CHAPTER 788: CHAPTER 788 TIANXING VENERABLE

"Whoosh—"

As Zhu Fei’s words fell, the crowd of Cultivators originally gathered to observe couldn’t help but let out a soft gasp.

None of them had expected that this young Cultivator who had suddenly appeared would have such audacity to talk to Master Canghai and the people of Qinghai Immortal Island in such a manner.

For a moment, the onlookers looked at Zhu Fei with a hint of peculiarity in their gaze.

Even the teacher-student duo, Ouyang Ming and Guo Ying, had exceptionally ’vivid’ expressions on their faces at this moment.

Especially Guo Ying, the young girl had long been extremely displeased with Master Canghai and Gui Yanping. Hearing Zhu Fei’s words aimed at Master Canghai and Gui Yanping, her pretty eyes immediately curved slightly.

"Brat, you’re courting death!"

Evil Qi flashed across Master Canghai’s face, and suddenly, a vast oceanic illusion appeared behind him in the void, like surging waves crashing against the shore, with the sounds of the tumultuous waves echoing endlessly between heaven and earth.

"Friend, I seem to recognize you."

Gui Yanping stepped forward at this point, and he whispered something to Master Canghai, then immediately looked back at Zhu Fei, his eyes shining fiercely as he said:

"If I’m not mistaken, you must be Zhu Fei, the Sect Master of the Yue Dan Heavenly Sect?"

"Swipe—"

As soon as Gui Yanping’s words were out, certain people in the crowd immediately turned towards Zhu Fei, their eyes revealing emotions of surprise, confusion, realization, and various other feelings.

Among them, there were those who had heard of Zhu Fei, and naturally, there were also those who did not recognize him.

But these were not the main points; the main point was the four words "Yue Dan Heavenly Sect."

Ever since some time ago, when Zhu Fei cooperated with Wantong Commerce to sell Pills, the Yue Dan Heavenly Sect had fully entered into the sight of many people.

They all knew that the Pills sold by the Yue Dan Heavenly Sect through Wantong Commerce, whether in terms of quantity or quality, were much superior to the Pills currently sold by all other Sects.

As a result, the Pills sold by the Yue Dan Heavenly Sect naturally became the target of pursuit for most Cultivators.

In such a case, even if others did not wish to know about the Sect of Yue Dan Heavenly Sect, it was hardly possible.

However, right now, people were encountering the Sect Master of Yue Dan Heavenly Sect at this place, and in such a manner, how could the majority not be surprised?

However, as surprising as it was, when people realized the current relationship between Zhu Fei and Wantong Commerce, they somewhat understood why Zhu Fei had acted that way just a moment ago.

"So what if you do?"

Zhu Fei looked lethargic, his gaze quite playful as he watched Gui Yanping.

Gui Yanping felt a dark anger under Zhu Fei’s gaze and couldn’t help but coldly smirk, "Young man, sometimes when speaking and doing things, you need to be a bit more low-key, otherwise dying so pointlessly like this, wouldn’t that be very unjust?"

Zhu Fei’s eyes suddenly narrowed slightly, and then he suddenly bellowed, "Scram! What are you to speak to me? Nothing but a turtle, how I handle matters, do I need to be taught by the likes of you, a turtle grandson?"

"Zhu Fei, you...!"

Gui Yanping’s eyebrows twitched, and his gaze suddenly shot out an incredibly cold light.

He then took a deep breath and, with a curve of his mouth, actually started to laugh with a "Hehe."

"Good, very good! So infuriatingly good!"

Speaking thus, Gui Yanping’s smile on his face suddenly vanished, and he then bowed his fists to everyone present, saying,

"Fellow Daoists, you must have witnessed the scene just now. Zhu Fei was being unreasonable, not only interfering with our Qinghai Immortal Island’s business dealings but also speaking rudely. Such behavior has severely breached our market regulations..."

At this point, Gui Yanping’s gaze suddenly shifted to a certain spot in the void.

Seeing Gui Yanping’s gesture, Ouyang Ming’s complexion couldn’t help but change slightly.

A dreadful premonition sprung up from the depths of his heart.

Sure enough, Gui Yanping composed himself, then suddenly bowed his fists toward that spot in the void, asking,

"May I ask Tianxing Venerable, should Zhu Fei’s earlier actions warrant an immediate execution? I hope Tianxing Venerable can provide our Sect with an explanation."

"Buzz...!"

At the instant Gui Yanping’s words ended, a humanoid silhouette suddenly emerged from the void where previously there was nothing.

This person had white eyebrows and white hair. Her eyes shone like stars, her skin was as white as snow, and her features were exquisitely perfect. Her figure was also exceptionally slender and graceful, indeed, a genuine great beauty.

Her gaze first swept over everyone present, and finally rested on Zhu Fei, speaking indifferently, "Master Zhu, at this point, do you have anything to say?"

Facing the Tianxing Venerable’s tranquil eyes, Zhu Fei felt a chill in his heart.

He had already noticed that even this projection alone emitted an aura in no way inferior to the might of the Late Stage of Great Success.

One could imagine, if the mere projection was this powerful, how formidable the true cultivation of Tianxing Venerable must be.

Zhu Fei’s thoughts raced, but without any hesitation, he promptly replied with a faint smile, "I certainly have something to say."

After a brief pause, Zhu Fei continued, "Not to conceal from you, Tianxing Venerable, the reason for my actions is that I cannot stand the behavior of certain people and Sects.

A deal that had already been agreed upon by both parties, yet some Sects insist on forcibly interfering. Even more hateful is the behavior of certain individuals, who disregard integrity, showing no appreciation for face given."

"Bastard! You’re courting death!"

As soon as Zhu Fei finished speaking, Master Canghai was the first to lose his composure, his face nearly turning the color of dark purple.

Gui Yanping’s expression was also unsightly, but being somewhat more cunning, he didn’t explode with rage like Master Canghai. Instead, he squinted his eyes with a smile and looked at Zhu Fei, saying,

"Master Zhu, it may not be appropriate for you to say so. If you do not possess the magical crystal from this transaction among our parties, what right do you have to criticize us? Merely in the name of so-called justice, huh?"

Undeniably, Gui Yanping did have some logic to his words just now; after all, if you don’t participate, you don’t have a say, do you?

Everyone here carries a certain status, and accordingly, they do not act unreasonably like the common folk.

"Heh, so what Manager Gui means is that if I can produce the magical crystal and am willing to trade with Wantong Commerce, then my actions just now would not be meddling or creating trouble, right?"

Zhu Fei asked in return, hands behind his head, looking leisurely toward Gui Yanping.

Gui Yanping’s expression faltered, a sense of foreboding naturally welling up in his heart.

But since he had already spoken his piece, there was no turning back now; he could only feign composure and say, "Naturally."

After a brief pause, Gui Yanping added another sentence, "Similarly, if you cannot achieve what you just stated, you must also pay the price for your actions just now."
