One shichen had passed...

Right now, Yue-Xian's group had set up their tents not far from the building because the surrounding area had lawns and rocks surrounding it. Sleeping here was better than lying on hard ground at the edge of the pond like the other disciples. Those of them set up tents near the pond so that they could get to the pond first when the time came.

"Do you think Miss Yue-Xian is going to be fine?" San-Jie asked the big man with great concern. After listening to the previous stories, he realized that he had made a big mistake. Had it not been for Yue-Xian's help, he would have died already.

"I think she is probably alright. Judging by his demeanor, he probably isn't a psychopath. But the reason why he only summoned her alone could not be explained either," the big man replied with a worried look on his face as well.

The rest of them had the same opinion as the two. Only the previously thrashed and flung-away junior disciple had to rest in the tent, and it was estimated that it would take several weeks for him to return to a normal state. And during that time, he needed to rest a lot.

"Hopefully she's safe; otherwise, we're going to have trouble with her master!" San-Jie said with trembling fear at the thought of the woman's master, supreme elder, and also the third level of the Divine Emperor stage martial master.

"I hope so, and this is the reason why I haven't contacted the sect yet!" Dan-Hian, the big man, had fear appear on his face as well.

Everyone in the Deity Weapon Sect knew how much the Supreme Elder loved and cared for Yue-Xian, and if anything had happened to her, they would not have escaped death. So, they only prayed that the young woman would return safely.

Back at the hall inside Zheng-Fu's magic building…

Zzzzzzz!!! Zzzzzzz!!!

'What am I going to do? It's already been an hour, but I still can't make a choice. If I chose the knowledge and techniques, my juniors, Dan-Hian, and San-Jie would die. But if I choose them and give him Master's techniques, I'll instantly become an unfilial disciple.'

The woman's forehead was now wrinkled as she thought about her decision to choose between her sect mates and her gratitude and a promise to her master not to share the secret of her technique with anyone else.

"Gosh!!! Why do I have to go through such a terrible situation!?" Suddenly, the young woman shouted loudly to release the stress that had accumulated in the past shichen.

Huh...?

"Yaaaaawn!!! Did you decide?" Zheng-Fu suddenly opened his eyes and yawned before asking the young woman if she had made up her mind.

"I... I... I... Um... Give me a little more time!" The young woman did not know how to answer Zheng-Fu, as she could not figure out which one to choose, so she asked for more time.

"Alright! Take your time. There are still almost two shichens left, so please take it easy!" As he finished speaking, Zheng-Fu lay down again, carelessly.

"Tsk! What a crazy guy. Why is he so evil? Sigh... My hunch wasn't really wrong. He's a very dangerous person, and he's also a very deceitful person!" The young woman said in a low voice and displeased tone, sticking her tongue at Zheng-Fu once before turning around to think about it.

"It's not good to secretly insult others."

"Ah… you're sleeping, aren't you? It's also not good to eavesdrop on other people!"

Gulp!

Zheng-Fu even choked on his saliva when he heard the young woman's retort words just now.

"I was sleeping but accidentally heard someone gossiping, and I couldn't sleep. And if I can't sleep, I want a faster answer!?" Zheng-Fu did not know what to say, so he brought up her decision.

"Yo… you!!! Then you should go back to sleep, and sleep 'till the next morning!" The young woman was so furious hearing Zheng-Fu's menacing words that she forgot her cold expression.

Zzzzzzz!!! Zzzzzzz!!!

The young woman then rethought this difficult decision. She knew that if she did not choose one, the young man in front of her would have to do something. Therefore, the only way she could survive this situation was to ask her master for help.

'Um, I need to ask for Master's help,' thought the woman, taking out the jade stone before activating it and sending a message.

Whoooooosh!!!

"Alright, I hope he'll arrive in time!" When the message was sent, the woman prayed for her master to arrive here as soon as possible. As for her, she would try to delay the young man in front of her for as long as possible.

"Huh! Do you think that the person at the end of the jade stone can help you? You have underestimated me... Since you chose this method, don't say I'm cruel. And besides, even if the person who comes to help you is the intermediate Divine Emperor stage martial master, he won't be able to do anything with this building unless there are more than five people!"

Ah!!!

Zheng-Fu's words that suddenly sounded loudly made the girl's face turn pale and then dark green. She was so shocked that she could not behave. She did not know what to say or what to do right now. Everything did not turn out as she had intended. Not even from the start.

Her plans were broken. How could her face not be so frightened that it turned pale? Moreover, the young man also said that even an intermediate Divine Emperor stage martial master would not be able to harm this building except by having five people come.

Her master was only the third level of the Divine Emperor stage martial master and was the only one. So, who could help her and her friends out? But even so, she still thought of encouraging herself. She thought that the young man in front of him might only frighten her.

"Who? I didn't ask anyone to help. Do you slander me? Or do you want to force me to make a decision?" The young woman continued to pretend to be ignorant as before. She thought that Zheng-Fu would never know because she had done it carefully.

"Alright, if you say so. Let's see whose words are true between yours and mine, but... I can't guarantee what will happen to your friends!" Zheng-Fu knew that the young woman was trying to pretend to act to delay time. But she could not fool him, so Zheng-Fu shouted again.

"Jin-Tian, Black Lotus, and Solo, the three of you, please go out to welcome this beautiful lady's friends instead of me, with such an utterly extreme welcome. After you're done, bring them to me!"

Moooooo!!!

Awoooo!!!

Grrrrrrrr!!!

As soon as Zheng-Fu's command sounded and ended, the three's response immediately rang out. In fact, he did not even need to shout because he could communicate with them spiritually. He just wanted to shout to let the young woman know.

"Wait... wait... wait! Young Master can't do that. I've told you that I didn't…"

"Didn't use communication jade stone to communicate?" Before the young woman could finish speaking, Zheng-Fu suddenly interrupted with a sly smile and continued, "In this building, I know everything. No matter what anyone does, even if I'm asleep, I can feel it. So, when you use communication jade stone, I can feel it too… I gave you a chance, but you still think of hiding the truth from me.

As such, you can't blame me if I act too harshly on your friends."

Zheng-Fu's every word was extremely strong and powerful, sounding like an elder teaching a young girl. It did not seem like the words that came out of a young man at all, even though the young woman saw that the other party was even younger than her.

Suddenly, a cry rang out as tears streamed from the young woman's beautiful eyes as she realized that she had made a huge mistake in making this decision. She did not think it would turn out like this at all.

"Please!!! I beg you... Young Master, don't do anything to them. It's all because of me. They've got nothing to do with anything. If you want to do anything, do it to me alone." Yue-Xian cried sadly at her action.

"Of course, you're wrong. But I can't let your friends go, as a reminder to yourself that it's all because you are being dishonest. So, I…"

"Aaaah!!! Aaaaah!!! Don't… don't…!!!"

Roarrrrrrrr!!!

Huh...?

Suddenly, a howling and tortured cry rang out along with Jin-Tian's roar. And when the sounds rang out, the young woman's face suddenly turned paler before she anxiously turned to look behind her at the door that blocked them from each other.

"No! Young Master, I surrender. I'll tell you. Please order them to stop!" In the end, the young woman could not stand it any longer. She did not want to become the person who caused her comrades to die, so she agreed to tell him about her forging techniques.

Hearing the young woman's surrender, a smile at the corner of Zheng-Fu's mouth appeared happily. "Good! If you were willing to tell me from the start, they would have been fine," said Zheng-Fu, before shouting out, ordering the three to stop. "You three can stop!" And then he turned to look at the young woman again.

In fact, the cries just now were not from her companions but from the three Song Brothers who were in charge of this drama. Before Zheng-Fu had yelled at his monster beasts, he had also sent a sound wave to the three of them.

The young woman's group was actually still outside and was resting as before. Nothing happened at all. Since this was a deception that Zheng-Fu had come up with. And if the young woman had found out, she would have been further outraged for a long time.

But even so, Zheng-Fu was not afraid that she would take revenge on him later because he would immediately leave when he finished his errands here. Therefore, it would be difficult to find him. But anyway, if they shared the same fate, they might meet again.

"I'll let you say one more time, which way will you choose!?"
