The disciples all nodded their heads as they went back to their own courtyard to rest.
Meanwhile, Lian Xinyue smiled at Yang Wei and said, "Well, I hope you will respect me now that we're back in the sect. There are more things that you do not know about me."
Afterward, she left Yang Wei alone as she headed toward her grandfather's place.
Elder Pao Huang glanced around briefly before reporting to Elder Jing, "E-Elder Jing, I shall head back to my courtyard as well then."
"Mhmm, you worked hard enough Elder Pao Huang. You can sleep like a dead pig now," Elder Jing replied swiftly.
Elder Pao Huang almost stumbled down when he heard Elder Jing's teasing tone.
Yang Wei also bid his farewell to Elder Jing and allowed her to rest enough.
"Please make sure to get enough sleep, Elder Jing," Yang Wei said as he walked toward his own courtyard.
"This Yang Wei… does he not know the amount of trouble he will face when he heads back to his own courtyard? To think he even has time to worry about my health" Elder Jing mumbled softly as glanced at Yang Wei's back.
Elder Jing smiled briefly before heading off to meet the sect leader to relay the information and the conflict they had inside the mystery realm.
Sometime later, Yang Wei walked past the fences in his courtyard and halted his movement suddenly.
'Why is my courtyard surrounded by so many outer disciples?' Yang Wei pondered inwardly.
"Hey look, isn't that Yang Wei?" An outer disciple pointed out when he noticed Yang Wei.
"Hmph, this damn bastard finally showed himself." Another outer disciple shouted in anger.
Soon, the rest of the outer disciples started rushing toward Yang Wei with a fiery expression, almost like they wanted to rip his skin apart.
Meanwhile, Yang Wei stood still with a calm expression and asked them politely.
"Who are you people?"
He has never interacted with anyone in the sect much so he has no idea who they were except for the fact that they are outer disciples like him.
"Hmph, I'm Xia Tingfeng, ranked 56th in the outer disciple ranking chart. How dare you disappear for a week without paying your respect?" Xia Tingfeng roared in anger as he introduced himself.
"Xia Tingfeng? Ranked 56th in the ranking chart? What the heck is that?" Yang Wei asked him in an innocent tone.
When the outer disciples heard Yang Wei's tone, they burst out laughing.
"Hahaha, this Yang Wei is truly courting death."
"I know right, in front of Xia Tingfeng, he dared to still act innocently and even humiliate him."
Xia Tingfeng clenched his fist in anger and started to attack Yang Wei.
"A greenhorn like you who doesn't know the rules in the outer court must be taught a lesson," Xia Tingfeng shouted as he smirked when his punch was closing in on Yang Wei.
Yang Wei glanced at Xia Tingfeng's action in confusion. 'What kind of slow punch is he pulling? A demonstration of the weak?'
Yang Wei easily dodged toward the side to avoid Xia Tingfeng's fist.
His swift movement and calm demeanor in doing so shocked the other disciples who were waiting for the show to unravel.
"What the- How did Yang Wei dodged Xia Tingfeng's fist?"
They questioned loudly as their eyesight wasn't profound enough to notice Yang Wei's movement in dodging.
Meanwhile, Xia Tingfeng's face turned red as he believed Yang Wei tried to go against him.
"Hmph, I plan on going easy on you but you dared to humiliate me." Xia Tingfeng snorted as he tried to regain his face that he was going easy.
"Ah, so that's how it is. Tch, that Yang Wei must have been thinking he was strong enough to dodge Xia Tingfeng's fist."
The other disciples nodded their heads in understanding as they watched in anticipation of Xia Tingfeng teaching Yang Wei a lesson.
Yang Wei glanced at them with a calm expression. "I don't even know who you people are yet you all started shouting like a clown in front of my courtyard."
And he continued, "I have no interest in dealing with you clowns since I'm tired and wished to rest."
Pointless fighting for Yang Wei is simply a waste of time as he has no interest in Xia Tingfeng whatsoever.
All he wanted to do is take a deep rest from being mentally exhausted from the mystery realm.
Meanwhile, Xia Tingfeng became enraged at Yang Wei's nonchalant attitude, almost like he was trying to kick some dogs out of his courtyard.
"You have forced my hand," Xia Tingfeng shouted as he started circulating his true qi.
A gust of small started forming around Xia Tingfeng as his aura continued to rise up.
"Xia Tingfeng is serious, and Yang Wei is truly a fool. He doesn't even know how vast the Earth and heaven are."
"Sigh, this Yang Wei must be in closed-door cultivation to not even know who Xia Tingfeng is."
The disciples were only here to try and teach Yang Wei a lesson for being disrespectful and not showing himself at all in the outer disciples gathering.
After all, they had no idea where Yang Wei had gone from the past few weeks.
Xia Tingfeng's aura continued to rise for a few moments before it halted.
"Yang Wei, if you kneel down and apologize to me right now then I can forgive your insolence." Xia Tingfeng then said.
"This is really hilarious… Didn't the sect prevent others from attacking a disciple in their own courtyard?" Yang Wei started laughing as he wondered if Xia Tingfeng hit a screw in his head.
He doesn't even know him yet Xia Tingfeng came into his courtyard and demanded some respect from him.
It was like Xia Tingfeng had nothing to do but to be a watchdog for Yang Wei's courtyard.
Meanwhile, Xia Tingfeng started laughing like crazy when Yang Wei mentioned the sect's rule.
"Listen, Yang Wei, rules only apply to those who are weak and not the strong. Since you don't seem to regret your action then don't blame me." Xia Tingfeng shouted as he kicked the ground softly, launching himself toward Yang Wei.
