Being scolded by Feng Qingwu, Tian Hongyu, who was temporarily overwhelmed by anger, completely sobered up and even felt cold to the core.
yes……
As the inner disciples of Danfeng said, he is just a mediocre outer disciple, so why does he think he can make waves in the sect?
After thinking about this clearly, Tian Hongyu became visibly emo.
A strong, decadent aura was exuding all around him involuntarily.
He looked like he had lost half of his life. He stumbled back a few steps and sat down on the ground, his face pale and bloodless.
Seeing the restriction that was right beside him, only half an arm's length away, Tian Hongyu couldn't help but smile bitterly, lowered his eyes and said, "Yes, Senior Sister is right..."
"Who am I, worthy of the sect raising an army for me?"
"Maybe this is what I will do in my life. Before I became a monk, I at least once imagined that I could soar into the sky just like a dragon entering the sea or a fish leaping over the dragon's gate. I would be different from others."
"But now it seems..."
When he said this, the corners of Tian Hongyu's mouth twitched, and there was an uncontrollable bitterness in his words.
"I am just a mediocre person. Without the Foundation Establishment Pill, it is impossible for me to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage."
"I will always be just an outer disciple of Tianxuan Sect. How is it different from those handymen? In the end, I will just die on the way to complete the mission..."
Listening to Tian Hongyu's continuous thoughts, Feng Qingwu couldn't help but frown.
She had also been decadent, but at least - the desperate situation she had faced was far more painful and desperate than Tian Hongyu's, and she couldn't see the future.
However, Feng Qingwu did not intend to take revenge on a mere outer disciple.
But if she were to put aside her past grudges and speak out to comfort her, it would be too difficult for her. The ability to stand up just now was already her limit.
Therefore, facing Tian Hongyu's loneliness, Feng Qingwu did not feel relieved. Instead, he changed the topic and interrupted his emo: "I have a question to ask you."
Tian Hongyu, who was sinking into self-pity: "Alas..."
"Tian Hongyu, are you listening?"
Tian Hongyu continued to despise himself: "Alas..."
Seeing this, Feng Qingwu's fake smile mask that he had maintained all this time became a little unbearable.
She took a deep breath and continued to smile, but her slender hands went to her waist: "I said, answer my question first."
'Ding--'
Tian Hongyu, who had been trapped in his own emotions and couldn't get out for a long time, noticed the crisp sound of the sword being unsheathed.
He finally raised his head and was almost blinded by the shining blade when the Liufeng Sword was slightly unsheathed.
For a moment, Tian Hongyu was so frightened that he hurriedly backed away, but Feng Qingwu’s smiling voice came again——
"If you retreat any further, the restriction will be triggered."
"?!"
Tian Hongyu was shocked and froze on the spot, at a loss.
After calming Tian Hongyu, Feng Qingwu sheathed the Liufeng Sword, squatted down in front of him, smiled gently and narrowed his eyes: "Don't be afraid, I won't do anything to you, I'm just asking a question. "
"Big, big, big—senior sister, you ask."
Tian Hongyu trembled and asked cautiously.
Looking at his appearance, it was as if he was afraid that Feng Qingwu would eat him alive, and his voice was trembling uncontrollably and full of caution.
Then Feng Qingwu said: "I want to ask, Tian Hongyu, what happened this time when you asked Danfeng to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill?"
At this time, Feng Qingwu asked in a serious tone.
Although Feng Qingwu had already obtained some information from other disciples in front of Zhenbao Tower, after all, that disciple was probably just hearing about it, and the details would depend on the person involved.
After hearing Feng Qingwu's words, Tian Hongyu's expression became obviously ugly. He didn't expect Feng Qingwu to poke his wound so bluntly and interrupt his emo.
But after noticing the Liufeng Sword and Feng Qingwu's "friendly" smile, the corners of Tian Hongyu's mouth twitched before he opened his mouth to explain.
"Actually, Zhenbaolou and Danfeng already have remaining foundation-building pills, but they never exchange them for us. They are used to refine them for external use."
"But actually, I want to receive contribution points, and I also want Foundation Establishment Grass to make up for the gap in Foundation Establishment Pills. This has long been spread among our outer disciples."
Tian Hongyu paused: "However, the situation in the past was a little better. Although we would be exploited layer by layer, at least in the end, we would still be given some."
"But I don't know what's going on recently. Basically, the outer disciples haven't been able to get anything they want to exchange. Even the inner disciples have only been given seven or eighty-eight dollars..."
Hearing this, Feng Qingwu couldn't help but frown, with a vague premonition in her heart.
But after being silent for a moment, she still asked: "In that case, why do you continue to exchange it at Danfeng?"
Hearing this, Tian Hongyu's bitter smile became more obvious: "Sister, there is nothing we can do about this. After all, many elixirs are necessary for cultivation, but Danfeng is a complete monopoly."
"Under such circumstances, even if they squeeze us too much, we can only choose to go to Dan Peak to exchange for the elixirs we need, so they actually have nothing to fear."
"...This will indeed be their style."
Feng Qingwu lowered his eyes and suppressed the cold mocking look in his eyes.
But when she raised her head again, she asked seriously: "Tian Hongyu, do you still want to break through the foundation building stage?"
Tian Hongyu shook his head and said: "Senior Sister, of course I want to, but in terms of talent, I can't compare to you at all, not even to those inner disciples. How can I make a breakthrough without the Foundation Establishment Pill?"
"Do you outer disciples have a big demand for Foundation Establishment Pills?"
Feng Qingwu's topic changed so quickly that Tian Hongyu didn't even react for a while, but he still nodded blankly.
He explained: "Most of the outer disciples have average talents and do not have the confidence to break through the foundation building stage and condense the Dao foundation. Therefore, anyone who wants to break through is trying to find a way to get the foundation building pill."
After listening to Tian Hongyu's words, Feng Qingwu thought about it until a moment later——
"Tian Hongyu, do you want the Foundation Building Pill? I have a way."
Tian Hongyu, who was shocked over and over again, could not help but widen his eyes at this moment: "Ah? Senior sister, what did you say?"
