"The ancient Zixiao sword? I took it to the weapon shop to find Boss Chang, and it has been melted..." Ye Zifeng put down some packages he was carrying, and replied calmly.
Quiet, silent as if there was no sound, the air seemed to freeze in an instant.
"What? You melted the sword?" Ye Chongtian swallowed deeply, his neck stiffened in excessive surprise, his eyes were straightened, and he could only see the tip of his nose.
Ye Xueyi's pretty face changed color with horror, and she was silent for a long time, unable to even speak.
The father and daughter looked at each other, and they came back to their senses.
"Brother Zifeng, you're joking, you're fine, why did you melt the sword?" Ye Xueyi didn't believe her brother's statement.
Any normal person would not treat this sword, which symbolized the first place in the Ladder Conference, as scrap iron and melt it down.
Ye Zifeng looked at them solemnly: "What I said is true. Tomorrow morning, this matter will surely spread from Boss Chang to the whole Leizhou City."
There was an unspeakable seriousness in his eyes, definitely not like he was lying, but how could such an outrageous thing be convincing
"Zifeng, let me ask you again, did you really melt down the ancient Zixiao sword?" Ye Chongtian calmed down his emotions, and managed to say the whole sentence word by word.
"I think I've made it very clear that I have already melted the ancient Zixiao sword." Ye Zifeng's expression was extremely dull. Sooner or later, Ye Zhongtian and the others will know about this matter, so there is no need to hide it.
After Ye Chongtian heard the words, his face turned pale, his chest felt tight with anger, and he almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.
He forced himself to calm down: "Zifeng, I know that you won this ladder meeting by yourself. Our Ye family is proud of you, and the ancient Zixiao sword will naturally be at your disposal. But, you Rather, why did you melt down such a good sword? What is your plan?"
Ye Zifeng smiled lightly and said: "Isn't this good? Let everyone in the city know that the Ye family's useless young man has become a crazy young man. He acts on the spur of the moment, and it is difficult to achieve great things."
"You..." Ye Zhongtian looked at him blankly, as if something was strung together in his mind.
Ye Zifeng continued to laugh and said: "The so-called tree is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it. This time I shined in the Leizhou City Stairway Conference, and I must have suffered the hatred of many people. If I am proud of my talent, I will be so proud of myself on weekdays." And with an ancient Zixiao sword to show off my prestige, guess what those people will do when they see me unhappy? Maybe they will lurk in the dark and find an opportunity to teach me a lesson."
Ye Xueyi pondered for a moment with a little understanding, and said softly: "So, brother Zifeng, you melted the ancient Zixiao sword in order to make people around you look down on you and lower their wariness of you."
"That's right, that's right." Ye Zifeng nodded with a smile, actually this was just an excuse, the real reason, of course, was to advance to the alchemy furnace. But for the time being, he still doesn't want others to know about it.
"This... so that's the case, Zifeng, I didn't expect you to think about things so deeply at such a young age. I should also reflect on it... How will the Ye family embark on the road of revival in the future!"
Ye Zhongtian calmed down for a while, and began to ponder in his heart. Relying on Ye Zifeng's outstanding performance in the Ladder Conference, the Ye family undoubtedly ushered in a turning point, but as Ye Zifeng said, the Ye family still has a long way to go before the real revitalization...
At least, the Wang family and the Liu family will not sit back and watch them rise again, because the resources of Leizhou City are limited, and the rise of the Ye family means that they will seize their family's existing share.
"Zifeng, let's forget about your melting sword, and I won't comment any more. From tomorrow onwards, I will personally teach you a unique skill of the Ye family, and the resources of the Ye family will also be inclined to you in the future. As long as you say If so, there's nothing I can't do for you, Dad!"
"Is this true?"
Ye Zhongtian laughed loudly: "I always do what I say."
Ye Zifeng's eyes brightened: "It's not necessary to teach the unique knowledge, but, father, is there a way for me to get some contribution rewards from the Wufu?" As a Wuzong, he has rich experience, and he really doesn't need a person in the Wuling realm in martial arts. guide yourself.
"You want to exchange something?" Ye Zhongtian gave him a slightly surprised look.
Ye Zifeng nodded with a smile: "It's not impossible for me to forcibly get some reward points from Wufu, but I don't want to bother others because of such a trivial matter."
"Can you forcefully earn reward points? Besides, who do you want to trouble? Who can you trouble?" Ye Zhongtian became more and more surprised when he heard it. Students want to get reward points, only through the Wufu mission once a month, how can my son still have a way to forcefully get points.
Ye Zifeng smiled mysteriously, but did not answer. Elder Shen and Elder Zhao's spiritual thoughts were still imprisoned in his mind. If he really wanted to get some points, it would not be too difficult, but if he asked Shen Li and Elder Zhao, they would definitely Curious about what he would do with these points, it would be a bit like getting himself into trouble.
"Okay, isn't it just to get some reward points? I'll just tell my acquaintances in Wufu to help you clear the way. Speaking of which, how many points do you want?"
"Let's start with a hundred points." Ye Zifeng wanted to make the Spirit Binding Pill, and continue to strengthen the control of the soul's divine sense. After all, the effectiveness of the Binding Pill was limited, and he had to swallow another pill before it expired, at least before he went to Tiandao City to participate in the Pill Fighting Competition.
Only in this way can Ye Zifeng keep in touch with the two master fighters. If there is any change, Elder Zhao and Elder Shen will naturally rush out to help. Therefore, the two of them will be Ye Zifeng's last year. Good bodyguard!
"Okay, if it's just a hundred points, it shouldn't be too difficult... I'll figure out a way for you and give you the point token as soon as possible."
Ye Chongtian heaved a sigh of relief. Recently, he was taken aback by Ye Zifeng's unexpected words, and occasionally heard him say an ordinary number, but he was not used to it.
"Thank you dad."
"By the way, Zifeng, I actually thought of a way before you came back just now. This is a way to make the Ye family return to one of the three major families in Leizhou City as soon as possible, but..." Ye Zhongtian was a little hesitant , I don't know if I should really say it.
"It's just what..." Ye Zifeng had a bad premonition in his heart.
"Actually, it's the marriage between you and Liu Ningzi, the second miss of the Liu family... I think, if the two of you can get together..."
Ye Zifeng snorted coldly: "So it's a good way to win over the Liu family through marriage. But I've made it clear today that even if Liu Ningzi bullied me like that, she wanted to be my concubine. I won't agree either."
Ye Xueyi's pretty face was also cold, and she said angrily: "Even, don't talk about Brother Zifeng, I won't agree! When Liu Ningzi came to the door to withdraw the engagement that day, Dad, you didn't see how fierce she is."
Ye Chongtian's heart trembled, he thought this is your brother's marriage, no matter how much he objected, it was your brother's objection, it doesn't matter if you Xueyi agree or not.
"Actually, the second lady of the Liu family is beautiful and delicious. You can marry her first. If you are really dissatisfied, you can divorce her after a few years..."
Ye Chongtian laughed, obviously knowing that his son would not be persuaded so easily by him, so he thought of this kind of hurtful move.
"Impossible, this matter involves my bottom line, so don't bring it up again in the future." Ye Zifeng's eyes showed a trace of determination, and there was even a hint of anger when he spoke.
Ye Zhongtian sighed heavily: "This... okay."
Obviously he is the head of the Ye family, but recently he has been facing Ye Zifeng, and he always feels that he is slightly inferior in momentum.
…
The second day after the Sky Ladder Conference, when Ye Zifeng reappeared in Wufu, he had already become the focus of everyone's attention, because he was the number one among the young talents of the Leizhou City Sky Ladder Conference, and he even won the final prize. Among them, Liu Bingqian, who defeated the ninth level of Qi refining, helped the Ye family win the title of the first family.
The name of waste wood has become a thing of the past, Ye Zifeng justified his own name and his family's name, and became a well-deserved young leader in Leizhou City.
However, compared to what happened at the Ladder Conference yesterday, there is another thing that interests everyone more, which is about the ancient sword of Zixiao.
"Have you ever heard that Ye Zifeng melted down the ancient Zixiao sword, you see, he really didn't bring it with him today."
"Melting the ancient sword? Really, tell me, is there something wrong with his mind?"
"Crazy Ye, really Crazy Ye, from now on everyone don't call him Ye Dafei, just call him Ye Dafeng..."
Ye Xueyi listened to the voices scolding Ye Zifeng all around, and at the same time she smiled sweetly, a bright color flashed in her beautiful eyes.
"Brother Zifeng, what you said is indeed true. Those people got the news today and called you crazy."
Ye Zifeng smiled indifferently: "At the ladder meeting, many of them were full of anger, envious or jealous, we must give them some chances to vent, so as not to overwhelm them, and seize the opportunity to treat me later. Big fight."
"So, brother Zifeng, are you afraid that they will attack you?"
Ye Zifeng shook his head and smiled indifferently: "I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid. If I spend all my time on meaningless battles with them, how can I improve my level? I have been stuck at the fourth level of Qi Refining for the ladder meeting, and I haven't advanced much. Now that it is empty, I can't drag it any longer... "
At this time, a burst of murderous aura swept from both sides of Ye Zifeng.
Ye Zifeng raised his head slightly, and continued: "But it seems that even if I have tried my best to resolve everyone's dissatisfaction, there are some people, I'm afraid, I still can't get around it."
Wang Tianzhi, who became famous when he was young, if it wasn't for the dark horse Ye Zifeng, there is no doubt that the laurels of yesterday's ladder competition belonged to him.
Right now, he is standing in front of Ye Zifeng, and there are two other people beside him: Wang Mengxi and Wang Ruoxing, one on the left and one on the right.
As for Wang Lin, Xiao Mu and the others, they all stepped aside like a clown at this time, not daring to jump out to provoke trouble. After all, Ye Zifeng was someone who could defeat even Liu Bingqian who was at the peak of the Ninth Level of Qi Refining, so it was not an easy task to deal with them.
When Ye Zifeng was in the limelight, only Wang Tianzhi was the one who dared to stand up against him.
"Ye Zifeng, we have been waiting for you for a long time."
