Now that Fenghao had completely left the vicinity of the Fireflower House, he was heading towards the Ling Xiao Peak.
This was because the jade strip that he gave to Haotian contained his own divine sense imprint. That imprint could only be opened by Le Xin. If others opened it, they would immediately self-destruct. Moreover, Feng Hao could also sense it.
Now that so many days had passed, Feng Hao guessed that the jade strip should be in Le Xin's hands. So, as long as he left according to the previously agreed place, he would be able to meet Le Xin smoothly.
The place that Feng Hao had agreed on in the jade strip was a mountain range near Ling Xiao Peak, called the Ghost Mountain Range.
The Ghost Mountain Range was a mountain range filled with demonic beasts. In the Penglai World, there were thousands of such mountain ranges. Immediately, Feng Hao increased his speed and rushed over as soon as possible.
Because the agreed time was seven days, he had been delayed for a few days because of the matters of the Celestial Organization. The Fireflower House was located quite far from Ling Xiao Peak. Even if Feng Hao rushed all the way, it would still take some time.
However, Feng Hao did not delay too much. Along the way, there was no one following him. Obviously, there were no pursuers, so Feng Hao heaved a sigh of relief.
On a tall pavilion in Ling Xiao Peak, a graceful figure of a woman leaned against the guardrail, looking at the scenery in the distance. She was Le Xin.
"Le Xin, you are in a daze."
However, at this moment, a voice slowly rang out from behind her, breaking the silence here.
Le Xin suddenly recovered and looked behind her. A middle-aged man in a brocade robe appeared in front of her. Seeing the person who came, Le Xin smiled and said, "Father, why are you here?"
The person who came was Le Xin's father, the peak master of Ling Xiao Peak. Similar to the Valley Master of Xuan Dao Valley, he was the person in charge on the surface, but in reality, he did not have the final say in Ling Xiao Peak.
"It's nothing. Ever since I met you in the Haotian, I feel like you've changed a lot." The middle-aged man looked at Le Tian as a benevolent expression appeared on his face. He loved his daughter dearly.
"There's nothing abnormal about it. Isn't it the same?" The corners of Le Tian's mouth curled up, but she did not explain anything. After all, she did not want others to know that Feng Hao had already appeared in the Penglai Continent.
"Hehe, my daughter has grown up. She always has her own little secrets. Forget it, I won't ask you. I just happened to pass by and wanted to see you," the middle-aged man said with a smile.
"Isn't Second Brother going to marry Xuandao Valley's Huangfu Wushuang? Why are you still so free?" Le Xin covered her mouth and asked.
"It's not like I don't know your Second Brother's character. Moreover, this marriage is just an exchange of benefits between the two forces. With your Second Brother's character, what else can happen?" The middle-aged man shook his head when he heard Le Xin mention this matter.
At the mention of her second brother, Le Xin smiled bitterly. Her second brother was quite famous in the High Heaven Peak, but he was notorious. His cultivation was not weak, but he liked women and often lingered in some brothels.
Generally speaking, people like him wouldn't make much progress in their martial arts cultivation. However, her second brother was a strange existence. Even if he lusted after women all day long, his cultivation was not weak. Among the younger generation of the entire Ling Xiao Peak, he was ranked in the top.
He wouldn't object to the marriage this time. After all, Huangfu Wushuang's appearance was so stunning that it was common knowledge in the Penglai World. To a person like him, obtaining a beautiful wife for no reason was something that he couldn't be happier about.
"Father, if there's a day when the interests of the sect are involved, will I also be like this?"
Le Xin suddenly went silent for a moment, before she raised her head and asked. There was a little helplessness in her tone as she looked at the distant sky. From time to time, there would be birds passing by. She suddenly felt envious of those birds that could fly freely in the sky, unlike her, who was like a bird living in a cage all day and could only watch the sky outside.
Hearing his daughter's question, the middle-aged man was clearly stunned, but he soon fell into silence. The atmosphere between the two of them suddenly became heavy.
"Sigh."
The middle-aged man let out a long sigh and shook his head. He looked at Le Xin and said, "For people like us, if we want to obtain something, we must pay something. There are some things that we can't do as we please."
When Le Xin heard her father's words, she smiled bitterly. Indeed, take her as an example. She was the Saintess of the Ling Xiao Peak. This title was resounding enough, and she had a noble status that many people could not achieve in their lifetime. She had endless resources, and she didn't even need to worry about anything. However, one of the costs was that she had no freedom.
At least in terms of marriage, even if she was the Saintess, her fate would be the sect's interest. No one could avoid it unless one betrayed the sect and gave up everything.
However, Le Tian couldn't do this, and the Ling Xiao Peak would not allow her to do so.
"Alright, don't think so much. These things are not for you to decide. It's even an exaggeration to say that even I can't decide your future path." The middle-aged man shook his head and smiled bitterly. There was nothing sadder than this. His daughter's fate was not something that he could control.
"It's okay. I'm just sighing. I understand." Le Xin smiled, although her smile was forced. She said to the middle-aged man, "Father, you can go ahead with your work. I will stay for a while."
"Okay, then I will leave first. In half a month, it will be the day that your second brother will marry Huangfu Wushuang. At that time, you have to dress up prettily. People say that Huangfu Wushuang is the most beautiful in the entire Penglai World, but I don't really believe it. Only my daughter can bear this title."
The middle-aged man also laughed. After seeing that Le Xin didn't have any strange expression, he turned around and left. After all, he had too many things to do in the day.
Looking at her father's departing figure, the smile on Le Xin's pretty face gradually froze. In the end, she even gradually became expressionless. She turned around and looked into the distance. That direction was where the Ghost Mountain was located.
"Feng Hao, have you arrived?"
