"He just asked me about you. I told him you had been here once and had mentioned the Swan Spirit Root. Then Senior Brother Wang... exchanged all three Swan Spirit Roots for them."
At this point, Li Yue'e stuck out her tongue shyly.
Night Wind felt both annoyed and quite helpless.
It's only half an hour away.
If I had arrived half an hour earlier, I would have already obtained the swan spirit root!
"Junior Brother Ye, have I caused you any trouble?" Li Yue'e looked at Ye Feng with an embarrassed expression and a hint of guilt.
"It's not your fault, Senior Sister." Ye Feng shook her head.
Li Yue'e then said, "Senior Brother Wang exchanged all the Swan Spirit Roots. Is he deliberately targeting you? Did you offend Senior Brother Wang? Junior Brother Ye, why don't you go find Senior Brother Wang and discuss it with him? Maybe you can get the Swan Spirit Roots from him."
"If all else fails, Junior Brother Ye, just wait patiently. Anyway, there will be a new swan spirit root in three months, and I will contact you as soon as possible."
Since Li Yue'e had already said that, Ye Feng could only nod in agreement.
"Then thank you very much, Senior Sister," Ye Feng said.
"You're welcome, it's my pleasure." Li Yue'e shook her head.
Since there were no rare spirit roots to exchange in the Treasure Hall, Ye Feng saw no reason to stay any longer.
Ye Feng drank the tea that Li Yue'e had brewed for herself in one gulp, then got up to take his leave.
After leaving the Treasure Hall, Ye Feng flew towards Crimson Cloud Peak.
Before long, Ye Feng stood on the summit of Chiyun Peak.
Ahead lies Elder Zhu Yun's cultivation cave. As Elder Zhu Yun's disciple, Wang Binyu is most likely here.
Ye Feng then stepped forward, stood at the entrance of the cultivation cave, and bowed in greeting.
"Senior Brother Wang, Ye Feng requests an audience," Ye Feng announced loudly.
A short while later, Wang Binyu emerged from Elder Zhu Yun's cultivation cave.
Seeing the night breeze arrive, Wang Binyu showed no surprise whatsoever.
"Junior Brother Ye, what brings you here?" Wang Binyu asked.
Ye Feng said seriously, "Senior Brother Wang, I need a Swan Spirit Root, but when I went to the Treasure Hall to exchange for it, Senior Sister Li said that you had already exchanged all three Swan Spirit Roots in the Treasure Hall."
"It was indeed me who exchanged for three Swan Spirit Roots," Wang Binyu nodded.
"Senior brother, what do you need so many swan spirit roots for?" Ye Feng asked.
Wang Binyu said calmly, "I naturally have my uses, so there's no need for you to worry about me, Junior Brother." Wang Binyu shook his head.
Ye Feng sighed and said, "Senior Brother Wang, perhaps you resent me because of what happened last night, but you should know that I was not the one who injured your nephew. I have never done anything to your nephew, and we have no grudges against each other."
Wang Binyu shook his head and said, "Junior Brother Ye, what are you thinking? My exchange for the Swan Spirit Root wasn't aimed at you; I do have my own uses for it."
"So, Senior Brother Wang, you won't even give up a single swan spirit root? If you're willing to give up a swan spirit root, I'm willing to exchange it for double the merit points," Ye Feng said sincerely.
“I’ve already said that I have my own uses for exchanging for the swan spirit root, so how can I exchange it for you? If I give you one, I won’t have enough for myself.”
Wang Binyu shook his head and continued, "Junior Brother Ye, don't worry. The Treasure Hall will have new swan spirit roots in two or three months at most. You can exchange for them then."
It seems there's no point in negotiating.
Wang Binyu was determined not to give up the Honghu Spiritual Root, which meant that Ye Feng's efforts to further treat his injuries and recover his strength would have to be postponed for some time.
But Wang Binyu refused to budge no matter what, and Ye Feng couldn't just snatch it away, at least not here.
"Alright then, I'm sorry to bother you, senior brother."
After saying this, Ye Feng turned and left, flying back the way he came.
Watching the night wind's departing figure, Wang Binyu's expression shifted, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
As the night wind departed from Crimson Cloud Peak and flew for a short while, a figure flew in from afar.
Upon seeing the woman, Ye Feng's face showed a look of confusion.
Because that person was Wen Lingyan, and it seemed that Wen Lingyan had come specifically for Ye Feng.
"Junior Brother Ye, wait a moment," Wen Lingyan called out.
The night wind stopped, and after only a moment, Wen Lingyan flew right in front of him.
"Senior Sister Wen, is there something you need?" Ye Feng asked.
Wen Lingyan smiled and looked Ye Feng up and down before saying, "Chang Qingyue said before that you wanted to learn about mechanisms from me, why didn't you come to me?"
"I've been quite busy lately," Ye Feng said.
"What are you busy with?" Wen Lingyan asked again.
The night wind gave a bitter laugh.
Why is Wen Lingyan so outgoing? Could she have something on her mind?
Night Breeze shook her head and said, "Senior Sister Wen, please don't ask anymore. It's not convenient for me to explain to you."
"What's wrong that you can't explain to me? Why are you being so secretive..."
Wen Lingyan muttered a few words, then said, "You shouldn't be busy right now, right? If you're not busy, then come to my residence, and I'll teach you the art of mechanisms!"
"Well... that's fine too." Ye Feng hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement.
Since he hasn't obtained the Honghu Spirit Root yet, Ye Feng can't refine the Lanxing Honghu Pill to heal his injuries.
Moreover, Zhou Xingjian had already thoroughly understood it, and Ye Feng had nothing else to do.
Since that's the case, why not learn some mechanical arts from Wen Lingyan?
Wen Lingyan's mechanical skills are indeed very ingenious, and it would certainly be a good thing to learn about and master them.
As the old saying goes, it's never a bad thing to have many skills.
The night wind then followed Wen Lingyan, flying towards her residence.
"Junior Brother Ye, it feels like you've become a completely different person after just a few days?" Wen Lingyan said as she flew away.
"Why do you say that? Have I changed in any way?" Night Wind asked.
Wen Lingyan continued, "Of course there have been changes, and quite significant ones at that! Junior Brother Ye, have you broken through to the True Essence Realm?"
Ye Feng has naturally recovered to the True Essence Realm.
Moreover, Ye Feng is now at the peak of the True Yuan Realm, surpassing Wen Lingyan and leaving her far behind!
Ye Feng smiled and nodded, saying, "Senior Sister, your judgment is correct. I have indeed reached the True Essence Realm."
"Which level of the True Essence Realm?" Wen Lingyan asked again.
"Peak of the True Essence Realm," Ye Feng replied.
Wen Lingyan nearly crashed into a nearby mountain peak.
Wen Lingyan stared at Ye Feng in astonishment, shouting incredulously, "Junior Brother Ye, you're not lying to me? You're not joking with me?"
"Senior sister, do you think I'm joking with you?" Ye Feng chuckled.
"Why has your cultivation level improved so quickly? This is illogical! When you first became an inner disciple, you were only at the peak of the Qi Movement Realm. During the sect competition, you reached the peak of the Separation and Union Realm. Now, only a few days later, you have reached the peak of the True Essence Realm? How did you cultivate?"
"Maybe I'm a genius?" Night Wind asked rhetorically.
