Nine Stars Killer Novel - Chapter 63
Chapter 63 Journey
Not to mention the ten great elders, even the disciples standing around the clan hall were dumbfounded with shock. Their mouths were stupefied. The clan head had suddenly advanced to the Xiantian realm, but they were still two people. All of this was thanks to Ye Feng.
Seeing Ten First Elder’s fawning face, Ye Feng secretly despised and even cursed in his heart. But now, Ye Feng had the Yun Clan’s enemies. Originally, he wanted to clean up all these elders and change a batch of rookies. However, he thought about it over and over again. Ye Feng planned to use a slow-moving strategy to temporarily use them. After his father nurtured a batch of them, these people would let them retire peacefully in the future.
‘”Good job, Ye Feng. You are truly the lucky star of our Ye Clan. You will soon be the day of the inner court examination of the Heavenly Spiritual Academy. With your current strength, there shouldn’t be any problem. The Ye Clan will depend on you in the future.” The Second Elder changed his expression and said to Ye Feng with a complimentary tone.
“Second Elder is overpraising me. I am just a trash dragging down the clan. I am extremely grateful to receive Second Elder’s encouragement!” Ye Feng said sarcastically.
The Second Elder’s face turned red and white. He remembered that the Patriarch had already advanced to Xiantian, so he could only throw away this old face. As long as he could increase his strength, his face was nothing. In any case, he had already lost it once, so he didn’t care about losing it again.
“No exaggeration. All of this was taught by the Patriarch. The Patriarch saw that you have great potential very early on. The most correct thing the Patriarch has done these past few years is to plunder a large amount of resources for you to cultivate. Now, we all regret it very much. At that time, we didn’t give you much support.” The Fourth Elder’s complimentary gaze almost lifted the Patriarch to the heavens.
More than ten people each said a compliment, but Ye Wu did not say anything. Everything was in his eyes, wanting to see how Ye Feng dealt with these people.
Ye Wen, who was lying on the ground, stood up. Everything that had happened just now was in his eyes and his heart was dripping with blood. He looked at the people who had supported him just now. Now that Ye Long was dead, he immediately changed his face, his face ashen with anger.
“You … how did you agree to this? You agreed to impeach the Patriarch, but now it has changed again.” Ye Wenya gritted his teeth and said.
“Ye Wen, you still don’t repent. It’s all because of our foolishness and blindness. Fortunately, Ye Feng stopped you in time. Otherwise, our Ye Clan wouldn’t know what would happen.” More than a dozen people actually pointed their spears at Ye Wen. Instead, they said that they were bewitched by Ye Wen and agreed to this matter. Ye Feng could only sneer.
“Pu!” Ye Wen was furious. His eldest son was dead and his second son was crippled. Now, the ten elders had all changed, making him completely unconscious.
The Fifth Elder rubbed his hands and yearned for the Xiantian realm. “Ye Feng, we know our mistake. Can you give us our strength?”
“Fifth Elder, what did you say? This junior doesn’t know. Please explain clearly what you did wrong. Didn’t you all do it for the Ye Clan?” Ye Feng pretended to be confused.
“Right, right, right. We are all here for the Ye Clan. Didn’t you just say that you can help us upgrade the Xiantian Realm?” How could Fifth Elder not know that Ye Feng was pretending to be foolish, so he could only lose face and reveal the topic.
“That’s what you’re talking about! I seem to have said it before, but I didn’t say that I would help you advance to the Xiantian realm!”
Ye Feng spread out his hands with an innocent look. Behind him, Ye Qiu laughed. Ye Feng was clearly playing with them on purpose, and they still had to endure Ye Feng’s mockery.
‘”Ye Feng, after all, we are all the elders of the Ye Clan. If we all advance to the Xiantian realm, then our Ye Clan will soon have a very high status in the Open Source Nation. In fact, it can even be compared to the Heavenly Spiritual Academy. Doesn’t that mean our Ye Clan also has an incomparable glory? Your father, as the Clan Master, also has glory.” Tenth Elder said at this moment.
“That’s right, but why should I believe you?” Ye Feng sneered. Indeed, he did not believe their reason.
“We swear to be loyal to the Ye Clan and the Clan Master in the future!” Fifth Elder stretched out his palm and swore that the temptation to extend the lives of those who were about to die was something that no one could resist.
“Let’s talk about it in the future. Let’s see your performance in the future. If you satisfy me, I will consider raising your realms!” Ye Feng was too lazy to continue entangling with them. Even Ye Feng felt that he was wasting his life.
After saying that, Ye Feng left the clan hall, leaving the rest to his father. He would definitely deal with it perfectly, and Ye Feng’s role was finished.
The crowd automatically separated into a passageway and watched Ye Feng leave with awe-inspiring eyes. From now on, Ye Feng’s position in the Ye Clan was irreplaceable. He had almost become a legend. It was almost unimaginable for everyone to be able to kill a Xiantian Realm cultivator in a single move.
The Ye Clan entered a period of rapid development. Ye Wu led the four elders to Luocheng and completely suppressed the Yun Clan. The Yun Clan began to extend its business to Luocheng. The Yun Clan could only lower its head and act as a person. After removing the Yun Clan, the business of the Ye Clan became bigger and bigger. The ten elders also restrained themselves a lot.
However, Ye Feng never appeared again. He only told them that perhaps one day, when they were satisfied with what they had done, Ye Feng would consider improving their realm. Ye Feng only drew a big cake for them so that they could not see it.
In any case, Ye Feng was about to participate in the inner court examination. As long as he entered the inner court, his strength would increase to the Xiantian realm and he would obtain a few Xiantian pills, the problem shouldn’t be very big. Ye Feng had his reasons for saying so.
Days passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, Ye Feng had already returned to his clan for half a month. During this period of time, the Ye Clan had undergone earth-shaking changes. The biggest change was that the Ye Clan disciples had received more resources every month, and the clan’s cohesion had become stronger.
In the dark room, blood dripped from Ye Wen’s eyes. Ever since the failure of the coup, he had been placed under house arrest and could no longer be seen by the Ye Clan.
A grand farewell party was held in the lobby of the Ye Clan to celebrate Ye Feng’s return to the Heavenly Spiritual Academy and participate in the inner court examination at the end of the year. As long as Ye Feng joined the inner court, if his status was stable, then the Ye Clan’s status would only increase.
The cold wind blew. This year’s winter was exceptionally cold. The entire Open Source Nation was wrapped in silver, welcoming the first snow. Putting on the animal skin jacket made by his mother, Ye Feng went on his way against the cold wind.
The Hengduan Mountain Range was wrapped in a layer of silver clothes. After more than twenty days, Ye Feng returned to his courtyard. The entire academy was still operating in an orderly manner. However, these disciples were cultivating more diligently because they were going to participate in the inner courtyard examination in a few days.
Not everyone can participate in the inner court examinations every year. Only top elite disciples are qualified. As for those at the eighth level of the Houtian realm, there is almost no chance. Only those at the ninth level have the chance to participate.
This time, there were about twenty people from the Heavenly Spiritual Academy. They went to the Heavenly Spiritual Inner Court together. Ye Feng was also within the quota and had been chosen by the sect long ago.
“Bang!”
Three days later, the entire Heavenly Spiritual Academy rang with a melodious bell. Finally, it was time to gather.
Ye Feng woke up early and his blood boiled. Although it was a cold winter, it still couldn’t conceal Ye Feng’s enthusiasm. Joining the inner court was the dream of a martial artist and also the first step of a martial artist. Only the inner court could give him a greater chance to develop.
At this moment, many people were gathered in the large square. A large number of inner sect disciples came to watch. This time, the academy only selected 20 people after careful selection. These 20 people were definitely the strongest existences among the elite disciples.
Seeing Ye Feng walk over, the Three Dragons and One Phoenix took the initiative to walk towards Ye Feng.
“Junior Brother Ye, you’re back!” Almost everyone knew about Ye Feng’s return to the clan. The three of them came up to greet him.
“Greetings, senior apprentice-brother, senior apprentice-sister!” Ye Feng was very polite. These people didn’t have any malicious intentions towards him. Ye Feng also expressed his friendship. In addition to his trip to the Heavenly Valley, his relationship was not bad.
“Last time, you went back to the clan before you could thank Junior Brother.” Kou Chenlong actually bowed to Ye Feng, expressing his gratitude.
“Senior Brother, you’re too polite. You’re all fellow disciples. Why are you so polite!” Ye Feng was modest and courteous.
Many people came over to greet Ye Feng. After all, Ye Feng’s strength belonged to the strongest amongst them, so they should respect the strong.
After waiting for an incense stick of time, the upper echelons of the Heavenly Spiritual Academy began to arrive one after another. They landed on a high platform in the middle of the plaza. Looking at the disciples scattered around, they seemed to be waiting for the arrival of the Hall Master.
After a few breaths, the Hall Master appeared. A powerful Xiantian Qi spread out. The oppressed low-level disciples were unable to raise their heads. Ye Feng felt better. The Xiantian Realm did not pose much of a threat to him.
“It’s the annual inner court examination again. I’ve already seen the confidence on your faces. I hope that all of you can join the inner court this time. This is also the pride of our academy.” More than twenty people, all of them were brimming with confidence. It seemed that they were all determined to obtain it.
Ye Feng was also the same. His face was filled with excitement. After all, he was still a youth. Being able to enter a wider space, his excitement was overflowing in his words.
“I originally didn’t want to discourage everyone, but this examination is different from previous years. This time, many genius disciples have appeared in the outer courtyards. There are even disciples who have advanced to the Xiantian realm to participate in this inner courtyard examination. Therefore, the competition is very intense. You must be mentally prepared.”
A burst of sighs came from the crowd. They didn’t expect that Xiantian realm disciples would actually appear in other outer courtyards. The competition would only become more and more intense. After all, the number of spots in the inner courtyard was limited. Everything depended on strength.
Only Ye Feng’s expression did not change. The more intense the competition was, the easier it was to obtain the approval of the inner court. Only then would there be more room for development in the future. If he continued to seek peace and comfort, he would not be able to go further in the path of martial arts.
The headmaster of the academy talked about many matters needing attention. Everyone recorded them one by one. This time, four mentors led them to the inner courtyard. Instructor Li was among them, and three mentors, three men and one woman, also escorted these people together.
Everything was ready. Under the leadership of the four mentors, a group of more than twenty people left the academy and embarked on a new journey under the watchful eyes of ten thousand people.
