Chapter 173 of Ten Scenes Satin

Since the Liu sisters wouldn't reveal the details, Wen Yuan had no choice but to accompany them to the capital to find Hu Yanfeng himself. The two sisters led Wen Yuan to a large mansion in the west of the city.

The mansion, with its vermilion gates and bronze rings, was grand and imposing, clearly the residence of a wealthy family. Wen Yuan was taken aback and said, "You and your entire Yunxiao Sect live here? Isn't that too ostentatious?" Liu Hanbi replied, "No, this is Senior Sister Bai's house." Liu Yunqing said, "Senior Sister Bai has such a big house, of course we live here. What's so ostentatious about it?" Wen Yuan was even more surprised and said: "Miss Bai Yueling's home? But your Yunxiao Sect is far away in Tianshan, while Miss Bai... her home is in the capital?"

Liu Hanbi said, "Yes, Senior Sister Bai's father is a senior of our Yunxiao Sect's Eastern Branch. He came from the Central Plains to become a disciple, so Senior Sister Bai's hometown is in the Central Plains, which is here." Liu Yunqing said, "Senior Sister Bai came to the Central Plains on her own before, just wanting to go home to visit. Who knew that she would be caught by those four inhuman beings on the way. By the way, Senior Sister Huyan said that those inhuman beings are all dead, is that true?" Wen Yuan smiled bitterly, "The four inhuman beings, right? They were indeed buried at sea."

As he spoke, a servant came out to open the door. The three of them stepped into the front yard of the mansion. Wen Yuan heard the melodious chirping of birds. Looking around at the flowers and trees, he saw many birds either perched or flying, chirping incessantly, which was very pleasant to hear. Three female disciples of the Yunxiao Sect were playing around in the courtyard. Upon seeing Wen Yuan, they suddenly fell silent, their expressions quite shy. They quickly hid to the side, but kept glancing sideways.

Following the servant to the main hall, a middle-aged man in fine clothes greeted them, cupping his hands and smiling, "This must be Young Hero Wen! A pleasure to meet you!" Wen Yuan returned the greeting, saying, "Junior Wen Yuan greets Senior.

May I ask your honorable name?" The middle-aged man replied, "My name is Bai Song." Liu Hanbi whispered in Wen Yuan's ear, "That's Senior Sister Bai's father."

Wen Yuan thought to himself, "Bai Song? Ah, yes, I've heard my senior brother mention a 'Cloud-Piercing Eagle'

Bai Song in the capital, a first-rate figure in martial arts and reputation. He's also a disciple of the Yunxiao Sect." He knew that the male disciples of the Yunxiao Sect belonged to the Eastern Branch, but the two branches had fought a bloody war in the past and were now irreconcilable enemies. Bai Song, a disciple of the Eastern Sect, had a daughter belonging to the Western Sect, a situation that puzzled Wen Yuan.

He was unaware that when Cheng Taihao led his followers to break with the Western Sect, not all Eastern Sect disciples supported him.

Many disciples from both sects had married, and even those who remained single might not necessarily intend to oppose the Western Sect.

Therefore, only a few disciples, such as Sikong Ba and Di Jiucang, actually followed Cheng Taihao. Their superior martial arts skills overwhelmed the opposing Eastern Sect members, who either died in battle or surrendered to Cheng Taihao. At the time of the incident, Bai Song had just returned to the capital with his daughter, avoiding the chaos. Afterwards, Bai Yueling insisted on returning to Tianshan to reunite with her Western Sect fellow disciples. Dissatisfied with Cheng Taihao's actions, Bai Song agreed, staying in the capital and ceasing all contact with the Eastern Sect.

After the three met with Bai Song, the Liu sisters took Wen Yuan to find Huyan Feng. Before Wen Yuan could voice his questions, the Liu sisters had already answered them one after another, explaining everything clearly by the time they reached Hu Yanfeng's door.

Liu Hanbi knocked on the door and called out, "Senior Sister Hu Yanfeng, we're coming in." Hu Yanfeng's voice came from behind the door, saying, "Come in." Liu Yunqing pushed the door open and saw Hu Yanfeng sitting alone at the round table in the room, resting her chin on her hand, gazing out the window in a daze, not even glancing at the doorway, her golden cloak shimmering. The Liu sisters stood on either side, pulling Wen Yuan in. Liu Yunqing then laughed, "Senior Sister Huyan, look who we brought!"

Huyan Feng turned her head absentmindedly and asked, "Who?" Upon turning her head and seeing Wen Yuan, her face suddenly showed surprise. She jumped back abruptly and exclaimed, "Wen Yuan? You... how could you..." Wen Yuan bowed and smiled, "Miss Huyan, it's been a long time. How have you been?"

Huyan Feng stared blankly at the three of them, a blush slowly spreading across her face, but she didn't say a word. Liu Yunqing said happily, "Senior Sister, how was it? We told you we'd find him, right?" Liu Hanbi said, "It took a lot of effort. But, Senior Sister, you can finally say what you wanted to say to Young Master Wen now." Liu Yunqing said, "Right, Senior Sister, can we listen in?" Liu Hanbi nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, we've been working so hard for so many days, let us hear a little bit, please." Liu Yunqing said, "Exactly... Senior Sister, please say something!" The two of them fell silent at the same time, looking at Huyan Feng.

Listening to the two sisters' back-and-forth banter, Hu Yanfeng's face grew increasingly red, her body trembling slightly, looking flustered. Upon hearing their words, she suddenly slammed her hand on the table and roared, "Stupid girls! Who...who told you to go find him?" Liu Hanbi said, "Oh, Senior Sister, it was you." Liu Yunqing said, "Because you said you wanted to find Young Master Wen, that's why we've been going out to look for him every day!"

Hu Yanfeng's face flushed crimson as she yelled, "Nonsense! Did I tell you to go find him? Get out! Go back to your rooms!" Before the sisters could reply, she rushed forward, shoved them out the door, and slammed it shut. Liu Hanbi and Liu Yunqing exchanged bewildered glances outside, shaking their heads simultaneously, completely baffled.

Wen Yuan, still inside, witnessed everything, and was even more confused. As soon as Hu Yanfeng closed the door, she turned around, lowered her head, but kept her eyes fixed on Wen Yuan, remaining silent.

Wen Yuan felt quite embarrassed. He cupped his hands and said, "Miss Huyan, farewell." He then walked towards the door.

Huyan Feng blocked his way and said, "Wait, where are you going?" Wen Yuan said, "Since you didn't come looking for me, this uninvited guest should take his leave." Huyan Feng said, "Who said I didn't want to see you?" Wen Yuan was taken aback and said, "You're the one who just said that." Huyan Feng turned her head, her face still slightly flushed, and said, "I did have something to discuss with you, but I didn't ask Junior Sister Liu and the others to go find you. Is that not allowed?"

Upon hearing this, Wen Yuan couldn't help but smile bitterly to himself, thinking, "This is simply sophistry." He clapped his hands and said, "Alright, since I'm already here, Miss Huyan, please speak freely."

Huyan Feng turned her head back, bowed slightly, waved her hand, and said, "Please sit." Wen Yuan was surprised and thought, "It's rare to see Miss Huyan being so polite." However, he naturally didn't say this aloud and took a seat as a guest.

Hu Yanfeng sat down, picked up the teapot, and poured two teacups, but remained silent.

Wen Yuan, noticing her unusual demeanor, was puzzled. He took a sip of tea, waiting for her to speak.

Hu Yanfeng kept her head down, remaining silent for a long while before softly saying, "Young Master Wen, I'm sorry."

Wen Yuan was startled again, asking, "Why do you say that, Miss?"

Hu Yanfeng, still with her head lowered, turned her gaze away and said, "I...I used to often scold you, pointing out your faults. You must be very angry..." Wen Yuan said, "No, I'm not." Hu Yanfeng raised her head, her expression slightly surprised, and said, "You're not angry?" Wen Yuan said, "Confucius said, 'Respectfulness prevents disgrace, generosity wins the hearts of the people.' When someone scolds you, regardless of right or wrong, you must first examine yourself. If you're right, then you must correct it; if you're wrong, then..." "Why be angry?" She smiled slightly and said, "That's true, but I still sometimes care. My self-cultivation is still lacking."

Hu Yanfeng looked at Wen Yuan quietly, then lowered her head and said, "It's good that you're not angry. I have a bad temper, and I might offend you more in the future. I hope you... you won't take offense." Wen Yuan felt a little strange hearing her tone and said, "What do you mean?"

Hu Yanfeng stood up, walked to the bedside, and picked up a dark object, saying, "This is the token of the Eastern Sect Leader of our sect, called 'Heavenly Net Cloud Shadow.' You've seen Cheng Taihao use it." Wen Yuan said, "Yes, I have seen it. Its power is truly astonishing." Hu Yanfeng nodded slightly and said softly, "You... you can... accept it?"

Wen Yuan was startled and said, "Accept it? But isn't this a treasure of your Yunxiao Sect?"

Hu Yanfeng nodded again and said softly, "Yes, only the leader of the Eastern Sect is qualified to use it to perform martial arts." As she said this, her fair face flushed red again, and she silently lowered her head. Seeing her hesitant expression several times today, Wen Yuan was even more confused and said, "Miss Hu Yanfeng, what... what's going on?"

Hu Yanfeng looked up at Wen Yuan, bit her lower lip lightly, as if she had made up her mind, and said, "I hope... I request you... I request you to become the leader of the Eastern Sect. The seventh leader of the Yunxiao Sect's Eastern Sect." After she finished speaking, her face was completely red, as if she had said something extremely embarrassing.

Upon hearing this, Wen Yuan was greatly surprised and quickly waved his hand, saying, "Miss Huyan, you must be joking..."

Huyan Feng hurriedly said, "Who's joking? I...I..." She paused, slowly lowered her head, and softly said, "I'm very serious. Please...become the leader of the Eastern Sect."

This matter was too strange for Wen Yuan to understand. He said, "I'm not even a member of the Yunxiao Sect. How can I become the leader of the Eastern Sect?" Huyan Feng's body trembled slightly, and she said: "You...you won't agree?" Wen Yuan said, "I have absolutely no reason to take over the Eastern Sect, how can I agree? If you want to revitalize the East and West Sects of the Cloud Cloud Sect, you should choose the leader from among the disciples of the Eastern Sect, like someone of the generation of Senior Bai Song."

Hu Yanfeng's voice rose slightly as she said, "What does it matter if they're not disciples of our sect? I won't let anyone else be the leader of the Eastern Sect except you." Wen Yuan shook his head and said, "This is unreasonable." Hu Yanfeng exclaimed, "What's unreasonable about it?" Wen Yuan said, "What reason is there that I must be the leader of the Eastern Sect?" Hu Yanfeng was eager to speak again, but for a moment she was speechless, her lips moved slightly, but she couldn't utter a word.

The two stared at each other for a long time, then Hu Yanfeng suddenly became angry, slammed her hand on the table and stood up, shouting, "Fine, if you won't agree, then forget it!" She turned and rushed towards the door, and as soon as she opened it, Qin Panying was standing outside. Qin Panying was startled when she saw her agitated expression and said, "Senior Sister..." Hu Yanfeng angrily said, "Get out of the way!" She pushed her aside and ran out.

The situation suddenly changed, and Wen Yuan was greatly taken aback, thinking, "Why is Miss Huyan so angry when we were talking so peacefully?" Qin Panying entered the room and said, "Young Master Wen, what... what happened? I heard from Junior Sister Liu and the others that you had come, and I wanted to come and see you, but... how could this be?"

Wen Yuan sighed and said, "I also find it inexplicable. Miss Huyan said she wanted me to be the head of your sect's Eastern Branch, and when I asked her why, she got angry." Qin Panying was startled and said, "Ah, is that what happened?" Wen Yuan said, "Miss Qin already knows?" Qin Panying said, "Of course I know. It was a decision made by my senior sister and me. Young Master Wen, you... you..." "You rejected Senior Sister?" Wen Yuan said, "This is absurd. I could never agree to it."

Qin Panying stamped her foot lightly and sighed, "Alas, I should have come sooner. Senior Sister... she's just so impatient, it's hard to explain. Young Master Wen, Senior Sister's request for you to be... to be the leader of the Eastern Sect has ulterior motives." Wen Yuan asked, "What ulterior motives?" Qin Panying said, "As you know, our sect was founded in Tianshan. What is our headquarters called?"

Wen Yuan said, "Hmm, I've often heard you mention it. It's called the Biyi Palace..."

As soon as he uttered the words "Biyi," Wen Yuan's mind suddenly jolted, and he suddenly understood something, standing there dumbfounded. Qin Panying whispered, "Do you understand?" Wen Yuan was taken aback and said, "Miss Huyan, she, she... she... she..." He shook his head vigorously and said, "That's impossible, isn't it? Doesn't she hate men?

She even tried to kill me when we first met." Qin Panying smiled and said, "Yes. But, wouldn't it be good if Senior Sister could like men?"

Seeing the slight bitterness in her smile, Wen Yuan immediately remembered the unusual intimacy between the two of them and blurted out, "But in that case, Miss Qin, you..." As soon as he said it, Wen Yuan immediately regretted it and quickly covered his mouth, secretly annoyed: "I spoke too much, this is bad." Qin

Panying blushed slightly and said softly, "You ..." "You know? It was...it was Miss Hua and the others who said it, wasn't

it?" Wen Yuan stammered, "Well, not really..."

Qin Panying sighed softly and said, "Don't talk about this anymore. Go and chase after Senior Sister. Although she's easily angered, she calms down quickly. It's just that she's proud and finds it hard to clean up the mess. Talk to her nicely, and she'll definitely tell you the whole story clearly. After all, you are..." She then smiled and said, "At least Senior Sister doesn't dislike you too much anymore. Go and talk to her."

Although Wen Yuan felt awkward, he wanted to figure out what Hu Yanfeng was thinking, so he nodded and said, "That's the way to do it."

He walked out of the room, turned into the corridor, and saw the Liu sisters coming towards him. Liu Yunqing called out, "Young Master Wen, what were you talking about with Senior Sister Huyan?" Wen Yuan replied

, "Let's not talk about that now. Have you seen Miss Huyan?" Liu Hanbi said, "Senior Sister Huyan just ran out." Wen Yuan asked, "Where did she go?" Liu Yunqing said, "We don't know. Hanbi and I wanted to ask, but she ignored us completely. We chased after her, but she ran so fast that she disappeared around the corner. We don't know where she went."

Wen Yuan secretly groaned, thinking, "Miss Huyan didn't need to run so fast. With the lightness skills of the Yunxiao Sect, she's probably far away by now." He then left the Bai residence and turned a corner as Liu Yunqing had instructed, but Huyan Feng was nowhere to be seen. He looked around and saw a three-story restaurant. On a sudden inspiration, he gathered his strength and leaped, vaulting over three eaves to reach the rooftop and gaze into the distance.

He looked westward; the setting sun was blood red, and the streets were bustling with people, but nothing seemed out of the ordinary. Turning north, he saw a golden light flashing in and out of sight in an alley, but it had stopped moving. Wen Yuan recognized the location, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "As expected of the Golden-Winged Phoenix, it has run really far in just a short while." He leaped off the roof and weaved through the alleys, chasing after it. The guests in the building were dumbfounded and astonished to see a figure moving up and down outside.

Wen Yuan ran to the alley and saw that the surrounding houses were empty and dilapidated, just a few abandoned buildings. Hu Yanfeng was leaning against the wall. When she saw Wen Yuan coming, she didn't say anything, only her chest heaved slightly, as if she hadn't caught her breath from running so fast.

Wen Yuan stepped forward and said, "Miss Huyan!" Huyan Feng turned her head away and coldly said, "What?" Wen Yuan bowed and said, "Miss Qin said something to me. I didn't understand your meaning before. If I offended you, please forgive me." Huyan Feng's body trembled, and her stiff shoulders suddenly went limp. She turned to look at Wen Yuan.

Wen Yuan said, "Miss Huyan, may you continue what you were saying?" Huyan Feng looked at him, paused for a moment, nodded, and said softly, "I... I was too hasty. I should have finished. If... you want to hear it." Wen Yuan smiled and said, "I'm all ears." Huyan

Feng looked around and said, "There's no one else here. Shall I say it here?" Wen Yuan said, "It doesn't matter where you say it. It depends on Miss Huyan's wishes." Huyan Feng lowered her head slightly. She said, "My original surname isn't Huyan, you don't need to call me that anymore." Wen Yuan was taken aback and said, "Really?" Huyan Feng said, "My original surname is 'Han.' The compound surname 'Huyan' is a false surname I used to avoid persecution... it's derived from the first and last sounds of 'Han.'"

Wen Yuan said, "So, you're not called Huyan Feng anymore, but Han Feng?" Huyan Feng said softly, "Yes, that's my real name. I haven't used it since I was four. I can use it again starting today."

Wen Yuan murmured, "Han Feng, Han Feng." He smiled slightly and said, "I have a senior uncle and a senior brother with the surname Han, and today I have another one."

Han Feng said, "There are quite a few people with the surname Han, aren't there? But the one I'm looking for just can't find him." She looked up at the sky, seemingly lost in thought, and said, "Wen Yuan, I want to ask you to be the leader of the Eastern Sect. There's a reason for this; I want you to take care of my junior sisters. Although the Eastern and Western Sects are different, we are still fellow disciples, and the leader's authority remains." Wen Yuan was taken aback and said, "You want me to take care of them…why?"

Han Feng said, "I came to the Central Plains to rescue Junior Sister Bai and deal with Cheng Taihao; those are official matters of our Yunxiao Sect.

But besides that, I have my own private matter—I need to find someone with the surname Han." She paused, then added, "It's my father. This matter might be very dangerous, and I don't want to involve my junior sisters in my help. I must act alone, so I need someone to take care of them."

Wen Yuan asked, "What danger is there in your search for your father?" Han Feng was silent for a moment, then said, "My father…his martial arts are very powerful; that's what my master said before he passed away." Wen Yuan said: "Hmm, so what?"

Han Feng looked into Wen Yuan's eyes and said, "When I was four years old, he tried to kill me and my mother. He killed my mother, and now I've returned to the Central Plains to find him." Upon hearing this, Wen Yuan was shocked and thought to himself, "What kind of person is so ruthless as to have the heart to kill his own wife and daughter?"
