Ye Nanshan’s old face turned red! The speed at which he got slapped in the face made him feel extremely awkward.
“Ye Feng, Elder Liuli is here! Why aren’t you getting up already!” Ye Nanshan quickly changed the topic and shouted loudly at Ye Feng.
At that moment, Ye Feng was still immersed in surprise.
Just now, he had discovered a shocking secret—the Lying-Flat System could actually recycle spirit stones. And one mid-grade spirit stone was worth 100 Lying-Flat Points!
After recycling all 10 mid-grade spirit stones that Lin Xian’er had returned to him, Ye Feng’s Lying-Flat Points had soared to 1,190.
“One step closer to taking down Martial Elder and embarking on the path of lying flat!” With a sigh of admiration, Ye Feng finally opened his eyes and saw Ye Nanshan’s flushed face along with the crowd standing behind him.
“So this is Elder Liuli?” Ye Feng glanced at the imposing woman behind Ye Nanshan and made his guess. But what caught his attention even more was the gentle-looking woman beside Elder Liuli, whose expression was complicated. If he guessed correctly, this should be the Saintess of the Moonshade Sect—Yue Wu.
In that instant, countless thoughts raced through Ye Feng’s mind.
Then, under the stunned gazes of the crowd, Ye Feng rolled over, turned his back toward everyone, and said casually, “Let’s talk tomorrow if there’s anything.” He added indifferently, “Don’t bother me while I sleep.”
According to the original novel, Elder Liuli was someone who valued pride and reputation above all. Ignoring her like this would surely make Elder Liuli turn around and leave!
Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard Ye Feng’s words.
Elder Liuli, a big figure from the Moonshade Sect, had personally come to visit a so-called useless disciple of the Ye Family, only to be looked down upon? And even dismissed?
The young geniuses in the back of the crowd were fuming.
They wanted to strangle Ye Feng and take his place.
They had exhausted every means to get their names mentioned by their patriarchs in front of Elder Liuli.
But here, Elder Liuli had delivered herself to Ye Feng’s door—and Ye Feng acted like this?
Truly ungrateful!
“This guy is too arrogant! It’s said that Elder Liuli is already at the early stage Martial King Realm. How could a powerhouse like her tolerate such humiliation?”
“Courting death! I guarantee this brat won’t live past today. The Ye Family better prepare his coffin!”
“Hmph, does he still think he’s the once-famous genius of Martial Refinement City? If Elder Liuli doesn’t slap him to death, I’ll take his surname!”
Jealous and bitter, many young geniuses ridiculed Ye Feng with harsh words. Ye Feng, however, didn’t care in the slightest. In the original plot, Elder Liuli was a person of principle and strict rules. No matter how much she disliked someone, as long as they didn’t make a mistake, she wouldn’t act rashly.
Ye Nanshan, standing to the side, was on the verge of tears. If he could go back in time, he would’ve rather borne Li Changfeng’s revenge than let Elder Liuli meet Ye Feng. Visit g.com for the full chapter.
Offending a personal disciple of the Moonshade Sect still left a sliver of hope for the Ye Family.
But offending an elder of the Moonshade Sect meant complete annihilation, no chance of recovery.
He wanted to explain on Ye Feng’s behalf, but when he opened his mouth, no words came out.
Everyone was waiting for Elder Liuli to explode in anger and punish Ye Feng.
But what they didn’t know was that Elder Liuli’s heart was already churning with waves of emotion.
The dazzling golden light of fortune surrounding Ye Feng had nearly blinded her titanium-alloy old eyes! The total fortune of the entire Moonshade Sect wasn’t even a thousandth of the fortune Ye Feng carried.
One had to know, the Moonshade Sect’s fortune was the combined destiny of tens of thousands of martial cultivators.
But under the brilliance of Ye Feng’s fortune, Elder Liuli’s vision stung painfully from using her Qi Observation Technique, and tears actually rolled down her cheeks.
Only when she stopped the technique did the pain in her eyes subside.
But the people around her were dumbfounded.
Everyone had been waiting for her to punish Ye Feng—why was she crying instead?
Could it be Ye Feng had angered her to the point of tears?
The thought of an early-stage Martial King powerhouse being reduced to tears by a late-stage Martial Apprentice youth brought a strange look to everyone’s face.
What they didn’t know was that at this moment, Elder Liuli had made a firm decision—no matter what, she would recruit Ye Feng into the Moonshade Sect, even if it cost a great price!
As long as Ye Feng joined, with such overwhelming fortune, the Moonshade Sect was guaranteed to rise again—maybe even become the number one sect in the Great Qin Empire!
As for Ye Feng’s disrespect?
Elder Liuli had long thrown it to the back of her mind.
A monstrous talent with heaven-piercing fortune having a strange temper was perfectly normal. If it meant getting Ye Feng into the Moonshade Sect, Elder Liuli wouldn’t even mind kneeling to him right now.
Noticing the crowd’s strange expressions and the tears at the corners of her eyes, Elder Liuli’s gaze shifted as she quickly came up with an idea.
“Yes!” she suddenly exclaimed. “Exactly like him!”
Hearing this, the crowd finally understood.
No wonder Elder Liuli was acting this way—it was because Ye Feng’s appearance reminded her of her late grandson.
The crowd’s gaze toward Ye Feng now held a trace of envy.
No one expected Ye Feng to be this lucky. Not only would he survive, he’d probably gain a tremendous benefit.
The few young people who had just mocked Ye Feng quietly stepped back, afraid Ye Feng might settle scores with them later.
Only Yue Wu looked at Elder Liuli with confusion.
As the Saintess, she was very familiar with the elders of the sect. As far as she knew, Elder Liuli had no children, let alone grandchildren. She had even once loudly proclaimed, “Emotions only slow down my sword-drawing speed.”
So where did this grandson come from?
Elder Liuli pretended not to notice the reactions around her. With a forced smile on her aged face, she stepped forward and spoke toward Ye Feng’s back.
“Ye Feng, are you willing to take me as your master and become a personal disciple of the Moonshade Sect?”
Everyone around her gasped when they heard Elder Liuli’s words. Their eyes turned green with envy as they stared at Ye Feng.
Many young geniuses ground their teeth with envy and hatred. Ye Nanshan also let out a sigh of relief. Deep inside, he marveled at how blessed Ye Feng truly was.
Only Ye Feng, still lying with his back to them, felt speechless. In the original novel, the reason Elder Liuli accepted the son of fate Ye Feng as a disciple had been glossed over. Even Ye Feng himself didn’t know the reason.
But now, looking at Elder Liuli, Ye Feng knew that unless he gave a decent excuse for rejecting her, this old woman wouldn’t give up.
Helpless, Ye Feng slowly stood up and asked, “What benefits are there in becoming a personal disciple of the Moonshade Sect?”
Everyone around was left speechless at Ye Feng’s unwilling tone.
The sect master of the Moonshade Sect and the ten great elders could each take only one personal disciple. In other words, the Moonshade Sect had only 11 personal disciples—each one was a core pillar of the sect.
Yet this late-stage Martial Apprentice nobody was acting like the Moonshade Sect was begging him.
But to everyone’s astonishment, Elder Liuli showed no anger at all. Instead, she gave Ye Feng a big thumbs-up.
“Good, good, good!”
“Not arrogant, not impatient—carefully considers his choices!”
“In terms of mindset, no one among the younger generation can compare to you!”
