"That’s right, what is the Feng Family worth? Even if the Patriarch himself cos, we can easily wipe them out."
"Go! Kill them and bring the herbs back to the Patriarch."
"The Feng Family? An existence as trivial as ants, and they think they’re worthy of being compared to our Situ Family?"
So, incited by Situ Ze, these elders beca extrely furious and imdiately prepared to charge over and annihilate Ye Feng and the others.
"I heard his identity is quite unusual, even Second Master Feng has to show respect in his presence." Seeing the situation taking a turn for the worse, the elder following Situ Jing quickly spoke up.
With his words, everyone was finally stunned.
While the Feng Family may not pose much of a threat to the Situ Family, the Feng Family is a formidable second-tier hidden family that the Situ Family absolutely cannot afford to provoke.
Therefore, everyone froze for a mont.
"Although the Feng Family is powerful, their people aren’t here, so what are we afraid of?" At this mont, Situ Ze incited once again.
Initially, he didn’t want to do this, but upon hearing that Ye Feng had the divine dicine to save his father, he had no choice but to proceed this way.
He couldn’t allow the divine dicine in Ye Feng’s hands to fall into the Situ Family’s hands, so he wanted to force Ye Feng to destroy the dicine through such ans.
In his view, knowing that he cannot win and that the Situ Family wants to steal the dicine, Ye Feng would surely threaten with the divine dicine on the spot, and then destroy it.
Thus, he incited the elders without sparing any effort, aiming to provoke both sides and further escalate the conflict.
However, this ti his words didn’t have much effect. Although so elders were eager to try, most of them opted to wait and see, as they weren’t willing to directly offend the Feng Family.
"Masters, how about I try to persuade him? If I fail, you can continue with the plan to seize it?" Seeing an opportunity arise, Situ Jing said quickly.
"Hmm! That’s the only way. You must intimidate him to hand over the divine dicine, or else don’t bla us for being rude." Upon hearing Situ Jing’s words, the Grand Elder’s eyes lit up as he quickly gestured.
"Yes! I’ll go right away." Situ Jing nodded quickly and turned towards the guest area.
Seeing this scene, Situ Ze initially wanted to stop her, but he feared that further intervention would arouse suspicion among these old fellows, so he held back.
Moreover, in his opinion, sending Situ Jing to persuade wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.
Given his understanding of Situ Jing, he thought she would likely tell the other side everything, or even help them escape.
If Situ Jing really managed to help Ye Feng escape, he would actually be very excited, as it would be a win-win situation for him.
Without urging, if Ye Feng did escape, he could not only expel Situ Jing from the Situ Family but also prevent the divine dicine from falling into Situ Family’s hands.
Thinking this way, he felt delighted in his heart.
...
On the other side, under the protection of the elder, Situ Jing arrived at the room where Ye Feng and the others were located.
"How’s it going?" Seeing Situ Jing return, Ye Feng asked with a smile.
"Run! You need to escape quickly." Once she entered the room and saw only the three of them, Situ Jing’s expression changed as she quietly indicated.
"Escape? Why?" Hearing this, Ye Feng asked with so confusion.
"They don’t believe in your dical skills and want to seize your eight-thousand-year ginseng, even if it ans killing you." Situ Jing answered honestly.
"Hah! Is this how your Situ Family treats guests?" Hearing this, Ye Feng imdiately laughed with disdain.
Originally, he assisted only out of pity for Situ Jing.
He never expected that the Situ Family would be so treacherous, seeking to kill him. Truly appalling.
"That’s not how it is, but my brother kept inciting them, and under his instigation, their emotions flared up..." At this, Situ Jing started crying.
"Your brother? Why would he do that?" Hearing this, Ye Feng asked with a frown.
Ye Feng believed he hadn’t offended her brother, so why would her brother target him? It didn’t make sense.
"It’s like this..." Under Ye Feng’s questioning, Situ Jing explained how Situ Ze wanted to harm their father, seize the Situ Family’s power, and even eliminate her, fully informing Ye Feng.
She also expressed that she had no interest in the power within the Situ Family, but for her father’s sake and to heal him, she had to resist Situ Ze, hoping to save her father from Situ Ze’s clutches.
"Oh~ I see." Hearing this, Ye Feng imdiately felt relieved.
In his view, since Situ Ze wanted to remove the Patriarch of the Situ Family, stirring up hostility wouldn’t be his only tactic.
Perhaps, after everyone arrived, he would seize the chance to provoke Ye Feng, implying Ye Feng should use the ginseng to threaten, and then anger Ye Feng into destroying the ginseng, or destroy it amidst the chaos.
In this way, his goals would be achieved.
"But if I leave, what will you do? What about your father?" Understanding this, Ye Feng looked at Situ Jing and asked.
Situ Ze and the people of Situ Family may be treacherous, but this girl was still decent.
Knowing Ye Feng was in danger, she unhesitatingly sought to help him escape.
"I have no more options! I don’t know what else to do." Saying this, Situ Jing cried anxiously, appearing quite pitiful.
"How about this, I’ll help you and also help save your father, but you have to agree to one condition of mine, how about it?" Seeing Situ Jing looking pitiful, Ye Feng softened and said.
"What condition?" Situ Jing reflexively asked.
"If I help you and heal your father, then you must accompany to the Jia Rong Mountain Range and serve as my maid during this ti." Then, Ye Feng smiled and stated his condition.
"Ah?" Hearing Ye Feng’s words, Situ Jing blushed imdiately.
"No... You should leave quickly! I know your status is honorable, but the Grand Elder is at the peak of High-Level Martial Venerable, the Second Elder is a High-Level Martial Venerable, and the Third Elder is an Interdiate Martial Venerable, you are no match against them." Realizing it, Situ Jing hurriedly indicated.
"What! Peak of High-Level Martial Venerable? Is the Situ Family’s strength that formidable?" Hearing this, Feng Gu’s expression changed drastically.
Originally, he planned to assist Ye Feng and Situ Jing, but upon hearing the opponent’s strength, he decided it might be best to run.
At the sa ti, they hadn’t realized the gap between the Situ Family and the Feng Family was so vast.
Feng Gu, being a Patriarch, was just an Interdiate Martial Venerable, but the Grand Elder of the Situ Family was already at the Peak of High-Level Martial Venerable. Could it be that the Patriarch of the Situ Family had already reached the peak of Martial Venerable realm? Perhaps even half-step into Martial Saint?
Thinking about this was terrifying...
