Chapter 2557: Self-Inflicted Doom

ern Hui Zhong's eyes glistened with smugness, clearly very satisfied with the shock he had inflicted upon these two."Alright, let's go."She said, taking Ye Bufan's arm and walking toward the door."Whe...Upon seeing Yuan Mu Tong's arrival, Liu Bai Yi's expression changed instantly. He hadn't expected this chief steward to have also come over.

"Greetings, Grand Steward! I am Liu Baiyi, the Sect Master of the Cold Sword Immortal Sect!"

Even though she was the head of a school, it could be seen that even the great steward of the Holy Gate had to be polite and respectful. He immediately stepped forward and bowed respectfully.

Seeing her like this, even those who didn't know Yuan Mutong could guess her identity. They didn't even have the right to speak, and they followed behind her, bowing respectfully.

Besides, people like Fei Hong and Nan Gong He from the neighboring houses also did so, not daring to hesitate in the slightest.

After all, the status and prestige of Xuan Tian Men are there, not allowing anyone to show even a sliver of disrespect.

Yet Yuan Mu Tong's expression was frighteningly grim, his entire being radiating an overwhelming aura.

"How dare you, who allowed you to attack Doctor Ye"

As the chief administrator of Xuan Tian Men, he was undoubtedly a shrewd and perceptive individual.

Before, Your Majesty had said that we should cultivate a good relationship with a talented physician like Ye Bufan. Later, he even bestowed upon him the Xuan Tian Token.

From his gaze, one could naturally tell that he held the young man in high regard.

> Because he was late for a while, he almost got surrounded by the people from the Cold Sword Immortal Sect. How could he not be angry

Liu Baiyi's eyebrows raised, immediately realizing something was wrong.

Although she had some doubts about Ye Bufan's Xuan Tian Ling before, now she has completely dispelled this idea.

It's obvious that this young man is definitely favored by the Xuan Tian Men.

"That's the Head Butler…"

Liu Baiyi put on a humble and flustered expression, his voice hurried as he explained, "It was Hua Ruhai from the Huajian School who said that Ye Yixian's token was stolen. That's why I wanted to investigate."

After all, this concerns the dignity of Xuan Tian Men. It absolutely cannot be careless in any way.

Upon hearing her words, Ye Bufan secretly admired that old fox was an old fox, doing things flawlessly.

In just a few dozen words, he first shifted the blame to Hua Ruhui and then took credit for himself for maintaining the dignity of Xuan Tianmen. It shows how shrewd his tactics are.

In comparison, Hua Ruhai is far inferior. This guy was never good at strategy to begin with, and now he's been thoroughly beaten and left dumbfounded. He's still short-circuiting!

Seeing Liu Baiyi speak up, Jian stood tall with a heart brimming with joy. Having helped Xuan Tian Men achieve such great merit, he was sure the grand manager wouldn't be stingy with his rewards.

He always had a sense of superiority in his heart, believing that his lineage from the Jiuxing sect made him nobler than Ye Bufan.

He himself couldn't even get the Xuan Tian Men token, so how could a mere wandering cultivator possibly have it This thing must have been stolen.

"This boy stole the token from somewhere and pretended to be a guest of Xuan Tianmen. I beg the manager to take care of this..."

"Damn your mother..."

Before the guy could finish his sentence, Yuan Mu punched him hard in the face, sending him flying tens of meters before he crashed into a towering ancient tree.

"Uh…"

Huashuhai's heart was about to collapse. What was going on today Anyone who saw this would slap themselves first!

If this keeps going, I'm going to lose all face. The worst part is I still don't have a clue what's happening.

Yuan Mu Tong looked at the crowd with a cold expression: “This Xuan Tian Ling was given to Ye Yi Xian by my Xuan Tian Sect. Your disrespect towards him is disrespect towards my sacred sect. You really have guts!”

Coming from the steward, no one else had any doubts.

These people all secretly rejoiced in their hearts, luckily they hadn't acted just now, otherwise this time the disaster would have been huge.

At the same time, they all secretly suspected what kind of identity this young man had, and what kind of ability he possessed that could make the Holy Gate value him so much!

Hua Ruhai just got up from the ground, and upon hearing these words, his heart sank to the bottom.

He never expected that Ye Bufan's token was truly a gift from the Xuan Tian Gate. This meant they had offended the holy gate, and the consequences were unimaginable.

At this moment, he felt a chill run down his spine from head to toe. The previous envy and resentment vanished instantly, the only thought in his mind now was how to save his own life.

Faced with Yu Mùtong's anger, Liu Baiyi once again bowed and said, "I really wasn't clear before, I only wanted to maintain the reputation of Xuan Tianmen, and was a little impulsive. I offended Ye Yixian, please punish me, General Manager."

Without you knowing, this time I'll just let it slide.

After Yuan Mu Tong finished speaking, he glared at Hua Ru Hai with a sharp look: "To publicly slander Ye Yixian and spread rumors, do you know your crime"

"I was wrong, I really know I was wrong!"

Hua Ruhai knelt down with a thump, "Grand Overseer, please spare me this time! I'll never do it again!"

"Blind fool, you dare to offend Ye Yixian What use are you to me"

Yuan Mu Tong turned his head to look at Ye Bufan, “Ye Yixian, how do you say we should punish this dog”

Only then did Hua Ru Hai realize that her life was now in the other person's hands.

Compared to his life, he no longer cared about past grudges or face. He hurriedly knelt before Ye Bufan again.

"Ye Yixian, I was wrong. It was my blindness, I looked down upon you. Please, just let me go..."

Ye Bufan glanced at him indifferently, and softly uttered six words: "What you sow is what you reap!"

He's not a saint, and he has no patience for people who keep offending him.

"Doctor Ye, I truly know I was wrong..."

Hua Ru Hai was about to make another plea, but before he could finish his words, Yuan Mu Tong's true energy surged forward in a powerful palm strike.

Only a muffled bang was heard, and the sea of flowers that had just been jumping up and down was instantly beaten into a bloody mist.

"Uh..."

Seeing this scene before them, everyone felt a chill run down their spines. This head butler was truly merciless when he made his move.

As for Huāfēihóng, Nángōnghè, and Fēngwúyǐng, the three of them were bowing their heads, each one extremely nervous.

As for Haihua's death, they wouldn't bat an eyelid. They only cared about not getting caught in the crossfire.

Fortunately, Yuan Mu didn't press further, just letting out a cold snort: "From now on, whoever sees Doctor Ye should show respect. Don't blame me, Yuan, if anyone is disrespectful."

"Alright, head steward, that's it. Let's go into the mountains now."

Ye Bufan waved his hand, bringing an end to the dispute.

Then, led by Liu Baiyi, the group walked towards the gate of Hansjian Xianzong.

Once they were inside the hall, tea and fruits from the Cold Sword Immortal Sect were served.

Yuan Mu Tong said: "Liu Sect Master, this time I came specifically with Ye Yixian. His Dao companion is now in your Han Jian Xian Zong, and this time we are here to take him back."

"Really Is that so"

Liu Yiyi was shocked, her face full of disbelief.

Ye Bufan secretly glanced at her lips, this woman is really a first-rate actress, if she were on Earth, she would definitely be an Oscar-level existence.

Li Baiyi said earnestly: “Grand Steward, which of our disciples has the honor to become Ye Yixian's Dao companion”

Ye Bufan said, “It’s Hanjian Immortal Cold Qingqiu!”

"What, it's actually Qingqiu"

Liu Baiyi once again showed a look of shock, then said with a troubled expression, "Head Steward, this is probably rather difficult!"The burly man became even more confident, stretching out his hand covered in black hair and lunged towards Ye Bufan's chest.With a thud, he grabbed Ye Bufan's collar, the strong muscles on his arms bu...
