I tried to kill the heroines of destiny, but they ended up chasing after me.

“I don’t think there’s any other… better way… unless he leaves here…” Yang Wei’s gaze suddenly shifted to Huang Quan at the end, and his tone instantly turned cold.

“Yang Wei, no way!” Yu Fei said.

"Then he must die..." At this moment, Yang Wei's spiritual power immediately concentrated on Huang Quan, and a killing intent immediately filled the surroundings, as if he was about to make a move.

"Stop!" Yu Fei suddenly changed her shout to a roar, her tone revealing a heavy tone.

Sensing Yang Wei's murderous intent, Huang Quan frowned again, but this time it wasn't out of anger, but rather a deep sense of doubt.

He didn't know what had happened.

By now, Huang Quan had only figured out one thing: this Yang Wei must have some kind of friendship or brotherhood with Yu Fei. Yang Wei must know something that is definitely detrimental to Yu Fei and has a life-or-death relationship with him. The key to resolving this matter lies with him... Therefore, Yang Wei revealed his murderous intent to him for Yu Fei's sake.

But what exactly is this matter?

At the same time, Yang Wei, who had been yelled at by Yu Fei, suddenly stopped. He looked at Yu Fei with disbelief on his face and pointed at Huang Quan, saying, "He's just an outsider... Is it worth it for you to do this?"

Yu Fei remained silent, and Huang Quan remained silent as well.

"He's only known me for three days, just three days. Can that compare to our ten years of brotherhood? And you yelled at me for him? Twice!" Yang Wei's face was grim, his heart filled with anguish. The first time he broke Yu Fei's door, she yelled at him, and he could accept that, but this time…

“I…” Yu Fei’s expression also became complicated. After uttering the word “I,” he lowered his head and said nothing more.

"Fine! Since that's how you are, then I don't need to say anything more... Goodbye!" Yang Wei uttered the last two words with difficulty, turned around and walked towards the exit, as if he had made a huge decision.

"Alright!" Seeing Yang Wei like this, Yu Fei became anxious and shouted again.

"Is there anything else you want to say?" Yang Wei paused but did not turn around to look at Yu Fei.

"call……"

Yu Fei took a deep breath, trying her best to calm herself down. Finally, facing Yang Wei's retreating figure at the door, she whispered, "Don't be like this... It's true we've been brothers for over ten years... But precisely because of that, I don't want you to change anything about me... We don't have many childhood playmates left... Actually, I know... Besides Xiong Pan, you're the only one who's ever been truly good to me..."

Upon hearing this, Yang Wei's body trembled slightly.

"I will naturally handle this matter... Don't worry! I will always remember everything you've done for me." At this moment, Yu Fei's tone revealed an undeniable sincerity.

"You..." Sensing Yu Fei's sincerity, Yang Wei sighed softly, "What are you going to do? What can you do?"

"Hehe..." Yu Fei chuckled softly, not giving a precise answer to Yang Wei's question, but his expression was one of smiles and great confidence.

Seeing this, Yang Wei pondered.

"I'll find someone to fix the door for you..." He said this after a moment, but after he finished speaking, his figure completely disappeared from the courtyard gate.

Watching Yang Wei's departing figure gradually disappear into the distance, Yu Fei's smile slowly faded, turning into a bitter smile instead.

The word "brother" sometimes evokes only a bitter smile, not because there's any rift between them, but because of a feeling... a lack of understanding...

But at that moment, Huang Quan, who had been silent all along, spoke.

"Can you tell me what happened?"

Huang Quan had been wondering about this since earlier, but because Yu Fei and Yang Wei were present, he didn't ask directly. As an outsider, he knew that saying anything during this sensitive time would inevitably cause unnecessary trouble, so silence was the best policy.

Now that only Yu Fei is left, he no longer has those concerns.

Faced with Huang Quan's question, Yu Fei sighed again and then told Huang Quan everything without hiding anything.

After hearing this, Huang Quan's doubts not only did not lessen, but even increased.

"That's a bit strange! Why would the Xiyu clan chief add three more challenges before gaining the Ancient Yuan Divine Tree's approval?"

Why would he do that?

"What benefit does he gain from doing this, or does he really have a strong aversion to outsiders?"

"No, if he has a huge grudge against me, then isn't all this unnecessary? If he wants me to leave, he can just give the order. I'm not even from this village, so why go through all this trouble?"

"Could there be another purpose? But what could that purpose be? Three checkpoints..."

After listening to Yu Fei's story, Huang Quan began to ponder for a moment, because he felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

"What's wrong?" Yu Fei asked with concern when she saw Huang Quan deep in thought.

"Hmm... It's nothing!" Huang Quan snapped out of his reverie and shook his head at Yu Fei.

"Don't worry..." Suddenly, Yu Fei seemed to realize something, and a resolute look flashed in her eyes.

"Huh?" Huang Quan noticed Yu Fei's resoluteness and was taken aback once again.

"Hehe! I won't let you leave here..." Yu Fei chuckled and said simply, but there was a lot hidden in that simplicity!

Seeing Yu Fei like this, Huang Quan chuckled. In fact, he wouldn't leave here casually before figuring out the situation, because he had a strong feeling that something was about to happen.

As for what it was, he didn't know.

The next moment, he looked at Yu Fei, a hint of determination appearing in his expression. He said, "Don't worry! Before you kick me out, I... won't let myself leave here..."

At this moment, he had decided that no matter what happened, he would not let the boy in front of him suffer. The boy had been kind to him, and he had to do something about it.

It's not for any other reason than his deep gratitude, which is undeniable.

……

A certain space.

An old man sat quietly in front of the ancient Yuan Shen Tree. His eyes were slightly closed, as if in deep meditation. His body was completely still. If it weren't for the faint aura that still lingered, people might have thought he was dead.

Slowly, the leaves of the ancient primordial spirit tree fell to the ground one by one. However, as soon as these leaves touched the ground, they turned into a beam of light, which slowly flowed towards the old man's body. It was like silver snakes that kept circling around. Moreover, when these beams of light reached the old man's nose and mouth, they directly entered the old man's body through his nose and mouth.

With each ray of light entering, the old man's body suddenly exuded vitality, and his face seemed very comfortable. As the vitality increased, the old man's originally somewhat aged appearance also became somewhat youthful, as if he had suddenly become more than ten years younger.

And so, the Ancient Primordial Divine Tree seemed to have no end or limit, its leaves constantly falling and turning into light which was absorbed by the old man. The old man's expression improved more and more until he reached a state of saturation.

A moment later, the ancient divine tree stopped shedding its leaves, and the old man gradually opened his eyes.

The old man's eyes gleamed with a sharp light, yet there was a sense of confusion and emptiness within them, which eventually vanished into the passage of time.

“My spiritual power has reached the Nirvana Realm, and I should only be one step away from reaching the Mountain and Sea Realm… At that time, if I use that thing again, the four surrounding villages will be the strongest… The development of Xiyu will also reach its peak at that moment…” The old man stretched his body, felt the spiritual power in his body, and muttered to himself, revealing a hint of excitement in his tone.

The ancient divine tree opened its eyes again at the trunk, and an aura of vicissitude immediately filled the surroundings: "Yu Rong, I can no longer provide you with spiritual power... Please finish that matter as soon as possible!"

"Actually, I don't understand. Since you want that outsider to help you, why don't you just ask me to capture him? Why go through so much trouble... to have me set up checkpoints?" Yu Rong asked with a slightly puzzled expression.

Upon hearing Yu Rong's question, the Ancient Divine Tree pondered for a moment before slowly replying, "He... is different... I can sense a power from ancient times here... like a strong force of faith, which has been subtly emanating from him since he arrived here... but this force of faith is very dim. If it weren't for being in Xiyu Village, I might not have been able to detect it!"

"The power of faith?" Yu Rong suddenly asked, puzzled.

Chapter 183 Ordinary

"You mean, that young man possesses the power of ancient faith?" Yu Rong's expression changed instantly, revealing shock.

"That's one way to put it, but I can't be entirely sure if it's him... But if it really is him, and I absorb this ancient faith power, I might be able to recover to my peak... But it's precisely because of this uncertainty... so..."

"So...that's why we need to test them?" Yu Rong pondered for a moment, then said, "But even so, can't I just test them? Three checkpoints, is that the purpose?"

"Because, I sensed another power fluctuation emanating from him... a power fluctuation that alarms me! If you go and something happens... in such a sensitive time for Xiyu Village, do you think it's safe?"

"Hmm? That's not right! I saw him through my mind outside Yu Fei's courtyard. He seemed to only have the strength of the Breaking Army Realm, how could he..."

"Are you questioning me?" The Ancient Yuan Divine Tree's tone suddenly turned cold, and a powerful pressure enveloped Yu Rong.

"No... I dare not... I just have some questions, nothing else..." Yu Rong felt the cold aura of the Ancient Yuan Divine Tree and the overwhelming pressure that made him breathless. His heart trembled, and he immediately bowed his head and knelt on one knee, his eyes showing respect and fear.

At this moment, neither of them spoke, which immediately made the atmosphere somewhat dull.

Finally, the Ancient Divine Tree's tone changed again, softening slightly, and it said calmly, "There are some things you don't need to know... Alright, you may leave!"

"Yes!" Yu Rong responded without daring to say more, and quickly retreated, leaving the place.

As Yu Rong left, the Ancient Yuan Divine Tree remained calm, but after he was completely gone, a sigh slowly escaped its lips.

“Yu Rong is suspicious by nature and impatient. Without someone to assist and restrain him, he will never achieve great things… The Eastern Chen side has already begun to prepare an offensive strategy… But on our side… Alas! There is no one in the Western Yu clan who meets these conditions… So, it can only be him.”

“These past few days, my consciousness has permeated the entire Xiyu village. Unless one is stronger than me, no one will notice. I have witnessed all of this person's deeds here... And if this person recovers from his injuries, he should possess the power of the Nirvana Realm…”

"This man is grateful for kindness. As long as we make good use of his relationship with Yu Fei, we can keep him here... and see how he handles the conflict with Yang Wei... He's not the kind of person who can be forceful... These three challenges are a kind of test!"

"And if that ancient power of faith truly resides within him, then my recovery..."

"And that power within him, though not very strong, is indeed slightly different from spiritual power... What is it? Oh well! The Western Yu forces have fallen. If they can regain their strength, there's no need to worry so much... If there is hope, we should hold on to it tightly..."

Thinking of this, the ancient divine tree's weathered eye looked at this place, the place it had stayed since it became conscious. An unknown emotion appeared in its eyes before it slowly closed again, as if closing a window, leaving only endless loneliness to linger here.

……

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, almost all the villagers of Xiyu Village came to one place.

They were gathered by Yu Rong with the purpose of witnessing a person's test and the ancient Yuan Divine Tree's approval.

From a certain perspective, they all know about the ancient recognized events, but they have never seen them before, so it is inevitable that they will have some thoughts of watching the excitement and broadening their horizons.

This place is a valley, the only valley within a valley in Xiyu Village. The scenery here is not as beautiful as when Huang Quan first entered Xiyu, nor does it have the artistic conception of wisps of smoke rising from chimneys. It is just plain and unremarkable. However, this plain and unremarkable place is the sacred place in the hearts of the people of Xiyu. The reason is that there is a huge tree in this valley that has lived for countless thousands of years.

Its name is... Ancient Primordial Divine Tree.

The Xiyu people stood in two rows on both sides, leaving a path in the middle large enough for five people to walk through.

At this moment, the calm Huang Quan and the slightly anxious Yu Fei walked lightly on this road.

The people around them were mostly focused on the two of them, and they were all talking about it.

"Is it him? The one who needs the divine tree's approval?"

"Yes! That's right. It's said that his strength is at the Breaking Army Realm... I heard that Yang Wei fought him a couple of days ago..."

"Oh... really? What was the result?"

"Yeah! Yang Wei definitely won, right?"

"Of course Yang Wei wins! His speed is extraordinary... even the clan leader is very optimistic about him!"

"No, no, no...that's not it...Yang Wei didn't win..."

"What?" Upon hearing the man's words, the group erupted in chaos... their gazes suddenly falling upon him, awaiting further explanation.

The man seemed to enjoy the attention he received. After a pause, he slowly said, "Yes, Yang Wei didn't win, but he didn't lose either... It's just that Yu Fei arrived at the last minute and stopped their fight..."

"Tch!" Suddenly, everyone scoffed at his answer, showing their utter contempt.

“This…this…” The man smiled and fell silent.

At this time, there are small groups of people discussing similar topics everywhere, though the topics may differ, they are all talking about the same people.
