Jiang Feng sat leisurely in front of the house, his eyes gently gazing at the graceful Bai Ling standing not far away. He said slowly, "You'll have to work hard during this period. You must give it your all and strive to raise the strength of all the monsters here to a higher level. Go to the spiritual spring first and have a good baptism. In my opinion, this time may help you successfully break through to the fusion stage."
Hearing this, Bai Ling's heart tightened. She knew the mission was arduous, but her inner desire to improve her strength only grew stronger. After all, only by being strong enough could she always follow her master and help him solve his problems. So, she nodded slightly to Jiang Feng, turned around, and quickly walked towards the spiritual spring.
Not long after, Song Yunfeng and Hu Sanniang arrived and slowly sat down next to Jiang Feng. Seeing this, Jiang Feng cleared his throat and then jokingly said with a half-smile, "Oh my, this is really a bit troublesome! From now on, should I call you Third Sister, or should I change to Sister-in-law?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Song Yunfeng's face, which had been calm and composed, instantly flushed red like a ripe apple. Meanwhile, Hu Sanniang, standing beside him, angrily scolded him, "Good fourth brother, how did you become so slick now? Isn't it time to find you a good match? Find a wife and bring her home to discipline you properly?"
However, at this moment, Jiang Feng's smile suddenly faded, replaced by an extremely serious expression. He stared at Song Yunfeng and said solemnly, "Brother, I'm not kidding. I believe that it won't be long before you can reshape your true form and regain your former glory!"
At first, Song Yunfeng thought that this was just his fourth brother's words of comfort out of kindness, so he waved his hand and said with a wry smile: "Fourth brother, please stop joking with me. I am not in a hurry for this matter now. The spiritual energy here is rich, which is very beneficial for cultivation. Besides, I have Sanniang by my side. Even if I live a dull life like this, I am willing to do it." After saying this, he looked at Sanniang.
Jiang Feng shook his head and said, "Brother, I'm not kidding you. I told you that if I want to help you restore your true body, I have to wait for Xing Bo to wake up. Xing Bo once told me that if I can get the God Realm Stone, I can speed up his awakening time."
Sanniang rushed to say, "Fourth brother, we know your intentions, but in this vast Kyushu continent, even immortal stones are hard to come by, let alone divine stones. Don't put too much pressure on yourself, just let nature take its course."
Seeing that his explanation was not working, Jiang Feng flipped his hand over, and the magic stone appeared in his hand. Then he said, "Look, what is this?"
Looking at the powerful energy emanating from the stone, both of them were shocked and speechless for a moment.
Crystal tears were sparkling in Sanniang's beautiful eyes at this moment. Her lips trembled slightly and she whispered, "Fourth brother, is this the legendary magic stone? I heard that you went deep into the secret realm to search for it a few days ago. How could you act so rashly? I really don't know how much hardship and difficulty you have endured for us..." As she spoke, tears slid down her fair cheeks.
At that moment, a gigantic dragon head suddenly approached, its expression extremely excited, and it shouted loudly, "Haha, boy, quickly present this divine stone to me! As long as I have this divine object, I will be able to recover a whole level of strength! Then, even if I face those cultivators who have reached the great perfection stage, I will definitely not be afraid at all!"
However, facing the old dragon's unreasonable request, Jiang Feng shook his head seriously and responded firmly: "Absolutely not! This magic stone plays a vital role to me, so don't think about it anymore! Brother, starting today, I decided to place this magic stone in the room where Xing Bo lives, and use the power of space to refine it every day. At the same time, it is strictly forbidden for anyone to approach Xing Bo's house, especially this restless old dragon!" Before he finished speaking, Jiang Feng had already exerted a powerful force of space, and instantly wrapped the magic stone tightly.
Just as Jiang Feng and the others were chatting in this mysterious space, a clear and pleasant voice suddenly rang out. It turned out that someone had come to Qingyun Sect looking for Jiang Feng. Upon hearing this, Jiang Feng did not hesitate and flashed, appearing in the magnificent hall of Qingyun Sect like a ghost in the blink of an eye. When he saw the person in front of him clearly, he couldn't help but feel an uncontrollable restlessness in his heart.
The person who came was Murong Ziyan!
Jiang Feng walked up to Murong Ziyan and said happily, "Senior Sister Ziyan, why are you here?"
Murong Ziyan smiled and said, "Can't I come? Or do the geniuses in this sect competition look down on me, their senior sister?"
Jiang Feng didn't know how to answer for a moment, like a child who had made a mistake. Murong Ziyan put away her smile and said, "I came to see you this time because I have something important to tell you. Are you going to receive me in this hall? Please accompany me for a walk!"
Afterwards, Jiang Feng carefully took Murong Ziyan's soft, boneless hand and strolled to a quiet and elegant pavilion in the back mountain. The two sat down side by side, the breeze bringing a touch of coolness and comfort.
Murong Ziyan's beautiful eyes gazed at the picturesque scenery around her, and she couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wow, it's so beautiful! It would be such a wonderful thing if I could stay here hand in hand with my beloved and spend my life together!" Her voice was clear and pleasant, like the sound of nature, echoing in this tranquil atmosphere.
Jiang Feng nodded slightly and responded with great emotion: "Indeed, it's a pity that we are in this world of cultivation full of disputes and killings. How can we expect such a peaceful and comfortable life? By the way, why are you looking for me today, senior sister?" As he spoke, he turned his head and his eyes fell gently on Murong Ziyan's pretty face.
Murong Ziyan smiled faintly, then gently took out an exquisite treasure box from her bosom and handed it to Jiang Feng. She said softly, "I heard that you have been searching for immortal stones, so I specially asked my family for three to send to you. In addition, I have come to remind you of something else. According to the instructions from the family, none of us can interfere with the events of the Qingyun Sect without authorization. And according to some intelligence I have secretly collected, this seemingly ordinary Xuanhai Sect seems to be backed by the will of the imperial dynasty."
Jiang Feng frowned slightly, and asked with a puzzled look on his face, "I still don't understand why so many powerful forces like this have to pick on me?"
Murong Ziyan's expression grew serious as she replied solemnly, "The reason is simple. Your appearance has disrupted the existing balance of power. They aren't simply trying to make things difficult for you personally, but rather are attempting to use various means to uncover whether you're being supported by any mysterious figure or powerful force. After all, in this world of cultivation where the strong prey on the weak, any slight disturbance could trigger a major uproar."
