C19 Receive the Gift and Gamble

The night after Master Yun settled down in the Xu family, the Xu family held a big feast to welcome him.

On the main table, Master Yun was sitting at the main seat. The patriarch of the Xu family, Xu Yonghui, was personally accompanying him. A few elders of the Xu family who were of the same generation as Xu Yonghui were also sitting at the main seat. The Great Elder of the Xu family, Xu Tianci, was also qualified to occupy one of the seats.

The father and son of the Xu family had offended Master Yun in the afternoon. Xu Tianci acted as if nothing had happened. They chatted and laughed freely in the main seat, and it was very lively.

Xu Lei was sitting on the seat next to the main table. The few young geniuses of Xu family who had the most potential were all sitting at this table.

This was specially arranged by Xu family to increase their chances of showing their faces in front of Master Yun. If someone was chosen by Master Yun and accepted as his disciple, it would be a great opportunity for them.

Xu Feng wasn't at this table.

Xu Lei sat at the main seat of this table, his mind wandering. From time to time, his eyes would shoot out flames as he looked towards the side of the main table.

Behind Master Yun stood a young man. Besides Master Yun, he was the one who attracted the most attention from all the people of Xu family.

Xu Feng!

As Master Yun's disciple, it was natural for Xu Feng to stand behind his master and serve him at any time.

If Xu Feng could officially become Young Patriarch, then there would be no less than one seat on the main table for him.

"So the rumors are true. Master Yun really has some kind of relationship with the patriarch of Xu family!"

"That's right. The patriarch invited Master Yun as a guest as soon as he came out of seclusion. But I have never heard of Master Yun giving such a big face to anyone."

"Do you all think that Master Yun will become a guest elder of Xu family?"

Many people of Xu family were discussing amongst themselves. It was an exciting event for their family to befriend a Pill Alchemist, and it would benefit everyone!

The Pill Alchemist could be used to refine many Medicine Pill. Some of them couldn't even be bought with money, and could be obtained from the Pill Alchemist.

This was not the topic that everyone was talking about. It was related to a person: Xu Feng!

More than a month ago, Xu Feng, who was still unknown and was only an apprentice alchemist, rapidly rose up in the Xu family at a shocking speed. He even had the qualifications to aim for Young Patriarch Xu!

The patriarch of the Xu family had supported Xu Feng after coming out of seclusion. This had attracted a lot of criticism, especially from the forces of the Great Elder's faction. They did not like Xu Feng very much.

Initially, they thought that this kid would be suppressed quickly, or that he would be defeated by the number one genius of the Xu family after half a month of peace. From then on, he would disappear from the public eye. However, they didn't expect that Xu Feng would cause another uproar in the Xu family!

Xu Feng had actually become Master Yun's disciple!

This was a rare opportunity that was even rarer than becoming Young Patriarch Xu.

If it wasn't for the fact that they had to choose between Young Patriarch Xu and Master Yun, most of them would have chosen to become Master Yun's disciple!

"He actually became Master Yun's disciple. With Master Yun's help, Xu Feng might not lose in the competition half a month later!"

"So what if he loses? Who would dare to kill Master Yun's disciple? Xu Feng will be a dragon among men in the future. "

"Tsk tsk, I never thought that Xu Feng would have such good luck. Did Master Yun come to the Xu family because of him?"

" If Xu Feng can achieve success in the Dao of alchemy in the future, our Xu family will be able to produce a Pill Alchemist. He will certainly bring our Xu family to a new height. From now on, the Xu family will depend on this kid! "

"When you see him again in the future, you must be respectful and courteous..."

Many people were discussing Xu Feng. There were also people who said that Xu Feng was lucky and that it was just a moment of glory.

Many of the younger generation who thought they were much better than Xu Feng were even more unconvinced. In addition, Xu Tianci and his son had added fuel to the fire to spread the public opinion. It was said that the patriarch, Xu Yonghui, had used most of the family's financial resources in order to let Xu Feng become Master Yun's disciple.

Some said that Xu Feng would not be able to last long, and that he would only be in the limelight for a short period of time. When Master Yun finally understood Xu Feng's true nature and temperament, he would sooner or later expel him from the family.

"Have you guys forgotten? The competition between Xu Feng and young master Xu Lei will be in half a month's time! Master Yun's abilities were all in alchemy. In half a month's time, no matter how much Medicine Pill he used to pile up, no matter how much he ate, how much strength can he increase?"

"Fifth level of the Martial Path against a Martial Arts Seventh Layer, and with a strong foundation like young master Xu Lei, Xu Feng has no chance of winning."

"If he loses, what qualifications does he have to become Master Yun's disciple?"

This banquet was filled with a mysterious atmosphere, and it wasn't peaceful at all.

Master Yun didn't like the lively atmosphere. Initially, he didn't want to attend this banquet, but after hearing Xu Yonghui's words, he reluctantly agreed.

He was supporting his disciple and making him appear in front of everyone in the family. Xu Yonghui was trying to build momentum for Xu Feng.

Xu Feng had almost no foundation in the family. He couldn't help too much with the family head's power. He wanted to increase the understanding of Xu Feng in the family, and also pave the way for Xu Feng to control the power of Xu family in the future.

After eating and drinking to their heart's content, Master Yun got up and prepared to leave.

At this moment, Xu Tianci suddenly asked him to stay.

"Senior Master Yun, I have a presumptuous request. Can you consider it?"

Master Yun had a respectable status, but his age was about the same as Xu Tianci, and his cultivation was at the peak of the ninth rank.

In terms of seniority, he should be the same as the second generation of the Xu family.

However, the status of the Pill Alchemist had raised him by one rank, and he was on par with the patriarch of the Xu family. Xu Tianci was only half a rank lower than Master Yun.

Master Yun looked at Xu Tianci, but there wasn't the slightest ripple in his eyes.

Xu Tianci called Xu Lei over. Xu Lei had already received orders from his father. He knew what would happen next, so he quickly walked over.

This was also the reason why he was so obedient and kept silent.

"Tianci, what are you going to do? ! You are not allowed to act recklessly in front of Master Yun! "

Xu Yonghui had already known what Xu Tianci and his son had done in front of Master Yun in the afternoon. He had also found Xu Yonghui to scold him before the banquet.

However, Xu Yonghui did not take his words seriously. Xu Yonghui was also helpless.

No matter what, Xu Tianci was his biological son. He no longer had authority, and he could not threaten him with force.

"Father, for the sake of the family, as the patriarch of Xu family, you have to be fair and just in handling matters."

Xu Tianci's words had received the approval of many elders and elders, causing Xu Yonghui to be at a loss for words.

"What do you have to say?" Master Yun asked as he helped Xu Yonghui out of his predicament.

Xu Tianci pulled Xu Lei over and looked at Xu Feng. "Master Yun, please accept my son, Xu Lei, as your disciple. This is a small token of my appreciation, please accept it."

As Xu Yonghui spoke, he took out a storage bag from his pocket and handed it to Master Yun with both hands.

"There are several second-grade spirit medicines in the bag, two third-grade loquat trees, three third-grade Su Rong fruits, ten drops of third-grade Essence Cultivating Spirit Liquid! Master Yun's arrival has shown his heart. "

As soon as the words left his mouth, the entire scene fell silent! Xu Yonghui's face turned ashen, his body trembled, and he was extremely angry.

In terms of value, the herbs that Xu Tianci had taken out were more precious than the ones he had given Master Yun. It was just that they were suitable for Master Yun, and Master Yun didn't need much of them.

Xu Yonghui had gone into seclusion to heal his injuries, and he wasn't in the Death Gate. He would either come out of seclusion or search for herbs and Medicine Pill to treat his injuries.

The Essence Cultivating Spirit Liquid was a rare grade three spirit herb, but it happened to be produced in the Celestial Wind City. It was a property of the Xu family. The thousand year old stone milk in the depths of the earth absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It could only produce one drop of the Essence Cultivating Spirit Liquid per year.

This Essence Cultivating Spirit Liquid had a miraculous effect on treating a martial artist's injuries.

A year ago, Xu Yonghui had searched all the treasure vaults of the Xu family and found that this spirit medicine had been used up. He found Xu Tianci and had him take out some for him to treat his injuries.

At that time, Xu Tianci rejected it. The earth vein that produced the Essence Cultivating Spirit Liquid had already dried up, and the only remaining stock had already been used up.

He was a wolf with wild ambitions! He didn't even want to take out a drop or two from his biological father to treat his injuries, and now he was actually willing to give it to someone else.

For the sake of his son, Xu Lei, Xu Tianci treated the Xu family's family collection as his private property.

Xu Yonghui held back his anger and didn't expose it to the public. He had lost the face of the Xu family.

Master Yun remained indifferent. He put on a stern face and was about to refuse when Xu Feng walked out from behind him.

"Great Elder, is this a gift for Master Yun? Isn't it too heavy?" Xu Feng looked at Xu Tianci with a smile that was not a smile.

"As long as Master Yun is satisfied, I will do my best. It's just a token of my appreciation!"

Xu Tianci looked at Xu Feng coldly and showed disdain on his face.

"Master, since this is a 'gift' from the Great Elder, you can accept it." Xu Feng suddenly said to Master Yun.

Master Yun was slightly surprised. He looked into Xu Feng's eyes and immediately understood what Xu Feng was thinking.

"Alright, thank you, Elder Xu." Master Yun took the storage bag and handed it over to Xu Feng.

Xu Tianci's eyes twitched, and the wild joy in his heart was instantly suppressed.

"Master Yun, if that's the case, Lei Er will be counting on you from now on. If I can follow your path of alchemy and achieve success, the entire Xu family will be endlessly grateful."

Xu Lei was about to bow down when Master Yun waved his hand to stop him, "When did I say that I want to take him as my disciple?"

Xu Tianci's entire body was trembling. When Master Yun casually handed the storage bag to Xu Feng, he had an ominous premonition.

"Master Yun, you actually took the gift. I'm afraid that by doing this..."

Xu Feng took over Xu Tianci's words, "Great Elder, you just said that this is a gift for my master. This gift can't be compared to being my master's disciple!"

Xu Feng urged Master Yun to accept the gift and said to Xu Tianci. He had to take the initiative to come out at this moment. Otherwise, it would be a little embarrassing to have Master Yun argue with Xu Tianci personally.

"Master Yun, what you are doing is not right!" Xu Lei was immediately dissatisfied. His father was not as shrewd as him.

"Shut up! What is wrong with talking to Master Yun like this?" When he had the 'reason', Xu Yonghui's status as the family head had some authority.

"Great Elder, you haven't said anything yet. Can this gift be compared to being a disciple?" Xu Feng didn't bother with him, and he didn't want to let him go, so he interrogated Xu Tianci.

Xu Tianci gritted his teeth, "It's my fault. A gift is a gift. As for being a disciple, if Master Yun doesn't agree, that's fine!"

After being rejected repeatedly by Master Yun, Xu Tianci realized that he could not do it.

He had underestimated the relationship between Xu Feng and Master Yun. Although they had just become master and disciple, Xu Feng could actually make Master Yun do this for him. He did not hesitate to lose face and take away those spirit medicines.

He had suffered a double loss!

"Father, Patriarch, I refuse to accept this! Why does this trash, Xu Feng, have to acknowledge Master Yun as his master, but not me? " Xu Feng exploded.

Just as Xu Yonghui was about to speak, Master Yun opened his mouth. Without any emotions or joy, he said, "Because you are not qualified."

"Does that mean he is qualified? He is just a trash, a pitiful person who has no one to take care of in his life!"

Master Yun's expression changed, and Xu Yonghui flew into a rage!

Xu Lei's words had touched Xu Yonghui's bottom line.

Before Xu Yonghui could explode with anger, Xu Tianci grabbed Xu Lei's neck and slapped him several times.

Xu Lei was still wailing and cursing. He said that Master Yun was unfair and that the family head was biased towards him.

"I'm sorry for making Master Yun laugh. Xu Feng, accompany Master Yun to the backyard to rest. " Xu Yonghui sighed and said.

Xu Feng stood there without moving. Xu Lei's words had provoked the anger and hatred that had accumulated in his heart for ten years!

"Xu Lei, you will know who the real trash is in half a month's time! I, Xu Feng, swear that I will defeat you in half a month! If I can't even defeat you, then I am not worthy of being your son. I have wasted ten years of your humiliation on me!"

Xu Feng declared war on Xu Lei once again. This time, it was especially intense. Not only was it for Young Patriarch's position, it was also to vent his anger!

"Alright! Xu Feng, if you have the guts, how about we make a bet? If you lose, you can get out of the Xu family and cut off your master-disciple relationship with Master Yun, because you are not worthy!" Xu Lei said excitedly.

Xu Lei's words had aroused Xu Feng's killing intent!

"If you lose, what will you do?" Xu Feng narrowed his eyes and looked at Xu Lei.
