The appearance of this person shocked everyone, including Ye Tian, as it was clear he was a heavyweight figure.
Looking back, it seemed that the Flower Pavilion had never experienced any events that attracted such significant individuals before.
"Kid, why are you still standing there? Do I need to invite you?" the middle-aged man said in a deep voice.
At this moment, Wang Tianxiong reacted. He realized that the mysterious figures who had been secretly protecting the Flower Pavilion had finally shown themselves. He quickly stepped forward, bowing and clasping his hands in a gesture of respect, trying his best to please the man.
"Who are you?" It must be said that Duan Liu had a bit of a fearless attitude typical of youth.
"Hmph." The middle-aged man laughed in anger, "Are you really that foolish or just pretending? This is not a place for you, and I am not someone you can offend. Do you think I am him?"
The middle-aged man pointed disdainfully at Wang Tianxiong, showing no respect whatsoever.
Wang Tianxiong's face turned pale and uncertain. He wanted to explode with anger but dared not do so. Frustrated, he thought to himself that he must have stepped in dog poop today, encountering one embarrassing situation after another.
"This senior, please don't speak too harshly." At this moment, Ye Tian came down from the stairs. Although he knew that even if he and Duan Liu joined forces, they might not be able to contend with this man, he could not stand by while his brother was disrespected.
Duan Liu glanced at Ye Tian and felt reassured. This guy seemed a bit off but regarded Ye Tian as his backbone. Seeing Ye Tian looking indignant made him think that Ye Tian had some confidence and was ready to confront the middle-aged man.
Thus, his already strong momentum surged even more. He lifted his head and puffed out his chest, actually stepping forward.
"Hmm?" The middle-aged man was puzzled. Was his aura not strong enough? Could he not even intimidate a young kid?
Ye Tian quickly grabbed Duan Liu. While he was not afraid of a confrontation, he also could not allow Duan Liu to recklessly provoke unnecessary trouble.
"Don't speak, I'll handle this." Ye Tian blocked Duan Liu and faced the middle-aged man alone.
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man sized him up and said, "Not bad. I've heard of your name, but to show off in front of me with just this? I'm afraid it's not enough."
Ye Tian remained silent, frowning as he assessed the middle-aged man.
"A Cloud Token holder, achieving this at such a young age is quite impressive. Xuanyuan Changfeng from Cloudscroll Pavilion really picked a good seedling," the middle-aged man continued, disregarding Ye Tian's reaction.
At these words, the crowd around them stirred; what kind of person was he to imply that he was on equal footing with Xuanyuan Changfeng?
"It seems you know my master?" Ye Tian retorted.
"Not just acquainted; we actually have quite a history," the middle-aged man sneered at Ye Tian, thinking that revealing his seniority would surely shock this ignorant junior.
However, Ye Tian's response surprised him greatly.
Ye Tian coldly laughed and said, "What history? Were you taught a lesson by my master or are you one of his crazed admirers?"
"What did you say?!" The middle-aged man's calm demeanor darkened instantly.
"What I mean is, based on my understanding of my master, he probably wouldn't have friends like you," Ye Tian stated. This was not meant to provoke; rather, it was a conclusion drawn from careful analysis. His earlier frown and silence were precisely because of this thought.
What kind of person was Xuanyuan Changfeng? He despised superficiality and bullying. And this middle-aged man, as a senior expert, revealed his prowess right away to intimidate juniors, and every word he spoke was a boast about his elder status.
"Kid, do you really think that just because you're a Cloud Token holder I can't do anything to you?" The middle-aged man was somewhat exasperated; he was not someone like Wang Tianxiong. Years ago, he had also held a significant position in Divine Wood County.
"I can move, and I certainly do not dare to deny your strength, but whether I can or cannot, what I want to tell you is not to use the name of a tiger's skin to raise a flag. Our Cloudscroll Pavilion truly cannot afford to lose this person," Ye Tian said fearlessly. The other party was using the name of his master to bolster his own authority, which was simply a petty act.
"Impudent!" The middle-aged man suddenly stepped forward, and the Azure Stone Slab beneath him instantly erupted in black smoke, melting several feet of stone.
"Even if Xuanyuan Changfeng himself were here, he would not speak to me like this!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Tian merely smiled. There was a significant difference between 'would not' and 'could not.' Although there was only one word of difference, it was clear that this guy was not on the same level as Xuanyuan Changfeng.
Moreover, if he truly had such an identity to rely on, would he still be here trying to intimidate Ye Tian? He probably would have already taken action to teach him a lesson.
Just as Ye Tian was about to mock him, a very familiar and lazy laugh suddenly came from outside the door.
That laughter could infuriate someone; it was filled with mockery, disdain, and contempt—emotions all too similar.
"Eh?" Ye Tian was surprised because he recognized that annoying voice very well; it belonged to Qin Fufeng, who had helped him achieve his breakthrough over the past two days.
Whoosh!
Then everyone felt a gust of wind sweep through. When the wind settled, a figure appeared in the arena.
This person was tall and handsome, exuding a majestic presence, yet there was also a lazily carefree demeanor that contradicted this impression.
"This big brother has quite the boastful tone, huh?" Qin Fufeng walked straight up to the middle-aged man and smiled.
Seeing Qin Fufeng, the middle-aged man's brows furrowed deeply. None of the people present, including him, recognized who Qin Fufeng was. The Cloud Pavilion Master rarely showed himself, and besides, Qin Fufeng was an anomaly among the Lords of the Four Great Cloud Halls. Even if he did show up, no one would associate him with the identity of the Cloud Pavilion Master.
Moreover, he was far too young!
"Who are you?" The middle-aged man maintained his composure, but in reality, he already sensed how powerful the newcomer was.
"I am the nephew of Xuanyuan Changfeng that you mentioned. I happened to pass by and heard someone speak my Uncle's name, so I couldn't help but come in to take a look." Qin Fufeng rambled on, causing Ye Tian to roll his eyes.
However, since he was already here, it wouldn't matter if this middle-aged man revealed all the so-called secrets of the Flower Pavilion; it would be of no use at all.
"Son, what are you doing here?" After speaking, Qin Fufeng turned to Ye Tian and blurted out this question.
Ye Tian nearly spat blood. Son... who is your son...
"He is your son?" Duan Liu, who was slow to react and had never interacted with Qin Fufeng, stood there in shock with his mouth agape.
"Brother Two?" Qin Fufeng looked at Duan Liu with an even more astonished expression. "You actually brought my son to a place like this!"
"What?" Duan Liu was completely stunned. He had heard that the Cloud Pavilion Master had a strange personality and liked to talk nonsense, but seeing it in person today was indeed as rumored.
"I say, Uncle Qin, can we stop joking around?" Ye Tian was utterly speechless, but he knew that Qin Fufeng didn't want to reveal his identity, so he called him Uncle Qin.
"Unfilial, unfilial," Qin Fufeng shook his head vigorously.
This back-and-forth left everyone present dumbfounded. What was going on? Who were these strange characters? But strange as they were, everyone could feel that this guy's strength was unfathomable.
"This brother, may I ask..."
"Not a chance." Qin Fufeng directly interrupted the middle-aged man's words.
"But..."
"No buts."
"If you were to..."
"Enough of your nonsense." Qin Fufeng was growing impatient.
"What did you say?!" The middle-aged man had reached his limit; this guy had completely disregarded him since he appeared.
Smack!
However, what was even more surprising was that Qin Fufeng suddenly slapped the middle-aged man across the face without any warning!
"This..." Even the middle-aged man was stunned. Not to mention that he had suddenly been attacked, in terms of strength, he was no ordinary person. His power was well above that of a Martial Unity Expert and was approaching that of a Martial Sovereign. Yet, when Qin Fufeng struck, he didn't even have a chance to react!
"Don't shout at me; I can't stand it when people yell at me. The tone, the spit—it might just spray on my face, and that thought is annoying enough!"
"My Uncle Qin likes cleanliness." Ye Tian chimed in from the side, having deeply understood the essence of Qin Fufeng's mischievous nature.
Everyone was dumbfounded; these three were more astonishing than the last. What kind of strength and background did they possess to be so audacious in a place like the Flower Pavilion?
It took the middle-aged man a full half-tea time to regain his senses. He was furious but dared not make a move.
He could only grit his teeth in anger and say fiercely, "If you have the guts, don't leave. No matter who you are today, you all have to stay here!"
After speaking, he flicked his sleeve, and a small box floated out. When opened, a Message Bug flew out from inside.
"Are you calling for help?" Qin Fufeng asked, his face filled with confusion and doubt.
"Stop talking nonsense!" The middle-aged man was at his wit's end, no longer rationally thinking; he was only focused on how to kill this guy.
"Then hurry up. I'm in a rush to get the freshly steamed buns from Li's Bun Shop," Qin Fufeng said nonchalantly as he walked over and pulled up a chair. However, after thinking for a moment, he switched it for a long bench.
With a thud, the long bench was placed in front of the middle-aged man. Qin Fufeng waved at Ye Tian and Duan Liu, and the three of them casually sat down.
They waited for the reinforcements called by the middle-aged man.
About half an hour later, someone arrived. Before entering, he was quite arrogant, showcasing his strength through sound transmission and announcing his identity, exuding the demeanor of a big shot.
However, upon seeing Qin Fufeng, he trembled all over and disregarded the middle-aged man, flying away as if in panic.
Next, more than ten people came in total, all reacting in the same way. The only difference was that each one ran faster than the last, and their attitude towards the middle-aged man grew increasingly cold.
It was as if they were afraid of offending the person casually sitting on the long bench by getting too close to the middle-aged man...
