Chapter 287 Reward and Punishment
Ye Feng was extremely fast, and because he killed too many monsters, he had an invisible but indelible evil spirit on his body. Although many monsters along the way, he could keenly feel Ye Feng's danger and dare not approach him at all. As for the wind and waves on the sea, it might be dangerous for ordinary monks, but it was insignificant for Ye Feng, who was already in the late stage of the Jindan cultivation. [bsp; In particular, as a water-based monk, Ye Feng got closer to the ocean, the faster his escape technique was. By noon, Ye Feng had already seen Qifeng Island from afar.
The clouds and mist are surrounded by Qifeng Island, the golden energy soars into the sky, and the rainbow lights are dazzling, and there is more atmosphere in the world than a year ago.
"Who? Stop"
Ye Feng was about to enter Qifeng Island, which seemed to be unsuspecting and could enter and exit freely, but the surrounding clouds rolled in a flash. In a blink of an eye, two young monks with sharp eyes and flying swords appeared.
A year ago, although there were many monks in the Ye family, but there were only a limited monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage. Ye Feng knew almost every one of them. It was the first time that the two young monks who blocked the road.
Obviously, the two young monks joined the Ye family for no more than a year before Ye Feng would not recognize him, and there must be so many such monks in the Ye family.
"I am an important figure in your Ye family. Don't block the way, otherwise I will delay the big matter and ask you about it." Ye Feng was slightly stunned and then looked majestic.
Although he was a young man, his appearance was also a young man, and his cultivation level seemed unfathomable to the eyes of these two roadblock monks. At this time, he pretended to be an old monster who had been practicing for many years. Although these two roadblock monks were a little suspicious, they still chose to believe it.
After all, the true age of monks cannot be seen from their appearance. Many monks seem very young and even look like children, but in fact they have been practicing for hundreds of years.
Fortunately, the age of the monk is not easy to see, and his cultivation level can be roughly judged. When he encounters a monk who he really cannot see through, he will definitely not make any mistakes in calling seniors.
"It turns out that senior is our Ye family monk, who is indifferent to respect." The two young monks confirmed that Ye Feng was a senior and immediately showed a look of awe.
The reason why Ye Feng pretended to be "old man" was naturally not a simple whim, but to test the two young Ye family monks. Now that he saw the attitude of these two monks changed immediately, he had no intention of blocking the way, Ye Feng couldn't help but feel very disappointed, but he did not reveal it on the surface and did not blame anything.
Ye Feng knew that the reason why these two monks disappointed him was not that these two monks were not good, but that his requirements were a bit high. After all, these two young monks had just joined the Ye family and had been in the foundation-building stage. They must have been casual cultivators before. When they met high-level monks, they would inevitably be nervous and timid.
"It seems that our Ye family's power has developed a little faster. Although it is too arrogant, it is actually not solid. I have to put some effort into many things myself." Ye Feng thought with emotion.
As he finished speaking, Ye Feng had to continue moving forward, but the two young monks of the Ye family stood in front of Ye Feng again, saying respectfully but firmly: "Senior, since he is an important figure in our Ye family, he should also know that our Ye family has regulations that all monks entering and leaving the Ye family must have a special identity jade plaque made by our Ye family, even the head of the family is no exception. If the senior does not have the identity jade plaque of our Ye family, we may not be able to let the senior in."
Ye Feng was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then he was overjoyed. Only then did he realize that although these two monks had just joined the Ye family less than a year ago and were casual cultivators, they were still quite reliable and loyal. However, in terms of being big, it was obviously not that the Ye family was empty-handed, and his worries were completely redundant.
When the two monks saw Ye Feng not speaking, they thought Ye Feng was unhappy and immediately added: "Although seniors cannot enter the island, they can send a message to the island and invite the elders or heads of our Ye family to testify. Since seniors are important figures in our Ye family, this must be very simple for seniors."
Ye Feng smiled slightly and said, "How do you two know that I don't have the Jade Mark of the Ye family's identity on me?"
The two monks said respectfully: "Senior saw so many monks flying around in the sky? The reason why they were not blocked by us is because they had the identity jade plaque of our Ye family monks, and not the Ye family monks had the pass token issued by our Ye family. The reason why we blocked our senior's way was not that we could see that there was no identity token on our senior, but because we were reminded by the prohibition.
"It turns out that the prohibition on Qifeng Island can sense the identity jade plaque of the Ye family monks and the pass tokens of other monks. No wonder other monks can be unobstructed, but you just stopped me." Ye Feng said suddenly.
Seeing that Ye Feng could understand, the two monks of the Ye family breathed a sigh of relief, but Ye Feng could not help but feel a little worried and alert.
"I don't have the identity token you mentioned. Do you think this is OK?"
Ye Feng took out an old-fashioned token of the elders of the Ye family and said. Although Ye Feng was not an elder, he had never disclosed his identity to the outside world, so he couldn't help but carry the gold seal of the head of the family and prepare an elder token. After all, sometimes the gold seal of the head of the family cannot be used casually, just like now.
Who knew that the two monks were slightly shocked at first, but then shook their heads and refused to agree to let go. Obviously, these two monks did not know the old-fashioned elders of the Ye family.
Ye Feng was quite helpless and was about to send a message to the monks such as Xu Han, but four rainbow lights flew from afar. It was Xu Han, Song Jingang, and Zhou Qing, the three Golden Pill Elders, and the heads of the thirty-six Heavenly Gang. Ye Xuan, whose status is not inferior to any elder.
These four monks are all core monks, or leaders of the Ye family. Their status in the Ye family is second only to the nominal head of the family and Ye Feng's father Ye Tianzheng.
The cultivation of these four monks is also the second only to Ye Feng in the Ye family. They usually manage different affairs of the Ye family. Because they have no airs and have clear rewards and punishments, they are highly respected and loved by the Ye monks.
Especially Ye Xuan, who is not old, is already like a flower and jade, has a high level of cultivation and a high status. She is simply the dream lover of all the young monks of the Ye family.
Every time these four monks enter Qifeng Island, they will smile and nod at the monks guarding guards, which makes the Ye family monks on duty feel very present.
At this time, seeing Xu Han, Ye Xuan and other monks coming, the two monks blocking the road immediately saluted respectfully, and were about to tell them about Ye Feng, but unexpectedly, Xu Han, Ye Xuan and other monks didn't even look at them this time. All their attention was attracted by Ye Feng, and they showed a look of respect and joy.
"Home... Elder, you are here, it's great. We have been waiting for you for a long time." Xu Han originally wanted to call Ye Feng the head of the family, but there were many other monks around him, and it was obvious that Ye Feng's identity could not be revealed, so he immediately became wise and changed his words to call Ye Feng the elder.
"Elder Jia? Why have I never heard of it? What kind of elder is this? How could Elder Xu Han and others be so respected?"
The two monks blocking the road were shocked and panicked. They suddenly realized that they had really met an important figure in the Ye family this time, and if they stopped this important figure, they would likely be severely punished.
After all, the status of the monks such as Xu Han, Ye Xuan and others in the Ye family are second only to the head of the family. They have never appeared in this year. It seems that the legendary dragon princess, the monks who can make them so respectful must not be ordinary people.
These two monks had seen Ye Tianzheng and Xu Han and other monks together, but they had never seen Xu Han and other monks so excited. Obviously, the status of this important person is even better than that of the head of the family.
"The highest status of our Ye family is the head of the family. How could there be a cultivator who is more important than the head of the family? Could it be that this cultivation is the Supreme Elder? It is impossible. We have seen the Supreme Elder of our Ye family. Although we have high seniority, our cultivation is average, especially a little old, and we look different from this important person, so we cannot be taken so seriously."
The two monks who blocked the road became more and more confused and became more and more frightened as they thought about it. They finally stopped blocking Ye Feng's way, and even chose to take the initiative to apologize.
"Elders, and this senior, we are blind and do not know that our senior has a noble status. Please punish us and our seniors. As long as we are not expelled from the family, we are willing to do whatever we do." The two young monks lowered their heads and said in unison.
"What's going on? It seems that something is happening there. Let's go and see." Seeing this, all the monks passing by surrounded him curiously.
"Home... Elder, what's going on?" Xu Han and others said in confusion.
"Oh, that's right. I was about to rush back to my family, but I was stopped by these two monks and said that I don't have the latest identity jade sign and pass from the Ye family, so I didn't let me in. I was planning to send a message to you for help." Ye Feng smiled slightly.
"So that's it. You two are really bold. The family lets you guard here to prevent spies and unknown monks from entering. How can you stop the family... Elders?"
Zhou Qing and other monks all looked cold when they heard this. Although they were very good to their subordinates, their status in their hearts was still far from comparable to Ye Feng. In their opinion, Ye Feng was sacred and unoffensive, but now they were stopped by these two monks. These two monks should obviously be severely punished.
As for the right and wrong of these two monks, it was obviously insignificant to them at this time.
Both monks were shocked and uneasy. They didn't know how Xu Han and other monks would punish them. They were originally wandering and helpless in the East China Sea. Although they lived by monks, they were not even as good as mortals. Because they entered the path of cultivation, they could no longer live a life of mortals.
Only after joining the Ye family did they truly realize the benefits of cultivating the truth and could truly practice with peace of mind. Therefore, what they feared the most was to be expelled from the family.
However, the words of Xu Han and other monks did not answer positively, which made them very uneasy. At this moment, they felt that life was worse than death.
"Xu Han, what are you doing? They are not wrong. They should be like this as guards. In my opinion, they are not only wrong, but they are also worthy of praise. They should be well trained." Ye Feng couldn't help but frown slightly when he saw the two monks being frightened and sweating profusely.
"Yes, head of the family, we know we were wrong. You both got up quickly. You did a good job this time. We were joking with you just now. You were so scared that you were so brave. Our Ye family is not welcome to such monks, so you should be more brave in the future. Also, I remember you. If you want to perform well in the future, the family will not treat you badly." Xu Han and other monks immediately woke up and found that they had been affected by their feelings and had acted unfairly, so they quickly changed their attitude apologetically.
"Thank you, elder, thank you, senior." The two guard monks were slightly stunned, with disbelief on their faces. After a while, they were sure that they had heard nothing wrong. Not only did they breathe a sigh of relief, but they were also overjoyed. They were full of gratitude and respect for monks such as Xu Han, especially Ye Feng.
Although they were almost punished before, as an ordinary Ye family member, they were only grateful and not resentful, because this was an unfair world where the strong prey on the weak. It was already very rare for the elders of the Ye family to apologize for them and promise to promote them, and it could even be said to be a miracle.
"Okay, the Ye family is indeed the Ye family. No wonder many fellow monks regard it as the first major cultivation family in the East China Sea in the future, and it is the hope for the rise of the East China Sea cultivation world."
The onlookers cheered at this time, not only admired the two guard monks who were loyal to their duties, but also admired the elders of the Ye family who knew their mistakes and corrected their fairness and justice, and did not put on airs at all. Unlike many powerful people they had seen, they never admitted it even if they did something wrong, let alone apologize, make up for it, and even covered up the mistakes with more mistakes.
In addition, the style of the elders of the Ye family who were unconventional to subdue talents also made the monks admire and even yearn for it. The monks onlookers knew that although the two guards of the Ye family did not receive any material rewards this time, the Ye family's attention and even cultivation had surpassed any material rewards.
"I'll make you laugh. I won't accompany you if I have important things to do. Please be gentle." Ye Feng smiled slightly. Seeing that Ye Feng's cultivators with such a high status and unfathomable cultivation were all flattered to them, they immediately bowed and quickly dispersed.
Of course, although the monks dispersed, their discussion on this matter had just begun, especially about Ye Feng's identity, they were all curious.
Some monks said, "You said, who will this senior be? Is it really an old monster who has been practicing for many years but maintains the appearance of a young man?"
Another monk said: "I have known for a long time that the Ye family is not simple. The Ye family's strength is definitely not as simple as it seems. Otherwise, it would be impossible to get the support of sects such as the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea and the Penglai Immortal Sect. This senior must be the master who has been hiding in the Ye family. It is very likely that the Yuanying monster is the old monster."
A monk immediately expressed his agreement: "Yes, this senior must be a master of Nascent Soul, otherwise it would be impossible for him to completely change the attitude of the elders of the Ye family such as Xu Han in one sentence. Have you noticed that this senior actually called Xu Han's name directly, but Xu Han was not angry at all."
More monks echoed: "What I said is that I have long doubted the relationship between the Ye family and the East China Sea Dragon Palace. Now it seems that my suspicion is indeed correct. The Ye family itself is extremely strong, so it will be supported by the East China Sea Dragon Palace. Otherwise, why is the East China Sea Dragon Palace not supporting other cultivation families?"
Some monks became suspicious: "Is the Ye family not the first family in the East China Sea in the future, or it is now the family with the strongest and most masters in the East China Sea? It's just that the Ye family has always hidden their strength for some reason, so we don't know?"
Some monks with a long-term vision immediately decided: "It is indeed very possible to contact the many miraculous things that have happened since the rise of the Ye family. No, I will go back and report to the sect immediately, let the sect grow and strengthen cooperation with the Ye family."
Of course, some monks have rich imagination after all, so they immediately made a bold guess and said, "You guys, is this senior not an old monster, nor is it Elder Jia?"
A monk immediately became irritated and immediately asked curiously: "It's not an old monster, nor Elder Jia, so who would he be?
The cultivator with rich imagination immediately said proudly: "Stupid, think about it, among the monks of the Ye family we already know, except for the head of the Ye family, who can make the elders of the Ye family respect so much, even better than the head of the family?"
The curious monk thought for a while and said, "The Supreme Elder? The monks of the three major sects? Or the legendary elder of the Ye family guest minister, the Dragon Princess?"
The monk of imagination said with a smile: "Yes, you guys still have a little brain. What I mean is the Dragon Clan princess. I suspect that this senior is the Dragon Clan princess, so that everything seems more reasonable."
The monks pondered slightly, their eyes lit up immediately, and they agreed: "The Dragon Princess can make Xu Han and others do this, but everyone knows that the Dragon Princess is a woman, unless he disguises himself as a man? Well? Yes, the Dragon Princess has a high level of cultivation. It must be a matter for her to disguise her with our cultivation and eyesight. It is normal to be concealed."
The monks continued to think about this idea, and the more they thought about it, the more they felt it made sense: "No wonder the monk was so young, handsome, unfathomable, and so respected. It turned out to be the princess of the Dragon Clan. All these doubts were finally explained, and we went back to report immediately."
The monks left with all kinds of speculations and rumors, but Ye Feng didn't care. He had already entered Qifeng Island with Xu Han and other monks. Under the guidance and introduction of Xu Han and other monks, he began to inspect the construction and development of Qifeng Island.
Obviously, in the year when Ye Feng left, Qifeng Island had undergone a big or even earth-shaking change. Xu Han and other monks could clearly feel this change on Qifeng Island, let alone Ye Feng who had been away for a year. For Xu Han and other monks, if Ye Feng could be recognized by Ye Feng, it would be their greatest affirmation this year.
