Chapter 2105: Chapter 2105: Soaring Fame

"You’re not here to cause trouble?" Ye Feng looked at the Bull Demon Clan Chief and blinked.

"Cause trouble? How could that be!" The Bull Demon Clan Chief widened his eyes, "I’m here to apologize!"

Everyone was even more shocked upon hearing this.

The Bull Demon Clan was a major clan, possessing several Nine-Turn Heavenly Venerables, and their chief, a Nine-Turn Heavenly Venerable at the peak about to prove his way as a Dao Monarch, was supposed to be strong. Yet, they actually took the initiative to come and apologize to Ye Feng.

"Cough cough, no need to apologize, after all, I did kill a Four-Turn Heavenly Venerable and two Three-Turn Heavenly Venerables from your Bull Demon Clan." Ye Feng scratched his head, expecting it to be a fierce battle.

In the end, the other side actually came to apologize!

The Bull Demon Clan Chief cupped his hands and said, "Sect Master Ye, Ox Horn Heavenly Venerable and those Heavenly Venerables you killed were all black sheep of our clan. How could we have a conflict with you over this? In fact, we had to specially come to thank you for helping us remove the tumors!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Feng was speechless.

He could see that the Bull Demon Clan Chief and the others seemed to be wary of him.

After thinking it over, he understood.

The Bull Demon Clan must have gathered intelligence and learned that he had an old servant who was a Nine-Turn Heavenly Venerable at the peak, and was good friends with the Young City Lords of two hegemon-level forces, Tian Qi and Zhou Yan, having formidable backing.

That’s why they chose to surrender.

Understanding this, Ye Feng nodded quietly.

As the saying goes, you don’t hit a smiling face. Since the Bull Demon Clan Chief himself came to apologize, naturally, this matter could be handled properly without further deepening the conflict.

"Sect Master Ye, this is a gift we prepared to thank you for helping us remove some tumors from the Bull Demon Clan. Please accept it. Otherwise, we won’t be at ease."

The Bull Demon Clan Chief took out a storage ring.

Ye Feng thought for a moment and accepted it, then found that it contained several kinds of precious Immortal Gold and many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, with a total value exceeding ten billion Origin Stones.

"I accept your generous gift, and will definitely pay a visit in the future to express my gratitude!" Ye Feng cupped his hands and said.

"You’re too kind, you’re too kind! Sect Master Ye’s arrival will surely bring brilliance to our clan. We will be ready to welcome you anytime you come." The Bull Demon Clan Chief chuckled.

"Alright." Ye Feng nodded.

"We have other matters to attend to, so we’ll leave first." With that, the Bull Demon Clan Chief, ignoring the shocked looks of the people around, swaggered away with his followers.

"My goodness!"

"The Bull Demon Clan Chief actually came in person with several high-ranked Heavenly Venerables to apologize. Unbelievable."

"They’re wary of Ye Feng, after all, Ye Feng has an old servant who is a Nine-Turn Heavenly Venerable at the peak, suspected to be a Young City Lord of some hegemon-level power in Haizhou."

"No wonder."

"Having backing does make a difference."

The crowd buzzed with discussions, spreading this event throughout Soaring Sky City, causing the reputation of Misty Holy Sect and Ye Feng to soar, bringing in billions of Prestige Points.

[Prestige Points +200 million]

[Prestige Points +230 million]

Ye Feng listened to the continuous system prompt sounds in his ears and found them so pleasant, whether it was suppressing the Bull Demon Clan or the Bull Demon Clan apologizing in person, both had a sensational effect, bringing a huge amount of Prestige Points.

"Ye Feng, I didn’t expect you, kid, to also be someone with backing." Lin Daotong walked over, looking at Ye Feng with a complex expression.

Ye Feng scratched his head and said, "I don’t have any backing, it’s just rumors spread by others."

Lin Daotong rolled his eyes and said, "Since you have an old servant who is a Nine-Turn Heavenly Venerable at the peak, you naturally have hegemon-level backing. But if you want to keep it secret, I won’t ask much, don’t worry!"

Ye Feng touched his nose.

He really didn’t have hegemon-level backing!

If there was one, does the Radiant Daoist count?

On second thought, that guy was indeed a peak Dao Monarch hegemon-level powerhouse, although his current strength could only suppress most late Dao Monarchs, he’s still quite strong.

If not for fearing the Blood-Colored Ancient Tree, the Radiant Daoist could completely create a hegemon-level power.

"So this means I have backing too?"

Ye Feng thought to himself.

A moment later.

The group entered the True Dragon Commerce Association’s branch, seeing various Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures displayed on the shelves, including many treasures that could enhance one’s foundation, such as Heavenly Crystal Origin Stone Marrow, Tears of the Green Moon, and Dragon Pattern Jade Marrow.

Each piece was priced at over a hundred million Origin Stones.

"Isn’t this too expensive?" Ye Feng clicked his tongue.

"Not expensive at all. These Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that enhance the foundation are high-level Heavenly Venerable grade, several times more precious than those seen at the small auction a few days ago, and can increase the foundation limit to a greater extent," a gentle voice came.

Ye Feng looked towards the sound, and the voice was actually from the middle-aged woman in a crimson cheongsam who hosted the auction a few days ago.

"I am Longxue Ying."

"Sect Master of Misty Holy Sect, Ye Feng."

The two introduced themselves, while Zhang Tianyuan, Radiant Daoist, Tian Qi, Lin Daotong, and others just nodded to Longxue Ying without speaking.

"Friend Long, how many more treasures do you have like this? I want to buy a batch," Ye Feng said.

Longxue Ying chuckled, "I am merely a steward of the True Dragon Commerce Association, these things are not mine. Of course, our True Dragon Commerce doesn’t lack these treasures, you could buy ten at once without issue."

"Only ten?" Ye Feng blinked.

Longxue Ying was stunned, "Isn’t ten enough? That’s ten billion Origin Stones."

Ye Feng directly pulled out ten billion Origin Stones, piling them on the ground, releasing a thick aura of origin.

"Oh, ten billion jin of Origin Stones!"

"This Misty Holy Sect Leader is truly wealthy."

"Such extravagance!"

The guests purchasing treasures at the True Dragon Commerce Association were dumbfounded upon seeing the Origin Stones amassed like a mountain.

Even Longxue Ying froze a bit.

Though she is a Nine-Turn Heavenly Venerable at peak and a steward of True Dragon Commerce, she has seen a hundred billion Origin Stones, but those were not hers.

Strictly speaking, she is just a member of True Dragon Commerce, with a personal wealth presumably around ten billion Origin Stones, yet Ye Feng could casually take out.

This truly makes one envious!

"This is a true tycoon!" Longxue Ying’s heart was shaken, seeing Ye Feng, feeling that he looked even more handsome than before, almost wanting to throw herself into his arms.

Ye Feng coughed and said, "Friend Long, I wish to purchase treasures like Heaven Crystal Origin Stone Marrow, Jade Tear of Moon, Dragon-pattern Jade Marrow that can enhance foundations, how many do you have in your branch? I wish to buy in large quantities."

Longxue Ying gulped, "We can now offer ten, how many more do you want?"

Ye Feng said, "Actually, I want to buy around fifty pieces, can you provide them?"

"Fifty... fifty?"

The crowd was astonished.

That’s fifty billion Origin Stones!

This Ye Feng, is he not too wealthy? Even a poorer Dao Monarch couldn’t possibly take out so much Origin Stones at once. After all, most who recently broke through Dao Monarch have almost exhausted their family assets, not as wealthy as some veteran Nine-Turn Heavenly Venerables!

Longxue Ying was internally turbulent.

Heavens!

A fifty billion-source rocks big deal!

She must secure it!

Patting her proud bosom, Longxue Ying looked at Ye Feng with glowing eyes, excitedly saying, "I will pack ten for you immediately, and the remaining forty will be transported from other branches. If Sect Master Ye could pay a deposit of ten billion Origin Stones today, it will be done."

"Isn’t that the deposit?" Ye Feng pointed at the ten billion Origin Stones on the ground.

"Great, I will arrange it for you right away!" Longxue Ying hastily instructed someone to collect the ten billion Origin Stones, then packed the ten treasures like Heaven Crystal Origin Stone Marrow, Jade Tear of Moon, Dragon-pattern Jade Marrow from the shelves and handed them to Ye Feng.

Afterwards.

Longxue Ying quickly contacted stewards at other branches, utilizing internal permissions to transfer similar Dragon-pattern Jade Marrow treasures from over there.

In an ancient city.

A Nine-Turn Heavenly Venerable pinnacle steward carried three top Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, personally going out to escort them.

In another ancient city, similar events occurred.

Half a day later.

Various Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures arrived one after another at Soaring Sky City, delivered to Ye Feng, totaling fifty pieces with the previous ten.

The total price reached fifty billion Origin Stones.

"This is the balance payment," Ye Feng displayed extravagance beyond imagination, placing the remaining forty billion Origin Stones on the ground, piled as high as a mountain, tongue-tied.

"It’s intolerable!"

"A Five-turn Heavenly Venerable actually took out tens of billions of Origin Stones, truly extravagant beyond measure!"

"It’s abnormal, too abnormal!"

"Remember, that person is Ye Feng, he’s the Sect Master of Misty Holy Sect in Haizhou, accompanied by an old servant of Nine-Turn Heavenly Venerable peak, suspected to be the young leader of a hegemon-level force privately on a venture."

"No wonder he’s so wealthy!"

"But doesn’t even an ordinary hegemon-level force young leader possess such wealth? I feel the backing behind Ye Feng must be at least Dao Monarch peak."

The onlookers erupted into fervent discussion.

Ye Feng, Zhou Yan, Tian Qi, and the others heard this and silently glanced at the Radiant Daoist beside them.

This guy is indeed at the peak of Dao Monarch.

Only Lin Daotong didn’t understand.

After all, even though he squeezed into Ye Feng, Tian Qi, and Zhou Yan’s small group, he was still an outsider.

"I have some matters to attend to, please excuse me."

Ye Feng cupped his hands towards everyone and entered the secret room prepared for him by the True Dragon Commerce Association.

Swoosh!

Ye Feng closed his eyes, and a thread of consciousness carrying fifty pieces of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures entered the Three Realms Universe, arriving at the headquarters of the Misty Holy Sect to find the core disciples.

Liang Wanfen, Liang Wanrou, Liang Wanyu, Xia Wenwen, Zhou Teng, Ke Anqing, Kong Cheng, Li Yiyi, Zhang Tianyuan, Ding Qingshu, Wu Shu, Xu Qingying, Luan Si, Dan Hanyu, Chu Tianlan, Ge Yuanliang, Xu Huaigang, Ye Qinglian, Yao Changsheng...

They are the elites among each generation of disciples.

Each of them starts with several times the ordinary Invincible Supreme Combat Power, some have already approached ten times the power.

"Once you refine these top-grade Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, you can quickly enhance your foundation. Then, breakthrough to the Heavenly Venerable level as soon as possible to defeat enemies, understand?"

Ye Feng placed high hopes on them.

"Yes."

The disciples nodded, selecting the most suitable piece from the fifty Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to seclude themselves for refining, strengthening their foundation, and then attacking the Heavenly Dao Realm.

With this done, Ye Feng withdrew his mind.

True Dragon Commerce Association Branch.

Ye Feng emerged from the secret room, met up with Radiant Daoist waiting outside, then went to the lounge to a chat over tea with Zhou Yan and Longxue Ying and others.

"Sect Master Ye, I wonder where your father is now?"

Longxue Ying subtly probed.

Ye Feng thought for a moment and said, "I don’t know."

He truly did not know.

Now, it’s been decades since his transmigration, and according to the timeline, all the old friends in Huaxia should have disappeared by now.

Thinking of this, he felt a sense of loss.

"You don’t know?" Longxue Ying was stunned, thinking that Ye Feng’s father should be at the peak of Dao Monarch, as for not knowing his whereabouts, it might be he is traveling.

At this moment, in the City Lord’s Mansion.

A figure shrouded in mist was conversing with the Young City Lord, Fei Hong.

"My son, you say Ye Feng truly took out fifty billion Origin Stones just to purchase Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to enhance the sect disciples’ foundation?"

"Yes, father." Fei Hong nodded.

The City Lord of Soaring Sky City shook his head, "Truly an incomprehensible character, with so many resources, Ye Feng could steadily advance to the peak of the Nine-Turn Heavenly Venerable, yet he used them all for disciples to enhance their foundation, who knows what he’s thinking."

Fei Hong bitterly smiled, "Who indeed knows?"

The City Lord of Soaring Sky City said, "With Ye Feng’s such abundant wealth, do you think he will bid for the Annihilation Daoist’s token at the event?"

Fei Hong thought for a moment and said, "Possibly. Dad, what do you think? Will he involve himself in this matter?"

The City Lord of Soaring Sky City said in a serious tone, "The grave of the Annihilation Daoist is a treacherous place. I suggest if you plan to befriend Ye Feng, persuade him not to compete."

"Ah?" Fei Hong was startled.

Even his father, the peak Dao Monarch, declared that Annihilation Daoist’s grave is a place of trouble, could it be that place is dangerous, even his father doesn’t want to compete?

The City Lord of Soaring Sky City said seriously, "Son, even heavily injured, Annihilation Daoist cannot die so quickly; his grave might be a trap."

Fei Hong was deeply shocked, "Dad, do you mean the Annihilation Daoist intentionally set a trap?"

"Could be," the City Lord of Soaring Sky City nodded, after a long silence, he said, "Even though it’s a Dao Venerable’s grave, very enticing, holding secrets to advancing to Dao Venerable, I wouldn’t dare join, but must be prudent. After all, I’m somewhat confident that I can advance to Dao Venerable myself."

"Really? Dad, are you really about to break through to Dao Venerable?" Fei Hong gasped.

"Yes, thirty percent chance!" the City Lord of Soaring Sky City nodded, "Even if I can’t advance to Dao Venerable, Half-Step Dao Venerable is certain, with ninety percent confidence."

Fei Hong was overjoyed.

His father has ninety percent confidence to advance to Half-Step Dao Venerable, thirty percent confidence to advance to Dao Venerable.

Once successfully advanced to Dao Venerable, Soaring Sky City could become the eleventh top hegemon power in Yunzhou.

"Dad, I think Ye Feng is a decent person, he’s familiar with Zhou Yan too, and behind Zhou Yan stands Chaos Daoist at peak Dao Monarch, capable of matching the Half-Step Dao Venerable stage Annihilation Daoist, incredibly powerful. Hence, I decide to befriend Ye Feng and Zhou Yan."

Fei Hong analyzed thus.

The City Lord of Soaring Sky City was very pleased and said, "My son, you’ve really grown up. Remember, for a hegemon-level power to endure, it needs not only a Dao Monarch to oversee but also to make connections with potential forces. Ye Feng, with his vast wealth and unlimited potential, is worth the investment."

Fei Hong grinned and said, "But with Ye Feng being so wealthy, won’t he become a target?"

"Naturally," the City Lord of Soaring Sky City nodded, speaking earnestly, "So, you must lend a helping hand."

"Understood." Fei Hong nodded.

In another mansion in Soaring Sky City.

Miaoyin Fairy from Miaoyin Square and the Young City Lord of Shenque City were sharing a room, their clothes entirely vanished, engaged in that maddening act.

"Fairy, you’re even more tender than before."

The Young City Lord of Shenque City said with a sly smile.

Miaoyin Fairy giggled and said, "Naughty! Why is your mouth getting sweeter and sweeter?"

The Young City Lord of Shenque City laughed, "Hasn’t my mouth always been sweet? After all, you’ve just tasted it."

"You’re awful!" Miaoyin Fairy playfully reproached, "Alright, let’s talk business. I just heard that the Misty Holy Sect Leader, Ye Feng, surprisingly took out fifty billion Origin Stones. Do you think he’s competing for the Annihilation Dao Venerable’s keepsake?"

"A country bumpkin with fifty billion Origin Stones, can he really compare with us?" The Young City Lord of Shenque City sneered, full of disdain.

"But that’s fifty billion, neither you nor I have that many Origin Stones," Miaoyin Fairy sighed.

The Young City Lord of Shenque City gently stroked Miaoyin Fairy’s flawless cheek and said, "My father told me that the tomb of the Annihilation Dao Venerable is sure to be the possession of our Shenque City and Miaoyin Square, so, to bid for the Annihilation Dao Venerable’s keepsake, he gave me a full hundred billion Origin Stones as fluid capital, enough for extravagance."

"That much?" Miaoyin Fairy exclaimed.

The Young City Lord of Shenque City said proudly, "My father is the City Lord of Shenque City, and my ancestor is a super strong Dao Venerable Realm, possessing countless riches. This time, the tomb of the Annihilation Dao Venerable is certain to be ours."

Miaoyin Fairy thought of something and said, "Our lord seemed to have mentioned that the Annihilation Dao Venerable isn’t completely dead, the tomb is likely a trap."

"My ancestor is aware of the trap, but a mere severely injured Dao Venerable, at a critical moment, our ancestor and your Miaoyin Square’s ancestor will take action from the shadows to completely extinguish the Annihilation Dao Venerable. By that time, our two forces can divide the amazing wealth left by a Dao Venerable," the Young City Lord of Shenque City laughed.

"In this way, we’re all contributors," Miaoyin Fairy blinked.

"Naturally!" The Young City Lord of Shenque City nodded earnestly, "Once our two forces divide the wealth of the Annihilation Dao Venerable and announce our alliance, we can become the first power in Yunzhou, dominating the entire Yunzhou."

"Good." Miaoyin Fairy giggled.

After a while, they continued their passionate dual cultivation.

No one else knew about this.

Other top hegemon powers in Yunzhou, though also interested in the tomb of the Annihilation Dao Venerable, did not contend for it knowing that Miaoyin Square and Shenque City were determined to win, thus avoiding direct conflict with these two powers.

Across Soaring Sky City.

More and more cultivators from outside arrived.

This was because the grand event was about to begin.

Several days later.

In the VIP courtyard of the True Dragon Commerce Association.

Ye Feng sat on a rocking chair, looking at the core members such as Liang Wanfen, Liang Wanrou, Liang Wanyu, Xia Wenwen, Zhou Teng, and Ke Anqing, smiling broadly.

"Very good, all of you have successfully increased your foundations by several times, excellent!"

Ye Feng couldn’t help but clap and laugh lightly.

The core disciples like Xia Wenwen had already multiplied their foundations several times to that of an ordinary Invincible Supreme, and now, they increased it several more times, reaching over a dozen times.

The strongest among them were Chu Tianlan, Ye Qinglian, and Yao Changsheng, whose foundations had reached twenty times that of an ordinary Invincible Supreme, and their combat power as well.

This combat power was quite formidable.

Although not as monstrous as the first echelon of the sect, like Mo Ying, Hu Feifei, and Huo Yunjie, it was still quite good.

"Go, head to the vicinity of Soaring Sky City, and hunt down those Second-Turn Heavenly Venerables who commit crimes, completing the tasks of overstepping and killing the enemy that I’ve assigned to you."

Ye Feng earnestly instructed.

"Yes." Chu Tianlan, Ye Qinglian, Yao Changsheng, and dozens of other talented disciples streamed out, flying towards the wilderness outside Soaring Sky City to search for opponents.

Ye Feng then opened the system panel.

[Number of Heavenly Venerables in the Sect: 109/100]

[Number of Sect Achievements: 50/100]

"The number of Heavenly Venerables meets the standard, but the number of achievements is only fifty. Once Chu Tianlan, Ye Qinglian, and the others complete their task of overstepping and killing the enemy, the sect’s achievement number should meet the standard. I’m really looking forward to it!"

Ye Feng licked his lips.

With fifty billion Origin Stones on the line, he couldn’t believe that he couldn’t complete this sub-task!

[PS: This Chapter’s word count is over 5300, good morning!]
