Chapter 218: The Cunning Yan Cangtian!

"Hmm?"

This time, it was Yan Cangtian who felt shocked. How did he know Ling Feng?

Twenty years ago, Yun Danqing had already emerged as a master alchemist, a figure of great renown. Even Yan Cangtian, proud and rarely impressed, held deep admiration for Yun Danqing's alchemy skills.

Someone capable of causing a stir in the alchemy world with just a flick of his fingers actually knows Ling Feng?

"Old Man Yun, you actually know that kid?" Yan Cangtian couldn't believe it as he looked at Yun Danqing, Ling Feng's image flashing through his mind.

Just how mysterious is this kid's background?

"I've only heard of him," Yun Danqing said, a hint of admiration flickering in his eyes.

In truth, Yun Danqing had never met Ling Feng. It was when Yuan Qiansheng presented a Malevolent Elemental Pill refined by Ling Feng that Yun Danqing was asked to appraise it.

After that, Yun Danqing learned of Ling Feng's name from Yuan Qiansheng.

Later, Yun Danqing sought out Wen Tingguang, only to find out that Ling Feng had been sent away and wouldn't return to Cangqiong Mountain for another six months.

Despite Yun Danqing's inquiries, Wen Tingguang remained tight-lipped, refusing to reveal any information about Ling Feng, which only heightened Yun Danqing's interest in him.

"Hehe." Upon hearing that Yun Danqing had only heard of Ling Feng's name while he, Yan Cangtian, had imparted upon Ling Feng half of his expertise through the Taoist Art of Heavenly Fire, Yan Cangtian's excitement bubbled up.

"Old Man Yan, it sounds like you're quite familiar with this Ling Feng." Yun Danqing couldn't hide his excitement.

"Reasonably so." Yan Cangtian raised his eyebrows, feeling proud. "I know what you're curious about, but it's best not to ask. That kid wouldn't want you to disturb him."

"Ah." Yun Danqing sighed deeply, feeling regretful. It seemed he would find it hard to connect with this mysterious, young master.

Shangguan Chu was bewildered upon hearing Yan Cangtian and Yun Danqing's conversation.

A teenager?

A young master revered by both Yan Cangtian and Yun Danqing?

Who exactly is this Ling Feng?

Yun Danqing shook his head as he watched. "People say you've gone mad, old man. But in my eyes, you've not only stayed sane but become even more cunning!"

"Hehe, it takes one to know one!"

Yan Cangtian smirked and strode out of the Alchemist Guild.

Soon, the apprentices and disciples of the Alchemist Guild would likely mobilize the nation's alchemists to search for the Scarlet Blood Dragon Eagle's eyeball.

One couldn't deny that this method was absolutely brilliant!

And the mastermind behind this plan wasn't Yan Cangtian, but rather his adviser, Ling Feng.

...

The training ground in the East Court.

After the relatively relaxed training session concluded, the devil instructor finally announced the dismissal. The students, exhausted and staggering, helped each other back to the residential area in small groups.

After several days of training, most people had begun to adapt to this level of heavy training. Alongside improving their physical fitness, their reflexes had also improved.

Tianwei Academy's martial arts education was indeed remarkable, even among the four major academies..

Ling Feng even secretly noted that after returning to Wenxian Sect, he planned to incorporate this training method into the daily practice of Wenxian Sect disciples.

While it might not immediately elevate Wenxian Sect's level to a drastic extent, it would definitely enhance its overall proficiency.

Before long, Ling Feng and several other students residing in Tianshu East Court returned to their courtyard.

Just as they sat down to rest, they heard a knock at the door. Soon, a respectful voice came from outside, "Excuse me. Is Mr. Ling Feng here?"

Everyone looked up to see a young man dressed in a long green gown standing at the door, gently knocking.

When they saw the 'Cangqiong' emblem on the young man's left shoulder, Yang Jun, whose family background was the most prominent among them, suddenly felt a twitch in his eye.

Because this emblem could only mean one thing: he was a disciple of the Cangqiong Sect!
