Evil Master and Disciple

Chapter 1532 Drawbacks

The next day, it was dawn.

When Ye Feng woke up from his meditation, the campfire had already gone out. Ling Yunzhi and Qin Ying were still meditating, but he didn't see Chu Liunian.

Ye Feng got up and walked out of the long-abandoned main hall, where he saw a blurry and hazy slender figure standing not far away, facing east.

At this moment, the eastern sky begins to lighten with the first hint of dawn, and the earth begins to awaken from its slumber.

Chu Liunian held the yellowish-brown Sanzhier in his arms, calmly watching the red glow in the east, with the continuous mountain range stretching out before him.

She was watching the sunrise, and also looking back at the path she had come from.

That's the direction of the Jade Maiden Sect.

"Squeak..."

Sanzhier let out a low squeak.

Chu Liunian glanced sideways and saw Ye Feng, disguised as a handsome young man, standing beside her.

Ye Feng looked at Chu Liunian, whose hair was gently swaying in the morning breeze.

Although Chu Liunian is currently in disguise and doesn't resemble her original appearance, the way her temples brush against her face still makes her breathtakingly beautiful.

The two looked at each other without speaking. It seemed that the two, who had not met many times, had already developed a high degree of tacit understanding without realizing it.

The two stood side by side, quietly watching the rising sun slowly break through the horizon in the east, rising gently from beneath the mountains.

They are all young, their lives have just begun, and aren't they like the rising sun?

Chu Liunian said softly, "You are the first man to accompany me to watch the sunrise. I shouldn't be the first woman to accompany you to watch the sunrise."

Ye Feng smiled awkwardly and did not answer.

Chu Liunian wasn't the kind of spoiled girl who got jealous over everything. She was jealous of Biyao because Ye Feng and Biyao slept together.

Whether Ye Feng was watching the sunrise, sunset, moon, or stars with others, Chu Liunian didn't care.

Because she had only known Ye Feng for a short time, their shared memories were almost entirely from that ancient underground ruin beneath the capital city.

To avoid Chu Liunian bringing up topics that would embarrass Ye Feng, Ye Feng took the initiative to steer the conversation toward serious matters.

"Xingyun, what do you think of this place compared to the Tianqing Peak Fengji Temple ruins we visited yesterday?"

Chu Liunian glanced around and said, "Although the mountains here are not as towering as Tianqing Peak, this place is more suitable for establishing a sect."

Otherwise, Tongyuan Temple, which once stood here, wouldn't have persisted in this location for so many years.

Once the conversation turned to serious matters, Chu Liunian immediately emerged from her sentimental reverie and seemed to revert to the capable and efficient Fairy Liunian of the Jade Maiden Sect.

Last night, Ling Yunzhi explained the general situation around Tongyuan Temple to Chu Liunian.

From its geographical location to the righteous sects and independent cultivators' caves within a hundred miles of Tianyun Mountain, only the Qingyun Pavilion, besides the Yunhai Sect, could obtain such detailed data about Tianyun Mountain.

Chu Liunian told Ye Feng that the location, housing, and other aspects of this place were very suitable for a newly established sect like the Holy Maiden Sect.

The only drawback is that about eighty miles southwest of Tongyuan Temple, on Fengqi Mountain, there is a righteous sect called Fenglei Sect.

The Wind and Thunder Sect is not a small sect, but a sect several times larger than the Fallen Blossom Sect. In the Tianyun Mountains, its strength ranks among the top ten.

The sect leader's name is Zhang Fuchen, and his Daoist name is Tianchenzi. He is quite old, reportedly over six hundred years old, even older than Master Yunyi. It is said that his cultivation has reached the Transformation Realm.

Of course, these are just rumors; no one knows for sure whether Zhang Fuchen has actually reached the Transformation Realm.

However, to live to be six hundred years old and still alive, even if one has not reached the Transformation Realm, one must definitely be at the peak of the Celestial Realm, making one a top-tier expert in the mortal world.

Although Longteng Mountain, where Tongyuan Temple is located, is eighty miles away from Fengqi Mountain, with the strength of the Fenglei Sect, these eighty miles are completely within the Fenglei Sect's sphere of influence.

After listening to Chu Liunian's explanation, Ye Feng said, "So, if the Fenglei Sect doesn't agree to the Saintess Sect establishing a sect here, then no matter how suitable this place is for us, we have no choice but to give up?"

Chu Liunian looked at Ye Feng and said, "How can we allow others to snore beside our bed? No sect would sincerely agree to other sects establishing their own sects near us. As long as the new site of the Holy Maiden Sect is found in the Tianyun Mountains, it is impossible to avoid a situation similar to that of the Fallen Blossom Sect."

Although this place is still within the influence of the Fenglei Sect, it is eighty miles away from Phoenix Perch Mountain. According to the rules of the righteous path, the core area of ​​the Fenglei Sect should be within a radius of sixty miles centered on Phoenix Perch Mountain.

This place is outside the core territory of the Wind and Thunder Sect. Even if the Wind and Thunder Sect disagrees with the Holy Maiden Sect establishing a sect here, they cannot directly use force to drive them away like the Fallen Blossom Sect did.

Ye Feng looked miserable and said, "Even if the Fenglei Sect has no reason to expel us by force, the Fenglei Sect is a large and powerful family. They can easily make the Saintess Sect suffer with just a few tricks. It seems that this place is not suitable. We still need to go to other places to investigate."

Having been in this world for so long, Ye Feng has a fairly thorough understanding of its survival rules.

This is a world where reason doesn't matter and only fists matter.

The Wind and Thunder Sect is very powerful, with three to four thousand members. It is one of the larger sects in the Tianyun Mountains and an important part of the entire Yunhai Sect system.

It's not comparable to a small sect like the Luo Ying Sect that lives in a remote corner.

Ye Feng only needs to deploy Xiong Ge alone to directly confront Luo Yingzong.

However, Luan Xiong was no match for the Fenglei Sect.

Roughly estimated, the Wind and Thunder Sect has at least thirty or forty experts above the Celestial Realm, and most likely there are top experts at the Void Transformation Realm in charge, and there may be more than one top expert at the Void Transformation Realm.

Let alone Xiong Ge, even if his godfather came himself, he couldn't protect him.

Chu Liunian glanced at Ye Feng and said with some surprise, "You've given up on this place so quickly? I thought you would put pressure on the Fenglei Sect through the Yunhai Sect."

Ye Feng smiled bitterly, "Although Yunhai Sect is the leader of Tianyun Mountain Range, there are too many Tianyun Mountain Ranges. Yunhai Sect is more than a thousand miles away from here, so it can't reach here at all. Right now, Saintess Sect needs a quiet place and time. If we really choose this place as the new site, we will have to spend most of our time dealing with Fenglei Sect in the future. It's not worth it. We should find another place as soon as possible."

Chu Liunian was surprised that Ye Feng, at such a young age, not only had a clear understanding of this matter but also a long-term plan.

Actually, choosing this location for the new site of the Holy Maiden Sect is not impossible. If Ye Feng can get the higher-ups of the Cloud Sea Sect to intervene, or if he can get Jade Dragon Venerable to mediate, it is possible to persuade the Wind and Thunder Sect. At least this would prevent the Holy Maiden Sect from being harassed by the Wind and Thunder Sect in the short term. If the Holy Maiden Sect maintains a population of only a few hundred, the Wind and Thunder Sect will not regard the Holy Maiden Sect as a threat.

However, Ye Feng did not use the back door of the Yunhai Sect.

Ye Feng was the sect leader of the Holy Maiden Sect. Since he had decided to find a new location, Chu Liunian didn't say anything more.
