Qi Yu glanced at him hesitantly.
Venerable Broken Moon actually knew the name of the hairpin "Spring Breeze Brushing the Railing"...
Hua Nongying did mention that this hairpin was a gift from an old friend with whom she had fallen out, and that Venerable Poyue happened to be a weapon refiner...
Could it be that this hairpin, symbolizing spring breezes, was given to Hua Nongying by Venerable Broken Moon?
It's so exquisitely crafted, it's practically comparable to a divine artifact...
The relationship between these two is not simple.
Is he questioning her like this now because she said in the secret realm that her master had passed away?
Did he think she was referring to Hua Nongying?
Qi Yu carefully replied, "This was a gift from my master."
The teachers and instructors at the Spirit Academy are also considered masters!
Upon hearing this, Venerable Broken Moon seemed to instantly slump down.
His straight back hunched slightly as he murmured, "And what about her now..."
“However…” Qi Yu added, “My master is still alive.”
She chuckled and said, "I have a lot of mentors."
Venerable Broken Moon: "..."
Overwhelmed with grief and joy, he somewhat lost his composure and tightly gripped Qi Yu's hand, asking, "Is she alright?"
Qi Yu: "It should be said that it is excellent, but if the Venerable One wanted to know this, couldn't he have simply asked around? Why did he have to come and ask me so cautiously?"
Venerable Poyue pursed his lips, about to speak, when he suddenly flung his hand away as if he had been electrocuted.
He clutched his hand in surprise, looking at Qi Yu with disbelief and uncertainty. "What did you just do?"
Qi Yu looked back blankly, rubbed her hand which was a little sore from being gripped, and asked, "What did I do?"
Venerable Poyue frowned, looking around but finding nothing amiss.
But just now, a force clearly pushed his hand away.
He took out a magical artifact resembling a die from his sleeve and poured spiritual power into it.
The dice artifact wobbled a few times in the air and stopped on the "six" side. However, the moment the answer was given, the artifact seemed unable to withstand the pressure and suddenly turned into dust!
Venerable Poyue stood in front of Qi Yu as if facing a formidable enemy, and said in a deep voice, "What is your purpose in visiting the Flying Star Sect so late at night?"
Qi Yu frowned, and with a flick of his right hand, summoned the Compassionate Sword.
Venerable Poyue was a cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage; to have him look so solemn, almost panicked...
Is it the Refinement of Emptiness stage or the Integration stage?
Nowadays, spiritual energy is scarce in the cultivation world, and even a Nascent Soul stage cultivator like Venerable Poyue is extremely rare.
Who is that person?
Qi Yu's hands were sweating as she racked her brains for a solution.
After a long silence, Venerable Poyue said in a deep voice, "Your Excellency, those who can reach your level of cultivation can be counted on one hand in the cultivation world. Flying Star Sect has the ability to find out who you are."
Before Venerable Broken Moon could speak further, a soft laugh came from an unknown direction.
"Oh……"
"I'd like to see if you can find out who I am."
Venerable Poyue's expression changed: "!"
Qi Yu's expression also changed: "?"
Nothing more.
Isn't that Feng Xiao's voice?!
How come he came out of the space again without saying a word!
It scared her half to death!
Venerable Poyue looked even more nervous. Suddenly, a communication jade talisman appeared in his hand. Qi Yu glanced at it and saw that he was sending a message to the sect leader.
In her panic, she knocked the communication jade talisman away and frantically called Feng Xiao in her mind, telling him not to cause trouble.
Venerable Poyue turned around to look at Qi Yu in disbelief, as if questioning her about what she was doing.
Qi Yu chuckled dryly and whispered, "My hand slipped, my hand slipped."
She continued frantically calling out to Feng Xiao in her mind, "Feng Xiao, I know you can hear me, please don't cause me any more trouble!!!"
A moment of silence.
The voice spoke again, coldly.
"I simply find your groping and pulling at a woman disgusting; how despicable."
Venerable Broken Moon: "??"
Qi Yu: "..."
"I'm warning you, you despicable person, watch your hands."
The lowly Venerable Poyue: "..."
Qi Yu slowly closed her eyes.
The unsettling aura vanished, and Venerable Broken Moon stood rooted to the spot, unable to recover for a long time.
Qi Yu tentatively poked him, but Venerable Poyue quickly dodged away.
Venerable Poyue slowly said, "Just now, I overstepped my bounds. Now that I know she is safe and sound, I will take my leave. Since she gave you this hairpin, please keep it safe."
Qi Yu scratched his head awkwardly, watching Venerable Po Yue slowly walk away, step by step.
Once she could no longer see Venerable Poyue, she quickly ran back to her little thatched hut, set up a protective barrier, and then slipped into the space.
"Phoenix flute! Phoenix flute!"
She wandered around looking for someone, and finally found Feng Xiao soaking comfortably in the hot spring behind Huayue Tower, completely naked.
"hiss--"
Qi Yu's eyes involuntarily scanned him from head to toe, unconsciously comparing the current Feng Xiao 2.0 adult version with the thin young Feng Xiao from the Netherworld Cold Pool.
As expected, this one is more in line with her aesthetic.
After Qi Yu had seen everything, Feng Xiao slowly pulled a white cloth from the side and covered her up perfunctorily.
Qi Yu: "..."
The half-covered, half-revealed look seems even more alluring.
No, now is not the time to talk about that!
Qi Yu frowned, fixing his gaze on Feng Xiao's face. He was about to question him about why he attacked the elder of the Flying Star Sect when Feng Xiao's slightly flushed face made him a little confused again.
Damn it! Beauty can be a dangerous thing!
Before she could gather her strength to question him again, Feng Xiao stood up from the hot spring, put on a white feather robe, and sighed softly.
"A man and a woman alone in the forest, making out like that, do you know how much it will affect you if word gets out? I'm doing this for your own good."
Qi Yu: "?"
Why does it feel like Fengxiao has reverted to version 1.0?
Qi Yu frowned and asked, "Did you remember something?"
Feng Xiao said, "No."
Qi Yu looked at him suspiciously, then suddenly said, "You're not jealous because you don't like other people touching me, are you?"
Feng Xiao remained expressionless and said, "No."
Qi Yu touched her chin, feeling that Feng Xiao had become very strange ever since she revealed her true face.
“That was an elder of our sect. He was asking me some questions and got a little emotional. If he suspects that I brought an unknown person with extraordinary strength into the sect, then I can forget about staying in the Flying Star Sect.”
Qi Yu warned, "So you'd better not act rashly, or if you do, don't let others know about our relationship, understand?"
Feng Xiao didn't answer. Instead, she transformed into a magnificent phoenix and gracefully flew to a branch, appearing as if she refused to reply.
Qi Yu stared at him speechlessly, deeply suspecting that Feng Xiao suffered from dissociative identity disorder.
Fengxiao outwardly preened its feathers with its beak, but inwardly it was wavering.
