The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 779 - 775 Infiltrating the Tianshan Sect
Chapter 779: Chapter 775 Infiltrating the Tianshan Sect
The Tianshan Sect’s sect was built atop a very majestic mountain, with thick stone steps from the base ascending all the way to the sect at the mountain summit.
At the foot of the mountain belonging to the Tianshan Sect, there stood a heavy stele about two meters tall, showing the signs of the years with even a few thin cracks appearing in some areas.
Carved on this towering and hefty stele were the powerful and vigorous characters "Tianshan Sect".
And at this moment, a couple looking quite unsophisticated, their faces smeared with bits of dirt, were standing in front of the stele, laughing foolishly. The man, while chuckling stupidly, said to the woman beside him, "Xia Guihua, are you ready? Once we get to the Tianshan Sect, you better not blow our cover."
The woman, whose appearance was the very picture of a country girl, wrinkled her nose and responded, "Ye Chenfeng, just take care of yourself."
"Xia Guihua, there’s no one named Ye Chenfeng here, only a Ye Erniu." Ye Chenfeng’s face carried a simple and honest expression that would make anyone think he was a naive lad straight out of the mountains.
"Out of the way, you people in front! Is the Tianshan Sect a place for commoners like you?"
As Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining whispered to each other, four men appeared behind them, each carrying a stretcher with bodies that were starting to decay.
Upon seeing the bodies on the stretchers, Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining were slightly taken aback—weren’t those corpses Xiao Huiliang and Li Haojie? When Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining had first arrived at the top-tier forces, Ye Chenfeng had cleverly killed these two foolish Tianshan Sect disciples, and it seemed that only today had the Tianshan Sect discovered the bodies. It appeared their intelligence network was not very impressive.
Although inwardly startled, Ye Chenfeng’s face showed no change as he said doltishly, "Wife, this is the first time I’ve ever seen such a grand mountain! How great it would be to live on this mountain!"
"Husband, I’m afraid of heights. Living on this mountain, I wouldn’t be able to sleep at night," Xia Zining quickly immersed herself in her role as well.
The four Tianshan Sect disciples carrying the stretchers, upon hearing the conversation between Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining, all showed displeasure on their faces, but it was clear they had no intention of stopping, just murmuring to each other in low voices.
"We need to get back to the sect quickly now. Senior Brother Xiao and Senior Brother Li were both experts of the Innate Realm. With the death of two Innate members in our sect at once, the Sect Leader and the Great Elders are definitely not going to be in a good mood."
"They’re just a couple of bumpkins. We don’t need to stoop to their level; it’s purely a waste of time."
...
Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining acted as though they hadn’t heard the conversation of those four Tianshan Sect disciples, and it wasn’t until the disciples disappeared from their line of sight that Ye Chenfeng said, "Let’s go, we’ll also head up the mountain."
About half an hour later.
Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining reached the summit, where they first laid eyes on a vast Training Ground. Disciples of the Tianshan Sect were sparring in pairs, who only glanced swiftly at Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining before promptly looking away.
A middle-aged man in his forties approached them upon seeing the "panting" Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining. He immediately came forward and demanded harshly, "Who are you two? What are you doing at the Tianshan Sect? It is not a place for riffraff to trespass. Do you no longer value your lives? Leave this mountain at once."
The middle-aged man exuded an aura of the Heaven Rank, Lower Grade. Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining, of course, had to put on a full act; both of them were panting heavily, their bodies starting to tremble involuntarily, and their faces were pale. Ye Chenfeng said, shivering, "This, this esteemed one, my wife and I have come from the mountains. I’ve heard that Tianshan Sect is very impressive, so I wanted to seek employment here, to boast about it in my village later on."
The middle-aged man was very pleased with the terrified performance of Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining. To be honest, his strength of Heaven Rank, Lower Grade didn’t really count for much in Tianshan Sect, and the sense of superiority was very comforting to him. He waved his hand dismissively and said, "Go down the mountain! You two want to enter Tianshan Sect? Don’t dream such unrealistic dreams."
Upon hearing this, Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining showed extremely disappointed expressions on their faces. Ye Chenfeng moved closer to the middle-aged man, slightly pulled open his clothing, and inside his chest, they could see five or six silver bars. He said with a chilling voice, "Esteemed one, please make an exception for me! I don’t want to stay in the mountains for the rest of my life. The six silver bars in my chest were found by me while farming."
As he spoke, Ye Chenfeng secretly handed over the six silver bars to the middle-aged man. The man accepted the silver bars nonchalantly and, after confirming their authenticity, casually stuffed them into his chest pocket, saying, "Good, good, you are very promising. I just happen to be in charge of the sundries courtyard in Tianshan Sect, and it seems we’re short on manpower. I can arrange something for you and your wife."
As the saying goes, money talks, and this truth applied everywhere. Although Ye Chenfeng also had gold bars on him, if he had taken them out directly, it might have raised suspicions, so taking out six silver bars was the most appropriate action.
"I thank you, I thank you, I will surely repay you in the future. Indeed, more than once, I’ve dug up silver bars in that piece of land at home. When I go back home next time, I’ll dig some more. Maybe I can offer you more then," said Ye Chenfeng, perfectly embodying the image of a simple and honest mountain lad.
He symbolically put his arm around Xia Zining, who was beside him, and said, "Wife, how can you not thank this noble man?"
"Thank you, noble sir..." Xia Zining said thanks while pinching Ye Chenfeng’s waist with her hand. She felt an immense mix of shame and anger as Ye Chenfeng wrapped his arm around her waist.
Ye Chenfeng felt a pain in his waist but didn’t make a sound. The arm that was symbolically around her tightened firmly instead, and his hand crept downward, sneakily landing on Xia Zining’s buttocks. He kneaded them gently but resolutely, causing Xia Zining to grind her teeth in anger, though she couldn’t erupt in the moment.
Upon hearing that there might be more silver bars in Ye Chenfeng’s land, the middle-aged man’s facial expression became much kinder, thinking to himself, "These two bumpkins, thinking they’ll have a limitless future by entering Tianshan Sect? They’ll only be chopping wood and carrying water. Anyway, it’s easy to arrange some menial tasks for these bumpkins, and I can even earn some extra income on the side. Only a fool would pass up such an opportunity!"
Although he thought this, the middle-aged man said aloud, "You two have good taste. You should know that others can’t enter Tianshan Sect even if they pay. I’m willing to help you two out because you’ve come out from the mountains and seem quite honest and simple. Trust me, the people in your village will definitely be proud of you."
Damn, being proud of being odd-job workers? They really think Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining are idiots?
However, Ye Chenfeng nodded incessantly on the surface and asked, "Thank you, noble one. May I know your esteemed name?"
"You can just call me Manager Huang. If you need anything, you can come to me," said the middle-aged man named Manager Huang, not minding giving a polite reply after taking Ye Chenfeng’s money. freeweɓnøvel~com
"Li Weida, you take these two to get acquainted with the sundries courtyard first, and also arrange a room for them to stay in," Manager Huang instructed a youth behind him.
This youth, who had the look of a weasel, immediately nodded and bowed upon hearing Manager Huang’s command, saying, "Yes, Manager Huang, I’ll make sure to arrange everything for them properly."
Manager Huang nodded, waved his hand, and said, "Alright, don’t stand around here, quickly take them to the sundries courtyard."
Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining, seeing that things were settled, breathed a small sigh of relief internally. Infiltrating Tianshan Sect was even easier than they had anticipated; in fact, they hadn’t encountered any trouble at all. (To be continued.
