To meet a villain
The Seven Treasure Forest was a very famous place in Zhao City. After passing through the core area of the Hundred Thousand Mountains, one would arrive at the Seven Treasure Forest.
Of course, this was all information that Ye Fei had gathered when he accepted the mission. He didn't know much about the Seven Treasure Forest.
In the beginning, Ye Fei thought that entering the Seven Treasure Forest would be very easy. But when he followed the route given by the mission and passed through the Hundred Thousand Mountains, he realized how difficult the journey was.
Not only were there a large number of demonic beasts attacking along the way, the most important thing was that the Hundred Thousand Mountains was too big. It was still okay to pass through a small part of it.
Ye Fei planned to reach Seven Treasures Forest within ten days. In the end, it took him a total of twenty days before Ye Fei finally crossed the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
Behind them was a huge primeval forest.
There were also a large number of flying beasts in the sky. Ye Fei even saw a thunderbird hunting in the sky with a thunderous roar.
"There's actually a Thunderbird here. Could it be that the old Mansion Master's Thunderbird mount was captured here? However, with my Golden Roc wings, my flying speed will definitely be much faster than these Lightning Birds. "Ye Fei looked at the Lightning Birds flying across the sky and shook his head slightly.
Then, he noticed that there were large words engraved on the rock wall not far away. It looked like a signboard.
Upon closer inspection, Ye Fei realized that the Holy Land had set up a special encampment in the Seven Treasure Forests. There were Outer Sect Elders stationed there all year round, and they took turns to guard the place. All the Inner Sect disciples who came to train could seek help from the Holy Land Elders if they needed any help.
"As expected, after entering the inner sect, the treatment is indeed different. If I was still in the outer sect, it would be good enough if those elders did not bully the disciples. How could I possibly get any help?"
According to the route marked on the wall, Ye Fei decided to first go to the Holy Land's encampment to take a look. At the same time, he could also find out where the Seven Star Flower was in the Seven Treasure Forest.
"The task of picking the Seven Stars Flower might seem simple, but the reward is 20,000 contribution points. There must be some danger that I don't know about."
Ye Fei secretly calculated. Soon, he arrived at a very majestic mountain peak. At the top of the mountain, he could vaguely see a palace-like building. Ye Fei knew that this was the Holy Land's encampment in the Seven Treasure Forest. There were also a few outer sect disciples outside the entrance, in charge of guarding.
When they saw Ye Fei walking over, they hurriedly bowed and greeted him. "Greetings, Senior Brother. May I know your name? Are you going to enter the Seven Treasures Forest?"
"My name is Ye Fei. I'm here to complete a mission in Seven Treasure Forest!" Ye Fei flashed his identity token and showed it to the two disciples.
"So it's Senior Brother Ye. Please wait a moment, we'll ask the elder to come out." The two outer sect disciples had strange expressions on their faces. They quickly ran in and informed the elder who was stationed there.
Ye Fei vaguely felt that the two disciples were looking at him strangely, but he didn't have time to think about it. The elder who was stationed inside the encampment had already come out with a smile.
This was a round-faced fatty. He didn't look like an elder, but more like an accountant. He chuckled and cupped his hands towards Ye Fei, "So it's Junior Brother Ye. You want to enter the Seven Treasures Forest? What kind of mission do you want to do? Senior Brother will definitely tell you everything I know. However, you will need to pay a little contribution points."
"What? I need contribution points to gather information?" Ye Fei's expression turned ugly. "I've already spent all my contribution points. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come out to complete a mission."
The fat elder didn't get angry when he heard this. Instead, his smile became even gentler. He rubbed his hands and said, "It's fine if you don't have any contribution points. Who asked me to hit it off with you? How about this, if you have any good pills or treasures on you, I'll just give it to you as a token of appreciation."
After he finished speaking, he deliberately emphasized the word "token of appreciation." Ye Fei still couldn't react. This damn fatty was obviously asking for benefits from him. If that was the case, he should just bang his head against the wall and die. The so-called consultation fee was probably made up by this person.
After all, when he came over, the instructions on the wall clearly stated that any inner sect disciple could come and seek help. It didn't say that he needed to pay extra.
"I don't have any pills either!"
Ye Fei's tone was a little cold. He had truly seen the faces of these outer sect elders. This person was so fat, so he must have been asking for benefits from other disciples. Ye Fei really hated people like this.
"Junior Brother, you're really not a friend. You don't have any contribution points or pills. As your senior brother, I really can't help you. Then scram back to where you came from." The fat elder's attitude was also cold.
Ye Fei's guess was right. When the fat elder was here, he often used the convenience of the disciples who came to ask for information to openly ask for benefits. As long as it was an ordinary inner sect disciple, no one could escape being taken advantage of by him. Now that he saw that Ye Fei actually dared to reject him, the fat elder simply flicked his sleeves and raised his head.
"Junior Brother, don't blame your senior brother for not warning you. This Seven Treasure Forest is bigger than the Hundred Thousand Mountains. It's also very foggy inside. Without the map in my hands, even if you wander inside for a year, you might not be able to come out, let alone complete the mission." The fat elder looked at Ye Fei with a threatening tone.
In the past, it wasn't that no inner sect disciple had rejected him. However, when he threatened them like this, no matter how unwilling they were, they would swallow their anger in order to complete the mission faster.
"I don't believe this!" Ye Fei didn't compromise. At this moment, he even turned around and left. He didn't believe that he couldn't complete the mission without the map.
"Hmph, you ungrateful thing!"
Seeing that Ye Fei was so stubborn, the fat elder was very angry. He stared at Ye Fei's back and a cold, murderous glint flashed in his eyes. He said to himself coldly, "No wonder Senior Brother Ma wanted me to pay special attention to this Ye Fei. This person is really arrogant. Wait until you enter the Seven Treasure Forest. I'll see how you die!"
As he spoke, the fat elder took out a voice transmission talisman and whispered something. Then, he looked at the two outer sect disciples beside him and said coldly, "What did you see and hear just now?"
"Elder, we didn't see or hear anything. We've always been loyal to you!" the two said hurriedly, their bodies still trembling.
The fat elder nodded with satisfaction this time. He smiled and comforted them, "That's good. Remember, you must completely forget what happened today. Here, this is a first-grade Earth class elixir. It wasn't easy for me to get it. Consider it a reward for your hard work."
"Yes, thank you, Elder. We'll definitely do our best to serve Elder!" The two outer sect disciples were overjoyed. They were sent here because they didn't do well in the outer sect. Usually, they only saw the fat elder wantonly plundering the ordinary inner sect disciples and ordering them around. Who would have thought that the fat elder would suddenly change and reward them with elixirs?
