White Cloud City Exchange Meeting
"Letter?"
Ye Beixuan looked at the newcomer with a puzzled expression.
The disciple respectfully replied, "It was Senior Brother Ye Lingxiao from the Heavenly Spirit Institute who asked me to deliver it. I originally intended to send it to the Miscellaneous Dao Institute, but I heard that Senior Brother has been at the Pill Dao Institute recently, so I came here instead."
"Senior Brother Ye Lingxiao."
Upon hearing this name, Ye Beixuan's eyes flashed with surprise. He naturally knew Ye Lingxiao, the number one prodigy of the Ye Clan in this generation. If it weren't for the emergence of his senior brother, Ye Lingxiao would have been a star.
Ye Lingxiao will become the most dazzling prodigy of the Dao-Seeking Academy within a hundred years. He will also be the second person in the Ye Clan to become Sword Saint, following the White Cloud Sword Saint.
In his previous life, when he became Half-Saint, Ye Lingxiao was only one step away from becoming Half-Saint himself.
The two were hailed as the "Sleeping Dragon and Phoenix Chicks" of the Ye Clan in White Cloud City.
However, in his previous life, his interaction with this cousin didn't occur until a century later.
As a top prodigy of the Ye Clan in White Cloud City and the Dao-Seeking Academy, Ye Lingxiao has always looked down on those of them who belong to the collateral branches of the Ye Clan.
The fact that a letter was suddenly sent to him caught him quite off guard.
"Thank you for your help, junior brother. May I ask how I should address you?"
The disciple said, "My name is Li Wei. It is my honor to serve my two senior brothers."
Ye Beixuan nodded slightly. "I'm sorry to have troubled you to make this trip, Junior Brother Li. If you have any questions about cultivation in the future, I can offer you guidance once for free."
He never owes anyone a favor, and even the smallest favor, he repays as soon as possible.
Li Wei's face lit up with joy. "Thank you so much, Senior Brother Ye Senior Brother Ye. I will definitely seek your guidance in the future."
As he spoke, he glanced at Junior Sister Feng not far away and tactfully said, "Senior Brother, I won't bother you any longer. Farewell."
Take care.
After watching Li Wei leave, Ye Beixuan turned his gaze to the large envelope in his hand.
Feng Qiongyu walked over curiously and asked, "Senior brother, do you also have dealings with the geniuses of Heavenly Spirit Institute?"
Although the Miscellaneous Dao Institute is renowned throughout the world, the Heavenly Spirit Institute has always been the foundation of the Dao-Seeking Academy. In the minds of many disciples, the Heavenly Spirit Institute is in no way inferior to the Miscellaneous Dao Institute.
Ye Beixuan nodded slightly. "We're considered cousins, but he's from the main branch, while I'm just a disciple from a collateral branch."
As he spoke, he opened the large envelope, inside which was an invitation with gold embossing and a letter.
Ye Beixuan didn't look at the invitation; instead, he opened the letter and read it carefully.
My dear brother Beixuan Xuan: This year on the fifteenth of August, the once-in-a-decade exchange meeting in White Cloud City will be held as scheduled. You and I are both the pride of the Ye Clan, and it is our duty to support the Ye Clan. If you do not mind, my brother, we can invite our fellow disciples to go to White Cloud City together, and by the way, let your lineage return to the main lineage.
After reading it, Ye Beixuan's face showed a thoughtful expression. He naturally knew about the exchange meeting in White Cloud City. White Cloud City was located in the White Cloud Mountain Range, which was full of spiritual herbs and minerals. Every exchange meeting would bring out many treasures and elixirs.
His family lived in Black Iron Valley, which was rich in Xuan Tie ore, which is why his branch of Black Iron Valley family had lived there for hundreds of years.
However, in recent decades, it has become difficult for the iron mines in Black Iron Valley to produce refined iron, which has led to a sharp decline in their status within the Ye Clan and made them less favored by the main branch.
This led to a very difficult situation for the Ye Clan Ye Clan Black Iron Valley Black Iron Valley, as the surrounding forces looked down on them.
"Huh..."
Feng Qiongyu said with a look of surprise, "Beixuan, you actually have an invitation to the White Cloud City Exchange Meeting! Could you take me there to broaden my horizons?"
Ye Beixuan was pulled back to reality by Feng Qiongyu's voice. He turned to look at Feng Qiongyu, whose face was full of expectation, and said with a smile, "Of course."
"Yay!"
Feng Qiongyu jumped up excitedly. When she was in Phoenix Perch Mountain, she had heard about the White Cloud City Exchange Meeting and that some strange and wonderful treasures would appear at each meeting.
Although I couldn't afford those things with the spirit stones in my pocket, it would still be good to broaden my horizons.
When Ye Beixuan saw Feng Qiongyu's innocent smile, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly.
It took Feng Qiongyu a while to come to her senses. When she saw that her Beixuan was staring at her blankly, her face immediately turned red.
Although she didn't know why her senior brother Beixuan knew her so well as a newly initiated disciple, she had long understood his intentions. However, she was shy, and her mother had repeatedly told her to protect herself when she went out.
Feng Qiongyu had been hesitant to confess her feelings to Senior Brother Ye, but now, seeing him look at her like that, her heart pounded, and she blurted out unconsciously.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Beixuan. You're a good person."
After saying that, her face instantly turned as red as a ripe apple, and she turned and disappeared from Ye Beixuan's sight.
Hearing these familiar words, Ye Beixuan felt incredibly happy.
In my previous life, my relationship with Qiong'er progressed rapidly starting with that one sentence. "You are a good person."
Ye Beixuan watched Feng Qiongyu's disappearing figure but did not chase after her. Instead, he put the invitation into his storage bag and flew towards the Miscellaneous Dao Institute, humming a little tune.
"Master, I'm back."
Inside the main courtyard, Chu Feng was chatting with Xiao Chen when he suddenly heard Ye Beixuan's voice, and everyone turned their attention to him.
Chu Feng joked, "Beixuan, judging from your radiant face, you must have encountered something good."
Ye Beixuan smiled and said, "As expected, nothing can be hidden from Master. Sister Qiong'er just told me that you are a good person."
"..."
Chu Feng remained silent for a few seconds, looking at Ye Beixuan with a strange gaze, his expression seeming to say, "Are you alright?"
Ye Beixuan felt a little uncomfortable under his master's gaze and subconsciously asked, "Master, what's wrong?"
"Nothing."
Chu Feng said, "This is the first time I've seen someone so happy to receive a 'friend card' (a term used to describe someone who is nice to others)."
Upon hearing this, Elder Bing asked, "Sir, isn't this a good thing?"
???
Chu Feng was stunned. He wanted to explain, but seeing Ye Beixuan's excitement and the puzzled expressions on everyone's faces, he knew that there was no such thing as a "good guy card" in the Heavenly Profound Continent.
"Alas... life is as lonely as snow."
Everyone:???
"Junior Brother Ye, I'm afraid simply saying you're a good person isn't enough to make you this happy, is it?"
Xiao Chen knew a bit about this Junior Brother Ye. This Junior Brother was a ruthless person who could cause trouble. He was only at the Foundation Dao Foundation and was already being hunted down by various experts in the Spirit Nurturing stage.
Ye Beixuan then remembered the important matter. "Senior Brother Xiao, have you heard of the White Cloud City Exchange Meeting?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen asked, "Is that the grand exchange event that focuses on spiritual herbs and minerals, with various rare treasures as secondary attractions?"
"Good."
Ye Beixuan said, "Senior Brother Ye just gave me an invitation to an exchange meeting. If Senior Brother wants anything, we can go together then."
Xiao Chen asked, "When did this happen?"
Ye Beixuan: "August 15th."
"Three months from now, we can go take a look together." Xiao Chen agreed without much thought.
As everyone was talking, Elder Bai from the External Affairs Institute arrived on a crane, bringing Chu Feng three invitations to the White Cloud City Exchange Meeting. One of them was so exquisitely crafted that it dazzled everyone's eyes.
Chu Feng looked at the invitation in his hand and said with a smile, "I didn't expect the White Cloud City Exchange Meeting be so lively; the invitation was even delivered to me."
Elder Bing was standing nearby, asked, "Sir, are you going?"
