Chapter 47

The famous Zhang Yuntian was actually slashed away by Ye Xiwén with a single strike. This result was simply shocking, especially to the Zhang family's disciples, who could hardly believe that the Zhang Yuntian they revered like a god could not withstand Ye Xiwén's attack at all.

"Brother!" Zhang Yunfei was the first to react and ran over.

Ye Xiwén looked at Zhang Yunfei coldly and said, "He's not dead. Take him away quickly. Our Yiyuan Sect is not a place where the Zhang family can act recklessly. If you come to provoke us again next time, it won't be so easy to settle things."

"Get lost!"

"Still not leaving? Do you want to die? You Zhang family brats!"

"If you don't leave now, we won't be so polite!"

The disciples of the Yiyuan Sect started to jeer. The conflict between the Yiyuan Sect and the Zhang family had been going on for years, and both sides' disciples had a mutual dislike for each other. However, their strength was often evenly matched, so neither side would yield. This time, Zhang Yunfei came to the Yiyuan Sect to challenge their sect's experts, which was a deliberate provocation. After being slashed away by Ye Xiwén, even his brother couldn't match Ye Xiwén.

Everyone could see that if Ye Xiwén hadn't held back, Zhang Yuntian would have been split in two by that strike.

The news of Ye Xiwén's complete victory over Zhang Yuntian quickly spread throughout the entire Yiyuan Sect. Many people found it hard to believe. Who was Ye Xiwén? Now, most people in the Yiyuan Sect knew who Ye Xiwén was—the champion of the sect's internal competition, who could dominate among the inner disciples. However, to the core disciples, he was just a newcomer.

Defeating Zhang Yunfei was one thing, but Zhang Yunfei was only the champion of the Zhang family's current generation. Although the strength gap seemed significant, with Zhang Yunfei being slashed away by Ye Xiwén, who was Zhang Yuntian? Even among the core disciples of the Zhang family, he was one of the top five experts, with a far-reaching reputation. How could such a formidable expert be completely defeated by Ye Xiwén?

However, as the news spread quickly through the mouths of the many onlookers and was verified by multiple sources, everyone had to admit that Zhang Yuntian had indeed been completely defeated by Ye Xiwén.

Only then did Ye Xiwén's reputation truly rise in the Yiyuan Sect. Although he was the champion of the internal competition, his reputation had gradually faded after he advanced to the core disciples and went out to train. The champion of the internal competition was indeed a glorious title for the inner and outer disciples, but it wasn't particularly outstanding among the core disciples, as they were all the best from previous years' inner disciples, including many champions.

However, after Ye Xiwén completely defeated Zhang Yuntian, his reputation truly soared, making him a name to be reckoned with in the Yiyuan Sect, truly comparable to the super geniuses among the core disciples.

In the depths of the Yiyuan Sect, in the sect leader's hall, Ye Kongming sat below, slightly frowning. Above him was a middle-aged man in a purple robe, with a concealed aura, appearing like an ordinary middle-aged man.

But everyone in the Yiyuan Sect knew that this was the sect leader Lin Zhantian, who had absolute power in the Yiyuan Sect, with the authority to make life and death decisions.

"Kongming, I didn't expect Xiwén to be so outstanding. When I saw him a couple of years ago, he was still ordinary. I didn't expect him to change so much!" Lin Zhantian sighed. "With his current strength, he can rank among the top core disciples in the sect!"

"This is not surprising. After all, he is that person's child. Once he opened up, it's not surprising!" Ye Kongming said calmly, as if he had foreseen this.

Mentioning that person, Lin Zhantian didn't say anything more. After a pause, he continued, "I have already broken through and will soon return to the main sect. As for Qingfeng Mountain, I hope you will take over as the sect leader. I will recommend you to the sect!"

"You know I have no interest!" Ye Kongming said indifferently.

"I know you have no interest, but this is where we grew up. I can't trust it to anyone else!" Lin Zhantian said.

"Can I refuse?" Ye Kongming still spoke in a calm tone.

"No!" Lin Zhantian said.

The two spoke as if they were talking to the air, each speaking on their own.

"Great job, kid! I didn't expect you to beat Zhang Yuntian into such a mess. Hahaha, he probably won't have the face to show himself anymore!" Ye Ruxue laughed out loud.

"Alright!" Ye Xiwén said indifferently.

"I'm back!" A cheerful laugh came from outside the door. "Little brother, I've heard about your deeds. Haha, that Zhang Yuntian was completely helpless against you!"

As he spoke, Ye Feng, dressed in a martial outfit, strode in, having just returned from the trial in the back mountain of Qingfeng Mountain.

"That's really satisfying!" Ye Feng laughed heartily.

"Brother, do you have a grudge against Zhang Yuntian?" Ye Xiwén asked.

Ye Feng smiled coldly and said, "Of course. We once clashed in the back mountain of Qingfeng Mountain. At that time, I had just advanced to the core disciple. I had just found a precious herb when that bastard ambushed me, nearly killing me with his hidden weapons!"

As he spoke, Ye Feng's aura involuntarily released, showing that he was already at the peak of the ninth level of the Later Heaven realm, just one step away from entering the先天 realm.

Ye Feng had been at the peak of the eighth level of the Later Heaven realm for several years, preparing for the core disciple competition. After accumulating his cultivation for years, he released it all at once, breaking through to the peak of the ninth level of the Later Heaven realm in a short time. This method was to consolidate his cultivation, laying a solid foundation to prepare for advancing to the先天 realm.

Ye Feng's aura was thick and powerful, far surpassing that of ordinary experts at the peak of the ninth level of the Later Heaven realm.

"I originally planned to settle accounts with that bastard during the core disciple competition, but you avenged me, saving me the trouble!" Ye Feng didn't take Zhang Yuntian seriously at all, as his strength was far above Zhang Yuntian's.

"Tsk tsk, Brother, you didn't see how arrogant that kid was, and how badly he was taught a lesson by little brother!" Ye Ruxue said with a smile.

"Don't talk about little brother. You should focus more on your cultivation. Now that little brother has caught up with you, you should hurry up and cultivate to the peak of the Later Heaven realm and join the main sect!" Ye Feng said sternly.

"Understood!" Ye Ruxue, who had a more carefree personality, still listened to Ye Feng.

However, Ye Ruxue's mind was never fully focused on cultivation, and it was unclear how much she had taken in.
