Chapter 673: Your Fate Shouldn't Be Like This
Zhong Wuji frowned: "That's true, but...why don't you want to reconsider?"
Ye Fei shook her head: "Senior, my mind is made up."
"this……"
Zhong Wuji was at a loss for what to do, even though it was her personal choice to use which secret manual.
However, this secret manual specializing in poisons is one that should be carefully considered.
Zhong Wuji still wanted to persuade her again: "Alas, little girl, you don't know this. This manual has fallen into the hands of six powerful figures, and the fates of these figures were all extremely tragic. Some were left with lifelong disabilities, some were devoured by poisons instead of using them, and some had their spiritual roots damaged by the poisons, making them unable to cultivate ever again... Aren't you afraid of these consequences?"
Ye Fei smiled, her lips curving upwards.
A backlash from the poison?
She is a drug expert herself.
If one is poisoned in return, then one's control and mastery over the poison are still too poor.
"Please rest assured, senior." Ye Fei quietly looked at Zhong Wuji. "I have my own reasons for choosing this manual. Whether you think I'm arrogant or presumptuous, I do have an inseparable relationship with poison."
"I'd rather control poison than use it."
Zhong Wuji was stunned for a moment. An inseparable relationship?
Could it be that this girl grew up surrounded by jars of poison?!
Zhong Wuji was startled by his own thoughts. He had tried to dissuade him, but the man insisted on his decision. So he stopped pressuring him: "Since that's the case, I won't say anything more. I hope this manual will shine brightly in your hands."
Ye Fei carefully put away the manual, and Zhong Wuji turned his gaze to Li Yuan. Seeing the "Formless Steps" in Li Yuan's hand, he nodded in satisfaction: "Formless and shadowless, moving through the clouds, like a dragon soaring through the wind, stepping on the void and rising straight up... This is a very good set of footwork. Kid, you have a good eye for it!"
Li Yuan paused for a few seconds, then finally uttered only two words: "You flatter me."
"We've finished choosing the techniques and secret manuals, so it's time for us to return to the Divine Wind Palace."
Zhong Wuji slowly flicked his sleeve and turned to walk towards the gate.
...
Footsteps echoed along the straight corridor connecting the Divine Wind Tower and the Divine Wind Palace.
Zhong Wuji walked at the very back, his gaze fixed on Li Yuan in front of him.
After a while, he quickened his pace a few steps and then patted Li Yuan on the shoulder.
Li Yuan stopped and turned his head to look at Zhong Wuji, who stood with his hands behind his back, calmly meeting his gaze: "You are exceptionally talented at such a young age, but you have shown too much of your brilliance within the Eight Desolate Divine Realm."
Li Yuan raised an eyebrow, and Zhong Wuji sighed, then continued to say to himself, "Your fate shouldn't be like this, but I hope your family can protect you..."
After saying that, he stopped talking and started to walk away.
Li Yuan narrowed his eyes. Did Zhong Wuji mean that he was being targeted by certain forces?
Upon returning to the Divine Wind Palace, there were not many people left inside; most of the teams had already left.
When Ye Fei and Li Yuan returned to the team, everyone crowded around them. The dean, unable to contain his curiosity, immediately asked, "What good technique manuals did you two choose?"
"We only chose techniques that matched our own spiritual energy," Ye Fei lied.
The dean had no doubts and his face was full of joy: "The techniques inside the Divine Wind Tower are never revealed. How can those ordinary techniques compare to their value? Go back and absorb the techniques well."
"Yes, I will." Ye Fei smiled.
Just as the dean was about to continue speaking, he saw a group of people slowly walking towards them—
