Some of the big shots in Leizhou City didn't really care about their juniors. However, Ye Zifeng was an exception.
This was because last time, Ye Zifeng had displayed his leadership skills. During the alchemy competition, Bingqian and Ye Zifeng had helped Leizhou City gain a reputation and showed off their potential as an alchemist.
To the elders of a clan, an alchemist was someone that they had to be on good terms with no matter what. Ye Zifeng's fame during the alchemy competition had attracted the attention of these big shots.
Because of this, in just one day, there was an endless stream of people coming to see Ye Zifeng.
The next morning, there was a long line of people coming to the Liu clan. When the steward opened the door, a large group of people rushed in. Under the guidance of a servant, they arrived at the guest hall.
"Young master Ye, look. This is a great mending pill that my relative from Lingfeng City gave me. It'll help with your recovery. Do you want to try it?"
"Go go go. What great mending pill. Can't you see that young master Ye's injuries are almost healed? What do you need a great mending pill for? Our Tong clan's qi circulation technique is more useful! "
Liu Mu furrowed his brows and waved his hand, "Alright. If you have anything to say, wait until young master Ye returns to the Ye clan. You can come visit him then. Now, let's move on to the next batch ….. "
"Why's the next batch so fast? You should know that I've been lining up since morning! "The people from the Tong Family were dissatisfied in their hearts as they cursed.
The person next to him pulled him back and bitterly smiled, "Forget it. Think about it. When we came in, the line was so long. If we don't hurry, I'm afraid that we won't be able to see young master Ye even if we wait until night time."
Even though the person surnamed Tong was annoyed, he knew that there was a long line outside the Liu clan so he left a gift for Ye Zifeng. After that, he was brought out by a servant, "Young master Ye, when you refine pills in the future, don't forget about me. I'm from the Tong clan!"
During this process, Ye Feng did not say a single word. He did not make a single sound.
"Big brother rough guy, I'm curious. You're not the only one participating in the alchemy competition. Didn't I also go? Why is it that when they see you, it's like they're seeing their ancestor, but when they see me, they only nod their heads and praise me?"
Bingqian giggled. Of course, she wasn't jealous of Ye Zifeng's reputation. It was just that she suddenly had this question in her mind.
"It's not hard to understand."
Ye Zifeng smiled, "Everyone knows your alchemy skills. How big of a difference can there be between a month ago and a month later? Now that you have participated in the Pill Competition, in the future, the cost of inviting you to refine pills will only increase. But I'm different. To them, I'm like a dark horse that has suddenly appeared after many years of silence. Who knows, they might be able to ask me to refine expensive pills at a very low price. "
"Then … your alchemy prowess is known by everyone. Are you afraid of being annoyed?"
Liu Bingqian remembered very clearly that Ye Feng had repeatedly warned her not to spread the news that he knew how to refine pills. But now, everyone in Lei Zhou City knew about it.
"Scared ….. Of course I'm scared. This is an opportunity but also a problem. That's why I need to increase my cultivation as fast as possible. When my injuries recover a bit, we can go and refine some profound tier pills together. Before the next sect mission, I need to increase my strength a bit more! "
"The next mission of the Martial House? Oh ….. Let me see. Tiandao City's fifteen days and the preparation time from before should be right in front of us. "
Bingqian looked at her fingers and calculated. When she came back to her senses, her eyes were filled with shock.
"Not bad. It's almost time for the monthly sect mission. This time, I think it's time to use my contribution points to exchange for something else."
Ye Feng said indifferently. The corner of his mouth raised into a smile.
The two of them were whispering to each other. In the eyes of others, there was a hidden meaning behind it.
When Liu Mu saw everyone pointing at him, he felt a bit annoyed. He coughed and wanted to remind Ye Zifeng and Ye Zifeng to be careful.
On the other side, Liu Yige had been looking at Ye Zifeng for a long time. He was so annoyed that he was about to explode.
"Master, why don't you take care of the people outside? From morning till now, the Liu clan hasn't been peaceful at all. They're all here to visit Ye Zifeng. Is this the Liu clan or the Ye clan? "
Liu Yige could only endure Ye Zifeng staying for a day. However, on the second day, there was a long line in front of the Liu clan's door. The line was so long that it could almost reach the sect's entrance. Because of this, Ye Zifeng had an excuse to not go back home. He could only wait for people to come to visit him.
Liu Mu calmly smiled, "Yige, think about it. Let's borrow Ye Zifeng's face and get closer to these people. For the Liu clan, this is a good thing."
Ye Zifeng was using the fact that he was staying here to show that the Ye clan and the Liu clan had a good relationship. However, Liu Mu, this old fox, was also using Ye Zifeng's name to benefit the Liu clan.
The two of them used each other and didn't say anything. In the eyes of others, they were getting along very well. It was the best of both worlds.
"But ….."
Liu Yige and Ye Zifeng's feud wasn't something that could be resolved with just a few words. It wasn't something that could be resolved with just a few words.
After so many days, he was on the verge of collapsing. He stayed in his room every day thinking about how to deal with Ye Zifeng.
"Whatever. Senior brother, let's not care about Ye Zifeng anymore. Since he's troublesome, let's just treat him like air."
Liu Ningzi lightly sighed and began to console Liu Yige.
"Junior Sister, why are you saying this? I remember when you first broke off the engagement, didn't you keep telling me to find an opportunity to teach him a lesson?" Liu Yige was stunned, and the expression on his face became more and more unsightly.
"That was before. This is now. If you keep thinking about messing with people, then what kind of future do you have? "Liu Ningzi stared at Ye Zifeng for a while and muttered.
Liu Yige didn't mean what she said.
Liu Yige was startled and his face turned ashen, "You're saying that I have no future?"
"No. Senior brother. That's not what I meant ….."
Liu Ningzi was looking at Ye Zifeng in a daze so she didn't think about what she said. Now that she thought about it, she felt that she said something wrong. Her eyes were filled with regret.
"Alright. I understand now. Clan master and sister Bingqian don't see me as one of their own. I admit it. But now, even junior sister is looking down on me right?"
Liu Yige's voice was trembling as if he was on the verge of collapsing.
"Senior brother. How could I look down on you? We grew up together. Even though you're not a member of the Liu clan, I've never seen you as an outsider." Liu Ningzi didn't know what to do. Seeing that Liu Yige was getting angry, she hurriedly tried to explain.
"Enough! Don't try to lie to me anymore! "
Liu Yige coldly snorted, "You guys are so polite to Ye Zifeng. It seems like I can't count on you guys. I'll deal with Ye Zifeng myself!"
Liu Ningzi's beautiful eyes flashed with a hint of panic as she hurriedly advised, "Senior Brother, don't do anything stupid! If father finds out, he won't let you off easily. "
"Fine. Worst comes to worst, the clan master will kick me out. After all, I've been a tortoise in the Liu clan for so many years. I've done enough!"
"Senior brother!"
Liu Yige no longer paid attention to Liu Ningzi's advice as he coldly snorted. With a gloomy face, he left the guest hall without saying a word and went straight out.
… …
The large living room was packed with people. Some people went out, and some people came in. This was a very normal thing. Thus, no one cared about Liu Yige leaving. They continued to praise Ye Zifeng's alchemy skills and bright future. They were trying to win Ye Zifeng's favor so that they can rely on him when it comes to alchemy in the future.
Maybe after the alchemy competition, the title of the number one alchemist in Leizhou City has changed from Bingqian to Ye Zifeng.
Ye Zifeng had just sent off an elder from a clan in Leizhou City and was about to welcome the next group of people. Suddenly, he felt someone lightly poke his back with a finger. He immediately frowned and turned his head to look at the slender arm that was as smooth as a lotus root.
"Liu Ningzi?"
Ye Zifeng casually looked at her. His originally smiling expression instantly turned cold.
He paused for a bit and coldly asked, "What do you want from me?"
He couldn't remember the last time he had a normal conversation with Liu Ningzi. Maybe they never had a normal conversation before. The two of them were born to be enemies.
"This is for you." Liu Ningzi's face turned pale. It was obvious that she had to muster up her courage to talk to Ye Zifeng.
As the sound of her voice faded, a small piece of paper was stuffed into Ye Feng's hands by Liu Ning.
"A small piece of paper?" Ye Zifeng's expression was a bit messed up.
After that, she didn't even look at Ye Feng's reaction. She looked for an opening and left in a hurry.
Bingqian had been observing Ye Zifeng the entire time and naturally wouldn't miss this scene. A complicated expression appeared on her face.
