Chapter 636: Chapter 33 Unpleasant

“Two top-grade Spirit Stones and five thousand high-grade Spirit Stones.”

Lin Feng’s Divine Sense withdrew from the storage pouch, revealing a faint smile on his lips.

These guys were indeed very wealthy.

However, considering the circumstances, it was quite normal; the Ancient Barbarian Mine was one of the three major mining areas of the Azure Cloud Sect, incomparable to ordinary Spiritual Mines. It was natural for these disciples to intercept some top-grade Spirit Stones.

Moreover, the identities of the disciples who served as supervisors in the Ancient Barbarian Mine were no ordinary.

Perhaps their Cultivation Talent wasn’t very impressive.

But their backgrounds often weren’t simple.

It’s possible that a disciple’s elder relative was a high-ranking member of the sect.

Among the children of sect high-ranking members, not all were talented; those with poor talent would often ask for transfers to lucrative positions.

Clearly, the mining areas were where they could make easy gains.

This phenomenon wasn’t limited to the Azure Cloud Sect.

Many sects experienced similar situations.

After putting away these items, Lin Feng then opened the documents left by Li Liang.

Wu Chang, the person in charge of the Ancient Barbarian Mine, was a Spirit Array Master and an extremely formidable figure.

“No. 1 Mining Area’s in charge, Zhou Zhao, whose uncle is Grand Elder Zhaang Quan of the Outer Disciples—is modest, good at networking, and highly esteemed among the disciples.”

Lin Feng smiled slightly; he hadn’t expected Zhou Zhao to have such a connection with Grand Elder Zhaang Quan.

When he was an Outer Disciple, Grand Elder Zhaang Quan took great care of Lin Feng, even helped him, and had high hopes for his future.

It could be said that among the disciples who had just joined the inner sect, Grand Elder Zhaang Quan valued Lin Feng the most.

Lin Feng felt that Zhou Zhao’s enthusiasm might also have been due to Grand Elder Zhaang Quan’s influence.

The person in charge of No. 2 Mining Area was named “Zhou Yuting,” known for her icy demeanor; her mother was the Fifth Elder at Refining Peak, and her father was unclear.

And Zhou Yuting liked women.

“Damn, that kid Li Liang is really something, even managed to find out that Zhou Yuting likes women,” Lin Feng couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

The person in charge of No. 3 Mining Area, Yue Zhuxin, with an unknown background and extraordinary origins, was said to have great talent and had come to the mine to utilize its vast resources to break through the Yin Yang Realm. She kept a low profile and mysterious, had never even been on the Heaven and Earth Ranking, but her Cultivation was absolutely powerful.

Although this woman appeared charming and alluring, she was in fact a particularly cold-blooded person. Once, a senior brother tried to tease Yue Zhuxin, but ended up with his Dantian destroyed by her. The sect did nothing about it, so Yue Zhuxin was definitely a fearsome figure.

The person in charge of No. 4 Mining Area was Jin Zhengkai, grandson of Second Elder Jin Tianzhao from Spirit Array Peak, proficient in grand Arrays but known for his lecherous behavior.

…

Lin Feng quickly finished reading the information, shaking his head; the heads of these four mining areas seemed quite complex.

In the evening, Zhou Zhao sent people to escort Lin Feng and the others to a banquet.

Lin Feng and his group then went to attend the banquet, arriving at Zhou Zhao’s residence in the No. 1 Mining Area. When Lin Feng and his group arrived, Zhou Zhao and four other mining area heads, leading over twenty core disciples, were already waiting for them.

“Haha, Junior Brother Lin and the others are here,” Zhou Zhao laughed.

Then Zhou Zhao started to introduce everyone.

“This is Junior Brother Lin Feng, this is Sister Yue Yuting, the head of No. 2 Mining Area, this is Sister Yue Zhuxin, in charge of No. 3 Mining Area, and this is Junior Brother Jin Zhengkai, the head of No. 4 Mining Area.”

The four of them exchanged greetings and got acquainted.

Lin Feng noticed that Zhou Yuting was actually very beautiful, tall and slender, with long legs, a slim waist, fair skin, and a pretty oval face. He wondered in his mind, such a beautiful woman with an… abnormal sexual orientation?

Did that kid Li Liang get it wrong?

Yue Zhuxin was also a first-class beauty, with fiery red lips, a charming presence, and enticing eyes like silk. She smiled at Lin Feng, her eyes shimmering as if she was seducing him.

However, Lin Feng knew from the information provided by Li Liang that this woman, although outwardly charming, was in reality a ruthless person and should absolutely not be fooled by her appearance.

In No.4 Mining Area, Jin Zhengkai, dressed in golden robes, also looked quite handsome, apart from his somewhat narrow eyes, which gave an uncomfortable impression.

“Everyone, please take your seats,” Zhou Zhao said with a smile.

The crowd then headed towards the main hall.

“Sister Shee Weizhu, I didn’t expect you to be here at Ancient Barbarian Mine,” Jin Zhengkai’s eyes suddenly brightened upon seeing Shee Weizhu, followed by a flash of malevolent light.

Shee Weizhu seemed pale upon seeing Jin Zhengkai.

She hadn’t expected to encounter Zhou Zhengkai here.

Lin Feng noticed Shee Weizhu’s discomfort and grabbed her jade hand.

Naturally, this scene did not escape the eyes of many.

Shee Weizhu looked up at Lin Feng and saw him smiling gently at her, causing the fear in her heart to gradually dissipate.

“Hmmph.” Jin Zhengkai’s expression darkened when he saw this, and he could not help but snort coldly before turning and walking towards the hall.

“This is getting interesting…” Yue Zhuxin’s lips curved into a faint smile, as she had heard some parts of the past events.

Zhou Yuting gave Shee Weizhu a meaningful look,

Zhou Zhao chuckled wryly, clearly noticing some animosity brewing between Lin Feng and Jin Zhengkai.

Zhou Zhao tried to ease the atmosphere, saying with a laugh, “Let’s not stop here, please sit down quickly. Today, we must have our fill!”

The crowd took their seats, and with Zhou Zhao and several beautiful female disciples enlivening the atmosphere, it was quite lively.

Midway through the banquet, Jin Zhengkai looked at Lin Feng, his tone somewhat mocking, “I hear that Junior Brother Lin is on good terms with Senior Brother Guo Xiao?”

Lin Feng nodded, responding, “I am indeed in good relations with Senior Brother Guo Xiao. I wonder why Senior Brother Jin brings this up?”

“No wonder there’s a rumor that Junior Brother Lin secured this team leader position through Senior Brother Guo Xiao’s connections. It seems there is some truth in it after all.”

Jin Zhengkai said, barely able to conceal his mockery.

The disciples who had come with Lin Feng were inwardly sneering, some of whom, having been in the sect for a few years, vaguely knew about the past affairs of Jin Zhengkai and Shee Weizhu, now secretly sympathizing with Jin Zhengkai.

This guy must not know how terrifying Junior Brother Lin truly is, daring to act up in front of Junior Brother Lin.

The smile on Yue Zhuxin’s lips grew even more charming upon hearing Jin Zhengkai’s remarks.

Zhou Yuting slightly furrowed her brows as she glanced at Shee Weizhu.

Ever since Shee Weizhu arrived here, Zhou Yuting’s gaze often turned towards her, raising doubts if Zhou Yuting was really as interested in women as Li Liang had told.

Zhou Zhao then said in a stern voice, “Junior Brother Jin, I think you’re drunk.”

Jin Zhengkai replied dismissively, “What? Can’t even speak the truth now?”

Lin Feng said calmly, “Senior Brother Jin is drunk, I won’t blame him, but next time, don’t speak nonsense in front of me, or else don’t blame me for not respecting the codes of our brotherhood.”

Lin Feng took a sip of wine and stood up to walk outside.

Swish…

All the twenty-plus disciples who had come with him stood up and followed him outside.

“This guy certainly has some personality,” Yue Zhuxin said with a slight smile.

“Threatening me? How interesting,” Jin Zhengkai’s mouth curled into a chilling sneer.

Remembering the scene where Lin Feng had held Shee Weizhu’s hand, Jin Zhengkai’s smile grew even wider; however, the sneer on his lips sent chills down the spines of many onlookers.
