Lin Feng looked at Murong Yanran rather interestedly, continuously calculating in his heart.
"Why did she run away from the Celeritas Sword Sect? According to what she said before, she wasn't doing it to avoid the battle with Xiao Yan. "
If it wasn't because she was avoiding the battle, then it could only mean that the Celeritas Sword Sect made some sort of arrangement, and this arrangement made her unable to accept it.
This girl didn't want to fulfill the bet, but was willing to repay with her life. First not mentioning whether or not she was playing the strategy of retreating in order to advance, just this kind of attitude showed that her personality was relatively strong.
"Making your own decisions about your own marriage?" Lin Feng thought for a bit, gradually sorting out the matter: "If I was someone from the Celeritas Sword Sect, what would I do when faced with this kind of thing?"
Not their match, but not wanting to admit defeat, then the best method could only be to ask for outside help, find helpers to share the pressure on your body.
Lin Feng looked at the uneasy Murong Yanran, suddenly asking: "Tell me, who is the Celeritas Sword Sect preparing to send you to unite by marriage? Mount Shu Sword Sect or the Great Qin Dynasty? "
Murong Yanran raised her head in shock to look at Lin Feng. Lin Feng's expression was calm. To be able to help the Celeritas Sword Sect withstand the pressure brought by Xuanmen Tianzong, the most suitable ones are only the Mount Shu Sword Sect and the Great Qin Dynasty.
"Junior … Junior doesn't know what Senior is talking about." Murong Yanran deeply lowered her head.
The corners of Lin Feng's mouth slightly hooked into a light smile, his tone calm and gentle, but when the words he said fell into Murong Yanran's ears, it made her entire body feel as if it had fallen into an ice cave.
"Being the servant of my disciple, you are unable to accept it, afraid of bringing shame to your family and sect, but have you ever thought about it? Now that you refuse the marriage and run away, will it leave an irreparable crack between the Celeritas Sword Sect and the other party? "
"If it's the Mount Shu Sword Sect then it's fine, but if it's the Great Qin Dynasty, your actions very likely will bring disaster to your family. If I remember correctly, although your Murong family isn't among the four great families of the Great Qin Dynasty, it's still one of the few rich families below the four great families."
"Your Murong family's base is even in the Great Qin Dynasty's capital, West-Hill City, right under the eyes of the Great Qin Emperor."
Murong Yanran's body suddenly trembled and she saw stars. She just wanted to run away from the marriage and subconsciously wanted to get as far away from Yunxing Peak as possible. Her mind was muddled and she forgot that the person she rejected was Crown Prince Chongyun, the Crown Prince of the Great Qin Dynasty.
If he ran away from the marriage, it was very likely that his family would be implicated.
She sighed in her heart, "Is this my fate? I can't escape it no matter what."
Silently looking at Murong Yanran, Lin Feng twitched his mouth inwardly.
Her situation depended on which angle one looked at the problem from. On the bright side, she yearned for freedom and independence.
But looking at it from another point of view, this girl on one side enjoys the status, treatment, and all kinds of resources that ordinary people are unable to reach because of her status as the Murong family's daughter and the Celeritas Sword Sect's direct disciple, but she also doesn't want to pay any price.
Regardless of whether it was the secular world or the cultivation world, it was very common for the descendants of aristocratic families to get married. In fact, independent marriages were actually rare.
If there was a gain, naturally there would be a price to pay, or in other words, she had to bear the corresponding responsibility.
Murong Yanran hated her family and sect elders who arranged her life events, but she forgot that because she was the Murong family's direct daughter and the Celeritas Sword Sect's core disciple, she could enjoy resources that ordinary people could not reach.
Of course, maybe deep in her heart, the girl hoped that she was born in an ordinary family?
This was not what Lin Feng could guess. He could only speculate based on the existing clues, and it was impossible for him to really see through people's hearts.
Regarding Murong Yanran's psychological state, Lin Feng was not sure, nor did he deny it. It was still that sentence, looking at a problem from different angles, one would often get different conclusions.
For Lin Feng, the only thing he cared about was, what kind of variables would this matter add to the trip of him and Xiao Yan and the others?
Murong Yanran had already calmed down at this moment. Although her face was pale, she still bowed to Lin Feng politely: "Senior, please point out the direction of Ancestor Qing Wei's ancestor."
"Senior and your party are guests from afar. As a disciple of the Celeritas Sword Sect, I am willing to lead the way and bring senior and several senior brothers to tour the Cloud Traversing Peak."
Lin Feng looked at Murong Yanran with a slight smile, but did not speak.
Murong Yanran's mood suddenly became perturbed. She suddenly thought that since Lin Feng had already seen through the plans of Ancestor and Master, how would he let her go back so easily?
Detaining her here, the Great Qin Dynasty and the Celeritas Sword Sect would inevitably become hostile. The plans of Ancestor Qing Wei and the others would be ruined in minutes. Xuanmen Tianzong could easily destroy the plans of the Celeritas Sword Sect, and could even counter-attack the Celeritas Sword Sect.
On the agreed date of the fight, Lin Feng brought Xiao Yan to the Cloud Traversing Peak, but Murong Yanran could not show up. How would he explain to the Celeritas Sword Sect?
After the opening ceremony outside of Shazhou City, the names of Lin Feng and Xuanmen Tianzong had already been thoroughly established. Besides Lin Feng's own origin being a mystery, the identities and backgrounds of his disciples were already no longer a secret.
In the past, Xiao Yan went from a genius to a loser, and then after being taken in as a disciple by Lin Feng, his experience of soaring to the sky in one go became the inspirational model for all the young talents in the world.
Inevitably, the matter of Murong Yanran coming to break off the engagement that day was also brought up by people. After all, everyone has a heart for gossip, this kind of peach-colored lace was the most popular with the public.
Originally it was only a small circle of people, but with Lin Feng's recent great momentum, riding a dragon all the way, personally accompanying Xiao Yan to the Cloud Traversing Peak to keep the appointment, the people who knew already became more and more.
It was precisely because of this that the Celeritas Sword Sect felt an increasing headache.
If on the day of the wagered fight Murong Yanran really was unable to show up, outsiders would only think that she was afraid to fight, the result would be even more shameful than losing.
In addition, the Celeritas Sword Sect stood Crown Prince Chongyun up, at that time the pressure from both sides would come up together, and the Celeritas Sword Sect would no longer be able to survive.
Thinking of this, the gaze with which Murong Yanran looked at Lin Feng clearly became frightened.
But Lin Feng's attention was not on her, instead splitting out a strand of divine sense, crushing a sound transmission crystal, using a silent mana transmission method to communicate with the person on the other side of the crystal.
"Has anything interesting happened recently?"
On the other side of the crystal a clear female voice sounded. It was the voice of Taixu Temple's former saintess Yan Mingyue: "If speaking of interesting, then it would be you Sect Leader Lin, riding a dragon across half of the Great Qin Dynasty, personally accompanying this disciple to keep the appointment at the Cloud Traversing Peak."
After both sides had been in contact for a while, Lin Feng gradually became accustomed to Yan Mingyue's teasing: "You know what I'm asking."
Yan Mingyue naturally knew that what Lin Feng was referring to was the situation of him riding a dragon with great fanfare, and the reactions of the various powers towards this.
"The Great Qin Dynasty's heir apparent, Crown Prince Chongyun, recently left the Great Qing Dynasty's capital Xiling City, his whereabouts unknown." Silently Yan Mingyue said: "There is news that he is heading towards the Great Qin Dynasty's southeast territory."
The Great Qin Dynasty's southeast territory is the Celeritas Sword Sect's territory, the area where the Cloud Traversing Peak is located.
"Personally coming over?" Lin Feng calculated in his heart for a moment, suddenly asking: "I heard that the Great Qin Dynasty produced an extraordinary person?"
Yan Mingyue answered: "Sect Leader Lin is referring to their new Prime Minister right? Rumor has it that he doesn't have the slightest bit of cultivation, but subdued everyone in the Great Qin Dynasty. "
"To be able to cause such a ruckus, but not be a true cultivator, this person naturally has some areas that surpass others." Lin Feng smiled faintly, slowly calculating in his heart: "Thank you fellow Yan."
Yan Mingyue's tone was calm: "Sect Leader Lin is too polite. I wonder when your disciple Zhu Yi will return to Tianjing City? He has already not visited teacher uncle Meng's grave for a long time. "
Lin Feng asked indifferently: "Is this your question or is it asking on behalf of the Marquis of Xuanji Zhu Hongwu?"
Yan Mingyue answered: "Neither, I'm interrogating on behalf of Emperor Zhou."
Lin Feng smiled saying: "So you are not preparing to learn from Meng Bingyun and marry Zhu Hongwu, but rather directly enter the palace?"
"Sect leader Lin must be joking." Yan Mingyue's tone carried a bit of a smile: "What Mingyue seeks is completely different from teacher uncle Meng, so naturally I won't use the same method."
Lin Feng's pupils abruptly contracted. According to what he knows, in Taixu Temple, Meng Bingyun and Yan Mingyue should be on the same side. Now that Yan Mingyue said this, does it mean that she wants to change sides, or does she have some other thoughts?
Thoughts continuously turning in his heart, Lin Feng's tone did not reveal any clues: "So it's like this, then it's me who was rash."
Yan Mingyue continued to say: "That's right, there's something I need to inform sect leader Lin in advance. In a few days, Mingyue will be returning to my sect's White Cloud Mountain. At that time, I might not be able to contact sect leader Lin like now."
Lin Feng nodded his head slightly. Yan Mingyue informing him of this matter in advance is quite good, allowing him to make many arrangements in advance so that there won't be any sudden changes and he won't be caught unprepared.
"I wish fellow Yan a smooth journey." Lin Feng smiled faintly.
Yan Mingyue also smiled and said: "Mingyue will be very content if I don't get thrown out. Speaking of which, junior brother Pang returned to White Cloud Mountain before, with his talent and what he gained in the Sand Continent, I'm sure he will make a breakthrough very soon."
Lin Feng smiled, but did not continue on this topic, lightly saying: "I wish fellow Yan a smooth journey."
"I also wish sect leader Lin a smooth journey on Cloud Traversing Peak." Yan Mingyue smiled knowingly, and did not continue to talk about Pang Jie. After wishing Lin Feng a smooth journey, she hung up the call.
After thinking for a while, Lin Feng muttered to himself: "If I want to verify my guess, then I'll just have to go to a place."
He raised his head to look at Murong Yanran. Seeing Murong Yanran's uneasy eyes, he couldn't help but smile. Without further explanation, Murong Yanran lost consciousness with a roll of purple Qi.
After calling Xiao Yan and others back, Lin Feng removed the Barrier of Dharma Power and let Ancestor Qing Wei come closer.
Ancestor Qing Wei was also uneasy. Although he tried to pretend to be calm, his eyes kept observing the expressions of Lin Feng and his apprentices, lest they had already met Murong Yanran.
After receiving Lin Feng's order in advance, Xiao Yan and others all controlled their emotional changes, so that Ancestor Qing Wei couldn't find any clues.
The old man couldn't help but mutter more in his heart.
At this time, Lin Feng took the initiative to say with a smile: "Before going to Cloud Traversing Peak, I plan to go to a place on the way. Fellow Yan Mingyue, would you like to go with me?"
