Chapter 1565: Chapter 1556: Hidden Killing Intent

Under the leadership of Supreme Elders Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an of the Red Flame Sect, Ye Chenfeng and the others headed towards the main hall of the Red Flame Sect.

On this journey.

Sun Xiaoli and Sun Hengfei, along with the others, had not yet recovered from their shock, especially since Elder Wu Dongyuan of the Law Enforcement Hall had just knelt down to apologize to them, giving Sun Xiaoli and the others an almost dreamlike feeling.

Sun Xiaoli and the others looked at Ye Chenfeng walking alongside the ancestors of the Red Flame Sect, and they found it truly impossible to calm their emotions.

At first, Sun Xiaoli and the others thought that after Ye Chenfeng came to the Earth Profound Realm, his strength should not be that formidable.

But the result? Ye Chenfeng’s displayed strength made Sun Xiaoli and the others feel that their thoughts were utterly ridiculous.

Later, after Ye Chenfeng crippled Wu Li, Elder Wu Dongyuan from the Law Enforcement Hall intervened, and Sun Xiaoli and the others believed that they and Ye Chenfeng were certainly doomed.

And the result? The ancestors of the Red Flame Sect appeared, and those two ancestors repeatedly called Ye Chenfeng their master, even making Wu Dongyuan and the others kneel to apologize,

Everything was beyond the expectations of Sun Xiaoli and Sun Hengfei.

Sun Xiaoli and Sun Hengfei recalled the scene when Ye Chenfeng first arrived in the Ancient Martial World years ago.

At that time, Sun Xiaoli and Sun Hengfei did not recognize Ye Chenfeng at all, but in the end, Ye Chenfeng’s displayed strength and charm conquered them.

Now, Sun Xiaoli and Sun Hengfei finally confirmed one thing: no matter where he is, the brilliance of Ye Chenfeng can never be overshadowed.

In the eyes of Sun Xiaoli and Sun Hengfei, as long as Ye Chenfeng is present, miracles seem to happen at any moment.

The two ancestors of the Red Flame Sect, walking side by side with Ye Chenfeng in the lead, exchanged a glance, and in their eyes, a trace of ruthlessness appeared.

Zeng Guangyuan spoke up: “Master, that Wu Dongyuan is an elder of the Law Enforcement Hall in the Red Flame Sect, and he holds a certain status within the sect. We didn’t kill him earlier because it would cause turmoil within the Red Flame Sect.”

“Moreover, we two are Supreme Elders of the Red Flame Sect. If we directly acted to kill Wu Dongyuan, it would provoke dissatisfaction among the other disciples, and then the disciples within the Red Flame Sect would have no sense of belonging.”

Qian Rong’an quickly chimed in: “However, Master, you can rest assured about one thing. Within five days, we will make Wu Dongyuan completely disappear from this world.”

Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an were not soft-hearted people. In their view, Wu Dongyuan, who had just knelt down and apologized to Ye Chenfeng and others, certainly harbored resentment.

Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an would not let such a person continue to live in this world. They did not kill Wu Dongyuan publicly because they planned to make him disappear quietly and without a trace later.

Ye Chenfeng, with the Black Xuan Sword on his back, was a wise man. Naturally, he knew Zeng Guangyuan’s and Qian Rong’an’s thoughts, and he expressed no opinion, merely smiling indifferently.

Since he planned to give Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an pointers on formation knowledge, Ye Chenfeng decided to stay in the Red Flame Sect to cultivate for a while.

After cultivating for a period in the Red Flame Sect, Ye Chenfeng would immediately head to the Yinming Sect to rescue Lin Xinyi.

…

While Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an were leading Ye Chenfeng and others towards the main hall of the Red Flame Sect.

In Elder Wu Dongyuan’s room in the Law Enforcement Hall.

At this moment, Wu Dongyuan sat in the chair, his two palms tightly clenched into fists.

From the slight trembling of Wu Dongyuan’s fists, one could almost see the anger in his heart at this moment.

Wu Dongyuan’s eldest grandson, Wu Li, was lying with vacant eyes.

His younger grandson, Wu Nan, stood silently beside Wu Dongyuan.

Wu Nan finally couldn’t help but speak: “Grandfather, what should we do now? I’m afraid the Red Flame Sect will have no place for us in the future.”

Sitting in the chair, Wu Dongyuan furrowed his eyebrows tightly, rage instantly spreading across his face, and he said word by word: “In the future, the Red Flame Sect will be my Wu Dongyuan’s world.”

Hearing this, Wu Nan, standing beside Wu Dongyuan, was slightly stunned and looked at his grandfather with a puzzled gaze.

Even Wu Li, who lay with vacant eyes, turned his gaze to his grandfather Wu Dongyuan.

Feeling the gaze of his two grandsons, Wu Dongyuan said: “I didn’t tell you about this because I was afraid you might leak the information.”

“The Sect Master of the Red Flame Sect has only a few days to live; should be poisoned to death within one to two days. The poison in him was administered by someone I arranged. This poison is colorless and tasteless, and one feels nothing special. Only after seventy-seven days will the toxin erupt instantly, and once it erupts, the poisoned person will die with rotting intestines within a day.”

“As long as the Sect Master dies, I am confident I can control the Red Flame Sect.”

Wu Nan, standing beside Wu Dongyuan, had a drastic change of expression upon hearing his grandfather’s words. He said with a trembling voice: “Grandfather, what if Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an trace it back to us?”

Wu Dongyuan’s eyes were filled with murderous intent, and he smiled: “By then, someone will naturally dispose of them. By the time they suspect us, it will all be too late.”

Wu Dongyuan looked at Wu Li and Wu Nan, saying: “You two can rest assured, the whole matter is under my control. The Red Flame Sect will be our Wu family’s world. The reason I was willing to kneel and apologize just now was to endure humiliation for a greater cause.”

“Those two old men even acknowledged a boy at the Divine Thought Realm as their master? Once I control the Red Flame Sect, I’ll leave that boy’s fate to you two to handle.”

Upon hearing their grandfather Wu Dongyuan’s confident words, Wu Li and Wu Nan had peculiar excitement on their faces. Especially with thoughts of Ye Chenfeng in their minds, the anger in their hearts almost exploded in their chests.

The corners of Wu Li’s and Wu Nan’s eyes flickered with sinister light, and they wanted Ye Chenfeng dead, they wanted Ye Chenfeng to die painfully, to die without a place of burial.

…

As Wu Dongyuan plotted his scheme in his heart.

The two ancestors of the Red Flame Sect had already brought Ye Chenfeng and others into the main hall.

Several tables and chairs were arranged in the main hall.

Sun Xiaoli, Sun Hengfei, Zheng Mei, and the others sat somewhat nervously. On the tables in front of them were fine wine and dishes.

Zheng Mei, since she was Sun Xiaoli’s master, also came along.

Though Zheng Mei was an elder of the Red Flame Sect, she was only an ordinary elder and never thought she would one day dine with the two ancestors of the Red Flame Sect.

Zheng Mei looked at Sun Xiaoli beside her and whispered: “Xiaoli, today your master is benefiting from your glow!”

After Sun Xiaoli and the others took their seats.

Soon, a middle-aged man appeared in the main hall.

This middle-aged man appeared quite rough, wearing a fiery red long robe. He was the Sect Master of the Red Flame Sect, Zhao Lengfeng, with strength at the peak of the Reincarnation Realm’s third layer.

Upon stepping into the main hall, Zhao Lengfeng hurriedly greeted Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an respectfully: “Ancestors.”

Qian Rong’an waved his hand and pointed to Ye Chenfeng beside him: “This is my master. In the future, you must also address him as ancestor, do you understand?”

Then, Zeng Guangyuan also said: “Indeed, he is also my master. Aren’t you going to call him anything?”

Zhao Lengfeng was still unaware of the recent conflict between Ye Chenfeng and Wu Dongyuan, as he was just notified that two ancestors were in the main hall, so he hurriedly came over.

Zhao Lengfeng’s gaze turned to Ye Chenfeng, and he immediately frowned tightly.

Since Ye Chenfeng wasn’t concealing his aura, Zhao Lengfeng instantly sensed Ye Chenfeng’s strength. A mere boy at the Divine Thought Realm? This boy at the Divine Thought Realm is supposed to be the master of the two ancestors? This made Zhao Lengfeng’s face turn slightly cold.

Zhao Lengfeng, after all, was a master at the peak of the Reincarnation Realm’s third layer, and his temperament was extremely fiery and straightforward. He didn’t think this boy in front of him warranted being called an ancestor by him.

Ye Chenfeng seemed quite indifferent to these matters, especially since Old Bai Wu Fengxian’s voice rang in his mind: “Little one, there’s something strange about this person’s aura. It’s likely he’s been poisoned and doesn’t know it yet!”

Ye Chenfeng only shrugged his shoulders casually at this, as he wasn’t one to put on a warm face to a cold backside. He casually said to Zeng Guangyuan and Qian Rong’an: “No need, let him address me as he pleases.”
