Ye Feng finally took advantage of the night and escaped the woman's pursuit before the disciples of Xingyue Palace arrived.
On the way back to the Soul Refining Palace, Ye Feng's mood at this moment can be said to be mixed, with all kinds of feelings, sweet, sour, bitter and spicy.
First of all, he learned that his mother was indeed trapped in the Star-Moon Palace, and from their conversation, he also learned that the Palace Master of the Star-Moon Palace treated his mother with great courtesy and did not persecute her at all.
This discovery was a great joy for Ye Feng, because now that he was sure his mother was in the Xingyue Palace, he could find a way to rescue her.
However, when he thought of the scene of fighting with the woman just now, Ye Feng suddenly felt very disappointed, because the woman who fought with him was just a subordinate of the Palace Master, but she could have such a high level of spiritual cultivation, so the Palace Master's cultivation must be even more immeasurable.
Ye Feng knew clearly that if he had fought with the woman today during the day, he would definitely not be her opponent.
Because of the spiritual cultivation strength of the Xingyue Palace, Ye Feng was unable to move forward in rescuing his mother.
And what was the connection between what he heard them talking about, Tianfeng's sleeping and awakening, and his mother's paintings of Tianfeng
Thinking of this, Ye Feng silently made up his mind to master the mental skills and sword techniques on the Invincible Sword Monument as soon as possible.
Only by mastering the mental methods and mantras on the Invincible Sword Monument can all the worries and doubts that you have can be easily resolved.
While thinking all the way, Ye Feng had already rushed back to the residence of the inner disciples.
That night, Ye Feng did not sleep all night, his mind was full of thoughts on how to practice invincible swordsmanship.
Early the next morning, the new disciples went to the martial arts training ground.
Ye Feng woke up early in the morning and went to the training ground with all the new disciples to practice the breathing method of the Soul Refining Palace.
"A year's plan starts with spring, a day's plan starts with the morning. A warrior is a man of energy. When the energy is strong, the body is healthy. When the body is healthy, the blood is vigorous, which is the godhood..."
The coach of the new disciples was a middle-aged fat man. At this moment, he was standing in front of the new disciples, facing the waterfall beside the martial arts training ground, waving his palms and chanting the Qi Refining Technique of the Spirit Refining Palace in rhythm.
At the same time, in a side hall of the Soul Refining Palace, two people were whispering.
"Master, take what you said seriously! Was it really father's decision to send the sword?"
"Nephew Qin Huan, what your uncle said is true. If you don't go to your father, the person who will give you the sword will be decided!"
It turned out that the two people who were whispering were none other than Qin Huan and Lu Zhen.
They were talking about the Soul Refining Palace going to the Four Seasons Sword Sect to deliver swords.
"Brother-in-law Qin Huan, as long as you can convince your father to send Ye Feng to Four Seasons Sword Sect to deliver the sword, we can set up an ambush on the way and get rid of him without anyone noticing. Secondly, we can work hard in Four Seasons Sword Sect and make him stay in the abandoned Sword Mountain of Four Seasons Sword Sect forever. So, as long as Ye Feng embarks on the road of delivering the sword, it is equivalent to embarking on the road to the underworld where he will die!"
Lu Zhen said this with a sinister look on his face, because he had never forgotten the humiliation he suffered from Ye Feng from beginning to end.
And Qin Huan, ever since he was humiliated by Ye Feng again in the side hall, now he hates Ye Feng to the core, so when he heard Lu Zhen talk about this plan, he hurriedly said: "Uncle Master, I will go find father right now, and Uncle Master, just wait for my good news!"
After saying this, Qin Huan hurriedly ran towards his father's study.
In the study of Qin Tian, the grandmaster of the Palace of Refining Spirits, a middle-aged man with an imposing manner and a strong build was conveying the orders of the Palace Master of the Palace of Refining Spirits to a white-haired old man in front of him.
"Fu Lei, take the disciples on the list to the Four Seasons Sword Sect and give the Snow Sword used to refine the divine sword to our junior brother Nie Qingfeng!"
"Yes! Sect Master Qin! Fu Lei will definitely fulfill his mission and hand the Snow Sword to Sect Master Nie!"
"Fu Lei, this is the last time that our Refining Spirit Palace will send swords to the Four Seasons Sword Sect. The Spring Sword, Summer Sword, and Wind Sword of Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter have all been handed over to the Four Seasons Sword Sect. Now that the final Snow Sword has been delivered, we have completed our mission! As for whether they can refine the Four Seasons Sword Formation to kill the demons, it depends on their luck!"
It turned out that the two people who were talking in the study were none other than the imposing middle-aged man among them, Qin Huan's father, Master Qin Tian, one of the seven masters of the Soul Refining Palace.
The old man who stayed in the study with him was Fu Lei, the sword-making master of the Refining Spirit Palace.
After receiving the order, Fu Lei left the study.
... ...
In the Sword Forging Hall of the Soul Refining Palace, Fu Lei had already called all the disciples on the list, and they were all gathered in the palace.
The sword in the golden scabbard on Fu Lei's back, with a small red cloth tied to the hilt, is the Snow Sword that the Refining Spirit Palace sent to the Four Seasons Sword Sect.
The disciples of the Soul Refining Palace present were all inner disciples. Their soul refining skills had already reached the intermediate "spiritual energy" realm. It could be said that each of them was an outstanding master of the Soul Refining Palace.
After Fu Lei finished reading the names on the list, all ten people arrived, but Fu Lei still did not announce the departure. He looked a little confused, because just after he received the order to leave Qin Tian's study, Qin Huan brought him Qin Tian's handwritten letter, ordering him to add another disciple to escort him on the journey to protect the sword.
Originally, Fu Lei thought that Qin Tian sent another capable disciple to protect the Snow Sword because of its importance, but he did not expect to hear that the additional disciple was actually an entry-level disciple.
Therefore, Fu Lei was waiting for the arrival of the last sword-guarding disciple Ye Feng with anxiety and confusion at this moment.
In fact, Fu Lei was not the only one who knew that the sect leader had added a junior disciple. The ten people present also knew about it, so they had disdainful expressions on their faces and were whispering about Ye Feng.
"I don't know why the sect leader would send a junior disciple to go with us!"
"Yes! Although the round trip only takes one day, the Lion's Mouth halfway is a dangerous place. It is difficult for a junior disciple like him to pass through, let alone protect the sword!"
... ...
Fu Lei, who was standing beside them, heard their whispers about Ye Feng. He did not stop them because he had the same thoughts and doubts as these disciples at this moment.
I have no idea what the sect leader is thinking. Why would he send a junior disciple along
Just when Fu Lei was deeply confused, two young men came in from outside the hall. One of them was Ye Feng, and the other was an inner sect disciple.
"Disciple Yang Bing is here on the orders of the sect master to send off the sword-guarding disciple Ye Feng!" After Yang Bing finished speaking, he whispered a few words into Fu Lei's ear, then stood up and said goodbye.
Hearing Yang Bing's whisper, Fu Lei glanced at Ye Feng and snorted in his heart: "Fawning on the powerful, despicable guy!"
Because he knew from Yang Bing's words the real reason why Ye Feng went to protect the sword. It was actually all arranged by Qin Huan. On the surface, it was to protect the sword, but in fact, he wanted to make a contribution in the process of protecting the sword and become an inner disciple in the future.
However, these words were just Yang Bing's speculation. The ignorant sword-making master Fu Lei did not think of these. What he also did not think of and could not think of was that Ye Feng's spiritual cultivation at this moment was higher than any inner disciple present.
"Ye Feng, the apprentice disciple of the Spirit Refining Palace, has been ordered by the sect master to come and join the ranks of sword protectors!" When Ye Feng just walked over and saw the way the people present were looking at him, he already knew why.
Still three words, look down on! They thought they were all inner disciples of the Soul Refining Palace, and their cultivation was at the intermediate "Spiritual Qi" realm, while Ye Feng was just a junior disciple whose cultivation was only at the "lower Spirit Qi" realm. Compared with them, there was a world of difference.
After hearing Ye Feng's report, Fu Lei looked at Ye Feng carefully and said with disdain: "You are Ye Feng! You are here with us to go to the Four Seasons Sword Sect to protect the sword!"
"Yes! You must be the sword-making master Fu Lei! Ye Feng meets Fu..."
"No, no! I am just an old swordsmith. I dare not trouble Ye Feng to do such a great honor!" Fu Lei's words were obviously full of sarcasm. He continued, "Ye Feng, do you know that the journey to the Four Seasons Sword Sect is full of dangers?"
"Reporting to the Master, Ye Feng knows that the most dangerous place on the entire journey is Lion's Mouth. It is said that there are cultivator bandits lurking in Lion's Mouth!" Ye Feng said.
Seeing Ye Feng mention the Cultivation Bandit and the Lion's Mouth, Fu Lei deliberately frowned and said solemnly: "In that case, why do you, Ye Feng, still want to go? Let me tell you, the Cultivation Bandit in the Lion's Mouth, the lowest level of spiritual cultivation is also the peak level of lower spiritual cultivation, and you are just an entry-level disciple of lower spiritual cultivation! So, Ye Feng, you should stay in the Refining Spirit Palace and live your life as a young master!"
How could Ye Feng miss this opportunity to give the sword as a gift? Because only by giving the sword to the Four Seasons Sword Sect could he have the chance to enter the Four Seasons Sword Sect and have the opportunity to enter the abandoned Sword Mountain of the Four Seasons Sword Sect and take a look inside the Sword Mountain to see if it was really the same as in his previous life before he traveled through time and space, and find the Venus Sword in the abandoned Sword Mountain.
So Ye Feng said in a serious tone: "Reporting to the Sword Master, I, Ye Feng, am not afraid!"
"You are not afraid, but I am. If anything happens to you on this trip, how can I explain to the sect leader when I return?" Fu Lei said.
After hearing Fu Lei's explanation to the sect leader, the mystery of why Qin Huan suddenly asked him to go to the Four Seasons Sword Sect was solved.
It turns out that the reason why Qin Huan asked him to go to the Four Seasons Sword Sect to guard the sword was to put himself in danger so that he could get rid of him with the help of others.
While Ye Feng was confused, the sword-guarding disciples present were all talking about Ye Feng.
"Humph, with just your basic cultivation level of lower spirit energy, you think you are worthy of working with us! Don't you even consider how much you weigh!"
"That's right, he's still protecting the sword? I think he wants us to protect him. What a burden!"
"It's more than just a burden, it's a disaster!"
