A carefree soldier king in the city

Chapter 307 How Powerful Is He?

Unexpectedly, just as He Guang finished speaking, Chao Bufan casually threw down the wormwood in his hand and said coldly, "Second Elder, listen carefully. I didn't kill him because of the patriarch and you. I only showed mercy because of you. In the future, discipline him more. If he still dares to talk arrogantly in front of me, then this won't be the case."

"Boy, who do you think you are..."

"Snapped!"

He Hengshan roared, but He Guang also slapped him hard, which was like adding insult to injury. His face turned purple in an instant, which stunned He Hengshan. He roared, "You bastard, who gave you the right to speak here? Hurry up and apologize to your master!"

Chao Bufan coldly replied, "No need."

As he spoke, he casually tossed away the cigarette butt in his hand, turned around and walked up to He Yifei, smiling slightly, "Senior Sister Yifei, would you like to accompany me for a walk around?"

Upon hearing this, He Yifei pondered for a moment, then nodded and said "Mm".

"Sitting alone by the pond, I am like a tiger crouching; beneath the green willows, I nurture my spirit. When spring comes, if I do not speak first, which insect dares to utter a sound?"

Chao Bufan made a veiled remark, then left the training ground with He Yifei, laughing and joking.

Upon hearing this, all the elders present were shocked, and their eyes showed even greater awe. As they watched Chao Bufan and He Yifei leave, a strange light flashed in the eyes of the Fifth Elder.

On the cliff edge behind Tulong Mountain, Chao Bufan and He Yifei stood side by side, gazing into the distance.

The boundless blue sky above, like an inverted deep sea, was almost pure blue, stretching endlessly, magnificent and majestic. Below, white clouds drifted by, making it feel like walking in a fairyland, a dreamlike illusion.

He Yifei frowned deeply, as if she was brewing something, looking hesitant to speak. After a moment, she finally spoke, saying, "Junior brother, Senior Brother Hengshan is the Second Elder's grandson. He is used to acting recklessly. If you teach him a lesson like this, he will hold a grudge."

Chao Bufan smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, let him hold a grudge! I've already said that if he dares to act wildly in front of me again, I will make him wish he were dead."

He Yifei suddenly remembered how the Second Elder was so subservient to this junior brother, and her expression immediately became serious. She said, "Young Master Chao, you shouldn't be a disciple of our sect, right?"

Chao Bufan smiled slightly and said, "What do you think?"

"I don't know," He Yifei replied immediately. "Although I can't see through the depth of your cultivation, I know that someone who can easily injure Senior Brother Hengshan and command the respect and admiration of all the elders must be extraordinary."

Chao Bufan laughed and said, "Impressive, impressive, you saw through me. To tell you the truth, I am indeed not a disciple of the He family."

"Then who are you?"

"Do you believe it? Whether it's the head of your He family or the heads of other families among the eight great cultivation families, they all have to respectfully call me Master."

Upon hearing this, He Yifei smiled slightly. Her smile was as beautiful as a flower in full bloom, captivating and stunning. Even Chao Bufan was invigorated. He, who was usually calm and collected, felt somewhat infatuated when he saw her smile.

"It turns out my junior brother is a humorous person."

Chao Bufan smiled, not wanting to dwell on the matter, and changed the subject, saying, "Senior Sister Yifei, have you been staying here the whole time?"

"Not entirely. Our disciples naturally spend most of their time cultivating, but sometimes they also go out to gain experience."

"That must be extremely rare!"

"Well, for cultivators, once their cultivation reaches the second level of the Earth Realm, which is the middle stage of the Earth Realm, they possess the foundation of all methods and can begin to simultaneously cultivate other extraordinary techniques and methods as well as their own magical treasures. As you know, magical treasures and secret artifacts come in all shapes and sizes and vary from person to person. Therefore, once your cultivation reaches this level, you can choose a suitable divine weapon from our sect's armory. If you don't like it, the family will grant you special permission to go down the mountain to train and find materials you like to forge your own weapon."

Chao Bufan nodded and said, "No wonder people outside don't know that there are actually eight great cultivation families on our HX land. Senior Sister Yifei, how many times have you come down the mountain so far?"

"once."

"Only once? Would you like to go down the mountain and explore? I'll take you around and show you the wonderful world outside."

Upon hearing this, He Yifei pursed her lips and said, "Our sect has a rule that no disciple can leave the mountain at will."

“Rules are rules, but people are flexible,” Chao Bufan said, grabbing He Yifei’s hand and continuing, “Come on, I’ll take you down the mountain for a walk and broaden your horizons.”

Suddenly having her hand grasped by a boy of the opposite sex, He Yifei blushed instantly, quickly withdrew her hand, smiled slightly, and said, "No, thank you."

Chao Bufan was clearly taken aback, but then he realized what he meant and said with a forced smile, "I'm sorry, Senior Sister Yifei, I didn't mean anything by it."

He Yifei nodded and said, "Junior brother, it's getting late, let's go back!"

Upon hearing this, Chao Bufan said "Oh," and then added, "Alright then!"

Over here, filled with resentment and anger, He Hengshan followed his grandfather He Guang back home. As soon as they arrived at the door, He Hengshan said, "Grandpa, that damned guy beat me up like this, and you're still taking his side! Do you know how I'm supposed to stand up in the family after this?"

Upon hearing this, He Guang was immediately enraged and said angrily, "You deserved it! Do you know that if he wanted to kill you, he could take your life in the blink of an eye?"

He Hengshan said aggrievedly, "Grandpa, you can't take his side like this! Do you know that if you hadn't stopped him just now, I would have already..."

"He's already dead." He Guang retorted angrily, "Even I, your grandfather, wouldn't dare to act recklessly in front of him, let alone you? I'm warning you, be careful next time, don't provoke him, otherwise, even the head of the family can't save you."

Seeing how serious his grandfather was, and that he didn't seem to be faking it, He Hengshan asked in slight surprise, "Grandpa, isn't he just a newly initiated disciple? Is he really that powerful?"

He Guang retorted, "Nonsense, if you weren't powerful, would you have such a pig-headed appearance?"

He Hengshan thought about the scene when he competed with Chao Bufan just now, and seemed to realize something. He asked, "Grandpa, are you saying that he was pretending to be weak to take advantage of others?"

He Guang also took out a medicine bottle, poured out a pill and handed it to He Hengshan, saying, "Remember, be more careful in the future."

"Thank you, Grandpa! So... Grandpa, how amazing is he?"
