The hall fell silent in an instant.

Everyone looked towards the door at the same time, and a red figure quietly approached. Perhaps because of her weakness, her face was not rosy, and even looked pale, unlike that of an ordinary person.

But she moved freely and looked no different from everyone else.

Everyone looked a little subtle.

Ye Fei stepped into the hall. Before she could speak, Lou Qi frowned and snorted coldly, "Ye Fei, what are you doing here?"

"Of course, come and get my things." Ye Fei pointed at the purple grass in Liu Mengqing's hand:

"This is the spiritual herb I planted in the medicinal field. Today, when I went to get it, I found it was gone. I never thought that it would end up in the hands of my junior sister. Junior sister, could you please return it to me?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? This is a gift from me to Sister Qingqing. It's not right to give something back once it's been given away!" Lou Qi said impatiently, "Can you please stop being unreasonable? You're so fussy about a single spiritual herb. No wonder Daddy is so annoyed with you. If you keep doing this, I'll be annoyed with you too."

"Senior Sister Ye, I'm sorry, I didn't know this was yours. Xiao Qi gave it to me, so I accepted it. If you mind, I'll give it to you now."

Liu Mengqing looked guilty, and while speaking, he did not forget to persuade: "Don't quarrel because of me. This matter is all my fault. For my sake, let it go."

Although she said so, she made no move to return the spiritual herb.

Ye Fei directly reached out: "Oh, I see, so where is my spiritual herb?"

Liu Mengqing choked. She didn't expect Ye Fei to be so straightforward. She was silent for a moment, then reached out to hand over the spiritual herb. However, just as she raised her hand, Lou Qi stopped her:

"I've already told you that I've given the things to Sister Qingqing. You're going back now, aren't you ashamed?"

"Why are you giving away my things?" Ye Fei snatched the Purple Extreme Grass and looked down at Lou Qi: "Not only this Purple Extreme Grass, but also the other spiritual herbs you dug from my medicine field, you have to return them to me."

"Your things are mine, aren't they? Why do you want them back? Ye Fei, don't be too pushy!" Lou Qi looked at the Purple Extreme Grass that Ye Fei had just taken back, and felt a little hot on his face. Did this woman have to embarrass him like this?

He took all the spiritual herbs from her medicine field because she was so cold to him yesterday! He gave the things to Uncle Lin Jue early this morning, so where were the spiritual herbs?

I had wanted to show her some strength, but now, in front of so many people, she actually asked him to return it! She really wasn't a good person!

"Even brothers have to settle accounts, let alone you and me?" Ye Fei sneered, his face pale, and he seemed a little ruthless at the moment:

"Can't get the things out? It doesn't matter. You can return the spiritual herbs to me as spiritual stones. I picked those spiritual herbs myself. There are three third-grade herbs, eight second-grade herbs, and fifteen first-grade herbs. That's a total of 1,200 high-grade spiritual stones."

Lou Qi gritted his teeth, raised his head and stared at her without saying a word.

Liu Mengqing looked at the tense atmosphere between the two, and her eyes instantly turned red. Tears as big as beans rolled down her face. She quickly stepped forward and tugged at Ye Fei's sleeve: "Senior Sister, don't bother with Xiao Qi. He is still a child. You will hurt his self-esteem if you do this..."

When Liu Mengqing started crying, Lou Qi instantly became even angrier: "Ye Fei! What the hell are you doing? Not only did you bully me, but you also made Sister Qingqing cry. Do you want to be whipped again before you can stop being quiet?"

Sometimes, what a child says without restraint is what he really thinks.

He really doesn't care about Ye Fei as a mother.

However, Ye Fei just found it funny when she heard it.

How could she give them a second chance?

Seeing things getting out of hand, the surrounding disciples began to smooth things over: "It's just a few spiritual herbs. You're mother and son, why are you fussing over it?"

"Yes, Senior Sister Ye, let's forget about this matter. It's just a few spirit stones. He's your son. Why are you being so petty? This is too inhumane. Let's just forget about it."

"Yeah, yeah, forget it. Why bother being so aggressive?"

Everyone tried to smooth things over, and what they said was indeed out of line.

Ye Fei sneered. It was because she had a good temper in the past that she had let these people talk nonsense for so long. Now they were planning to blackmail her morally. They were really blinded.

"Yeah, it's just a few spirit stones. If you think it's not enough, why don't you give it to him?"

Everyone shut up instantly.

Ye Fei's gaze fell on the crying Liu Mengqing: "Junior Sister, since you like Lou Qi so much, you must be willing to pay me back the spirit stones for him, right?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes instantly fell on Liu Mengqing. Her expression froze, and her tears fell even more. She didn't say a word, and looked as aggrieved as she could be.

When Lou Qi saw this, he frowned fiercely and turned to glare at Ye Fei!

Ye Fei just looked at Liu Mengqing. Her gaze was too direct and sharp, making Liu Mengqing feel uncomfortable all over. But she knew that she couldn't answer now. If she responded, she would have to pay for the spirit stones!

She doesn't want to lose her spirit stones for a child!

Liu Mengqing was unwilling, and Ye Fei stared at her. The stalemate between the two sides made the atmosphere around them become subtle. Seeing more and more people staring at her, Liu Mengqing was almost unable to bear it when another voice rang out, breaking the atmosphere at the moment:

"What are you doing?"

Pei Linjue is here.

Liu Mengqing's eyes were red from crying, and she fell backwards weakly. Pei Linjue's eyes widened instantly, and he dodged and caught her!

"Little junior sister!"

Pei Linjue caught her before she fell to the ground and quickly felt her pulse. Finally, seeing her eyes red from crying, he felt even more distressed. He turned around and shouted without knowing the truth:

"Ye Fei! You really haven't changed your bad habits! You're targeting Junior Sister again! Don't you know that Junior Sister just finished replacing her golden elixir yesterday? You come here to embarrass her now. If something happens to her body again, how are you going to compensate her?"

"Everyone says that the disciples under Immortal Venerable Yunhan are extremely powerful and exceptionally skilled. But after meeting them today, I realized that the rumors aren't to be believed. They clearly stole something, and they simply came to get it. They didn't do anything wrong, and they didn't hurt anyone. Yet they're accusing them of giving them a hard time. How ridiculous!"

A cold voice reached everyone's ears. The man's voice was low and slightly hoarse. Everyone subconsciously looked in the direction of the voice. Even Ye Fei was a little surprised and hurried to look at the person who spoke for her.

The man was handsome, with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes. His dark pupils were filled with a hint of coldness. The blue and white disciple uniform on his body revealed his identity. He leaned against the pillar in the hall, looking at this side with a smile.

"Bai Wuhuo? Isn't this the new inner sect disciple?"

"Who is he? Why haven't I heard of him?"

"You don't even know him. He's the direct disciple of Elder Tianxu of Qinghua Peak. The elder brought him back personally not long ago."

"It is said that he is extremely talented. He is only 23 years old this year, but he has already reached the peak of foundation building. He is only one step away from forming a pill!"

Listening to the discussions of the disciples around him, Pei Linjue frowned: "This is our Jiuyao Peak's business, no outsiders need to interfere."
