The Zhou Family is located in Lingnan, where martial arts prosper, not to mention their wealth in the Mortal World reaching hundreds of billions.
More importantly, the Zhou Family is an Ancient Martial family with many Martial Arts Strong People.
The Zhou Family Head is even a Peak Battle King Warrior.
Him making a move three times is equivalent to having three get-out-of-jail-free cards!
Even Hua Zhongjing and Lady Lan Xiang showed some concession, though the Hua Family and Medicine King Valley are strong.
However, they do not have a Peak Battle King Warrior to hold the fort, unable to confront the Zhou Family head-on.
They all looked to Ye Qingfeng, awaiting his choice.
Zhou Qilin was full of confidence; the Zhou Family is a contemporary great martial family, enduring three centuries without decline, now with the Family Head as a Peak Battle King Warrior, how prosperous the family is.
He thought Ye Qingfeng would surely make a wise choice.
Unexpectedly, Ye Qingfeng shook his head and said:
"I only want thousand-year-old medicine, spiritual objects, and spiritual medicine. I refuse all other demands."
The crowd was shocked; no one expected Ye Qingfeng to discard the olive branch from the Hua Family and Medicine King Valley like refuse.
He even dared to reject the Zhou Family's invitation, this was the Lingnan Zhou Family!
Zhou Qilin's face still maintained a smile, but a shade of gloom flickered in his eyes.
This was the first time in his life someone had refused him face to face.
Zhou Qilin's eyes shone several times, finally laughed heartily: "Brother Chen has made his decision, I naturally won't persuade further. But my Zhou Family's promise remains valid."
Hua Zhongjing and Miss Lan Xiang both shook their heads and sighed lightly, seeming quite regretful.
After that, even if someone came to negotiate prices, Ye Qingfeng ignored them all, money meant nothing to him.
"Quite interesting, I rather want to see what kind of setup this Martial Arts Tournament is!"
Ye Qingfeng's gaze, as boundless as the starry sky, fell upon the entire manor.
He naturally aimed to take the thousand-year-old herbs from the Hua Family and Medicine King Valley, at that time, they would be useful for breaking through the Taoist Body.
Nine Tribulations Immortal Venerable follows the heart against the tide, does not cultivate for afterlife, only controls the present life, decisive in killing.
Previously, Ye Qingfeng did not seize by force because there was nothing in this world to catch his interest.
Now he just needed spiritual medicine, why care about the likes of the Hua Family, he could just leave them some Spiritual Medicine Recipe at most.
If bound by rules, then that would not be called cultivation.
A strong person transcends rules and restraints.
While Ye Qingfeng eyed the Hua Family and others, unbeknownst to him, others were watching and shaking their heads in secret sighs.
'This kid is in trouble; the Zhou Family is no charitable folk, truly think Zhou Qilin will let you off?'
Many martial artists chuckled mockingly in their hearts.
The Zhou Family is one of the top families among the Eight Great Martial Arts Families of Lingnan, a position built step by bloody step through untold slaughter and plunder.
Someone like Ye Qingfeng, who seems weak yet possesses treasures, how could the Zhou Family let him go?
Lei Zhenzi sighed deeply in secret.
He had his sights on Ye Qingfeng long ago, but feared Iron Hand and did not act; now that Ye Qingfeng was targeted by the Zhou Family, there was no longer a chance for him.
As evening came swiftly, seeing no one else approaching, Ye Qingfeng packed up the stall, leisurely heading towards his accommodation.
The surrounding martial artists avoided him as if he were a plague, acting as if they had not seen him at all.
Ye Qingfeng paid it no mind, confident that he could slash through any and all plots and schemes with a single sword.
"Ah, you finally came back, we've been waiting for you for ages. We're starving."
Inside the room, he found Zhou Xinyu and Wu Yuqing sitting on the bed.
"How did you find me?"
Ye Qingfeng spoke calmly.
"Humph, you reckless fool, bumbling in without knowing anything, if I didn't come to check on you, wouldn't you be swallowed whole, flesh and bones?"
Zhou Xinyu rolled her eyes.
Wu Yuqing covered her mouth, giggling: "Xinyu talks tough, but she's been worried about you for a long time."
Zhou Xinyu's face immediately flushed red, angry and embarrassed, she pretended to hit, while Wu Yuqing quickly dodged away.
Ye Qingfeng smiled, he didn't think Zhou Xinyu liked him, after all, they had only met once.
But Zhou Xinyu came to help him, a newly-met friend, showing that this cold-faced goddess was quite kind at heart.
"Alright, alright, no more talking, let's hurry out for a meal."
Zhou Xinyu spread her arms wide, calling charmingly.
"Just as well eat and see you off, there are many fierce people in the manor now, if you offend one, you might not even have a complete body left."
"You've seen Iron Hand's prowess, haven't you? Besides, my female driver is also quite a formidable martial artist."
Ye Qingfeng chuckled lightly.
Jiang Xiantao immediately felt an urge to kill rise up within her.
"Sister Xiantao is strong, but can she compete against so many powerful warriors? Besides, do you really want to always hide behind your bodyguard and a woman?"
Zhou Xinyu widened her beautiful eyes, mocking with a refutation.
"I don't see anything wrong with that."
Ye Qingfeng spread his hands, appearing completely indifferent.
"Ye Qingfeng, just listen to Xinyu! Today I saw a few people fight at the drop of a hat, just like in TV shows, with dust flying and stones shattering."
Wu Yuqing on the side also advised.
"And Xinyu's brother, not only extremely handsome, but also seemingly highly respected by many martial artists!"
The experiences in recent days allowed Wu Yuqing to somewhat understand the martial world.
"Of course, Brother Qilin and Sister Feng Huang are both genius figures of our Zhou Family; Brother Qilin is highly regarded by many noble daughters of ancient martial families."
Zhou Xinyu explained.
"You need not worry about this guy; with Iron Hand around, there's no need at all."
Jiang Xiantao reassured the two girls.
Worrying about Ye Qingfeng was quite unnecessary.
His opponents were the ones who should be concerned.
Playing like a pig to eat a tiger, no, Ye Qingfeng was already a Divine Dragon in the Nine Heavens.
These people were just ants.
Though feeling quite stifled.
Jiang Xiantao naturally couldn't reveal Ye Qingfeng's identity.
After all, it was at her request that Ye Qingfeng restrained himself.
The group left the manor together and found a quiet place in Medicine King Town.
The two girls, especially annoyed that Ye Qingfeng would not heed advice, wanted to get him drunk.
Ye Qingfeng found it amusing.
Even without using his Spiritual Power, his physical body could indefinitely metabolize alcohol.
He simply couldn't get drunk.
In the end, it was Wu Yuqing and Zhou Xinyu who drank until their faces were flushed, rather enchanting.
"Alright, let's call it a day!"
Ye Qingfeng said, afterward sending the tipsy, shapely two girls back to the manor.
Lastly, Ye Qingfeng, with Jiang Xiantao and Iron Hand, strolled along a small pathway by the manor's lake.
The lights flickered on and off, the sound of water lapping, all was silent around, as if only the bird calls remained.
Jiang Xiantao suddenly tensed, a vague sense of foreboding in her heart.
"It's a bit too quiet around."
As a half-step War King Warrior, Jiang Xiantao was also alert.
"Guests to entertain tonight, I won't lift a finger."
Ye Qingfeng spread his hands, looking at Jiang Xiantao.
Wasn't this girl the one who told him not to act?
Then he would just watch.
