"Brother, how could you do this?" Li Qinghe said, feigning anger.
"I was just asking casually, Jiayi, don't get agitated," Yefeng said.
Liang Jie smiled and said, "Junior Brother Feng, of course you can too. According to our rules, outer disciples can only have one path, inner disciples can have two Daoist partners, core disciples can have three Daoist partners, and true disciples can have four Daoist partners."
"Junior Brother Feng, you've just joined our Tianhua Sect and are only an outer disciple. But you and I are both True Yuan Realm experts, so with your strength, you'll definitely become a core disciple very soon. At that time, having women on both sides won't be a dream!"
“I’m really looking forward to it,” Ye Feng said with a smile.
After Liang Jie and Qian Xuexue spent some time being affectionate, he sent her away with sweet words.
Liang Jie then took Ye Feng and Li Qinghe to register.
The registration process was very troublesome, but with Liang Jie, the top disciple of Tianhua Sect, doing it for them, everything went very smoothly without any obstacles.
After the registration was completed, Ye Feng and Li Qinghe became outer disciples of the Tianhua Sect. Both of them received outer disciple tokens to prove their identities and outer disciple robes.
After Ye Feng and Li Qinghe changed into their robes, Liang Jie said with a smile, "Congratulations, Junior Brother Feng and Junior Sister Wang. From now on, we are family."
"You're too kind, Senior Brother Liang," Ye Feng said.
"I hope Senior Brother Liang will take good care of me in the future," Wang Jiayi added.
Liang Jie chuckled and asked curiously, "Junior Brother Feng, are you and Junior Sister Wang siblings?"
"Actually, they are not blood siblings, but sworn siblings," Ye Feng said.
“I see. That explains why you have different surnames,” Liang Jie said.
Then Liang Jie nudged Ye Feng with his elbow and whispered, "Junior Brother Feng, you've kept such a beauty by your side but haven't enjoyed her. You really have a way with yourself."
"Ahem... Actually, I've had similar thoughts, but I'm too embarrassed to admit it," Ye Feng said somewhat awkwardly.
"A man should be a little thick-skinned and get things done quickly, even if it's a bit muddled. If you take your time, and your sworn sister gets snatched away by another man, you'll have nowhere to cry!" Liang Jie teased.
"I'll be careful," Night Wind said.
Li Qinghe overheard Ye Feng and Liang Jie's conversation.
Li Qinghe blushed and pretended to be embarrassed and angry, saying, "Senior Brother Liang, what are you saying to my brother!"
"It's nothing, it's nothing."
Liang Jie and Ye Feng shook their heads together.
Before they knew it, Ye Feng and Liang Jie had grown closer.
However, Ye Feng had no good feelings towards Liang Jie, since he already knew that Tianhua Sect was not a legitimate sect and would harm China sooner or later.
Since that's the case, Ye Feng naturally wouldn't show any mercy to Liang Jie.
If the time comes for a falling out in the near future, Ye Feng will definitely not show any mercy.
“Junior Sister Wang, why don’t you work in the Merit Hall? It’s more suitable for you. Moreover, accumulating merit points in the Merit Hall is very fast. In less than half a year, you can be promoted to an inner disciple, and in less than three years, you can be promoted to a core disciple,” Liang Jie said.
“Okay.” Li Qinghe nodded without hesitation.
Liang Jie then asked Ye Feng, "Junior Brother Feng, are you skilled in medicine? Can you refine pills?"
“I am indeed an alchemist,” Ye Feng said.
"Then, Junior Brother Feng, how good are your alchemy skills?" Liang Jie asked again.
"I am now a seventh-grade alchemist," Ye Feng said again.
"That's great! Come with me, I'll take you to the alchemy workshop," Liang Jie said excitedly.
Liang Jie summoned an outer disciple of the Tianhua Sect to lead Li Qinghe to the Good Deeds Hall, while he himself took Ye Feng to the Pill Workshop.
Before long, Ye Feng followed Liang Jie to the alchemy workshop of Tianhua Sect.
"The elder of the Pill Workshop is Elder Zhao Ruxue, a very beautiful woman. Junior Brother Feng, you must control yourself and not fall at her feet," Liang Jie joked.
“I will control myself,” Night Wind said.
In the main hall of the alchemy workshop, many disciples were selecting pills. Liang Jie quickly found an alchemist and said, "Junior Sister Sun, this is Junior Brother Feng Ye. He has just joined our Tianhua Sect."
"Oh, you're new here," the female disciple said with a smile.
Liang Jie said seriously, "Junior Sister Sun, don't underestimate him. Although Junior Brother Feng is new here, he is a martial arts master, just like me, at the True Essence Realm. Moreover, Junior Brother Feng is also a seventh-grade alchemist, and he will be working in the alchemy workshop from now on."
Upon hearing Liang Jie's words, Junior Sister Sun's eyes widened in disbelief.
"What rank are you as an alchemist?" Junior Sister Sun asked.
"Seventh rank," Night Wind replied.
"What? Seventh rank? Really?" Junior Sister Sun was even more shocked.
Ye Feng smiled and said, "Seventh rank isn't such a remarkable rank, Senior Sister Sun, you don't need to be so formal."
Liang Jie then introduced, "Junior Brother Feng, this Junior Sister Sun's name is Sun Chengxiang. She's a young girl who hasn't even grown up yet, so don't take her seriously."
“Of course not,” Ye Feng said.
Sun Chengxiang frowned and said, "You look so young, yet you're a seventh-grade alchemist. I can't believe it. How about this, let's have a contest right here. If you can surpass me in alchemy, I'll acknowledge you and never bother you again."
“This…” Ye Feng looked at Liang Jie.
Liang Jie, who was also eager to see Ye Feng's alchemy skills, readily agreed, saying, "As the saying goes, 'no fight, no friendship.' Since Junior Sister Sun wants to spar with Junior Brother Feng on alchemy, you should agree. Besides, Junior Sister Sun is only a fifth-grade alchemist now; she's definitely no match for you."
"Alright then, since you've said so, Senior Brother Liang, I'll show off a little," Ye Feng joked.
Sun Chengxiang took out an exquisitely crafted alchemy furnace, placed it on the ground, and sat down: "Let's refine the Five Yang Qi-Replenishing Pill, the most common fifth-grade spiritual pill. What do you think?"
“Alright, then I’ll take the Five Yang Qi-Boosting Pill, but I don’t have the necessary ingredients,” Ye Feng said.
"It's okay, I have it."
Sun Chengxiang took out two sets of medicinal materials for refining the Five Yang Qi-Replenishing Pill from her storage ring, one set for herself and one set for Ye Feng.
Sun Chengxiang then continued, "We only have one chance. Whoever fails to refine the pill loses. If we both succeed, we'll see who refines the pill with the better appearance. If the appearance is similar, we'll see who finishes it in the shortest time!"
“Okay, let’s do it that way,” Night Wind nodded.
Seeing that Ye Feng agreed, Sun Chengxiang immediately started refining pills.
“Junior Sister Sun, you didn’t even say ‘start’? You’re really good at taking advantage of others… Junior Brother Feng, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and start, or you won’t be able to catch up with Junior Sister Sun.” Liang Jie said with a laugh.
