The Feng Zun Journey
Tianmang Mountain
Emperor Long shook his head, he said with firm conviction that he would not let go of Long Qingyuan.
But then, his expression changed, and his face looked conflicted, “Daoist Dean, this should have been a personal matter, but since Yu Xiurong's subordinates have offended you, I should tell you the full story.”
Therefore, he started telling their story with Yu Xiurong and explained his grievances.
He could not hide the bitterness and sadness in his voice.
After hearing the full story, Feng Zun said, “When you and Yu Xiurong first met, did he already have the intention to deceive you?”
Emperor Long smiled bitterly, “Whether he intended to deceive me or not, it doesn't matter anymore.”
Feng Zun could not say anything more about this matter.
This was the family life of others, and he was an outsider. So that's not the place to comment.
Shortly after, Emperor Long said goodbye and left.
And Feng Zun? As night fell, he waited until Shuoxue and the others, who were walking around in the city.
When he returned, Shuoxue looked worried, “Sister Feng, in the city, everyone is talking about the top seven ancient factions. They said there's no way they're gonna let you go.”
“If they insist on throwing away his life, I will not mind using their lives to sharpen my sword.” said Feng Zun, he looks not the slightest bit worried.
He turned to Tianba and said, “Tianba, bring out the food and wine. Neither heaven nor earth is more important than feeding ourselves.”
He could see the food box Tianba was carrying, its alluring aroma had spread into the air.
“Mm!” Tianba laughed and agreed.
When Shuoxue saw this, she could only shake her head helplessly.
But it was no wonder, "Sister Feng indeed never cared about such a huge threat."
...
Meanwhile, in one of the pavilions of the Nine Furnace City, in a room illuminated by the light of a swaying candle.
Yu Xiurong was curled up on the soft sofa.
She looked calm, except for the look on her beautiful face, which turned erratic under the flickering light of the candle.
His slender eyebrows fused together, “So Feng Zun is completely unaffected by the Souls Sucking Technique of our race?”
Yu Huai said grimly, “It looks like so.”
“Auntie, I said it, right? When I saw Feng Zun in the Tang Dynasty, he easily neutralized my Corrosive Fragrant Bone.”
A young girl in a yellow dress, with beautiful snow-white skin said sharply.
This was none other than Ruo Yuan.
“That boy... doesn't seem simple..” murmured Yu Surong.
Keep in mind that, the Soul Sucking Technique and the Corrosive Fragrant Bone were the two strongest legacies of the Purple Moon Fox Race.
They could seize the hearts and souls of others slowly, place the enemy in helplessness, and finally fall into the palm of their hands.
Yu Xiurong had never heard of an immortal cultivator who was immune to both secret techniques!
Ruo Yuan's eyes sparkled, “Of course he wasn't simple, with his cultivation base being only at the intermediate stage Immortal level, he managed to kill Chu Yunling, defeating Guodong Feng, and finally killing him, and crossed the cultivation boundary to kill Guodong Lai and the six other intermediate and late stage Immortal existences."
Ruo Yuan was not at all stingy with his praise.
"So…?"
Yu Xiurong sighed, “It's a shame that Feng Zun is not the descendant of one of the peak-level factions of the Star Sky Realm. Otherwise, with his talent and cultivation, he truly deserves Qingyuan.”
Ruo Huan shook his head, “Aunt, my father said that when Cousin Qingyuan returns to the clan, she will be our next holy girl. That means he is destined not to be a Dao Partner for anyone.”
Yu Xiurong nodded, then took a deep breath.
His expression calmed down as usual, “When I got the chance, I myself will speak to Feng Zun. I hope he knows when to withdraw, and he is willing to sever any ties with Qingyuan completely!”
Not long ago she returned to Nine Furnace City, but she wondered, and she knew that her daughter had never shown any interest in men before.
But as if to him, Feng Zun was the only exception!
But if she became the holy maiden of the Purple Moon Fox, she could not get involved in the affairs of men and women, even the slightest bond was already too much!
Only then could he inherit the supreme legacy of the Purple Moon Fox Race!
“But Aunty, what if Feng Zun disagrees?” Ruo Yuan blinked his eyes.
After a moment of silence, Yu Xiurong said, “We must strive.”
Previously, he had also sent Ruo Yuan to Zhou Supreme to look for Feng Zun, his mission was to see what kind of person he was.
Feng Zun's return to the Nine Furnace City would actually save him from many of his previous problems.
Ruo Yuan continued with another question, “Then when do you plan to go to meet him?”
Yu Xiurong lifted his teacup and took a sip.
Only then did he say slowly, “There is no need to rush. Didn't everyone in the Nine Furnace City say that the seven ancient great factions wouldn't let go? Maybe soon he will get into big trouble.”
He put down his cup, and his eyes shone as he said casually, “If the time comes, we can send him a flint in the middle of a storm.”
...
The next morning.
Jiu Feng arrived riding a luxurious carriage, which carried Feng Zun to Tianmang Mountain.
The core of the Nine Furnace Great Formation array was located deep in the depths of the mountain, and there would always be leading experts from the imperial family guarding each of its territories.
When Feng Zun arrived, he found Emperor Long waiting for him there.
“Mean Daoist Feng, I must trouble you.” The Emperor smiled and greeted.
Feng Zun subtly leaned his head, then looked into the distance.
There was a huge cave that formed in Tianmang Mountain, which led to the heart of the mountain. Inside, molten lava fell down with blazing flames.
Seventy-two bronze pillars, each large enough to be embraced by an adult, stood within the blaze of hot lava.
Its entire surface was carved with strange and intricate talismans and dao runes.
A nine-foot-tall black ritual altar stood in the center, and it was connected to the Eight Trigrams Furnace that was entirely blue in color.
That furnace was the first thing that instantly caught Feng Zun's attention.
