Chapter 730 - 828: The Taichu Sect’s Upheaval
Just like that, after seventeen days, Ye Tianfan finally saw the familiar mountains, the shadows of the nine great peaks of the Taichu Sect. Seeing this, Ye Tianfan quickened his pace and flew towards the Taichu Sect.
However, just as Ye Tianfan was about to reach the Taichu Sect, suddenly several people flew in from all around. They surrounded Ye Tianfan, pointing their magical treasures at him.
Fortunately, those who surrounded Ye Tianfan stayed calm. They hadn't attacked Ye Tianfan upon seeing him but instead asked, "Who are you? State your name!"
Ye Tianfan was startled by these people at first. It must be known that the people of the Taichu Sect all recognized Ye Tianfan. These people clearly did not belong to the Taichu Sect.
It seems it was just as those people had said before, there were indeed several other sects residing in the Taichu Sect at this time.
So Ye Tianfan spoke up, "I am a disciple of the Taichu Sect's Taifeng Peak, Tianfan!"
"Taichu Sect?" Those surrounding Ye Tianfan asked with some doubt, "The Taichu Sect has been secluded for over half a year. Why are you outside now? Explain yourself!"
Ye Tianfan didn't want to be unable to enter his home when he got there, plus the people surrounding him were still pointing their magical treasures at him, ready to attack as soon as the questioner gave the order.
And Ye Tianfan was also troubled by his master's situation, Tian Chu Zhenren. Actually, as Ye Tianfan was about to reach the Taichu Sect, he thought of his master, becoming more and more troubled as he got closer. Now these people were pointing magical treasures at him; although he understood it was their duty, Ye Tianfan still felt quite unhappy.
So, Ye Tianfan said coldly, "Why should I explain to you why I'm outside? If you don't believe I'm a disciple of the Taichu Sect's Taifeng Peak, then just call out a senior brother from Taichu Sect to recognize me, wouldn't that solve everything?"
"You guy, what kind of attitude is that, are you looking to die?" Before the person who questioned him could speak, someone nearby couldn't help but curse. Though they were guarding this place, they were also the first line of defense for the Taichu Sect, an extremely important task. Because of the importance of their duty, the disciples inside the sect were always respectful to them, and in every organized attack, they were at the forefront. So they felt that being respected was a matter of course, especially since they had earned that respect with blood and tears.
Since becoming the first line of defense at Taichu Peak, they had never been treated with such an attitude by someone like Ye Tianfan, which made that person start cursing angrily.
Moreover, the person who initially asked the question tried to stop this, but could not. Because until they confirmed Ye Tianfan's true identity, they wouldn't act recklessly. If he really was a disciple of the Taichu Sect, it would be embarrassing!
Everyone knew the reasoning behind this, but some people, blinded by flattery, forgot who they were. They felt entitled to respect because they had shed blood for the world and could not be slighted in any way.
Ye Tianfan looked up directly at this person and then channeled spiritual power throughout his body.
In an instant, everyone surrounding Ye Tianfan felt as though their bodies were being pressed down by a mountain, unable to move!
"You... you're asking for death!" The person who had been shouting earlier spoke slowly, as his body was enveloped in spiritual power, crushed as if by a great mountain. He had difficulty speaking, managing only to say in broken words, "Do you... know... where this is? This is the Taichu Sect's mountain gate. As soon as I give the order, thousands of disciples from the rear will come and fight you to the death!"
"Fight to the death?" Ye Tianfan sneered, "Still so full of yourself, scions should not carry out duties requiring interaction!"
After saying this, Ye Tianfan unleashed a burst of spiritual power, knocking the shouting person unconscious.
After knocking this person unconscious, Ye Tianfan retracted his spiritual power.
The others hurriedly caught the unconscious person to prevent him from falling and dying from the impact.
Though they also disliked the unconscious person since he had become increasingly arrogant and disrespectful towards them, they were a unit. When someone was knocked out by an outsider, it was no longer just their internal conflict; they needed to face the enemy together!
At this point, everyone aimed their magical treasures at Ye Tianfan's vital points, ready to attack at any moment!
Ye Tianfan saw everyone raising their magical treasures and squinted his eyes. He was ready to summon the Xuanhuang Pagoda, to teach them a lesson, of course, provided they attacked first.
"Stop! Everyone, stop!" Just as both sides were about to clash, Ye Tianfan suddenly heard an urgent shout, and the voice sounded quite familiar. Ye Tianfan looked in the direction of the voice and saw Bai Feng flying toward him, gesturing frantically.
When Ye Tianfan saw Bai Feng, he stopped acting and remained in place. Those surrounding him saw Bai Feng from the Taichu Sect coming out, shouting for them to stop, so they did.
They weren't foolish. In this situation, Ye Tianfan surely had to be a disciple of the Taichu Sect. Even if he wasn't, he knew Bai Feng, otherwise, Bai Feng wouldn't have been rushing over so anxiously!
"Why were you fighting? He is a disciple of our Taifeng Peak at the Taichu Sect. If you had made a move, it would have been awkward for you all," Bai Feng said to those surrounding Ye Tianfan once he reached his side!
After Bai Feng finished speaking, he pulled Ye Tianfan along and told the people surrounding them, "This is our Taichu Sect disciple. I'll take him back now; you don't need to verify. Any problems, blame me!"
Bai Feng finished speaking and took Ye Tianfan toward Taichu Peak, saying as they walked, "Now the other eight peaks of the Taichu Sect have been given to other sects to reside. Our Taichu Sect people live on Taichu Peak. If you need anything from Taifeng Peak, I'll go with you to get it." Bai Feng told Ye Tianfan, then asked happily, "Where have you been over the past year? Why are you only coming back now?"
Hearing Bai Feng's words, Ye Tianfan gave a bitter smile. It wasn't that he didn't want to come back; he had been finding his way back all along, but only managed to return now!
