"Big brother, please spare my life, I know I was wrong, please let me go."
The man begged for mercy.
If it hadn't been for the kid's loose tongue, he wouldn't be trembling with fear, and nobody else would be to blame for teaching him a lesson, hopefully to give him a lasting memory!
"You're pretty lucky to not be hurt, look at your companion, that's the consequence."
Ye Feng pointed at the man who couldn't get up from the ground!
The man saw that his companion's arm was already useless, he was so scared that he almost passed out!
What he absolutely didn't expect was that Ye Feng would suddenly make a move on him, and the speed of his strike was incredibly fast.
It was so unexpected that it nearly cost him his life!
"I know I was wrong, I beg you, please don't lay a hand on me."
"Hiss—!"
No guarantees there, why should I not strike just because you say so, who said I have to listen to you, if you knew this would happen, why were you so arrogant at the beginning, looking down on others!
You brought this on yourself, bear the consequences!
"Ah—no, please!!"
Another man spoke up.
It was the same, the man was brutally beaten by Ye Feng, with five fingers broken and dropping to the ground.
The bloody scene was too gruesome to bear.
The onlookers were so frightened by the scene that they broke out into cold sweats!!
"I'm really sorry, but if anyone dares to offend me, they can only blame their own bad luck."
Ye Feng's demeanor was cold.
"This is... just too pitiful."
The crowd's faces were filled with sympathy.
"Who is he, to be so young yet so formidable, and without using any soul skills, he was able to defeat two men with ease, leaving them completely unprepared to counterattack, this shows he is not simple."
"We'd better not meddle in others' affairs, or we might get burned. Imagine the consequences. So, mind your own mouths, or you might end up like them."
A woman spoke up.
The desire to survive was strong, and nobody wanted to cause trouble!
The friends who were drinking tea with them quickly nodded their heads.
Indeed, they dared not speak up, better to just sit tight and drink tea, and chat about other things!
"Don't you hurry and get out, we don't welcome you here."
A suddenly familiar voice.
Du Gubo!
Old Poison had only gone to stay for two days, and on the third morning, was back at Qing Feng Tea House.
Ye Feng was incredulous at the sight before him!
One of the men, enduring the pain, dragged his companion and stumbled out the door.
All eyes in the room followed them.
The atmosphere turned awkward after what had just happened!
"Heh heh, there was a bit of unpleasantness just now, but please, everyone, don't take it to heart. Today, all the tea is on the house and it's all you can drink as long as everyone's happy."
Du Gubo spoke up directly.
The crowd looked perplexed.
"That's great, I'll have to come to this place more often, the owner of the store is so generous. I've heard they have over a hundred kinds of desserts with great flavors."
A pretty woman spoke up.
"Oh, is that so? Then I must try a dessert."
But Du Gubo said that he would only provide tea for free, not desserts. If you want dessert, you have to pay for it yourself!
Soon, the awkward atmosphere at the scene gradually disappeared!
A slight smile played at the corner of Du Gubo's mouth.
He found that everything he did was worthwhile, and he didn't regret it, nor did he discuss with Ye Feng whether it was okay to do so!
At that moment, a pair of terrifying eyes watched Du Gubo.
Du Gubo noticed that Ye Feng's eyes were off, so he walked over to Ye Feng's table and naturally took a seat beside him.
"Old Peel, didn't you say you were going out of town? How come you ended up at a teahouse?"
His tone made it sound like the tea house belonged to him, Old Poison, and not Ye Feng!
"Old Poison, do you know what you're doing? You decided to waive tea fees for everyone without my permission. Do you think my tea house is a charity? This is going too far, Old Poison!"
Charity!
Du Gubo, with a puzzled face, looked at him, not understanding what was being said at all.
Don't forget, Ye Feng is a visitor from another world; how could Du Gubo know what a 'charity organization' is!
"Old Peel, I'm doing you a favor. The teahouse will only get more and more customers in the future. Just look at what you were doing just now. Why did you suddenly beat someone up and leave them crippled?"
"What's gotten into you? I've never seen you this incensed before."
Du Gubo asked curiously.
In reality, Du Gubo had witnessed everything that had happened; he was aware of it all, but to not affect the business or reputation of the shop, Du Gubo seemed to think there was nothing wrong with his actions!
"If it were you being pointed at and criticized, could you keep your hands to yourself and hold in your anger?!"
"I sure can't. They didn't show any respect and offended me, so if I don't teach them a lesson, they'll think I'm a fool, especially since they insulted me in front of everyone."
They deserve to be beaten to a pulp!
Ye Feng declared angrily.
Seeing the two of them get beaten was immensely satisfying.
"And there's something else I need to inform you about. The Pontiff of Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong, has already chosen the first heir. You didn't know that, did you? Who do you think the new Pontiff will be?"
Du Gubo immediately blurted out.
He mentioned this deliberately to let Ye Feng know.
In fact, Ye Feng had figured it out long ago, thanks to the two idiots foolishly letting it slip within earshot.
"Pfft, I've known for a while now, no need for you, old man, to tell me. Hulena is the first in line to succeed the Pope."
"I've known about it for a long time, no need for you to tell me."
Ye Feng retorted adamantly.
And without hesitation, he made this clear to Du Gubo.
"So you knew all along. I hope I'm not the last one to find out."
Du Gubo gazed at Ye Feng with anticipation.
He scratched his head.
"Another thing, I've also heard that people from Spirit Hall are going after a hundred-thousand-year soul beast."
Du Gubo said.
A hundred-thousand-year soul beast!
Securing one wouldn't be easy!
"It couldn't be Xiaowu from Shrek Academy, could it? She, like her mother, is a soul beast that transformed into a human. Now that the Pope of Spirit Hall wants to find another hundred-thousand-year soul beast, some people might get worried again."
Tang San!
Xiaowu is Tang San's weakness!
"Old Peel, you're not implying Tang San, are you? Last time, Spirit Hall almost got their hands on Xiaowu before Tang Hao suddenly intervened to foil Bibi Dong's attempt, and he successfully saved Xiaowu."
"Bibi Dong was furious, she was so close to obtaining the hundred-thousand-year soul beast only to have her plans thwarted."
Du Gubo spoke.
"You still remember an incident that happened such a long time ago."
"I personally think that for the people of Spirit Hall, acquiring a hundred-thousand-year soul beast is simple. In fact, they won't find it troublesome and will easily get their hands on it, unless they are unlucky enough to run into Tang Hao."
"If they do run into Tang Hao, then I can only wish them good luck!"
Ye Feng said to him.
"Alright, I'm going upstairs to rest for a while. I just hurried back from the forest today. Along the way, I encountered soul beasts of various ages and fought my way through, exhausting my entire afternoon. I'm going to take a short nap upstairs. You've had it tough, Old Poison, haha. We've had a lot of new students recently, so it's going to be busy again."
Ye Feng told Du Gubo.
To say it wasn't busy would be a lie!
