Chapter 830: Who Do You Think You Are?
Outside Qingyang City, everyone was staring at Ye Chen in a daze at that moment. Ye Chen’s words from earlier were still echoing in their heads.
“I’ll kill you if you dare to say another word.
“Do you believe that?”
One had to know that Zhao Kuang was the son of Qingyang City’s City Governor, yet he was slapped in public, and the other party even threatened to kill him?
“Sage, you…”
Even Fu Haishan could not take it anymore. The City Governor’s Mansion was not scary, but the King Kong Sect was behind it.
Ye Chen did not say anything. His cold gaze was fixed on Zhao Kuang. There was coldness in his eyes.
Even though he had just arrived at Kunlun Ruins and did not want to make a big fuss, it did not mean that he was afraid of trouble.
Forget Zhao Kuang, a son of the City Governor’s Mansion, he was not even afraid of the King Kong Sect behind the City Governor’s Mansion.
Zhao Kuang, on the other hand, was stunned the whole time. He covered his painful face subconsciously, and his face turned pale. He wanted to say something vicious a few times, but he swallowed his words when he met Ye Chen’s gaze.
He could sense that Ye Chen might really kill him if he said anything more.
Without his order, the guards behind him did not dare to attack Ye Chen.
“Brat, you win!”
Under everyone’s stunned gazes, Zhao Kuang glared at Ye Chen after he returned to his senses. He then ran into the city with his men.
At that moment, a carriage rushed out of Qingyang City. A middle-aged man quickly walked up to them, “Father, Qingqing, are you alright?”
The other party was a Martial Dao master.
“I’m fine!”
Fu Haishan finally came back to his senses from the previous incident and introduced Ye Chen, “Master, this is my son, Fu Xiaochen. Xiaochen, this is Sage Ye. He went out to train and I invited him to be a guest at the Fu residence. Please take good care of him.”
“Sage?”
Fu Xiaochen lifted his head and looked at Ye Chen and his daughter. He then nodded quietly.
Under his rough appearance, there was a hint of disapproval. He turned to look at Fu Qingqing, “I met Young Master Zhao on the way here, did something happen?”
“We’ll talk when we get back!”
Fu Haishan was unwilling to talk about it. He said casually before he called Ye Chen and his daughter into the carriage and entered Qingyang City. He saw a lot of traffic along the way. It was extremely lively.
Ye Chen had a deeper understanding of the Kunlun Ruins now. To put it bluntly, the Kunlun Ruins was similar to the cultivation world. Not everyone practiced martial arts and cultivated. There were also many mortals. However, the businesses that these mortals ran were usually related to cultivation.
After half an hour, the carriage finally arrived at a huge gate that covered an area of about a hundred acres. The gate was ancient, it had many courtyards and gardens. If an ordinary person entered by mistake, they would easily get lost.
When they arrived outside the Fu residence, many people came out to welcome them. Most of them were the upper echelons and servants of the Fu family.
Ye Chen looked over and realized that the highest cultivation base among them was only at the Master Stage. However, a servant who did odd jobs had cultivated to Internal Energy.
He could not help but shake his head, ‘At the end of the day, the Kunlun Ruins is not something that the ordinary world can compare with. Take the handymen who do odd jobs for example. If they were in the secular world, although they would not be considered powerhouses, they would be able to become bodyguards or participate in sports competitions. They would be able to make a name for themselves.’
Soon, a sumptuous banquet was served. Ye Chen was seated at the head of the table.
Fu Xiaochen picked up a bronze wine bottle first and stood up. He said to Ye Chen, “Sage, it’s my honor to have you come to my Fu residence. Let me toast you!”
Ye Chen nodded slightly to show his respect. Just when he was about to pick up the bronze wine bottle before him, Fu Xiaochen asked again, “There’s something I don’t understand. May I know which sect you’re from? Where are you from? What’s your cultivation base?”
Ye Chen secretly frowned.
At this moment, even Fu Haishan noticed that something was off, and he immediately berated, “Xiaochen, don’t be rude to the sage!”
“Father!”
Fu Xiaochen said stubbornly, “I heard that before you entered the city, you offended the son of the City Governor, Zhao Yong. Since you dare to look down on Zhao Yong, you must have a powerful background. That’s why I’m curious!”
Ye Chen smirked, “Are you suspecting my identity?”
It was obvious that the other party treated him as a fake powerhouse, someone who would cheat others of their food and drink. That was why they kept arguing.
“No!”
Fu Xiaochen looked straight at Ye Chen. He did not hide the disdain on his face at all, “I hope that you’ll be generous with your teachings. I hope that you can give us a sense of security!”
“Who do you think you are?”
Ye Chen chuckled softly and said in a non-committal manner, “Do I need to explain my identity to you?”
It was not that he felt guilty, but Fu Xiaochen’s tone really displeased him. Moreover, with his status, how could he possibly explain it to an ant?
“If that’s the case, I hope that you can leave after you finish this wine so that you won’t bring trouble to the Fu family!” Fu Xiaochen could no longer maintain his composure. He snorted and sat down.
Fu Haishan frowned, “Xiaochen…”
“Father!”
Fu Xiaochen interrupted him, “I don’t know where you got to know this person, nor do I know why you treat him as a sage. However, I know very well what kind of existence a sage is. Why would he take a fancy to a mere Fu family?
“Father, you mustn’t be deceived by someone with ulterior motives. Furthermore, this person has offended the City Governor’s Mansion. We cannot let him stay in the Fu residence!”
Following his words, the rest of the people at the banquet nodded their heads and began to discuss in agreement.
“Young Master Fu is right. This person is so young. No matter how you look at him, he doesn’t look like a cultivator with great divinities!”
“He doesn’t even dare to reveal his identity and cultivation base. He’s clearly a liar!”
“…”
All of a sudden, the entire banquet was filled with all sorts of odd voices. They were obviously doubting Ye Chen.
Seeing this, Fu Qingqing could not help but tug at the corner of Fu Haishan’s shirt. Fu Haishan sighed and chose to remain silent.
At this point, he was starting to doubt himself.
After all, from the beginning to the end, he only saw Ye Chen using the Lightning Method. It was only then that he remembered that one could also use the Lightning Method through the Talisman Method in the Kunlun Ruins.
At that moment, a loud noise came from outside, and a member of the Fu family rushed in.
“Oh no, City Governor Zhao is here with his men!”
“What?”
The people in the room instantly stood up. Fu Xiaochen smiled coldly, “Father, look, trouble is here!”
Fu Haishan took a deep breath in and said calmly, “It’s fine. I’ll go out and negotiate with City Governor Zhao personally!”
“No need!”
Soon after, a cold voice came from outside, “How dare I trouble you to welcome me personally?!”
