"Senior Martial Uncle, Senior Martial Uncle!"
At this moment, a respectful greeting came from outside. Ye Xuan looked up and saw an old man in a black and white Taoist robe and a young man in a blue shirt, who had his hair down to cover one of his eyes, walking in with his hands behind his back.
They were indeed father and son. Both of them acted like I was the best in the world. Their nostrils were so high that they almost reached the sky.
Seeing Shi Jian and his son, everyone present stood up to greet them, except for Ye Xuan, who was still sitting calmly on his seat.
As soon as Shi Jian came in, Ye Xuan had already seen through his cultivation level. He was a little higher than Lin Fengjiao, at the Middle-stage of Void Return. He could be regarded as the Senior Martial Brother here. However, in Ye Xuan's eyes, such a low cultivation level was not enough for him. Moreover, he already knew that if nothing went wrong, Shi Jian would be his enemy in the future. There was no need for him to fawn over his future enemy.
Seeing Shi Jian's arrival, Lin Fengjiao smiled with her two disciples and said, "Senior Martial Brother!"
However, Shi Jian only glanced at Lin Fengjiao. He neither nodded nor said anything, as if Lin Fengjiao in front of him was air. He directly walked past Lin Fengjiao and casually sat down on Lin Fengjiao's original seat.
Seeing Shi Jian ignore her, Lin Fengjiao was a little angry, no matter how good-tempered she was. However, she was the host today, and there were many disciples here, so Lin Fengjiao couldn't do anything. She quickly suppressed her anger.
No one knew if it was because of Shi Jian's status as the Eldest Senior Brother, or because of his stern and self-righteous expression, but after Shi Jian's arrival, the relaxed atmosphere in the hall suddenly became oppressive.
"This time, you used our sect's summon order to summon me. What's the matter?" Shi Jian had just sat down, and after glancing at everyone present, he put on a poker face and said.
Everyone was speechless, and their gazes fell on Lin Fengjiao. Lin Fengjiao had no choice but to say again, "Eldest Senior Brother, this matter was caused by two of my useless disciples. During the Heavenly Ghost Festival two days ago, they accidentally collided with the Ghost Messengers, causing many wandering ghosts to escape. I've already dealt with the Ghost Messengers, but there are a lot of wandering ghosts. I need all of you to help me subdue them and return them to the underworld."
"What do you mean by useless?" Shi Jian asked sarcastically after hearing Lin Fengjiao's words.
"Master, that means stupid, stupid, or a donkey, or an idiot." Shi Shaojian, who was at the side, also said with a strange smile. Then, he suddenly turned around to look at Ye Xuan, who was sitting in his seat, and said with a sneer, "Master's disciple is indeed a good-for-nothing. My master is here, but he's still sitting. He has no respect for his elders.
Ye Xuan didn't expect that he would be implicated even though he was sitting there peacefully. He turned his head and glanced at Shi Shaojian. Then he stared back at Shi Shaojian and said coldly, "Taoist, it seems that you're not good at teaching disciples. You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. You might bring trouble to the taoist, humph!"
With a cold snort, Ye Xuan's body suddenly erupted with a majestic aura, which directly pressed down on Shi Jian and his son.
Facing such an aura, everyone in the hall couldn't help but be shocked. Facing Ye Xuan's aura, Shi Jian and his son's expressions changed greatly. Shi Shaojian took a few steps back with a pale face and almost fell to the ground. Luckily, Shi Jian saw that his son was about to make a fool of himself, so he hurriedly stood up and also snorted, releasing his own aura to resist Ye Xuan's.
However, Ye Xuan withdrew his aura as soon as he released it. He only wanted to teach Shi Jian and his son a lesson, and didn't really want to fight with Shi Jian. After all, this was Lin Fengjiao's home, and there were so many of Shi Jian's fellow disciples here. If he fought with them, they definitely wouldn't just stand by and watch.
Of course, Ye Xuan wasn't afraid of them. He just didn't want to make things difficult for Lin Fengjiao. If he fought with Shi Jian, his son, and his fellow disciples here, Lin Fengjiao would definitely be in a dilemma, and there might even be a fight.
Ye Xuan was a sentimental person. In the two days that he had been with Lin Fengjiao, Lin Fengjiao had treated him very well. Not only did she arrange food and accommodation for him, but she also did her best to help him when he needed to print the ghost money yesterday.
As Ye Xuan withdrew his aura, Shi Jian, who had released his aura to fight against Ye Xuan, suddenly felt as if he had punched the air with all his strength. His face immediately became as ugly as if he was suffering from constipation.
"Who are you? How dare you act so presumptuously in front of the Maoshan Sect!" Shi Jian retracted his aura and shouted coldly at Ye Xuan, who was sitting on his seat. At the same time, he intentionally added the three words "Maoshan Sect".
"Eldest Senior Brother, it's a misunderstanding. This Fellow Ye is a fellow disciple of ours. He was just passing by this place, and it was Junior Brother Li Santong who asked him to be my guest. He has helped me a lot before, so I asked him to come and discuss with us." At this moment, Lin Fengjiao saw that Shi Jian was trying to use this as an excuse to show off, so she hurriedly stood up and explained.
"Hehe, Sir, I've only been sitting here and haven't said a word. Even the other Taoists here didn't say a word. Your disciple, a junior, dares to talk nonsense here. Who is the presumptuous one?" Ye Xuan didn't care about Shi Jian's cold shout at all, and sneered.
"You!" Shi Shaojian had always been arrogant and superior to others. He had never been humiliated like this. Just now, he had been humiliated by Ye Xuan's aura, which made him, the self-proclaimed Eldest Senior Brother of the Maoshan Sect, humiliated in front of everyone. Moreover, with Shi Jian beside him, he was so angry that he was ready to teach Ye Xuan a lesson.
"Presumptuous! Is this a place where you can behave atrociously? Get back here!" Shi Jian, who was about to make trouble for Ye Xuan, knew that his junior brothers were on Ye Xuan's side when he saw the expressions of his junior brothers after Ye Xuan's words. After all, as Ye Xuan had said, Shi Shaojian was only a junior, and a junior who dared to make trouble in front of them without their seniors saying anything was unacceptable to those who had many disciples. Therefore, he glared at Shi Shaojian and stopped him.
Shi Shaojian didn't dare to disobey Shi Jian's words. Moreover, without Shi Jian's support, he wouldn't dare to cause trouble for Ye Xuan alone. He glared at Ye Xuan and then stood behind Shi Jian obediently.
"My unworthy disciple was indeed impulsive just now. My friend, you are right. I am Shi Jian, the Eldest Senior Disciple of the Maoshan Sect. May I know who your Master is?" After calling Shi Shaojian back, Shi Jian looked at Ye Xuan up and down with his cold eyes again. Then, a stiff smile appeared on his face, and he looked at Ye Xuan with a fake smile.
