“Who is that?” asked Ye Feng.

Zhou Jiacai frowned slightly and said, “That’s a tough character, I don’t know the exact name, only that the person is the Great Elder of the ‘Tyrant Blade Sect,’ one of the three high-ranked sects in Whitefloat City, whose cultivation level has already reached the peak of the ninth layer of Qi Refinement.”

Even Xin Guangxuan said, “This white-browed elder is indeed a tough figure, with a strong aura. Even as a sect disciple, I might not be a match for him.”

Upon hearing this, both Ye Feng and Zhou Jiacai were taken aback.

“The elder once attempted to break through to the Element Gathering Realm but seems to have failed, expanding his meridians and Qi Sea in the process. He has cultivated for a long time, must possess many spells of the Perfect Stage, and is very strong,” explained Xin Guangxuan. “Moreover, he has a mount.”

Zhou Jiacai nodded, “That mount is called the ‘Mighty Fierce Tiger’ and is at the high-rank Demon Soldier level. It’s said the Tyrant Blade Sect suffered great losses to capture this tiger for their Great Elder.”

Ye Feng touched his chin and said, “The peak of the ninth layer of Qi Refinement plus a fierce tiger as a mount, indeed very strong!”

In Ye Feng’s view, that was at least the standard of three Brother Flatheads, nearly sixty percent as powerful as him.

“Let’s go to the Scripture Pavilion and, while we’re at it, settle Sect Master Ye’s salary for this month,” Zhou Jiacai said.

“I couldn’t ask for more!” Ye Feng laughed.

During lunch, Ye Feng had negotiated with Zhou Jiacai to teach at the Black Armored Guard headquarters for one or half a day each month, with the salary settled the same day at one hundred lower-grade Spirit Stones.

Tyrant Blade Sect.

The Great Elder, with a long blade on his back, stood before the Sect Leader of Heixuan Gate. Pointing to the portrait on the table, he spoke with a somber gaze, “Today on the street, I believe I encountered the man you described.”

If Ye Feng were here, he would notice the person in the portrait resembled him by about eighty percent, albeit drawn a bit uglily.

“Who is he?” the Sect Leader of Heixuan Gate clenched his fists.

After checking, the Tyrant Blade Grand Elder said, “This person is Ye Feng, the Sect Leader of the lower-ranked Misty Sect, just a mere mortal.”

“Impossible!” the Sect Leader of Heixuan Gate slapped the table in anger, “A person who could break the Four Spirits Sword Array, and you’re telling me he’s a mortal?”

“We can only say that he has hidden himself very well and that… Ye Feng has close ties with the City Lord’s Mansion and Liuyun Sect, so we can’t openly move against him for the time being,” said the Tyrant Blade Grand Elder, his voice grave.

“What about Lord Demon General’s plan?” asked the Sect Leader of Heixuan Gate.

“The plan has changed, and you are no longer suitable to stay in the city. Tonight, I will send someone to take you out,” said the Tyrant Blade Grand Elder.

“What about my leg?” the Sect Leader of Heixuan Gate quickly asked.

A sinister smile crossed the Tyrant Blade Grand Elder’s face, “Why the rush? Once you leave the city, someone will provide you with a pair of legs that are even more powerful, guaranteed to your satisfaction.”

The Scripture Pavilion of the City Lord’s Mansion is vast.

Built from giant stones, it has three levels, but Ye Feng, Zhou Jiacai, and Xin Guangxuan were only allowed into the first level.

There were many First Grade Spells, as well as plenty of ancient tomes on formations, elixirs, and spiritual beasts, but each book was locked within a secret compartment in the massive stones, making it inconvenient to search for them.

“Hehehe, Deputy Commander Zhou, who are these two?” a little old man with his hands behind his back approached, moving as silently as a ghost, startling Ye Feng and Xin Guangxuan.

“This is Elder Liu, the Pavilion Master of the Scripture Pavilion and the top expert in Whitefloat City below the Element Gathering Realm,” Zhou Jiacai introduced.

Ye Feng sized up “Elder Liu.”

This is a spiritully vigorous old man, with sparse hair but bright, penetrating eyes that shone like two beacons, the most attention-grabbing features being the golden dentures in his mouth.

From Elder Liu, Ye Feng sensed an aura stronger than that of the Tyrant Blade Grand Elder, strong enough to defeat five Brother Flatheads.

“Elder Liu is quite potent, able to match me,” Ye Feng mused to himself.

Zhou Jiacai pointed to Ye Feng and Xin Guangxuan, introducing them, “Elder Liu, these two are Sect Master Ye Feng from Misty Sect and Inner Sect Disciple Xin Guangxuan from Liuyun Sect. Sect Master Ye has come here specifically to borrow spells.”

“Which one would you like?” Elder Liu placed an ancient tome on the table, spreading it out for Ye Feng to see.

Ye Feng noticed that the ancient tome listed the names and brief descriptions of all the spells in the Scripture Pavilion, though the exact locations were not marked.

After some browsing, Ye Feng selected three First Grade Spells that were extremely suitable for the current stage of Misty Sect disciples, named “Mystic Shell Shield”, “Earth Escape”, and “Vitality Bullet”.

“Once you have made your choice, just register here,” Elder Liu said as he brought out a registry book, “Remember, you must return them within a month or you’ll have to purchase them for a hundred spirit stones each.”

“Alright, thank you, Elder Liu,” Ye Feng nodded.

A moment later, the three of them left the Scripture Pavilion.

On the way, Ye Feng asked curiously, “Both being One-Star Forces, in your opinion, Xin Dao You, which has the more comprehensive Scripture Pavilion, Whitefloat City or your honored sect?”

“Of course, it’s much more complete at Liuyun Sect,” Zhou Jiacai answered before Xin Guangxuan could speak.

After thinking for a moment, Xin Guangxuan nodded, “Indeed it is.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Feng immediately developed a strong curiosity about Liuyun Sect’s Scripture Pavilion.

In the afternoon, Zhou Jiacai handed a hundred lower-grade spirit stones to Ye Feng, then quickly returned to the Black Armored Guard headquarters.

Xin Guangxuan went with Ye Feng to a shop called “Myriad Commerce Alliance,” preparing to buy some elixirs.

“What would the esteemed guests like to purchase?” A long-legged beauty sashayed over, offering a slight smile that revealed her dimpled cheeks.

“Lower-grade Cultivation Qi Pills,” said Ye Feng.

The reception maid was taken aback.

She didn’t possess cultivation, but her Spirit Eyes were open, and she could see that Ye Feng had no cultivation. She had assumed the wealthy customer would be Xin Guangxuan, yet to her surprise, it was the mortal who spoke up first.

“Sect Master Ye, eating too many Cultivation Qi Pills isn’t good for cultivation; it tends to accumulate impurities in the body,” Xin Guangxuan advised. “Of course, you can buy ‘Body Tempering Qi Pills’ to remove those impurities.”

Ye Feng’s eyebrows rose.

He remembered that when he gave elixirs to the disciples before, Jia Yulan had complained about the purity being only ninety-nine percent, but Mo Ying had also mentioned that the impurities could be expelled automatically.

“Can’t I expel the impurities myself?” Ye Feng asked.

Xin Guangxuan hesitated, then explained, “Of course you can, but if you consume too many elixirs in a short time, and you can’t get rid of them all at once, impurities will accumulate, affecting your foundation.”

At this, the reception maid finally found an opportunity to interject, speaking softly, “You can use ‘Body Tempering Qi Pills’ to eliminate bodily impurities. A single pill is priced at thirty lower-grade spirit stones.”

“Pfft… That expensive?” Ye Feng was dumbfounded.

The claws of a pair of lower-ranked Demon Soldier-level Croc-Chicken Beasts cost only two spirit stones, meaning it would take killing fifteen Croc-Chicken Beasts to afford just one Body Tempering Qi Pill.

“Body Tempering Qi Pills are specialized in removing impurities. With fewer impurities, cultivation speed can increase, and it even helps in breaking through cultivation bottlenecks better. Its value is even higher than that of Upper Grade Cultivation Qi Pills, hence the higher price,” the reception maid explained with a smile.

“Alright, I’ll buy one to try it out,” Ye Feng muttered.
