Chapter 225

In the courtyard, Princess Yanfei wore a long gold-and-blue dress. As she formed hand seals, the flowing light between heaven and earth—primarily the radiance of the sun—was drawn in. Guided by her internal energy, it condensed into a lifelike three-legged Jin Wu.

After performing the Yin-Yang art she had mastered, Yanfei channeled the technique Su Xuan had taught her to execute another spell.

Named "Violent Sun," this technique caused the space around her to instantly distort—a phenomenon occurring under the scorching high temperature—while the moisture in the air was simultaneously evaporated completely.

The three-legged Jin Wu that Yanfei had condensed and suspended before her was like a fish in water, becoming increasingly active as golden flames began to coalesce upon its body.

Seeing this scene, Yanfei's eyes brightened.

"880" Indeed, while Yin-Yang arts can utilize the environment to achieve greater power, this type of spell that artificially alters the environment still left her feeling shocked.

She knew very well that this was likely not the full extent of Su Xuan's methods, but merely an insignificant one among the many he possessed.

Donghuang Taiyi had once investigated Su Xuan and had even briefly mentioned him to Yanfei. At the very least, as far as Yanfei knew, Su Xuan possessed other, even more powerful arts.

Such as... Summoning Wind and Rain!

Before Su Xuan taught her this art, she might have assumed that Summoning Wind and Rain was a scam, but after personally experiencing the profoundness of the technique, she gradually formed a conjecture.

Su Xuan might truly be able to... Summon Wind and Rain.

Fortunately, Su Xuan did not know of Yanfei's thoughts; otherwise, he would have smiled bitterly, thinking she was overestimating him far too much.

Her initial guess had actually been correct: Summoning Wind and Rain was indeed a scam.

Yanfei continued to diligently practice the technique Su Xuan had taught her.

In the courtyard, the temperature fluctuated, and golden flames occasionally flickered past.

When a woman in a blue dress arrived, Yanfei was still practicing with single-minded devotion.

Seeing that Yanfei had not noticed her, the woman's face immediately showed a trace of displeasure, and a cold voice emerged from her lips, "It seems you have been doing quite well these past few days!"

"What? Did you successfully obtain even greater power from that person?"

As she spoke, the woman in blue flicked her sleeves, and a silvery-white light flew out like moonlight. However, before it could reach Yanfei, golden firelight suddenly appeared in mid-air, blocking the silver light and subsequently annihilating it.

Yanfei stopped her cultivation and looked at the person who had attacked her, asking coldly, "Why have you come?"

"You have the nerve to ask that?" Hearing this, an inexplicable fire surged from the bottom of Moon God's heart.

Donghuang Taiyi and Star Soul had already left the Yin-Yang School earlier, and the new Sect Master, Su Xuan, was a hands-off leader. Aside from having Lord Yunzhong send a set of alchemy equipment to Xianyang earlier, he had basically not asked about the affairs of the Yin-Yang School at all.

The only remaining high-level members of the Yin-Yang School were Dongjun and Moon God. It could be said that after Donghuang Taiyi and Star Soul left, all the affairs of the Yin-Yang School were handled by the two of them. As a result, a few days ago, Dongjun had also left the Yin-Yang School along with Yan Lingji.

This meant that all the affairs of the Yin-Yang School had fallen onto Moon God.

Although she knew Dongjun had gone out with Yan Lingji to cultivate and pursue greater power, it sounded as if only she wanted to cultivate and gain power—I need to cultivate too!

Especially now, after feeling that Yanfei's power had grown stronger, Moon God always felt as if she had lost out.

Just as Yanfei viewed Donghuang Taiyi as a rival, always wanting to surpass him, Moon God viewed Yanfei as a rival. The reason for this was that they had joined the Yin-Yang School at roughly the same time, and as fellow women, everyone's gaze fell only on Yanfei, calling her the "Wonder Woman of Yin-Yang Arts," which inevitably made Moon God feel a bit of jealousy.

She had always viewed Yanfei as a rival, but unfortunately, no matter how hard she tried, her natural talent was indeed a bit inferior to Yanfei's, which led to Yanfei becoming Dongjun while she could only become Moon God.

However, aside from this, their relationship in private was actually quite good.

After Donghuang Taiyi left, Dongjun Yanfei had once said that powerful power did not need to be sought outside, as it was hidden within the Yin-Yang School. She realized that what Yanfei spoke of was Su Xuan, but Moon God was skeptical about whether Yanfei could obtain power from Su Xuan.

Although Su Xuan had defeated Donghuang Taiyi and leaped to become the new Sect Master of the Yin-Yang School, he was an outsider after all. No one knew what kind of attitude he held toward the Yin-Yang School; why would he teach powerful arts to others for no reason?

Moon God was a very realistic person and could not help but mock Yanfei's naivety.

Until now, she discovered she was wrong.

She did not know what Yanfei had done, but her strength had indeed increased, which meant Su Xuan had truly taught her powerful arts.

Yanfei did not know Moon God's many thoughts, and after hearing the anger in Moon God's words, she chose to remain silent and offered no reply.

Moon God raised her eyebrows and asked Yanfei again, "Where is Master Xuantian?"

"Do you have business with him?" Yanfei inquired.

Moon God's lips curled into a faint smile as she said, "Master Xuantian is the new Sect Master of our Yin-Yang School. Does it mean only you, this Dongjun, are allowed to come and pay him a visit, and I, this Protector, am not allowed to pay him a visit?"

Yanfei was stunned. Although Su Xuan had taught her greater power, Su Xuan had indeed never said such things.

After a moment of thought, Yanfei said to Moon God, "He is cultivating inside!"

Moon God's eyes brightened, and she then walked straight past Dongjun toward the room where Su Xuan was. When she reached the door, she lowered her head, her attitude submissive, and a calm voice entered the room, "Moon God requests an audience with Master Xuantian!"

Because the members of the Yin-Yang School addressed the former Sect Master as "Master Donghuang," after Su Xuan succeeded as Sect Master, Moon God and the others also addressed him as "Master."

Su Xuan had originally intended to correct their form of address, as "Master" was not majestic enough—titles like "Sect Master" or "Leader" were more imposing—but after thinking about it, he eventually gave up.

Inside the house, after Yan Lingji and Yanfei had each gone to cultivate, Su Xuan, who had finally found some free time to practice for a while, heard the voice outside and slowly opened his eyes.

"Come in!"
