Nine Stars Killer Novel - Chapter 969
Chapter 969 Swallow a Bitter Pill in Silence
From Bai Xuehui’s tone, one could tell that they were close to each other, and they called Ye Feng a brother. Anyone with good eyesight could tell that Ye Feng was Bai Xuehui’s distinguished guest.
“You are Ye Feng?”
Hearing Ye Feng’s words, Zhou Feng’s expression turned sinister. He actually recognized him.
“Brother Zhou knows Brother Ye?”
What was puzzling was that Bai Xuehui and Ye Feng had caused quite a stir, but it wasn’t enough to attract the attention of the major powers. After all, he was only an ant-like character now.
“Someone has done something to steal people’s things. It’s impossible not to let others know about it. Brother Ye, do you remember what you stole?”
Zhou Feng’s expression obviously changed. Just now, he thought that Ye Feng was an honored guest. After learning of the other party’s identity, his tone immediately became gloomy.
When the proud sons of heaven who were whispering heard the conversation, they all felt that they did not know what had happened, but they could sense the hostility of Zhou Feng.
“Who is this kid? Why does he have a grudge with Zhou Feng?”
A young man in the distance frowned, puzzled.
“You don’t even know him. He’s been in the limelight lately. He kidnapped Little Princess from the Yuan Dynasty and killed a disciple of the Heavenly Sect. A few days ago, he won the first place in the Talisman Guild exam. He obtained a Heavenly Marrow Pill, an Immortal grade martial skill, and a complete set of techniques for making Void Talismans.”
Ye Feng’s origin was dug out bit by bit. Although it was not earth-shattering, everything surprised everyone. Ye Feng was only at the fifth level of the Divine Martial Stage, yet he was actually able to cause such a big commotion.
Regarding these genius disciples, whoever had no life in their hands, whoever did not do anything grand, knowing that Ye Feng was still at the fourth level of the Divine Martial Arts, they had no choice but to think deeply about such a crazy action.
‘”So there is a grudge with the Heavenly Sect. No wonder this Zhou Feng showed hostility when he saw Bai Xuehui. Unfortunately, this Ye Feng was a guest of Bai Xuehui. He didn’t look at the monk’s face and looked at the Buddha’s face. In this Heavenly Manor, he still had to give his master some face.”
Someone else said that Ye Feng was invited by Bai Xuehui. If Zhou Feng was targeting Ye Feng on the spot, wouldn’t it be targeting the owner of this place? Therefore, although Zhou Feng’s expression was ugly, he didn’t make a move, suppressing the anger in his heart.
“Brother Zhou, are you talking to me? I thought that some clown suddenly jumped out. I’m really sorry. What did you just say? Who stole things? I don’t know what your Heavenly Sect lost. Why don’t you say it out loud and let everyone hear it?”
Ye Feng directly ignored Zhou Feng. He wanted to tell you that it was you who stood in front of me and suddenly jumped out. Like a clown, you stretched out your face to let Ye Feng hit you.
“You …”
Zhou Feng was so angry that he couldn’t say anything. He had indeed managed to gather it himself. However, he didn’t expect that the person Bai Xuehui brought in would be Ye Feng. He originally thought that he wanted to make friends, but he didn’t expect it to be an enemy.
Ye Feng deliberately told him what the Heavenly Sect had lost. This made Zhou Feng feel very embarrassed. Only a few people knew about the secret realm key. It was Yang Dan who came back and called out some intimate disciples to investigate Ye Feng’s whereabouts. It was no coincidence that Zhou Feng had an extraordinary relationship with Yang Dan.
Therefore, Yang Dan did not conceal the secret realm key from Zhou Feng. As long as he found Ye Feng and snatched back the secret realm key, some seed disciples of the Heavenly Sect would be able to enter the Sword Immortal Cave.
“Quickly tell me, what did your Heavenly Sect lose?”
Someone was very interested in what the Heavenly Sect had lost.
Zhou Feng was dumb enough to eat coptis. He couldn’t tell the truth. The secret realm key’s information definitely couldn’t be leaked. Once it was leaked, their Heavenly Sect was trying to seize it back. It was almost impossible. It would definitely attract a large number of people’s attention.
Even Bai Xuehui looked strangely at Ye Feng beside him. He did not expect that Ye Feng’s words would cause Zhou Feng to be deflated. Now, he was also speechless.
If they continued to ask, the surrounding people would definitely want to know what the Heavenly Sect had lost. If they didn’t continue to ask, they wouldn’t be able to do anything to Ye Feng. They couldn’t act in public. Where would Bai Xuehui be? Today, he was the master.
Son of the War God, who dares to offend? In the Baiyun Imperial Family, apart from a few princes, Bai Xuehui’s reputation is extremely high. Otherwise, if so many people attend today’s banquet, it would be giving Bai Xuehui face.
“Kid, don’t be so arrogant. Senior Brother Yang Dan will arrive soon. I want to see how you can leave Qin Cheng.”
Zhou Feng shook his hand and ignored Ye Feng, suppressing the anger in his heart. It was inappropriate for him to clash now, so as not to reveal the secret realm key’s information.
“My legs are on my body. When am I willing to leave? Don’t worry, Brother Zhou.”
Ye Feng’s tone was neither anxious nor slow, nor did his expression fluctuate.
Standing behind Ye Feng, Gabon and Baiqiu looked at each other with admiration. Ye Feng did not humble himself in front of the Heavenly Sect and did not say anything. Moreover, he had evidence to advance and retreat. He cleverly slapped the other party in the face, causing him to feel unspeakable pain.
However, Ye Feng felt a huge wave in his heart. Hearing the word Yang Dan, Ye Feng had no choice but to be serious. He was a Seventh Stage Divine Martial Expert. With his current abilities, if he collided with Yang Dan, there was almost no chance of escaping.
Everyone was slightly disappointed to hear that Zhou Feng was unwilling to reveal what the Heavenly Sect had lost. However, one thing was certain. It must be an extremely precious item. If it could be seen by a Seed Disciple, how could it be an ordinary item?
The farce ended just like that. Bai Xuehui still held Ye Feng and walked into the manor, nodding when he saw everyone.
However, in the time it took to make a cup of tea, Ye Feng had known more than ten people. They were all geniuses from various major powers. There were people from the Tang Clan, the rest of the Heavenly Sect, and people from the Baiyun Imperial Clan. Among them, there was also a prince who participated in today’s banquet.
There were actually several powers in Qin Cheng that hid dragons and crouched tigers. Although they weren’t as powerful as the Tang Clan, they had a deep foundation and had already taken root here. It was almost impossible to uproot them. There were also quite a few monster disciples attending the banquet.
Remembering these names one by one in his heart, these people were all potential for the future, and they were also his competitors. Ye Feng had to pay attention to them.
Especially the disciples of the Tang Clan introduced by Bai Xuehui. Ye Feng felt that their auras were deep. They were not below Yang Dan. It seemed that they were all at the seventh level of the Divine Martial Arts. They were very powerful. After learning that Ye Feng was a disciple of the Tang Clan, he only nodded and did not interact with them much.
“Brother Ye, please feel free first. I’ll go receive the guests first. Please forgive me for entertaining Brother Ye later!”
After the introduction, Bai Xuehui left, letting Ye Feng familiarize himself with the environment.
“Young Master, I sensed several killing intents looking towards us just now.”
Gabon had a keen sense of killing intent, and from the moment it entered, it could sense a few murderous intents.
“You also feel it?”
Ye Feng turned his head and looked at Gabon. It seemed that he was right to bring him along. He was very sensitive to killing intent.
“Looks like Young Master has offended quite a few people in Qin Cheng!”
Bai Qiu rubbed his chin, looking like an expert, thinking about what he had just seen and heard.
“Are you afraid?”
Ye Feng glanced at the two of them, only to discover that their eyes did not change at all, let alone fear. Instead, there was a faint madness. How many years had they been living a very calm life? This kind of life filled with excitement was what they wanted.
“Young Master Ye, I’ve heard a lot about you. Nice to meet you!”
Just as Ye Feng was speaking, a young man held a wine cup in his hand and walked towards Ye Feng. His fat body trembled regularly as he walked.
Ye Feng was stunned. He did not seem to know this person. Why did he still walk towards him carelessly? The reason why Ye Feng participated in this banquet was because he took this opportunity to get to know the genius disciples of various powers and did not want to merge into it.
That was why he had been sitting at the side, drinking quietly and chatting with Gabon and Baiqiu.
“His name is Jia Wanguan. He is the son of Qin Cheng’s number one merchant, Jia Qian. He likes to make friends and doesn’t like to cultivate. Therefore, he has developed a lazy heart. However, his temper is not bad.”
Bai Qiu quickly whispered in Ye Feng’s ear. He still knew a little about some famous people in Qin Cheng, but he couldn’t get in touch with them at ordinary times.
“So it’s Brother Jia. I’ve heard so much about him!”
Ye Feng had no choice but to reveal a smile. He came over to chat, but Ye Feng did not look good to him.
This Jia Wanguan seemed to be familiar with him since he came here, and he almost said nothing to Ye Feng. He even told some of Qin Cheng’s secrets.
Wherever the woman was the most beautiful, where the food was the most delicious, and where it was the most fun, he shook it out one by one like a family treasure.
Ye Feng had no choice but to bite the bullet. Listening to him constantly recounting, his head was already on edge, but Bai Qiu told him that there was no harm in being able to get to know Jia Wanguan. If possible, it was best to be close. Most of the cultivation rooms in Qin Cheng were run by the Jia Clan, and one couldn’t avoid borrowing the cultivation room for the journey.
In the cultivation room, he could adjust his own time and gravity so that his cultivation could be doubled with half the effort. The Jia Clan relied on hundreds of cultivation rooms to forcefully squeeze into Qin Cheng’s heroic power.
What the Jia Clan understood the most was all sorts of mechanical techniques, formations, and changing the laws of the cultivation room, so no one was willing to offend the Jia Clan.
“Brother Ye, if you have the chance in the future, you might as well go to one of our Jia Clan’s houses. I will definitely sweep the bed and treat each other. I, Jia, someone likes to make friends with heroes and heroes the most.”
Jia Wanguan’s mouth was stuffed with fruits. He could not speak clearly, and his face was full of food. It was not too much for him to match his lazy body like a pig.
However, Ye Feng felt that such a person was extraordinary. The more ordinary the thing was, the more extraordinary it became. Although Jia Wanguan’s mouth was open, his pair of small eyes rolled, knowing what to say and what not to say.
“Definitely, definitely!”
Ye Feng had no choice but to agree until Bai Xuehui left and returned, which would free Ye Feng from the bitter sea, and he would not have to face Jia Wanguan who was full of grease.
“So Brother Jia is also here!”
Seeing Jia Wanguan chatting with Ye Feng, Bai Xuehui looked at Ye Feng with a strange expression, as if he had comprehended something.
“Brother Bai, you’re too polite. You guys continue. I’ll continue to chat with the others!”
Seeing that Bai Xuehui had returned, Jia Wanguan left with the wine glass in his hand. His fat body twisted and waved as he walked towards a young woman.
“Brother Ye, what did Jia Wanguan tell you?”
Bai Xuehui asked Ye Feng.
“Nothing much, just letting me have time to sit at their Jia Clan!”
Apart from this sentence, Ye Feng thought that all the words were nonsense.
