Volume 2: Star Sword Manual Chapter 107: It Was You (Part 2)
Second watch
——————————————————————————————
As expected, Yi Feng had just walked to the door when a white light suddenly flashed before his eyes, and then he felt a strong surge of true yuan energy that sent him flying backward. Despite thinking he still had some skills, Yi Feng couldn't help but retreat repeatedly, his body almost falling to the ground.
"Who are you?" The woman in white clothes had a slight wrinkle, but her face had some blood color, no longer so pale, and a faint question still revealed a few calmness.
Yi Feng couldn't help but admire in his heart: "This woman has a more ethereal and otherworldly quality than Han Yanyu, like a lotus flower, pure and holy. She is many times more beautiful than Yunfeng."
Yi Feng remained silent for a long time, the woman's eyebrows slightly furrowed, her beautiful eyes shining brightly, and she was actually using her spiritual awareness to probe Yi Feng's true strength.
Yi Feng only had the initial cultivation of Jindan, and he hadn't practiced any advanced techniques for gathering his breath. The woman looked at him with a piercing gaze and said in surprise, "You are a disciple of my Sword Sect?"
Yi Feng was shocked, then suddenly enlightened ——
This woman must have seen the sword in her own dantian, so she would have such doubts.
Yi Feng's mind was racing, but he had never been to Jianzong and knew very little about it. He wanted to pretend, but he would definitely be exposed soon. It was better to tell the truth, after all, he wasn't a big villain. This woman should be the Dream Xianzi who saved him when he was young.
The woman saw Yi Feng remaining silent, her eyes still staring straight at him, and she secretly cursed him as a useless man, letting out a cold snort.
Yi Feng immediately regained his composure, calmed down and replied: "I am Yi Feng, not a disciple of the Lingxu Sword Sect, but a disciple of the Yunfu Sect on this planet. Is the fairy maiden the Mengyan Fairy Maiden of the Lingxu Sword Sect?"
"Huh? If you're not a disciple of my Sword Sect, how do you know me? My sect and your Yunfu Sect have never had any dealings with each other." Meng Yan asked in surprise.
"Does the fairy still remember a night fifty years ago, when Beimiao Temple and a demon king named Yīngmó fought, and whether they saved a thin child?" Yì Fēng asked uncertainly. In fact, he didn't remember things very clearly at that time either.
"Hmm..." Dreamy Fairy paused for a moment, as if recalling something, and then said, "Yes, that's what happened."
Yi Feng heard this and felt a sense of relief in his heart. He immediately took out the jade token and handed it to Meng Yan's fairy to take a look.
Meng Yan Xianzi took the jade token and said in surprise: "That child is actually you! In just fifty years, not only have you entered the Xiūzhēn school, but you also have a Jīndān period cultivation, and you've even condensed your sword heart. It seems that saving you back then was also a good deed."
Meng Yan's words were clear and elegant, her demeanor was dignified and refined, making Yi Feng admire her endlessly.
Yi Feng smiled awkwardly, scratched his head, and bowed to say: "Speaking of which, Yi Feng still wants to thank the immortal for saving his life. Please accept my bow!" After finishing speaking, his body sank a few more inches.
Meng Yan Xianzi stretched out her hand to support him, saying: "You don't have to thank me. At that time, I was fighting against the demon head, and you were just accidentally caught up in it. How could I bear to see you being harmed by our battle? By the way, since you are not a disciple of my Sword Sect, how did you form your sword heart? Moreover, this is a secret altar set up by my Sword Sect in this cultivation star system, with a maze outside and restrictions blocking the way. How did you get in?"
"Hmm..." This time, it was Yi Feng's turn to be at a loss for words. After a moment of contemplation, Yi Feng replied: "I also stumbled upon this place by mistake, but I've been wandering around that maze for a very long time, maybe I just got lucky and took the right path. As for the seal at the entrance, it was indeed me who broke it open, but when you broke that seal, didn't you feel like the seal wasn't particularly powerful?"
Although it was intentional perfunctoriness and deception, after all, it's better than saying nothing at all. Yi Feng absolutely cannot tell the truth on these matters, as the existence of Zhan Tian and Zhan Tian Sword are his greatest reliance for survival in this perilous world of cultivation.
