Emperor Long said in a mocking tone, "I don't know what they want from you, Fellow Daoist, but I know what exactly the Celestial Sword Mansion faction wants against our imperial family. They're just here to loot a burning house."
"Blooding a burning house?"
Feng Zun thought about it, then he immediately understood.
The top seven ancient factions had viewed the imperial family as prey. Sooner or later, they will fight.
What about the cultivators of the Sky Sword Mansion? Given the circumstances, it was impossible for them to remain silent and not flinch.
After all, the core region of the imperial family, Nine Furnace City and Tianmang Mountain, was the most flourishing urban and cultivation place in the entire Long Dynasty!
"So the Sky Sword Mansion is planning to get involved?" asked Feng Zun.
"Not completely" said the Emperor.
He continued, "They are unwilling to conflict with the leading ancient factions. They just took the opportunity to take some advantage, that's all."
"Do you agree with their wishes?" asked Feng Zun.
Emperor Long shook his head, "I don't approve of it."
"It was the right choice" Feng Zun said. "If you agree to their demands, it makes no difference to use firewood to put out fires, or to drink poison to get rid of thirst."
Emperor Long laughed bitterly and said, "Then, is Fellow Daoist willing to meet them?"
"I'm willing" said Feng Zun.
The Sky Sword Mansion faction was the one cultivating the Sword Dao cultivation, he was actually rather interested to see what they wanted to discuss with him.
Emperor Long's eyelids twitched, "Daoist Dean, if they are not here with bad intentions, please don't make trouble for them. After all, if you also offend a large faction like the Sky Sword Mansion Family then…"
Feng Zun cut out his words here, "Just relax, I'm not the type of person who likes to kill people recklessly, and cause trouble for no reason."
“…..”
Emperor Long did not say anything, but inwardly, he thought, What would Guan Shouyou, Liyan Yun, and other monsters in ancient times die in your hands if they heard about it?
The emperor took a moment to calm himself down, he said, "Then what if I arrange for them to visit you tonight?"
"No problem" said Feng Zun.
A penthouse in the City of Nine Furnaces.
"Ah Leng, what happened to you?"
Upon seeing Ah Leng return in a disheveled state and covered in blood and dust, Yu Xiurong was shocked.
Ah Leng's face looked grim as she told him all the things that had happened to her.
At the end of the story, he gritted his teeth, "If I don't worry about causing too much disturbance and endangering the lives of the imperial family, I will definitely teach that person a lesson!"
He looks very angry.
Yu Xiurong had already realized that even though Ah Leng currently had a pitiful appearance, she was actually unharmed.
Yu Xiurong immediately breathed a sigh of relief, then said gently, "Has your ability really been regressed? Or don't tell me that the imperial family has very powerful experts, who defend their strongholds?"
Yu Xiurong's beautiful eyes were sidetracked, "I heard lately, Feng Zun visits Tianmang Mountain once every three days. They said he was helping the imperial family to refine the Nine Furnace Great Formation, could that person be Feng Zun?"
Ah Leng froze, "He?"
But a moment later, he sneered and shook his head, "That's impossible!"
"Why is that impossible?" asked Yu Xiurong.
Ah Leng was instantly at a loss for words.
A moment later, he said, "Do you think I am no match for Feng Zun?"
Yu Xiurong shook his head, "You alone said that he had relied on the strength of the Nine Furnace Great Formation, to send you home in a miserable state and covered in dust. Moreover, if Feng Zun could refine his formation, it was not only natural that he could also control it."
Ah Leng's eyes twinkled, "How about we visit the boy?"
"We can go see him." said Yu Xiurong, "But you have to promise me something first."
Ah Leng seemed to be well aware of what she was going to say, and she did not even pause to think. "Sister Yu, rest assured. I won't do anything rash! After all there were already many people who wanted to kill the boy, so there was no need to add me to his list of assassins."
That was when Yu Xiurong finally nodded.
Qinglong Courtyard.
In the middle of spring, even the twilight light was extraordinarily colorful and brilliant.
Feng Zun languished beside the pool in his wicker chair.
Seven days forging his Innate Ultimate Weapon, Celestial Fantian, had put him in an excellent mood.
He even threw more moon shells at the spiritual goldfish than usual.
"Sister Feng, don't tell me the strange phenomenon that appeared on Tianmang Mountain today is your act?" Shuoxue asked curiously.
He squatted beside the bonfire, brewing tea for her. Her snow-white wrists looked smooth and beautiful.
"Mm." said Feng Zun. "But I just forged my Ultimate Sword, that's all. Oh yes, you will also soon challenge the intermediate stage Immortal Realm. If it's time to forge your Ultimate Weapon, I'll help you."
Shuoxue's eyes twinkled in excitement, "Then I should thank you in advance, Big Brother Feng."
Feng Zun laughed, "No problem."
Both Shuoxue and Ning Sih were already at the early stage Immortal Realm.
Not too long later they would welcome the tribulation and attempt to break through to the intermediate stage Immortal Realm.
Feng Zun could not help but remember Han Mei, who had left the Luo Mainland and continued her cultivation in one of the Realms in Wild Orion.
Given the foundation and talent he had, he might have already overcome the tribulation to become an Immortal sword cultivator.
A moment later, he recalled something, "Less than two months left until the start of the Radiant Age. When the time comes, heaven and earth will undergo an unprecedented massive change. I hope you can prove your JaLan Dao and enter the Intermediate Immortal stage."
Shuoxue did not even pause to think, "I will try and do as you say, Big Brother Feng!"
