Chapter 1262: Chapter 1262 Crimson Phoenix Seeks Medical Help

The person who came running, Feng Jun actually knew. He was a disciple of Bai Luan, a male cultivator, at the Qi Refining Ninth Layer—unfortunately, he forgot his surname.

He smiled and nodded, "Fellow cultivator, aren’t you being a bit too hasty rushing like this?"

The cultivator at Qi Refining Ninth Layer could only answer with a bitter smile, "Mountain Master Feng is joking. While in the Thunder Plains, walking is the safest, and added to being in a hurry to get here, all one can do is run."

Feng Jun asked in confusion, "Is there something urgent?"

This disciple came because someone in the sect heard that a loose cultivator, extremely skilled in deduction, had arrived at Thunder Plains.

The discrimination against loose cultivators by the Four Sects and Wutai is deeply rooted. Strictly speaking, loose cultivators are the final link in the Cultivation World’s chain of disdain, the Four Sects disdain Wutai, Wutai disdains Two Peaks One Valley... and finally the loose cultivators.

Thus, the Crimson Pheonix Sect did not pay too much attention to this person, even when the disciple reported the process of the ninety-nine-year Cold Li Serpent’s outbreak, the higher-ups were unimpressed.

Knowing the result and deducing the process was something even Guo Xiaosong could achieve, not to mention the Crimson Pheonix Sect specializing in fire, they were naturally not impressed.

In the end, however, a detail drew the Crimson Pheonix Sect’s attention: among this person’s companions were two High Disciples of Taiqing.

In terms of outside reputation, An Yuhong was more renowned than Kong Ziyi, but Kong Ziyi had a few intimate friends in the Crimson Pheonix Sect, so she wasn’t entirely unknown.

As for their deeds at Mingsha Fang Market, there were indeed few who knew within the Crimson Pheonix Sect—just a mere market, why would it warrant the attention of the Four Great Sects? Hence, they naturally did not know how strong Kong Ziyi’s backing was, they only knew she was at the Intermediate Level of Out-of-Dust.

Taiqing was originally renowned for proficiency in calculations, the fact that these two high disciples could befriend a loose cultivator indicated this person had some repute.

The disciple of Bai Luan inadvertently heard this matter as a curiosity, but accidently caught the mention of "Feng Jun," then upon inquiry, confirmed others referred to him as Mountain Master Feng, promptly deducing: it must be that one from Mount Zhige.

Having dealt with each other, he hurried over, wanting to ask if he could deduce for the Crimson Pheonix disciples—mostly to figure out if Feng Jun possessed that strength.

Upon meeting an old acquaintance, Feng Jun was somewhat pleased, but the inquiry somewhat irritated him, so he asked if Bai Luan was in the Crimson Pheonix Sect—his level was slightly inadequate.

The disciple apologized, saying Bai Luan had gone to attend the Mundane Communication Deliberative Assembly and hadn’t returned yet.

However, he also understood Feng Jun’s concerns, saying not only Bai Luan, but Hei Luan also went, two High Disciples had gone from Crimson Pheonix.

In some management matters, Crimson Pheonix has considerable ideas, they knew Bai Luan and Hei Luan were rivals, but the sect did not oppose this moderate competition.

For instance, this communication deliberative assembly was jointly responsible by the two women, when vying for external benefits, they wouldn’t hinder each other, but undoubtedly, each hoped to perform better than the other.

How can one perform better than the other? Understand the situation, fill the gaps, actively propose more reasonable suggestions, efficiently and swiftly rebut the opponent’s unreasonable demands...

In short, their rivalry reflected in their ability to secure resources for the Crimson Pheonix Sect.

To be honest, this approach is quite effective. Bai Luan had stayed on Mount Zhige before, having some understanding of communications, while Hei Luan, although she had also been to Mount Zhige, did not like Feng Jun much and didn’t carefully understand the local situations.

However, even with Bai Luan having a negligible advantage, she was still frantically chased by Hei Luan, to the point she couldn’t devote herself to other things, let alone return to the Crimson Pheonix Sect temporarily.

The disciple of Bai Luan certainly couldn’t disclose all these details, but he explained vaguely, intelligent people naturally understood.

Then the topic returned to the present, this individual wanted to invite Feng Jun to Crimson Pheonix to help deduce for fellow disciples—he truly lacked the qualification, but unfortunately, his master was not present.

Feng Jun was contemplating how to tactfully refuse when Kong Ziyi spoke up, "When my sect’s senior brother sought Mountain Master Feng’s deduction, he made the effort to travel from countless miles away, it is truly inappropriate for you to invite Mountain Master Feng to go."

Even the Taiqing high disciples sought help from Feng Jun... well, only Kong Ziyi could say this, anyone else saying it would be improper, and even for her, it couldn’t be openly stated which senior brother it was.

Then An Yuhong chimed in, "When I sought Mountain Master Feng’s deduction, I also went to find him, you minor cultivator really dare think that way."

Are you also seeking Mountain Master Feng’s deduction? This person was stunned for a while before hastily cupping his hands, "I truly acted impulsively."

"No worries," Feng Jun smiled and shook his head, unexpectedly catching a glance from Kong Ziyi, feeling puzzled internally while speaking politely, "We knew each other since insignificant times, no need to act so distant."

Chen Junwei behind him couldn’t help but roll his eyes, when you two met, you were both Qi Refining Immortals, one was even a disciple of the Four Great Sects—do you perhaps misunderstand the term ’insignificant’?

Then he saw this person across sigh with a bitter smile, "Upon meeting again, Mountain Master is already an Intermediate Level Out-of-Dust Immortal, I am still at the insignificant level."

Feng Jun laughed heartily, patting his shoulder, "Ten years to hone a sword, there’s no rush."

After this person bid farewell, Feng Jun looked at Kong Ziyi, giving her a puzzled glance.

Kong Ziyi responded with a smile, "I was worried you’d agree to the request and go to the Crimson Phoenix Sect for divination... You’re too agreeable."

Many people think I’m hard to talk to, Feng Jun also laughed, "I don’t plan to visit them directly; those who seek help must at least show some humility... Wait, are you saying visiting them might cause some issues?"

Kong Ziyi vaguely replied, "The gates of the Crimson Phoenix Sect are difficult to enter, but I’m afraid it might be easy to get in and hard to get out."

Feng Jun looked at her skeptically, "Why would it be hard to get out... Is it because there are few male cultivators in the Crimson Phoenix Sect?"

Having served in the army for three years, seeing how people say a sow could surpass Diao Chan’s beauty, such phenomena objectively exist, especially when he’s so handsome.

"What are you thinking?" Kong Ziyi looked at him amused and distressed, pondered a bit, then said, "You’ll find out sooner or later, it has something to do with their cultivation techniques."

Feng Jun wrinkled his brow in thought, tentatively asked, "Fire cultivation techniques and... female cultivators?"

Kong Ziyi gave him an approving look, then smiled and answered, "You don’t need to worry, if they look for you for divination, it’ll likely only take two or three days."

Feng Jun’s mood grew slightly heavy, as if involved in such matters, entering the gates of Crimson Phoenix could indeed be difficult to exit.

Kong Ziyi mentioned two or three days, but on the fourth day, no one from the Crimson Phoenix Sect came, and even the thunder cultivators seeking divination started to dwindle—not because no one wished for divination, but because the threshold of ten Spirit Stones wasn’t considered low.

Feng Jun felt a bit bored, but the three women were happily cultivating, An Yuhong also found that cultivating Yin Floating Thunder on Thunder Plains felt more transparent, though Feng Jun thought it was psychologically induced.

Finally, that evening, a female cultivator from the Crimson Phoenix Sect came, two Dustless Immortals, yet they were looking for Kong Ziyi.

These two were acquaintances of Kong Ziyi, visiting both to reconnect and to inquire about Feng Jun’s divination skill level—whether he truly helped Taiqing’s immortals with divination, considering they could share useful information as close friends.

Kong Ziyi explicitly answered, Mountain Master Feng has quite strong divination abilities in certain aspects, more than one immortal from Taiqing has sought his divination, and the results were extremely good, even gaining recognition from certain Peak Masters.

As for who specifically consulted Feng Jun for divination, Kong Ziyi expressed apologies, aside from An Yuhong, it’s inappropriate to mention others.

Then these two inquired about Feng Jun’s efficiency in divination—worthy of being one of the Four Great Sects, they were excellent at grasping the key points.

Kong Ziyi indicated that divination for the Qi Refinement Realm was relatively simple, divination in the Dustless Realm wasn’t much quicker.

Then she shifted the topic, mentioning the requirements during divination—you must bring all potentially necessary items.

As for the fees, Kong Ziyi directly set the threshold at thirty and three hundred, thirty for the Qi Refinement Realm, three hundred for the Dustless Realm.

These two immortals weren’t foolish and quipped that Ziyi was being biased, the threshold for Thunder Cultivators was only ten Spirit Stones—is she trying to exploit the rich or eager to save up for a bridal dowry?

Kong Ziyi gently retorted: Can Thunder Cultivators from Thunder Plains be compared with Crimson Phoenix disciples? Although Thunder Plains is an affiliate force of the Crimson Phoenix Sect, the inheritance of Thunder Cultivators lacks a cohesive system, and many minor issues cannot be remedied, thus the threshold fee can’t be too high.

Crimson Phoenix is different, with a powerful cultivation system that facilitates error correction, regardless of encountering issues, one can spar and seek guidance from senior brothers, sisters, juniors, and apprentices, if urgent, ask masters for help.

Issues difficult for the Crimson Phoenix Sect to handle, when coming to Feng Jun... Is the difficulty level the same?

Kong Ziyi didn’t mention Thunder Cultivators being poor or Crimson Phoenix disciples being wealthy, as speaking like that could stir envy.

Yet, precisely because she didn’t say it, the two close friends assumed she aimed to protect Feng Jun whole-heartedly, even jokingly asked when they’d make it official—was he about to become an apparent son-in-law of Taiqing?

They even argued about this, one insisted falling for a High Disciple of Taiqing means the Loose Cultivator would surely become a son-in-law, while the other said Feng Jun’s adept divination skills ensure he’ll always be regarded as a distinguished guest, making him genuinely unwilling to become a son-in-law.

The two giggled and debated, completely unaware that half a mile away, elsewhere in the dwelling, a subtle spiritual wave emerged and vanished in a Spirit Beast Bag, even a Golden Core Master couldn’t detect it...

After the close friends left, the next midday, two immortals from the Crimson Phoenix Sect came to Thunder Plains, one male and one female.

Among Crimson Phoenix’s immortals, males accounted for less than five percent, and this male immortal already had cultivation reaching the Dustless Realm’s fifth layer, named Yan Beifeng, renowned within the Crimson Phoenix Sect.

He first contacted two junior sisters, then went to Feng Jun’s quarters to knock—by now, Feng Jun and his group had already moved into the living area, at the bottom of that grand sinkhole.

After meeting Feng Jun, Yan Beifeng directly stated, "I’ve prepared the herbs, just want to ask you to help sort the order, if it makes sense, I’m willing to pay a thousand Spirit Stones."
