As soon as the lights were turned off, the room became pitch black.
However, apart from the Spirit Gathering Technique, which allows him to nurture spiritual flowers and herbs, Ye Feng, who was only at the Foundation Establishment stage, had not mastered any other spells. Therefore, he could only stumble and grope his way to bed in the dark. Just as he lay down, he heard a shout from an outer disciple outside: "Ye Feng, come out!"
Ye Feng didn't know why the outer sect disciple was calling him, but he just wanted to get out of there as soon as possible.
He quickly got out of bed, grabbed his shoes, and ran outside while putting them on. He had just run out of the room in the dark when he tripped and fell with a thud.
"You are Ye Feng?"
A very pleasant woman's voice reached the ears of the night wind.
Ye Feng got up, wiped the mud off his face, and was about to answer when the outer disciple next to him excitedly answered for him, "Yes, Elder Lingxiu, this is the servant Ye Feng you are looking for!"
By the light of the moon, Ye Feng finally saw a Taoist nun standing in the air, dressed in a gray robe with a sword at her waist.
Leaping through the air!
Only those who reach the fourth level of the Spiritual Void stage can walk in the air as if their feet were firmly planted on the ground!
Is this Taoist nun an elder? The renowned Lingxiu Elder of Yuheng Peak, the sect leader's junior sister?
It is said that she is over 560 years old. Although she looks as beautiful as a flower, like an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl, she is actually older than Elder Ziyun, whose face is full of wrinkles!
Ye Feng was admiring the legendary Elder Lingxiu, while Elder Lingxiu was also sizing up Ye Feng. Seeing that Ye Feng was quite handsome, but had a dull and simple-minded look, she couldn't help but smile.
What a fool!
"Ahem... Servant Ye Feng, I am here on the orders of the sect leader to serve you. Do you have anything to say?" Elder Lingxiu asked with a serious expression.
The night wind shook its head at lightning speed.
"It's good that you have nothing to say."
Elder Lingxiu nodded in satisfaction, but inwardly he was furious. This fool is too stupid! Doesn't he know how to ask for credit or negotiate? No wonder that old codger Ziyun makes him work so well and so diligently!
She pulled out a packet of seeds from somewhere, tossed it in front of Ye Feng, and said, "Servant Ye Feng, this elder is giving you a packet of Jade Eye Flower seeds. In three months, this elder will see at least one hundred mid-grade... no, high-grade Jade Eye Flowers. Do you understand?"
Before Ye Feng could answer, the outer disciple preemptively replied, "Elder, don't worry, he understands!"
Elder Lingxiu nodded again, indicating that he was very satisfied.
Looking at Ye Feng, who had a large bag of flower seeds in his hand and a serious expression on his face, she suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
If word got out that I was abusing my servant, would I ask a Foundation Establishment stage servant to cultivate one hundred top-grade Jade Eye Flowers within three months?
And this servant is only twelve years old...
After a moment's hesitation, Elder Lingxiu spoke up: "Servant Yefeng, is there anything you wish to ask?"
The unspoken message in her words was, "Do you have any requests? Or do you need any help? If so, hurry up and say it, or you'll miss your chance once this elder leaves!"
Before Ye Feng could even open his mouth, an outer disciple beside him interjected, "Elder, he has nothing to ask!"
"Shut up! Did I tell you to speak?!"
Elder Lingxiu glared fiercely at the outer disciple, who immediately trembled with fear, knelt on the ground with a thud, and dared not utter another word.
Holding the flower seeds, Ye Feng hesitated for a long time before finally looking up and saying, "Elder Lingxiu, I do have a question I'd like to ask..."
There are definitely requirements!
Indeed, this task is far too demanding... Elder Lingxiu chuckled inwardly.
"Then tell me about it," Elder Lingxiu nodded.
The outer disciples kneeling on the ground nearby pricked up their ears, and the servants in the room held their breath, waiting for Ye Feng to speak.
What does this kid want to ask?
Could this silly girl have offended Elder Lingxiu?
Ye Feng looked embarrassed and hesitated for a long time before finally asking, "Elder Lingxiu, are you really over five hundred years old?"
At that moment, the surrounding air froze.
The outer disciples kneeling on the ground were terrified, and the dozens of servants in the room were stunned.
This fool, how dare he ask such a reckless question? Isn't he afraid of angering Elder Lingxiu? Isn't he afraid of being killed by Elder Lingxiu's sword?
Although Elder Lingxiu sometimes seems crazy and like a loud and boisterous girl, she has a resounding title in the Changsheng Sect—no, in the entire Yunzhou—the Extinction Sword!
Elder Lingxiu, who possesses the name of the Extinction Sword, can kill a servant with ease. What difference is there between him and crushing an ant?
The outer disciples knelt on the ground, trembling. The servants in the room didn't dare to breathe. The entire area around the house was quiet, without a sound, eerily silent!
Why...why are you asking this?
Elder Lingxiu, who was walking in mid-air, clenched her fists, her shoulders trembled, her pretty face turned ashen, and the corners of her mouth twitched wildly.
Ye Feng, however, seemed oblivious to the impending danger. He touched his nose and said woodenly, "Elder Lingxiu, I just find it strange that Elder Ziyun, who is over four hundred years old, is already so old, with wrinkles all over her face and white hair and eyebrows, while you, who are over five hundred years old, are so young and so... so beautiful, like a young woman. Why is that?"
When the word "good-looking" was mentioned, Ye Feng blushed slightly.
He wasn't flattering her; Elder Lingxiu was indeed quite beautiful. Although her hair was a bit messy and her gray robe was extremely simple, her face was delicate and charming, like a ripe apple, making Ye Feng want to take a bite.
Of course, he absolutely doesn't have the guts or the ability.
Elder Lingxiu, who was standing in the air, was originally filled with anger and wished she could kill this reckless little fool with a sword, but now that she heard him say this, all her anger disappeared.
She curled the corners of her lips and said smugly, "Of course I'm more handsome than that old scoundrel Ziyun. This proves that I have the art of preserving my youth and the secret to longevity!"
"Could it be that a cultivator's appearance has nothing to do with their age?" Ye Feng became even more curious.
Elder Lingxiu chuckled and then tossed her hair with a smug look: "It has nothing to do with actual age. You wouldn't understand even if I told you now. You just need to know the four words 'appearance reflects the heart.'"
As soon as Elder Lingxiu finished speaking, she turned around and shot into the sky with a whoosh.
After passing Jade Peak, she turned back to look at the servants' quarters, which had shrunk to the size of a matchbox, and chuckled, "This elder is good-looking, hehe, this is the first time in all these years that someone has told me I'm good-looking, hehehehe..."
The outer disciple got up from the ground, casually cast a cleansing spell to remove the dust from his body, and then looked at Ye Feng with annoyance, saying, "Are you an idiot or a moron? Do you know that you just walked through the gates of hell? You almost killed me!"
