A ruthless bandit from the celestial realm, he began his cultivation journey after kidnapping the Em

Before long, a series of clanging sounds came from the cave...

Ye Chen stood in the courtyard watching.

Lu Luo's storage bag was like a multi-purpose toolbox, containing all sorts of tools and various kinds of wood. He took them all out one by one in front of Ye Chen...

First, he repaired the windows, then the carved wooden doors, and then even the roof underwent special repairs and reinforcement. Not content with fixing the drafty house, he even personally crafted luxurious furniture...

Last night, Ye Chen smashed all the tables and chairs in his room while cultivating. Seeing this, Lü Luo replaced them to prevent Ye Chen from becoming unhappy about the lack of furniture and then trying to steal his cave dwelling...

He is working so hard now in order to protect his cave dwelling.

Ye Chen nodded repeatedly, quite satisfied with the renovated house, which was even more impressive than before and looked brand new...

"Your cooking skills are pretty good..."

Upon hearing this, Lü Luo was overjoyed, and her tense mood relaxed slightly...

"Thank you for the compliment, senior brother..."

"As long as my senior brother is satisfied, that's all that matters!"

After all, if Ye Chen liked it, he would naturally continue to live in this house and wouldn't try to take over his cave dwelling, which would put his mind at ease...

Nobody wants their comfortable cave dwelling to be taken away by someone else...

If it were anyone else, Lu Luo wouldn't have held back and would have taught the other person a lesson. But since it was Ye Chen, he didn't have the guts...

After all, he had personally witnessed Ye Chen cripple Long Aotian's manhood with a single kick. Whether he could defeat him or not was one thing, but he certainly didn't want to encounter such a brutal attack...

If he were to accidentally have his manhood broken, his life would lose more than half of its meaning, so what would be the point of having a cave dwelling?

In contrast, he would rather help Ye Chen repair the house than spar with him...

At this moment, a number of disciples had gathered outside the courtyard to watch the commotion...

Two disciples couldn't resist coming in to watch Lü Luo repairing Ye Chen's house, their faces beaming with joy...

"Hey, isn't this Lu Luo? I remember you used to hate doing repairs, so why are you fixing furniture now?"

"Wow, these tables and chairs are quite exquisite! They're even carved with patterns..."

"Tsk tsk tsk, as expected of Senior Brother Lü's skills, they're absolutely superb! He really put his heart into it..."

They praised Lu Luo's cooking skills, but their words implied they were mocking him...

Anyone with eyes could see that they were there to make a fool of Lü Luo.

After all, if it weren't for fear of Ye Chen's challenge, Lü Luo would never have come to help repair the house...

Upon hearing this, Lü Luo, who was crafting a wooden chair, turned pale with anger. He glared at the two young disciples and gritted his teeth.

"Li Yi!"

"Wang Chao..."

"What I do is none of your business! Get out..."

These two disciples didn't usually get along with him, but their strengths were about the same, and neither could do anything to the other.

Otherwise, he would have already taught them a lesson right now...

I was already furious about being forced to work, but then my arch-enemy came to watch and make a fool of me, which made it even more infuriating...

Li Yi and Wang Chao acted as if they hadn't heard anything and continued to mock him from the side.

"Since Senior Brother Lü has such leisure time, why don't you come to my place for some repairs as well?"

"Hey, the outhouse in my cave is a bit collapsed. How about we ask Senior Brother Lü to help build a new one?"

"That's a great idea. With Senior Brother Lü Luo's skills, I'm sure the outhouse he builds will even have intricate carvings..."

"Hahahaha..."

The two burst into laughter without any restraint...

They came specifically to see Lu Luo make a fool of himself as soon as they heard he was in trouble, and now that they had a chance to kick him while he was down, they certainly wouldn't let it pass...

"you..."

Faced with their deliberate humiliation, Lü Luo felt a surge of anger and wanted nothing more than to rush forward and fight them...

But the thought of promising Ye Chen to repair these things within an hour made him suppress his anger, planning to find another opportunity to take revenge later...

He chose to ignore the two disciples and continued to focus on crafting the wooden chair...

Seeing this, Li Yi and Wang Chao wanted to make a few more sarcastic remarks, but before they could speak, a cold voice rang in their ears...

Did I let you in?

Ye Chen looked at the two disciples in front of him expressionlessly, and suddenly spoke.

He left the gate open so that Lü Luo could leave after finishing the house repairs, not so they could come in and laugh at him...

Ye Chen didn't care about the grudges between these disciples, but now that Lü Luo was helping him with chores, he figured he had to consider the owner before beating the dog.

These two disciples barged into his cave and even humiliated Lü Luo, who was working, right in front of him. They clearly didn't respect him at all...

The laughter stopped abruptly...

Li Yi and Wang Chao were taken aback, then turned to look at Ye Chen standing to the side, their expressions hesitant.

"Senior Brother Xu, don't misunderstand, we just came to watch Lü Luo work..."

"We don't get along with Lü Luo either, and we've come to see him make a fool of himself. We hope Senior Brother Xu won't mind..."

Ye Chen glanced at the two of them and snorted coldly.

"mind..."

"Since when has this king's cave been allowed to be entered by just any cat or dog?"

Upon hearing this, Li Yi and Wang Chao's faces immediately darkened, and a surge of anger rose within them.

This is clearly saying that the two of them are like cats and dogs...

But when they thought of Ye Chen's strength, the two of them held back for the time being and gritted their teeth.

"Since Senior Brother Xu doesn't like others entering his cave at will, then let's leave..."

"Goodbye..."

After Li Yi finished speaking with Wang Chao, he turned and walked towards the courtyard gate...

"stop..."

Ye Chen shouted in a deep voice.

"This is my territory. You think you can come and go as you please?"

"Um?"

Li Yi and Wang Chao frowned, turned to look at Ye Chen's unfriendly expression, and immediately felt displeased as well.

"Or what do you want to do?"

"Senior Brother Xu, don't go too far..."

They both thought they had given Ye Chen a lot of face, letting him leave as he asked, and they hadn't offended him in any way, so why were they being so aggressive?

Their cultivation levels were both at the tenth level of Qi Refining, while Ye Chen was only at the eighth level. If it were a two-on-one fight, the advantage would be on their side...

"Too much?"

Ye Chen sneered, looking at the two disciples in front of him, and said in an annoyed tone.

"You've trespassed into my cave. If you keep coming and going like this, people will think I'm easy to bully..."

"You can leave, but... you two have to leave your storage bags behind..."

He was just worried about running out of spirit-replenishing pills when these two disciples barged into his cave...

Since they're already here, we can't just let them leave easily. He wouldn't be a mountain king if we didn't skin him alive...
