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...
"What's possible?" Qiu Miaozhen asked, puzzled.
"That is... never mind, I won't tell you for now. Bring him here sometime, I want to talk to him," Nan Lingrong said.
Seeing her master hesitate and then change his mind, Qiu Miaozhen was very puzzled.
Could it be that Junior Brother Ye has some secret that his master has discovered?
Qiu Miaozhen pondered this in her heart, but couldn't come up with a solution.
At the same moment, in Danfang.
Wang Tianyi emerged from the secret room with a slightly joyful smile on her face.
"Master, you've finally come out," Wang Geling said hurriedly.
Wang Tianyi looked at Wang Geling and asked, "What happened? Did something happen while I was in seclusion?"
“You have no idea, Master. Not long after you went into seclusion yesterday at noon, Changtai Peak exploded! Elder Wu Xueyu’s weapon-refining furnace exploded, destroying her cultivation cave and even causing a wildfire on Changtai Peak.”
"All the female disciples who were vandalizing Elder Wu's cultivation cave were injured, and Elder Wu also suffered minor injuries. However, they are all fine now. The six female disciples who were most seriously injured have all been healed by Junior Brother Ye."
"Master, let me tell you something. This morning, Junior Brother Ye was refining pills in our pill workshop, and he successfully refined six Grade 7 spiritual pills—Ice Spirit Protecting Meridian Pills—in just one go! Moreover, Junior Brother Ye broke through to the True Essence Realm during the pill refining process, and he is now a True Essence Realm martial artist!"
Upon hearing what Wang Geling said, Wang Tianyi's beautiful face showed a deep look of surprise.
"That Ye Feng refined six seventh-grade spirit pills, the Ice Spirit Protecting Meridian Pills, in one go? And he even broke through during the pill refining process?" Wang Tianyi asked.
"That's right, absolutely true."
As if afraid that her master wouldn't believe her, Wang Geling added, "Not only was I there, but Senior Sister Qiu, Chen Ruoyu, Gao Mingqi, and Zhao Zhengfeng were also there. They all saw it."
A hint of suspicion appeared on Wang Tianyi's face.
Then Wang Tianyi took out a communication talisman and sent it out.
The message talisman transformed into a golden light and flew towards the Lingyu Palace on Immortal Spirit Island, quickly disappearing from sight.
However, not long after, a golden light flew back.
Wang Tianyi grasped the communication talisman, a thoughtful expression on her face.
"What's wrong, Master?" Wang Geling asked.
"Ye Feng's alchemy skills are too amazing, even I can't compare. And I'm now in the Transcendent Realm, do you know what that means?"
"I have been immersed in the Dao of Alchemy for hundreds of years, yet I am no match for a mere novice. This is truly strange... There is definitely more to Ye Feng than meets the eye!"
Wang Tianyi spoke slowly, her expression still somewhat solemn.
Wang Geling asked, "Could it be that Junior Brother was born with knowledge?"
"What do you mean by being born with knowledge?" Wang Tianyi asked, puzzled.
Wang Geling explained with a smile, "It's just a rumor circulating in the city and countryside that some geniuses are born with profound knowledge of astronomy and geography, possessing extremely broad knowledge and wisdom."
"Nonsense! There's no such thing as someone born with innate knowledge!"
Wang Tianyi said emphatically, giving Wang Geling a disapproving glare.
Then, Wang Tianyi continued, "This Ye Feng is making me more and more curious. Ge Ling, bring Ye Feng to see me tomorrow. I need to have a more in-depth conversation with him!"
"Yes, Master."
Wang Geling nodded vigorously.
After Ye Feng returned to his residence, Jiang Lingxuan and Sun Muqing ran up to him and asked him questions.
Since the two women were so curious, Ye Feng Zi'an couldn't hide anything from them and explained the whole story to them from the beginning.
After hearing this, Jiang Lingxuan laughed and said, "That Elder Wu Xueyu is really unlucky."
"Yes, my own cultivation cave was blown up, and I was even injured," Sun Muqing said with a smile.
Ye Feng didn't say much, but sat down at the table and poured himself a cup of tea.
Jiang Lingxuan asked in confusion, "Ye Feng, what's wrong? Is something bothering you?"
"It's nothing serious."
Ye Feng shook his head before continuing, "Today I refined Ice Spirit Protective Pills in the Pill Workshop, six pills in one batch, which is beyond the limit that ordinary alchemists can achieve. Although I used the breakthrough in my cultivation level to cover it up and deceived Qiu Miaozhen, Wang Geling and others, they will most likely tell Elder Wang Tianyi or even Sect Master Nan Lingrong about it."
"And those two will definitely notice something's wrong, and they might even start to suspect me because of it."
Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, both Jiang Lingxuan and Sun Muqing's expressions changed slightly.
"What should we do then?" Jiang Lingxuan asked.
Night Breeze sighed and said, "I'm trying to figure something out, aren't I?"
Sun Muqing walked over and sat down next to Ye Feng, saying seriously, "Ye Feng, maybe you're just overthinking things and being too cautious."
"No, you underestimate the elders and sect leader of the Spirit Water Sect. They can manage such a large sect; they're definitely not stupid. They'll definitely be suspicious," Ye Feng said with certainty.
Jiang Lingxuan then said, "That's no big deal. At worst, we can leave. Anyway, Nan Lingrong is no match for you. Even if she and the other elders join forces, they can't stop us."
"That's true, but if we leave now, all our previous efforts will have been in vain," Ye Feng said with a wry smile.
It's like whatever you say comes true.
As soon as Ye Feng finished speaking, his token began to tremble.
Ye Feng took out the token and infused it with his true energy, and Wang Geling's voice immediately came out from it.
"Junior Brother Ye, come to the Pill Workshop early tomorrow morning," Wang Geling said.
"Is there something you need?" Night Wind asked.
Wang Geling said with a smile, "I told my master about your refining of the Ice Spirit Protective Pulse Pill today. My master was very surprised and even frightened by you. My master said that your pill refining skills are very high and she needs to have an in-depth discussion with you."
Upon hearing Wang Geling's words, Jiang Lingxuan and Sun Muqing knew that what Ye Feng had just said was true.
"Night Breeze was indeed very prescient," Jiang Lingxuan and Sun Muqing thought together.
After a moment of silence, Ye Feng said, "Okay, I understand. I'll go there earlier tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll be waiting for you at the alchemy workshop," Wang Geling said with a smile.
After ending the communication, Ye Feng put away the token.
"See? Elder Wang Tianyi of the Pill Workshop has indeed become suspicious of me," Ye Feng said.
Jiang Lingxuan and Sun Muqing didn't know what to say for a moment, so they both shut their mouths and remained silent.
Night Breeze, however, began to ponder seriously.
I don't know how much time has passed, but suddenly Ye Feng's eyes lit up.
"Show me the alchemy manual," Ye Feng said.
Jiang Lingxuan immediately took the pill manual out of her storage ring and handed it to Ye Feng.
