An Zijin and Lu Yang's slight depression due to their own aptitude vanished instantly after hearing Ji Fengyao's words.
The words "family" warmed the hearts of An Zijin and Lu Yang.
As independent cultivators, most of their family members had passed away over a long period of time.
For these two people, who are all alone, to hear these words again in the vast world is incredibly precious.
Poor aptitude is innate, and depression won't help.
Meeting such a good master is a blessing they could never hope for in several lifetimes, so what more could they ask for?
"Thank you, Miss," An Zijin said with a warm smile, but her expression suddenly turned serious. "By the way, Miss, as you instructed, I have been carefully watching the movements of the disciples of Feilu Peak, the Second Peak, and the Third Peak, and I have not found anyone suspicious."
“Me too, the disciples of the fourth and fifth peaks are not suspicious either,” Xique added.
“There are too many outer disciples, but I paid special attention to all the alchemists with ranks, and none of them were suspicious,” Lu Yang also said.
Ji Fengyao remained silent, lost in thought.
Once inside Ghost Face's room, while checking the extent of Ghost Face's injury recovery, he casually asked, "Ghost Face, do you still feel like you're being watched?"
Ghost Face lay there lazily, enjoying the female master's care for him, and said, "Hmm, after you finished your tribulation, this feeling became more severe. I suppose he was also affected by your tribulation and is now even more eager to kill Ghost Face."
“Then it seems he has indeed infiltrated the Pill Sect.” Ji Fengyao nodded, stood up and turned to Xique, An Zijin and Lu Yang, saying, “Since there is nothing unusual about the disciples of the four peaks and the outer alchemists, he is likely mixed in with those medicine apprentices.”
Lu Yang, go to Fei Lu Peak and find the Grand Elder and Song Chengzhou. Ask them to come up with a way to focus on investigating the medicine boys guarding the gate.
We must check each one carefully, leaving no stone unturned.
Even if Jiu Yue could access the memories of someone being controlled, it would be impossible for him to do so without showing any abnormalities.
"Yes, Miss!" Lu Yang immediately accepted the order and left.
Wu Dongyu rushed back from outside. Upon entering, he first nervously looked Ji Fengyao over. Seeing that she was unharmed, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Yao'er, what happened just now? That lightning tribulation looked so terrifying."
When this was mentioned, Ji Fengyao was also completely baffled: "Would you believe me if I said I didn't know what happened either?"
Wu Dongyu: "???"
An Zijin: "???"
Magpie and Ghost Face: "Is there a problem?"
Ji Fengyao sighed helplessly and said, "At first I was also panicked. I even ran into the Tower of Life to avoid disaster. But the moment I went in, I suddenly realized that the tribulation lightning was not just scary on the surface. It was all pure energy inside, so I went back out."
The group: "..."
Miss is probably just trying to coax us into cultivating hard so we can go and play with the tribulation lightning!
"Don't you believe me? What I'm saying is true!" Ji Fengyao exclaimed, "That tribulation lightning was all bark and no bite. I even used the energy inside to break through my bottleneck and advance!"
"Alright, alright, Miss, I believe you." Xi Que couldn't bear to see Ji Fengyao practically swearing an oath anymore, so with a "I believe you" expression, she patted her shoulder reassuringly.
Ji Fengyao: "..."
