Chapter 536 - I’m not targeting him
Translator: Aran
This unexpected change had drawn over a lot of people’s attention. All eyes were looking over in the direction of the ancient tree.
Little Nine was biting the heel of Hu Bugui, his throat producing a threatening low roar while the greatest thief of Clear River Domain, whose fame spreads far and wide, was very embarrassingly hopping up and down, struggling to fling the dog away.
And that sentence that rebuked Xiao Yunlong obviously came from the mouth of Great Thief Hu Bugui.
Xiao Yunlong’s skin immediately flushed with embarrassment.
Because only he knew that the reason he was qualified to enter this Enlightened Tea Garden was not because he had received recognition for his strength and aptitude, but because he was given the role of greeting visitors and showing them around. However, he had always been arrogant. Thinking that he was in the territory of his own sect and seeing that the several female disciples of Hundred Spirits Sect were naive and easy to bully, especially the stunningly beautiful Liu Ruxin, he came over to show his presence and conveniently get to know them.
Hu Bugui’s remark, like drawing blood with one prick, poked right into the heart of Xiao Yunlong.
But at this moment, he recognized Hu Bugui. Facing the greatest thief of the domain, he indeed was a little afraid, and dared not give a retort.
However, when Xiao Yunlong’s eyes fell on Ye Qingyu who was laughing loudly at him, he flew into a rage out of humiliation and erupted, “Who are you? Which sect are you from? How dare you infiltrate the Enlightenment Tea Party?”
Xiao Yunlong thought he had found a push over.
Because he vaguely remembered that, when he personally went to the odd job worker disciple area a few days ago to invite the Immortal God Emperor Sect’s descendant Nan Tieyi, he had seen this thick browed and big eyed youngster. He also knew of the reason that he was allowed up Greater One Peak. Without Nan Tieyi this young emperor of the past, a trash fish like Ye Qingyu would never be allowed to enter Greater One Peak, or even into the Enlightened Tea Garden.
Xiao Yunlong also guessed that this time, Ye Qingyu also relied on Nan Tieyi to get in.
A trash fish like him, Xiao Yunlong thought he could absolutely provoke.
Following this one sentence, suddenly all eyes shifted to Ye Qingyu.
The noise over at this side had aroused the attention of many people within Enlightenment Tea Garden.
In the distance, the young disciple of the Nangong family had already appeared, and the flame-mark young man and his gang were also looking over at this direction from afar, laughing and pointing.
Ye Qingyu’s laughter stopped abruptly.
This Xiao Yunlong really is a cowardly idiot. He did not dare scold Hu Bugui, and instead directed all his rage onto me?
Under the watchful gaze of countless eyes, Ye Qingyu smiled and said, “Which sect I am in is none of your business, move aside, do not hinder my view of admiring the flowers and understanding the Dao.”
As soon as Xiao Yunlong heard these words, he was stumped, an expression of disbelief crossing his face.
“You... little trash, how dare you talk to me like that? Trash you want to die?” His face flushed like a pig's liver, so gloomy that they were almost leaking out water. In front of so many people, he was ridiculed by a trash fish that was only worthy of being in the odd job worker disciple area. The fury within Xiao Yunlong’s heart had almost drowned his last trace of reasoning ability.
He still had not recognized that the thick browed and big eyed youngster was the former Ye Qingyu.
And Ye Qingyu was clearly aware of this.
Before, he was a little bit worried that Xiao Yunlong may see through his identity. After all, when that trash chased after him that day he had summoned the [Greater One Dispersing Light Sword] and very soon after found his whereabouts, so Ye Qingyu thought that he had mastered some sort of secret technique, but now it seems that... Ye Qingyu might have been too paranoid. What happened that day was probably just a coincidence.
“As the host, you insulted the guests like this. The Greater One Sect disciples really have an extraordinary style. You’re not even worthy of being trash.” Ye Qingyu sneered coldly, showing no weakness and not at all taking Xiao Yunlong’s words to heart.
The purpose of ascending Greater One Peak this time was to create a disturbance. Now that everything was in place, he was not at all afraid of causing conflict.
But the female disciples of Hundred Spirits Sect did not know about this.
Seeing that a dispute had been caused because of them, the eldest senior sister and junior sisters all felt a little uneasy.
“Gongzi, please calm down, it’s a small matter, do not spoil your relationship, quickly please leave.” Eldest senior sister hurriedly came over to persuade Ye Qingyu.
For some reason, compared with the overbearing and arrogant Xiao Yunlong, she felt that Ye Qingyu was much easier to speak to. Additionally, Ye Qingyu’s clothing and jewellery were very ordinary and not at all like a successor of a super powerful sect. Rather, he was dressed like a servant. Perhaps it was owing to his not very high status, when she was speaking to him she was furtively winking, motioning Ye Qingyu to not get into a conflict with a Greater One Sect disciple, to avoid being at a disadvantage.
This eldest senior sister was also kind-hearted.
“Hahaha, Gongzi? What kind of Gongzi is he? You may not know that this little trash is a trash fish that should belong at the foot of the mountain. If it was not because of Immortal God Emperor Sect’s young emperor, he would not even be allowed onto the Greater One Peak, yet he dares act impudently and deliberately disrupted the Enlightenment Tea Party. Don’t you think of leaving here today,” Xiao Yunlong said with a mocking laugh.
He thought that he had uncovered Ye Qingyu’s background.
The moment the other people heard Xiao Yunlong’s words, they had lost interest straight away.
historical
Many people had thought that the fact that this thick browed and big eyed youngster dared to act so arrogantly and dared to face up to a Greater One Sect disciple was because he was a successor of some super famous sect, which would have been an exciting fight for them to watch, but he was actually from such an unremarkable background. It seemed that this young man’s arrogance was nothing but an ignorant and stupid behaviour.
Many of the gazes that were casted on Ye Qingyu had already contained an undisguised sympathy.
But as soon as Old Fish heard Xiao Yunlong’s remarks, he could not help getting involved. “Small trash fish? What bullsh*t, he is the successor of the best sect, the Thunder and Lightning Sect, in the great wide world. He has a superior status and a noble identity, you little thing is the trash fish of Greater One Sect, what rights do you have to speak to my disciple...”
Thunder and Lightning Sect?
What kind of sect was that?
He had never heard of it.
How could there be such a sect in this universe, within the alliance of domains?
There were more and more onlookers gathering around, their eyes sweeping back and forth between cross-eyed Old Fish and thick browed, big eyed Ye Qingyu, beginning to suspect the fact that this youngster really had an impressive background?
The situation suddenly became interesting.
At this moment, the other Greater One Sect disciples in Enlightenment Tea Garden also received the news and came darting over.
In order to ensure that the Enlightened Tea Party would smoothly progress, the Greater One Sect, as the host, had of course selected a lot of young elite disciples of the sect to attend the tea party. This was firstly to maintain order, and secondly to show the power of the younger generation in the sect, so within moments numerous Greater One Sect young disciples had already gathered around Xiao Yunlong.
As well as two middle-aged men clad in the silver elder battle robe of Greater One Sect.
These were two Elders with real power in the inner sect.
“What’s going on?” An elder in silver robe slowly walked over, casting a stern glance over Ye Qingyu and the others, then his eyes fell on Xiao Yunlong as he asked in a deep voice.
“Reporting to Elder Xie, this kid’s status is lowly, he is sneaking around with bad intentions. He for some reason had infiltrated the tea garden and is deliberately being disruptive, I tried to persuade him, but not only did he not listen, he arrogantly insulted disciple as a trash.” Xiao Yunlong, in front of these two powerful elders, was no longer arrogant and wilful, and respectfully answered.
But his words were obviously to shirk responsibility and to plant the blame on Ye Qingyu.
“That's not it, Elder Xie, this Gongzi made an unintentional mistake...” Eldest senior sister knew that things were going to be bad.
In her opinion, Ye Qingyu, who got involved because of them, was considered a pitiful person. And although he was reckless and stupid, this was not a crime that should be punished with death. If he really was accused of deliberately being disruptive and insulting Greater One Sect disciples, then given the way that Greater One Sect usually handles matters these years, he most likely would be killed tragically.
The eldest senior sister attempted to explain.
But Elder Xie did not give her any opportunity to explain.
Without even glancing once at the eldest senior sister, Elder Xie casually waved his hand dismissively.
The eldest senior sister’s words stopped short.
She felt a heavy pressure and majesty from this Elder Xie, who evidently did not want her to continue.
She was afraid to speak.
Her status was not enough for her to speak in front of a person like Elder Xie.
For the several thousand sisters of Hundred Spirits Sect, she knew that, at this time, the best choice was to shut up.
As for the youngster...
Sigh.
Eldest senior sister looked over at Ye Qingyu with a guilty look on her face.
And the others, at this time, also could tell that the truth was not important, everything was determined by status.
Since the young man was only a small trash fish, then the punishment of this youngster would not only solve the small confusion, but also highlight the majesty of Greater One Sect. This was clearly the best choice.
What kind of person should do what kind of thing and say what kind of words, this was the way to survive in this chaotic world.
This youngster was from a lowly background, yet he dared publicly insult a Greater One Sect disciple under the eyes of many. This was basically looking for trouble, he can’t blame other people.
As expected----
“You said he is a trash?” “
Elder Xie looked at Ye Qingyu, his eyes were like knives and his voice contained an unbearable majesty.
Xiao Yunlong smiled proudly on one side, and then cast a slightly provocative and threatening side glance at the girls of Hundred Spirits Sect.
The young girls’ expression of choking back their anger instead of speaking out was very enjoyable to him.
At this moment, all eyes were fixed on Ye Qingyu.
But the scene of the youngster shivering with fright did not appear.
“No, I didn’t say he is a trash,” Ye Qingyu righteously denied flatly.
“You... How dare you deny it?” Xiao Yunlong fumed, “You just said it, little trash, weren’t you very arrogant before? You’re afraid of admitting now.”
Elder Xie eyed Ye Qingyu with a sword-like glare.
He was beginning to lose his patience. He had wasted so much time on such a small matter and on a little trash fish that somehow got into the garden. This matter had exceeded his tolerance limit. Wouldn’t this matter make the other major sects and forces laugh at them?
But just as Elder Xie was about to make a decision without knowing who was right or wrong---
Ye Qingyu said some more earth-shattering words.
“I really didn’t mean he is a trash,” Ye Qingyu explained with an unprecedented sincerity and seriousness, like he was defending himself. “That was not what I meant, he just misunderstood... I meant to say that...”
Ye Qingyu took a little pause here, before he continued with every single word loud and clear, “I am not targeting him only, I also did not say that only he is a trash... forgive me for being honest, most of your Greater One Sect disciples are trash.”
