Ever since he learned of Ye Kong's true strength, Zhang Chunfeng, who originally looked down on Ye Kong, changed from disdain to respect. In the world of cultivation, the winner is king, the strong are respected, and those who have strength will be respected by others!
Thinking of Ye Kong's calmness when he used the Great Slicing Divine Art, Zhang Chunfeng's heart was stirred. He told himself that he must work hard so that he could have such a demeanor in the future!
Ye Kong did not expect that his actions would become a role model for Hu Yunfeng and Zhang Chunfeng to work hard. The two of them had worked even harder in the past five years. Even the amount of Blood Gold they had dug up and refined had increased by a lot!
They went to the Artisan God Territory to sell blood gold once every five years. Because of their hard work, they obtained a lot of blood gold, and it just happened to be a good price. So this time, they actually sold two star rock crystals, which made Hu Yunfeng and Zhang Chunfeng very happy.
It was also because they made more money this time that they stayed in the Artisan God Territory for two more days. And in these two days, they happened to hear the name Ye Kong!
Although it had been seven years since the Artisan God's birthday, the people of the Artisan God Territory still enjoyed telling the story of the seven phoenix cries and the eight rooster crows at the Artisan God's birthday banquet.
Only then did Hu Yunfeng and Zhang Chunfeng realize that Fellow Daoist Ye was no ordinary person! He was already very famous in the Artisan God Territory! Zhang Chunfeng smiled bitterly. Ye Kong did not even take the Heroic Sword God seriously, and he actually looked down on him. He was really a snob!
However, as they pretended to casually inquire about Ye Kong's matters, in the end, they actually managed to hear a shocking piece of news. It turned out that after Ye Kong left the Artisan God Territory, there was a rumor that Ye Kong was a fake Emissary of the Fire God, and was now wanted by the Dong Sheng Divine Kingdom and the Northern Sword Divine Kingdom!
Moreover, because they were inquiring in the slums, a passing Deity sighed and said, "That Ye Kong escaped by himself, but his friends were unlucky. The six Demonic Gods were all captured by White Sword City's swordsmen!"
After receiving this news, Hu Yunfeng and Zhang Chunfeng hurriedly rushed back, wanting to tell Ye Kong the news.
In the Blood Lake Territory, the Divine Boat had already come to a stop.
Standing high up on the Divine Boat, Zhang Chunfeng could already see Ye Kong's cave abode from afar. Just as Hu Yunfeng was about to disembark, Zhang Chunfeng pulled him back.
"Big brother! I have another idea … "Zhang Chunfeng hesitated for a moment and looked in the direction of Ye Kong's cave abode before saying," Big Brother, that Ye guy is in charge of statistics for both the East Victory Divine Kingdom and the Northern Sword Divine Kingdom! The Dong Sheng Divine Kingdom was too far away, but the Northsword Divine Kingdom wasn't! I've already asked around. The Northsword Divine Kingdom put a bounty on him in White Sword City and the 58 cities under the Sword Fiend God … "
Before Zhang Chunfeng could finish speaking, Hu Yunfeng's expression turned solemn. For the first time, he spoke in a cold tone, "Brother, don't forget our dream. We want to be true swordsmen! A true swordsman would never betray his friends to gain benefits. A swordsman can only get what he wants, apart from his own hands, or the sword in his hands! "
Zhang Chunfeng insisted, "But he isn't even considered our friend!"
"It doesn't matter if he isn't our friend! Brother, don't forget why we were able to work here peacefully all these years. Why didn't the Cloud Bandits come and harass us? It was all because of Daoist Ye Kong's help. Because he was here, we were safe! He gave us so much help. Even if he wasn't a friend, he was at least a benefactor. How could we betray him?! "
Hu Yunfeng added, "Besides Yu Fengqi, the rest of the White Sword City are not worth mentioning! As for the Sword Fiend God's faction, although they are powerful in the Northsword Divine Kingdom, they aren't what I want! I, Hu Yunfeng, will either become a disciple of the Sword Fiend God, or become an outer sect disciple! Otherwise, I will become a disciple of the Sword Buddha God and become his chivalrous Sword Buddha's disciple! "
Hearing this, Zhang Chunfeng's eyes lit up. He said, "That's right. Although the Sword Fiend God has many subordinates and controls the 58 cities of the Swordsman's Territory, his subordinates are a mix of good and bad. There are constant infighting. I heard that he is biased towards the Demon Race Gods. As for humans, unless you are as talented as Yu Fengqi, he won't even bother with you! "
At this point, Zhang Chunfeng gave up on the idea of snitching.
However, just as they alighted from the Divine Boat and were about to head over to Ye Kong's cave abode, the clouds in the sea of clouds rolled. Someone actually came to the Blood Lake Territory!
Not long after, a black Divine Boat entered the Blood Lake Territory. On the Divine Boat was a familiar tall man with an arrogant expression!
"It's Sixth Tiger Xiong Xianqi!" Zhang Chunfeng's heart jumped. He thought to himself, I haven't seen these Cloud Bandits for the past few years. Why are they here today? What are they here for? Could they be here to snatch my Star Rock Crystals?
Hu Yunfeng was also worried, but he didn't dare to do anything. He could only stand there and wait for Xiong Xianqi to come over.
"The two of you, may I ask if Daoist Ye Kong is still in the cave abode?"
Hearing Xiong Xianqi's question, Hu and Zhang heaved a sigh of relief. It was great that he wasn't here to look for them!
Hu Yunfeng said, "Replying to Sixth Leader, we just came back from outside and are not sure if Friend Ye is around. However, he has been in seclusion for more than six years. I think he should still be around. "
Xiong Xianqi nodded and waved his hand. "Lead the way. Knock on the door!"
Hu and Zhang thought to themselves that this guy was really putting on airs. However, they were also going to see Ye Kong. Hence, they led the way and knocked on the door.
After five years, Ye Kong's godhead had improved tremendously!
500 godheads, that wasn't just a bluff! After swallowing 500, his basic godheads were very satisfied and he was almost full! Of course, this was only a short-term satiety. After he broke through, he would become a hungry wolf that devoured godheads!
That is to say, after 500 godheads, he still hadn't broken through!
Ye Kong reckoned that it would be enough if he had another hundred or ten of them. However, where could he find 100 godheads?
Just as Ye was pondering over this matter, Xiong Xianqi came. Ye Kong thought to himself, 'Good, I can't wait for you to shed all pretense of cordiality with me. The more people you bring, the better. This way, I will have hope of entering the Upper Gods!'
Ye Kong was just waiting for Xiong Xianqi to fall out with him. However, things didn't go as he wished. Xiong Xianqi wasn't here to cause trouble, but to express goodwill!
Actually, Xiong Xianqi, Hu and Zhang had the same intention!
Hu Yunfeng and Zhang Chunfeng wanted to tell Ye Kong that they had heard from a shop in the slums that Demon God Liuding Liujia had been captured! Xiong Xianqi's purpose of coming here was to report to Ye Kong. It was said that the Swordsman Territory controlled by the Sword Demon God had already issued a wanted order. Anyone who reported Ye Kong's whereabouts would be rewarded with a million Divinity Crystals.
Hearing this news, Ye Kong raised his eyebrows and asked, "Only the Sword Demon God put a wanted order for me? White Sword City must have put a bounty on my head too, right? "
"Not really." Xiong Xianqi said, "White Sword City didn't put a wanted order for you. Instead, they publicly announced that as long as you release Yu Fengqi, they will let bygones be bygones! As for Friend Ye, your friends are all enjoying themselves in White Sword City. "
"So that's how it is …" Ye Kong understood that White Sword City had already sensed that Yu Fengqi wasn't dead, so they didn't dare to openly arrest Ye Kong. Instead, they wanted to exchange for their genius Yu Fengqi. After all, without Yu Fengqi, White Sword City was nothing in the Northern Sword Divine Kingdom!
Even if Yu Fengqi was allowed to live, Ye Kong wouldn't let him have a future! Therefore, Yu Fengqi wasn't the key. The key was Demon God Liuding Liujia. Ye Kong didn't expect his friends to suffer because of him, so he was really sorry.
Thinking of this, Ye Kong already had an idea. He looked up at Xiong Xianqi and said, "Then, Sixth Elder, if you know the news, why don't you report it to the Sword Demon God and exchange it for ten Star Rock Crystals?"
