Chapter 2735

Clan Chief, what do you mean by this? Just refusing would be fine, why is it necessary …………………

"We must make them genuinely convinced, right?"

After a few people left, the burly man finally found a chance to speak, his words full of suspicion.

Given how much the Clan Chief favored Ye Zhangqing yesterday, how could he possibly kill him? After all, even that jar of fine wine the Clan Chief gave Ye Zhangqing to drink.

If one really wanted to kill him, how would it be done?

Would such a treasure be given to a dead person to drink? Absolutely not!

As for the burly man's doubts, the Iron Peak Clan Chief merely smiled faintly and said.

He could indeed directly refuse those few elders just now, but that is not the best approach.

Forcibly suppressing it would only lead to outward compliance but inner resentment, easily causing trouble later—not a good strategy.

The best approach is naturally for them to change their minds themselves, so he had the two leading elders personally go to Ye Zhangqing's place.

After those two have eaten the dishes Ye Zhangqing prepared, they will naturally change their minds, after all, that kid's Chúyì has been personally vetted by him—it's rock solid.

"If you want to convince everyone, naturally it's best to show your true abilities."

The Iron Peak Clan Chief said with a smile.

As for Ye Zhangqing, after returning from the Iron Peak Clan Chief, he slept straight through for three days.

Tianlin and Miao Qianqian had woken early, but Ye Zhangqing was still in a deep sleep.

Even the Iron Peak Tribe member tasked with looking after him was startled by this.

If it weren't for his faint breathing, one would think he'd died in his sleep—how could there be no movement after three days?

However, upon careful examination, his body showed no issues; moreover, his cultivation was continuously rising on its own, clearly not far from a breakthrough.

"Strange, strange—what exactly did you drink to get this drunk?"

"I don't know—it was taken out by the Clan Chief, though I heard it might be some kind of treasure."

In Yuàn zhōng, that Iron Peak Tribe member, Tianlin, and Miao Qianqian chatted idly.

When asked why the three had fallen into a deep sleep, Tianlin naturally answered truthfully: they'd gotten drunk.

As for what kind of wine they'd drunk, Tianlin didn't know.

Originally, those two weren't even qualified to sit at the table; if not for basking in Ye Zhangqing's glory, they wouldn't have gotten even that one cup.

Seeing Tianling's doubtful shake of the head, that Iron Peak Tribe member was also helpless.

That Clan Chief definitely has treasures on him; a Clan Chief of junk would certainly not look down on them.

But this wine's aftereffect is just too strong—three days later and they're still drunk.

I thought we'd be able to eat something hot in these two days, but three days have passed and Ye Zhangqing still hasn't woken, so that tribe member naturally hasn't eaten anything.

But for now, all we can do is wait.

At the same time, not only Tianlin and Miao Qianqian were anxious, but the two elders who harbored killing intent toward Ye Zhangqing were also frantic.

They almost daily sent people to inquire about Ye Zhangqing's condition, waiting for a chance to go themselves.

But each time the reply was that he was still in a deep sleep, with no sign of waking yet.

Regarding this, the two elders were both helpless and anxious.

"What on earth is wrong with this Human Race kid? Five days and he still hasn't woken—could it be that the Clan Chief punished him too severely?"

"If you ask me, we might as well just kill him outright—what's the point of clinging to a breath?"

"Do you think the Clan Chief isn't deliberately tormenting this kid?"

"That shouldn't be the case; the Clan Chief doesn't have such a hobby—killing is just a cut to the neck, why torture people?"

In their minds, various speculations arose, and for a moment they both felt the Clan Chief might be going too far.

They merely wanted to kill him, yet the Clan Chief had reduced him to a state worse than death, which is truly somewhat cruel.

Looking at it this way, the two seem to be somewhat better off.

After another two days, Ye Zhangqing finally woke up and opened his eyes.

His body felt no discomfort from prolonged sleep; instead, he felt refreshed and invigorated, extremely comfortable.

Upon deeper sensing, Ye Zhangqing discovered that his cultivation had inexplicably broken through.

"Just a few bowls of liquor and I broke through directly?"

You know, although Ye Zhangqing's cultivation isn't considered high within the Barbarian God Tribe, that's just an overall comparison; among his peers, it's definitely not low.

In the Ancient Immortal Realm, wanting to break through is naturally not a simple matter.

Various heavenly treasures that could let an Ancient Immortal Realm cultivator break through directly are absolutely rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns, belonging to true peerless treasures.

Moreover, Ye Zhangqing broke through while in a deep sleep, which further shows how precious that jar of fine wine is.

He called up the system interface.

Good Review Points remained unchanged, but his cultivation rose from Ancient Immortal Realm Minor Accomplishment to the Great Accomplishment realm.

After five days of deep sleep, his cultivation rose directly by a minor stage—this gain is certainly not small.

Just as Ye Zhangqing was getting familiar with his cultivation breakthrough, the door was opened and Tianlin pushed it open and walked in.

Seeing Ye Zhangqing awake, he immediately exclaimed happily.

"Zhangqing, you're awake."

"Hmm."

Upon hearing that, Ye Zhangqing smiled and nodded slightly. Although earlier examination showed Ye Zhangqing had no problem, he still hadn't woken up, so Tianlin naturally couldn't help but worry.

Now that the person is awake, that's good.

Immediately, Miao Qianqian and that Iron Peak Tribe member also heard the news and rushed over.

However, the most excited one was undoubtedly that Iron Peak Tribe member.

Five days, exactly five days, he had been attending to him tirelessly, just hoping to earn a meal.

Who would have thought that Ye Zhangqing would sleep for five whole days? Now that he finally woke up with difficulty, in the eyes of that Iron Peak Tribe member, it was as if he saw plate after plate of delicious food beckoning to him.

Ye Zhangqing has awakened; is eating still far off? Obviously not.

So how could that Iron Peak Tribe member not be excited?

Looking at this tribe member whose speech was somewhat stammering, Ye Zhangqing also gave a helpless, wry smile.

"These days, thank you, senior, for taking care of me. Let's stay tonight and have a simple meal together, so I can express my gratitude."

"Good, good, good."

In his excitement, he forgot all courtesy, nodding repeatedly, tears of excitement streaming from the corners of his mouth.

Five days, exactly five days, he had been waiting for these words, and now he finally got them.
