Chapter 161: The Holy Church
Ye Fei was speechless. This... she really didn't know.
The main reason is that it's hard to believe that the always smiling Shadow Chaser was once an academy elder.
Ye Fei rested her chin on her hand, recalling Zhu Ying's expression and actions when facing the Seventh Elder, and couldn't help but ask, "That Deacon Zhu Ying... likes you very much, doesn't he?"
The Seventh Elder smiled and said, "My lover, Zhu Ying, and I used to be very close friends who could talk about anything. Perhaps it was because we spent so much time together that we all developed feelings for me."
“However, I did not choose Zhu Ying.” The Seventh Elder said, taking out a jade pendant from the red jade bracelet on his wrist and playing with it in his hand. He murmured, “After my lover passed away, Zhu Ying pursued me more than once and even gave me this jade pendant.”
"But my heart has already been taken by my lover, even though he is no longer here..."
The Seventh Elder looked up at Ye Fei, then laughed self-deprecatingly and shook his head: "Sigh, once you start talking, it's hard to take it back. You're still young, and it might be a bit too early for me to tell you all this..."
Ye Fei remained silent.
The Seventh Elder's lover died because of the demons, and she had long harbored a deep hatred for them.
But what if she knew that the disciple she had taken on was actually a demon...?
Paper cannot contain fire.
Ye Fei seemed to have already seen the scene of the Seventh Elder breaking with Li Yuan one day in the future.
"Speaking of which, Little Fei'er, what brings you to the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion today?" the Seventh Elder asked, taking a sip of tea.
Ye Fei immediately perked up and started talking to the Seventh Elder about Yu Muhan.
After hearing this, the Seventh Elder stroked her chin thoughtfully. After a while, she said, "Light-type spiritual energy carrying a blessing effect? That girl is indeed a very sought-after spiritual master these days."
After all, having such a healing-type spiritual master in the team can provide a continuous source of combat power for teammates.
“Letting that girl into the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion isn’t out of the question.” The Seventh Elder didn’t think long before saying, “However, like you and Xiao Li, she must advance to the Spirit King level before she can access the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion’s secret manuals.”
As she spoke, she raised her hand and pointed towards the second-floor staircase: "The minimum level requirement for the second floor is Level 1 Spirit King. You guys need to step up your game."
Ye Fei sincerely thanked her, "Sister, thank you."
"What are you thanking me for? That girl is someone you trust, and she's a healing-type spiritual master worth nurturing. I'm willing to make an exception, not only for you, but also for the sake of Lingfeng Academy."
The Seventh Elder frowned, as if remembering something, and said, "In the human realm, most cultivators with healing spiritual energy have been poached by the Holy Sect. That girl named Yu Muhan will eventually have a chance to demonstrate her strength in front of many forces. I'm afraid that time..."
This wasn't the first time Ye Fei had heard the words "Holy Religion." Huang Rongyu had previously mentioned it to her at the auction: "Sister, what is the Holy Religion?"
"The Holy Sect is located in the Peerless Kingdom, a place for cultivating saints," the Seventh Elder explained. "The Holy Sect holds a very high position in the Peerless Kingdom, almost on par with the royal family and the Lotus Sect, one of the three major sects."
Ye Fei pursed her lips and asked again, "If Yu Muhan releases her spiritual energy in front of the Holy Sect, will she be taken away by the Holy Sect?"
"That depends on Yu Muhan's personal wishes," the Seventh Elder replied. "The Holy Sect has the most comprehensive healing-type spiritual master techniques, and these techniques are not passed on to outsiders. If Yu Muhan really wants to make more progress in healing spiritual energy, joining the Holy Sect may be the best way."
