“Uncle Ye, don’t be shy!”
Wang Pengyuan approached with a cheerful smile, grasping Ye Qingfeng’s hand. “Come, come, come, relax. Let us show you around the Dark Soul Hall.”
“Yes, yes, there’s no need to be nervous. Just think of it as if you were at home,” he added.
Think of it as being at home?
How could that be possible?
Ye Qingfeng scoffed inwardly. The Dark Soul Hall was one of the few major forces within the Qingyun Empire, in no way inferior to the powerful clans like the Qin or Chu families.
Moreover, the enthusiasm displayed by these three hall masters seemed excessive!
Ye Qingfeng looked at Old He Bo with a pleading expression, hoping for some help.
Old He Bo, however, merely smiled faintly, nodding without uttering a word.
Xu Qiuyuan, on the other hand, was completely bewildered, unable to comprehend the situation. What was going on? He had merely intended to arrange a position for Ye Qingfeng, having consulted his father, who had said there was no problem and that the position shouldn’t be too low. That was why he had invited Ye Qingfeng here.
But now, his father and Uncles Wang and Lei were acting far too warmly. It was almost exaggerated!
Was it really necessary to be this enthusiastic just because Ye Wushuang had taught him about formations?
“Old He, what… what’s happening?” Xu Qiuyuan was thoroughly confused.
Old He Bo chuckled and said, “Ask your father later, and you’ll understand.”
With that, the two of them followed the others upstairs.
Wang Pengyuan, Xu Wenyuan, and Lei Chengtian led Ye Qingfeng around the vast main hall of the Dark Soul Hall, showing him every corner with great enthusiasm and patience. Many warriors of the Dark Soul Hall who witnessed this scene were left bewildered. When had the three hall masters ever been so warm and welcoming to a guest? Who was this mysterious visitor? Speculations ran wild among the crowd.
Finally, Wang Pengyuan and the others brought Ye Qingfeng to a grand hall. Xu Wenyuan flicked his finger, and a luminous screen appeared within the hall. At the top of the screen, three names shone brightly:
Wang Pengyuan!
Xu Wenyuan!
Lei Chengtian!
Beneath their names were the titles of the thirty-six elders of the Dark Soul Hall, followed by the one hundred and twelve hall leaders. The screen was filled with hundreds of names, each clearly corresponding to a specific position.
Xu Wenyuan then said politely, “Uncle Ye, choose one?”
Choose one?
Choose what?
Ye Qingfeng was bewildered.
After much deliberation, Wang Pengyuan, Xu Wenyuan, and Lei Chengtian had still not decided on a suitable position for Ye Qingfeng. In the end, they decided to let Ye Qingfeng choose for himself!
Seeing Ye Qingfeng’s confusion, Wang Pengyuan smiled and said, “Uncle Ye, you can choose any position you like—hall master, elder, or hall leader. Once you’ve made your choice, we’ll add it to the list!”
Hall master too?
Ye Qingfeng was dumbfounded.
Xu Qiuyuan, who was following behind, nearly collapsed to the ground. Was Uncle Wang joking? Was he really considering giving Ye Qingfeng the position of a fourth hall master?
Lei Chengtian then laughed heartily and said, “Uncle Ye, just choose whatever you like. If you want to be the fourth hall master, that’s fine too!”
At this, Xu Qiuyuan was completely stunned!
“No, no, no… I’m merely at the third level of the Meridian Condensation realm. How could I possibly be a fourth hall master? Please, don’t joke around with me like this!” Ye Qingfeng waved his hands frantically in refusal.
“Who’s joking?” Wang Pengyuan said with utmost seriousness. “If that’s what you want, the position of fourth hall master is yours. The three of us have the final say in the Dark Soul Hall. Anyone who dares to oppose or gossip behind our backs will be severely punished without mercy!”
Seeing the earnest expressions on the faces of Wang Pengyuan, Xu Wenyuan, and Lei Chengtian, Ye Qingfeng felt like crying out of desperation. What on earth were these three Tian Gang realm warriors trying to do? This… this was really not a joke!
Even if it was because of his nephew Ye Wushuang, who had taught Xu Qiuyuan about formations, there was no need for them to flatter him to this extent!
