C6

This young man was around the age of seventeen or eighteen. He was tall and sturdy, like a moving iron tower. Just by standing there, he gave off an imposing pressure.

As for his cultivation base, it was also extremely strong. Even if he absorbed and expended spiritual energy, he would at least have the strength of the 7th level of Qi Refining or above.

His name was Ye Wei and he was the son of the executive elder. He held an extremely high position in the Ye family. Other than the strongest genius Ye Feiyang, he had the most fame, and was also someone who had the opportunity to participate in the Immortal Sect's grand event.

Who would have thought that after being beaten, Ye Yun would actually move against Ye Wei.

"Ye Zhen, I heard that you took their deposit, then went back on your word and even started to harm our family. As the son of the Disciplinary Elder, I need to investigate this matter."

Ye Wei coldly took a step forward, his gaze was as sharp as a blade, locking onto Ye Zhen.

"Even now, you still refuse to kneel and plead guilty?"

Hearing that, Ye Zhen's face turned cold. Facing the other party's gaze, he sneered and said, "Ye Wei, although you are the son of the Disciplinary Elder, you don't have the authority to administer the family law, do you? Furthermore, you only believed one side of Ye Yun's story and you want me to kneel down and plead guilty. This is clearly partial! "

"Prejudice? Hmph, trash like you, staying in the family is just a waste of resources. No matter what, Ye Yun was still the son of an elder, and was of the direct bloodline. If I am not biased towards him, how can I be biased towards you? "

Ye Wei sneered again and again. While he was speaking, he suddenly took a step forward, and a tyrannical pressure came pressing over.

A sharp beam of spirit energy pierced through the air. Ye Zhen only felt a blur in front of him. Just as the green bamboo flame was formed, it was immediately extinguished by the sharp beam.

With a ripping sound, a bloody wound appeared on his shoulder, blood splattering everywhere.

If it wasn't for the fact that Ye Zhen's magical equipment body was stronger than an ordinary person's, this blow would have at least pierced through his shoulder.

"You want fairness? You can't even take one of my attacks, you're not worthy. "

Ye Wei looked at him with contempt and said coldly, "Today, I will just teach you a lesson. Within three days, compensate Ye Yun with five hundred spirit stones, or else hand him over. Otherwise, when the time comes, I will use my family's law to deal with you. "

With that, Ye Wei turned and left. Although Ye Yun was a little unwilling, but he was not Ye Zhen's opponent. He could only glare at him and followed.

"Brother Wei, why don't you just cripple him? We have already accepted the deposit from Young Master Xunhuan, if we go back on our words now, we will definitely suffer Drunken Fragrance Pavilion's wrath. Young master Ximing didn't want money. He only wanted people! What if Ye Zhen obtains the spirit stones? "

Hearing this, Ye Wei looked at him and coldly smiled, "If I were to directly take action, people will inevitably criticize me. This will not be good for me to be in charge of the family's law in the future."

"Don't worry. Within three days, Ye Zhen's only chance to obtain five hundred spirit stones is to go to the Black Evil Mountain Range and hunt demon beasts. Not everyone could return to that place alive. At that time, when he dies, you can send someone to capture that little girl.

Hearing that, Ye Yun suddenly realized something, and said: "Brother Wei is right, no blood blade, high!"

On this side, Ye Zhen naturally did not know what they were planning. He held onto the wound on his shoulder as he watched Ye Wei's departing figure. His eyes flashed with a cold light.

"Ye Wei, you're using family law to suppress me? Very well, let's wait and see! "

After simply bandaging his wounds, Ye Zhen got up, but did not return to his residence. Instead, he went to the mountain behind his clan.

The back mountain of the Ye Family was originally an extinct volcano. Later, it was gradually developed into a natural furnace that was used to forge artifacts.

Unfortunately, the Ye Clan didn't have any outstanding weapons craftsmen in their time, so they couldn't refine any good magical equipment. They could only be used to refine ordinary weapons and low-grade magical tools. They could be sold in the marketplace and were one of the main sources of income for the Ye Clan.

Ye Zhen was naturally not here to refine weapons.

He wanted to make use of the high temperature within the volcano furnace to speed up the refining of the fragmented artifacts, cultivate the [Alchemy] cultivation technique, and increase his strength.

By relying on his own strength, he was able to refine the remnants of magical equipment at a speed that was too slow.

Thus, he had to use external forces.

Moreover, cultivating in this kind of high-temperature environment was extremely beneficial for his body.

At the entrance, he paid the toll of two spirit stones and entered the volcano furnace.

A wave of heat rushed towards him, and the surrounding air seemed to be set alight. Taking in a deep breath, he suddenly felt a burning sensation in his throat, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.

Ordinary people wouldn't be able to withstand this kind of high temperature. Even if it was a cultivator, they would have to use spiritual energy to resist the heat. People that were too weak wouldn't be able to stay for long either.

Not far from the volcano's furnace, Ye Zhen heard a clanging sound. This was the family's workshop, which was producing weapons. Normal people were not allowed to enter this area.

On the right hand side, there was a long path, on both sides of which were independent refining rooms. Some disciples in the clan who liked refining would be able to enter after paying the usage fee, and then use the heat from the volcano to try refining.

Of course, there were also some disciples who practiced fire type techniques that would come here to cultivate and absorb a dense amount of fire spirit energy.

Ye Zhen walked into the passageway and noticed that there was quite a number of people outside of the artifact forging room not far in front of him. They were currently discussing animatedly amongst themselves.

"Ye Ling can be said to be the most talented disciple of the Ye family. Although she is a woman, she can endure more hardships than anyone else. This time, I wonder if she will be able to successfully refine a low-grade magic tool. "

"If I successfully refine it, Ye Ling will definitely be highly valued and nurtured by the family. With her talent, she would probably be able to enter the Myriad Treasures Sect, where she would be able to refine low-grade magic tools at such a young age. In the future, her accomplishments would definitely not be any worse than other geniuses.

"We have to build a good relationship with someone like that. Xuan Artifact does not dare to think of what kind of spiritual weapon, so it should not be difficult to get some high-grade magic tools! "

So there was a disciple trying to refine a low-grade magic tool. No wonder it attracted so much attention.

Ye Zhen didn't pay too much attention and directly passed through the crowd. He found an empty refining room and walked in.

Amongst the crowd, someone discovered Ye Zhen and could not help but sneer, "Isn't that trash Ye Zhen? Even after so many years, his talent was still only at the 3rd level of the Refinement Realm. You actually dared to come into this volcano furnace. You are truly courting death. "

"Leave him alone. It won't be long before he comes out himself, crestfallen. "
