Fourth-grade Spirit Artifacts, fifth-grade Spirit Artifacts, fourth-grade techniques, third-grade spirit pills, fourth-grade spirit pills!
Every one of these treasures was something the martial artists of Yuanyue City could only have dreamed of!
Now, all Qin An had to do was nod, and these treasures would immediately belong to him.
What was even more astonishing was that the Master of Xiaoyao Pavilion had actually promised to take Qin An on as a personal disciple.
To become the personal disciple of the Xiaoyao Pavilion Master — this was an absolute, earth-shattering rise to prominence!
From this moment on, his status would be incomparably exalted!
The four great families of Yuanyue City would be like mere ants in Qin An's presence.
On the arena platform, the four elders all stared at Qin An, awaiting his answer.
As for Ye Yunfei, he was utterly ignored.
"Elder Ding, I choose to join Xiaoyao Pavilion!"
Qin An took a deep breath, rapidly weighing his options in his mind, then spoke decisively.
After all, the conditions offered by Xiaoyao Pavilion were the most enticing!
"Hahaha, excellent, excellent! Qin An, from this moment on, you are a Core Disciple of our Xiaoyao Pavilion."
Elder Ding was overjoyed.
The other three elders could only shake their heads and sigh, feeling regretful.
"Hahaha, Ye Tianpeng, do you see?
So what if your good-for-nothing son won temporarily?
The elders of the Four Great Sects still favor my son An'er.
Thus, a genius will always be a genius, and trash will always be trash!"
The events on the platform made Qin Xiong laugh heartily with pride.
"Brother Qin, you are absolutely right. Trash will always be trash, don't delude yourself into thinking you can rise above your station!"
Shi Tianyuan spoke in a sarcastic tone.
Lu Yunxiao, the City Lord of Yuanyue City, also let out a sigh of relief.
Qin An had joined Xiaoyao Pavilion and even become the Pavilion Master's personal disciple.
The exaltation of his status was simply unimaginable.
Ye Yunfei and the Ye Family would never have a chance to turn things around!
This proved that their choice to support the Qin Family was completely correct!
Ye Tianpeng's brow furrowed tightly.
Qin An had indeed soared to the heavens now.
Inevitably, from here on out, the Ye Family would face even greater suppression!
Back on the platform.
"Ye Yunfei, I told you, in front of me, you will always be trash!
From now on, you will only be able to look up at me from afar!
If I want to crush you, it will be as easy as crushing an ant! Understand?!"
At this moment, looking down at Ye Yunfei from his position of superiority, Qin An cast him a sidelong glance and spoke coldly.
"You?
Right now, I can annihilate you with one move.
In the future, it will still only take me one move to annihilate you.
What gives you the right to prance around before me?"
Ye Yunfei's face held an expression of utter disdain.
"Impudence!
Qin An is now the Pavilion Master's personal disciple, his status is beyond compare.
How dare a mere insect like you profane his honor?
Apologize immediately.
Otherwise, death!"
Elder Ding's sharp gaze locked onto Ye Yunfei, murderous intent flashing within.
As soon as her words fell, a terrifying surge of energy and pressure radiated from her body, mighty and unstoppable as it swept towards Ye Yunfei.
To her, killing a young master from a small family in a small city was no different than killing an ant.
"Ye Yunfei, did you hear that? Kneel down and apologize to me right now!"
Qin An was immensely pleased with himself.
This feeling was just too good for him!
"I, Qin An, have completely and utterly risen!
Did you see? The slightest disrespect shown towards me now could lead to death!"
Qin An's heart was exhilarated beyond description, his body trembling uncontrollably.
"Ye Yunfei is in trouble.
Qin An definitely won't let him off now!"
"If Ye Yunfei wants to survive, his only choice is to obediently kneel and kowtow, begging Qin An for mercy."
…
At this moment, every single person in the entire square had their eyes fixed on Ye Yunfei, shaking their heads inwardly.
"Is the personal disciple of some Xiaoyao Pavilion Master really that great?
Even if your Pavilion Master were here, he wouldn't be worthy of a single kowtow from me.
How much less Qin An."
Under the collective gaze of the crowd, Ye Yunfei spoke slowly.
What?!
As soon as Ye Yunfei's words left his mouth, the entire square fell into stunned, bewildered silence.
To dare say such words in front of Elder Ding...
This was tantamount to suicide!
"Damned fool!
You dare profane the dignity of my Xiaoyao Pavilion? The penalty is death!"
In an instant, Elder Ding flew into a furious rage.
A boy from a minor family in a backwater city actually dared to show disrespect to the exalted Xiaoyao Pavilion — this was equivalent to offending the Heavenly Might itself.
In her heart, Elder Ding had already pronounced the death sentence on Ye Yunfei!
Boom…
She brandished the horsetail whisk in her hand, unleashing a surge of terrifying spiritual energy like a long river towards Ye Yunfei.
"How horrifying!"
The martial artists close to the platform who felt the power of this spiritual energy were frightened out of their wits, scrambling desperately to move away.
"Fei'er, hurry and apologize!"
Ye Tianpeng's face paled with fright.
"Ye Yunfei, you are dead.
It's a pity that I won't have the chance to kill you with my own hands."
Qin An's icy gaze was fixed on Ye Yunfei as if looking at a dead man.
Rumble…
The horsetail whisk slammed down towards Ye Yunfei as heavily as a colossal mountain.
At the critical moment…
Swoosh!
Ye Yunfei lightly tapped his toes against the ground, using the force to propel himself backward.
In a flash, he retreated over two hundred meters.
If Ye Yunfei went all out, he could stride over three hundred meters in a single step.
A distance of over two hundred meters was ridiculously easy for him.
Boom…
Elder Ding's horsetail whisk blasted a massive crater into the surface of the arena platform.
"He actually dodged it!"
Someone cried out in shock.
"Ye Yunfei, you actually dared to dodge!
Fine! You've successfully provoked me.
Now, not only will you die, your entire family will also be annihilated!"
Elder Ding said grimly, her voice saturated with boundless killing intent.
"Old nun, I'm afraid it's you who will die.
Although you are a woman by birth, you insisted on cultivating a purely Yang, domineering technique. Moreover, you cultivated it incorrectly.
You ended up with rampant Fire Qi and turbulent spiritual energy within your body.
In order to suppress this internal Fire Qi, you have been taking Snowfrost Yin Pills for a long time.
Unexpectedly, not only did you fail to suppress it successfully, but your body also accumulated a significant amount of Yin Qi.
As a result, Yin and Yang fell out of harmony, leading to constant Yin-Yang conflict. This is why every night, your body alternates between feeling intensely cold and scorching hot.
I’d wager you haven't had a single good night's sleep in years.
Moreover, your temper has become increasingly volatile."
Ye Yunfei fixed Elder Ding with a mocking gaze and spoke slowly.
In that instant, Elder Ding was utterly dumbstruck, standing there in a daze.
Because every single thing Ye Yunfei had said was absolutely true!
But these symptoms… only she herself was aware of them!
This was her greatest secret!
"Who exactly are you?!
How do you know all this?!"
Elder Ding stared at Ye Yunfei, her expression deathly serious.
"Heh, I am Ye Yunfei.
As for how I know, does it matter?
What matters is that your condition of alternating between hot and cold chills has become increasingly severe over the past six months.
I suspect you must have already sought medical treatment everywhere, but absolutely no one in the entire Great Qin Empire can help you resolve this problem.
Hmm, let me calculate… you probably only have about a year and a half left to live.
A year and a half from now, you will die."
Ye Yunfei blinked his eyes.
"As it happens, I know someone who can save you."
Ye Yunfei continued.
"Who?
Who can save me? Tell me, quickly!"
Elder Ding's body trembled, and she let out a frantic cry, visibly agitated.
Any concerns about the dignity of Xiaoyao Pavilion, killing Ye Yunfei, or annihilating the Ye Family had already been completely forgotten.
What could possibly be more important than her own life?
"Me.
I can save you.
But… why should I save you?"
Ye Yunfei pointed at himself, his face full of mockery.
