They walked side by side and started going down the mountain, after walking for some distance, they finally spotted a woman, she looked around 23 or 24 years old and was even more beautiful than Huo Meiling, it was still the peak area, so she was definitely a genius too.
The woman was standing casually beside the tree, looking towards the sect, Lin Feng was stunned when he saw her cultivation realm, she was at the peak of the Spirit Origin realm. Does she really live in this area?
When the woman looked towards them, she was surprised, the fact that Lin Feng and Huo Meiling were coming from the top of the mountain means they are new utmost geniuses of the sect.
The second thing that stunned her was the appearance of Lin Feng, he was just too handsome. Even she got mesmerized for a second, "You guys joined today?"
It was pretty obvious because there was definitely no one on the peak before.
Lin Feng smiled charmingly, "Yes, we have just arrived, senior sister." Lin Feng felt a similar desire in her eyes which he felt in Huo Meiling, but it was far less and totally restrained.
This was surprising for him, he didn’t expect this kind of control from someone who is in a dual cultivation sect, suddenly a thought came to his mind, and he used a very small amount of yang in his eyes to see her purity.
This much of yang qi wouldn’t be detectable, and when he looked at her, he was surprised again, she had her purity intact, no doubt, but there was another thing which surprised him, she had highly concentrated yin type qi. This means she had a yin-related physique.
He doubted that it was a supreme grade physique, but it was definitely a fine physique.
Now he understood about whom elder Yan was talking about.
There was one thing he couldn’t understand, how was she able to maintain her purity till now. No matter how righteous a dual cultivation sect is, it’s just for appearance.
They would definitely not let such a fine disciple waste her potential, they definitely would have pushed her towards choosing a partner. They might even have used underhanded tactics... so how?
"So, are you two related to each other?" The woman asked.
It was quite surprising to see two members getting selected for the inner sect on the same day, and the way they were walking closely with each other means they are acquainted.
Lin Feng was about to speak when Huo Meiling beat him to it, "We just met today before joining the sect."
The woman was surprised, "That’s interesting, you two met by chance and yet qualified to be in the inner sect together. It is quite a rare occurrence.
So, you two have decided to become partners? Maybe fate had guided you two, so it really seems perfect for you to become partners."
Huo Meiling immediately shook her head, "N-No, we are just friends, senior sister, I-I already have a fiancé, he is in the outer sect."
Huo Meiling couldn’t sense her cultivation realm, unlike Lin Feng. She just called her senior sister because Lin Feng was calling her that.
The woman’s eyes widened, "Then why are you two..." She wanted to ask, why are they walking like partners. Well, she had seen many people cheat on each other here, so she wasn’t much shocked.
Lin Feng shook his head, "You got it wrong, senior sister, we are just acting like partners so that others don’t approach us while exploring the sect."
The woman was amused but nodded, "That is a nice idea, but given your looks, I doubt it will matter, they will still approach, switching partners is quite common here.
Anyway, since I am getting bored a little, I will join you, that way you guys won’t have to worry about that."
Lin Feng was more than happy with this development, if he can talk with her, then there was a chance he can get more information than from other inner disciples present here, "Thank you, senior sister, that will be wonderful, I am Lin Hao."
Huo Meiling bowed too, "My name is Huo Meiling."
The woman nodded, "My name is Xie Ruyue, let’s go."
Xie Ruyue walked together with Huo Meiling, and Lin Feng maintained a little distance from them.
"So, are you guys from the Eastern Region?" Xie Ruyue asked.
"No, we came from the Northern Region," Huo Meiling answered.
Xie Ruyue frowned a little, but it wasn’t noticeable, she knew about the upcoming war, so she had a feeling why their families might have sent them here, she didn’t mention it though.
"Senior sister Xie, can I ask you something, if you don’t mind, that is?" Lin Feng decided it was right to become a little acquainted.
Xie Ruyue looked back at him and nodded, "I hardly get angry, so don’t worry, go ahead and ask," she really found Lin Feng pleasing to her eyes. She had seen a fair share of handsome men, but none were his level.
"Well, elder Yan had mentioned that you didn’t want to cultivate the sect’s main cultivation technique, is there a reason for it?" Lin Feng had heard from elder Yan that it was because she hadn’t found a partner... but did she even try to look for one?
"So, elder Yan was the one who tested you guys, hmm... Well, I never found a suitable partner, simple," Xie Ruyue shrugged her shoulders.
"Or maybe you never tried to find one?" Lin Feng didn’t want to leave it so easily, since she had said that she won’t get angry, he would test her limits.
"Are you trying to rile me up? Oh well... actually, it is true. I don’t pick someone just because they are good-looking, I want someone who is worthy of me, who can really walk the path of the Dao with me till the end.
You see, I really don’t need the sect’s main cultivation technique because of some special circumstances.
Due to this, I can still cultivate with very fine speed, no doubt if I cultivate the sect’s main technique, then the results will be better, but I have no intention to lose my dignity to just anyone."
