Chapter 1651 - 1527: The Price
"I heard someone say you found a man, I was afraid you’d be in danger, so as soon as I got back to the village, I hurried over," Zhou Peng quickly said, then looked at Ye Qingfeng.
Seeing Ye Qingfeng’s body covered in scars, Zhou Peng’s pupils suddenly shrank.
"Who are you?" Zhou Peng exclaimed in shock.
He stared coldly at Ye Qingfeng, his eyes showing a hint of vigilance.
Extremely wary. "Brother Zhou Peng, what’s wrong with you? Brother Feng is the one I saved, he’s not a bad person." Ling Yanchen quickly explained.
"Not a bad person? There’s no writing on a bad person’s face. With all those wounds, he can’t be a good person!" Zhou Peng stared at Ye Qingfeng, said vigilantly.
"This was because Brother Feng got into a fight and accidentally fell and got hurt!"
"A fight? Who can get this injured in a fight? He’s definitely not a good person, maybe he’s provoked some big shot from an underground force and got chased here!"
Zhou Peng’s analysis was reasonable, staring at Ye Qingfeng with dissatisfaction.
"Yanchen, quickly send this person away!"
"Brother Zhou Peng, these are all your assumptions, how can you speak so recklessly, let’s wait until Brother Feng recovers." Yanchen said.
Just now, when she was cleaning Ye Qingfeng’s body, he endured the pain with a calm face, showing that he was a very resilient man.
Ling Yanchen felt he probably wasn’t a bad person.
"No, his origins are unknown, we must get rid of him!" Zhou Peng said angrily.
"Brother Zhou Peng, this is my matter, it’s not up to you to decide!" Ling Yanchen was also angry, said somewhat peeved.
Zhou Peng still wanted to speak, but Ling Yanchen slowly pushed him out, saying: "Alright, you go back first, don’t worry about me!"
Zhou Peng had no choice but to leave reluctantly.
"Brother Feng, I’m sorry. Brother Zhou Peng means well, he’s just worried about me." Ling Yanchen said somewhat apologetically.
"He just likes you, keeping a man at home makes him uneasy, which is very normal." Ye Qingfeng gently shook his head.
"Ah." Ling Yanchen’s pretty face blushed slightly, a bit flustered, she fiddled with the hem of her clothes, "That’s not it, I only consider Brother Zhou Peng as an older brother."
Ye Qingfeng didn’t say much more, he didn’t care about these things.
He lay down directly, closing his eyes, silently waiting for his body to recover. He couldn’t even cultivate now, he could only quietly wait for his body to heal itself.
Yanjing.
To everyone’s surprise, Wan Potian did not directly attack those families close to Ye Qingfeng.
He seemed disinterested in these families.
However, Wan Potian still spread the word that these families were no longer suitable to stay in Yanjing.
The deeper meaning was self-evident, and some families understood Wan Potian’s intention and began to secretly suppress them first.
Wan Potian made his statement, which was a done deal. Even if he didn’t personally act, these families would eventually be driven out of Yanjing.
And in the entertainment circle, during this time, Yun Xi was also in the limelight.
She won the Grammy Music Award, the first Huaxia winner, and this award was enough to excite Huaxia’s netizens.
The Grammy is a top world music award, never been won by a Huaxia musician before. There are cultural reasons, strength reasons, and of course, political factors.
Yun Xi’s win at the Grammy spoke volumes about how moving her music was, leaving people awestruck.
It was her music that conquered the Grammy judges, bringing ancient style, Huaxia flair to the world.
Sitting on the plane, Yun Xi gently touched the ancient zither in her hands, this was a gift from Ye Qingfeng, and it was because of this instrument she won the Grammy.
This zither seemed to have a special magic, able to fully display one’s music, drawing people into a ethereal, enchanting state.
"Yun Xi, that’s great, because of this Grammy, all the online controversies about you are finally over, netizens’ opinions have also improved." Sister Wang said happily beside her.
"That Ye Qingfeng is really too reckless, he almost ruined your career. Fortunately, you used your strength to win the Grammy, bringing honor to the country!"
A Grammy is akin to the Cannes of film festivals, the Nobel in academia, it signifies Huaxia’s music stepping out into the world.
Whether people like the West or not, having a Grammy makes music more readily accepted worldwide and able to convey cultural influence.
"It’s not me, but thanks to it." Yun Xi gave a light smile, "This zither was a gift from Ye Qingfeng."
Seeing Yun Xi’s expression, Sister Wang shook her head, saying: "You’re really enchanted by this Ye Qingfeng."
"Who wouldn’t be? He’s just so charming." Yun Xi’s lips pouted.
Ye Qingfeng lay in bed, his injuries finally showing some improvement, just enough to move freely.
He had come to understand a little about this place, it was a remote village in the Southwest Region of the Eastern Base, it wasn’t part of East River City.
Ye Qingfeng speculated that Ling Yanchen must have come to East River City to seek medical treatment for her father, as East River City was the most developed city in the Southwest Region of the Eastern Base.
"In a few more days, I will be able to use my Divine Sense, and then I can use elixirs, combine it with cultivation to restore my body."
"Ancient Martial World! When I step into the Ancient Martial World, it will be the day you sects pay the price, Good and Evil Envoys! I want you to be obliterated!"
Murderous intent flashed in Ye Qingfeng’s eyes, cold-blooded beyond compare.
The thing he hated most was the Luosheng Sect in the Ancient Martial World and the Good and Evil Envoys.
One caused the death of Shui Yiyi, the other captured Ye Bufan.
"More than revenge, reviving Yiyi is what’s most important to me. A mere Ancient Martial World, I can shatter sooner or later, but reviving someone is extremely difficult."
What puzzled Ye Qingfeng was this body.
This body clearly had no bloodline, yet it could absorb the essence of other treasures and enhance its own bloodline, and the foundation of every realm was extremely solid, almost perfect.
Could it be the influence of the Devouring Sky Pearl?
"What exactly is affecting my body? Or is this body inherently very special?" Ye Qingfeng murmured to himself.
With all his knowledge and cultivation, he couldn’t see through himself, and the Yin Yang Dragon Fish Jade Pendant, and that ancient stele, these things were also beyond Ye Qingfeng’s understanding.
"These are all the foundations for me to break through to the War God Realm and even higher realms. These supernatural things on Earth, I must discover all!" Ye Qingfeng muttered, a faint momentum quietly emanating from him.
"Brother Feng"
At this moment, a crisp voice sounded, it was Ling Yanchen coming in.
