She was very puzzled, at such a critical moment for the survival of the sect, why would Bo Yuanzi send her to find such a young man, and how would this help the Thunderbolt Sect?
Thinking of Bo Yuanzi's instructions, she didn't ask much, she just replied truthfully: "The Demon Punishment Palace will mount a massive attack on our Thunderbolt Sect within three days!"
"Oh? The Demon Punishment Palace?" Although Ye Qingfeng had never heard of this ancient martial sect, he somehow understood.
"So it's a battle between your two sects, and you want me to help!"
He nodded, sat up, stretched lazily, and said to Ouyang Liluo beside him, "Ouyang, I promised an old guy to help him with something. Now that they're here, it looks like I have to make a trip!"
Ouyang Liluo gently helped Ye Qingfeng tidy up his clothes and smiled warmly, "You made a promise, so go. Be careful, I'll wait for you to come back!"
She gave Ye Qingfeng a light kiss on the face, which made Yi Yue's little mouth twitch slightly at the side.
"Such a beautiful sister, how could she be with him? Could he really have some amazing abilities?"
Ye Qingfeng stood up, his gaze returning to indifference, stunning Yi Yue.
"Lead the way!"
His words were brief but powerful, and a touch of astonishment appeared on Yi Yue's tender face.
Ye Qingfeng's expression at this moment was completely different from before.
"Mm!"
She nodded lightly, feeling a bit curious about Ye Qingfeng. Judging by his demeanor, he indeed seemed to have some agreement with Bo Yuanzi, but she still couldn't understand how Bo Yuanzi—one with such status, being an elder of the Thunderbolt Sect and possessing formidable strength—could have any connection with an ordinary young man and even specifically sent her to invite him?
That very day, they took a flight to the city where the Thunderbolt Sect was located.
In a large mountain on the border, Yi Yue gently pulled on a spot on the cliff, revealing an iron chain.
This iron chain was very well-hidden, without specific markings, it would be impossible to remember.
She pulled the chain three times to each side, and suddenly there was a light sound, and a cave entry appeared on the mountain wall.
"Let's go, entering here leads to the outer sect of the ancient martial sect!"
Yi Yue pointed to the cave.
"Outer sect of the ancient martial sect?"
Ye Qingfeng was somewhat surprised. He could sense that the world inside was extremely vast and isolated from the outside, forming its own realm.
"Yes, the Thunderbolt Sect, Lotus Sect, and Demon Punishment Palace, among other ancient martial sects, are located in the outer sect, and the ancient martial sect also has the central sect, inner sect, and the legendary Heavenly Gate sect, though I have never been to those!"
Yi Yue explained, feeling more doubtful about Ye Qingfeng.
He didn't even understand the ancient martial sect, clearly not a person of the inner realm. What use was there in finding him for the Thunderbolt Sect? Did they hope he could oppose the Demon Punishment Palace?
Thinking of this, her face bore a trace of coldness, but her attitude remained the same, and she continued to show great respect toward Ye Qingfeng.
"Outer sect, central sect, inner sect, Heavenly Gate?"
Ye Qingfeng grinned, "Interesting! I suppose the Extraordinary Realm is what the ancient martial sects refer to as the Heavenly Gate."
The two entered the cave, and the mountain wall closed automatically behind them, cleverly designed.
In the darkness, Yi Yue deliberately didn't light a flare, intending to make Ye Qingfeng embarrass himself, to test his depth.
But to her surprise, Ye Qingfeng walked neither too fast nor too slow, each step steady, as if the darkness had no effect on him.
"Could he also be a martial cultivator?"
Yi Yue surreptitiously observed Ye Qingfeng again, but Ye Qingfeng showed no trace of being a martial cultivator, remaining calm and indifferent, save for his god-like handsome appearance, exuding ordinariness everywhere.
"Could he have reached the realm of returning to the original?" At this thought, Yi Yue shook her head vigorously, "How could that be possible? Even our elders have yet to attain such a realm; he's so young, it certainly can't be."
Exiting the cave, the scene before them felt open and bright; the world before them was a land of autumn lakes and boundless mountains, like an otherworldly paradise.
"I see, the ancient martial sects are in such a hidden small world, no wonder they aren't known to outsiders, with such an extremely secretive presence!"
Ye Qingfeng nodded inwardly, becoming greatly curious about these ancient martial sects that only existed in novels and television.
As night fell, Yi Yue dared not linger, leading Ye Qingfeng swiftly towards Qianling Mountain within the small world.
Passing by a lake, Yi Yue respectfully asked Ye Qingfeng, "Mr. Ye, taking a boat would be twice as fast as traveling by land. I've already docked a small boat here; do you mind riding it?"
"I don't mind, let's go!"
Ye Qingfeng casually boarded the small boat and laid down directly at the bow, using his hands as a pillow, gazing up at the starry sky.
Yi Yue bit her lip. It felt somewhat ironic for a dignified disciple of an ancient martial sect to paddle a boat for an ordinary person.
The small boat, propelled by Yi Yue's spiritual power, advanced quickly. Ye Qingfeng remained quietly reclined, closing his eyes for a nap, which made Yi Yue slightly annoyed.
"Bang!"
After ten minutes of sailing, a muffled crash suddenly exploded from the left riverbank, and a water column shot straight into the sky.
Ye Qingfeng was motionless, always keeping his eyes closed to rest, while Yi Yue frowned.
She turned her head, seeing several figures overlapping in the darkness on the left riverbank. Her peak Martial Sect cultivation could barely make them out.
"Haha, I didn't expect to find two top geniuses of the Thunderbolt Sect here. Since fate has brought us together, why not come to the Demon Punishment Palace as our guests? I promise to 'entertain' both of you well!"
Among them, five people boasted powerful auras, their punches and palms unleashed a torrent of spiritual power, blasting the bank and causing bursts of water.
On the other side, only two, a man and a woman, were present, their faces full of gravity.
These two, Yi Yue knew all too well; they were the two top geniuses within the Thunderbolt Sect, Zu Feng and Yi Xun.
One of them was her own sister.
Zu Feng and Yi Xun exuded a powerful aura, with flashes of Thunder Light within their spiritual power, resisting the fierce assault of the five.
They were both at the level of a Junior War King, while the opposing side had five War Kings. Even though they relied on the formidable Thunder Power to hold on till now, they were gradually falling behind.
After coming down from the Lotus Sect, they decided to explore recent movements of the Demon Punishment Palace on their own but unexpectedly got discovered by the experts of the Demon Punishment Palace, falling into a siege.
"Sister! Brother Xiao Feng!"
Seeing the two in danger, Yi Yue steered the boat toward the shore, shouting loudly.
"Little Yue?"
Yi Xun and Zu Feng were delighted in their hearts, both facing off against two experts from the opposite side, retreating over ten meters onto the wooden boat with a leap.
