Chapter 16: Chapter 16 Give them a harsh one

The truth is always unexpected.
Long Tianxing noticed that Ye Feng was looking at him with no disdain in his eyes, but rather a sense of appreciation.
“You little rascal, with your red lips and white teeth, your skin is even better than a girl’s, what have you been eating to grow up like this?” Ye Feng pinched Long Tianxing’s face, finding it even smoother than a boiled egg.
Could a boy actually look like this?
It is said that a boy alone in the outside world should protect himself, and now it seems there is much sense in these words.
“Why are you just standing there foolishly, go and get to know your senior brothers and sisters.”
Ye Feng reminded him.
Long Tianxing looked at Ye Feng, overjoyed, “Sect Leader, you don’t despise me?”
“Why should I?”
Ye Feng asked in return.
Besides his silver hair and blue pupils, Long Tianxing’s facial features and appearance were no different from an ordinary person.
More importantly, how could he despise a disciple he had finally found?
“Sixth junior brother, come over here!”
At this moment, Shi Lei waved to Long Tianxing; as the eldest senior brother, he knew how to look after a new beginner.
“Okay.” Long Tianxing walked over nervously, introduced himself to Shi Lei and a few others, and got to know them.
Not far away.
Someone saw this scene and hurried back to the Long Family to report the news.
Meanwhile, in a teahouse near Hundred Sects Plaza, over a dozen young men and women were drinking tea.
“Eh, a foreigner from the Long Family!”
A young man in black sitting by the window saw this and suddenly spoke louder, drawing the attention of everyone in the teahouse.
“Indeed, it’s the foreigner from the Long Family. Heard his name is Long Tianxing, just over ten years old, born to his mother and a member of the Foreign Clan.”
“Throughout these years, demon creatures have been invading Whitefloat City frequently. He is not of our kind; who knows if he might be a spy for the Demon Race?”
A male disciple wearing the uniform of Heixuan Gate squinted his eyes and spoke maliciously.
The young man next to him in a white robe laughed and said:
“Brother Li, I know you at Heixuan Gate have been displeased with Misty Sect because of the Scarlet Serpent Sect affair. Today, why not use the fact that the Long Family’s foreigner has been recruited to stir up some trouble?”
“Great idea!”
The disciple from Heixuan Gate, surnamed Li, lit up.
“Let’s go, take a look.”
The disciples from various sects in the teahouse all set into action.
On Hundred Sects Plaza.
Ye Feng was waiting for the system to tally up.
“Ding, registered disciple ‘Long Tianxing’ received, middle-grade talent, mortal, possessing the growth-type talent ‘Blue Spirit Eyes’.”
With the system’s voice, Ye Feng saw the progress bar for the assessment period jump to “64%”.
“Just five more registered disciples to complete the mission, and three and a half days left, hopefully, there’s enough time.”
“However, Long Tianxing actually has the growth-type talent ‘Blue Spirit Eyes’. Although I don’t know what it is, it must be impressive.”
“And he has a middle-grade talent; his potential is quite good.”
“I’ve really stumbled upon a treasure this time!”
Thinking this, Ye Feng was in a great mood.
He decided to continue recruiting disciples there and to return to Misty Sect in the evening, so that Long Tianxing could use Spirit Eye Liquid to wash his eyes and embark on the path of cultivation as soon as possible.
“Misty Sect is recruiting a member of the Demon Race as a disciple; their intentions must be questioned. Do you wish to make enemies with the entire Whitefloat City?”
A discordant voice slowly drifted over.
Ye Feng looked up to see more than a dozen young men and women, dressed in the attire of various sects, arriving side by side.
The leading young man in black had a robust aura and had reached the Qi Refinement fifth layer.
“It’s people from Heixuan Gate and Xuenyun Sect!”
“My goodness! Both are middle-rank sects, with dozens of disciples in each; not just anyone can afford to provoke them.”
“The one in black seems to be the second disciple of Heixuan Gate, Li Hanshao, also considered a talent.”
The onlookers knew a lot.
Even without asking, these people had already revealed the identities of the newcomers.
“This must be Sect Master Ye! Long Tianxing is of the Demon Race; are you certain you want to recruit him into your sect?”
Li Hanshao said loudly.
Ye Feng sized up Li Hanshao and asked, “Have you eaten today?”
Li Hanshao was taken aback, “Not yet! But what does whether I’ve eaten or not have to do with Sect Master Ye?”
“Who I take as a disciple of the sect is none of your business, is it?” Ye Feng shot back.
Li Hanshao was momentarily at a loss for words.
A young man dressed in a white robe stepped forward and said with a holier-than-thou tone, looking down at Ye Feng:
“Recruiting disciples for the sect should not concern us, but Sect Master Ye should not accept a member of the Foreign Clan as an apprentice. Who knows if this person is a spy for the Demon Foxes?”
He was Wu De, the Second Disciple of the Xuenyun Sect.
Although Ye Feng was the Sect Leader of a Lower Rank sect, and most people feared him, Wu De was not the slightest bit afraid.
He, too, was at the fifth level of Qi Refinement, just two steps away from equaling the Cultivation Level of an ordinary Sect Leader from a Lower Rank sect. Why should he fear this mortal Sect Leader, Ye Feng?
“Long Tianxing is a spy for the Demon Foxes?”
The onlookers’ faces changed drastically.
Around Whitefloat City lies a continuous range of mountains harboring numerous Demon Foxes, which annually converge on set times to infiltrate Whitefloat City and cause unrest, keeping the residents on edge.
Therefore, the people in the city harbor a deep dislike for Demon Foxes.
Upon hearing that Long Tianxing might be a spy for the Demon Foxes, the onlookers all looked at him warily.
Long Tianxing, stared at by numerous unusual gazes, quickly lowered his head.
He was very worried.
What if Ye Feng kicked him out of the Misty Sect? Wouldn’t that mean he’d lose his sect?
This thought deeply hurt Long Tianxing.
Ye Feng looked at the downcast Long Tianxing, then at the disciples of the three major sects who were closing in menacingly, and felt a surge of anger.
Is it easy for me to accept a disciple?
Day by day, all they do is cause trouble!
“Eh, you even have a Demon Fox here! This is a genuinely dangerous creature!” Li Hanshao, the second disciple of the Heixuan Gate, pointed at the Little White Fox in Li Jiaojiao’s arms, feigning fear as he retreated three steps.
“Xiao Bai is so cute, where’s the danger?”
Li Jiaojiao, too, felt somewhat aggrieved, pouting her lips.
“What nonsense! This is our Misty Sect’s Mountain Guardian Spirit Beast, very sensible. Xiao Bai, be a good girl, give them a fierce one.” Ye Feng picked up the Little White Fox, lifted her over his head.
Little White Fox blinked her innocent large eyes, as if understanding what was expected of her, she symbolically bared her teeth at the disciples of Heixuan Gate and Xuenyun Sect, showing off her fierce little milk teeth.
“Wow, so cute!”
Someone in the crowd exclaimed with emotion.
Immediately after, the disciples of the Heixuan Gate and Xuenyun Sect couldn’t keep their composure.
Such an adorable White Fox indeed did not seem threatening.
So, they shifted their focus and pointed at Long Tianxing, saying, “He is from the Foreign Clan, an outsider with a heart different to ours. We advise Sect Master Ye to be careful and must kick him out…”
“Enough! Illusory Step Bright Palm.”
Ye Feng could no longer tolerate these disciples who were deliberately making trouble. He started with an opening move, and then came a sweeping palm.
“Tch! A mere mortal, I won’t even look at you; you can’t even hit me… Agh!”
Li Hanshao deliberately stepped forward, intending to bump into Ye Feng’s palm and knock him down with his chest.
But before he could finish speaking, he felt like he had been hit by a wild ox. With a wail, he was sent flying five or six meters away.
“Hiss!”
Everyone’s eyes widened in shock.
A mortal with not the slightest fluctuation of Spiritual Energy had actually sent the physically strong Li Hanshao flying so far!
“Eh!”
Ye Feng finally realized he was unusually strong.
But he didn’t know why.
“System, why have I become stronger?” Ye Feng quickly asked in his mind.
“The host is at the Peak of the ninth level of Qi Refinement, naturally strong.” The System explained coldly, then it became silent again.
Ye Feng: “…”
He was speechless, clearly unable to feel any Cultivation Level, but why did the System always say so.
Could it be that all the Cultivation Level had been invested in his strength?
Otherwise, how could he have sent someone flying five or six meters with just a palm strike…
Could it be that Li Hanshao from Heixuan Gate had done it on purpose, aiming to extort Spirit Stones from him?
Realizing this, Ye Feng’s eyes suddenly widened.
