A few people sighed deeply for a long time.
They recalled the great opportunity, even the chance for the entire sect to rise, that was right before their eyes. But the four people had let it go, giving that old bastard Ye Neng a freebie.
A piercing pain in their hearts.
Regretting it till their guts turned green.
"Forget it, what's done is done. We were short-sighted, unable to recognize our senior, it must be our bad luck. Our senior surely wouldn't take it to heart since ignorance is bliss. Let's talk about what we should do next?" Liu Guyi couldn't help but ask after calming down.
"Right, think of something. How do we get close to him?" Li Canghai asked.
"I think there's no hurry."
Yun Tianlong looked thoughtful and said, "Now that we know this senior's identity, there will be plenty of chances in the future. We absolutely can't rashly approach."
"Well said."
Jian Hengtian nodded, "Especially with that old bastard Ye Neng there right now. If we just went up it'd definitely disturb things."
"Yeah, we can wait until they leave, then go to that shop to ask around before deciding." Liu Guyi said.
The few people nodded in agreement.
They concealed themselves again.
After Yi Feng and the others left, the four dashed out and arrived at the shop entrance.
"Anybody here?"
The four restrained their auras and came to stand outside the shop door.
"Honored customers, what would you like to buy?" Yun's Mother walked out smiling.
"Cough, we're here to ask you something." Jian Hengtian let out a cold humph and began interrogating fiercely, "Just tell us everything you know from now on."
Seeing Jian Hengtian's fierce appearance, Yun's Mother took two steps back in fright and anxiously asked, "What do you want to do?"
Liu Guyi saw this and immediately glared at Jian Hengtian. He walked up to Yun's Mother with a smile, gently asking, "Boss lady, don't mind him. We've come looking for someone."
"I don't know who you're looking for?" Yun's Mother looked at Liu Guyi and asked.
"We're looking for someone called Ye Neng and a youth in white clothes. We're friends with them. We heard from others they stopped at your shop, is that right?" Liu Guyi casually asked.
"So you are Ye Neng and Master Yi's friends?"
Yun's Mother's eyes lit up and she quickly laughed, "I thought you wanted to dig up some news. You scared me. Since you are their friends please sit, please sit."
After the four sat down, Yun's Mother smiled and said, "I won't hide it from you. Master Yi and Ye Neng were just here eating. They left not long ago."
"Are you very familiar with them?" Liu Guyi's gaze stirred as he asked, "What is your relationship?"
"I can't say we're familiar. It's just that Master Yi and my daughter are fellow sect members." Yun's Mother said smiling.
"Fellow sect members?"
The four's eyeballs bulged out.
The old woman's daughter was actually fellow sect members with that senior!
"May I ask which sect your daughter is in?" Liu Guyi quietly asked again.
"It's the Qingniu Sect outside Bai'ercheng." Yun's mother softly said.
"Qingniu Sect?"
The four's eyeballs bulged again. Li Canghai couldn't help but ask, "You mean your daughter and Master Yi are both Qingniu Sect?"
"That's right. Though I heard from my daughter that Master Yi had just joined the Qingniu Sect recently, only a few days." Yun's Mother said.
Hearing the confirmation, the four were suddenly disheartened like deflated balls.
A piercing pain in their chests.
Originally this senior was going to join their Four Great Sects!
Yet now he'd fallen into the lap of a Qingniu Sect that was just about to hit it big.
Damn!
Yun's Mother didn't notice the four's reactions. Thinking of Yi Feng who was knowledgeable and courteous, she couldn't help adding, "This Master Yi really is a good person. Though he just joined the Qingniu Sect, he could be considered half a master to my daughter."
"Oh? Why do you say so?"
The four quickly asked.
"Just look over there."
Yun's Mother pointed to the elaborately framed painting and sculpture on the wall, quite proud as she said, "Master Yi taught my daughter to paint and sculpt those."
Hearing this, the four's feet froze to the floor.
Their gazes whipped over to look at the painting and sculpture, eyes bulging out, stiffly staring dead at them. Their eyes' first reaction was to reveal covetous color.
Their whole bodies' cultivation involuntarily surged forth.
Just when the atmosphere was tense, Liu Guyi's cold voice transmission fell in their ears.
"Consider the consequences before acting. I'm just giving you a reminder, any other thoughts are best rid of!"
These words were like a bucket of cold water poured over them, instantly dispelling their notions.
"Forget it, my chest hurts. You ask, I'm going outside for some peace and quiet."
Li Canghai walked out the door, his face ashen.
"My chest hurts too. I want to go outside for some cold air."
Yun Tianlong was equally upset, his face twisted.
"My chest hurts too."
Jian Hengtian clutched his chest, heaving a long sigh full of regret before leaving.
Liu Guyi was full of bitter smiles.
Who said her chest didn't hurt?
That painting and sculpture should have been in their Four Great Sects!
Now they were set up in this secular little shop. They didn't even dare make a play for them. Can you imagine how they felt?
After asking Yun's Mother some more, the four left the shop and gathered together again.
"Three key points."
Liu Guyi solemnly said, "Our Four Great Sects must try hard to get on good terms with this shop and that old woman's daughter. Especially the little miss, she'll be a famous figure across North Sea in the future."
The other three solemnly nodded.
They had no disagreements here whatsoever. Even a fool would know they had to do this.
"Also, the Qingniu Sect..."
"Though it pains me to say this, we have to admit the Qingniu Sect is going to swiftly rise across North Sea in the future, perhaps even surpassing our Four Great Sects!" Liu Guyi solemnly continued.
The few revealed bitter smiles.
Though extremely unwilling, they really had no choice but to admit it!
Who told them to be blind back then?
"The last and most important bit of news is to notify our Four Great Sects' people to keep their disciples in line. If they happen to meet our senior and have great luck, they must leave a good impression." Liu Guyi solemnly added.
"Good. Old Yun paint our senior's portrait. I'll notify the Guiyi Hall's person now to spread word and the portrait to our Four Great Sects." Li Canghai said.
After finishing speaking, Li Canghai took out a voice transmission jade tablet to notify Guiyi Hall's person-in-charge.
Very quickly, the person-in-charge flew over.
"Greetings to the four great sect leaders. May I ask what this lowly one can assist with?" The Guiyi Hall person-in-charge stood respectfully before the four.
"This is a portrait. Take a good look."
Yun Tianlong took out the portrait of Yi Feng he just painted and handed it to the Guiyi Hall person-in-charge.
The person-in-charge accepted the portrait and seriously examined it. Then he raised his head and asked, "I've seen this man before, may I ask why the sect leaders painted his portrait?"
"What?"
"You've seen him before?"
The four's eyes bulged out, their gazes uniformly falling onto the person-in-charge.
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family."

Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
