Aiding My Queen With My System - Chapter 23
Chapter 23 I Actually Ran Into the Legendary Sect?
Chu Feng smiled and said, “My name is Chu Feng and the person next to me is my wife, Ji Rui. As for the person behind me, his name is Xu Yi.”
He noticed that there was something strange about how Ji Rui and Xu Yi looked at the woman named Weidai He. She wore a lot of precious jewelry in her complicated hairdo, and her dress was equally intricate and gorgeous.
The two of them looked stunned to see the woman.
It seems they both know this woman called Weidai He?
However, this woman moved with a natural air of nobility and her temperament was like a graceful peony flower. After Weidai He heard what Chu Feng said, she sized him up again with smiling eyes.
“Mmm- He’s indeed a handsome man, but he does look better than you, my husband.”
Weidai He covered her face with her handkerchief, but everyone at the table could hear her melodious giggle.
Of course. The girl certainly has good taste.
Chu Feng silently gave her a thumbs up.
Yan Bang looked at her resentfully and said sadly, “My wife, you really don’t cherish what you already have. Back then, it was you who said that I’m the most handsome man in the world…”
Weidai He smiled shyly and glanced at Yan Bang with flushed cheeks.
“Aye!”
Yan Bang quickly adjusted his state of mind and said to Chu Feng with a smile, “We came from afar and the three of you don’t seem to be locals either. Since fate has brought us together, why don’t we just sit together at one table so that it’s more lively? This Donglai Inn is really a little deserted and quiet.”
Yan Bang talked as if they were already old friends.
Chu Feng did not agree on his own accord. He recalled how Ji Rui and Xu Yi looked when they saw Weidai He. Perhaps they really had some connections in the past?
He shot a questioning look at Ji Rui, who quickly understood what he meant.
Ji Rui lowered her eyelashes gently. This was her agreement to Yan Bang’s request.
“Yes, we are indeed fated. Coincidentally, I also think that you are very interesting. Why don’t you come over and have lunch together with us?”
“Thank you for your appreciation, brother Chu Feng.”
Yan Bang smiled and came over with Weidai He to sit at their table.
“Brother Chu Feng, I find your names a little familiar. Since you’ve also come from afar, why not let me guess where you’re from?”
Yan Bang glanced at Ji Rui from the corner of his eye and smiled. “There’s also a woman called Ji Rui in the Dual Polarity Sect thousands of miles away. Have you heard of this person, brother Chu Feng?”
Chu Feng sipped his wine and said nothing.
It seemed that this couple were not simple characters as well.
Ji Rui, whose name was mentioned, already had a hint of vigilance in her eyes. She would notice immediately if the two people made any moves.
However, she had her cultivation and neither of them was her match.
But Chu Feng was just a mortal. If these two people suddenly attacked him, he would probably suffer. With their cultivation, it would not be difficult for them to turn him into a pile of ashes.
To be honest, my wife and the sect master of the Dual Polarity Sect happen to be the same
person.
Chu Feng blinked like a sly old fox.
Although he thought so, Chu Feng was not stupid enough to say it out loud.
“Brother, don’t you know that the Dual Polarity Sect you speak about is thousands of miles away from the Purgatory Sea? How can my wife be related to the sect master of the Dual Polarity Sect? Besides, as you know, we are just ordinary people with no cultivation.”
Chu Feng lied with a sincere expression, a sight which made Yan Bang’s lips twitch.
Ji Rui smiled slightly and seemed to be in a good mood.
“Ahem, it’s too rude of me. I hope brother Chu Feng doesn’t mind.”
Seeing Chu Feng deliberately denied any connection, Yan Bang knew that they were hiding their identities in this place.
However… they said that they were just ordinary people, who would believe such a clumsy lie?
Just now, before the two of them entered the Donglai Inn, they had already sensed an extremely powerful spiritual energy fluctuation. Thinking back to the guests from the second floor who looked like they were fleeing, it must have been these three people who had frightened them away with something they did!
After all, a few of these guests had already reached the cultivation of the Innate realm. It was impossible for them to be frightened off by a few ordinary people.
How could people with such strength be the ordinary people that Chu Feng referred to?
Furthermore, Ji Rui was extremely beautiful. In this lawless land, if she did not have absolute strength, she would have been defiled by robbers on her way to the city.
As for brother Chu Feng, given that his appearance was comparable to his own, he might also have been captured by a group of female bandits to become their husband!
Yan Bang smiled strangely, making Chu Feng feel uneasy.
With the air of making a casual remark, Ji Rui said, “I’ve once heard of an extremely mysterious sect in this world. All the clanspeople appear and disappear unpredictably and it did not have a fixed sect residence. But they’re very powerful and the cultivation level of any clansman who can appear in the outside world is no lower than a Martial Sage.”
“I also heard that this sect has used the surname Weidai for generations. Such a unique surname will also make it easier for the clanspeople to recognize one another…”
“What a coincidence that we met a woman with the surname Weidai today. I wonder if elder sis is related to the Weidai Sect?”
Weidai He looked at her meaningfully but said nothing
Weidai Sect?
Chu Feng seemed to have grasped something in his mind. He understood that Ji Rui was vaguely trying to explain the situation to him and now he also understood the issue of Weidai He’s identity.
All of this started in the month Chu Feng stayed in the Dual Polarity Sect.
Back when he had nothing to do, he had flipped through some historical books in the library of the Dual Polarity Sect. However, at that time, he only treated them as light reading
There were records of the Weidai Sect, the mysterious sect.
However, this sect did not belong to any territory in the Divine Continent because it did not establish a sect with an address. The Weidai Sect was more like an underground organization, but no one knew how the clanspeople in the sect contacted each other.
It wore a veil in front of the world, but what was certain was that there had been traces of this sect since tens of thousands of years ago. Moreover, every disciple from the Weidai Sect was a Martial Sage.
The cultivation level that was regarded as a high achievement in other sects was only considered an ordinary level at the Weidai Sect. Even so, they had never participated in any competition between sects. The clanspeople who appeared in the outside world were very low-key.
After completing their mission, the clanspeople of Weidai Sect disappeared without a trace. Many people had specially looked into investigating this sect, but they never found any clues.
Ji Rui’s level was at the Martial Sage realm and the strength she displayed was already a great shock for Chu Feng. If every person from the Weidai Sect was at this cultivation level, how terrifying was the origin of this sect!
After all, currently there were no more than 100 Martial Sage cultivators on the Divine Continent.
