The Feng Zun Journey
Guodong Lai's
Grand Elder!
When Guodong Feng saw the yellow-robed elder leading the group, his pupils constricted, and he seemed to realize something.
The yellow-robed old man was named Guodong Lai. And he was a Supreme Elder of the Guodong Family, a figure with a high level of authority within their clan.
The other six people who were with him were all also prominent clan members.
When the group arrived at the scene of the battle and saw Guodong Feng's disheveled and bloodied condition, they were all stunned.
“ Feng'er, you... Did you really lose?” guodong Lai.
As he spoke, he and his friends surveyed the area, and all of them looked towards Feng Zun.
When they saw that Feng Zun did not have a single strand of hair coming out of his place, their expressions darkened, and it seemed like they had already gotten some clues from it.
Guodong Feng said calmly, “In the Grand Dao competition, victory and defeat are common. I just don't know what purpose you came here for?”
Guodong Lai calmed himself down, there was a conflicted expression on his face, “The head of the family was worried that something unexpected would happen to you, so he sent us here. I never expected it, but something unexpected turned out to actually happen.”.
The other Guodong Family elders also looked worried and unsure.
They never even imagined that this duel would end with this result.
After all, Guodong Feng was ranked seventh in the Star Ranking Rank, a major figure in their entire younger generation. How could he possibly lose to just a person like Feng Zun?
However, Feng Zun found all of this extremely boring.
He faced the Divine Sword Palace Mountain and called Shuoxue, "Shuoxue, let's go."
These words of Feng Zun left everyone present flabbergasted.
Don't tell me that Feng Zun really didn't realize it?
The moment Guodong Lai and the others arrived, the situation would obviously change. How could he just leave here?
"You want to go? Never think about it!” Guodong Lai scowled and said coldly.
Swoshis!
The mix of Six intermediate and late stage Immortal cultivators accompanying him all locked onto Feng Zun, their expressions completely unfriendly.
The atmosphere instantly turned gripping and oppressive.
It was obvious that the old men would not let this pass.
Shuoxue's heart stiffened, and her delicate brows furrowed in worry.
However, he still chose to go with Feng Zun, regardless of any consequences.
“Sister Feng, can I take Master Haoran and Tianba with me?” ask Shuoxue.
“Of course.” Feng Zun agreed with a smile.
As they spoke, they completely ignored and regarded Guodong Hai and his entire group as nothing.
Their expressions gradually grew darker in response.
“Yuan Jiuzhen, is that a disciple of your Divine Sword Palace?” Guodong Lai said seriously.
Yuan Jiuzhen's heart trembled, and he said hurriedly, “In truth.”
His voice shook the sky.
In the entire Divine Sword Palace, everyone's expressions changed.
Yuan Jiuzhen's expression froze, and his heart was in turmoil.
He felt trapped by the situation. Despite his high position as the leader of the Divine Sword Palace, he felt a sense of sadness and frustration that he had never felt before.
If he were to disobey, he would definitely offend the Guodong Family. But if he complied, he would offend Feng Zun irrevocably.
He could not retreat or advance!
When Feng Zun saw this, he could not help his frown.
However, before he could say anything, Guodong Feng said grimly, “Great Elders, what happened here today has nothing to do with Divine Sword Palace!”
The leader of the younger generation of the Guodong Family is obviously furious, “In addition, I already said before our duel started that no matter who wins, Feng Zun's enmity with the Guodong Family will end here!"
“Even if I take revenge in the future, I will do it in my own name, and challenge Feng Zun openly. I will not involve the clan in any way. If you do this act, doesn't that mean I retract my words?”
His voice echoed throughout heaven and earth.
The crowd seemed moved.
Who would have thought that the first person to voice his rejection of Guodong Lai's orders was actually Guodong Feng?
Even Feng Zun was unwillingly looking towards Guodong Feng for the second time.
Guodong Lai and the others were slightly astonished.
“Feng'er, that's your nature and weakness. We naturally understand where you come from.” Guodong Lai said indifferently.
He continued, “However, you are still too young. How can you play around when it comes to the grudges of the entire clan? Don't forget, Feng Zun has killed your brother! He is an inexcusable enemy of the Guodong Family, and we must see him killed. How can you worry about a promise when dealing with someone so despicable?”
He stopped, then turned his cold gaze to Shuoxue, Daoist Haoran, and Tianba. “And for the three of them! They were members of the Divine Sword Palace, yet they colluded with enemies like Feng Zun? They must be severely punished to warn others not to follow their example!"
"That's right!"
"That's what we're supposed to do!”
The other Guodong Family higher-ups voiced their agreement, one after another.
The spectators felt a chill in their hearts.
Who did not realize that Guodong Lai was determined to exterminate Feng Zun?
Guodong Feng's face was deathly pale as it showed a rare anger. “Great Chief, you..!”.
Guodong Lai let out a long sigh and cut him off, “Feng'er, you are a good boy, but you are too focused on the sword, so you do not understand worldly affairs. You may feel sad and may not understand. After we kill Feng Zun, I will apologize to you personally.”
Guodong Feng was so angry that he laughed.
He suddenly took a deep breath, then said firmly, “I said, someday, I will avenge my own sister. If you make me retract my words today, when I become the leader of our family, I will definitely rid the clan of people like you all!”
He spoke with conviction.
The higher-ups of the Guodong Family frowned.
“Son, you may have impressive achievements in the Sword Dao, but you are still too young and immature.” said Guodong Lai.
