The Strongest Urban Son-in-law
Chapter 1596 - 1624: Minghuo Steps In [First Update]
Ye Feng really is too arrogant. You know, although he’s a Daoist Lord with Super Two combat power, Daoist Qingzhu is a bona fide top-tier Infinite True God, without any embellishment, just one step away from Entering Dao Realm.
No matter how powerful Ye Feng is, it shouldn’t be possible for him to defeat Daoist Qingzhu, who is three levels higher than him, right?
Daoist Qingzhu’s eyes were filled with murderous intent. At less than eighty years old, he was already a top-tier Infinite True God, which is considered top-notch even in the Daoist School. Yet, he’s still oppressed by those in the Dao Sect and other Daoist Lords, who often possess special constitutions.
With their innate advantages, it’s hard for him to catch up. So when he saw a Daoist Lord talent like Ye Feng, Daoist Qingzhu was filled with jealousy, and his eyes revealed his murderous intent towards Ye Feng...
"Scum, I’m giving you one last chance to release Daoist Xuanming, or I will kill you!" Daoist Qingzhu shouted angrily.
However, Ye Feng was still full of disdain, "Why so much nonsense? If you want to fight, let’s fight. Kill me? You’re not qualified!"
"Courting death!" Daoist Qingzhu was instantly enraged, elevating his aura to the extreme.
Suddenly, a green Dao Artifact longsword appeared in his hand, exuding extremely fierce Sword Qi, which blossomed like one lotus after another, as if it were going to tear the world apart...
Yet, Ye Feng remained calm and relaxed, showing no sign of tension.
Just as Daoist Qingzhu was about to make a move, a figure appeared in the void, and a powerful oppression fell like a massive waterfall from the Nine Heavens, crushing down on Qingzhu’s body. That person roared, "Stop!"
Qingzhu’s aura weakened instantly, like a deflated ball. Everyone was stunned to see that person: "Daoist Minghuo!"
Indeed, it was Daoist Minghuo. Upon seeing the two Dao Patterns on Ye Feng’s forehead, Minghuo was taken aback, asking in confusion, "What’s going on here? What’s all this fuss about?"
Daoist Qingzhu glared at Ye Feng, "Minghuo Senior Brother, it’s this scum who actually wants to kill Daoist Xuanming! He simply looks down on our Daoist School, I ask you, Minghuo Senior Brother, to take action and slay this little beast!"
Daoist Minghuo looked at Ye Feng, his face showing no emotion, and asked in a fairly calm voice, "Young man, one hand clapping makes no sound. If you wanted to kill Daoist Xuanming, there must be a reason, right?"
Ye Feng replied calmly, "Let the people around speak, so you can’t say I’m lying!"
Then, Daoist Minghuo casually looked at someone in the True God Realm, "You, tell us what happened. If there’s any falsehood, I assure you, you will meet a bloody end on the spot!"
Upon hearing Daoist Minghuo’s words, that True God Realm martial artist nodded repeatedly, hastily explaining the entire incident without any embellishments. After listening, Daoist Xuanming, Daoist Qingzhu, and others looked increasingly uncomfortable, while Daoist Minghuo’s face grew darker, with anger flashing in his eyes.
Daoist Qingzhu glared at Ye Feng, saying, "Minghuo Senior Brother, this scum is so arrogant just because he’s a Daoist Lord!"
"Shut up!" Daoist Minghuo roared, then raised his hand and smacked it hard across Daoist Qingzhu’s face, the crisp and resounding slap echoing clearly around them, leaving everyone stunned.
Daoist Qingzhu was also dumbfounded, never expecting Daoist Minghuo to slap him directly.
Daoist Minghuo angrily said, "Daoist Xuanming, that bastard, didn’t even listen to people finish their words before trying to make them leave, almost making our Daoist School lose a Daoist Lord talent! Even if Daoist Xuanming died a hundred times, he wouldn’t be worth a Daoist Lord talent! Qingzhu, you too, acted without understanding the situation, wanting to harm Ye Feng. Tell me, wasn’t it right for me to slap you?"
Daoist Qingzhu’s face was extremely ugly, but he nodded instead of speaking.
Afterward, Daoist Minghuo turned to Ye Feng, his expression very gentle, "Brother Ye Feng, could you give me face and release Daoist Xuanming?" Ye Feng nodded slightly, "Okay..."
As soon as he said that, Ye Feng released Daoist Xuanming. After all, Daoist Minghuo had shown a good attitude towards him. Ye Feng is someone who responds to kindness, not force. If others respect you a little, it would be foolish to be aggressive.
Upon being released, Daoist Xuanming breathed a sigh of relief. Daoist Minghuo looked sternly at Daoist Xuanming, "Xuanming, kneel down and apologize to Junior Brother Qingshan right now!"
"Apologize to him?" Daoist Xuanming was completely dumbfounded, pointing at Qingshan, incredulously asking.
"Nonsense! Who else? Qingshan kindly reminded you, yet you wouldn’t let him finish his words. You tell me if you deserved what happened. Had you listened to him, none of this would have occurred. If you don’t apologize, fail to make Brother Ye Feng happy, and don’t join our Daoist School, I will report this matter to the elders and let them handle you!"
Hearing Daoist Minghuo’s words, Daoist Xuanming was startled, his face growing increasingly grim and angry, gritting his teeth, but eventually, he agreed, "Fine! I will apologize, I’ll apologize!"
Daoist Xuanming trembled all over, kneeling on the ground, "Brother Qingshan, I’m sorry, it’s my fault. I shouldn’t have been so impulsive without listening to you finish. It’s all my mistake, please forgive me..."
Qingshan shook his head, "It’s okay..."
Inside, Daoist Xuanming was seething with rage, transferring all his anger onto Ye Feng, vowing in his heart to seek revenge.
Afterward, Daoist Minghuo turned to Daoist Qingzhu, "Qingzhu Junior Sister, you also need to apologize to Ye Feng!"
Daoist Qingzhu looked unwilling but still said to Ye Feng, "Brother Ye Feng, I’m sorry, I was in the wrong..."
Ye Feng shook his head lightly, "Let’s leave it at that..." Daoist Minghuo seemed reasonable, so of course, Ye Feng would give him face.
Daoist Minghuo laughed heartily, "Very well, Brother Ye Feng, you won’t need to go through the second round of the examination. Let this be my apology, you can proceed directly to the third round, and after the examination, we’ll head to the Daoist School together, how about that?"
"Alright!" Ye Feng nodded. After hearing Ye Feng agree, Daoist Minghuo sighed with relief, worried that if Ye Feng hadn’t calmed down and left in anger, it would have been a great loss for him...
