Chapter 523: Forgive others when you can.
Ye Fei curled her lips upon hearing this: "Don't take it to heart. If I hadn't acted in time, those silver needles could have easily killed me."
"Since you are the most talented cultivator in the Lotus Flower Sect, you should understand that it is very dangerous to do two things at once during cultivation."
As Ye Fei spoke, her sharp gaze swept over Long Xi, and then her tone changed: "Or is it that every guest who enters the Lotus Sect will be 'accidentally' pierced in a vital spot by your Lotus Needle?"
The girl's words were utterly impolite, and Longxi's gaze turned noticeably cold. The purple-robed and pink-robed female disciples looked on in surprise: This little girl actually dared to speak to Senior Sister Longxi in such a tone?!
Longxi stared at Ye Fei expressionlessly, her chin held high in a slightly arrogant manner, a hint of hostility flashing in her eyes: "So, what do you intend to do?"
Ye Fei looked at her arrogant demeanor and sneered inwardly.
Judging from the words of the purple-robed female disciple and Longxi's attitude, she probably guessed it—Yan Wu, as the sect leader, suddenly invited her, an unknown junior, to be a guest of the Lotus Flower Sect, which aroused the dissatisfaction of Longxi, who had the reputation of being a high-ranking disciple of the sect leader, hence the show of force just now.
Although it's not entirely clear where Longxi's hostility comes from, judging from the fact that she can use needle-like weapons despite not being a disciple of the Lotus Flower Sect, she probably thinks that Yan Wu is going to take on a disciple and is afraid that Yan Wu's title of the sect leader's disciple will be in jeopardy.
Ye Fei remained calm: "If this is how your Lotus Flower Sect treats its guests, then I cannot accept it. Let's call it quits today."
She flicked her sleeve, turned around, and left.
Longxi was stunned. She actually... left?!
Seeing that Ye Fei was about to leave the Lotus Sect without any mercy, Long Xi angrily said, "Stop! Once you've entered the Lotus Sect, how dare you think you can just leave as you please!"
Ye Fei ignored Long Xi and walked out of the main gate of the Lotus Flower Sect without looking back.
Enraged, Longxi waved her hands and several silver needles appeared instantly: "I'll make you stop right there—!"
A silver light pierced through the void and struck the girl's back. However, before the needle tip could even touch her sleeve, the lotus needle was suddenly suppressed in the air by an invisible force!
Longxi was astonished. What kind of power was this?!
Suddenly, a clear and cold voice rang in Longxi's ears: "Be lenient when you can, don't go too far."
Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of a delicate face. The beautiful girl was wearing a light blue knee-length robe, and her pair of emerald eyes flashed with a chilling light. The powerful aura emanating from her almost made Longxi lose control and kneel on the ground!
Longxi suppressed her fear, her pupils shrinking slightly: Demon Eyes? This is... a spirit beast?!
"Flower".
The contractor's call came from ahead. Hua Hua withdrew her aura and followed without saying a word.
Only after Ye Fei and Hua Hua's figures completely disappeared did the fear that had been lingering in Long Xi's heart slowly dissipate.
What terrifying power… Longxi raised her hand to wipe the cold sweat from her temples, still shaken.
A little girl who is only ten years old can actually form a contract with such a spirit beast!
Longxi clenched her fists, her hatred and jealousy towards Ye Fei intensifying.
...
Ye Fei followed the path she had come from back to the town at the foot of the mountain, bought some snacks from a nearby stall, and began to eat them by herself.
Sigh, this trip was a waste... Ye Fei chewed on the pastry in her mouth and sighed inwardly.
She ate as she walked, strolling around the small town.
As she walked, a girl in a blue robe brushed past her.
