On a construction site that was still under construction, there were many large and small white stones piled up like a small hill. These stones were between jade and stone. They were hard, shiny, and rich in minerals. Under the dazzling sunlight, they reflected specks of light.
"These are all for me?" Ye Kong couldn't help but laugh. "You guys are so polite. But I don't need so many. One or two will do."
Ye Kong was interested in these stones because the five statues in the main hall of the Five Elements Immortal Mansion were also made of these stones. That was why he wanted some so that he could erect a statue for Uncle Ji in the future.
Ye Kong wasn't young, but he still had the temperament of a teenager. He climbed up the stone hill like an ordinary person and found two stones of similar size. One to carve and one to spare. That was enough.
Seeing Ye Kong put away the stone, Hu Hailong smiled and said, "Look at the size. Are you going to carve a statue for someone too?"
Ye Kong smiled faintly and nodded. "That's right, someone I respect."
Hu Hailong sighed. "I also want to carve one for someone I respect, but I never had the time."
On the Star Boat, Ye Kong knew that Hu Hailong's mother had died in the Collapse of the Heavens in the Withered Leaf Realm more than a hundred years ago. That was when Hu Hailong was still young. Everyone knew that only the Saint Devil Sect had the ability to do something like the Collapse of the Heavens. Therefore, Hu Hailong hated the Saint Devil Sect.
Ye Kong guessed that Hu Hailong wanted to carve a statue for his mother. He asked, "Then you can make time. I don't believe that you're that busy."
Hu Hailong smiled bitterly. "Don't think that it's easy to carve a statue, and don't think that I'm that free! Look at this realm. How many formations and ideas are there? I have to come up with them! "
Ye Kong laughed again. "I'm going to criticize you again. Cultivators must follow their hearts. You don't do what you want to do wholeheartedly, yet you're troubled by worldly matters. I think you're even more worldly than a mortal."
Hu Hailong smiled bitterly. "So be it. What else do you think I can do? My lifespan is limited. Don't tell me I still hope to form my Nascent Soul or Soul Formation? "
Ye Kong looked at him and smiled. "I can't guarantee that, but I have a way to increase your lifespan … If your lifespan is long, it's not impossible for your cultivation to improve. What's more, is your body sick? Could cultivators get sick? What a joke! Even if his body was destroyed, he could still be reborn! This is caused by you not cultivating for a long time and carelessly eating those evil elixirs that increase your lifespan or cultivation … "
Hu Hailong was stunned. He had always felt that his body had been weak since he was young, so he should be like this. Now that he thought about it, what Ye Kong said really made sense.
Who wouldn't want to be alive and kicking? Hu Hailong's interest was piqued. He quickly bowed and asked, "Then, do I still have hope? What should I do, Brother Ye, teach me! "
Ye Kong said, "Follow me to a place. There are Spiritual Peaches that can prolong your life and all kinds of elixirs that don't have any side effects. Leave these complicated affairs and cultivate diligently. I guarantee that your situation will change greatly!"
"That bastard!" Hu Ke Zhen was unable to restrain his anger in the palace. He cursed, "This brat is really a bastard. I kept him here out of goodwill and even appointed him as the Prime Minister. It's fine that he didn't give me face in front of so many people … but now he actually poached my people! This is simply preposterous! "
Hu Jun hurriedly echoed, "That's right, and those two women are also good-for-nothings. Brother, look at how their eyes lit up when they saw our supreme-grade spirit stones. Who knows, they might be planning to steal it. " Hu Jun was really ridiculous. Of course women liked those shiny things and wanted to take a few more glances. This was equivalent to wanting to steal it.
Hu Ke wasn't confused and snorted. "Your son isn't a good person either. I'll teach him a lesson today and make him behave with his tail between his legs."
Hu Jun hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, yes. I'll definitely go back and teach him a lesson." Then he asked, "That Ye …"
Hu Ke waved her hand impatiently and said, "Scram, scram, scram as soon as possible! He's spreading lies and saying that Giant Food Planet is about to explode. To think that Hailong, that silly kid, actually believed him. "
Hu Jun thought to himself, This is for the best. I originally thought that my position would be challenged, but now the Prime Minister position is mine.
Ye Kong, who hadn't received the news, continued, "Brother Hu, we've known each other for some time. You should know what kind of person I am. I joke about small matters, but I never joke about big matters. Furthermore, I'll harm anyone but my friends. Leaving with me is your best choice … "
The few True Sovereigns and God Sovereigns behind Hu Hailong exchanged glances. They thought to themselves that this kid was really unscrupulous. If they were to poach people with such great fanfare, Hu Ke might really blame them for pretending to be deaf and mute.
One of the Divine Lords hurriedly stepped forward to remind him, "Young Master, it's time to take the medicine."
Unexpectedly, Ye said, "I already said that those evil pills have side effects. You're harming your Young Master."
That Divine Lord smiled bitterly, "Friend Ye, don't be angry at me. This isn't something I can decide."
Hu Hailong laughed and said, "That's right. I'm going back to take my medicine. Brother Ye, you can walk around by yourself."
Following that, Hu Hailong was pushed away. Sunlight shone on the jade ground, and cultivators were casting watering spells on the flowers. It was as though it was raining in broad daylight.
Ye Kong suddenly started singing, "The rain keeps on falling, and my luck keeps on being bad. Under my father's roof, you're slowly starting to feel like a limp … "
The Divine Lord, who was pushing Hu Hailong, nearly fell over. Following that, they hurriedly sped away. They didn't dare to get involved in such matters.
At that moment, Yi Manying and Huang Shishi finished their prayers and walked over.
When the two women heard him sing, they laughed. Yi Manying didn't hear the lyrics clearly, but she felt that the tune was not bad. She laughed, "I didn't expect you to be proficient in music. You're even hiding your skills."
Ye Kong said, "That's right. I know that you women of the Shadow Clan like music. If I don't hide it well, I'm afraid that the women of the Shadow Clan will crush my house."
Yi Manying sneered, "Stop being so smug."
Huang Shishi, however, heard the last two lines of Ye Kong's singing clearly. She was also a woman with brains, so she understood what was going on after pondering for a while.
She immediately wrote on Ye Kong's arm, "Sowing discord between father and son?"
Ye Kong turned around and said, "That's right."
Huang Shishi didn't expect him to admit it so readily. She giggled and patted him. She jokingly scolded, "You're so naughty!"
Seeing them flirting, Yi Manying was somewhat baffled. She asked, "What are you guys talking about? Why don't I understand?"
Ye Kong said, "I'll tell you after we leave this place."
Yi Manying nodded, "Okay, I'll remember to ask you."
Huang Shishi, on the other hand, frowned and said, "I don't know when we can leave."
Actually, Ye Kong didn't have much confidence in himself. He didn't know if Hu Ke Zhen would let them go or not. Ai, it's not good to be too handsome these days! A certain someone sighed in a very arrogant manner.
But very soon, he had an idea. Nighttime. The term 'nighttime' here was what the local cultivators called it. In fact, it was still daytime.
A few cultivators arrived. The one in the lead was Hu Jun. He brought his son, Hu Mingyang, to Huang Shishi's residence.
Ye Kong looked at Hu Jun. He was only in the late stage of Yuanying. Both father and son had the same cultivation level. A certain someone had to say a few words, "Second Uncle Hu, your cultivation level should be the same as Eldest Uncle Hu Kezhen. How can it be the same as your son's?"
Hu Jun smiled bitterly. Then why isn't your cultivation level the same as your dao companion, Huang Shishi? I haven't even mocked you yet, but you're mocking me first. Thus, he could only smile and explain, "Actually, Friend Ye, you don't know this. Although Hu Kezhen and I are brothers from the same husband and mother, my parents gave birth to him at the age of 30 and me at the age of 700. I'm younger than my brother by more than 600 years, so of course my cultivation level is much lower."
Only then did everyone understand the whole story. But in his heart, Ye muttered, Your mother is really an old woman. Of course, this kind of words cannot be said out loud.
Ye Kong nodded and invited them to sit down. He then asked, "I don't know why Second Uncle Hu is here today …" Ye Kong considered himself to be of the same generation as Hu Hailong, so he addressed Hu Hailong accordingly.
Hu Jun smiled, "I'm here today for two matters. First, is to bring this unfilial son of mine to apologize to Friend Ye. Friend Ye saved my sect's young master and dozens of Hu clan members. He is the benefactor of my sect and my family … "
Ye Kong did not want to listen to his long-winded speech. He waved his hand and said, "Look at what you're saying, I've already forgotten about this matter. Actually, this is also my fault. I shouldn't lower myself to the same level as a junior. But at that time, I really didn't know that there was such a relationship. Otherwise, we're all juniors from the same family, so why bother? "
Ye Kong spoke magnanimously. Hu Jun nodded and said, "That's right, it's Friend Ye who is magnanimous. Actually, Mingyang also didn't understand the relationship clearly. If I had known that he was my elder …" As Hu Jun said this, he suddenly became confused. When did this rascal Ye Kong become his elder?
This Hu Jun was also clever and hurriedly changed his words, "Benefactor is my elder. If I had known that he was my benefactor, Mingyang would not have harassed my benefactor's dao companion." After saying that, he shouted, "Mingyang, quickly apologize to my benefactor and sister-in-law."
Hu Mingyang hurriedly stood up and apologized. As he bowed, he saw the huge size of Huang Shi Shi's clothes. Just as his heart was about to move, he saw a certain someone's eyes. Hu Mingyang hurriedly withdrew his thoughts. Forget it, it's better to not cause trouble. I heard that this kid is not someone easy to deal with.
After waiting for Hu Mingyang to apologize, Hu Jun smiled and took out a piece of paper that was as white as snow from his storage bag. When Huang Shi Shi saw it, her eyes immediately became hot. This was the pawn ticket that she had been dreaming of for the past eighteen years!
Following that, Hu Jun spoke of his true intentions, "With the approval of our sect head, we have already found the pawn ticket that Huang Shi Shi and our sect had previously set. Now, we will return the original item to Huang Shi Shi." After saying that, he waved his hand and the pawn ticket flew into Huang Shi Shi's hands.
Looking at this pawn ticket, Huang Shi Shi found it hard to calm down. It was because of this item that she had wasted eighteen years here. If not for Ye Kong coming this time, she would have to serve the Pawn Devil Sect for another thirty-two years!
But at this moment, Huang Shi Shi did not hold a grudge against the Pawn Devil Sect at all. Because if not for this pawn ticket, she and Ye Kong would have definitely died in the hands of Di Chitian.
Huang Shi Shi took the pawn ticket and thanked Hu Jun. "No matter what, if it wasn't for the Pawnshop Devil Sect, Ye Kong and I would have been in danger that day. Hence, I thank the Pawnshop Devil Sect and Divine Monarch Chen Zhihao who sent us the Celestial Jades."
Hu Jun smiled and said, "We are helping each other. Alright, This Old Man's matter has been settled. I will go back now. "Before leaving, Hu Jun did not forget to say," You guys can also leave at any time. "
