Ye Xuan was also quite speechless, “I was feeding the horses here, but these beasts barged in and wanted to snatch the food in the stable.”
No matter if it was a demonic beast, a spiritual beast, or an ordinary animal, they were all protective of their food. This was nature. The horses would not be polite in the face of a sudden intruder.
If it were before, they would be afraid of Thunder beasts. However, things were different now. Ye Xuan’s feeding of the spiritual plants every day had long changed them. It was not an exaggeration to say that they were reborn.
Besides, the Thunder beasts were ferocious when they came, and Ye Xuan wouldn’t let him be. Thus it became the scene everyone saw now, where Thunder was being beaten.
“What nonsense are you talking about?”
Didn’t horses eat grass?
Would the spiritual beast, Thunder, do such a thing?
Everyone’s expression became even more strange. Sun Sihao said fiercely, “I think you’re just making things up. How can a horse defeat a spiritual beast? You must have done something in secret.”
Everyone’s eyes fell on Thunder and then on the horses.
There was nothing special about this horse, except that its fur was a little smoother, its body was strong, and it looked energetic and mighty. It seemed no different from most horses.
In the eyes of mortals, it would be praised as a good horse. However, it was not enough in the eyes of cultivators. Any ordinary spiritual beast could deal with them.
Ye Xuan was a little unhappy with these people’s indiscriminate accusations. He could tell that they were the masters of these spiritual beasts, so he said coldly, “It’s the truth. I can’t do anything if you don’t believe me.”
“You!”
One must know that Alchemy King Gu Xi was greatly respected no matter where he went. Even the sect masters of the great sects had to show him courtesy. And even his disciples were respected.
They thought that coming to Tai Qing Sect was already lowering their status. Even though Shenhai and the others were respectful, it was also a matter of course. However, they never thought that they would encounter a person like Ye Xuan.
“Very good, Tai Qing Sect is powerful. You hurt our spiritual beasts, and now you connive your sect elder’s arrogant words. Is this how you treat your guests?”
After saying that, Sun Sihao looked at Shen Hai and the others.
Such a scene was exactly what they wanted. They couldn’t wait for Ye Xuan and Alchemy King Gu Xi to get into a huge fight and offend them.
“Please calm down. Elder Ye is young and reckless, sohe’s inevitablys insensible. Moreover, the sect master is very fond of him and he’s the head of all the elders.”
Shen Hai seemed to be speaking up for Ye Xuan. But in fact, he was adding oil to the fire, showing that Ye Xuan’s identity was not ordinary, and even they did not dare to offend him.
Sure enough, Alchemy King Gu Xi’s expression darkened, “Hmph, I was wondering how a mere Human Realm level 2 could be so bold. Sosomeone is backingg you up.”
“At such a young age, you are already spouting such nonsense. You said that Thunder ran to the stables on its own. How would they do such a thing? It’s ridiculous.”
“And you still say that it’s food snatching? That’s complete nonsense. We usually feed Thunder with good things. Why would they care about your rotten grass?”
If Gu Xi knew what Ye Xuan was feeding the horses, he would not have been so confident.
Ye Xuan couldn’t help but roll his eyes, “It’s said the spiritual beasts will behave like the master. This is true.”
Seeing that Gu Xi and the rest were about to explode, he continued, “I fed them with spiritual plants.”
Sun Sihao and the others immediately burst into laughter. Their faces were full of contempt.
“What? Did I hear you wrong? You said you were feeding them with spiritual plants. What a joke! Who doesn’t know how difficult it is to raise spiritual plants? You’re feeding them to horses.”
“Spiritual plants have strict requirements for the soil and environment, and they also need spiritual seeds and spiritual dew. Can your Tai Qing Sect provide those things?���
In contrast to Alchemy King Gu Xi’s attitude, the other disciples and elders of the Tai Qing Sect all had strange expressions on their faces.
Thinking back to Ye Xuan’s past actions, it might not be strange for him to do this. After all, he could even use the Water and Fire Talismans as toilet paper, so what else couldn’t he do?
But those were spiritual plants!
Only those with a strong foundation would feed the high-quality spiritual beasts with spiritual plants. After all, good spiritual plants could improve the cultivation and rank of spiritual beasts. Even Gu Xi was reluctant to feed Thunder with the plants.
Shen Hai, Xie Yixuan, and the others wanted to say something but they didn’t. They didn’t believe that Ye Xuan would do that, but the past flashed in their minds, and they were the ones who were slapped in the face every time.
“What’s wrong with feeding the horses? I feel good at this.”
“Don’t tell me that lousy grass can become spiritual plants just by watering it with some spiritual dew, and pouring it with spiritual energy?”
Sun Sihao and the others didn’t believe that Ye Xuan could do such a thing. They thought he was just bragging.
“Even the spiritual plants we have in total are only a dozen jin. If we wait for those in master’s medicine garden to mature, the total would only be close to a hundred.”
Even so, such a quantity and stock were already higher than many aristocratic families and sects. Sun Sihao couldn’t help but show a proud expression. His original intention was to show off.
He didn’t expect to meet a humblebrag.
Hearing this, Ye Xuan couldn’t help but show a sympathetic expression,” Then you guys are pitiful. No wonder the spiritual beasts came to other people’s stables to steal food. It turns out that they can’t get any from you guys.”
Seeing that Sun Sihao and the others’ faces were twisted with anger, Ye Xuan pretended that he didn’t notice it and he continued to add, “Really pitiful!”
