Three years ago, a group of mysterious people annihilated the Ye family. He survived by luck but was thrown into prison, where by chance, he became the disciple of five masters...
Three years...
On the way, the night wind remained silent, and Luo Mengxuan also kept quiet.
But she would occasionally glance at the night breeze.
Luo Mengxuan looked hesitant, as if she wanted to say something but was too embarrassed to speak.
"Say what you want to say, Senior Sister," Ye Feng said.
Luo Mengxuan hesitated for a moment, then shook her head and said, "It's nothing."
Night Breeze then said no more and quietly closed his eyes to rest.
But at that moment, the colorful auspicious clouds beneath them suddenly trembled, and the ethereal clouds seemed to boil.
Ye Feng suddenly opened his eyes, while Luo Mengxuan's expression changed slightly.
"Is there a problem with the magical artifact?" Ye Feng asked.
"like……"
Luo Mengxuan had only uttered two words when the auspicious five-colored clouds suddenly shrank into a small, multicolored bead and fell to the ground.
Fortunately, both Ye Feng and Luo Mengxuan were martial artists and could fly.
If they were ordinary people, they would have definitely fallen and died.
Ye Feng and Luo Mengxuan flew downwards at high speed and soon landed on the ground.
This is a vast forest, filled with towering trees whose dense canopies almost completely block out the sunlight.
The reason I say "almost" is because there were still scattered rays of sunlight falling from the sky, forming hazy beams of light that shone on the ground.
The forest was full of wild grass and wildflowers, and the air was filled with the fragrance of wildflowers and the faint smell of leaves rotting in the soil.
Meanwhile, Luo Mengxuan's colorful auspicious cloud remained quietly motionless in the grass.
Luo Mengxuan flew over and picked up the bead, examining it from all angles, but couldn't find anything wrong with it.
Night Wind then flew over and stopped in front of Luo Mengxuan.
"Let me see," Night Wind said.
"OK."
Luo Mengxuan nodded and handed the colorful auspicious cloud to Ye Feng.
Ye Feng infused his true energy into the examination, scrutinizing every single detail of the structure.
Half a day later, Ye Feng finally found the problem.
"It's just that one of the formations has been damaged. We only need to repair this formation," Ye Feng said.
"Junior brother, you also know how to forge weapons?" Luo Mengxuan looked at Ye Feng with surprise.
Ye Feng is skilled in alchemy, and his alchemy skills are quite advanced; this is something all the disciples of the Xuanji Sect know.
But the fact that Ye Feng could also forge weapons surprised Luo Mengxuan.
You must understand that a person's energy is limited; if you learn one thing, you won't have enough energy to learn another.
However, Ye Feng knew how to refine pills and forge weapons, which was naturally beyond Luo Mengxuan's expectations.
"I only have a basic understanding," Ye Feng said calmly.
"Junior brother, would you like to help me reforge the spiritual weapon here now, or wait until we return to the sect?" Luo Mengxuan asked.
After a moment's thought, Ye Feng said, "Let's reforge the magical artifact here. It's just a minor issue, and it'll be fixed soon."
"How long is 'soon'?" Luo Mengxuan asked again.
"It won't take more than half an hour," Ye Feng said.
“Alright, let’s refine it here then. I’ll wait for you,” Luo Mengxuan said with a smile.
Ye Feng sat down directly on the ground and took out a refining furnace from his storage ring.
Ye Feng raised his hand and waved it, sending out a burst of true energy that struck the refining furnace, causing the furnace lid to slam open with a bang.
When the night wind tossed the colorful auspicious clouds into the refining furnace, a beam of blazing white flame immediately appeared inside.
The flames roared and burned in the furnace, causing the furnace temperature to rise rapidly.
Once the furnace lid was closed, the flames inside the furnace immediately became even more ferocious.
Ye Feng manipulated his hands with hand seals, controlling everything within the refining furnace, while Luo Mengxuan watched quietly from the side.
Perhaps feeling bored, Luo Mengxuan couldn't help but say, "Junior brother, I never imagined you were both an alchemist and a weapon refiner. You're really amazing."
"But how do you know so much? Who taught you all this? After you joined our Xuanji Sect, you only practiced the Mitian Star Sword. No one taught you alchemy or weapon crafting."
"Junior brother, why aren't you saying anything? Junior brother, you..."
Ye Tian, annoyed, frowned and said, "Senior sister, whether it's alchemy or weapon forging, you need to be single-minded. Please don't bother me."
“Okay.” Luo Mengxuan nodded.
Time passed second by second, and under the refining of the night wind, the damaged formation in the five-colored auspicious clouds in the refining furnace had been repaired.
But before the night breeze could even ignite the furnace, a caravan came from afar and happened to pass by.
This caravan was quite large, consisting of more than twenty wagons, most of which were cargo wagons.
Moreover, there were guards on both sides of the caravan to protect it.
There were more than forty guards in total, led by a middle-aged man with a square face and very strong facial features.
Moreover, each of these guards wore a Cheng character written in a flamboyant style on the back of their uniform.
It's easy to imagine that they were all guards of a certain Cheng family, and this caravan must also belong to that Cheng family.
Upon seeing Ye Feng and Luo Mengxuan, the guards immediately became wary.
But after glancing at Luo Mengxuan a few times, the leading guard suddenly smiled and said, "Miss Luo, what brings you here? Why are you here?"
"You are...you are Chen Zhigang?" Luo Mengxuan asked.
"It is indeed me." Chen Zhigang nodded vigorously.
Then Chen Zhigang shouted to a carriage behind him, "Miss, Miss Luo is here!"
"Which Miss Luo?" A crisp, clear girl's voice came from inside the carriage.
"It's Luo Mengxuan, the eldest daughter of the Luo family in Tianliang City!" Chen Zhigang exclaimed.
A woman in a green dress quickly ran down from the carriage. She lifted her dress and ran towards them with a cheerful step and a bright smile on her face.
"It's you, Cheng Xue. I didn't expect to see you here," Luo Mengxuan said with a smile.
"Mengxuan, what are you doing here? There's no village or shop in sight, what are you doing here?" Cheng Xue came closer, glanced at Ye Feng curiously, and then turned to Luo Mengxuan to ask.
"My junior brother Ye Feng and I just left Tianyuan City and were planning to return to the sect when our magical artifacts broke down halfway there, so we had to repair them here," Luo Mengxuan explained.
"The magical artifact is broken? Can magical artifacts break?" Cheng Xue asked curiously.
Chen Zhigang dismounted and said with a smile, "Miss, magical artifacts are also weapons and tools, so naturally they can break."
"I see," Cheng Xue nodded.
Then Cheng Xue looked at Ye Feng curiously and asked, "Is he your junior brother? His name is Ye Feng?"
“Yes, he is an inner disciple and hasn’t been with our Xuanji Sect for very long,” Luo Mengxuan replied.
Cheng Xue then asked, "He hasn't been a member for very long, yet he's an inner disciple? Did he get in through connections?"
