Wang Shanhe had no choice but to kneel down with a bitter face, not daring to utter a single word of rebuttal.
Night Breeze then softened his tone and said, "Wang Shanhe, I didn't expect that while I was out, you actually comprehended the Void Origin Divine Finger on your own. It seems your talent is indeed quite remarkable. But is the Void Origin Divine Finger meant for you to use against your fellow disciples?"
"Elder, I was wrong. I was just sparring with Junior Brother Zhao and got a little carried away, so I..." Wang Shanhe said dejectedly.
"Further words are useless!"
With a flick of his sleeve, Ye Feng led Sun Muqing and Jiang Lingxuan away, heading towards his cave dwelling.
Along the way, Ye Feng encountered many outer disciples, inner disciples, personal disciples, and protectors of the Shenmu Sect.
I didn't encounter any elders.
After all, the Shenmu Sect only has eight elders in total, and apart from Ye Feng, who is an imposter elder, there are only seven others.
Moreover, as an elder, he spends most of his time meditating and cultivating in his own cave, and rarely shows his face unless there are important matters to attend to.
Given this, it's only natural that Ye Feng didn't encounter any elders from the Shenmu Sect.
The disciples and protectors all had to bow and greet Ye Feng with utmost respect.
Ye Feng knew most of these disciples and protectors.
Ye Feng obtained everything Lin Bifeng wanted to know from his mind through the Soul Searching Technique. In other words, Ye Feng knew everything Lin Bifeng knew, and probably also knew things Lin Bifeng didn't know.
In this way, Ye Feng could easily impersonate Lin Bifeng, the third elder of the Shenmu Sect.
Just as they were about to step into their cave, a female warrior dressed in a light green robe, who looked like an immortal, quickly walked over.
"Elder Lin, you're finally back! The sect leader has been waiting for you for many days," the woman said with a smile.
This woman's name is Jiang Tianyu, and she is one of the protectors of the Shenmu Sect, ranking ninth.
The cultivation method she practiced was also the fundamental technique of the Shenmu Sect, the Shenmu Biluo Technique, but the martial art she specialized in was not the Void Yuan Divine Finger, but the Azure Sky Biluo Sword.
"I took on two apprentices outside and spent some time teaching them, so I'm late returning. Please forgive me, Protector Wangjiang," Ye Feng said calmly.
Jiang Tianyu quickly said, "Elder Lin, you're too kind. How could I dare to blame you? I was just saying it casually..."
As they spoke, Jiang Tianyu cast curious glances at Sun Muqing and Jiang Lingxuan.
Ye Feng laughed and said, "My two beloved disciples, why don't you pay your respects to Protector Jiang?"
Sun Muqing and Jiang Lingxuan almost burst out laughing.
Then the two of them took two steps forward and gracefully bowed to Jiang Tianyu.
"Hello, Protector Jiang."
Sun Muqing and Jiang Lingxuan spoke together.
Jiang Tianyu smiled and said, "Don't call me a protector. Since you are Elder Lin's disciples, you will be my nieces from now on. Just call me 'Uncle-Master'."
After saying that, Jiang Tianyu took out two spiritual artifacts from his storage ring.
"This is a small gift for us to meet, please accept it," Jiang Tianyu said.
Sun Muqing and Jiang Lingxuan still looked down on the magical artifact that Jiang Tianyu had given them.
Both of these are defensive magical artifacts, but they are only of the third grade. Even if Ye Feng casually forged one, it would be much stronger than this.
However, none of them refused; they immediately accepted the magical artifacts Jiang Tianyu gave them and thanked her.
"Protector Jiang, has anything major happened recently?" Ye Feng asked.
Jiang Tianyu immediately said, "If we're talking about important matters, the most important one to mention is naturally the upcoming disciple selection. According to the sect leader's wishes, Elder Lin, you will personally preside over this selection."
"I already know that. Is there anything else important?" Ye Feng asked again.
Jiang Tianyu thought for a moment before saying, "Three years ago, Elder Xiong's personal disciple, Xiong Shaoze, went down the mountain to travel, but died in Qingling City. He was killed by Feng Changyang, a sword cultivator from Qingling City. Elder Xiong was furious and took action himself, but unexpectedly, Feng Changyang escaped and he even had a finger cut off... However, three years have passed in the blink of an eye, and Elder Xiong's injury must have healed long ago."
"I've heard about this too. Is there anything else?" Ye Feng pressed.
Jiang Tianyu pondered for a moment, then said, "By the way, a major event did happen recently, but it doesn't have much to do with our Shenmu Sect. In a city under the jurisdiction of the Jinyun Sect, there was a force called Luolei Manor. The lord of Luolei Manor offended an elder of the Jinyun Sect, so Luolei Manor was destroyed by the Jinyun Sect. Only the lord and young lord of Luolei Manor escaped with a few people..."
“Originally, this was not a big deal. Thunderfall Manor was at most a small sect, not worth mentioning.”
"What no one expected was that Lei Aotian, the founder of Thunderfall Manor, actually made a comeback! Moreover, Lei Aotian was a living saint who had entered the Saint Realm. He directly led the remnants of Thunderfall Manor to launch a counterattack against the Golden Cloud Sect. Even the sect master of the Golden Cloud Sect was no match for Lei Aotian!"
"If our sect leader hadn't gone to provide support, the Golden Cloud Sect would probably have been wiped out by that Lei Aotian alone!"
Sun Muqing and Jiang Lingxuan both looked at Ye Feng.
Because they knew that Ye Feng was Lei Aotian, the founder of Luo Lei Manor.
Ye Feng said calmly, "I've heard about this matter too... Well, let's stop chatting here. I've just returned to the sect and still need to tidy up my cave dwelling. I'll visit you, Protector Jiang, another day to have tea and discuss the Dao with you."
"Alright, alright, I'll be waiting for you." Jiang Tianyu nodded with a smile.
Jiang Tianyu then turned and left, but after taking a few steps, she remembered something: "By the way, Elder Lin, after you finish tidying up your cave, go see the sect leader as soon as possible. The sect leader is still waiting for you. He wants to discuss the selection of disciples with you."
“I will go see him,” Ye Feng said.
Jiang Tianyu finally left and disappeared into the distance.
After confirming that Jiang Tianyu had really left, Sun Muqing and Jiang Lingxuan burst into laughter together.
"Night Wind, I didn't expect you to be such a good actor!"
"Yes, yes, if I didn't know you were an imposter, I would definitely think you were the Third Elder of the Divine Wood Sect!"
Ye Feng raised his hand and wiped his face, instantly transforming from a middle-aged man in his forties back to his original appearance.
"This face suits me better," Ye Feng said with a self-deprecating laugh.
Sun Muqing and Jiang Lingxuan burst into laughter again, almost rolling on the ground clutching their stomachs.
Night Breeze turned to face the cave entrance and raised his right hand to cast a magic seal.
The stone door of the cave immediately opened slowly.
Night Breeze's cave dwelling—no, it should be said that it is the cave dwelling of Lin Bifeng, the third elder of the Divine Wood Sect—is quite scenic.
The cave looks like a winding cavern, but it is very spacious inside and full of spiritual herbs and medicines.
