After kicking the pitiful Brother Flathead down the mountain, Ye Feng turned around, a sunny expression on his face as he looked at Jia Li’an and said:

“It’s all settled now, the Jia Family head can retract the shield, keeping it up all the time, what a waste of spiritual power!”

Upon hearing this, Jia Li’an’s mouth twitched.

It seemed his action of deploying the shield was mistaken by Ye Feng for fear, which was embarrassingly humiliating!

But recalling how Ye Feng dealt with Brother Flathead, Jia Li’an’s complexion changed abruptly, and he thought to himself:

“Ye Feng’s movements seemed effortless, yet he precisely avoided the demonic beast’s attack, his physique so strong he could crush a high-rank demon soldier—truly terrifying!”

“It turns out, I was the one who misjudged.”

“It seems that my daughter staying in the Misty Sect is also a very good choice.”

With that thought, Jia Li’an was secretly relieved that he hadn’t yet mentioned anything about his daughter leaving the Misty Sect.

As long as he didn’t say it, it was as if the matter didn’t exist.

Therefore, Jia Li’an immediately withdrew the shield and cupped his hands towards Ye Feng, saying:

“Sect Master Ye is indeed as powerful as the rumors say. It’s a fortunate thing for my daughter to have joined the Misty Sect.”

Upon hearing this, Jia Yulan blinked with an odd expression and said, “Dad, I remember before coming here, you were telling me to leave the Misty Sect!”

Jia Li’an glared and said, “Nonsense!”

Perhaps feeling somewhat guilty, Jia Li’an pointed towards Whitefloat City and said:

“It was your grandfather who said that. In truth, as a father, I’ve always supported your joining the Misty Sect, otherwise why would I personally come to visit today?”

“What?”

Jia Yulan was stunned by Jia Li’an’s buck-passing tactic and didn’t know what to say for a moment.

Seeing the father and daughter staring at each other with wide eyes, Ye Feng could guess the reason, but he just smiled and didn’t expose it.

“Now that everyone’s here, let’s enter and have a chat!” Ye Feng suddenly spoke up.

Seizing the opportunity, Jia Li’an no longer “contended” with Jia Yulan and followed the flow into the Misty Sect.

Bang!

Although the gate had been kicked to ruins, some planks were still connected to the frame. Just as Jia Li’an stepped over the threshold, a rotten plank happened to fall down, hitting him on the head.

Despite being at the ninth level of Qi Refinement and having a strong physique, Jia Li’an wasn’t hurt but ended up covered in dust.

“This gate…”

Only then did Jia Li’an realize that the grand entrance to the Misty Sect was gone, and even the courtyard inside was dilapidated, comparable to a broken-down roadside temple.

Ye Feng’s face filled with embarrassment, and he coughed and said, “The Jia Family head need not worry, these past few days, I’ve been busy recruiting new disciples. In time, the courtyard will be renovated, ensuring every disciple has their own bedroom.”

“It’s no trouble at all, the harsher the environment, the better to temper one’s will. My daughter training here will surely accelerate her cultivation progress.”

Jia Li’an spoke against his conscience.

If it weren’t for Ye Feng demonstrating his astonishing power, Jia Li’an would have run off with Jia Yulan without a second word upon seeing such rundown surroundings.

“Does your sect have a water source at the mountaintop?” Jia Li’an asked at this moment.

“The Jia Family head need not worry, we do have a water source here, and it flows throughout the year.”

Ye Feng led the group around the Sect Leader’s Great Hall to the backyard.

In the center, there was a rock several meters high with a spring eye right below, forming a pond-like body of water about a foot deep, conveniently providing water.

As for the surroundings, they were encircled by dilapidated thatched huts, except for one that was a combination kitchen and latrine; the rest served as the disciples’ bedrooms.

“This environment…”

Jia Li’an was at a loss for words.

In his view, the Misty Sect’s ramshackle buildings weren’t much different from an average farmer’s courtyard.

At most, the difference was that a farmer’s courtyard is on flat ground while the Misty Sect is located at the mountaintop.

“The water is indeed cool and sweet, but I have no idea where it comes from…”

Jia Li’an scooped up some water from the spring’s eye with his hands and took a sip, finding it quite satisfactory—a small consolation.

Ye Feng glanced at the time and noticed it was almost noon. He then said, “It’s getting late. Let’s all sit down and have a meal!”

“Oh, there’s really no need!”

Jia Li’an shook his head repeatedly.

He was accustomed to exotic delicacies, even the greens he ate were soaked in Spiritual Spring water, how could he possibly enjoy the simple meals of the Misty Sect.

But then Jia Li’an had a second thought, changed his mind, and said, “Still, let’s have a taste!”

After all, just one bite should be swallowable.

Jia Li’an silently mused.

Before long, Li Jiaojiao had finished preparing the meal, setting a table in the Sect Leader’s Great Hall.

“Huh, this tastes pretty good!”

Jia Li’an took a bite of the greens and found that they were not bad, perhaps because they were washed with the water from the backyard spring.

“The environment here is a bit lacking, but the food is alright. It won’t be too hard for my daughter to stay here. The main thing is, she can learn skills from Sect Master Ye,” Jia Li’an thought to himself.

The thought that Ye Feng could even teach an incomplete “Falling Blooms in Profusion” spell made Jia Li’an quite eager. He asked, “Sect Master Ye, I heard you could teach the incomplete Second-Grade Spell “Falling Blooms in Profusion”, could you perhaps teach me as well?”

Seeing Ye Feng’s hesitation, Jia Li’an switched to “money-spending mode” and said:

“It won’t be a free lesson. As long as Sect Master Ye teaches me, the Jia Family will cover the renovation costs for the Misty Sect.”

Jia Li’an had already estimated that renovating the Misty Sect would cost about ten Lower Grade Spirit Stones.

Even if it were several times more, the Jia Family could afford it.

Ye Feng and all the disciples looked at Jia Li’an in surprise, even Jia Yulan found it unbelievable.

After some thought, Ye Feng said, “There’s no need for the Jia Family Head to spend the money, but I do have one condition.”

“Please, speak freely!”

“I want to be able to teach the “Falling Blooms in Profusion” spell to the disciples of the Misty Sect as well.”

Jia Li’an hesitated for a moment, then said:

“To tell you the truth, although “Falling Blooms in Profusion” is a spell passed down by our Jia Family, it is an incomplete version and cannot be practiced to the point of Minor Achievement. Sect Master Ye, with your extraordinary insight, has deduced the remaining parts, so of course, you can teach it freely. Moreover, for this, I owe you my thanks!”

“I see.”

Ye Feng showed a look of sudden realization.

He had asked this only because he didn’t want the disciples of the Misty Sect to be targeted by members of the Jia Family when they used “Falling Blooms in Profusion” in the future.

Now that even the head of the Jia Family felt it was fine, Ye Feng had no concerns.

After the meal.

Ye Feng drew a new diagram of the meridian circulation and pointed at several areas, saying:

“Yesterday was too hasty, I missed a few key points. Now that they have been filled in, follow this for cultivation, and reaching Major Achievement won’t be a problem, but to reach Perfection, you’ll still need to wait for me to ponder on it further.”

Ye Feng didn’t want to reveal too much, so he didn’t draw it all out.

“Thank you, Sect Master Ye. Tomorrow I will send craftsmen to the Misty Sect to assist you with the renovation, farewell!”

Having obtained a more complete meridian circulation diagram, Jia Li’an lost all interest in lingering for food. He stepped onto his Bamboo Leaf Boat, and in the blink of an eye, he was out of sight.

“Dad!”

Jia Yulan rolled her eyes in frustration as Jia Li’an simply ran off.

But she soon cheered up.

Because at last, she could officially stay and cultivate at the Misty Sect.

Ye Feng, on the other hand, was looking at the Bamboo Leaf Boat with a face full of envy.
