Deliberately targeted
The nearby disciples of the Sword Palace were stunned. It was hard to imagine that a little girl would say such words. But when Niu Hao heard this, he laughed loudly. "Well said, as expected of Renzu's daughter! Don't worry, Miss Rou. As long as you meet your father and receive guidance from Renzu, you will have the chance to take revenge with your own hands. "
Niu Hao then looked at Ye Fei, Bai Yanran, and Mad Dog. "The Sword Palace's outer palace is very grateful that you were able to escort Miss Rou here! However, right now, I will be bringing Miss Rou to meet the Human Ancestor and acknowledge her ancestry. Esteemed guests, please rest in the VIP pavilion for a few days. "
In the Sword Palace, acknowledging one's ancestry was not a small matter. It was not only a recognition of one's status, but also a bloodline awakening. Especially since Jiang Xiao Rou was Renzu's daughter.
After Niu Hao finished speaking, he walked over to take Jiang Xiao Rou away. The little girl was very nervous. She subconsciously grabbed Ye Fei's clothes and hugged the Dragon Turtle tightly. Ye Fei smiled and encouraged her. "Xiao Rou, don't worry. We will stay here and wait for you to acknowledge your ancestry."
The little girl reluctantly put down the Dragon Turtle and walked timidly to Niu Hao's side. Niu Hao was very polite. As he comforted the little girl in a low voice, he didn't forget to instruct the two Dao Lords who came out later. "These three are the Sword Palace's honored guests. Treat them well and don't neglect them!"
When Niu Hao said that, he glanced at the white-clothed swordsman. Just this glance caused the white-clothed swordsman's body to go limp. His face was ashen as he fell to the ground. His heart was filled with endless regret.
This dramatic turn of events stunned the other Sword Palace disciples. No one expected that the little girl Ye Fei brought here would have such an identity. She was Renzu's daughter. Just this identity alone was enough to make people faint.
No one else dared to stop Ye Fei. Many people even looked at the paralyzed white-clothed swordsman sympathetically and quietly distanced themselves from him.
Ye Fei did not even look at the white-clothed swordsman. He would usually choose to ignore opponents whose names he could not even remember.
Besides, Ye Fei had no interest in attacking a fellow whose legs turned to jelly after being glared at by a Divine Lord. He only calmly walked into the Sword Palace under the white-robed swordsman's regretful and horrified gaze.
Looking at the little girl being taken away by Niu Hao, Bai Yanran was both disappointed and worried. "Ye Fei, is it really okay for us to let a little girl live in hatred?"
"Living in hatred is better than living in fear. I believe that Rourou will become stronger and stronger. By the way, seniors, since Rourou is Renzu's daughter, why is she wandering outside and almost being hunted down by demons? "Ye Fei could not help but ask curiously.
The young Dao Lord who was receiving them could not help but have a strange expression. "Why don't you know? Sword Guardian Renzu was the most promiscuous when he was young. How many children did he have outside? I think even he himself …"
"Silence!"
The other older Dao Lord suddenly shouted coldly. With a stern face, he lectured Ye Fei. "The three of you, don't think that you can achieve meteoric success just because you escorted that little girl back. If she can't awaken a high-level bloodline during the ancestral recognition ceremony, the rewards you will receive will be limited. Therefore, after entering the VIP Pavilion, you'd better not wander around. Be obedient and wait for Renzu to summon you. "
As they spoke, the two Dao Lords had already brought Ye Fei and the other two to a magnificent palace. This palace was the VIP Pavilion. There were countless pavilions and luxurious decorations. It was the Sword Palace, a place specially used to receive VIPs.
The two Dao Lords escorted them here and then left. Then, a slightly plump steward walked up coldly. He sized up the three of them and said, "I heard that the three of you actually saved Sword Guardian Renzu's daughter. You're really lucky."
"Not at all. We were asked to do our job. Senior, I have something I'd like to ask about …" The two Dao Lords were tight-lipped just now. Ye Fei could not ask about the Ninth Heaven Sword Master.
He decided to use this plump steward as a breakthrough point. However, the plump steward did not have any intention of responding to Ye Fei. He waved his hand coldly and said, "I'm not free. This is your room number. Take it and go behind the mountain in the east to find it!"
There were mountains and rivers in the VIP Pavilion. Following the plump steward's instructions, Ye Fei suppressed his anger and went to his room. However, when he saw it, Ye Fei's expression changed.
Mad Dog was so angry that the veins on his forehead were bulging. "We went through so much trouble to save Sword Guardian Renzu's daughter. In the end, the Sword Palace made us stay in a thatched hut!"
That's right. The plump steward had assigned them a thatched hut, the kind where the three of them could squeeze together. Mad Dog was not the only one who was angry. Bai Yanran was also frowning.
"The Sword Palace is treating us like this. I'm suddenly worried about whether Rourou will be able to live a good life in the Sword Palace," Bai Yanran said worriedly.
"We don't have to worry about Rourou. After all, she is Renzu's daughter. Lord Niu Hao's care for her doesn't seem fake," Ye Fei said with certainty.
Mad Dog pointed coldly at the thatched hut in front of them. "Then how do you explain this? Ye Fei, could it be that you've offended someone again? "
Ye Fei broke out in a cold sweat. He was depressed to find that he couldn't find any words to refute him. After all, it was obvious that they were being deliberately targeted in the current situation.
However, in the Sword Palace, he seemed to have only had a conflict with the white-robed swordsman. And the white-robed swordsman didn't seem like someone with such power.
But other than this person, Ye Fei couldn't think of anyone else he could have offended in the Sword Palace. Bai Yanran said angrily, "Since Rourou is fine, let's go. We don't have to suffer here."
"No!"
Ye Fei was shocked. He came to the Sword Palace to escort Jiang Rourou back to her ancestral home. His main purpose was to investigate the relationship between the Ninth Heaven Sword Master and the Sword Palace. How could he leave so easily at this time?
Thinking of this, Ye Fei gritted his teeth and looked at Mad Dog. "Brother Ji Feng, please go out and spread the news that we rescued Rourou. It's best if everyone knows about it."
Although doing this was a bit of an act of blackmail, if the news spread, no one in the Sword Palace would dare to take the risk of repaying kindness with enmity and hurt them.
The effect of Mad Dog's actions even exceeded Ye Fei's expectations. When the news spread throughout the City of Ten Thousand Swords that someone had rescued Renzu's daughter, the fat manager of the VIP Pavilion immediately ran over to Ye Fei, sweating profusely. He nodded and bowed to Ye Fei and desperately explained that he had arranged the wrong room.
On the same day, the fat manager vacated three of the best rooms for Ye Fei and the others to live in. Even the Dragon Turtle was treated like a national treasure. Every day, it would open its mouth to eat. Ye Fei and Xiao Cao were very impressed and had the urge to starve the Dragon Turtle for ten meals.
The three cultivators and the tortoise were enjoying their meals and accommodations in the VIP pavilion. The only thing that Ye Fei found strange was that the Sword Protector had yet to summon them. Even Xiao Rou was nowhere to be found. When he asked the plump manager about it, he was completely clueless about it.
