"Who are they?"
"One is definitely senior sister Xie."
"Are you dumb? Even I know that. I am asking about those other two."
"Then why the hell are you even asking that question, how would I even know if you don’t know about it you fool?"
"Hey, by any chance, is the insanely handsome guy senior sister’s partner?" One of the guys couldn’t help but ask.
Others became stunned.
"Given his looks, I wouldn’t be surprised if it is true," another guy commented.
"Tsk... what do you know, senior sister told me once she was looking for someone worthy, she didn’t care much about looks," one of the women said.
...
Xie Ruyue sighed, with her hearing, it was easy to listen to them with her senses.
She had an initial feeling that others will assume Lin Hao as her partner, she didn’t care about it. Come to think of it, in the whole sect, if anyone really was worthy of her, then it was him.
His accomplishments won’t be any lower than hers in the future, wasn’t this what she was looking for, not to mention his looks... should she... forget it, she will observe him first, "Junior brother, are you looking for a partner?"
Lin Feng shrugged his shoulders, "If I found someone attractive, then why not?"
Xie Ruyue raised her eyebrows, "So you don’t care about her personality?"
Lin Feng shook his head, "Why would I, I came here to cultivate, not to find a modest woman to marry." He really had no intention to form deep bonds here, he will leave after his mission is over.
"At least you know your priority, junior brother, this sect is perfect for you," Xie Ruyue nodded in approval.
"Don’t get angry, senior sister, but I would say that Frozen Heart Sect would have been perfect for you," Lin Feng stated as a matter of fact.
"True, junior brother, but I was a young maiden who really was looking for someone to walk the path of the Dao.
Now I understand that I could have walked the path alone, only when you grow up, you understand some things better... but nonetheless, I am still trying to live with that dream, maybe I will really find someone."
Xie Ruyue sighed in melancholy, she had a little hope now that Lin Hao had come. She didn’t mind that he was promiscuous, someone with his constitution is bound to have that trait.
Men didn’t care about their dignity anyway, so they don’t try to control their lust, not to mention not everyone has a strong will like her.
Suddenly, a qi barrier covered them, it was from Xie Ruyue, "Now, I can’t even leave even if I want to, my worth has protected me, similarly, if I try to leave, then my worth will be the reason for my death.
They have even increased their surveillance on me, if I go on a mission, then I have to wear a special robe, which cannot be taken off unless I am in my abode."
Lin Feng sighed, it was true, how can a sect like Yin Yang Harmony Sect let her go easily. They are even tolerating her stubbornness because of her worth, "Senior sister Xie, don’t remove the barrier, I wanted to ask you something."
Xie Ruyue became even more curious about what he wanted to ask about that needs a barrier.
Lin Feng decided to start with simple questions, "Is it true that Yin Yang Harmony Sect is planning to attack Frozen Heart Sect?"
Huo Meiling got stunned, she really didn’t know about something like that...
Xie Ruyue nodded, "You are well-informed, very few people know about it, but yes, it is true."
Huo Meiling’s eyes widened, "Really..." Suddenly, she remembered why Lin Feng had asked them if joining this sect was their idea or their clan’s... so this was why their clans had sent them here.
"This is the reason we are getting some disciples from northern region, and you guys are definitely here because of that reason too," Xie Ruyue spoke.
Lin Feng shook his head, "I would have joined Yin Yang Harmony Sect sooner or later given my constitution, so I am here only for cultivating."
Xie Ruyue nodded, it was true, this sect was really best for him.
"Although, I really don’t care if they go to war or not... but I am a little curious, why now? I have heard that the current sect master of Frozen Heart Sect is quite strong, far stronger than previous ones, so attacking them seems a foolish decision," Lin Feng decided to dig a little deeper.
"Well, I have only heard that Crimson Flame Palace is joining hands with us... and there is some treasure we have gotten which has convinced them completely.
What treasure it is, no one knows other than elders or some few strongest core disciples, even they must have taken heavenly oaths to not disclose it," Xie Ruyue said calmly.
Lin Feng wasn’t disappointed, he had expected this outcome. He decided to stop here now, there is a very thin line between being curious and being obvious.
They had already arrived at the bottom, there was a large open area in front of them, the whole area was filled with pavilions and disciples, there were some disciples who were selling some treasures too.
"This is the main area of the inner sect, those disciples are selling the treasures which they have basically looted outside of the sect, they can get a better price this way.
Some of them are genuine, talisman makers, Alchemist, and weapon makers, if you want to sell treasure, then you can do it here."
Lin Feng’s eyes lit up a little, he had sufficient experience in making talismans, pills, and weapons, it was similarly passed to him from a dream just like his battle sense. It’s just his strength is too low, so he can’t create better talismans and pills and low level pills didn’t encite him.
That’s why he never felt the need to do so, not to mention he could get anything from the sect’s main treasury.
But now he can use one of the professions to increase his popularity here quite easily, Alchemist is always considered the most profitable profession, so that will be the best choice, "Senior sister Xie, from where do these Alchemist get their spirit herbs?"
