She found out that Gu Liyue came here with the Leng family, and also knew the courtyard where she lived.

She was struggling and tormented in her heart, wanting to go see her, just take a look.

Forget it, for her safety, just disappear!

But at this moment she was like an ant on a hot pan.

With her cultivation level of the Great Perfection of Out-of-Body Realm, she could go and take a look secretly. As long as she didn't alert the big bosses in the mansion, she would definitely not be discovered!

At this time, Xiaolan walked into the room: "Miss, the master of the house wants to see you!"

Dongfeng Xiyue was startled because she was uneasy, and she quickly calmed herself down.

She thought back to her words and actions, wondering if she had revealed any flaws. She feigned composure and said, "Oh! Did you say anything?"

Xiaolan said, "I don't know."

In the master's study, the master of the Dongfeng family sat behind the desk, sorting out the express newspapers in his hands. He looked up at Dongfeng Xiyue who walked into the study. This daughter, whom he once was proud of, had a cold and icy appearance.

Over the years, she has lost her youthful and delicate nature, and seems to have acquired the temperament suitable for being a superior.

I don't know what she went through in those years. After returning to the Dongfeng family after being injured and poisoned, her cultivation level didn't decline much, but her progress was a little slow.

Now seeing that she was distracted a little, the head of the Dongfeng family was satisfied.

"Xiyue, you will be in charge of this recruitment! From now on, I will no longer restrict your freedom."

Dongfeng Xiyue knew full well that this was a conversation between the Patriarch and his subordinates. She straightened her face and replied respectfully, "As you command, Patriarch."

Dongfengjia thought of something and frowned. He actually hoped that Xiyue would be closer to him.

He remembered the flamboyant and bright Xiyue who always called him daddy and occasionally held his hand and acted coquettishly. Although he looked serious on the surface, he liked her in his heart.

Ever since she disappeared for a few years and returned after recuperating for over two years, she had been like this when she reappeared before him, as if she were treating him like a subordinate treating the master of the house. He wanted to be angry but couldn't. He didn't know how to deal with this subtle feeling.

Well, as long as her cultivation level improves, the Dongfeng family will become famous in the Cangwu world, just like it was back then.

"There's a rumor circulating that you should pay close attention to. It's about Suzaku coming back to retrieve his belongings when the Dongfeng family recruits new members. This family head is worried that someone is deliberately trying to cause trouble."

Dongfeng Xiyue listened quietly. She knew that the head of the Dongfeng family must have his plans.

"You can show up on the day of the recruitment. For the next two days, you can observe the development of the situation in secret. I will investigate in the open. Come see me when you have any new information."

He handed a token to Dongfeng Xiyue and said, "This token can mobilize a group of secret guards from Dongfeng Mansion. I give it to you. You can use them when you need them."

Xiyue looked at the token, which was made of black gold. The Dongfeng family logo was engraved below, and the word "An" was engraved on the back.

She was secretly surprised. This was the token that her eldest and second brothers had been fighting for, so why would the head of the family give it to her? She actually didn't want it. Having more power meant having to do more things, and those were not things she wanted to do!

She suppressed her inner surprise and lowered her head to accept it: "As you command, Patriarch."

The Dongfeng family head coughed and said, "Go see your mother when you have time. She's been missing you these past few days!"

Xiyue's eyes dimmed. As a mother, she should be able to understand her feelings. However, for some reason, Dongfeng Xiyue felt ashamed to face her. However, she still obediently agreed: "Okay, father."

She stepped back,

On the other side, Gu Liyue stayed quietly in the space, asking Xiaoxuan to pay attention to the situation outside the space, while she practiced hard in the space.

Bai Rui was also practicing in his own room and did not appear.

At this time, Xiao Xuan said, "Liyue, someone is coming, hiding their presence. Be careful."

Gu Liyue said: "Okay, I understand."

As she said that, she left the space and sat down in the room.

The person hiding outside the room was quietly observing the situation in the room, and seemed to have no intention of showing up.

"Sir, since you are here, why don't you show yourself and meet me?"

The visitor's body stiffened. He didn't expect that the little girl could actually notice his arrival.

He pushed open the door and walked in: "I heard from Xia Mu that the girl is very talented. I wonder if you would like to join the Dongfeng family!"

Gu Liyue was surprised that the person who came was not the one she thought of. She felt a little disappointed and a little relieved.

She suppressed her doubts and looked at the person who came, and found that he was the middle-aged man who met the Leng family at the gate of the mansion that day.

Xiao Xuan said: "The early stage of the out-of-body stage. To be more precise, I have just entered the out-of-body stage."

Gu Liyue asked, "I wonder what your name is?"

Dongfeng Linfeng said bluntly: "I am the second master of the Dongfeng family, Dongfeng Linfeng. I heard from my son Xia Mu that you are very talented and the Jindan thunder tribulation you attracted is comparable to that of the Yuanying. Our Dongfeng family needs geniuses like you."

Gu Liyue thought, this must be Dongfeng Xiamu's father, and he is here to recruit new disciples.

Now that she knew that her original body's mother was most likely the second daughter of the Dongfeng family, she actually didn't want to stay in the Dongfeng family for long.

"Second Master, you are too kind. Actually, I just came here with Miss Leng Liu to see the world and have no intention of entering the Dongfeng family."

Dongfeng Linfeng rolled his eyes. Does this person really not want to enter the Dongfeng family, or does he want to wait for a good price?

He smiled slightly and said, "It doesn't matter. If you are interested in the Dongfeng family, I will help you arrange a good position."

As he said that, he took out a box, placed it on the table, and pushed it over. "This is a gift for you."

This person is not as arrogant as Dongfeng Xiamu, and he knows how to respect others.

Gu Liyue looked at it and said, "I, the junior, will not accept any reward without any merit."

Dongfeng Linfeng couldn't help but admire her a little when he saw how she remained calm in the face of praise or criticism.

"Since I am a junior, I cannot refuse the gift given by the elders. Don't feel too burdened. I am leaving now."

After saying this, he glanced at Gu Liyue and left.

They came and went in a hurry, and it took only ten minutes. If it weren't for the box on the table, Gu Liyue would have been confused and wondered if someone had really been there.

Gu Liyue picked up the box and opened it. There was a bottle of medicine inside. She opened the bottle cap and the rich medicinal fragrance immediately wafted out. It should be a seventh-level medicine, the Marrow Cleansing Pill.

This pill cleanses the marrow and strengthens the bones, improving the cultivator's physique and allowing them to progress more smoothly and more easily reach a higher realm. It's usually taken when a cultivator is about to break through to a higher realm, increasing the chances of a breakthrough.

Dongfeng Linfeng was quite generous. If he didn't value her too much, or if his family was wealthy, perhaps the seventh-level elixir would not be a problem for the Dongfeng family.

Xiao Xuan reminded again: "There's another person coming. This one has a higher level of cultivation than the one just now."

Looking back at Gu Liyue as she meditated, she didn't plan to speak. She felt as if she was inviting people in. If they didn't want to see her, they didn't have to. But what was the point of these people just watching from the dark?!
