Yan Yuxi had never t Yue Qing, but her family had so connections with Master Yue.
As for what she wanted with Yue Qing? She wanted to know if she could et Feng Jun in advance.
Master Yue lived up to his reputation by receiving Yan Yuxi, whom he had never t before, and answering her question.
However, Yan Yuxi didn’t want to wait that long, so she tried asking, "Isn’t there any way to et him sooner?"
"It’s basically impossible," Yue Qing shook his head. "His daily routine is quite regular, which I don’t think is a bad thing. Moreover... is there a particular reason you are in such a hurry to see him?"
There was no particular reason; Miss Yan simply didn’t want to waste ti—she believed her ti was much more valuable than others’.
So, she hesitated for a mont before replying, "There are matters at ho that urgently need my attention. I hope Master Yue can offer so guidance."
Yue Qing imdiately understood what was going on, thinking, do you believe you’re a genius, and everyone must indulge you?
He didn’t hold back and very straightforwardly said, "Your ti is precious, and so is others’. If soone were seriously injured and in urgent need of treatnt, that would be different, but your current reason is hardly convincing to , let alone to Mountain Master Feng."
Yan Yuxi’s arrival attracted quite a crowd. The reaction from the Crimson Phoenix disciples was minor, but the Taiqing and Qinggang male disciples were nurous and eager to see the first beauty of the Cultivation World.
Indeed, aside from her looks, the fact that she reached the eighth level of Out-of-this-world cultivation before sixty marked her as a prodigy with remarkable talent in any of the Four Great Sects.
However, due to the enmity between the Taiqing and Qinggang Sects, Qinggang disciples were wary of their Golden Core being reprimanded, leading to more Crimson Phoenix disciples being among the onlookers.
Of course, i Jiushan also ca, his face sowhat pale with a mix of anxiety and anticipation in his eyes.
Huang Wanqiu continued making biting remarks, saying, "Beautiful enough, but too strong an aura," and "Too few can match such a girl, and they certainly don’t include sleazy uncles..."
Yan Yuxi stayed in Yue Qing’s residence for less than twenty minutes before taking her leave.
Soon after, people ca to her residence seeking an audience, even Yu Pao from Wuwei Peak observed from afar.
Yan Yuxi handled matters with propriety, stating the hour was late and she would be at Tiantong’s manor tomorrow for tea, where everyone could chat for a while. As for inviting anyone into her residence? Apologies, it was her personal space and not suitable for entertaining guests.
The next morning, she indeed went to the Tiantong Comrcial Alliance’s manor, and many ca to chat with her—more than ten Out-of-this-world cultivators.
During the conversation, she again asked how she could et Feng Jun sooner, but everyone expressed their inability to help—Yan Yuxi felt the waiting ti was too long, yet so thought it too short.
Either way, the four days finally passed, and Feng Jun had gathered seventeen candidates needing deducing.
After deducing for all seventeen, it was around two or three in the afternoon when Feng Jun finally t the "first beauty of the Cultivation World."
The Big Boss was a bit disappointed with the first beauty, "Her mouth is a little small, not single-eyelid, her forehead is a bit flat, her earlobes are a bit small... these flaws all over her, and she’s still the first beauty... huh?"
In Feng Jun’s view, these so-called flaws truly weren’t flaws at all, and seed like nitpicking.
What’s wrong with not having single eyelids? Double eyelids are lovely too; a slightly flat forehead... must it be prominent to be considered beautiful?
At this mont, a middle-aged woman with a cultivation level at the Initial Golden Core Stage, standing behind Yan Yuxi, slightly furrowed her brow when the Big Boss emitted a thought, and actually took out a Compass.
"Hmm?" Feng Jun softly snorted, looking at the woman, "What does this an?"
The woman cupped her hands, responding with neither arrogance nor servility, "Mountain Master Feng, my lady is incredibly talented and has been susceptible to disturbances from all sorts of spiritual bodies and monsters since she was young. Therefore, our family crafted a ’Soul asuring Compass’ for her, and now this item seems to be reacting..."
"Put it away," Feng Jun said casually, yet with an unquestionable tone, "I spend my days deducing the Heavenly chanism, inevitably causing so disturbance in karma. The high-level mbers of the Four Great Sects haven’t comnted on it, so you’re overthinking."
The middle-aged woman hesitated briefly, speaking with a troubled face, "But... this Soul asuring Compass is very accurate."
Feng Jun’s face slightly darkened, and he spoke with imposing authority, "As guests, you should certainly show so respect to your host."
This statent was quite severe. If they couldn’t even show this level of respect, he, as the host, would have the right to expel these impolite guests.
"Alright, Sister Qiu," Yan Yuxi waved her hand, speaking calmly, "Gu Yue and Master Nichang are here, plus Master Yue... an unexpected event won’t occur here, so you don’t need to be too nervous."
Autumn Sister put away the soul asurent compass, and Yan Yuxi looked at Feng Jun and spoke, "I’d like to ask Mountain Master Feng to help deduce when it would be absolutely safe to form a Golden Core and what I should be cautious about during the process?"
Feng Jun looked at her and did not rush to deduce, but spoke slowly, "If you have any requirents, say them all at once. It’s not easy to deduce, and repeating it will be very costly."
"Then I’ll get straight to the point," Yan Yuxi was not polite and dared to make a request, "Last year in the Burning Desert, my companion and I encountered a nest of dragon blood scorpions. I was fine, but one of my companions was poisoned..."
It turned out her request for deducing for forming a Golden Core was genuine, but her ultimate goal was to gauge Feng Jun’s skills, hoping to ask him to treat her companion.
Feng Jun casually swiped his mobile phone and stated lightly, "So you’re already sixty-two years old at the ninth level of the outdust stage. I wouldn’t recomnd you attempt forming a Golden Core in the short term, not in the next three to five years... two hundred Spirit Stones, thank you."
With such a casual deduction, he actually didn’t plan on asking for Spirit Stones, but since the other party boasts of being "the first beauty," if he didn’t charge so Spirit Stones, it might seem like he’s trying to curry favor, so he’d better charge symbolically.
"Co on," Yan Yuxi looked at him, crying and laughing, "I haven’t even taken out anything to match yet, I understand your rules."
Before she ca, she had learned about Feng Jun’s deduction rules. Although she wasn’t very familiar, she wasn’t completely clueless. Moreover, two days ago, she had chatted and inquired with others over tea.
Now Feng Jun deducing so casually and only charging two hundred Spirits, she felt the other party was too perfunctory.
The girls’ thoughts are just strange like that. When soone tries to flatter her, she might feel a little disdainful, but when soone ignores her, she feels indignant.
Upon hearing that she was so familiar with his rules, Feng Jun was a bit surprised and also a bit delighted—the one who claims to be the number one beauty in the Cultivation World can actually inquire about him so thoroughly, which made him feel a sense of achievent.
But he still waved his hand and said lightly, "No matching necessary, what you’re asking for is a 100% chance to form a Golden Core. No matter what you take out, it can’t match that result... too hasty!"
He said too hasty, but also felt a bit sentintal in his heart. Comparing people is indeed unfair. For most who reach the peak of the outdust stage, a chance over fifty percent is delightful, yet here soone requires a one hundred percent chance.
"Really?" Yan Yuxi’s eyes turned as she took out a few boxes, a few bottles, and five pieces of Obsidian, then cupped her hands toward Feng Jun, "Please, Mountain Master Feng, deduce for again, and the price is negotiable."
This shows how those who are arrogant can be annoying, as they tend to have their own strong opinions, thinking others are insignificant, while they alone know how to think.
Feng Jun disliked this feeling—professional matters should be left for professionals to handle.
However, since the other party was a beauty, he didn’t bother disputing further, and after swiping his mobile phone again, he raised his eyebrows in surprise and said, "You actually have Chaos Wind... you’re indeed well-prepared."
Chaos Wind is much rarer than Nine Heavens Fierce Wind, which could be encountered in the Fierce Wind Layer—Qinggang Disciples get body-tempered by the Nine Heavens Fierce Wind, but for Chaos Wind, one has to go to the Void to look for it.
In small worlds, when Chaos first opens, it is easier to collect Chaos Wind, but that’s serendipitous. Often when Great Dao Laws evolve, being able to capture a few strands is already quite fortunate.
That is to say, Chaos Wind contains Heavenly Dao rules, unlike Nine Heavens Fierce Wind, which can only be used for body-tempering.
The bottle Yan Yuxi took out contained a small strand of Chaos Wind. Although it was just a little, selling it to soone in urgent need could easily fetch a price of over a thousand dium Spirits.
"Yes," Yan Yuxi nodded proudly, then smiled sweetly, "Mountain Master Feng is indeed an expert. I use it not only to ensure forming a Golden Core but also to lay a good foundation for forming a Nascent Soul."
This is not only a real wealthy individual but also overly confident. Not to ntion that using this little bit of Chaos Wind now would bring hardly any benefits for forming a Nascent Soul, but... are you sure you won’t fall during the Golden Core Stage after forming a Golden Core?
Feng Jun thought again about the first ti he t Huang Fu Wu Xia at that ti, he only thought the Huang Fu Family was extravagantly wealthy. Comparing them to the Yan Family now... it’s not even close.
But such self-confidence from her doesn’t cause too much resentnt from others, and Feng Jun couldn’t help but think of i Jiushan: Young man, just how big of a heart must you have to dare to pursue this woman?
It seed to him that i Jiushan’s self-confidence surpassed Yan Yuxi’s by a hundredfold.
Of course, these thoughts were just montary, and Feng Jun imdiately shook his head, "Still no good. Even with these, your chance of forming a Golden Core doesn’t reach ninety percent. I advise you to be cautious."
"Not even ninety percent?" Yan Yuxi incredulously widened her eyes, her long lashes fluttering.
The next mont, she picked up a piece of Obsidian and looked suspiciously at Feng Jun, "Do you know what this is?"
"Haha," Feng Jun chuckled disdainfully, at this mont, he was truly angered by the other’s arrogance.
He lifted his chin, "Since you don’t trust , you’re free to leave... but leave behind the two hundred Spirit Stones."
