Guo Lingjuan tugged on Ye Tianze's sleeve and led him back to the Pill Hall.
"Kid, don't be afraid of him. You may have offended him today, but that doesn't mean he has the guts to play dirty tricks on you. A person like him still cares about the big picture," Guo Lingjuan said.
"Are you saying that I don't care about the big picture?" Ye Tianze asked angrily.
"That's not what I meant. But, you did a good job today and didn't embarrass the Pill Hall. If you encounter something like this in the future, don't back down!"
The old men laughed and returned to the main hall of the straw hut. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared.
"They are older than you. Why are you treating them like that?" Tangning was a little confused.
"Don't be fooled by their wrinkled faces. These old men are as smart as monkeys. They are using me as a knife!" Ye Tianze said angrily.
"Does that mean you knew they would show up?" Xiao Mo asked curiously.
"If they didn't show up, we would be looking for trouble if we went to the Vajra Hall." Ye Tianze laughed. "After this incident, the Pill Hall's prestige will be even greater than before. This is what these old men care about!"
While they were talking, an old man suddenly appeared at the foot of the mountain. Tangning looked at him and immediately bowed, "Greetings, Mountain Hall's Great Elder."
She emphasized the words' Mountain Hall '. She was obviously reminding Ye Tianze not to make any more enemies.
The Mountain Hall's Great Elder had a kind face. When he saw Xiao Mo about to bow, he quickly waved his hand and said, "No need, no need. This must be the new Deputy Hall Master of the Pill Hall, right?"
"Yes," Ye Tianze's face was cold.
"You are indeed young and capable. My disciple caused a ruckus and offended the Deputy Hall Master. I am here to apologize on behalf of my disciple." After speaking, the Mountain Hall's Great Elder took out an item and said, "This is the Green Dragon Egg. I am returning it to you."
Only then did Ye Tianze's expression ease up a little. After putting away the green wyrm egg, he said, "Grand Elder being so forthright is also out of my expectations."
"Haha, we were in the wrong first. It is only right for us to apologize. It is also right for us to return the Cyan Serpent Egg," said the Mountain Hall's First Elder.
When Xiao Mo and Tangning saw this scene, they were a little surprised. In any case, this was the Great Elder of the second Hall of the Five Halls. How could he be a kind person?
If it wasn't for the previous unyielding attitude, the First Elder probably wouldn't have come here, much less spit out the Green Serpent Egg that was already in his mouth.
"I won't pursue the previous matters. Please do as you wish, Great Elder." Ye Tianze raised his hand, looking like he was sending off a guest.
"Haha, there's no need to rush. The reason why I've come here today is because I have one more thing that I wish to inform you all of," said the Mountain Hall's First Elder.
"Oh, what's the matter?" Ye Tianze asked curiously.
"As for the remaining two Cyan Serpent Eggs, I advise Vice Pavilion Master not to take them. Just treat them as a gift to the First Elder of the Law Enforcement Hall," said the First Elder.
"What do you mean?" asked Ye Tianze.
"Because the First Elder of the Law Enforcement Hall is the future Sect Master," said the Mountain Hall's First Elder. "If you offend him, no one will have a good ending."
"Mm!" Ye Tianze fell silent.
He suddenly remembered Jin Wuji's last words. Whether or not he could take them back would depend on whether or not he had the ability.
Before Ye Tianze could ask, the Mountain Hall's First Elder suddenly took his leave, leaving behind a few people in a daze.
Tangning and Xiao Mo were also confused. The Sect Master had a total of two personal disciples. One had always been cultivating in the Shrine Bestowment Hall, and could be said to be the future Sect Master.
The other was naturally Qin Weiyang. Ever since she appeared, everyone thought she was a competitor.
Now that the Mountain Hall's First Elder suddenly said that the First Elder of the Law Enforcement Hall was the future Sect Master, and with such certainty, it made everyone ponder.
He didn't think too much about it. After sending Xiao Mo away, he returned to his straw hut with Tangning. However, he discovered that the straw hut was a completely different world.
There was also a space inside, but compared to the hall of the Pavilion Master and the Elders, it was a size smaller. However, it was enough for him to use alone.
Ye Tianze walked in and saw Qin Weiyang lying on the soft bed, not waking up yet. Only then did he let out a sigh of relief.
"Her body seems to have grown a little." Tangning's sharp senses detected that something was wrong.
If the previous Qin Weiyang was four or five years old, then the current Qin Weiyang was already seven or eight years old. She no longer looked like a child.
When Ye Tianze took a closer look, he discovered that the body Qin Weiyang had borrowed from the West King Tribe had actually grown into her previous appearance.
Even though she was only seven or eight years old, she was delicate and breathtakingly beautiful.
"When this little girl grows up, she will definitely shock the world." For Tangning to say something like this, it was obvious how attractive Qin Weiyang was at the moment. "Why do I feel like she doesn't resemble you at all?"
"Of course not. If she did, it wouldn't be good. After all, she's not my daughter!" Ye Tianze thought to himself. However, his mouth said, "She looks more like her mother!"
"Oh, her mother must be a peerless beauty. Otherwise, she wouldn't have given birth to such a beautiful girl!" Tangning's words had a hidden meaning.
Ye Tianze didn't understand. He thought she was trying to find out his secret, but he didn't know how to respond.
He could fabricate a perfect background for himself, but he couldn't fabricate a peerless wife.
Of course, in his previous life, he had a wife who wasn't inferior to Qin Weiyang. However, that was the person he hated the most!
Seeing the sadness between Ye Tianze's brows, Tangning felt a little uncomfortable. However, when she thought about it carefully, she felt an inexplicable sense of joy in her heart. She didn't even know where this joy came from, but it came from the bottom of her heart.
"By the way, how much do you know about the Head Elder of the Law Enforcement Hall?" Ye Tianze suddenly asked.
"I don't know much about him. However, he is very young and obeys the Sect Leader's orders. However, he is very fair in his dealings," Tangning said. "I've only seen him less than three times."
"Oh," Ye Tianze pondered.
"You better not offend him. Just like the Mountain Hall Head Elder said, it won't do you any good," Tangning reminded.
"If he obediently hands over the Green Serpent Egg, I won't provoke him. However, if he doesn't hand it over … haha!" Ye Tianze said coldly.
Tangning knew she couldn't change Ye Tianze's mind, so she didn't continue to persuade him.
"Why aren't you leaving yet?" Ye Tianze suddenly asked.
"Where to?" Tangning asked.
"At Cangwu Mountain. You and I are even now," Ye Tianze said. "You are now a free man."
"You!!!" Tangning said angrily. "You're burning the bridge after crossing the river!"
