Chapter 290: Know yourself and change your mindset.

The little girl nodded with red eyes: "Yes"

Chen Feng rubbed the little girl's head: "Don't be afraid, tell me what happened here."

When in the restaurant, Chen Feng had already heard the conversation between Murong Yue and others, so he also came here.

Chen Feng did not have much aversion to the struggle for interests within his own sect.

In his opinion, it is okay to exploit some rules for profit.

It is impossible for a single force to completely prevent such things from happening.

Because this is human nature, and to restrain human nature is to go against everyone.

He is not a saint and he won't deal with such things every day.

For example, in the modern world, there are corrupt officials in every country, and this is unavoidable.

There was just one thing that Chen Feng couldn't tolerate.

That is to massacre ordinary people and destroy humanity for the sake of profit. This is something Chen Feng absolutely cannot tolerate.

As Chen Feng continued to infuse spiritual energy into the little girl's body, the little girl's emotions also calmed down.

She began to tell Chen Feng what happened in the village.

The little girl's name is Yin Yin, and she is a villager of Xishui Village, Xihualin.

Xishui Village is one of several large villages and towns in Xihualin. The villagers living here have made a living by farming and hunting for generations.

In addition, the geographical location here is remote, so although life is hard, it is still bearable.

But with the appearance of a spiritual vein near Xihualin, the peaceful life here was disrupted.

Many immortal cultivation forces wanted to settle in this place, and the local residents naturally became an obstacle.

At the beginning, these forces would offer money to buy their villages and then let them relocate. Many villages also moved out of Xihualin one after another.

But not everyone plans to move away.

After all, this is their ancestral land where they have lived for generations. How could they just give up on it?

For those villages that did not want to leave, those forces began to use coercive measures and directly started massacres.

In five villages, nearly 6,000 people were massacred.

The ones who took action were naturally the northern forces led by Yaoge and others.

After they took over the territory of Xihualin, they sold it to some immortal cultivators who had migrated to the northern border.

After listening to Yin Yin's words, Chen Feng shook his head and sighed.

For the sake of greed and profit, these people can really do anything.

Chen Feng has already seen the problem, which is caused by the lack of supervision of work style.

As Xingfengmen becomes more and more powerful and owns larger and larger territory, some people will take advantage of loopholes to make profits.

Liu Qian, Mo Chen and others might not do such a thing.

But they cannot control the hearts of their subordinates, nor can they control the hearts of these northern martial arts forces.

The system of Xingfengmen is still not perfect, which is a disadvantage caused by its shallow foundation.

For example, most of the people in Xingfengmen now are not trained by themselves, but recruited from outside, which will cause big problems.

"Brother Immortal, can you save my grandpa?" Yin Yin suddenly spoke, looking at Chen Feng with clear eyes.

Chen Feng nodded slightly: "Well, take me to meet your grandfather and others."

He had already learned from Yin Yin that the reason Yin Yin was discovered was because he was out collecting herbs to treat his grandfather.

Chen Feng took Yin Yin's hand and walked towards the village.

Yin Yin looked back at the warriors who were fixed in place and asked:

"Brother Immortal, have you immobilized them with your magic?"

Chen Feng nodded: "Yes."

Yin Yin said with some longing: "Immortals are so powerful. I wish I could become an immortal."

In fact, those people were not immobilized by Chen Feng. He did not know spells like immobilization. He simply used his spiritual power to control these people forcibly.

This method is easy for cultivators to solve, but ordinary people and warriors have no way to do it.

After a while, Chen Feng and Yin Yin entered the village.

After Chen Feng and Yin Yin left, the heads of the warriors who were immobilized fell directly off their necks.

On the village road, Chen Feng walked holding Yin Yin's hand.

The whole village was filled with the smell of blood; it was obvious that a massacre had taken place here.

Chen Feng does not discriminate against mortals.

Because he is a modern man, this kind of class discrimination does not exist for him.

When Xingfengmen took over the northern border, he did not exploit these mortals.

Instead, letting these mortals work for the Xingfeng Gate is mutually beneficial.

He also promised to give these mortals a stable home.

The home is stable now, but problems have arisen within.

Since ancient times, no matter which force or dynasty, it began to decline after internal problems arose.

Before, Chen Feng didn’t take these things seriously.

Because for him, his own cultivation and development of technology are the most important.

It now seems that if the system of Xingfengmen is not perfect, the young dragon slayer may end up becoming a dragon.

Yin Yin suddenly said:

"Brother Immortal, those people are from the Xingfeng Sect. You saved me, and they will definitely take revenge on you."

Chen Feng asked: "They said they were from the Xingfeng Sect?"

Yin Yin nodded: "Yes, they said before that we were from Xingfeng Sect and asked us to leave here."

Hearing this, Chen Feng's eyes turned cold.

These people are really ruining the reputation of Xingfengmen.

"Not all members of the Xingfeng Sect are bad people, and those people are not from the Xingfeng Sect." Chen Feng said.

Yin Yin looked up at Chen Feng: "Brother Immortal is also from the Xingfeng Sect?"

Hearing this, Chen Feng looked at Yin Yin in surprise: "Why do you ask that?"

Yin Yin said: "I guessed it. When my brother mentioned the Xingfeng Gate just now, his expression was different."

Chen Feng laughed immediately, then rubbed Yin Yin's head:
"Yes, I am indeed from the Xingfeng Sect. Those people just now were not from the Xingfeng Sect. They were just a bunch of termites."

Yin Yin nodded thoughtfully.

After a while, Chen Feng and Yin Yin came to the east of the village, where there was a dilapidated ancestral hall.

When Chen Feng walked to the door of the ancestral hall, he was stunned.

Because there was a stone statue at the gate of the ancestral hall, and the statue was exactly himself.

However, many parts of the statue have been broken.

Yin Yin looked at the statue and said:

"This was built by the village chief and his men. It is a statue of the True Lord. However, after the people in the village were killed, the statue was destroyed."

Chen Feng nodded, he also understood what those people did.

The Xingfeng Gate, which once protected them, is now here to slaughter them. Anyone would do the same.

Chen Feng asked: "Don't you hate him?"

Yin Yin shook her head:

"Grandpa said that Master Zhenjun definitely doesn't know about this. If he knew, he would definitely take care of it."

"And it was Master Zhenjun who protected the North. If it weren't for Master Zhenjun, we would have been invaded long ago, and ordinary people like us wouldn't have the lives we have now."

At this moment, Chen Feng suddenly waved his right hand, and a stream of spiritual power hit the statue directly.

The statue instantly turned into a pile of rubble.

Seeing this scene, Yin Yin's face turned pale, and she was obviously a little scared.

"Brother Immortal..."

Chen Feng said softly: "He can't even manage his own power, how can he deserve this statue?"

After Chen Feng finished speaking, he took Yin Yin and walked into the ancestral hall.

When Chen Feng destroyed the statue, his aura suddenly changed, and his state of mind grew in an instant.

It is very difficult to deny oneself and recognize one's mistakes. People are always arrogant, and Chen Feng is no exception.

After reaching the Golden Elixir stage, he possessed absolute power and was able to look down on everyone and treat mortals as ants.

This state of mind is problematic.

Now, Chen Feng can clearly recognize his mistakes. He thinks he is not worthy of being believed by the people in this village.

Every cause has its effect.

If the source of the deaths is considered, the people in these villages died because of him.

Since he was the one who created the Xingfeng Gate, he must have a share of responsibility.

I didn't do what a sect leader should do. I only focused on development and forgot about everything else.

Knowing yourself is a change in your state of mind.

Hengduan Mountains, in the Xingfeng Gate Cabinet.

Liu Qian, Mo Chen and others were dealing with matters that were reported from the various branches of the Xingfeng Sect.

Xingfengmen has too many branches, and many things need to be decided by the headquarters.

At this moment, Liu Qian, who was handling things, suddenly stopped.

Because a message suddenly came from the satellite phone in front of him.

After reading the content of the message, Liu Qian's face turned pale instantly.

Mo Chen, who was standing next to him, saw Liu Qian's sudden expression and asked in confusion, "Brother Liu, what's wrong?"

Liu Qian did not answer Mo Chen, but picked up the satellite phone and started dialing.

After a while, the call was connected, and Liu Qian said:
"Mo Yang, take the people from the Qinglong formation and go to Xihua Forest with me immediately. Hurry!"

After saying just one sentence, Liu Qian hung up the phone, then he looked at Mo Chen and said:

"Take three thousand inner sect warriors and capture all the people in the medicine pavilion as quickly as possible. Also, carefully investigate what the medicine pavilion has done during this period of time."

Seeing Liu Qian's serious look, Mo Chen asked again: "What happened to Brother Liu?"

The Qinglong formation was dispatched again, and people were arrested again, which made Mo Chen feel that something was wrong.

Moreover, the people arrested this time were from Yaoge. Yaoge was the earliest force to follow Xingfengmen, even earlier than their Mo family. Now they were able to take action without any hesitation.

Liu Qian said coldly: "The Sect Master has come out of seclusion!"

Upon hearing that the sect leader had come out of seclusion, Mo Chen didn't dare to say a word and left quickly.

Although Liu Qian did not say that this matter was arranged by Chen Feng, it was definitely related to Chen Feng, so he naturally would not ask more questions.

Inside the ancestral hall.

Chen Feng and Yin Yin met the survivors in the village.

There were about a dozen people, more than half of whom were children, and the rest were elderly people and women.

These people hid in the basement of the ancestral hall.

When they saw Yin Yin coming in, everyone had a smile on their face.

But after seeing Chen Feng behind Yin Yin, these people became alert, and many of them picked up sickles and other weapons.

"Yin Yin, why did you bring someone in? Who is he?" a woman holding a sickle asked vigilantly.

Yin Yin said quickly:

"Don't be afraid, this is the immortal from the Xingfeng Sect. He just saved me!"

The woman said angrily:

"It was the people from the Xingfeng Sect who killed the people in the village. How could the Xingfeng Sect come to save us? Don't be fooled by them. Come here quickly!"

Although the others did not speak, their eyes looking at Chen Feng were filled with hatred.

At this time, an old man walked out from the crowd. He looked at everyone and said, "Everyone, get out of here!"

When Yin Yin saw the old man, she quickly said, "Grandpa."

The old man looked very pale and walked slowly.

Chen Feng could tell at a glance that the old man was an innate warrior, but he had suffered internal injuries.

The old man looked at Chen Feng and bowed: "I am the village chief of Xiaxishui Village, and I am honored to meet the Immortal Master!"

Others were blinded by hatred, but he was not. The person in front of him came here without taking any action, so it was obvious that he would not hurt them.

Chen Feng waved his right hand, and a bottle of pills flew in front of the old man: "Eat it, and you can follow me."

The old man took the pill, took a look at it, and then knelt on the ground:

"Thank you, God!"

The old man's voice was trembling a little. He was an innate warrior. Although he didn't know what this elixir was, he could tell from the fragrance of the medicine that it was definitely a healing elixir of the transformation level.

At this time, a gentle force lifted the old man up from the ground, and Chen Feng said:
"Don't worry, I will give you an explanation for this matter."

After Chen Feng finished speaking, he walked outside.

After Chen Feng left, the old man looked at Yin Yin and asked, "Where did you meet the master?"

Yin Yin quickly recounted the entire story.

After hearing Yin Yin's words, the old man seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes suddenly filled with tears.

Seeing her grandfather suddenly burst into tears, Yin Yin anxiously asked, "Grandpa, what's wrong with you?"

The old man shook his head: "I'm fine, let's go out!"

The woman who spoke earlier said hesitantly, "There are people from the Xingfeng Sect outside. What if we go out and get discovered?"

"I told you, those who massacred our village and are not from the Xingfeng Sect, follow me out!"

After saying this, the old man led his men out of the ancestral hall.

Outside the ancestral hall, Chen Feng waited quietly.

After a while, the old man led a dozen people out of the ancestral hall.

However, everyone looked somewhat alert and kept looking around.

The old man walked up to Chen Feng and bowed to him again: "My Lord."

Chen Feng said: "Let's go."

After saying that, Chen Feng led a group of people out of the village.

Along the way, no one spoke, but many people showed fear on their faces, obviously afraid of being discovered.

Yin Yin kept asking Chen Feng questions, and Chen Feng answered them with a smile.

The old man next to him wanted to stop him, but seeing that Chen Feng was very easy-going, he didn't ask any more questions.

Others don’t know Chen Feng’s identity, but he has already guessed it.

Because he had seen Chen Feng before. That was a long time ago. He had followed the people from Xingfeng Sect to fight a great battle against Ningguo.

Although Chen Feng's appearance now is somewhat different from before, he feels that the person in front of him is Chen Zhenjun.

Soon, everyone arrived at the entrance of the village.

As soon as they arrived at the village entrance, everyone's faces changed.

Because at the entrance of the village, hundreds of warriors were gathering, all of them holding long swords and looking coldly at Chen Feng and others.

Leading the group were Wang Tian and Qin Yao, with Murong Yue and Ming Lao also present.

Wang Tian said sternly:

"I didn't expect there were still so many people hiding. But that's OK, we can solve it together this time."

After saying that, Wang Tian looked at Chen Feng and asked, "Did you kill my people?"

Wang Tian has discovered that among all the people, only Chen Feng's clothes do not look like those of a villager.

He had taken Murong Yue for a walk before, and when he came back he found the bodies of several of his subordinates at the entrance of the village.

So Wang Tian immediately gathered people over. What happened here must not be discovered by anyone.

At this time, Murong Yue next to him looked at Chen Feng, frowned slightly and said: "It's you."

Murong Yue had already recognized Chen Feng, the man she had met before in the Yingke Building.

She didn't expect to see Chen Feng here.

Wang Tian beside him asked doubtfully: "Miss Murong knows this person?"

Originally, Wang Tian was planning to take action directly, but if Murong Yue knew him, he would have to ask first.

If the other party is Murong Yue's man, he doesn't mind giving him face.
