Evil Master and Disciple

When Ye Feng returned to Fengling Residence on the mountainside, it was almost two o'clock in the morning.

There was candlelight in Ling'er's room, but the master's room was dark.

In order to avoid disturbing their rest, Ye Feng walked very quietly.

Suddenly, Master Yulong's voice rang out: "I say, are you addicted to being a thief? You're still acting like a thief when you get home."

Ye Feng was startled and looked carefully, only to see his fat master lying on a recliner in the yard. It was pitch dark and if he hadn't looked carefully, he wouldn't have been able to detect the existence of this black man.

"Ah, it's Master. You scared me! It's so late, why aren't you resting yet?" Ye Feng apologized quickly with a smile.

"How could I sleep without you coming back? Don't you know your current situation? And you're still running around everywhere. Are you really planning to die young?"

Although Fatty Yulong usually speaks in a very rude manner, he really cares about Ye Feng.

If Ye Feng doesn't come back, he really won't have the heart to rest.

Ye Feng quickly said, "Fang Tong and the others and I spent the whole afternoon playing in the Fairy Valley at the foot of the mountain. I made Master worried! It's all my fault."

Fatty Yulong rolled his eyes in surprise and said, "Ling'er and Xiaoman made a lot of dumplings this afternoon. We've all eaten them, so we left a plate for you. It's in the kitchen, so bring it out and eat it yourself."

Ye Feng really wanted to say that he was full, but he couldn't let his junior sister down, so he ran into the kitchen and brought out the dumplings.

The dumplings were already cold, but they still tasted very good, a bit like the pork and green onions in my previous life.

Fatty Yulong looked at the disciple sitting in front of him eating and drinking without restraint and shook his head slightly.

He asked, "You and Fang Tong gambled again today, didn't you?"

Ye Feng wiped his mouth and said, "How could that be possible? I went to look for a job."

"Looking for a job? What do you mean?"

“It’s about making money.”

"Making money? If I remember correctly, the only way you make money is by stealing..."

"Master, that was all in the past. I actually found a job that makes a lot of money today."

Master Yulong became interested and said, "Oh, tell me about it."

Ye Feng said: "I am helping Tianfengyuan collect debts now."

"Ahem...what did you say? Collecting a debt? Collecting what debt?"

"It's the annual tribute from the shops in Xianling Valley. Many shops are clearly making a lot of money, but they're in arrears with their rent. Senior Sister Xiaorou has been in charge of this matter recently, and she's very distressed about it.

So Senior Sister Xiaorou entrusted me to collect the debt on her behalf..."

Master Yulong began to pinch his eyebrows with his hands.

Seeing this, Ye Feng asked, "Master, are you feeling unwell?"

Fatty Yulong muttered, "It was quite comfortable before, but now it's uncomfortable. You kid...what can I say to you? Do you know what those shops in Xianling Valley that are in arrears with their annual tribute are like? Others are trying to avoid them, but why are you trying to get in there yourself?"

Ye Feng frowned and said: "Master, killing someone means paying with one's life, and debts must be paid back, these are all natural things.

If they really had no money, they could have extended or waived the rent, but their business was very profitable, with no losses, so why didn't they pay the annual tribute? This was written in black and white when they first opened the shop, and they even signed and stamped their fingerprints!

Our Yunhai Sect is the leader of the immortal path and the pillar of the righteous path. The actions of these elders are truly shameful and also damage the image of our Yunhai Sect.

I just don't believe it. There is no justice in this world!"

Fatty Yulong looked at his silly disciple in astonishment.

In the past, this kid was a pioneer in breaking the law and violating disciplines.

How come he seems like a different person after this ordeal?

Is this really his word?

Did he really not get the wrong script?

Fatty Yulong asked, "Do you really think so?"

Ye Feng said: "Of course."

Fatty Yulong was quite pleased and said, "It seems that you have really grown up. As a person, you can be careless about trivial matters, but you must be moral. Look at me, my teacher. Yes, I often go down the mountain to visit brothels. The whole world knows that I have this hobby, but I never owe money for prostitution, nor do I bully the weak and humiliate decent women in this world.

In the past, you were a cheater and thief, and I was worried that you would go astray when you grew up. But based on what you just said, I have concluded that you have reformed and become a new person.

Well, since you want to rectify the bad atmosphere within the Yunhai Sect, your master will support you and do a good job.

If you make any mistakes, your master will support you."

"Really? Master! You're so kind! We've discussed it and decided to start with the Tianyu Silk Shop run by Senior Uncle Yunyu. Master, you're so knowledgeable, could you offer some advice..."

"Yun Yu? Hahaha, you have good taste, kid. Your uncle Yun Yu was known as the most beautiful girl in Yunhai Sect when she was young. Back then, your master and I pursued her for many years, but she didn't even look at me. I didn't expect that she would have such a day!

Feng'er, let me tell you, although your senior sister Yunyu looks like a decent person, dresses in a sanctimonious manner, and talks big all the time, she is actually the one who cares most about face.

The method to deal with this kind of old woman who cares about her reputation is very simple... just come closer and listen..."

Ye Feng moved closer, and Master Yulong whispered something in his ear.

Ye Feng said hesitantly: "Master, is this possible?"

Master Yulong said confidently: "Don't worry, this method will definitely work!"

Ye Feng thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then I'll get ready and go to Xianling Valley tomorrow afternoon."

After returning to the room, Ye Feng did not even light a candle. He just threw away his shoes and went to the bed to meditate.

He had only recovered 30% to 40% of his spiritual power in the afternoon, and now he had to continue recovering.

The purpose of collecting debts is to make money, the purpose of making money is to exchange for spirit crystals, and the purpose of exchanging for spirit crystals is to help oneself recover spiritual power faster and improve one's cultivation.

Cultivation is the ultimate goal.

Ye Feng does not focus his main energy on making money, but on cultivation.

He had his own plans in mind.

Meditate and practice in the evening, and go to the back mountain to practice sword in the morning.

Set aside four or five hours in the afternoon to work.

After meditating for two hours, the true energy in his body finally returned to its peak state.

At this time, all the fatigue has disappeared.

He opened his eyes and saw that there was still some time before dawn, so he continued to expand his Dantian and meridians.

Early in the morning, just as the sky was getting light, Ye Feng got out of bed.

The door of Ling'er's room next door opened almost at the same time.

Ling'er asked in surprise, "Brother, good morning! Are you getting up to practice too?"

Ye Feng nodded, glanced at Xiao Man behind Ling'er, and said, "Did you get up to gather Qi?"

"Yes, Daddy said that for a novice disciple like me, the best time to gather Qi is early in the morning. Brother, let's go together!"

"No, no, no, your senior brother has already passed the stage of Qi Refining. I am now mainly practicing sword techniques. You and Miss Xiaoman can gather Qi in the courtyard. I will go first!"

Ye Feng drew out the purple-green divine sword and turned into a green light and flew away.

Ling'er and Xiaoman were both stunned by this scene.

Xiao Man said, "Senior Brother Ye's swordsmanship has improved so quickly!"

Ling'er nodded and said, "Yes, a few days ago, Senior Brother had to tie the magic sword to his feet when flying in the air. Now he doesn't even need his feet anymore and can just fly away with the magic sword in his hand! So cool!"

Under the admiring gazes of the two little fans, Ye Fengying circled in the sky for a while, and then flew towards the small waterfall in the back mountain.

Ten minutes later, he landed beside the cold pond.

The sky was still slightly bright at this moment, and the cool breeze in the early morning made me feel refreshed.

Ye Feng continued to practice the sword-condensing style.

Ye Feng has now initially developed combat effectiveness.

The more than one hundred condensed Qi swords are still quite lethal when fighting in the Sky Control Realm.

However, he has almost no combat experience.

I haven't started learning body movements, footwork, or close combat sword techniques yet.

All I can say is that it is a waste of this peerless divine sword, Purple Lightning and Blue Frost.

After practicing the sword-controlling style for more than half an hour, Ye Feng stopped practicing because more than half of his spiritual power was consumed.

He then began to practice the body movements and footwork taught to him by Ye Fuyou.

Practicing this thing only consumes physical strength, not spiritual energy.

The first thing to practice is the phantom body technique.

The thirty-six steps of Phantom, first the Five Elements, then the Eight Trigrams, the Nine Palaces, and finally the Flying Stars.

The changes are very complex.

Ye Feng cleared a large open space on the east side of the cold pond.

All the big rocks were moved away to make the ground as flat as possible.

Then many areas were drawn on the ground.

Corresponding to the five elements, eight trigrams, and the flying directions of the nine palaces.

It took half an hour to clean up, and by the time I really started practicing, it was already the Si hour.

The first time I practiced, I felt very unfamiliar. I recited the body movement mantras while slowly changing the body movement position.

If he were to fight with someone, with his movements slower than a turtle, his head would probably have been chopped off before he even took the third step.

It was his first time practicing physical skills, so it was understandable.

The body movements are very mysterious. This step is on the Kan position on the Bagua diagram, and the next step will be on the Xun position.

Sometimes you put your feet in the wrong place...

pat...

Someone fell down.

There were small stones on the ground and I slipped.

pat...

Someone fell down again.

Anyway, he practiced for an hour, but his speed didn't increase much, and he kept falling down.

It made someone think that this mysterious phantom was not training footwork, but resistance to falls...

In the end, he became a lazy guy who would lie down wherever he fell.

Lying on the ground with his arms and legs spread out, he looked at the blue sky.

It was as if he was being lined up by General Yuwen's men. His expression was numb, his eyes were lifeless, his body felt five pounds heavier, and he had no strength to stand up at all.

"How could this be? Practicing this footwork is even more difficult than practicing sword techniques! Are you kidding me?"

Ye Feng's wailing continued to echo in the small valley behind the mountain.

Alas, no matter how tired or hard it is, just think of yourself as an idiot. No matter how difficult or dangerous it is, just think of yourself as a shameless person.

As I said, it’s not easy to be a time traveler.

After resting for less than ten minutes, Ye Feng climbed up again with difficulty.

Once again, he devoted himself to the practice of resisting falls.

There has definitely been progress.

This can be seen from the number of times he falls and his gradually increasing speed.

Around noon, Ye Feng stopped practicing.

He took off his clothes and rushed into the cold pond next to him with his bare butt.

He plunged in with one dive.

"Comfortable! So happy!"

After soaking for half an hour, Ye Feng finally came out of the cold pond.
