Let's leave aside the matters within the sect for now.
Ye Feng has now left the territory of the Qingyun Sect and arrived at a market town for independent cultivators, located at the border with the Luoshui Sect.
"Waiter! Bring me the best wine and food!"
"Alright, please wait a moment, sir!"
This was Ye Feng's first time leaving the Qingyun Sect's territory, and he looked at the guests in the inn with curiosity.
Each of them, wielding swords and carrying knives, looked as if they had stepped into a martial arts drama.
He himself joined in the shouting.
However, most of these people were only at the fifth to eighth level of Qi Refining, and even his divine sense scan couldn't detect them at all.
When the people in the room saw him enter, speaking loudly, their conversations quieted down considerably.
In no time, the waiter brought the dishes over.
There was fish, meat, vegetables, bamboo shoots, soup, and rice.
It looks pretty good.
"Wait a minute, waiter, could you tell me what's been going on around here lately?"
Ye Feng took out a spirit crystal and tossed it over.
The waiter was also a cultivator at the second level of Qi Refining. He accepted the spirit crystal with a delighted expression.
He then told Ye Feng about the recent major events.
First, Hu Dahai, who was cultivating alone on Langya Mountain and had reached the eighth level of Qi Refining, encountered trouble.
Secondly, the local administrators, the Zhang family, a Foundation Establishment clan, have welcomed a new young master.
Thirdly, the price of medicinal pills has recently increased.
Fourth, things are not peaceful outside the market; the Second Elder of the Zhang family is organizing a patrol team.
There were quite a few customers in the shop. Although the waiter had taken the money, he couldn't say much. He could only chat briefly with Ye Feng before taking his leave.
A Foundation Establishment cultivator can build a family that lasts for a hundred years, ruling over a territory of about fifty miles... Of course, this also depends on the abundance of spiritual energy.
If there were a level-one spiritual vein, it would probably take eight or ten Foundation Establishment cultivators to protect it.
Generally, one or two Foundation Establishment cultivators will choose locations that are mostly scattered spiritual veins.
Don't be fooled by the fact that the spiritual veins are scattered and not conducive to improving strength.
However, as long as the reach is wide enough, cultivating spiritual fields can also yield considerable resources.
Moreover, they are less likely to be resented or robbed.
It seems Kou Ying has a grandfather who is at the ninth level of Qi Refining. I wonder how she lives at home.
But her home is in the West, so I'll visit her when I get back...
Ye Feng quickly finished the food on the table.
Although the spiritual energy wasn't as plentiful as what the sect provided, the dishes were quite varied, with many more seasonings, and very much to my liking.
The bill came to 70 spirit stones.
After finishing his meal, Ye Feng strolled around the Dan Pavilion in the market area again.
This place isn't far from the Qingyun Sect, which is famous for its spiritual herbs. Although the price of pills has increased slightly, it's not by much.
Moreover, it's just a small market town with limited capacity. To sell the medicinal herbs for a good price, they'll probably have to continue eastward.
The best option is to take a flying vessel from the city of Luoshuizong to the east.
Ye Feng was filled with longing for the Dongliu Islands, where chambers of commerce were everywhere. So many large chambers of commerce must be very wealthy.
And there are definitely a lot of good things...
The key thing is that the most important thing I need for this trip is the Golden Elixir!
It would be best to bring back ten or eight to prepare for Qinghe...
———
At this moment, Li Qinghe stood somewhat blankly in the main hall of Qingxue Peak, looking at the sect leader, the sect's patriarch, and the Great Gentleman Dafang.
"Besides that amulet, do you really have no other way to contact Ye Feng?"
"No... but he told me that the training missions won't take us too far, just within the Qing Kingdom... there are only so many sect training missions, so they should be easy to find!"
Li Qinghe never expected that the amulet she gave to Ye Feng had already been given to the old man in his family.
Aside from the back door of the inner sect token, she couldn't think of any other way to find Ye Feng.
But... has this kid broken some heavenly law? Even the Nascent Soul ancestor of the sect, who rarely appears in public, is looking for him.
"Sect Master, Ancestor, I am Ye Feng's master. Whatever happens to him is my responsibility. I will take full responsibility. There is no need to specifically seek him out..."
The two men glanced at her, then shook their heads and sighed.
"Qinghe, are you sure Ye Feng came out of the Ancestral Master's Gate in half a day? And Liao Wen came out last?"
"I'm sure! Because..."
At this point, Li Qinghe blushed.
"Why?"
"Great True Lord asked anxiously,"
"Because...when he came out, he saw me...and we even...talked..."
Having obtained no useful information, and considering that Ye Feng had managed to emerge from the checkpoint in just half a day, the two sighed again.
Suddenly, the Great Gentleman of the Great Realm seemed to realize something and turned his gaze to the Immortal of the Twilight Snow.
"What did Ye Feng say when he went through the 'Question of the Heart'? Did he have any worries while he was away?"
Master Muxue was taken aback, and then recounted in detail the scene of Ye Feng's experience of questioning his heart.
Upon hearing this, the Great Gentleman's eyes lit up.
"Does Ye Feng have a lover outside? Yes, yes, that must be it, investigate quickly!"
"impossible!"
Li Qinghe suddenly stood up and shouted, stunning everyone.
Then, the group exchanged glances and instantly realized what was going on.
"Qinghe, you two... now..."
"Sect Master, Ancestor, I don't know why you're so determined to find Ye Feng, but he'll definitely return after his training. His only family member is still in the sect helping him manage the Pill Pavilion; he can't possibly have run away."
Li Qinghe said seriously.
They all understood this principle, but they were still worried that something might happen to this lively character from their sect...
A genius whose talent rivals that of the Qingyun Ancestor... no, ten times that of the Ancestor.
Now he has no protective gear and no guardian, just wandering around aimlessly... How can I not worry?
Moreover, having cultivated the Lieyuan Technique to the fifth level, one can naturally bear the power of the Azure Cloud Sect, serving as the heart of the sword formation, enabling combat against opponents of higher levels.
It can be said that Ye Feng is the strongest guarantee for the Qingyun Sect to continue to stand for a thousand years... or even go further.
How can I not worry?
The two explained the confidentiality terms and left Qingxue Peak.
"This is my fault. Ye Feng's talent for cultivating magic was actually foreshadowed long ago..."
Qingsong said somewhat apologetically,
"Sigh... It's my fault, it's all my fault...."
Dafang was so angry he beat his feet and pounded his chest in frustration.
In order to watch Liao Wen practice his shield technique, he completely ignored the message sent by the array spirit.
He had guarded the library for decades, never missing a single piece of information, yet...
"I think we should still send someone to Kou Ying's place, and we also need to reinvestigate the Ouyang family... Also, Qinghe is almost at the Core Formation stage, so when we go to the Hunyuan Sect next year, we should take her with us!"
Qingsong was taken aback. Li Qinghe was only at the eighth level of Foundation Establishment; it would take at least ten or twenty years for her to form her Core Formation...
However, he didn't say much, but nodded.
———
Ye Feng rested at an inn in the market that night.
The next morning, Ye Feng bought some more spiritual food and stored it in his system space.
Although the system space is only one cubic meter, the space inside is in a state of absolute stillness.
The storage bag, although it also contains a ring-like space, has the same flow of time.
Therefore, Ye Feng's important things are stored in the system space.
I originally wanted to buy a good flying sword, but the most they sell here are high-grade magic weapons.
In his hands, there wasn't much difference between high-grade and mid-grade, so he gave up the idea.
Let's wait until we get to the main city of Luoshui Sect before we go take a look.
Upon leaving the market, Ye Feng did not immediately summon his flying sword.
Instead, they traveled at the speed of a normal seventh-level Qi Refining cultivator.
After all, there are still packages to receive later...
