Chapter 396: Collecting Protection Fees from Three Star Regions One by One
Swish!
But as soon as Wang Ergou finished barking, a white shadow shot up into the sky from the bottom of the cliff. Feng Qingyao, wearing a white dress, flew up lightly and landed in front of Wang Ergou.
Feng Qingyao suddenly knelt on one knee and bowed: "Master, please, please don't let Thirteen go? The eldest brother and eldest sister, and so many junior brothers and sisters have gone there and never come back. Do you still want Thirteen to die? Why do so many families, so many people, and so many masters in the three major star regions have to let us, the disciples of the Thousand Immortal Sect, do this!"
"Ah..." Wang Ergou suddenly sighed: "Do you think I am willing? I have been traveling in this star field for thousands of years, and finally I have such a satisfactory disciple. Do you think I want him to go?
It's not that I want to force him to go, but... this is his own destiny, and the destiny of all the disciples of Qianxian Sect! Do you understand?
You should understand now why your grandfather took you to the Thousand Immortal Sect so many times, and why I refused to accept you as my disciple no matter what?
That's because I already knew that a big family like yours with a strong foundation would definitely not let important members of the family take such risks. After all, this is a job that you can't return from."
"Ah?" Feng Qingyao looked at Wang Ergou in shock: "Master, what you mean is that it's not because I don't have a good talent, or that I'm not qualified to go, but because I, Feng Qingyao, am the eldest daughter of the Feng family, so you didn't let me go?"
"Ah..." Wang Ergou suddenly sighed, and then nodded slowly: "Yes! Because what the Qianxian Sect does requires the strong support of the major families and major sects in the three major star regions in terms of spiritual stones, so, under your grandfather's strong pleading, I made an exception and didn't let you go. If I let you go, I would lose a huge source of income.
Because your grandfather clearly said that if I let you go, the Feng family will never give me a penny again, and will also unite with the forces that are friendly with the Feng family and never give me a penny again.
I deliberately hid the truth from you and said that you were not good enough in cultivation because I was afraid of this.
And it is also for this reason that I have never allowed you to use the ancient divine bracelet to accept the inheritance from your ancestors.
Because you have accepted the inheritance from your ancestors, it is difficult for you to not go. Those ancestors will continue to influence your will and make you sacrifice yourself for death.
He will make you feel that this is a very glorious and great thing. In fact, in my opinion, although it is true, it is nonsense.
The Thousand Immortals Sect has made tens of thousands of years of sacrifice for the human race in these three star fields. Thousands of immortals have been born. Each of them is extremely talented and has reached the level to ascend. However, they all resolutely chose not to ascend, and instead all entered the Abyss of Life and Death. What happened in the end?
Hehe...it's ironic that for the sake of the peace of the human race, they risked their lives and went to the Abyss of Life and Death to block the door to the demon world, but in the end, they were wiped out and not even a spark of fire was left. Isn't this ridiculous? It's ridiculous and ironic."
Wang Ergou suddenly said indignantly when he got to this point: "Fortunately, I am not a disciple of the Thousand Immortal Sect, nor am I the Sect Master. Otherwise, I will definitely tell my disciples and grandchildren that we don't care about it anymore. There are tens of billions of people in the three major star regions combined. Why should the Thousand Immortal Sect be in charge of this matter? Whoever wants to care can care!"
Wang Ergou said a few words angrily, paused for a while, and then suddenly smiled bitterly: "Haha... Unfortunately, I am not from the Qianxian Sect, I am not qualified to say such things. If I do so, it would be an insult to the martyrs of the Qianxian Sect who I admire so much and who sacrificed their lives for them.
Besides, I promised your master's wife before she died that I should not stand idly by and it was she who asked me to take over as the leader of the Thousand Immortals Sect for a while until a new generation of leader was found.
I thought that Ye Fei was finally qualified to take over the position of the head sect leader, and I could finally leave the Qianxian Sect with peace of mind.
I always thought that as long as I trained him, I would have an explanation to the Qianxian Sect and to your master's wife. But in the end, haha... I never thought that the ancient divine bracelet would be broken ten years ago."
"Master, what does the broken ancient divine bracelet mean?" Feng Qingyao asked.
"What does it represent?" Wang Ergou smiled bitterly: "The mission of the Thousand Immortal Sect has finally come to an end. Ye Fei will be the last person to enter the Abyss of Life and Death and sacrifice his life! Without the ancient divine bracelet, the sword inheritance of the ancestors of the Thousand Immortal Sect will no longer exist.
Those who have not received the inheritance from their ancestors are not considered true disciples of the Thousand Immortal Sect. Later, Eighteen and the others can be dismissed. I had planned to wait for Thirteen to come back and let them use the ancient divine bracelets to receive the inheritance from their ancestors. Now, the ancient divine bracelets are gone, and the inheritance is not good. The Thousand Immortal Sect should end here. "
"So, Thirteen has to go!" Feng Qingyao asked.
"Yes!" Wang Ergou nodded: "Do you know why I passed the ancient divine bracelet to him without hesitation?"
"Why?" Feng Qingyao was at a loss.
"To be honest, I did have some selfish motives at the time." Wang Ergou said slowly, with a complicated look on his face: "Thirteen is a very talented kid. With his outstanding talent, he will surely achieve something earth-shattering in the future. So, when faced with the choice between life and death, how could I bear to watch such a promising young man die?
The leader of the Thousand Immortals Sect was burdened with special responsibilities that a leader should bear. According to the sect's rules, he did not need to step into the dangerous abyss of life and death.
However, who could have expected that the ancient divine bracelet would suddenly break. As a result, the head of the sect had no choice but to venture into the abyss of life and death.
Alas... maybe this is all God's will. How can human power fight against it? I am helpless too."
As soon as she finished speaking, Feng Qingyao suddenly raised her head with a firm look in her eyes. Suddenly, she was determined and knelt on her knees without hesitation, saying loudly: "Master, even if someone really wants to enter the Abyss of Life and Death, we should follow the principle of seniority! As a senior sister, I haven't gone yet, so how can I let Junior Brother Thirteen take the risk first! If you must send someone, it should be me, the senior sister, who should go first! Master, please send me into the Abyss of Life and Death!"
Hearing Feng Qingyao's words, Wang Ergou's face suddenly changed, and he said sternly: "You stupid girl, stand up right now! This matter is very serious, how can I allow you to treat it like a joke!"
"Master! Thirteen's life is so miserable and pitiful. When he was only a few months old, his parents took him to flee from place to place to avoid the ruthless pursuit of his enemies. During the years in the Ye family, he was always treated as a shame of the Ye family. He has been a waste in the Ye family for more than ten years. From childhood to adulthood, he has never had a good life!"
As Feng Qingyao spoke, tears welled up in her eyes and her voice trembled slightly with excitement.
She continued, "In the past ten years, Thirteen has gone through untold hardships and practiced day and night to finally improve his sword skills to such a high level. He is about to achieve something, live a good life, and no longer be looked down upon. Do you really have the heart to send him to the abyss of life and death? Besides, his family has been tragically exterminated, and the blood feud has not yet been avenged. If you let him die now, how can you get back the blood debt?
Master, please, please let me go first! At least, if I go, I can delay the time and let Thirteen live a few more good days outside. "
When Feng Qingyao finished saying this, tears were already pouring down her face.
However, in the face of Feng Qingyao's tearful pleas, Wang Ergou remained stern and unmoved. He only replied coldly: "The ancient divine bracelet has been broken, and you have not yet inherited the ancestral heritage. Even if I want to send you to the Abyss of Life and Death, it is impossible for you to go in your current condition. So, don't dream about this matter anymore, and get up quickly!"
After Wang Ergou finished speaking, he put his hands behind his back and slowly turned around, leaving Feng Qingyao with a broad and determined back.
He raised his head slightly, looking far away in the direction of the distant Wuyuan Star Region, and said slowly: "Girl, ever since you came back from the Demon Region, I have already seen your love for Thirteen. Seeing that the man you love is about to go to the abyss of life and death, I can naturally deeply understand the pain and heartache in your heart at this moment.
However, don't worry, as the last leader of the Thousand Immortals Sect, you will be accompanied by your master all the way on this journey to the Abyss of Life and Death and will never leave him.
Not only that, before sending him to the Abyss of Life and Death, your master will lead him to destroy the Xuanyun Sect and help them avenge the blood feud with the Lingxu Ye Clan!"
Hearing this, Feng Qingyao couldn't help but exclaimed: "Ah? Master, the Xuanyun Sect is now the strongest sect in the Lingxu Star Region. How can we, the master and the disciples, avenge Thirteen's blood feud?"
Facing Feng Qingyao's doubts and worries, Wang Ergou suddenly turned around and stared at her. At this moment, a blazing flame seemed to burn in the depths of his eyes, revealing an unprecedented determination:
"Hmph... Before I go to help Thirteen with his revenge, I plan to take Thirteen with me to visit every top family and major sect in these three star regions, and then collect the last protection fee from them for the Thousand Immortal Sect. At the same time, I will also ask them to lend a top expert to Thirteen to help him. With these helpers, there is no need to worry about not being able to destroy a mere Xuanyun Sect!"
"What if they are unwilling to lend out the strong ones?" Feng Qingyao asked.
“Hehe…” A sinister smile flashed across Wang Ergou’s lips. “Then I will take Thirteen with me to let them all have a taste of what the Qiankun Sect tried hundreds of years ago. I believe that with Thirteen cooperating with me, I will definitely make them feel like they are in heaven! In terms of being mean, Thirteen is much meaner than me. By then, they will definitely regret not paying us protection money earlier.”
Feng Qingyao: "..."
Swish!
At this moment, a white figure flew from a distance and landed next to Wang Ergou and Feng Qingyao.
He first helped Feng Qingyao, who was still kneeling on the ground, up, and then reached out to help Feng Qingyao wipe the tears from her face. Then he turned around and grinned at Wang Ergou: "Master, let's go now!"
Wang Ergou: "Hmm? Where are you going?"
Ye Fei: "Go to the three major star regions and collect protection fees one by one!"
Wang Ergou frowned: "Did you hear everything just now?"
Ye Fei nodded: "Yeah!"
Wang Ergou: "You were fucking eavesdropping from a distance?"
Ye Fei nodded.
Wang Ergou: "Do you know what it would mean if you knew about this?"
Ye Fei nodded again: "I know, it will bring bad karma. Just like Master said, maybe all this is God's will. How can human power compete with it?"
Wang Ergou: "Aren't you afraid of death?"
Ye Fei: "You may not necessarily die if you go there, so why be afraid! Besides, since it is God's will, what else can I say? You said it yourself just now, God's will, it cannot be resisted by human power! In this case, this kind of thing is like being raped. Since there is no way to resist, just close your eyes and enjoy the process!"
