Chui Changlao regained his composure and smiled as he shook his head: "I was just praising your junior apprentice a few words, whats the big deal?"

  He looked at Yan Zhao Ge: "On the other hand, you, although you have a noble birth, but you should know that after all, you are still a junior apprentice."

  "Just based on those few words you spoke earlier, I can convict you of the crime of disrespecting your elders and being reckless and immoral. Even Yan Lao would have nothing to say in your defense."

  "Young man, regardless of whether this inner crystal furnace is real or fake, and whether you discovered it or not, even if you have some credit, you should still be cautious in your words and actions, and be more humble!"

  Cui Zhanglao still had a gentle smile, but his aura was stern and oppressive, causing the young disciples on the scene to dare not breathe loudly, looking at Cui Zhanglao with trepidation.

  The development of things has exceeded their imagination.

  The smile on Yan Zhaos face was even more peaceful than Cui Zhanglao: "Are you a senior? Our school indeed attaches importance to the order of age, and I have always respected the elderly."

  "Its just that I dont need your dad, and I think it would be easy to find a few people who dont treat you like an elder."

  "What you did today may not be wrong, but was your butt always clean in the past? You know this best yourself."

  "I respect the elderly and honor the virtuous, on the condition that they are not being disrespected due to their age."

  Cui Zhanglao stared at Yan Zhao Ge: "You..."

  Yanzhao Song slanted her eyes at him: "What about me?"

  Choi couldnt say a word, and it wasnt until this moment that he realized the young man in front of him was even more arrogant and cunning than he had imagined!

  At this moment, he had a mind to turn his face and give Yan Zhao Ge a good look, but found that he didnt have much leverage over Yan Zhao Ge.

  He wanted to take action, but Ah Hu on the side opened his big mouth and grinned at him, making him suddenly stiffen on the spot, unable to move forward or backward.

  Yanzhao Song said calmly: "You think youre using a foolish little boy as a gun, but in fact, you are also just a gun in someone elses hand."

  "If you succeed in cheating me this time, the people behind you who bought your loyalty with a thousand pieces of gold will go all out to protect you. But now, if the people behind me want to take action against you, do you think the people behind you will still be able to protect you? How much effort will they put into protecting you?"

  After that, Yan Zhao Ge turned around and ignored the old man with the surname Cui. He glanced at Ye Jing, Si Kong Qing and others, then took the lead in stepping out of the side hall: "Everyone, get your treasured swords ready, were leaving, our target is Zhen Long Quan."

  Ah Hu carried the Nei Jing furnace close to his body and transmitted a smile: "Young Master, is this killing a chicken to scare the monkeys?"

  "You dont understand." Yan Zhao Ge shook his head, turned around and looked at Ye Jing who was following behind him, no longer angry but with a thoughtful expression.

  Yanzhao Ges mood is calm and peaceful. Although he had to take the blame for his original bodys owner, the current Yanzhao Ge himself has no grudges against Ye Jing, so he wont take the initiative to target or suppress him.

  Everyone goes their separate ways, and its best if we just get along peacefully.

  "But if you stand on the opposite side of me, I wont back down either. Lets have a good arm-wrestling match and see who can overpower whom - this time-traveling guest or you, the native-born true son of heaven?"

  "Life and death are nothing to me, if you dont like it then fight me, I dont care who you are."

  Ye Jing gazed at the back of Yan Zhao Ge, his eyes complex.

  Si Kongqing looked at Yan Zhao Ge, her eyes still clear and cold, but with a hint of curiosity.

  Others looked at Yan Zhao Ge with admiration.

  If saying that the matter of the inner crystal furnace only allowed them to experience the power of the Yan Zhao song, then afterwards when they faced off against Chui Zhang Lao, it was called truly understanding what it means to be arrogant and overbearing.

  Facing Ye Jing and these people who were obviously inferior to himself, Yan Zhao Ge was very calm despite being rich and arrogant.

  Yanzhao Song was on the opposite side of Cui Zhanglao, a high-ranking official who usually made his younger disciples dare not breathe loudly, and he was tightly pressed step by step, and could not be tolerated.

  Compared with many precious troops, it was only after what happened later that they truly felt that Yan Zhao Ge and them were really not on the same level.

  Yanzhao Ge didnt look at them anymore and continued walking forward. Ah Hu followed beside him, Yanzhao Ge gave him a sideways glance.

  Ah Hu put on a big face, hehe silly smile, using internal energy to bind the voice and quietly transmit it to Yan Zhao Ge: "Young master, this time I lost my job, I really didnt expect that Ye Jing would actually advance another realm in such a short period of time and successfully open up his dantian qihai."

  Yanzhao rolled her eyes and was not surprised at all about this matter.

  Destined hero, protagonist halo, just like this one move shocks the world, dazzling a group of dog eyes, and punching a group of dog faces.

  This kind of thing, Yan Zhao Ge also likes it very much. The premise is that he belongs to the side that slaps the face, not the one being slapped in the face.

  "Tell someone to go and investigate, report back as soon as possible." Yan Zhao Song also transmitted the sound: "The old man with the surname Cui stirred up my hatred for Ye Jing, it wont be that simple."

  "Even if I really did kill Ye Jing with my own hands and got caught red-handed, convicted of fratricide within the same school, as long as my dad is still around, Ill have a chance to turn things around."

  "Besides, if I really wanted to take action, would it be so easy to get caught with evidence?"

  "This wont have much effect on the competition between Second Master and Old Master." Yan Zhao Ge said, "There should be other reasons. Go investigate Ye Jings interpersonal relationships, investigate them carefully, especially the relationships within our own sect."

  "Ah Hus expression turned serious and solemn, no longer playful: Yes, young master."

  Yanzhao Ge nodded and continued on his way, walking for a while before suddenly stopping: "Hmm, almost forgot the main thing, Ah Hu, go back to that side hall for a moment."

  "Is that still not enough for you, young master? Leave it to me, Ill go back and give that old scoundrel a good thrashing."

  Yanzhao Song waved his hand: "No, its this time the sect mission, investigating the Zhenlongquan ritual, I forgot to receive it, you go back and get it."

  Ah Hu: *no words*

  On this day, the Chief Elder of the Executive Yuan, Cui Xin, was dismissed from his position and put under investigation by the Ministry of Punishments for taking bribes and bullying younger colleagues.

  …………

  In a dark quiet room somewhere in the mountains of Guangzhou.

  "Its said that its true, and the Inner Crystal Furnace actually has such a wonderful use!"

  "Hurry back with news."

  "Nowadays, the inner crystal furnace is still imperfect and can only refine low-grade treasure swords. Although its value is also very great, it is ultimately limited. Shouldnt we wait until there are further results before taking action, so as not to expose ourselves prematurely and alarm the Guangcheng Mountain side?"

  "We remain hidden and motionless, but the message is of great importance and requires an immediate response. What to do next will depend on the instructions from that side."

  "Good."

  …………

  Another place.

  "The development of the inner crystal furnace has now been taken over by the higher-ups in the sect, but the foundation was laid by Yan Zhao Ge."

  "With a foundation in place, you can also try to deduce what comes next."

  "This time he went to Zhenlongquan, although there were guards following him, but after all, he was alone and weak, it was the perfect opportunity to send someone to intercept and kill him."

  "Get in touch with the remnants of the Five Spirits Flag. The Five Spirits Flag was destroyed by Yan Zhao Ges father back then, and now its time for the son to pay off the debt. Theyll take action without arousing suspicion, just need to remind them not to really kill Yan Zhao Ge, at least not until weve gotten the information about the inner crystal furnace out of him, and then hand him over to them to deal with."

  "As for the news about the inner crystal furnace, dont let the people of Wuling Flag know about it for now, just let them kidnap people."

  …………

  One of the Five Domains of Heaven, on the easternmost part of the Eastern Tang Empires territory, a massive rift valley runs through, which is the destination of Yan Zhao Ge and others journey, Zhen Long Quan.

  "Brother Ye, youre from Dongtang Country, arent you?" A young disciple asked as they passed through the capital of Dongtang Country.

  Ye Jing nodded and sighed: "Yes."

  The strongest sacred places in the world stand together, each with its own mountain gate ancestral hall and vast land under direct jurisdiction, and then radiate influence to the surrounding vast territory.

  Similar to Guang Chengshan, it directly governs the central Tianzhongzhou of the five states in the Tianyu domain, and then affects the entire Tianyu domain.

  Outside of Tianzhongzhou, the other four continents have various sects, imperial dynasties or powerful families that are influenced by Guang Cheng Shan and develop independently, with Guang Cheng Shan as their revered leader.

  Dongtang Kingdom is one of the three major forces in Tian Dongzhou and also the easternmost border of Guangsheng Mountains influence.

  Similar to the Eastern Tang Dynasty, within its territory, there will also be more secondary and tertiary levels of sects or family forces.

  Looking at the capital of Eastern Tang Empire, Ye Jings thoughts were wandering. His family, the Ye Family, was just a small clan in a small city within the borders of Eastern Tang Empire. Under his efforts, the Ye Family had become the most powerful force in that small city, but in the entire Eastern Tang Empire, they were still insignificant.

  He left the small town and came to the capital of Dongtang Kingdom, which was truly an eye-opening experience.

  As for leaving East Tang State and joining the gate of Guangsheng Mountain, it is even more like a frog at the bottom of a well jumping out of the well mouth, seeing the true sky and earth.

  Many powerful individuals in Eastern Tang, currently he still needs to look up to them, however this time returning to Eastern Tang can also be considered as a triumphant return...

  "After entering the city, I entered the imperial palace to see the master of Eastern Tang Kingdom. At the same time, I also wanted to meet with the elder who was in charge of our sects affairs in Eastern Tang Kingdom and get a general understanding of the situation at Zhen Long Yuan."

  Yanzhao Ge, who was walking in the front, stopped his footsteps and looked at the capital of Dongtang Kingdom in front of him. He said to everyone: "You can take a short rest and move around freely, but you must gather again after two hours. We will set off for Zhenlongquan then."

  "Yes, Elder Yan."

  Ye Jings face was expressionless.
