Chapter 522: Senior Sister Longxi
The purple-robed female disciple smiled awkwardly, "...The sect leader didn't tell us much about you, he just instructed us to come to Lingfeng Academy to welcome you."
Ye Fei gave an "oh," then picked up her teacup and began drinking her tea without saying a word.
A young girl in an elegant, simple robe casually crossed her legs, sipping tea and cracking melon seeds with an air of nonchalance.
The purple-robed female disciple and the pink-robed female disciple exchanged a secret glance, seeing a sense of crisis in each other's eyes.
What's even more surprising is that the sect leader seems to care about the girl who can manipulate needle-like weapons... Just who is she?

The Lotus Sect is located within the territory of the Peerless Kingdom, with its headquarters situated on Xiaci Mountain, the highest peak in the Peerless Kingdom.
After galloping for an hour and a half, the two fine Akhal-Teke horses finally arrived at the Lotus Flower Sect.
What comes into view is a palace standing on the edge of a cliff. Its green glazed tiles gleam in the sunlight. The pavilions and towers are covered with wisps of water mist from the waterfall cascading down the mountain behind them. Several small silver bells hang from the eaves, tinkling in the wind. The tranquility exudes a sense of sacred isolation from the world.
Behind the palace stands a snow-white tower, shrouded in mist and clouds. The faint sound of bells emanating from it seems to pierce the sky, startling several cranes into flight.
Ye Fei alighted from the carriage and gazed at the Lotus Sect, which looked like a fairyland, in the distance.
This is the Lotus Sect, one of the three major sects in the human realm?
"Miss Ye, this way please."
Upon hearing the shouts of the four Lotus Sect disciples, Ye Fei snapped out of her daze and strode over with elegant steps.
After entering the main gate of the Lotus Flower Sect, the purple-robed female disciple and the pink-robed female disciple led Ye Fei towards the hall in front.
After passing through the winding corridors, you will reach the Lotus Sect Hall.
"Miss Ye, the sect leader is currently occupied with other matters. Please enter the hall alone and wait for a moment." The purple-robed female disciple stopped and turned to look at Ye Fei.
Ye Fei nodded slightly, and just as she was about to enter the hall, she suddenly felt a strong killing intent pierce through the air and stab towards her!
With lightning speed, she flicked her sleeve, her five fingers gripping inside, using two completely different forces—wood and fire—to firmly restrain a slender silver needle flying from her side.
Ye Fei narrowed her eyes, and with a sudden burst of strength, the two forces instantly snapped the slender silver needle in two!
With a clang, the silver needle, broken in two, fell to the ground, losing its offensive power. Ye Fei slowly raised her eyes and looked over, only to see a tall woman in a bright gold battle robe walking towards her with one hand on her hip. Her features were delicate, but upon closer inspection, one could sense an undisguised fierceness.
Upon seeing the newcomer, the purple-robed and pink-robed female disciples immediately bowed and greeted her: "Senior Sister Longxi!"
The woman called Longxi glanced at the two of them, then turned her gaze to Ye Fei: "I'm sorry, I was cultivating just now and didn't notice that there were guests here. I lost control and accidentally stabbed you with the Lotus Needle. I'm really sorry."
Ye Fei raised an eyebrow. The silver needle just now carried absolute killing intent, and its trajectory was aimed at her. It didn't seem to be an "accident."
When practicing with needle-like weapons, distraction is a major taboo; a moment's carelessness can easily take a life. This woman... is hostile towards her.
Seeing Ye Fei's slightly somber expression and silence, the purple-robed female disciple spoke up to explain, "Miss Ye, this is Long Xi, a highly talented disciple under the sect leader. She is the most gifted cultivator in the sect. We are very sorry for what happened just now. Please don't take it to heart."
