Feng's true level at all; he only sensed that Qin Feng was extremely strong.
He took a deep breath, trying to keep himself calm.
"Senior, are you here to look for someone?"
Upon seeing Qinian's attitude, the round-faced man and his companion suddenly froze, their faces turning pale.
They originally thought Qin Feng was at most at the Integration Realm, but now even Qin Nian has to address Qin Feng as senior, so isn't he at least at the True Immortal Realm?
And those two mere Nascent Soul cultivators were so arrogant, repeatedly provoking Qin Feng.
Even now, just thinking about it makes them tremble and break out in a cold sweat.
Qin Feng, holding Ling Xueyan, slowly stood up and looked at Qin Nian, saying, "My name is Qin Feng. If you don't know me, go ask Zi Yun or Hao Yue!"
Upon hearing this, Qinian was taken aback at first, and then his face turned somewhat pale.
Although he had only recently joined the Beiming Immortal Sect, he had already heard of Qin Feng's name long ago.
It is said that he can even kill an Immortal Emperor; he is the sect leader of the Northern Underworld Immortal Sect.
"Zong...Zong Master!"
Qinian suddenly felt weakness in his legs and knelt down on the ground with a thud.
The two round-faced men were completely bewildered by the situation.
"metropolitan?"
"Our sect hasn't appointed a sect leader yet, has it?"
Qi Nian glared at the two round-faced men with a grim expression and roared, "He is the sect leader! Kneel down and admit your mistake!"
Upon hearing this, the two round-faced men's expressions changed drastically, and without the slightest hesitation, they immediately knelt down with a thud.
"Sect...Sect Master, I'm...I'm sorry, I know I was wrong?"
"Sect Master, please spare us this time. We promise we will never dare to do it again."
Qin Feng was completely taken aback. When did he become the sect master of the Northern Underworld Immortal Sect?
Are you sure you're not mistaken?
"How come I didn't know I had become the sect leader?"
Qi Nian was taken aback for a moment, then quickly said, "I heard it from someone, supposedly from several elders, but it shouldn't be wrong!"
Qin Feng hesitated for a moment, then immediately took out his communication magic item to contact Zi Yun. "When did I become the sect leader?"
Zi Yun was silent for a moment, then said calmly, "You're back? Come to Chi Yun Peak, and I'll explain to you in person!"
Qin Feng frowned; he had no interest in that lousy sect leader position.
He then looked at Qinian and the other two, and said calmly, "I'm very angry about what happened today. You'd better give me a satisfactory resolution!"
Qinian hurriedly said, "Please rest assured, I will definitely deal with them according to the sect rules!"
Qin Feng said nothing more, picked up Ling Xueyan, and flew towards the mountain gate.
Qin Nian watched Qin Feng disappear from sight and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, then stood up and looked at the two round-faced men. "You've been expelled from the sect. Get out!"
Neither of the round-faced men dared to say anything more, and they quickly got up and slunk away.
After all, having offended the sect leader, being able to live was already the greatest blessing for them.
Qi Nian watched the round-faced man and his companion walk away, his brows furrowed, his expression shifting between anger and uncertainty. "How come that guy came back so quickly?"
"Hopefully he won't affect Lord Qingluan's plans!"
...
Qin Feng asked several people before finally finding Chi Yunfeng.
Zi Yun had been waiting for Qin Feng's arrival outside the cave for a long time.
Before Qin Feng even landed, Zi Yun saw Ling Xueyan in Qin Feng's arms. She released her divine sense to scan her and immediately showed a strange expression.
When Qin Feng landed in front of her, she asked directly, "Who is this woman?"
Qin Feng didn't think much of it and replied, "My friend!"
Zi Yun stared at Ling Xueyan for a while, then said, "Your friend is no ordinary person. I suggest you break off your friendship with her!"
Qin Feng looked bewildered. "What do you mean?"
Zi Yun glanced at Qin Feng. "It's nothing!"
Qin Feng was speechless. "Are you jealous?"
"I'm warning you, never fall in love with me. We're just cultivation partners!"
Zi Yun chuckled and immediately changed the subject. "By the way, how did your cultivation level drop?"
"Or did you suppress it on purpose?"
Qin Feng didn't answer Zi Yun's question, but instead asked, "Are you and Hao Yue out of your minds? Why are you giving me the title of sect leader?"
Zi Yun pouted. "Besides you, who else in the entire sect is qualified to be the sect leader?"
"Haoyue will become the Supreme Elder, Qingyin will continue to serve as the Holy Maiden, and I will also become the Supreme Elder!"
"As for those elders, they are all too weak and not qualified to be sect leaders!"
"Besides, the sect leader needs to be a reliable person. Besides me, Haoyue, and Qingyin, who is more reliable than you?"
"Don't worry, it's just a nominal appointment. The sect's daily affairs will be handled for you!"
"All you need to do is show up when the sect encounters a major event!"
Qin Feng was speechless. "So you were treating me like a puppet?"
"I don't want to be a puppet. Let Lin Qingyin take on the position of sect leader!"
