Chapter 15.1
Chapter 15.1
Ye Chen has never been so aggrieved since he joined Taiwei Sect.
After Ye Chen lost his sword, he begged his master and senior sister successively, hoping that they could get back the sword from Feng Shao for him.
However, the eldest sister first sternly rejected him and even reprimanded him.
Afterward, he begged his third senior sister again.
Third senior sister’s words were not as harsh as eldest senior sister’s, but she also told him not to think about the sword anymore.
Then he went to the master again, but the master only asked him to reflect on his behavior but didn’t say a word about his sword.
The only one who said she was willing to give a try for Ye Chen was the second senior sister. Ye Chen was moved, but he couldn’t help feeling resentful toward the third senior sister, the eldest senior sister, and the master.
Unexpectedly, not long after, the second senior sister told him that she couldn’t get the sword back for him.
Ye Chen didn’t know what went wrong. Wasn’t he the most favored junior brother of the three? Why did his status seem to have dropped so much overnight? I just begged you to help me get my sword back, but each one of them pushed back and forth, completely disregarding the friendship of the same lineage.
Ye Chen couldn’t wait to shout: “This Taiwei Sect, don’t be too small!”Fortunately, reason stopped his impulse.
Since he lost the “Red Dragon Sword,” his master and senior sister didn’t speak for him, and Ye Chen felt extremely depressed, so he simply sneaked down the mountain.
Before joining the sect, Ye Chen was just a little gangster in Liyang City who could find a lot to eat but couldn’t fill his meal.
When he was fighting for food with someone, his fierce behavior won the other party’s admiration, so the two sides turned their fighting into friendship and swore brotherhood in front of the Earth Temple.
And the person who became sworn brothers with him was Man Tousan, who had a leprosy head.
In fact, Ye Chen really looked down on people like Tousan from the bottom of his heart, but at that time he felt that he was too weak, and it was not easy to survive in Liyang City by himself, so he simply joined the Tousan’s gang. It was good to have a care.
After joining the gang, Ye Chen’s son of fortune characteristics gradually came into play.
This small gang, originally struggling to survive, had gradually become a well-known gang of bullies in Liyang City.
But they were very self-aware, knowing who can be messed with and who can’t.
So although they acted arrogantly and domineeringly, they didn’t encounter any trouble.
What they provoked were mainly steamed bun shops, steamed stuffed bun shops, noodle shops, snack shops, taverns, and other small shops that sell food and have no background.
The owners of those small shops had no choice but to compromise to calm things down and not affect their business.
Pay the so-called “protection fee” every month, just for peace.
Of course, protection was definitely not counted on them. In the entire Liyang City, besides Man Tousan’s gang, who else would be idle and mess around with those who run small shops?
As for those big restaurants, Man Tousan and the others dare not mess with them, nor can they afford to mess with them.
This situation lasted for three or four years, until five years ago, Ye Chen encountered the first major turning point in his life.
Taiwei Sect Elder, Du Yuanxi, came to Liyang City because she needed to buy some heavenly and earthly treasures.
While walking on the street, Du Yuanxi noticed Ye Chen passing by.
At that time, Ye Chen and others were fighting with another group of gangsters, and Ye Chen’s fierce and stubborn eyes deeply touched Du Yuanxi.
Du Yuanxi thought at the time, what kind of experience did someone have to have such eyes?
It was because of this inexplicable reason that Du Yuanxi had a whim, stepped forward to help Ye Chen fight off the enemies, and then asked Ye Chen, “Will you worship me as a teacher?”
Ye Chen was taken aback for a moment, and then asked subconsciously, “Then will you give me a steamed bun?”
Hearing the other party’s question, Du Yuanxi couldn’t help but think of the conversation her senior brother had with Feng Shao when the senior brother accepted Feng Shao, so she said, “Yes.”
“Then I will worship you as my teacher!”
No matter how weird, how bloody, and how nonsense this process was, anyway, the final development was that Ye Chen successfully joined Du Yuanxi’s lineage in the sect and became Du Yuanxi’s fourth disciple.
After Feng Shao knew about this, he could only sigh secretly. The luck of the son of fortune is really terrifying!
But Feng Shao didn’t think much about it. At that time, he didn’t know much about the role of luck, and he didn’t know what kind of influence a person with such strong luck would have on the sect. Feng Shao felt that accepting a son of fortune might help the sect grow stronger!
But it turned out that Feng Shao was overthinking.
Ye Chen’s luck seemed to be only useful to himself, and what he gained through his own luck could only be used on himself, or to please his own people. As for the sect, he had no intention to repay, and he accepted the sect’s monthly regular money and pill supply unceremoniously.
This was a son of fortune who was selfish to the extreme, and this quality seems to be common in the protagonists of the fantasy novels Feng Shao read in his previous life.
Losing the “Red Dragon Sword” because of a bet, Ye Chen thought more about why his master and senior sister didn’t help him get the sword back, rather than what mistakes he made in this matter.
Feeling deeply that he was not understood by the world, Ye Chen simply went down the mountain to relax. After going down the mountain, the first place he went was Liyang City, the place where he grew up.
During the five years of being a disciple, Ye Chen traveled down the mountain many times and returned to Liyang City many times.
Every time he returned to Liyang City, Ye Chen would go to find his old friends.
