Feng Youyou's beautiful and lively eyes shifted slightly, her gaze landing on Dao Yuan. A half-smile played on her lips as she asked, "How many half-step Heavenly Dao Realm cultivators does your Reliance Sect have?"
The sound was crisp and melodious, like a clear mountain spring flowing by.
Upon hearing this, Dao Yuan smiled slightly, his smile revealing composure and calmness. He slowly replied, "It's not much, but it's more than enough to deal with the Heaven Stealing Alliance."
However, upon hearing this answer, Feng Youyou frowned slightly, her beautiful eyes fixed on Dao Yuan's face, as if trying to see through his calm expression to his true thoughts.
According to the intelligence gathered by the Stealing Heaven Alliance, the entire alliance currently only has two half-step Heavenly Dao Realm experts: Dao Yuan and Ning Que.
But seeing Dao Yuan's confident demeanor, Feng Youyou couldn't help but wonder to herself, could the Thief Alliance really not be as simple as it seems on the surface?
There might be more than one half-step Heavenly Dao Realm expert hiding in the shadows!
It should be noted that although the Thief Alliance had nearly twenty experts at the half-step Heavenly Dao Realm, not long ago, three of them were killed by Qin Feng.
However, it is unlikely that all of the remaining dozen or so people will be transferred to the True Spirit Continent.
After all, the Thief Alliance's goal was only for a small Lin, so there was no need for them to mobilize their entire force.
Thinking of this, Feng Youyou gently shook her head, no longer delving into the matter.
She gazed thoughtfully at Dao Yuan for a long time, then turned her gaze to Qin Feng beside her and said slowly, "I've said everything I needed to say. The rest is up to you. In short... take care of yourself!"
After saying this, Feng Youyou turned around and fled, disappearing into the horizon in the blink of an eye.
Qin Feng watched the direction Feng Youyou had gone and muttered to himself, "That woman was quite good; she's worth getting to know better!"
It's important to know that he and Feng Youyou didn't have a very close relationship.
However, he had just killed three of Feng Youyou's companions, and instead of pursuing the matter, they showed him goodwill.
For this reason alone, he deserves to befriend him!
At this moment, Su Liyue came to Qin Feng's side, teasing him with a playful expression. "What? Can't bear to part with that beauty? Then go after her!"
Qin Feng glanced at Su Liyue, but didn't reply. He transformed into a streak of light and fled northward.
"This guy seems guilty?" Su Liyue muttered to herself, then she and Dao Yuan and the other two flashed off to chase after Qin Feng.
...
Five days later.
Qin Feng and his group finally arrived safely near the entrance to the mysterious and awe-inspiring Icewind Mountain Temple.
At this time, a large number of people from various sects had gathered, roughly numbering over a hundred.
These people either chatted in small groups or stood alone in deep thought, creating an atmosphere that was both solemn and lively.
Among the bustling crowd, many sect leaders recognized Dao Yuan and Ning Que.
The sect leaders all came over to greet Daoyuan and Ning Que warmly.
For a time, greetings and pleasantries rose and fell, creating a lively atmosphere.
However, in this seemingly harmonious scene, two figures suddenly appeared, attracting everyone's attention.
It turned out that they were two uninvited guests—the Immortal Yuan Sect Master Chunyang Zhenren and the Purple Sun Sword Sect Master Wang Xianzhi!
Both of these individuals are prominent figures who command respect in their respective regions. Their sects, Immortal Origin Sect and Purple Sun Sword Sect, are located in the vast Southern Wilderness and are considered one of the three most famous sects in the area, alongside the Back Mountain Sect.
The three major sects, Kaoshan Sect, Xianyuan Immortal Sect, and Ziyang Sword Sect, are hostile to each other and often engage in fierce battles, both openly and secretly. They fight back and forth without giving way to each other, resulting in many casualties among their disciples.
However, despite the ongoing conflicts, all three parties have shown great restraint and have consistently avoided large-scale bloodshed.
Pure Yang Master's sharp, hawk-like gaze seemed to casually sweep over Qin Feng, but finally settled firmly on Dao Yuan.
He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, forming a half-smile, and said with undisguised sarcasm, "Heh, look at your Backing Sect, it seems your days are numbered!"
"They actually bestowed such an important temple spot on someone who is only at the early stage of the Primordial Saint Emperor realm! Could it be that this person has a deep-seated grudge against you?"
"So you deliberately gave him the spot, so he would come and die?"
Dao Yuan's expression was calm and composed, with a faint smile playing on his lips. He said softly, "Pure Yang True Man, don't always judge others by your own standards!"
"Our Relying Mountain Sect naturally has a comprehensive understanding and consideration of all matters. Although Qin Feng's current cultivation level is not high, cultivation level is not the only standard for measuring strength!"
Master Chunyang's lips curled up slightly, and he let out a soft "hehe" laugh.
He slowly opened his mouth and said, "You're right, realm cannot be the sole criterion for judging strength!"
However, he immediately changed the subject, raised his right hand and pointed at Qin Feng, commenting with a face full of disdain: "But in my opinion, this person is just an ordinary, unremarkable person, and I really can't find anything special about him!"
At this point, Master Chunyang crossed his arms in front of his chest, his expression remarkably confident, as if he had no doubt about his judgment.
Upon hearing this, Daoyuan curled his lip in dismissive disdain. "Hmph, whatever you say!"
Seeing Dao Yuan's attitude, Pure Yang Zhenren frowned slightly, pondering to himself. He had originally thought that Dao Yuan would continue to argue with him, but he hadn't expected the other party to give up so quickly.
So, Master Chunyang turned his gaze to Qin Feng, secretly wondering, "Could this person really have something special about him?"
Just as Chunyang Zhenren was sizing up Qin Feng, Qin Feng seemed to sense something, raised his eyes to look at Chunyang Zhenren, his gaze calm and profound.
This single glance sent a shiver down Chunyang Zhenren's spine.
This kid definitely has something going on!
Master Chunyang frowned slightly, putting away his contempt for Qin Feng.
Dao Yuan isn't stupid; how could he possibly give a spot to someone who isn't strong enough to enter the temple?
Wang Xianzhi's gaze also fell on Qin Feng at this moment, and he could also see that Qin Feng was not simple.
"Hehe, Daoyuan, it seems your judgment is as good as ever!"
Wang Xianzhi looked at Daoyuan with a half-smile and said, "I wonder if this person will be able to come out of the temple alive?"
"You should know that very few people who have entered the temple in the past have ever come out alive!"
