"Ha ha," Yi Feng faintly smiled and took out a knife, saying, "Here, for you."
As soon as Yi Feng's words fell, the Qingshan Patriarch's blood swelled and he felt like he couldn't breathe.
Sure enough!
The senior had already seen through his intention of coming here. Without waiting for him to speak, he directly took out the knife.
Such great kindness.
It simply moved him to tears.
"Master Yi's great kindness, Qingshan is unforgettable." He solemnly and tremblingly took over the vegetable knife in Yi Feng's hand. The Qingshan Patriarch was so excited that he knelt down directly.
Next to him, Zhu Yun also reacted.
He finally understood that the knife the Qingshan Patriarch was talking about was this vegetable knife in front of him.
No wonder when the whole sect was worrying about the Xuanwu Patriarch, the Qingshan Patriarch, as the person involved, could still remain calm and say he was going to borrow a knife.
At first, he didn't think there was any knife that could match the 10 years of cultivation at the Martial King Realm, but now at first glance, his worries were all gone.
Following the Qingshan Patriarch, he also knelt down to Yi Feng.
"What are you doing? Get up quickly," Seeing them kneel down, Yi Feng hurried to help them both up.
But they stubbornly kowtowed heavily on the ground before they were willing to get up.
"Alas, why did you have to do this? It's just a vegetable knife!" Yi Feng lamented.
The reason why he gave the vegetable knife to the Qingshan Patriarch was because he had heard the Qingshan Patriarch yearn for having such a vegetable knife when they cooked together last time.
He could see that the Qingshan Patriarch longed to have a vegetable knife in his home. As it happened, he had made a new one, and the old one was no longer needed, so he simply gave it to the Qingshan Patriarch.
In this world, the rich flow with oil, while the poor are truly poor.
Especially people like Qingshan, who probably don't even have a decent vegetable knife at home. He didn't know how they usually cut vegetables, maybe they just twisted them directly with their hands...
Alas!
Thinking about it this way, Yi Feng could understand why they were so excited. For them, this knife was probably like a godsend in the snow!
"For Master Yi it is indeed just a vegetable knife, but for me it is simply a godsend!" Qingshan Patriarch said excitedly.
Sure enough.
Yi Feng sighed slightly, feeling quite heartbroken for the Qingshan Patriarch.
The Qingshan Patriarch carefully put away the vegetable knife, his gratitude to Yi Feng reaching for the sky.
He had originally thought that this trip to borrow a knife would be full of difficulties and obstacles. After all, it was a high-level artifact like this, and he and Yi Feng were just acquaintances. He really had no idea if the other party would be willing to lend it to him.
But who could have imagined that the senior would give him the knife without waiting for him to ask?
With this knife, he was fully confident in fighting the Xuanwu Patriarch. This not only saved him, the Qingshan Patriarch, but also saved his entire Qingshan Sect.
So it was by no means excessive to kneel down to Yi Feng.
After a long, long time, the two finally calmed down somewhat from the excitement, and were not as lost in joy as before.
"Master Yi, I, Qingshan, find it difficult to repay your kindness. Although I know my things are not worth mentioning to you, please still accept this." As he spoke, the Qingshan Patriarch took out a fiery red bead from his storage bag.
As the bead was taken out, the surrounding temperature kept rising.
"Master... uncle, the Flame Pearl!" Zhu Yun exclaimed, also not expecting that the Qingshan Patriarch would take out the treasure that protected the Qingshan Sect.
But on second thought, being able to borrow the precious knife from the senior, giving out a Flame Pearl was nothing.
"Master Yi, please be sure to accept it."
The Qingshan Patriarch bowed with both hands holding up the Flame Pearl to Yi Feng.
"This thing..."
Yi Feng looked over the Flame Pearl and found that it was red throughout, emitting a very high temperature from within. He didn't know which volcanic mole it had been dug out from either.
Of course, after all, this was a different world, and there were many such odd and bizarre things, so Yi Feng was not surprised. As a souvenir it was still quite nice.
"It looks quite pleasing when put on display, I like it very much, so I'll accept it." Yi Feng did not reject Qingshan either. He knew that Qingshan was a very polite person with character.
Such a person would not like to directly take benefits from others.
So if he refused, it would instead make the Qingshan Patriarch feel that he was looking down on his things.
Seeing Yi Feng accept it, the Qingshan Patriarch finally breathed a sigh of relief, though his face also showed some helplessness.
Before giving the gift, he had actually racked his brains a lot, thinking back and forth before deciding to take out this Flame Pearl. In his opinion, after all, it was the treasure that protected his Qingshan Sect. Even if it was nothing rare in this senior's eyes, it should still be enough to astonish him.
But the result was that in the senior's words, it was just a decorative item. This made the Qingshan Patriarch feel very frustrated.
Indeed, the difference in status and position also leads to a huge difference in horizons!
After thanking him repeatedly, the Qingshan Patriarch seemed to remember something and asked meaningfully, "Master Yi, I wonder what plans you have for the future? Could you reveal a little to me and my nephew?"
Hearing this, Zhu Yun also pricked up his ears.

m back to his original world. In the end, he realized he had overthought things. [Hey, why is Shen Manni, the female lead, acting strange? Shouldn't she be fawning over the male lead at this point?] [Zhou Qiaoqiao, are you sick? Weren't you supposed to break off your engagement today?] [Damn it! An Youyi, please do your job as an undercover agent and sell my information to the protagonist, you idiot!] ... At this moment, Xu Mo himself didn't know that these female leads had already heard his inner thoughts. Then they decided not to play by the rules. Xu Mo: Please respect my profession as the big villain!

transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
