"Ye Bei, what do you mean by this?"
Qingshan Patriarch was completely confused by Ye Bei's actions, his face iron blue as he spoke.
"Cough, Brother Qingshan, what are you talking about?" Ye Bei's face was full of smiles as he put his arm around Qingshan Patriarch's shoulders and said with a grin, "Didn't I just say it was all a misunderstanding? Locking you elders in this great formation was my oversight, I apologize, I apologize."
Thus, Ye Bei politely led Qingshan Patriarch out of the great formation.
"Come on, brothers of the Exploding Heaven Gang, bring out the best wine and meat of the Exploding Heaven Gang to entertain the brothers of Qingshan Gate."
Qingshan Patriarch was still full of doubts about the abnormal Ye Bei.
Just when he thought Ye Bei would play tricks, he found to his surprise that Ye Bei opened the gates of Exploding Heaven Gang wide and invited all of Qingshan Gate inside.
This move shocked Qingshan Patriarch.
To open the gates this wide, even with Ye Bei's high powers, was undoubtedly placing the belly of Exploding Heaven Gang on the blade of Qingshan Gate!
"Uncle-Master, what is Ye Bei up to?" Zhu Yun moved close to Qingshan Patriarch and cautiously asked, "Could he be trying to harm us?"
Qingshan Patriarch furrowed his brows and shook his head. "Although I don't know what he's scheming, we've already been trapped in the great formation, he has no need for such extravagance."
Zhu Yun also nodded.
Since they were already turtles in a jar, there was no need for further action to harm them.
"Then..."
Zhu Yun looked to Qingshan Patriarch.
"After all, Ye Bei is a Martial Emperor, and the lives of so many of our disciples are in his hands. Let's follow him in for now and take it one step at a time!"
Having said that, Qingshan Patriarch and his group of high level masters were also invited into Exploding Heaven Gang.
Subsequently, in the spacious drill grounds of Exploding Heaven Gang, at Ye Bei's command, 100,000 tables of banquet were laid out to entertain Qingshan Gate's disciples.
At the head table, with Ye Bei and Qingshan Patriarch presiding, the top level masters of both sides were seated.
Looking at the table full of mountain treasures and seafood, even with Qingshan Patriarch's state of mind, he couldn't help but be shocked. Many items he had never even seen before.
This one table's worth was priceless!
"Haha, Brother Qingshan, since this is your first time at my Exploding Heaven Gang, you must eat and drink well!" Ye Bei said with a full smile on his face.
As his voice fell, he waved his hand again.
"Servants, bring out my greatest treasure and present it to Brother Qingshan."
Subsequently, a shapely female servant brought over a jade tray, and on the jade tray was an exquisite red box.
"This box?"
Qingshan Patriarch looked it over and was surprised, because just the workmanship of this box was not cheap, seemingly made of rare red sandalwood.
"Brother, this is a fine item!"
Ye Bei picked up the red box and introduced, "Inside is agarwood smoke made by my Exploding Heaven Gang's alchemists using precious materials like agarwood, spiritual leaf and more, called Huazhi Agarwood, or Huazi for short."
"Brother, I'm not exaggerating, only 20 sticks of Huazi are produced each year, guarantee you will feel floaty and ethereal after one puff, equal to over 10 days of arduous cultivation. I usually can't bear to take it out, but since you came today, brother, I'm willing to take it out."
As he spoke, he drew out a stick of Huazi from the redwood box.
Sure enough, as soon as the Huazi emerged, it gave off a rich fragrance, seeming to advance one's cultivation just by smelling it.
"Servants, light the Huazi for Brother Qingshan."
Qingshan Patriarch frowned as he looked at the Huazi in front of him, unable to resist wanting to take a puff, but Ye Bei was acting abnormally, things happen for a reason, so he restrained himself from temptation and asked in a deep voice, "Ye Bei, just tell me what you want to say!"
"Brother, what are you talking about?" Ye Bei deliberately hardened his face and angrily said, "As your junior, am I not allowed to treat you to a meal without ulterior motives?"
Qingshan Patriarch maintained his stern expression.
"Alright, brother, I'll tell the truth. I, Ye Bei, was in the wrong before, I rashly locked you and the others in the great formation without investigating clearly." As he spoke, Ye Bei revealed a flash of anger and said heavily, "I only found out later that those three bastards secretly went out to do bad things behind my back, sigh, it's shameful..."
Seeing Ye Bei's righteous words, Qingshan Patriarch looked surprised.
"Servants, bring those three bastards here!" Ye Bei waved his hand.
Soon, the three Martial Spirits were brought up, their faces bitter. Upon seeing Ye Bei, they cried out, "Gang leader, what is the meaning of this? Didn't you say you would protect us and help us get revenge?"
"Humph, shameless bastards, even now you still speak so impudently!"
As he spoke, Ye Bei waved his palm, and three heads fell to the ground. The three died without ever understanding what had happened.
"Cough cough, brother, these three heads are for you!"
Ye Bei righteously said.
Ye Bei's series of actions satisfied Qingshan Patriarch, and also made him feel somewhat ashamed, turns out he had underestimated this man.
"Brother, you can try the Huazi now, right?"
Having dealt with the three, Ye Bei held up the Huazi box with both hands, smiling as he spoke.
"Alright!"
Qingshan Patriarch nodded, then readily agreed, after all Ye Bei had been so frank, it would be awkward for him to demur further. He accepted the Huazi.
Seeing this, Ye Bei hurried to light it for him.
After one puff of Huazi, permeating his heart and lungs, accompanied by a mouthful of rich smoke exhaled, sure enough, the primordial energy in his body was all mobilized, and his cultivation became more refined.
"Truly a fine item!"
Qingshan Patriarch could not help but praise.
"Haha, since brother likes it, I'll give you this whole box, please accept it." Ye Bei generously said.
"This, how can I accept..."
Qingshan Patriarch awkwardly demurred, but as he spoke, his palm had already unconsciously received the red box into his bosom. Such a fine item, smoking this whole box would save him a year of arduous cultivation!
After that was a time of free-flowing wine.
This liquor was specially brewed for martial cultivators, in less than an hour, Qingshan Patriarch and the others were walking with swaying steps, faces flushed red.
"Servants, escort the brother to rest."
Ye Bei promptly arranged for people.
Soon, several came to support Qingshan Patriarch and the others, walking towards the rooms.
Watching Qingshan Patriarch and the others' departing backs, Ye Bei slowly raised the corners of his mouth.
Him, Ye Bei, being able to attain the level of Martial Emperor at the age of 30, and become the leader of Exploding Heaven Gang, was not purely due to talent.
It relied on this attitude, of knowing to adapt to the circumstances.
Recognizing the times and tides is the mark of a hero!
This was a saying he firmly believed in.
"Gang leader, here is the information, disposition, hobbies, personalities of Lu Qingshan, Zhu Yun, and many other Qingshan Gate elders." At this time, an elder hurried to Ye Bei's side, taking out a document.
Ye Bei looked over the information, raising the corners of his mouth. "Very good, next I don't need to teach you what to do, right?"
"I know."
The elder nodded, but just as he was about to leave, he hesitated. "But gang leader, they are just a small Qingshan Gate, is it necessary for us to treat them so solemnly?"
Hearing this, Ye Bei's expression sank.
He deeply inhaled, then especially gravely said, "It's very necessary..."
"Because they are our Exploding Heaven Gang's..."
"Lifesaving straw!"
