The next day, at the end of the Mao hour (5-7 AM).
Just as Dongfang Bubai said yesterday, he went out before Chenshi (7-9 AM).
Watching Dongfang Bubai's figure disappear quickly into the distance using her lightness skill, Qu Feiyan turned to Chu Qinghe and asked, "Young Master, aren't you wondering why Sister Dongfang went out so early?"
Chu Qinghe said calmly, "A little, but not much!"
Qu Feiyan asked in astonishment, "Then why didn't you ask?"
Chu Qinghe looked at Qu Feiyan with a puzzled expression and asked, "Why do you ask?"
Qu Feiyan asked, puzzled, "Isn't Young Master also curious about Sister Dongfang's purpose in going out at this time?"
Chu Qinghe said lazily, "Curiosity doesn't mean I have to know. If she wants to tell me, she will. If she doesn't want to tell me, then it's unnecessary. In that case, why should I bother?"
Humans have seven emotions and six desires. Not to mention that Dongfang Bubai has the cultivation of a Grandmaster and an extraordinary status.
Even Zhang Sanfeng, who had reached the Celestial Realm in martial arts, dared not say that he had no secrets at all.
Everyone has their own ulterior motives, and there's nothing wrong with that.
Wanting to understand everything perfectly may satisfy one's curiosity, but it may also annoy others.
Children are the ones who pry into things; adults know what respect for privacy means.
Hearing Chu Qinghe's words, Qu Feiyan pursed her lips and didn't ask any further questions.
Chu Qinghe chuckled as he observed Qu Feiyan's reaction.
This is why Chu Qinghe thought the little girl was quite clever.
Not to mention other people of Qu Feiyan's age, even many adults in their thirties and forties often can't suppress their curiosity and want to find out everything.
The saying "curiosity killed the cat" is not just a joke.
Naturally, people with excessive curiosity like this often don't end up well.
In the martial arts world, they would almost never live to a ripe old age.
Qu Feiyan, however, was different.
Although he is still very curious, at least he is willing to listen to advice.
Naturally, in this respect alone, Qu Feiyan has already surpassed far more people.
Furthermore, the fact that this girl was able to develop a comfortable way of getting along with someone like Dongfang Bubai in such a short time reveals a cleverness that truly deserves the description "intelligent and clever".
Afterwards, while Qu Feiyan was immersed in cultivation, Chu Qinghe, who had finished his meal, leisurely went out.
at the same time.
North of the city.
It is ten miles away from the North Gate.
At this moment, Dongfang Bubai still stood on the hill he had been standing on yesterday, his eyes closed, his aura contained but not yet unleashed.
If other observant martial artists were present at this moment, they would have noticed that a cold wind was blowing around them.
But the three feet of withered grass surrounding Dongfang Bubai didn't sway at all.
Suddenly, as if sensing something, Dongfang Bubai slowly opened his eyes.
As his gaze shifted slightly, Dongfang Bubai saw a graceful, ethereal figure rapidly approaching.
Who else could it be but Yaoyue?
In the blink of an eye, Yaoyue landed opposite Dongfang Bubai from a distance.
With a flick of her long sleeves and one hand behind her back, Yaoyue, her face bare, spoke in a cool voice: "You are indeed punctual."
Despite its relatively low volume, the amplified sound, amplified by the internal energy, clearly reached Dongfang Bubai's ears from ten meters away.
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Bubai smiled nonchalantly and said, "I am naturally eagerly anticipating the opportunity to defeat Yaoyue, the Grand Palace Master of Yihua Palace."
Upon hearing the voice, Yaoyue's lips curled into a cold smile.
"It seems that one night has made you even more arrogant."
Hearing Yaoyue's words, Dongfang Bubai remained calm and composed, saying in a flat voice, "Besides, it's best to clarify some things before we fight."
Upon hearing this, Yaoyue did not speak, but waited for Dongfang Bubai to continue.
Seeing this, Dongfang Bubai slowly said, "As a top-tier power, your Yihua Palace's sphere of influence covers the entire southwest region. In recent years, the only first-rate power left is the Sun Moon Divine Sect, which I belong to."
"But everyone in the martial world knows the feud between my Sun Moon Sect and the Five Mountains Sword Sect. If the Five Mountains Sword Sect is destroyed, perhaps I will set my next target on your Yihua Palace, instead of now."
In his words, Dongfang Bubai made no attempt to conceal his attitude toward Yihua Palace and his future plans.
In response, Yaoyue coldly said, "So, you're now trying to tell me that the deaths of the Yihua Palace disciples were not the work of your Sun Moon Divine Sect?"
Dongfang Bubai said calmly, "If you can't think of this, why would you, as the Grand Master of Yihua Palace, go to Yushui City alone?"
The reason why Yaoyue, Dongfang Bubai, and Shuimu Yinji were compared by people in the martial arts world was not simply because of their respective Grandmaster level cultivation and status.
More importantly, it's because the three women have earned their reputations through hard work and dedication over the years.
They all have a bad reputation.
Therefore, if Yaoyue had truly believed from the beginning that the disciples of Yihua Palace were the work of the Sun Moon Divine Sect, given Yaoyue's personality, she probably wouldn't have come to find Dongfang Bubai immediately, but would have instead pointed her sword at Blackwood Cliff.
Upon hearing this, Yaoyue's eyes narrowed slightly, but she did not refute it, clearly indicating that Dongfang Bubai had hit the nail on the head.
After a moment, Yaoyue spoke up: "Why should I believe your one-sided account?"
If it were an ordinary person, faced with Yaoyue's question at this moment, they might say something to make their words more convincing.
But who is Dongfang Bubai?
Hearing Yaoyue's question, Dongfang Bubai sneered, "I am merely telling you the truth. Whether you believe it or not is none of my business. However, if the dignified Palace Master Yaoyue of Yihua Palace is willing to be used as a pawn, what harm is there in adding another Yihua Palace to the Sun Moon Divine Sect's future enemies?"
These few simple words were filled with confidence and domineering presence, the domineering aura they contained was so fierce it bordered on arrogant.
This caused a chill to well up in Yaoyue's beautiful eyes.
"Ha, your Sun Moon Divine Sect? If I wanted to, my Flower Shifting Palace could easily wipe out your Blackwood Cliff."
However, Dongfang Bubai remained completely unconcerned upon hearing Yaoyue's words.
"It's just a mere Sun Moon Cult. With me here, you can destroy one Sun Moon Cult, and I can simply rebuild it."
Dongfang Bubai's words were arrogant, but even Yaoyue had to admit that Dongfang Bubai had the right to be arrogant.
To have reached this point on his own at such a young age, even Yaoyue wouldn't dare say she could have done better than Dongfang Bubai.
The strong will always get stronger, and the weak will always get weaker.
True powerhouses never seek to rely on any particular force.
Because when one's strength reaches a sufficient level, one becomes the greatest power.
Just like Dongfang Bubai, the reason why the Sun Moon Cult is feared is not because of the Sun Moon Cult itself.
What people fear most is not the name "Sun Moon Cult," but Dongfang Bubai, who leads the Sun Moon Cult.
