Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Chapter 319: Chaos In The Sect I

When Zhang Fei arrived at the substitute's room, he found Shen Haoran there and handed him a bottle of green liquid. In addition, he also gave him an artifact to disguise his cultivation, as Shen Xueyi had previously guessed. "You must drink this liquid tomorrow morning; it will transform your face into my son's face.

However, the effect is only temporary, and you must leave this sect immediately once the wedding ceremony is over. Do you understand?"

"Yes... yes... I understand, Elder Shen."

"That's good." Shen Haoran then looked around the room using his senses, but unfortunately, he could not detect Zhang Fei's presence in the invisible state, and he immediately sealed the room before leaving.

"Phew." The man exhaled as he wiped the cold sweat on his forehead. "I don't understand why he did such a thing, but the reward he gave me is quite large, and I can take my father for treatment after this wedding ceremony is over."

Hearing that, Zhang Fei immediately used his demon eyes to examine the man's soul, and he nodded in understanding. 'This guy isn't bad, and he was willing to accept Shen Haoran's offer because he was in urgent need of money, so I won't kill him.'

After he made sure that there was no one else present in the surrounding area, Zhang Fei immediately showed himself to the substitute, startling him, especially since they were wearing the same wedding dress. "Who... who are you?"

"All right, you are a man, so don't act like a coward." Zhang Fei said to the substitute. "Moreover, I won't do anything to you, and I will help you get out of this place right now, so you can take your father away from this city right away. You may think that Shen Haoran will let you go, but your thoughts are wrong.

Instead, he will kill you after the wedding is over, so no one will know that he used a substitute for his son."

After hearing that, the substitute raised his eyebrows. He wanted to ask Zhang Fei, but he had already opened the portal out of the Yin-Yang Pavilion. "Trust me, you will die if you continue to stay here, so you should leave now. This portal will connect you to the outside area, so you can return to your home and take your father away from this city as soon as possible."

"But-"

"Leave!" As he activated his demon eyes, Zhang Fei interrupted the substitute. "If you don't leave now, I'll kill you myself."

Hearing Zhang Fei's threat, the substitute entered the portal without thinking twice, and he felt relieved that he had arrived right outside the sect, so he immediately took off the wedding dress and hurriedly left the area.

After he closed the portal, Zhang Fei immediately transformed himself into the substitute and lay on the bed, waiting for the auspicious hour to arrive.

Zhang Fei sighed slightly after the notification appeared, but he immediately opened his map and used the nature awareness ability at the same time, making countless Qi threads appear before his eyes, and he started to check the Qi of the guests one by one.

"This ability, which I acquired through a contract with Zefyr, is truly exceptional, enabling me to discern the strength of each guest's Qi and elements with ease. Anyway, Mei, what do you think will happen if I cut these Qi threads? Do you think it will affect those people?"

[I don't have a definitive answer for that, master. It would be better if you tried cutting one of them, and you can see the results for yourself.]

Zhang Fei nodded slightly before reaching for a green qi thread, which belonged to the patriarch of the Cai Clan, Cai Shangjun. He then used his fire qi to create a dagger before cutting it, but he was disappointed because it immediately reconnected. "Sigh! Unfortunately, it doesn't have any effect."

[Ha ha! If it had any effect, Master, you would be overpowered, and you could easily cripple all living beings in this universe. However, it wouldn't be fun, right? That way, you won't have any opponents, so you'll have a hard time finding opponents and motivation to get stronger.]

"Well, you're right." Zhang Fei replied with a nod of agreement. "Even though there are so many cultivators, beasts, or demons who can kill me easily now, I still don't want my life to be that easy. Moreover, defeating and killing them with my own hands is much more enjoyable, and I also have a goal to continue improving myself."

[Are you really going into seclusion again after this, Master?]

"Yeah." Zhang Fei then opened the system and read his status. "My cultivation is nearly at the 3-Star Soul Realm, but it is still not enough, and I need to reach the Earth Realm as soon as possible.

If I have reached that stage and I use the soul connect to borrow fifty percent of Boitata's power, then it won't be difficult for me to fight against cultivators in the Heaven Realm like Shen Haoran, so I can take care of them without wasting too much time. My demon rank has also almost risen to the Earl rank, and it might increase even faster if I manage to get Ashreth.

Even more so, if I manage to obtain the Amaris Twins, I plan to use them to accelerate my rank increase. Unfortunately, I'm still having trouble upgrading my beast rank, and I'm sure that the amount of beast essence I need to evolve to the six tails will increase several times more than to the five tails, so I need more female beasts to help me."

[You are right, Master. I estimate that you will probably need around eight to ten million beast essences to evolve to six tails. For now, the Shen Ancestors are your best choice, but Shen Xinya is currently the most feasible option, as she has expressed her desire to dual-cultivate with you, and she has peeked at your dual-cultivation several times.

As for Shen Huang, you might still need to put in a lot of effort to win her over, particularly given her complete disinterest in pursuing romantic relationships.]

Zhang Fei nodded in agreement with Mei, and he himself had already planned to target Shen Xinya first. However, he didn't want to make a move on her right away, and he preferred to wait for her to give herself to him.

"Shen Huang, huh? I think I'll visit her later in her cultivation cave, and I'll definitely make her accept me." Zhang Fei then monitored those guests again using his map, and he discovered that Chu Liuxiang had just arrived with his third wife. "Fortunately, the last time I dual-cultivated with Qingyu was a few days ago, and she must have already purged my yang qi from her body.

That way, Yuan Manqiu shouldn't be able to detect it, or she would have reported it to Chu Hong, which would make the situation complicated."

Zhang Fei suddenly received a voice transmission from Liu Hua, who told him that everything was ready, and they could move whenever he wanted. In addition, she also told him that Chu Ying and Chu Qing were already at the Liu Clan, and Liu Qingyu would take them to the Yin-Yang Pavilion.

As for herself, she had no intention of going in, and she was on standby with her other clan members outside the sect. "Now everything is ready, and I just need to wait for the wedding hour to arrive."

Meanwhile, Shen Haoran is holding a meeting with his loyalists, during which he is providing them with final instructions regarding the long-planned plan. "Once their marriage ends, I will immediately capture Shen Yu, and I will use her to force Shen Xueyi to surrender to me, including handing over our clan seal to me.

That way, I will become our next clan leader, and we will start to get rid of her loyalists one by one. Even so, we will retain some of those who are willing to submit to me, and one of the main ones is Zhiyu Fengzhi, especially since we need his medical skills."

All of them nodded in agreement with Shen Haoran, but an elderly man abruptly spoke to him. "Haoran, I somehow feel that we have overlooked some things, and I think today will not be easy for us."

"What do you mean by that, Shen Ye?" Shen Haoran inquired with a raised eyebrow.

Shen Ye asked Shen Ye back. "Do you think Shen Xueyi will just stand by and do nothing? Indeed, we haven't seen her make any moves in recent times, but I'm sure that she has prepared a lot of things to counter our plans without us knowing, so it would be better if we were more careful and not overconfident in our plans."

"Moreover, the situation that Tianyu and Shixi are facing is unusual, and we have still not managed to find the perpetrator who did those things to them." Shen Haoran immediately turned his head toward an old woman named Shen Yuan. "If my guess is correct, the perpetrator must have some connection with Shen Xueyi, but the person is unlikely to be one of her loyalists.

Instead, she used the help of people from outside our sect, especially since none of her loyalists have the ability to deceive our guards, except for Shen Huang and Shen Xinya."

Another old man also spoke to Shen Haoran. "Also, Shen Shixi's condition makes me think that the perpetrator has enslaved her, especially since she became so painful as soon as he wanted to answer us.

However, I don't understand how Shen Xueyi could find someone with such an ability, especially since she never left our sect, and slavery techniques are typically associated with the darkness element, a common trait among people from the Pang Clan.

Shen Haoran fell into thought for a while before asking the old man, "Do you suspect that Shen Xueyi is affiliated with that heretic clan, Shen Ge?"

"No." Shen Ge denied it by shaking his head. "We all know that Shen Xueyi hates the Pang Clan as much as the other cultivators, so I'm sure that she won't form any relationship with them. However, it is important to note that the darkness cultivators are not limited to the people of the Pang Clan. There are numerous other darkness cultivators in our realm.

Therefore, I believe that she may have a connection with one of these individuals, who may have assisted her in enslaving Shen Shixi. Even so, I can't say for sure about this matter, especially since I don't have any evidence to support my suspicion."

"Forget it; we don't have time to find out that person's identity, especially since the wedding is only a few hours away. For now, we just need to focus on successfully executing our plan, or we will be the ones to suffer the worst." Shen Haoran then stood up and walked away, but he stopped in front of the door and said something to one of them.

"Shen Xiu, your abilities are different from ours, so I want you to stay by Shen Yu's side when the wedding begins, and you must not take your eyes off her for even a second.

"Yes, Uncle Haoran." Despite her youthful appearance, Shen Xiu was actually the same age as Shen Yu, and the two were also cousins because their fathers were blood siblings.

Unfortunately, Shen Xiu had a high level of jealousy, and she always felt jealous of Shen Yu because she got more special treatment just because she was Shen Xueyi's daughter, so she decided to join Shen Haoran because he was willing to provide more resources for her.

After that, Shen Xiu immediately followed Shen Haoran to leave the room, as did his other loyalists, and all of them immediately moved to their positions to get ready.

Shen Xiu proceeded directly to Shen Yu's room, but Shen Xueyi and the others prevented her from entering, particularly because they knew which side she had chosen, forcing her to wait in front of his room. 'Tch! You can be arrogant now! However, after you guys fall into Uncle Haoran's hands, the situation will change completely, and I won't have to live in that little bitch's shadow anymore.'

.

.

.

A few hours later, the sun began to shine on the Yin-Yang Pavilion, and Shen Xueyi immediately led Shen Yu to go to the wedding ceremony location, followed by Shen Huang and Shen Xinya behind them.

Shen Haoran himself had gone to the substitute's room and brought him to that place, but unfortunately, he still did not realize that Zhang Fei had replaced that person.

In addition, the artifact that Shen Xueyi gave to Zhang Fei made Shen Haoran not suspect him at all, especially since the artifact hid his true cultivation, and his disguise was absolutely perfect.

While they were on their way to the place, Zhang Fei secretly used the plant generation ability to create something, which he immediately spread out using his wind qi, and it was immediately inhaled by Shen Haoran.

After he completed the daily quest, Zhang Fei [1] immediately left his room and went to another area, where he met up with Feltia, and the two of them got ready to move once the wedding ceremony was over. "Now we just have to wait, and the situation will be so lively once the ceremony is over.
