Conquer the game world

Chapter 95 After Becoming Famous
Ye Feng's ninth-place ranking this time caused a much bigger stir than his defeat of Qiu Jian. After all, Qiu Jian was only a disciple ranked around one hundred, and did not attract the attention of some experts in the sect. This time, however, he managed to jump to ninth place in one go, and the sensation it caused was unimaginable.

Ye Feng himself didn't pay too much attention to this matter, but his behavior attracted the attention of some people.

It wasn't just because of Ye Feng's incredible ranking, but also because Ye Feng only had a three-star talent. Such talent had achieved such incredible results in just the first assessment. Faced with such results, people gradually stopped paying attention to Ye Feng's talent.

Regardless of individual talent, results are often the most important. No matter what Ye Feng's talent is, his achievements are already evident. It is no exaggeration to say that such a genius might surpass Yan Feng and become the number one in Yanluo Sect in a short period of time.

Such talents are naturally sought after by various families and forces. Yanluomen originally represented a power in Dongyang Kingdom. In Dongyang Kingdom, Yanluomen, Beidoumen, and Bixiamen jointly controlled the entire Dongyang Kingdom.

The three major powers not only represent the strongest forces in Dongyang Kingdom, but also important positions such as the throne must be selected from among the three major powers.

However, the specific faction that will inherit the throne will be determined by a three-way contest each time. Whoever wins will naturally control the important positions in the country for a period of time.

What does it mean to hold a key position in the country? It means a large amount of resources and wealth. Holding a key position naturally means being able to enjoy more resources.

Although Yanluo Sect is one of the three major powers, it is also composed of various families, and there are various kinds of competition within it. For example, the Yan family, where Yan Sen is located, and the Zhou family, where Zhou Tianyu is located, are both families within Yanluo Sect.

Of course, each family has different rights within the Yanluo Sect, which depends on the strength of the family itself. If it is a weak family, it can probably only be governed by a border city.

However, the power and treatment of a family are not static. If a family produces a genius who, after a period of cultivation, successfully becomes a high-ranking member of the Yanluo Sect, then that family's status within the Yanluo Sect will naturally rise accordingly. In the end, everything depends on strength.

The Yan family, which was already quite powerful within the Yanluo Sect, has now produced two geniuses, Yan Sen and Yan Feng. It can be said that the Yan family's influence within the Yanluo Sect will be enormous for some time to come.

Some families that are slightly weaker, or whose younger generation of disciples lack talent, will try to win over some talented commoner martial artists. Young people like Ye Feng, who do not belong to any side and have such strength, will naturally become the target of various forces to win them over.

Zhou Tianyu's face was gloomy. Just as Ye Feng's latest ranking results came out, his family had already received the news and also learned that Zhou Tianyu had asked Qiu Jian to cause trouble for Ye Feng.

As expected, Zhou Tianyu was given a severe scolding. At the same time, Zhou Tianyu was instructed not to provoke Ye Feng again, which made Zhou Tianyu very unhappy.

However, despite his displeasure, Zhou Tianyu dared not provoke Ye Feng again. After all, Ye Feng's displayed strength instilled fear in Zhou Tianyu, which secretly alarmed him.

"Brother Ye Feng, I have offended you in the past. You won't blame me, will you?" In order to resolve the enmity with Ye Feng, the family could only send Zhou Tianyu to apologize to Ye Feng. After all, the Zhou family was not a very powerful family in Yanluo Sect, and they did not want to provoke Ye Feng.

However, Zhou Tianyu can be considered quite a talent. Although he went to cause trouble for Ye Feng, he still had the audacity to go to Ye Feng's door to apologize. In Zhou Tianyu's eyes, integrity was of little use and he probably didn't even know where it was thrown away.

"It's all in the past, let it go," Ye Feng said generously. In truth, Zhou Tianyu hadn't gained any advantage from him. Since the Zhou family had taken the initiative to apologize, it's only natural to be polite. Besides, he had come to Yanluo Sect with a purpose, and having one more friend was definitely better than having one more enemy.

"Brother Ye Feng is indeed a straightforward person. This is a small token of our family's appreciation for you. Please don't be shy about it." Zhou Tianyu took out a box and handed it to Ye Feng. He continued, "My Zhou family highly values ​​Brother Ye Feng's talent. I wonder if Brother Ye Feng would consider joining the Zhou family? If you join the Zhou family, with the family's resources, I'm sure your cultivation will be much easier in the future."

Zhou Tianyu's main purpose in coming to see Ye Feng was to win him over. As the future heir of the Zhou family, Zhou Tianyu had been too arrogant before, mistakenly believing that Ye Feng had no strength. Now, Zhou Tianyu naturally understood what it meant to prioritize the family.

"Brother Zhou, you're too kind. However, I'm not particularly interested in joining any faction right now," Ye Feng politely declined, but without pausing, he accepted the gift from Zhou Tianyu without batting an eye.

"That's a real pity." Zhou Tianyu feigned regret, but this was already within his expectations. His goal was simply to resolve the previous conflict. He had already investigated Ye Feng; he was a martial artist with no background. However, Ye Feng had already rejected invitations from many powerful forces, so Zhou Tianyu didn't hold out much hope. "If Brother Ye Feng needs anything in the future, please feel free to ask, and I will do my best to help." After these polite words, Zhou Tianyu took his leave.

After Zhou Tianyu left, Ye Feng looked at the thing Zhou Tianyu had given him. It was a kind of pill that could improve a martial artist's physical strength and power. Of course, the effect of this pill was not as good as the Xuan Yuan Pill, and it also could not be taken in large quantities. It was only effective in improving a martial artist's strength at the beginning.

In fact, Ye Feng had received many invitations from families these days, which he naturally declined. However, he also received many gifts from these families, most of which were these kinds of pills. Ye Feng had already used them to improve himself, so taking the same kind of pills now would be of no help to him.

To be honest, the Yanluo Sect strictly forbids recruiting disciples who are still studying within the sect, as this would affect their cultivation to some extent. However, where there's a will, there's a way. If you don't act now, someone else will beat you to it, and you'll be crying.

Most of the invitations Ye Feng has received these days come from disciples who were already studying at the Yanluo Sect. They may be members of a family or have already been recruited by a family.

Lin Dong, who lived with Ye Feng, was also a member of the Lin family of Yanluomen. The Lin family was originally a large family in Yanluomen, but unfortunately, the younger generation of the Lin family became less and less promising. Especially in Lin Dong's generation, this half-baked guy was already a self-reliant young member of the Lin family. With the younger generation of the Lin family being so unpromising, the Lin family naturally gradually faded out of the core family position.

Lin Dong, under instructions from his family, tried to win over Ye Feng. Although Ye Feng and Lin Dong had a good relationship, Ye Feng still refused Lin Dong's offer.

Only then did Ye Feng realize that the Xuan Yuan Pill was already considered a precious pill. Only the higher-ups of the Yan Luo Sect could produce such a pill, and even then, they wouldn't have many. Therefore, Ye Feng did not receive such a valuable gift.

In fact, most of the families that tried to win over Ye Feng couldn't afford such a valuable gift. After all, most of the families that tried to win over Ye Feng were relatively weak families from the Yanluo Sect. These families didn't have much wealth themselves, so they naturally couldn't afford something as valuable as the Xuan Yuan Pill.

"Young Master, we've received word from the family that you shouldn't take action against Ye Feng. We heard you have some conflicts, and I think it's best to try to resolve them." The speaker was an ordinary subordinate of the Yan family, who had always served under Yan Feng and was responsible for liaising with the family.

"Alright, I got it. How's your investigation of Ye Feng going?" Yan Feng replied nonchalantly, clearly not taking the family's affairs to heart.

“Young Master, we haven’t been able to find out where Ye Feng came from. He seems very mysterious. We don’t know where he came from. We’ve never heard of such a genius in Dongyang before.” The subordinate replied, “However, I found out that on the day Ye Feng took the assessment, there seemed to be a woman who went with him. The two seemed to have a very close relationship.”

Upon hearing the news that Ye Feng had a close female friend, Yan Feng immediately felt that this could be used. This woman was probably not very strong, otherwise she wouldn't have missed the Yanluo Sect's assessment, and only Ye Feng would have participated.

"Find out where that woman is now, and once you do, arrest me immediately," Yan Feng ordered.

"Young Master, this isn't a good idea, what about the family..." The subordinate tried to dissuade Yan Feng. Having followed Yan Feng for so many years, he knew exactly what Yan Feng wanted to do, which was nothing more than using this woman to blackmail Ye Feng or something like that.

"Do what I tell you to do," Yan Feng roared, unleashing an aura that was no less imposing than that of a Spirit God Warrior.

This subordinate was no match for such an imposing aura; his legs trembled slightly, and he unconsciously took a few steps back.

"Understood, young master. I'll go investigate right away."

"Brother, what are you planning to do?" Yan Sen asked after his subordinate left.

"Hmph, this Ye Feng is too arrogant. He actually dared to challenge me. I will use this woman to provoke him, make him lose his mind, and make him fight me to the death. Then I will take the opportunity to kill him." Yan Feng said with a fierce look in his eyes and a cold gaze.
