Everyone's legs were trembling.
The conversation from earlier reverberated in their minds, refusing to fade away.
Was it true that the cultivation levels of these thirteen individuals had been granted by Yi Feng?
And he had the audacity to call it "just a little bit"?
Were they really eating monsters?
What kind of ridiculous talk was this?
It seemed that these miscellaneous personnel were indeed just ordinary miscellaneous personnel, not hidden masters, and their cultivation levels were all thanks to Yi Feng.
And Su Bai and the others hunted creatures like the Fire Demon Dragon just because Yi Feng wanted to eat?
Wang Yue and the others shivered uncontrollably, their eyes wide with disbelief.
If they hadn't heard it with their own ears and seen it with their own eyes, even if someone swore on their entire family's life, they wouldn't have believed it.
In this situation, what kind of terrifying powerhouse must Yi Feng be?
They couldn't even begin to imagine.
But from this, they also understood many things. Why had Shi Qingwu suddenly brought Yi Feng back? It wasn't because she was in dire straits; instead, she was holding a trump card!
They finally understood why Shi Qingwu had shut herself in for seclusion immediately after bringing Yi Feng back, showing no fear of any mishaps happening to him.
In contrast, their hearts filled with fear began to beat rapidly.
After all, they were all part of the Great Elder's faction!
Exchange glancing among themselves, they quickly retreated in silence and began taking covert actions in the shadows.
Three days.
Just like that, three days passed by.
During these three days, Yi Feng had been busy with the little servants, curing jerky, completely ignoring what was happening outside.
At this moment, Su Bai came to report.
Master, today is the Hundred Refinements Sect's annual Clan Assembly. During the meeting, they may discuss your and Sect Master Shi Qingwu's engagement. However, the sect master is still in closed-door cultivation and hasn't emerged yet, so the Elder Council has invited you to attend," Su Bai said respectfully.
"Oh!"
Yi Feng hadn't been planning to get involved in these matters, just wanting to wait for Shi Qingwu to emerge from seclusion so he could get paid and leave.
But it seemed he had no choice now.
As someone on the outside, he had to stabilize the situation. What if he couldn't get paid in the end?
When Yi Feng arrived at the main hall with Su Bai, it was already filled with people.
After all, the sect assembly was similar to an annual meeting he knew from his past life.
An annual summary of the sect's various aspects.
So at this moment, fifty outer sect elders, seventy-two guardians, and one hundred and eight attendants were all seated.
Except for the seat at the top reserved for Shi Qingwu, which was empty, as well as the highest-ranking Elder Council.
Starting from Great Elder Sun Zimei, they were seated in order.
Seeing Yi Feng arrive with Su Bai, everyone except Sun Zimei and a few elders who rarely involved themselves in worldly affairs trembled and practically jumped out of their seats.
"You're finally here."
Great Elder Sun Zimei's eyes narrowed slightly as he spoke.
Although the competition from the Heavenly Tyrant Sect and the various pressures hadn't caused any real harm to Yi Feng, it didn't stop Sun Zimei's actions.
Under his arrangements during this period, Yi Feng's reputation had already spread throughout the entire Hundred Refinements Sect, even to other sects.
As long as he publicly argued that Yi Feng was unworthy of Shi Qingwu and that their marriage would bring harm to the sect's reputation, it was highly likely to succeed.
Of course, the support of the other elders was crucial.
Although he was the Great Elder, his lone voice alone had limited effect. If the other elders joined in the pressure, it would be a sure thing.
But this was the least of his worries.
Because except for the few neutral elders, the Elder Council was all his people. Even half a month ago, they had already discussed this matter, waiting for this day to come.
Thinking of this, Sun Zimei's lips curled into a smile.
Perfectly executed.
"Everyone."
He immediately stood up, raising his hands and pressing down, and the hall fell silent.
Then Sun Zimei's voice slowly continued, "There is a matter regarding our sect that we cannot ignore and must discuss today."
All eyes turned to Sun Zimei.
After a slight pause, he continued, "That is the engagement between Yi Feng and Sect Master Shi Qingwu…"
"I believe that Yi Feng's strength is far too weak, plus his recent reputation… I believe that despite being childhood friends, he is unworthy of the sect master."
"Furthermore, if he were to truly marry the sect master, what kind of impact would that have on our Hundred Refinements Sect's reputation?"
"Are we saying that our Hundred Refinements Sect has no one? That the leader of an entire sect would marry a weakling?"
"So I hereby solemnly declare my opposition to Yi Feng's engagement with the sect master."
As his words fell, the crowd began to murmur in agreement, many nodding along.
This reaction was exactly as Sun Zimei had anticipated.
Immediately, his lips curved upward.
He had already lit the fire, and it had taken effect. All that was needed now was for the other elders to add fuel to the flames. This matter would be settled.
Indeed, the Second Elder was the first to jump in.
Even earlier than he had expected.
Sun Zimei was very satisfied.
What excellent support!
However…
As expected, the backup didn't materialize. Instead, the Second Elder began berating him.
"Sun Zimei, as the Great Elder of our Hundred Refinements Sect, what kind of nonsense are you spouting?"
"Yi Feng and the sect master are childhood sweethearts, a match made in heaven. Their marriage is destined by the heavens. What kind of hogwash are you spewing from your mouth?"
The Second Elder's face was flushed with indignation as he spoke resolutely.
Sun Zimei was momentarily dumbfounded.
This…
This wasn't how it was supposed to play out!
So the Second Elder, unknown to him, had gone rogue.
Luckily…
His faction wasn't just the Second Elder alone.
Other than the few neutral elders, the others were all his people.
Thus, he quickly shifted his gaze to the Third Elder, signaling him.
But to his surprise, the Third Elder glared back at him.
"What are you signaling for?"
"Is the Second Elder wrong?"
"Yi Feng and Sect Master Shi Qingwu make such a perfect couple. You actually oppose them? Are you blind?"
"To put it bluntly, it's better to tear down a temple than to ruin a marriage. Your actions are disgraceful!"
The Third Elder's face was filled with righteous indignation as he pointed at Sun Zimei and shouted loudly.
Sun Zimei was so angry he was trembling, his face twitching uncontrollably.
He never expected that the Third Elder would also turn against him, just like the Second Elder.
But who would have thought…
Before he could react, the other elders quickly jumped in.
"Great Elder Sun Zimei, I ask you, in front of everyone, opposing this marriage, what exactly is your intention?"
"That's right, come out and tell us, what is your real intention?"
"Could it be that you're dissatisfied with the sect master being the leader and want to use the sect's traditions to bring her down?"
"Sun Zimei, you're ruthless. The sect master has made great contributions to our Hundred Refinements Sect, and here you are, plotting, aiming for the position of sect master!"
"That's right, and if you look at Yi Feng, he alone represented our Hundred Refinements Sect in the recent Great Sect Tournament, putting his all in for our sect. And here you are, still dwelling on such schemes."
"It's a misfortune for our sect."
"A great misfortune for our sect!"
"You… you, you…"
Sun Zimei's eyes widened in disbelief.
He never expected that these people, at such a crucial moment, would all turn against him and begin to denounce him.
"Ugh!"
Finally, unable to hold it in, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
"What are you 'you'ing about?"
The Second Elder spoke again, his tone filled with righteous indignation. "Hmph, three thousand years ago, you were caught peeping on someone bathing. With such despicable actions, I should have seen through you back then."
"You're right, Sun Zimei, relying on his position as Great Elder, hasn't done much good over the years. Any promising disciples were always snapped up by him first. When has it ever been our turn?"
Yes, he even slept with a mythical creature five hundred years ago.
Slept with a monster...
The Fourth Elder stamped his foot, his face filled with despair. "What kind of unspeakable acts are these? He actually did such things…"

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
