Upon hearing this, Ao Guang frowned deeply: "Impossible! The pills I gave Ouyang Mingyue would never have that kind of effect."
At this moment, Song Sinian stepped forward and said sincerely, "Elder Ao, Brother Xiao is new here and probably doesn't want to cause trouble. Why don't we take a look at the pill first and then make a decision?"
Ao Guang pondered for a moment and nodded: "Alright. Xiao Feng, take out the pills."
Xiao Feng took out a small porcelain bottle from his bosom and poured out a round pill.
Ao Guang took the pill and examined it carefully. Suddenly, his expression changed drastically: "Something's wrong! One of the main ingredients in this pill has been switched!"
He looked up, a hint of shock flashing in his eyes: "No wonder it caused cultivators with ice-elemental roots to develop evil fire..."
As soon as Ao Guang finished speaking, Ouyang Mingyue suddenly spoke, her voice trembling slightly: "I...I remember how it felt that day."
She closed her eyes, seemingly recalling the scene: "After taking the pill, I felt a surge of heat rising within me, and my consciousness gradually blurred..."
After listening, Song Sinian thoughtfully stroked his chin: "So, perhaps it really was Junior Sister who took the initiative..."
"Impossible!" Ouyang Mingyue suddenly stood up, a blush rising on her face. "How could I..." Her voice trailed off, finally turning into a soft sigh.
Seeing this, Ao Guang quickly stepped forward to comfort her: "Mingyue, calm down. What's done is done, we need to analyze it rationally."
Ouyang Mingyue slowly sat down.
Just then, Song Sinian took out an exquisite jade bottle from his pocket and handed it to Xiao Feng: "Brother Xiao, this is our Song family's 'Nine-Turn Rejuvenation Pill,' which has excellent healing effects. Take it first to restore your vitality."
Xiao Feng accepted the jade bottle, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes: "Thank you, Brother Song."
He opened the bottle, and a refreshing medicinal fragrance immediately filled the air.
Meanwhile, Ao Guang, Ao Yun, and Ao Lei quietly gathered together and began to discuss in hushed tones.
"This kid's not bad. Should we try to set him up with Mingyue?" Ao Yun's eyes gleamed with shrewdness.
Ao Lei nodded: "That's indeed a good idea. They're both quite strong; if they could become cultivation partners..."
Ao Guang pondered for a moment before slowly speaking: "This matter requires further consideration. However, if they are truly destined to be together, it would certainly be a wonderful thing."
The three of them chatted amongst themselves, as if they were already making plans for Xiao Feng and Ouyang Mingyue's marriage.
As Ouyang Mingyue listened to the three whispering, she couldn't help but feel a little wavering.
She stole a glance at Xiao Feng, thinking to herself, "Could it really be me...?"
But then he shook his head and gritted his teeth, thinking, "No, I can't give in so easily!"
Xiao Feng seemed to sense something and looked up at Ouyang Mingyue.
His gaze held a hint of apology and complexity as he said softly, "Miss Ouyang, I..."
Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Feng suddenly remembered his senior sister.
"No, I can't let my senior sister down."
Xiao Feng took a deep breath and said solemnly, "Gentlemen, please reconsider this matter. There is indeed some misunderstanding between me and Miss Ouyang. Besides..."
He paused, a hint of tenderness flashing in his eyes: "I already have someone I love, and I cannot betray her feelings."
As soon as Xiao Feng finished speaking, a glint of light flashed in Ao Yun's eyes.
He coughed lightly and said with a smile, "In that case, we should get along even better. As long as Young Master Xiao treats Miss Ouyang well, I believe Miss Ouyang and Miss Zhao Yuwei will also get along peacefully."
Ao Yun secretly pondered: Although Xiao Feng said he had someone he loved, isn't it normal for a man to have multiple wives and concubines? If he could just let him spend more time with Ouyang Mingyue, maybe sparks would fly.
At that time, we can not only win over Xiao Feng, but also use this to restrain Ouyang Mingyue, killing two birds with one stone!
Upon hearing Ao Yun's words, Xiao Feng couldn't help but recall that night in the cave.
Ouyang Mingyue's soft body, fresh fragrance, and bright eyes—scenes flashed through my mind.
His heart started beating faster, and his face flushed slightly.
"Cough cough."
Seeing this, Ao Guang's eyes lit up, and he said, "In that case, why don't we let Miss Ouyang serve Young Master Xiao for a few days? Mingyue, you can ask Young Master Xiao for advice on cultivation methods, which would be killing two birds with one stone."
Ao Guang was secretly pleased to have Ouyang Mingyue serve Xiao Feng, as this would both bring the two closer and allow Xiao Feng to feel their goodwill.
If she could learn some martial arts techniques from Xiao Feng, it would greatly benefit Ouyang Mingyue's cultivation.
In this way, we can firmly grasp Xiao Feng as a potential stock.
Upon hearing this, a strange light flashed in Ouyang Mingyue's eyes.
She pondered to herself.
Although Xiao Feng is despicable, his martial arts skills are indeed unfathomable.
If I can learn something from him, wouldn't my cultivation level improve by leaps and bounds?
Thinking of this, her hostility towards Xiao Feng lessened somewhat.
Xiao Feng couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation when he heard that he would be spending every day with Ouyang Mingyue.
He had already begun to fantasize about cultivating together with her, discussing techniques, and perhaps even...
He quickly shook his head to dispel those inappropriate thoughts.
Just then, Ao Lei stood up and said, "Gentlemen, it's getting late. I think it's about time to return to Three Immortal Islands. Young Master Xiao, why don't you come with us?"
Ao Lei was planning to take Xiao Feng to the Three Immortal Islands, not only to let him see our strength, but also to take the opportunity to understand his abilities in depth.
If he really has some special qualities, he might be able to be of use to us.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
As soon as Ao Lei finished speaking, Xiao Feng's heart stirred.
Just as Xiao Feng was about to agree, Ouyang Mingyue suddenly interrupted, "Wait, Young Master Xiao hasn't agreed to let me serve him yet!"
Xiao Feng was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "There's no need for you to serve me, but we can cultivate and spar together."
A hint of joy flashed in Ouyang Mingyue's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.
She snorted and said, "Hmph, who wants you to serve me? But since you're willing to give me pointers, I'll reluctantly accept."
And so, the group set off for the Three Immortal Islands.
Although Xiao Feng and Ouyang Mingyue didn't talk much along the way, the atmosphere between them had clearly eased considerably.
After arriving at the Three Immortals Island, everyone settled down.
One day, Xiao Feng was resting in his room when he suddenly heard a slight noise outside the door.
He sat up alertly, only to see Ouyang Mingyue quietly push the door open and enter.
"What are you doing here?" Xiao Feng asked, somewhat surprised.
A hint of embarrassment flashed in Ouyang Mingyue's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.
She looked directly into Xiao Feng's eyes and said, "I...I want to see how you cultivate."
Xiao Feng raised an eyebrow, secretly amused by the girl's appearance; she was quite interesting.
