Seeing the three men looking at him with expectant expressions, Ye Qingfeng casually pointed to the position of the chief steward of the spiritual material storehouse and said, “I… I’ll just take this position as the chief steward!”
“Absolutely not!”
“Absolutely not!”
“Absolutely not!”
Almost in unison, three voices rang out in unison, startling Ye Qingfeng so much that he nearly jumped out of his skin.
Seeing that Ye Qingfeng had been frightened, the three men looked apologetic.
Wang Pengyuan spoke directly, “The position of chief steward of the spiritual material storehouse is far too low for you. It’s not suitable!”
“Exactly, your status deserves at least the position of a hall leader,” another added.
“Yes…” the third chimed in.
Seeing their sincere expressions, Ye Qingfeng was left speechless. These three were truly not joking around!
Ye Qingfeng calmed himself and said, “I know you’re treating me this way because of my nephew. But… I’m only at the third level of the Ningmai stage. I don’t deserve a high-ranking position. I think the position of chief steward of the spiritual material storehouse is just fine. If you won’t agree, then I won’t take any position in the Dark Soul Hall at all!”
“Don’t say that!” Xu Wenyuan immediately became anxious upon hearing this.
The three exchanged glances, and Xu Wenyuan spoke again, “Alright, we’ll go along with what Uncle Ye prefers. You can be the chief steward of the spiritual material storehouse.”
“But remember, if you do well, we will definitely promote you,” he added.
Ye Qingfeng let out a sigh of relief and nodded.
At that moment, Elder Hong Qing arrived outside the hall and bowed, saying, “The three hall masters, everyone has been gathered. They’re all here!”
“Good,” Wang Pengyuan replied, taking Ye Qingfeng’s arm and leading him outside the hall.
After several turns and twists, they arrived at another grand hall.
As soon as Ye Qingfeng entered, his body nearly buckled, and he almost collapsed to the ground. The hall was filled with over a hundred people, all of whom were powerful figures at the Tian Gang or Yuan Fu stages. This was far beyond what Ye Qingfeng, at the Ningmai stage, could handle.
“Stop showing off! All of you, hide your auras!” Lei Chengtian immediately scolded.
One by one, the elders and hall leaders retracted their imposing presences.
The three men led Ye Qingfeng to a raised platform at the back of the hall.
Wang Pengyuan cleared his throat and announced, “We have gathered you all here today to announce something significant!”
Significant?
The elders and hall leaders looked astonished.
Wang Pengyuan continued earnestly, “We are honored to announce that Mr. Ye Qingfeng will be taking on the role of chief steward of the spiritual material storehouse in our Dark Soul Hall!”
As soon as these words left his mouth, an uproar erupted in the hall.
What on earth?
The three hall masters had summoned everyone from their busy schedules just to announce the appointment of a chief steward?
This… was just too absurd!
Every elder and hall leader present had a status far higher than that of a mere chief steward.
However, some perceptive individuals sensed that there was more to this than met the eye.
“The position of chief steward of the spiritual material storehouse is extremely important!” Xu Wenyuan added at this moment. “Although it might seem like an underutilization of Mr. Ye Qingfeng’s talents, this is a significant matter for our Dark Soul Hall!”
“Everyone, remember this: from today onwards, seeing Chief Steward Ye Qingfeng within the Dark Soul Hall is like seeing the three of us. Do you understand?”
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire hall erupted in chaos.
Wasn’t this… essentially giving Ye Qingfeng the status of a hall master while holding the position of a chief steward?
Who on earth was Ye Qingfeng?
How could he warrant such treatment from the three hall masters?
Lei Chengtian then added, “But remember, do not mention this matter to outsiders. Just keep it clear in your minds!”
The elders and hall leaders began to discuss among themselves.
The words of the three hall masters were as good as ironclad orders!
Although it was inconceivable, there was no choice but to accept it!
After all, this had been personally announced by the three hall masters!
