The Supreme Lord Donghuang-Chapter 320 - Chen Dandan is my old friend

“Perhaps they were referring to someone else.”

Zhou Donghuang shook his head and got ready to leave.

However, another voice rang out once again, causing him to freeze.

“Hong Yunfei, I heard rumors that you are from the Yunfeng prefecture, which was the most elite and sacred group that existed when our young master of the Donghuang Sect was still alive… Those who are a part of the group are already so talented, but you aren’t of the same standard at all.

“Previously, during the sub-sect trials, you managed to get first. Surely this wasn’t because you cheated your way through?”

This voice was mocking and scornful.

“This Hong Yunfei is also from the Yunfeng prefecture?”

Zhou Donghaung froze and flew forward, appearing at the center of the Donghuang Peak, where a performing arts stage was erected.

After glancing ahead, he could see a ragged young man sitting on the floor breathless. He looked defeated. This defeated-looking teenager was glaring up at an arrogant young man with an unsatisfied gaze. “Fang Lunjie, we are of the same age. I’ve only entered the sect for three months, and yet you’ve been in this sect for three years! Is it that surprising that you’ve managed to beat me?

“Three months. Give me three months. In three months, I, Hong Yunfei, will definitely defeat you!”

Hong Yunfei was the beloved young master of the Hong family, which was the elite family of the Yunfeng prefecture and one that Chen Dandan had associated with in the past.

Previously, his father, Master Hong, had found out about Chen Dandan’s identity and asked for Hong Yunfei to chase Chen Dandan. Afterwards, he had successfully visited the Valley of the Medicine Masters, where he had met Chen Dandan’s biological father, the second elder of the Valley of the Medicine Masters.

However, afterwards, Chen Dandan felt that he was not fit to marry her and had sent him out of the Valley of the Medicine Masters.

Afterwards, Hong Yunfei had an epiphany through this incident that relying on others was not a good way to live life, and that he should depend on himself. After he had returned to the Hong family in the Yunfeng prefecture, he fully committed himself to training. He wanted to embarrass Chen Dandan and make her regret her decision in the future.

A while later, he heard that Chen Dandan had entered one of the strongest sects in the Ziyun planet, the Xuanyin Sect, and was being cared for by Golden Essence adepts. He felt despair in his heart and felt that he had no hope left in his life. Because of that, his training stage had remained stagnant for a long time.

Later, Zhou Donghuang had risen up and killed Chen Dandan’s mentor, who was already a Dharma adept. He also killed Chen Dandan personally and established the Donghuang Sect, allowing the previous Valley of the Medicine Masters to become the sub-sect of the Donghuang Sect. Hong Yunfei had then abandoned his desolate state and regained his fighting spirit.

After entering the Donghuang Sub-Sect, he had then entered the main Donghuang Sect.

Half a year ago, he had gotten the top results in the Donghuang Sub-Sect’s examinations and received a nomination to enter the main Donghuang Sect. Three months prior to this, he had entered the Donghuang Sect and thus achieved his main aspiration.

“Do you really think three months is enough?”

The young man standing before Hong Yunfei wore an impassive look, and he glanced casually at the other Donghuang Sect disciples who were standing around as onlookers. “Did you all hear that? Hong Yunfei declared that he will be able to defeat me within three months.

“Perhaps, he does not know that… As long as I utter the words, my father can confiscate the spirit stone veins that he would claim each month, leaving him with no spirit stone veins to train with.”

As he spoke, the young man had on a cold look.

As Hong Yunfei heard this words, his face changed greatly.

He naturally knew that Fang Lunjie was not joking around.

Fang Lunjie’s father was one of the outer elders of the sect who was in charge of the internal affairs of the sect’s disciples. As long as Fang Lunjie spoke up, he could use all sorts of reasons to cut off his supply to spirit stone veins, causing him to lack spirit stone veins for training. If that happened, his training progress would slow down greatly.

He had not expected Fang Lunjie to be so cruel just because of a small duel.

“Senior Fang!”

The skinny youth who had gone forward to help Hong Yunfei heard Fang Lunjie’s words and his face became as pale as a sheet. Instantly, he let go of Hong Yunfei and took two to three steps before Fang Lunjie and knelt down. “Senior Fang, let me kneel to you. I’ll even lick your shoe right now!

“This matter does not concern Hong Yunfei, please do not cut off his spirit stone veins supply. Please.”

As the skinny youth spoke, he lowered his head and prepared to lick Fang Lunjie’s right shoe.

One could see that the shoe had a faint grey mark on it.

“Xiaoyong!” Hong Yunfei barked. “Do not do this and disrespect yourself! If the sect does not care for our welfare, we can return to the sub-sect and never return to the main sect!”

“Senior Yunfei.”

The skinny youth turned to glance at Hong Yunfei, and tears streamed from his eyes. “Senior Yunfei, entering the main sect was always your dream. It was because of your hard work that you’ve turned into a role model that I could emulate, and I could enter the main sect as well.

“Today’s events happened because of me. Let me settle them for you. I beg you,” Xiao Yong begged.

At this point, the number of onlookers grew, and Zhou Donghuang also learned of the past events through word-of-mouth.

The skinny youth named “Xiao Yong” was careless while walking and had accidentally stepped on the shoe of the Donghuang Sect disciple, Fang Lunjie. Even though he had apologized many times, Fang Lunjie still said that he had to lick his shoe clean.

At this point, Hong Yunfei stood up for Xiao Yong but was defeated and injured by Fang Lunjie.

Xiao Yong and Hong Yunfei were from the same batch of people who had entered the Donghuang Sect through the Donghuang Sub-Sect’s examinations.

Other than being an outer disciple, Fang Lunjie also had a father who was an outer elder. In the Donghuang Sect, many disciples feared him and did not dare to offend him. Those who had offended him in the past had all suffered the consequences for doing so.

Under such a situation, Fang Lunjie became extremely arrogant and insensitive.

Subconsciously, over time, Zhou Donghuang’s gaze had become cold.

Such a thing could actually happen in his Donghuang Sect?

“That’s enough.”

Zhou Donghuang stepped out slowly, cutting through the crowd of people and glanced impassively at Fang Lunjie. He then glanced at Xiao Yong, who was kneeling, and said, “Is kneeling down and licking someone’s shoe something that the Donghuang Sect taught you?

“After you came here from the sub-sect, you learned to throw away your pride?”

Once Zhou Donghuang spoke, Xiao Yong’s face instantly became red. “No… That’s… That’s not the case!”

“Who are you? Are you trying to meddle in matters that do not concern you like Hong Yunfei?”

Fang Lunjie glanced at Zhou Donghuang. Seeing that Zhou Donghuang was younger than him and looked more innocent as well, his eyes flashed with slight jealousy. He casually pointed at Hong Yunfei.

“Did you witness what happened to him? If you do not wish to suffer the same fate, then get lost!”

As Fang Lunjie spoke, he used a commanding tone, making him appear even more arrogant.

However, Zhou Donghuang ignored Fang Lunjie and instead looked at Hong Yunfei, who had propped himself up and was sitting shakily.

“Are you Hong Yunfei? From the Yunfeng Prefecture’s Hong family?”

“How did you know?”

Hong Yunfei was extremely shocked, and his eyes widened.

A few years ago, he had left his family and entered the Donghuang Sub-Sect. He mentioned that he was from the Yunfeng Prefecture, but he had never mentioned that he was from the elite Hong family tribe. So no one was truly aware of the fact that he was from the city or that he was from an elite family.

“I also know that you are the Hong family’s beloved young master.”

Zhou Donghuang smiled lightly.

“You… Who are you?!”

Hong Yunfei then narrowed his gaze at the man before him. He could swear that he had never met him before.

This man had on a set of white clothes, was handsome and had bushy eyebrows. He looked regal, and this was especially because of the confidence that he radiated. With one glance, one would feel respectful towards him.

“Do you still remember Chen Dandan?” Zhou Donghuang smiled and asked.

Hong Yunfei’s facial expression changed greatly.

Chen Dandan. Of course, he remembered the name Chen Dandan. In fact, he would never forget it for the rest of his life.

“You… You know Chen Dandan?”

Hong Yunfei trembled internally.

“Yes, I do.”

Zhou Donghuang nodded his head. “Not only do I recognize her, but I am her old friend, and I know of the events that happened between you and her.”

Just as Zhou Donghuang uttered his words, Hong Yunfei’s face had changed, and Fang Lunjie, who had been ignored by Zhou Donghuang, now barked out in utter rage, “Young man, you dare to ignore me! You’re really asking for it!”

With that shout from Fang Lunjie, his entire being rushed forward like a leopard and headed straight for Zhou Donghuang.

“Be careful!” Hong Yunfei urgently reminded Zhou Donghuang.

However, what happened next caused Hong Yunfei and the entire crowd to look up in utter shock.

Boom…

A crisp, clear sound rang out. Before Fang Lunjie, who had charged forward, could make any moves against the white-clothed man, the white-clothed young man had already hit his face as fast as lightning. After Fang Lunjie spat out a fresh mouthful of blood, his entire body flew to the side, and he landed heavily on the ground with a crash.

This entire scene caused the crowd to turn deathly silent, except for Fang Lunjie, who had yelled out in pain.

“Who is he? He managed to send Fang Lunjie flying with one slap?”

“Fang Lunjie is one of the most powerful in our sect… Among the outer disciples, no one has such power…”

“Could he be an inner disciple?”

…

For the onlookers, which were outer disciples of the Donghuang Sect, they had all begun to suspect that this young man in white was not one of them and was instead an inner disciple of the Donghuang Sect.

“Even if you are an inner disciple, my father will never forgive you! Just you wait! I’ll remember you! Just you wait!”

An enraged voice rang out from Fang Lunjie, who was pitifully trying to steady himself. After staring at Zhou Donghuang fiercely, he hobbled away to find help.

Zhou Donghuang did not care much for Fang Lunjie and continued to look quietly at Hong Yunfei.

Under Zhou Donghuang’s solemn gaze, Hong Yunfei was floored.

He had not expected this man to know about his matters with Chen Dandan. Furthermore, he had not expected that an inner disciple of the Donghuang Sect would recognize him.

At this moment, within the Donghuang Sect, no one had recognized his true identity yet. No one knew of his previous affairs with Chen Dandan that allowed him to come across the esteemed Donghuang Sect Leader, Zhou Donghuang, who had had issues with Chen Dandan due to his adoptive mother, Lin Lan.

“It seems as though… I can no longer stay in the Donghuang Sect. Perhaps… I cannot even leave the Donghuang Sect alive.”

Although Hong Yunfei had been mentally prepared for his identity to be exposed when he first entered the Donghuang Sub-Sect, this turn of events still left him feeling desolate and regretful. He truly regretted not rejecting his father’s request for him to chase Chen Dandan as his inability to enter the Valley of Medicine Masters had left him with unspeakable shame and pain.
