Perhaps it was the piercing gaze from Xiao Zheng and Mo Ye, or maybe it was the fear of losing face in front of Liu Yiyi.

The people who had been intimidated by Xiao Zheng suddenly regained their bravado.

"What are you so smug about? You just beat the Ninth Junior Brother. Do you really think you’re invincible in the world?"

"Forget it, a person like him will never understand what it truly means to be invincible."

"Our Senior Brother should be coming back with Master soon, right? Kid, do you dare to spar with our Senior Brother? I bet you won’t even withstand a single move from him before you’re begging on your knees!"

The crowd started jeering again, even more arrogantly than before.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zheng became curious and couldn’t help but ask, "Who is your Senior Brother? Is he very formidable?"

In the information collected by Long Qie, there was almost no record about Liu Wufeng’s disciples.

Therefore, Xiao Zheng did not know what extraordinary qualities this senior disciple of Liu Wufeng possessed.

Upon hearing his question, the crowd became even more arrogant.

"Our Senior Brother is a once-in-a-millennium genius. Even our Master has said that Senior Brother is the most promising person to surpass him in martial arts!"

"Kid, if you face off against our Senior Brother, I guarantee you’ll die a miserable death!" 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Senior Brother is coming back tomorrow. I’m really looking forward to it..."

After they finished speaking, they couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

Xiao Zheng felt speechless, looking at these people as if he were looking at a bunch of idiots.

Liu Yiyi, on the other hand, got a little anxious, hurriedly standing in front of Xiao Zheng and said defiantly, "Stop trying to stir things up here. Even if Senior Brother comes back, I won’t let him harm a hair on Xiao Zheng’s head!"

"Xiao Zheng is my lifesaver; I will absolutely not let anyone hurt him!"

Seeing Liu Yiyi so protective of Xiao Zheng, Liu Wufeng’s disciples were filled with even more jealousy towards Xiao Zheng.

Liu Yiyi seemed somewhat angry, and after glaring at them, she said, "Brother Xiao, Mo Ye, let’s go eat and ignore these people!"

After she finished speaking, she dragged them towards the dining room.

The disciples of Liu Wufeng looked at each other, wanting to follow but ultimately held back.

Once in the dining room, Liu Yiyi’s expression improved slightly.

A servant brought out the prepared food, and Xiao Zheng helped himself to a full bowl of rice without waiting.

While eating, he curiously asked, "Yiyi, who exactly is the Senior Brother they mentioned? Is he really so powerful?"

Hearing this, Mo Ye’s expression turned cautious.

Liu Yiyi nodded and said, "Senior Brother is indeed powerful. My father directly considers him his successor. He’s thirty now and broke through to the Martial Saint Realm a year ago."

Thirty-year-old at the Martial Saint Realm?

That certainly is impressive.

Xiao Zheng nodded and then couldn’t help but laugh.

Hearing his laughter, Liu Yiyi thought he was frightened and quickly said, "Brother Xiao, don’t worry. Even if Senior Brother comes back, I won’t let him harm you."

"With me here, I can definitely protect you!"

Xiao Zheng couldn’t help but laugh and said, "I don’t need you to protect me. If a man needs to hide behind a woman for safety, he isn’t really a man."

"Forget it, let’s not talk about this. We should hurry and eat."

"If this food goes cold, it won’t taste good."

After speaking, he really started enjoying his meal.

Seeing Xiao Zheng eating so happily, Liu Yiyi finally relaxed. After they finished eating, when they returned to the main hall, the group from before had already disappeared.

That was just as well, as Xiao Zheng was not eager to see them.

With such people, ignorance is bliss.

After sitting and resting for a while in the main hall, Liu Yiyi began giving Xiao Zheng a tour of the manor. Xiao Zheng was more than happy about this, as it allowed him to both explore the manor’s layout and conceal his own identity, achieving two goals at once.

That being said, the villa was indeed large.

They spent at least half an hour touring, seeing almost every part of it. Except for some restricted areas accessible only to Liu Wufeng, Xiao Zheng had a good grasp of the layout.

In the villa, over fifty Death Soldiers guarded both overtly and covertly.

Among them, there were five Great Grandmasters, while the other forty-five were elite experts. Such strength and foundation were indeed substantial.

After all, typical families or powerhouses might only have one or two Great Grandmasters at most. In contrast, the Heavenly Evil Demon Sect had five Great Grandmasters just to guard the residence.

The gap was like night and day.

After the tour, the three of them sat in the courtyard chatting. Liu Yiyi was very talkative, and Xiao Zheng was happy to chat with her, while Mo Ye served as the listener.

The atmosphere was lively with the three of them cooperating in this way.

They talked until about ten at night before going their separate ways.

With the help of a servant, Xiao Zheng went to rest in a guest room.

This time, he finally slept until he woke up naturally, as Liu Yiyi didn’t knock on his door again. After washing up, he stepped out of the guest room, planning to take a walk and stretch.

During this time, someone was secretly watching his every move.

Xiao Zheng was sure that if he showed any abnormal behavior, these concealed Death Soldiers would attack him without hesitation. Fortunately, he had no intention of causing trouble, so after his exercise, he went to the dining room to meet Liu Yiyi and Mo Ye.

After breakfast, Liu Yiyi suggested, "Brother Xiao, since the weather is so nice today, why don’t I take you out for a stroll? There are many attractions in Canglong City we didn’t visit yesterday."

"Sure, I don’t see any problem with that," Xiao Zheng replied with a smile.

Hearing this, Liu Yiyi couldn’t help but smile.

The three of them wasted no time and immediately prepared to leave the manor.

However, just as they reached the gate, they were met by a grand procession.

The person leading had a refined demeanor and appeared to be around forty years old.

Xiao Zheng instantly recognized his identity.

The Sect Master of the Heavenly Evil Demon Sect, Liu Wufeng!
