Covering the Sky: I, Wang Teng, truly lack the bearing of an emperor.

Chapter 239 The Black Emperor Gets Beaten

A few days later, the city became more and more crowded. Some people even saw people from the Southern Ridge, and a high-ranking monk from the Western Desert also arrived.

Everyone knew that many things would happen before the Yaochi Grand Ceremony began, and everyone was looking forward to those events.

Black King was looking forward to those things happening, but when he returned home one day, he was bruised and battered, his fur was all messed up, and the dog looked very disheveled.

Upon seeing this, Ye Fan couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"What happened to you? Did someone beat you up?" Ye Fan asked with concern.

"Go away, go away! Someone's targeting me!" Black Emperor said confidently.

He had never been so embarrassed before.

But this time, he was caught off guard and his plan backfired.

"Tell me quickly, what happened? I'm really curious." Ye Fan suppressed a laugh and made himself look full of grief as he asked with concern.

“Someone betrayed me! Do you remember when we went to the banquet together a few days ago? Someone asked about Wang Erya’s identity. At the time, in order to help Wang Erya expand her territory and hide her ancient clan identity, I said that Wang Erya might be related to the Azure Dragon King. But you all heard it at the time, and I didn’t say it explicitly!” Black Emperor said.

"What does this have to do with you getting beaten up?" Ye Fan asked curiously.

In his memory, Black Emperor rarely suffered a loss.

Even when facing a treacherous bastard like Duan De, the Black Emperor never suffered a loss.

But now Black King was beaten black and blue, his fur was disheveled, and he looked so pathetic that his friends couldn't help but laugh when they saw him.

"The Azure Dragon King is here! The things we discussed were things we all agreed on, things we kept to ourselves! But someone betrayed us, and the Azure Dragon King still found out! And the person who betrayed us twisted the facts. I clearly didn't say those things, but they insist that I'm slandering the Azure Dragon King! That Azure Dragon King is a disgrace to his great power! He actually sent people to ambush me, beat me up, and then swore he didn't hit me!"

When this matter was mentioned, Black King was so angry that his teeth itched, and he kept gritting his teeth as he talked about it.

He was not only angry at the informant, but also at the Azure Dragon King!
The last time we met, this guy wasn't this shameless, but I don't know why the Azure Dragon King is so shameless!
They actually sent people to beat him up, while they just stood by and watched!

"Why would the Azure Dragon King do this?" Ye Fan asked, barely suppressing a laugh.

"How would I know! It must be that the informer went too far, saying everything that should and shouldn't have been said. That's why the Azure Dragon King said that I didn't say those exact words, but that I maliciously misled others into guessing! To show fairness, he didn't hit me personally, he just hit me while he watched from the side..."

Black Emperor began to curse.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became!
"Good heavens, to be treated like this by such a powerful figure, you're definitely worthy of being recorded in history." Ye Fan finally couldn't help but laugh out loud.

The Black Emperor had been waiting for this moment for a long time.

Just as Ye Fan was laughing, he opened his mouth and bit down hard.

"It's all your fault!" Black Emperor squeezed out a few words from his throat.

"What does this have to do with me?" Ye Fan felt very innocent.

"If you hadn't offended the Ji family back then, would we be able to apologize to them now? If we hadn't apologized, would we be attracting so much attention? If we hadn't attracted so much attention, why would others have invited us to a banquet? And if they hadn't invited us, none of this would have happened..."

Black King spoke while biting Ye Fan. "I..." Ye Fan's face suddenly darkened, finding it incomprehensible.

This guy. This guy is definitely doing it on purpose, trying to vent his frustrations.

Wang Teng watched the spectacle from the sidelines, knowing he would never reveal that he was the one who reminded the Azure Dragon King of these things.

Not many people knew about the appearance of the Azure Dragon King, because he only appeared once, that was when he fought the Black Emperor in private.

Apart from that one time, the Azure Dragon King did not appear.

Not only him, but many powerful figures who came here in secret also did not show up.

They all remained hidden in the shadows, quietly watching the passage of time, and would not appear until the Yaochi Grand Ceremony truly began.

However, while the older generation did not appear, the younger generation made quite a few appearances.

In particular, some so-called young people from families specializing in Origin Arts made high-profile appearances, hoping to attract as much attention as possible before the Yaochi Grand Ceremony began, in order to create opportunities for themselves.

Especially after they heard that Ye Fan and the Ji family had cleared up their misunderstanding, and that Ye Fan had brought several stones to the Ji family to apologize and cut out valuable alien source and divine source, they immediately listed Ye Fan as their target.

After all, when it comes to gambling on jade, you either slowly showcase your talent and let everyone gradually recognize your uniqueness, or you climb up by stepping on other people's reputations, the latter being the easiest.

As things stand, the most suitable candidate is naturally Ye Fan.

Within a few days, several descendants of the Origin Arts families had come to visit Ye Fan, wanting to challenge him to a duel.

"Are these people crazy? I have no grudge against them, so why are they suddenly challenging me?" Ye Fan looked at the small pile of challenge letters that had already accumulated in front of him and said with some helplessness.

For some time now, he had been trying to keep a low profile and quietly wait until the Yaochi Grand Ceremony began, hoping to broaden his horizons. However, one thing after another, trouble found him.

The young people from the Yuanshu family directly sent a challenge, and the wording was very impolite, which made Ye Fan very dissatisfied.

"We can't spoil them. Since they want to be beaten, let's go beat them up. At worst, we can tame them and keep them as pets!"

Black Emperor was also stirring things up from the sidelines.

He's always been someone who enjoys watching the excitement and isn't afraid of things getting out of hand.

Moreover, now, spurred on by Wang Teng, he is even planning to reveal his true identity at an opportune moment and give others a real shock.

“They want to use you to gain fame, so there’s no need to give them face. You can join the fight,” Wang Teng said.

He also read those challenge letters, which were very impolite, and the words conveyed an attitude that only those with empty reputations dared to fight him.

To be honest, if someone else dared to challenge him with this attitude, no matter how sincerely he begged for mercy afterward, Wang Teng would kill them on the spot.

“Indeed, you should accept the challenge. Your current performance may have been noticed by the people of Yaochi Holy Land. A large part of the Yaochi Grand Ceremony depends on your mastery of Origin Arts. The more outstanding you are now, and the deeper your mastery of Origin Arts, the more likely they will invite you,” the Black Emperor said from the side.

"In that case, I will accept the challenge!"
