The kiss lasted long enough that even Zhao Wan reacted. However, even as both sides burned with desire, Ye Feng's mind still held a sliver of clarity that extinguished the flames of passion in his body.
Once their lips slowly parted, Zhao Wan embraced him and asked, "Am I considered yours now?"
Ye Feng laughed heartily, "That question seems a bit unnecessary. Do you feel like you are my woman?"
Zhao Wan pouted and said, "How would I know? You haven't said anything. Anyway, since you killed my original husband, you have to accompany me!"
Ye Feng shrugged helplessly and replied, "Alright, I'll accompany you. But your cultivation level is too low right now. You need to work hard to keep up with me. The outcome between Prince Ning and me is one of no return. I will help with your matters, but that also helps myself. However, I can't predict what the final result will be because I don't have absolute confidence."
Zhao Wan held him tightly and declared, "No matter what happens, even if it means death, I won't yield like he did. Even if we ultimately fail, I will die alongside you!"
Ye Feng felt a bit moved. After all, he initially harbored hostility towards Zhao Wan; if it weren't for her, he wouldn't have been in such trouble. But now that he thought about it carefully, although this woman had her schemes back then, she was also forced by circumstances.
Born into a royal family, there were too many helpless situations and too many things beyond one's control!
Everything was fate—Zhao Wan's fate and Ye Feng's fate!
After parting with Zhao Wan, Ye Feng returned to White Tiger Hall. That night and day had seen so many events that many people hadn't even reacted yet!
Jiang Shiji had calmed down; perhaps it was due to discussing the mysterious matters with that enigmatic person. The clouds of worry on his face had long since disappeared.
Seeing Ye Feng, he cheerfully asked, "With such a commotion tonight, why didn't I see your people?"
Ye Feng pondered for a moment before continuing his explanation: "I went straight to Scripture Pavilion at the first opportunity. With such a big incident happening at White Tiger Hall, it would be strange if Bai Chengfeng didn't look for me. When I got there, I told him honestly that I was unaware of the situation. Of course, I also slightly hinted at some false information—mostly that White Tiger Hall has become very powerful and that the disciples' cultivation levels are quite high. That old man seemed quite worried after hearing this."
Jiang Shiji nodded in satisfaction.
"This has its advantages and disadvantages. The downside is that the Bai Family will be cautious of us, but the upside is that they won't dare to act recklessly at this time!"
Ye Feng stood below, remaining silent as Jiang Shiji pondered for a long time before waving his hand and saying, "Forget it. Such events are beyond our anticipation. You should go and focus on your training. The Nine Sects Trial is about to begin, and I have already decided on the candidates. However, during those days, I need you to handle a few matters for me."
"Oh? What does the Hall Master want me to do?" Ye Feng asked curiously.
It was unexpected for Jiang Shiji to handle matters himself.
"I need several types of herbs. They are not particularly rare, but I require a large quantity. When the trial begins, I will provide you with a list, and you can help me collect them from various towns. I will arrange for someone to give you the necessary funds."
At that time, Ye Feng would definitely be participating in the Nine Sects Trial alongside many disciples, leaving him with no time at all.
After leaving the hall, Ye Feng contemplated who he could ask to handle this task.
Brother Yang Han seemed like a good choice, but Ye Feng did not want to involve him. After thinking it over, he decided to ask Blue Shadow and Zhang Yihang to assist him with this matter.
After all, these two had lower cultivation levels and were considered minor figures in Dragon Tiger Sect, so not many people would notice their sudden disappearance.
However, he also considered that their lower cultivation levels could pose a problem if they encountered any dangers along the way.
This task was indeed troublesome!
In the following days, Ye Feng stayed indoors and focused on his training. On the night before the Nine Sects Trial began, Jiang Shiji sent someone to deliver gold coins and the list he had compiled to Ye Feng.
Ye Feng did not hesitate; he briefly checked the list and found that it contained some relatively common herbs. Taking advantage of the night, he quietly made his way to the Scripture Pavilion.
After seeing the list, Bai Chengfeng did not speak but placed it on the table and said to Ye Feng, "You don't need to worry about this. I will help you prepare. Let your senior brother assist you with the disguise!"
Ye Feng shot him a glare and replied irritably, "This matter is very important. If it's not done well and can't be concealed, Jiang Shiji will definitely not let me off."
In fact, Ye Feng had one more thing he didn't say: his life was still in Jiang Shiji's hands!
The Nine Sects Trial was set to begin the next day, but tomorrow was just the day for the Dragon Tiger Sect disciples to head to the Qiu Yang Secret Realm. According to the planned schedule, they would probably arrive there around the third day.
Ye Feng roughly understood that among those participating in the trial from Bai Chengfeng's side were himself and Ning Ruoxue. As for Bai Qiufeng's side, Ye Feng was unsure and unclear; it was likely that they were Bai Qiufeng's favored disciples.
However, one thing he was certain of was that the disciples participating in this Nine Sects Trial must have very high cultivation levels!
The next day, as dawn broke, the Dragon Tiger Sect disciples participating in the Nine Sects Trial had already gathered at the foot of the mountain. Not only that, but all disciples of the Dragon Tiger Sect had also congregated there to send off those participating in the trial!
The Qiu Yang Secret Realm was located in the Northern Frontier region! Ye Feng had never been to Northern Frontier, but from his memory, such small places were extremely poor, although they did have many rare herbs.
However, because Northern Frontier was small, there were relatively fewer exceptionally talented disciples. Therefore, even some sects in this Northern Frontier region were much smaller in influence.
Countless disciples of Dragon Tiger Sect silently cheered for those participating in the trial. For them, whether they belonged to Blazing Hall, Azure Dragon Hall, or White Tiger Hall, they were still members of Dragon Tiger Sect. Given the significance of this event, it felt inappropriate not to show up for the send-off as a disciple of Dragon Tiger Sect.
Many of the trial participants Ye Feng had never seen before, but their displayed Elemental Wave still made him take a deep breath!
A total of ten people were led by three Grand Hall Masters along with Bai Qiufeng as they set off towards the Northern Frontier region in a grand procession!
Yang Han's disguise technique was truly remarkable; not only could it not be discerned by the naked eye, but even when probing with Vital Energy, no traces could be found!
He couldn't help but marvel at how much more advanced the art of disguise was in this world compared to his own.
The group was puzzled as to why, after leaving the Dragon Tiger Sect, they had split up. This surprised Ye Feng. According to Bai Chengfeng, it was because there were too many eyes around, and separating was relatively safer. Moreover, with the Three Grand Hall Masters and the sect leader Bai Qiufeng personally leading them, there were very few threats in the Northern Jin Kingdom that could pose a danger to them.
However, Ye Feng felt a vague sense of worry. With Bai Chengfeng and Bai Qiufeng gone, what would happen within the Dragon Tiger Sect? He was well aware that there was a mysterious figure within the White Tiger Hall. Would this person take advantage of their absence from the Dragon Tiger Sect to do something?
Such concerns were not unfounded, but when he voiced them, both Bai Qiufeng and Bai Chengfeng merely smiled and remained silent.
Ye Feng couldn't help but feel suspicious about their attitude. Was there someone powerful hidden within the Dragon Tiger Sect? Or did they have a backup plan?
Ning Ruoxue remained cold and indifferent. Little did she know that walking alongside her was Ye Feng. To be honest, she despised Ye Feng deeply.
The way he had treated her before and then joined the White Tiger Hall made her want to confront him if they ever met!
This was a true reflection of her inner thoughts!
Unfortunately for her, she was only at the Origin Martial Realm's Yae level, which was significantly lower than Ye Feng's. If they met, it would be uncertain who would come out on top!
Bai Chengfeng said nothing during their journey. After parting ways with Bai Qiufeng, he seemed to carry a heavy burden on his mind.
After walking for a day, the three arrived at a small town located on the outskirts of the Northern Jin Kingdom. The town appeared small but was bustling with people coming and going.
After all, it connected the Northern Jin Kingdom with the Northern Frontier region, attracting more merchants.
"Alright, Ruo Xue, I'll drop you off here for now. From here on out, you two can travel on your own; I have important matters to attend to!" Upon arriving in the town, Bai Chengfeng said to Ning Ruoxue.
Ning Ruoxue was startled and asked, "Master, why aren't you going with us?"
Ye Feng added, "Yeah, you aren't scared, are you?"
Upon hearing this, Ning Ruoxue glared at Ye Feng. She didn't know why, but even though it was their first meeting, she found him unpleasant, as if they had a grudge from a past life.
"I have other matters to attend to. I can't delay. It's fine; the Sect Master is over there. Just be careful on your way!"
After saying this, without giving them a chance to retort, she quickly left!
Watching Bai Chengfeng walk away, Ye Feng coughed and said, "Ruo Xue, we should find an inn quickly. Look, it's almost dark."
Ning Ruoxue shot a hostile look at Ye Feng. "Do you think I needed your reminder? Also, let me tell you, you better be respectful towards my master. Just look at yourself; how can you speak to the Hall Master like that? Are you even worthy of being a disciple of Blazing Hall?"
"I..." Ye Feng wanted to explain himself, but Ning Ruoxue was already angrily walking away, leaving him alone in the wind feeling dejected.
In truth, Ye Feng wanted to clarify his identity to Ning Ruoxue, but then he thought that revealing it might lead to more trouble. So he decided not to say anything!
However, it was precisely because of this that more stories would unfold between him and Ning Ruoxue.
