Chapter 1287 - 1212: Heavenly Punishment Pill
The Zhang Family’s status in Huaxia was extraordinarily high, and Hua Qingteng himself simply had no way to stop Ye Qingfeng.
"Young man, you can take the Heavenly Punishment Vine from our Zhang Family, but was it necessary to cut off my fifth brother’s arm with such brutality?"
The old man looked at Ye Qingfeng calmly, but there was a faint flicker of anger in his eyes.
"Enough talking. If you don’t hand over the Heavenly Punishment Vine, I have even bloodier methods!" Ye Qingfeng said coldly.
"You!"
Zhang Qifan was immediately infuriated. He was one of the Four Guardians of the Divine Guard, a Peak War General, positioned as the White Tiger, with unparalleled strength, only surpassed by Ge Min.
Now he was being threatened by such a young man. How could he not be angry?
"Alright, the arm can still be reattached. Don’t argue with him anymore. Since he wants the Heavenly Punishment Vine, just give it to him."
At this moment, Ge Min stepped forward and said.
He understood Ye Qingfeng’s character, once he started killing, there was no stopping him. If Zhang Qiong Feng continued to quarrel with Ye Qingfeng, the entire Zhang Family might be at risk.
This time, the Four War Gods of the Divine Guard were mobilized solely to protect the Zhang Family, not to fight with Ye Qingfeng.
"Take him to get the Heavenly Punishment Vine." Zhang Qifan didn’t waste any more words and directly instructed the Zhang Family members.
The other elders of the Zhang Family were shocked. Not only had their eldest brother come, but he also brought along several of the Divine Guard’s War Gods, and now they were actually conceding to this young man.
Could this young man really be that formidable? Even the Four Guardians of the Divine Guard were helpless against him.
In truth, the Zhang Family elders didn’t know that Ge Min and the others weren’t afraid of Ye Qingfeng. They had four Guardians and were confident they could control Ye Qingfeng.
They were only wary of Ye Qingfeng’s Flying Sword.
The Zhang Family elders dared not disobey their eldest brother’s orders, and they immediately led Ye Qingfeng towards an old manor, preparing to hand over the Heavenly Punishment Vine to him.
As they passed by a courtyard, Ye Qingfeng’s footsteps suddenly halted. In the courtyard, there was a massive ancient tree that required several people to encircle it.
Ye Qingfeng looked at the tree, and his eyes momentarily lit up.
Seeing Ye Qingfeng’s gaze, Zhang Qifan of the White Tiger immediately said, "Ye Qingfeng, what are you thinking? You can’t touch this tree. It’s an ancient tree planted by our Zhang Family’s ancestors and our spiritual faith passed down through generations. If you touch it, you will truly become an enemy of the Zhang Family!"
"Heh." Ye Qingfeng let out a light laugh. Could this threat truly intimidate him?
Before his recovery, there were many concerns, but once the Ice Condensing Strange Yin Grass bloomed, Ye Qingfeng no longer cared.
Yesterday, when he sent Shui Yiyi back, he had already noticed the Ice Condensing Strange Yin Grass showing signs of sprouting. With Ye Bufan guarding it, it should be very safe.
"Ye Qingfeng, don’t be too impulsive. This tree is so important to the Zhang Family, you can’t force it. The country has tolerated you many times, but if you fall out with the Zhang Family, I may not be able to hold things back."
At this moment, Ge Min spoke up from the side.
He was the Azure Dragon of the Divine Guard and the most formidable among the four Guardians.
But there were still many formidable experts above him.
He didn’t want to become an enemy of Ye Qingfeng, but if Ye Qingfeng went too far, a battle would be inevitable, which could lead to turmoil in the country.
"Alright, let’s go, take me to get the Heavenly Punishment Vine." Ye Qingfeng chuckled, withdrawing his gaze from the ancient tree.
The Zhang Family members didn’t hesitate any longer and immediately led Ye Qingfeng forward, eager to have him leave this place to avoid him having any designs on the ancient tree.
After entering an old manor, Zhang Qiong Feng personally brought out the Heavenly Punishment Vine. The vine was entirely verdant, with lush leaves, though it was just a small herb now.
"It’s truly the Heavenly Punishment Vine!"
When Ye Qingfeng saw the Heavenly Punishment Vine that Zhang Qiong Feng brought out, he murmured.
"What on earth is this plant used for?"
Zhang Qifan couldn’t help but ask, seeing that Ye Qingfeng seemed to know the plant.
"Even if I told you, you wouldn’t understand. Don’t concern yourselves, just give me the Heavenly Punishment Vine." Ye Qingfeng had no desire to slowly explain to these people and immediately said.
Seeing Ye Qingfeng’s delighted expression, the Zhang Family members realized that this Heavenly Punishment Vine was undoubtedly a treasure, and Ye Qingfeng clearly valued it greatly.
The Zhang Family members felt some regret. This plant seemed exceedingly precious, and giving it to Ye Qingfeng would surely be a loss for the Zhang Family.
"Give it to him!"
Zhang Qifan said calmly.
Although reluctant, Zhang Qiong Feng still handed the Heavenly Punishment Vine to Ye Qingfeng, whose eyes immediately flashed with excitement.
"Ye Qingfeng, we’ve given you the Heavenly Punishment Vine. I hope you have no designs on our Zhang Family’s ancient tree, or I will personally ask our Divine Guard’s mightiest to intervene!"
Zhang Qiong Feng stared coldly at Ye Qingfeng, stating firmly.
"Heh."
Ye Qingfeng was in a very good mood and had no interest in entertaining Zhang Qiong Feng’s threats. He directly summoned his Flying Sword, leaped into the air, and soared into the sky with Sword Flight.
"Big brother, is there no one who can subdue this arrogant fellow?" the Zhang Family’s fourth elder couldn’t help but speak up, as their fifth brother’s arm had been severed by this guy, and yet the Zhang Family had no way to retaliate.
Zhang Qifan gazed at the sky with a solemn expression, "This guy is a madman. Once provoked, he won’t stop until one of you is dead. If you want to provoke him, you must ensure he’s killed in one strike!"
"Then, won’t the country do anything to prevent him from being so reckless?"
There was a slight, cold glimmer in Zhang Beishan’s eyes as he said, "The Ancient Martial World is about to be unveiled, isn’t it? That’s when the real battle will begin..."
Ye Qingfeng soared through the air on his Flying Sword, feeling immensely joyful. The Heavenly Punishment Vine—who would have thought it would be found at the Zhang Family?
The Heavenly Punishment Vine was of great significance. It was an essential ingredient in crafting the Heavenly Punishment Pill.
The Heavenly Punishment Pill had only one effect, which was to ensure that whoever took it would never age, yes, never age.
Although that person’s life would eventually end, even in death, their appearance would remain as it was at the moment of taking the Heavenly Punishment Pill.
With this Heavenly Punishment Vine, he could craft the Heavenly Punishment Pill to ensure that Shui Yiyi would maintain her appearance forever. Although she would still die, she would never age.
This meant that Ye Qingfeng could be together with Shui Yiyi, and even after her death, she would still have Ye Qingfeng accompanying her through life!
Ye Qingfeng couldn’t contain his excitement and was eager to craft the Heavenly Punishment Pill. However, the Heavenly Punishment Vine was a true Spirit Grass, and Ye Qingfeng couldn’t craft it easily; he would need a truly good Alchemy Furnace.
