Ye Yun was clearly unaware that Fang Zhiwei, whom he regarded as his hope, was engaged in proselytizing within the master-disciple space.
His confident actions had gradually fanned the embers within his disciples' hearts into a raging inferno.
Upon leaving the master-disciple space, Ye Yun was surprised to discover that Xiao Xue's cultivation had grown considerably stronger outside, reaching the Quasi-Xuan Immortal realm.
It was evident that his own cultivation advancement had brought further benefits to Xiao Xue.
"It seems I need to consider preparing an immortal relic for Xiao Xue..."
Although Lin Xueyan possessed one, which would be simple to retrieve, what kind of master would take back a gift they had given?
If he were to break his word, it might not be long before he truly ended up with disciples who defied their master, which was far more outrageous than the "defying master" in certain other contexts.
Ye Yun pondered for a long time and finally decided to first reach Chaofeng Mountain, and then inquire about immortal relics from the Celestial Phoenix Empress, hoping to perhaps procure some in bulk.
"Chaofeng Mountain... Celestial Phoenix Empress... Experiment... Alas, I hope this journey goes smoothly..."
The distance to North Wind Celestial City, which housed the celestial continent's teleportation array, was still considerable.
After spending some time alone, he received a request to leave from Fang Zhiwei within the master-disciple space, so he released her.
Upon seeing Fang Zhiwei, Ye Yun asked with a gentle smile.
"How was it? Was that space interesting? How did you get along with your senior sisters?"
"Mmm, mmm, mmm, it was very interesting! I got along very well with my senior sisters too; they all loved the welcome gifts I gave them."
"Hmm? What welcome gifts?"
"Uh..."
Fang Zhiwei coughed lightly and said, "Nothing much, just some books I usually read..."
Before Ye Yun could press further, she changed the subject.
"Oh right, and that Trial Tower, it was too difficult! I got hurt so badly by the people inside..."
Hearing this, Ye Yun chuckled, "It's good that it's difficult; it can better temper your combat ability, lest you be unable to defeat others."
"But I'm not primarily focused on combat strength."
Fang Zhiwei looked dejected. Her combat strength was already not high, and those within the Trial Tower were practically monsters!
Speaking of which, Ye Yun suddenly remembered something and activated his Heavenly Eye to check.
[Name: Fang Zhiwei]
[Cultivation: Saint Realm Fifth Level]
[Constitution: Star-Moon Immortal Body (can be upgraded to Star-Moon Divine Body by relying on the Star-Moon Flower)]
[Comprehension: Immortal Grade (can be significantly improved by relying on the Moon God's Fruit)]
[Special Divine Ability: Destiny Astrology]
[Immortal Divine Ability: None currently]
[Destiny Value: Five hundred and fifteen (Person of Destiny)]
Indeed, as the daughter of the Astrology Sect Master, her talent was exceptionally outstanding. Excluding cultivation, everything else was comparable to his own.
As for the treasures that could upgrade her constitution and comprehension, Ye Yun had never heard of them, but judging by their names, they were no ordinary items.
And the destiny value of over five hundred was among the highest Ye Yun had seen.
Coupled with the special divine ability she possessed, Ye Yun couldn't help but ask.
"By the way, since you come from the Astrology Immortal Sect, you should be able to divine fortunes, right?"
Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, she glared at him indignantly, stomping her feet in anger and saying.
"It's Astrology! Astrology! Not fortune-telling! Our Astrology is different from those charlatans who deceive people!"
It was clear that as someone from Astrology, she had an inexplicable persistence regarding the terminology.
Ye Yun smiled helplessly, "Alright, alright, Astrology. In that case, can you divine my destiny for my upcoming trip to Chaofeng Mountain?"
Upon hearing that her master wanted a divination, Fang Zhiwei's interest was piqued.
"Yes, yes! Of course!"
Fang Zhiwei quickly said, "Then please give me a drop of your blood. It will be more accurate."
Ye Yun nodded, then squeezed out a drop of blood, which floated into his disciple's hand.
After receiving the blood, Fang Zhiwei's small face turned serious. She held the fresh blood in both hands, slowly closed her eyes, and began to chant softly.
"With my heart, I inquire of the destined star, with my soul, I seek the future of destiny..."
As Fang Zhiwei's voice echoed, the drop of blood in her palm transformed into golden light.
Around her, points of starlight began to shimmer, gathering like a celestial river, swirling around her.
At this moment, Fang Zhiwei was like a goddess of stars, her aura becoming incredibly sacred and profound.
Before long, the drop of blood, now a golden light, formed a line of text before her.
"Abundant as heavenly stars, utmost auspicious..."
Seeing this line of text, Ye Yun couldn't help but smile.
"It seems there will be no danger on this trip to Chaofeng Mountain."
Although he didn't understand what "abundant as heavenly stars" meant, he knew that "utmost auspicious" was a good thing.
Fang Zhiwei opened her eyes and looked. After a moment of surprise, she couldn't help but cough lightly and remind him.
"Um... Disciple wasn't divining good or bad fortune."
"What do you mean? What was this divination for?"
Fang Zhiwei's small face blushed. Honestly, it was her first time seeing such a positive outcome. She said softly and slowly.
"Of course, it was... your romantic fortune, Master. You are about to have very strong romantic fortune."
"..."
Ye Yun's mouth twitched slightly, "Who asked you to divine that?"
Fang Zhiwei pouted playfully, sticking out her small tongue and saying.
"You didn't say what you wanted to divine! Disciple naturally chose what she was interested in."
"So now that it's been said, can we continue?"
"Of course, but I'll need blood again."
"Alright."
Helplessly, Ye Yun had to squeeze out another drop of blood.
Fang Zhiwei repeated her previous actions. Before long, the golden light coalesced into four lines of text.
[Star radiance dim, sun and moon will fall, like light, like shadow, fixed in the heart!]
Ye Yun looked at these sixteen characters with some confusion.
But Fang Zhiwei was stunned, even saying with disbelief.
"How could this be..."
Ye Yun raised an eyebrow and asked, "Is there a problem with this result?"
"Not only is there a problem, but it's a big one!"
Fang Zhiwei secretly glanced at Ye Yun and slowly explained.
"If there were only the first two lines, it would mean you would face a mortal peril on this journey."
"However, with the latter two lines, it signifies that while you face mortal peril on this journey, there might also be a great opportunity appearing."
"The outcome, in the end, will depend on your intentions..."
After this explanation, Ye Yun's brow furrowed slightly.
"It seems this trip to Chaofeng Mountain will indeed not be entirely smooth."
But regardless, Ye Yun had made up his mind to go and had nothing to dwell on.
After all, compared to believing in fate, he preferred to believe that success lies in human effort, and man can conquer heaven!
Half a day later, Ye Yun and Fang Zhiwei arrived at North Wind Celestial City.
Compared to Yuan Yi City, this place was several times more prosperous, and the flow of people was immeasurably higher.
"Ah, we're finally in a city! I really want to wander around here!"
Fang Zhiwei curiously surveyed her surroundings, while Ye Yun said with a hint of helplessness.
"I'll bring you to wander around next time. We're in a bit of a hurry for Chaofeng Mountain this time."
Hearing this, Fang Zhiwei nodded obediently.
"That's fine too. Disciple is even more looking forward to what Chaofeng Mountain looks like!"
Then Ye Yun led her directly towards the Celestial Continent's teleportation array located in the east of the city.
However, upon arriving, the scene before him caused Ye Yun's brow to furrow.
"It seems things are truly not going smoothly... This is a bit troublesome now."
