Chapter 1585 - 1461: Thousand Extremes Sect
"Knock, knock, knock!"
At this moment, there was a sound of knocking at the door from outside the bedroom, followed by the voice of an official: "Miss Jian, a pair of siblings from the Hua Family are here to see you. They are just outside Han River Manor. Would you like to meet them?"
Siblings from the Hua Family?
Hua Yun’er? Hua Zhongxing? What are they here for? Jian Lingling was slightly taken aback.
Outside Han River Manor.
"Brother, do you think she’ll meet us?" Hua Yun’er said, looking worried.
At this moment, they were standing five hundred meters outside Han River Manor, but the Li Family’s security was too strong, they couldn’t even get close.
"I don’t know. You two have a better relationship. If you don’t know, how would I know?" Hua Zhongxing smiled helplessly, a hint of bitterness appearing on his face.
No longer possessing the confident charm he usually had, he appeared quite dejected.
"I... I don’t know either." Hua Yun’er’s fair face also showed a hint of helplessness, feeling very uncomfortable inside. "If she doesn’t want to see me, then life for our Hua Family would be difficult, and you’d lose the chance to compete for the Hua Family inheritance."
All of this was due to the Li Family. After the events of that night, the Li Family swiftly took action. First, they investigated what happened that night, then dealt with the Cui Family with thunderous means.
In the business world, political world, the Cui Family faced merciless suppression. No one could understand why the Li Family of Korea was so in awe of a young man from Huaxia.
The Hua Family also suffered some blows because they had offended Ye Qingfeng that night.
According to the Li Family, they were not courteous enough to the young man named Ye Qingfeng. Although Senior Qingfeng didn’t bother to hold it against them, the Li Family decided to handle it for him.
Thus, the Hua Family suddenly found life very difficult. Although the main target of suppression wasn’t the Hua Family, with the powerful influence of the Li Family, even a slight gesture from them could pressure the Hua Family to the point of being unable to hold their heads up.
"This is all my fault. If I hadn’t been hostile towards Ye Qingfeng and had pursued a friendship instead, perhaps it wouldn’t have turned out this way."
Hua Zhongxing sighed, shaking his head.
He felt very uncomfortable losing the chance to compete for the family’s inheritance. The siblings had also received severe punishment from their family.
"No, brother, it’s not your fault. You’ve always been upright and never targeted Ye Qingfeng. It’s me. When I first saw him, I thought he was someone who liked to brag, so I always disliked him. Little did I know—"
Hua Yun’er spoke, her face showing a hint of helplessness. Who could have imagined that this guy was actually telling the truth?
It was like your deskmate suddenly tells you one day that he is the richest person in the world and can buy your school anytime he wants.
It’s simply unbelievable! A fantasy!
The key was the way that guy spoke, arrogant, insolent, indifferent, completely unlike a true businessman or tycoon.
No facade, no social skills, no diplomatic abilities, no worldly finesse. How could such a cold, straightforward person build a huge empire?
That was the reason Hua Yun’er doubted Ye Qingfeng.
Hua Zhongxing’s expression dimmed slightly, unwilling to say more. Now, his heart was filled with endless regret. This man from Huaxia was completely beyond imagination.
If they had managed to please him initially, now perhaps they could have made friends with the Li Family, potentially changing not only their destinies but bringing tremendous benefits to the entire Hua Family.
At that moment, the gatekeeper received an order from a communicator and came over to say: "Alright, you can go in now. Miss Jian Lingling is willing to meet you!"
Hua Yun’er and Hua Zhongxing exchanged a glance, a hint of joy in their eyes. Regardless, being able to meet Jian Lingling was a great fortune for them; they had a chance to plead!
"Actually, you don’t have to do this. I can protect you." Kong Ningshuang said coldly, standing aside.
Ye Qingfeng looked towards that peerless face, feeling slightly chilly.
"Don’t misunderstand. I’m just returning a favor for you sending me the Panwu Immortal’s inheritance. It might not be enough, but it’s all I can do now."
Kong Ningshuang replied coldly.
"No need. Just remember to send me your Mid-Grade Spirit Stone." Ye Qingfeng shook his head, his eyes slightly narrowing,
"I only want to trust myself and won’t put my life and death in others’ hands."
This guy—Kong Ningshuang felt a stir in her heart. Ye Qingfeng was truly self-centered, conceited, and arrogant!
"Let’s go back to East River City first!"
Ye Qingfeng embraced Kong Ningshuang, stepped onto the Futu Sword, and flew into the sky.
Ye Qingfeng flew all the way, but not at the fastest speed. Now, within Huaxia, Wan Potian could appear at any moment, so Ye Qingfeng had to remain in top condition.
After flying for two hours, as Ye Qingfeng stood on the Flying Sword, his body suddenly paused, and the Futu Sword hovered in midair.
"What’s wrong with you?" Kong Ningshuang was slightly taken aback. "Are you still worried about Wan Potian? I told you, don’t worry, I’ll protect you."
Ye Qingfeng did not answer. Although Wan Potian was formidable, he had the power to protect himself and did not need Kong Ningshuang to worry.
The Futu Sword suddenly descended, controlled by Ye Qingfeng’s Divine Sense, it fell rapidly.
Ye Qingfeng’s heart surged with emotions, feeling a rush of blood. The speed of the Futu Sword reached its maximum, directly landing at the foot of a mountain.
"What are you doing?" Kong Ningshuang couldn’t help but ask.
Ye Qingfeng didn’t respond. He felt his heart suddenly skip a beat and start to throb intensely. With his spirit and will so resolute, his soul was that of the Nine Tribulations Immortal Venerable.
And this agitation was coming from his Space Ring and furthermore, from the peak of this mountain!
Ye Qingfeng remained silent, directly walking towards the mountain peak. Kong Ningshuang’s lovely face turned icy, feeling intense irritation. This guy was too indifferent.
She bit her silver teeth lightly. Naturally, Kong Ningshuang still followed along. Wan Potian could appear at any moment, and she had to stay to protect Ye Qingfeng.
Thinking about it was truly suffocating. It was supposed to be her protecting him, yet he acted more arrogant than she was. Kong Ningshuang was speechless, feeling she was truly being too indulgent!
But for the sake of Panwu Immortal’s inheritance, she endured it.
Approaching the mountain top, several palace buildings rose from the ground, surrounded by wisps of clouds, rolling fog enshrouding, it seemed like a paradise.
In front of the buildings, there stood an ancient stele, diagonally inserted into the ground, with traces of cracks, yet exuding a sense of ancient times, like relics from the prehistoric era.
"Thousand Extremes Sect!"
Three large characters were engraved on it.
At this moment, several young men stood before the Thousand Extremes Sect, with hundreds of disciples from the sect standing opposite them. Among them were familiar faces to Ye Qingfeng, like Yuan Qingning and Kuang Xuan, the top disciple of Thousand Extremes Sect.
