But after a pause, Luo Mengxuan continued, "However, killing Gao Dongguang was not something I could do alone. Without my junior brother's help, I could only repel Gao Dongguang at most, and there was absolutely no possibility of killing him."

Upon hearing this, Gao Dongming immediately looked at Ye Feng and exclaimed, "Truly a promising young man! There's a reason why the Xuanji Sect has become such a prestigious sect!"

In response to Gao Dongming's praise, Ye Feng simply nodded slightly, his expression remaining unchanged.

It was already dark.

Gao Dongming then said, "Luo girl, Mr. Ye, why don't you stay at my residence for the night and leave tomorrow? It's already dark, and we can't let you travel at night."

Luo Mengxuan did not agree immediately. Instead, she looked at Ye Feng and transmitted her thoughts to him: "Junior Brother Ye, how about we stay at the Gao family's place for the night? I had a fierce battle with Gao Dongguang and used up a lot of my true energy. I am indeed a bit tired now."

To be honest, Ye Feng didn't want to spend the night at the Gao family's house.

He also wanted to return to the Xuanji Sect as soon as possible to exchange for the Honghu Spiritual Root at the Treasure Hall!

With the main ingredient, the Swan Spirit Root, Ye Feng can now refine the Orchid Star Swan Pill.

In this way, Ye Feng can advance from the peak of the True Essence Realm to the peak of the Divine Travel Realm, and his strength will be restored by a large margin!

However, Luo Mengxuan's expression did reveal a sense of exhaustion, so Ye Feng considered it for a moment and finally nodded.

Seeing that Ye Feng agreed, Luo Mengxuan immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you very much, Grandpa Gao," Luo Mengxuan said with a smile.

Gao Dongming quickly summoned the housekeeper and arranged two excellent rooms for Luo Mengxuan and Ye Feng.

Gao Dongming also arranged a lavish banquet to entertain Luo Mengxuan and Ye Feng.

There's no reason not to take advantage of a free meal, so Ye Feng and Luo Mengxuan attended the banquet together and enjoyed a delicious meal.

It was already late at night.

Ye Feng was meditating and practicing in his room.

Suddenly, a light footstep sound came from behind.

Sensing a familiar presence emanating from the corridor outside, Ye Feng knew that the person who had come was Luo Mengxuan.

Sure enough, after the knocking, Luo Mengxuan's voice came from outside the door.

"Junior brother, are you asleep?"

"Not yet, Senior Sister, is there something you need?" Ye Feng asked.

"I can't sleep and I want to talk to you. Can I come in?" Luo Mengxuan asked again.

"Come in, Senior Sister," Ye Feng said.

Luo Mengxuan then pushed open the door and entered the room. After entering, she casually set up a barrier to separate the inside from the outside, in order to prevent others from spying on her.

Upon arriving, Luo Mengxuan sat down on the edge of Ye Feng's bed and looked at him with curiosity.

"Junior brother, what martial arts technique did you use to search the memories of the Gao family's descendants today?" Luo Mengxuan asked.

“It’s a soul-searching technique,” ​​Night Wind replied.

"Isn't the method of soul searching supposed to cause irreversible damage to the brain? Why did those people seem unharmed after you searched their souls?" Luo Mengxuan asked again.

"That's because my technique is superb and skillful," Ye Feng laughed.

Ye Feng wasn't bragging; his current soul-searching technique is indeed very skillful and ingenious.

Ye Feng has just mastered the Demonic Sect's Soul Searching Technique. Searching a person's soul will definitely damage their brain.

However, as time went on, Ye Feng used the Soul Searching Technique more and more often, and his own strength also grew stronger, so his understanding of the Soul Searching Technique became deeper and deeper.

Now, when Ye Feng uses his soul-searching technique on people, it generally won't cause them too much serious harm.

But this is on the premise that the other party does not resist.

If the other party does not want to be subjected to the Night Wind Soul Search and resists desperately during the search, the forced soul search will still cause serious and irreversible damage to that person.

The soul-searching performed on the Gao family members by the night wind tonight is the former situation.

Those high-priced individuals were weak and unable to resist Ye Feng's true energy suppression. Being unable to resist was essentially equivalent to cooperating with Ye Feng.

Therefore, Ye Feng's Soul Searching Technique did not cause them much harm.

If they are strong enough to resist Ye Feng to some extent, then Ye Feng's violent soul search will definitely damage their brains.

"Junior brother, I never expected you to have mastered the first five forms of the Sky-Piercing Star Sword Technique. To be honest, I'm quite surprised," Luo Mengxuan said with a smile, her beautiful eyes fixed on Ye Feng.

Ye Feng calmly said, "Senior Sister, it's not surprising that I've mastered the Sky-Piercing Star Sword Technique."

"Not surprising? Are you kidding me? Out of all the people in our sect, how many have mastered the fifth form of the Sky-Piercing Star Sword Technique?"

"It's just you and the Grand Elder!"

"If the news spreads that you have mastered the fifth form of the Sky-Piercing Star Sword Technique, it will definitely cause a huge uproar in our sect, and the Grand Elder will surely take you as his disciple!"

Luo Mengxuan said earnestly, and then moved closer to Ye Feng.

"That's an exaggeration, that's an exaggeration." Ye Feng chuckled.

“It’s not an exaggeration at all, I’m telling the truth.” Luo Mengxuan shook her head vigorously.

Immediately afterwards, Luo Mengxuan asked, "Junior Brother Ye, are you currently at the peak of the True Essence Realm?"

“Yes.” Night Breeze nodded.

"When we met in the Spirit Garden at the foot of Qingyao Peak, you were still at the peak of the Qi Movement Realm. Now, only a little over a month has passed, and you have advanced from the peak of the Qi Movement Realm to the peak of the Separation and Union Realm, and then from the peak of the Separation and Union Realm to the peak of the True Essence Realm. Junior Brother, how exactly did you cultivate?" Luo Mengxuan asked curiously.

A hint of embarrassment appeared on Ye Feng's face.

"Senior sister, please don't ask anymore. I can't answer that question for you. Besides, everyone has their own secrets, so please don't keep digging into my secrets," Ye Feng said.

"You can ask me too. If you ask me, I definitely won't hide anything from you," Luo Mengxuan said, tilting her head.

“I have no interest in your secrets,” Night Wind shook his head.

Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, Luo Mengxuan's expression froze, and a deep disappointment appeared between her brows.

Night Wind knew he had said the wrong thing, but the words were already out and there was no going back.

Ye Feng said decisively, "Senior Sister, it's getting late. You should go back and rest early. We'll set off back to the sect first thing tomorrow morning."

"All right."

Luo Mengxuan stood up, gave Ye Feng a resentful look, and finally walked towards the door.

After Luo Mengxuan left, Ye Feng lay down on the bed.

Could it be that Luo Mengxuan has taken a liking to me?

Could it be that her attitude towards him has really changed because he pleaded for her in front of Elder Lingxing?

This is really a difficult situation.

Night Breeze, lost in thought, soon drifted off to sleep.

The next morning, Ye Feng and Luo Mengxuan bid farewell to Gao Dongming and returned to the Xuanji Sect on auspicious five-colored clouds.
