When Hu Caigan heard this sentence, he almost vomited blood. 'Hold your father', your father was the one who was held by the hand!
"You …" Hu Caigan pointed at Ye Kong angrily. He was really angry. I have already suffered a loss, yet I still came to apologize. What else do you want? You scolded my father in front of my face, I will fight it out with you!
But suddenly, a kick came from behind, "Little bastard, still so presumptuous. Kneel for me!"
"Ouch." Hu Caigan's knee was kicked from behind, but he only staggered and did not kneel down.
Kneel? Hu Caigan thought to himself, did I hear it wrong? A verbal apology was enough, but there was still a need to kneel down to this ten year old kid?
"Father!" But when Hu Caigan turned around, he saw his father's stern but pleading eyes. Hu Caigan swallowed his anger and did not say anything. He clenched his teeth and knelt down.
He knelt down, but his chest felt like it was about to explode. A strong sense of humiliation surged through his body. Kid! One day, I will make you pay! Ten times, a hundred times!
As Hu Caigan knelt down, the City Guard took off his hat and bowed respectfully to Ye Kong and said, "This lowly official's little bastard is usually unscrupulous and arrogant. Yesterday, I offended the eighth young master. Today, I specially came to apologize and ask the eighth young master to punish me."
This time, the Ninth Madam, who was standing at the side, was amazed. Although this City Guard's position was not high, it was not small either. Just like that, he made his son kneel down to him? The Ninth Madam could not believe her eyes.
But then, the Ninth Madam felt a sense of relief. Ai, the God of Plagues is the God of Plagues. Whoever meets him will be unlucky. Originally, I thought that I had endured the humiliation. But now, it seems that I am the one who has endured humiliation. Forget it, a dignified fifth grade City Guard has to treat him like this. Why should I, a woman, fight with him?
Seeing this scene, the Ninth Madam actually straightened her mind. From then on, she did not dare to offend Ye Kong and Chen Jiuniang.
Seeing that Mayor Hu was being so polite, Ye Kong felt a little embarrassed. He quickly helped Mayor Hu up and said, "Lord Hu, you don't have to be so polite. Actually, I'm a very magnanimous person. I don't want to be calculative with the younger generation …"
Hu Caigan felt like dying. Damn it, you call this magnanimous? I'm a few years older than you! You're the f * cking junior!
Mayor Hu was a typical smiling tiger who could endure anything and say anything. He immediately said with a smile, "Eighth Young Master, if you don't mind, you and I can call each other brothers. I'm a few years older than you, so I'm the elder brother. My son is very naughty and mischievous, so he needs you as his uncle to teach him. Well, I'll beat him when I need to, and scold him when I need to!"
Fine! This time, he really became a junior. Hu Caigan blacked out. Oh my god! Dad, I, this little tyrant, can become a little tortoise in the future.
Even Madam Jiu, who was already mentally prepared, was about to faint. First, she was shocked by Ye Kong's strength. As expected of the God of Plagues. Second, she was shocked by Mayor Hu's shamelessness. This person was too shameless.
As the saying goes, a person who is shameless is invincible. Ye Kong really couldn't find any reason. Even if Hu Caigan's expression was that of dissatisfaction, as an uncle, he would be too embarrassed to be calculative with the younger generation, right?
"Since that's the case … then get up, nephew." Since Hu Caigan was so understanding, Ye Kong was too embarrassed to be calculative. He called Hu Caigan and said in the tone of an elder, "Actually, I didn't want to be calculative with you. It's just that you're too stupid. When you're in someone else's territory, you have to act like a grandson. Look at who's protecting this place and see if this person can be provoked. You don't even know the situation, yet you're trying to mess things up. Tell me, are you stupid? I'm teaching you a lesson for your own good. I'm afraid that you'll embarrass your father. "
Hu Caigan was already kneeling. Naturally, he could take a few words from Ye Kong. In the end, he actually nodded and said, "That's indeed the case. I won't do it in the future."
Hu Caigan admitted his mistake verbally, but in his heart, he was thinking, Yes, you're right. Now that this place is under your protection, I'll lower my head and act like a grandson. When this place isn't under your protection … Hehe, it's useless even if you call me grandfather!
"Since that's the case, then let's forget about this matter. I won't send you off. Take care." Ye Kong directly ordered them to leave.
"Sorry to bother you. This lowly official will take his leave." Mayor Hu bowed to Ye Kong again before leaving with his son.
Behind him, Ye Kong's reminder sounded, "Nephew, don't forget to eat pig's brain. It's very nutritious!"
Even Madam Jiu couldn't help but laugh. This kid's mouth was really unforgiving. She covered her mouth and wanted to leave, but she was stopped by Ye Kong.
"Madam Jiu, there's something … I want to discuss with you." Ye Kong had a favor to ask, so he was polite.
Madam Jiu wasn't used to his politeness. She thought it was something important, but when she asked again, she found out that he was asking for someone.
"Eighth Young Master, isn't a Little Red enough? You also have ideas about my Little Juan?" Madam Jiu asked.
Ye Kong originally wanted to say that he was helping Liu Changqing, but if he said that, people might know that the two of them had an affair. Ye Jiajun was very strict. It was a big crime for soldiers to fall in love.
"Hehe, I'm here to redeem Little Juan, not to take her as a concubine." Ye Kong had no choice but to be vague.
Madam Jiu smiled and said, "Then you treat Little Juan better than Little Red. You two have been in contact for a long time, right?"
Ye Kong nearly fainted. That servant girl and I are innocent, okay? However, even if he said it, Madam Jiu wouldn't believe him. Ye Kong could only blame it on himself. Of course, he didn't care about the gossip.
"Madam Jiu, please be magnanimous. It doesn't matter how much you want to redeem me." Ye Kong didn't deny it.
With the scene just now, Madam Jiu would never forget it. She didn't dare to return the God of Plague's face. She smiled and said, "Hehe, Eighth Young Master is being stingy when it comes to money. It's just Little Juan. I'll immediately take the slave contract to you. We're family, so what's there to discuss?"
Madam Jiu was straightforward, and so was Ye Kong. "Thank you, Madam Jiu. If you need help in the future, just call me."
Following that, Ninth Madam called someone to bring over Xiao Juan's contract, and Xiao Juan also followed. In front of Ye Kong, Ninth Madam repeatedly warned Xiao Juan to cherish the Eighth Young Master's feelings, and to properly serve the Young Master.
Ye Kong's face turned red when he heard this. He quickly left with Little Juan. When he went out, he found Liu Changqing waiting outside.
This matter was over for Ye Kong. Liu Changqing happily brought Little Juan to buy a house and go to the yamen. Ye Kong didn't need to worry about these things.
Things were basically done. Ye Kong was ready to leave the city to cultivate. Returning to his own courtyard, although Chen Jiuniang and the two girls were reluctant, they knew that they couldn't delay Ye Kong's cultivation. After reminding Ye Kong again, Ye Kong left the Ye Mansion safely.
Ye Kong rode a horse to buy some corn seeds and left the city towards the south.
"Kid, where are you going to find to cultivate? It's best to find a remote place. It's safer and has more spiritual energy. "Ancestor Acheron asked.
"Hehe, you don't have to worry about this. This young master naturally has a plan. You just have to follow me in peace."
Ye Kong had indeed thought about it. Wasn't it good to go to the place that Fan Jiushe brought him to last time? It was remote and desolate enough. It didn't seem to be dangerous. Fan Jiushe could kill people there and rob them. It meant that he had already scouted the surroundings and didn't find anything special.
Soon, a man and a horse came out from the official road. They walked onto the grassland and entered the mangrove forest.
This road wasn't short. The last time they went there, they walked for a few hours. So when Ye Kong was about to arrive on horseback, the sky was already dark.
"This place … Could it be the hiding place of the foreign race cultivators that I was chased by the Shadow Clan?" Although the environment had changed over the past hundred thousand years, the Hundred Thousand Mountains in the distance hadn't changed. The more Ancestor Acheron looked at it, the more he thought it looked like it.
Ye Kong thought about it. Yes, Fan Jiushe obtained small swords and other items here. It meant that Ancestor Acheron's body had died here.
"That's right. This is the place that you have lived in for a hundred thousand years. This time, I brought you to revisit your old home. Do you have any regrets?" Ye Kong asked.
Ancestor Acheron scoffed. "It's that place. If I had casually used a Dharma artifact back then, I would have reached it in the blink of an eye. You actually took so long. What a waste of time."
Ye Kong said helplessly, "Hey, Ancestor, don't talk like that. It's easier said than done. Where would I get a flying Dharma artifact? If I had one, I would also want to ride on the clouds. But I don't have one now. "
Ye Kong then asked, "Does this small sword Dharma artifact have a flying function? I saw that Perfected Wan Xuan's flying sword could fly by stepping on it. "
"Even a trash Dharma artifact can fly." Ancestor Acheron said, "Many Dharma artifacts have added a flying function, especially flying swords. However, adding a flying function would reduce a part of the Dharma artifact's power. So many people would rather their flying swords not have a flying function and use this part of their energy to attack. This small sword Dharma artifact is like that."
"Does that mean that I have to find another flying Dharma artifact in the future?" Ye Kong squeezed the horse's abdomen dejectedly and urged it to move faster. But then he came back to his senses. "In that case, this small sword Dharma artifact's attack is very powerful?"
"What a trash Dharma artifact. So what if it's a mid-grade Dharma artifact? If anyone had given me such a Dharma artifact in the past, I would have slapped his face! " Nothing good came out of Ancestor Acheron's mouth. He kept talking about how things were in the past. It was really tiresome to hear.
"I say, Ancestor, can you stop talking about how brave you were in the past? If anyone were to give me a few of these Dharma artifacts now, I would be grinning from ear to ear. "
"You have no ambition!"
Ye Kong sighed. "I can't help it. Who asked us to be poor? It's really extravagant to talk about ambition with the poor. "
Ancestor Acheron sent a disdainful sneer and said, "Although this small sword Dharma artifact is like trash in my eyes, it's still a good Dharma artifact for you. It can be said that it's at the top among the same type and level."
Ye Kong was very happy when he heard that. This was a mid-grade Dharma artifact. If it was the strongest mid-grade Dharma artifact, it would already be very good. It was said that many Itinerant Immortals still used low-grade Dharma artifacts. That was really poor.
However, before Ye Kong had time to be happy, he heard Ancestor Acheron say again, "But even if it's a good Dharma artifact, the person using it must be powerful. Generally speaking, after the Foundation Establishment realm, it's best to reach the mid-stage Foundation Establishment realm before you can unleash the power of the Dharma artifact to its limit. So the same Dharma artifact in the hands of different people can have a world of difference in power."
"Then how much can I unleash now?" Ye Kong asked.
"Twenty percent." Ancestor Acheron mercilessly attacked Ye Kong.
"Only twenty percent?" Ye Kong said angrily. No matter how powerful this Dharma artifact was, what was the use if he could only unleash twenty percent?
Patriarch Yellow Spring cackled. "Kid, why don't those cultivators cultivate with all their might? In ancient times, Dharma artifacts were used by Foundation Establishment cultivators. Because there were too many Qi Refinement cultivators, the refining method of Dharma artifacts was modified so that Qi Refinement cultivators could also use them. You're only in the third level of Qi Refinement. How much power do you want to unleash? Even if you cultivate the Five Elements Immortal Ascension Technique and your Spiritual Force and Divine Sense are far superior to others, you can only unleash thirty percent of this small sword Dharma artifact's power at most. So you still have to cultivate more. Only by practicing hard can you have a day of success. "
Time passed unknowingly as they talked. When the moon was already hanging high above their heads, they finally arrived at their destination.
When Ye Kong rode his horse into the clearing in the forest, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.
