Chapter 109: Chapter 109: Curiosity Killed the Cat_1
Yi Wujie’s aged face trembled slightly upon hearing this.
He hadn’t expected this young man to be so straightforward.
Therefore, he decided not to keep anything hidden anymore.
He admitted with a smile, "Divine Doctor Ye, you may understand it that way."
Ye Fei heard this and smiled lightly.
The so-called friends.
Are those who help unconditionally when a family needs it.
In return, is the Yi Family’s unconditional assistance.
This is the promise of a great clan, able to garner greater support for one.
However, such promises also strip away much of one’s freedom.
But Ye Fei never liked to be restrained.
He said with a smile, "Elder Yi has helped me, and I will do my best to assist you."
"Moreover, since we are now friends, there’s no need for so many rules and restrictions. I believe Elder Yi understands what I mean."
Yi Wujie heard this and nodded with a smile.
Ye Fei’s reaction was also what he had expected.
A pearl does not lie in a pool forever.
"Granddaughter, bring out the gift we prepared for Divine Doctor Ye," he said.
Yi Lianbing quickly fetched an ancient-looking small box upon hearing this.
"A small token of our appreciation for Divine Doctor Ye saving my life," Yi Wujie said with a smile.
Ye Fei took it and opened it, inside was a black iron piece the size of a fingernail.
Starry Eyes moving, Ye Fei inspected it carefully.
"Meteorite iron? And it even contains a trace of sword intent?"
Now it was Yi Wujie’s turn to become unsettled: "You can discern the sword intent contained within?"
Recognizing it as meteorite iron wasn’t frightening.
But to directly perceive the ancient sword intent was terrifying!
One must know that even though Yi Wujie had cultivated to the Third Eon, he could only sense the faint sword intent by exerting all his efforts.
Yet Ye Fei felt it so easily?
This was too horrifying!
Ye Fei closed the box, feeling very satisfied in his heart.
"Such a precious gift, I’ll accept it then!"
Ye Fei did not decline and directly accepted the gift.
Yi Wujie and his granddaughter exchanged glances, momentarily at a loss for words.
They had feared that Ye Fei would not recognize the meteorite iron’s uniqueness and had prepared a whole set of explanations.
Yet now, with Ye Fei accepting it outright, they were the ones taken aback.
Ye Fei chatted with Yi Wujie, and time flew by without them noticing.
At that moment, a knock sounded at the door.
By the time they realized, it was already noon.
Su Xingyue poked her head in, widened her eyes, and looked at Ye Fei.
Noticing the time, Ye Fei smiled at Yi Wujie, "I should be going now. See you at the Qianyuan competition!"
Yi Wujie responded with a smile.
The Qianyuan competition, his granddaughter Yi Lianbing was also participating.
He understood that the Qingyun State War Department would not let go of a talent like Ye Fei, they would surely try to recruit him.
It was a pity he had been one step too late.
If he could have grown closer to Ye Fei, that would have been even better.
Ye Fei left with Su Xingyue.
At this moment, Yi Lianbing’s face showed a touch of anxiety.
"Grandfather, why haven’t those people come out yet? How long has it been delayed?" she asked.
Yi Wujie glanced at his phone and a look of anxiety appeared on his face.
He then asked, "Huang Xianglong, isn’t the scripture in his keeping?"
Yi Lianbing became somewhat angry at the mention of that name, "Now his group has disappeared without a trace, completely uncontactable."
"Ah Si is so careless, why entrust such an important thing as the scripture to Huang Xianglong? Now we don’t even know where he’s gone."
Yi Wujie rubbed his forehead in frustration.
"Let’s contact Ah Si first, with her capabilities, acquiring the Heart of Water shouldn’t be an issue."
Yi Lianbing left soon after.
Their purpose for coming to Tianhe.
Was never Ye Fei.
...
"Brother-in-law, how do you even know Kuang Jun?"
In the car, Su Xingyue was extremely curious about her brother-in-law and couldn’t help but ask.
Sharing the stage with Kuang Jun and singing a song together, it was just too lucky.
However, this chance that would make countless girls envious, now seemed insignificant to Su Xingyue.
She was more curious about how Ye Fei had become so powerful.
Meeting her shining eyes, Ye Fei couldn’t help but look away.
He had to admit, the girl did resemble her sister Su Yueru, but with added innocence and naivety.
"Children shouldn’t pry into adults’ affairs," said Ye Fei with a cold face.
