"I'm telling you, Old White Bird, stop dreaming. Ye Feng is the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's treasure now. You want to snatch him back? Keep dreaming." Titan looked at Bai He teasingly from the side.
He was really looking forward to seeing Old White Bird's expression once he learned of Ye Feng's talent.
"What do you mean? Could it be that Ye Feng awakened his father's Martial Soul?" Bai He froze for a moment, then suddenly understood.
Since Ye Feng was the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's treasure, it proved that his talent was exceptional. And Ye Feng's mother's Martial Soul had undergone a malignant mutation. If Ye Feng's Martial Soul had come from his mother, he would not have become the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's treasure.
"Actually, Ye Feng's awakened Martial Soul did not come from his father."
"Ye Feng, release your Martial Soul and let Clan Head Bai He have a look." Ning Fengzhi smiled at Ye Feng.
"Yes!"
Ye Feng answered, and with a thought, instantly used Martial Soul Possession, revealing the Sharp-tailed Swallow.
"It's actually a Sharp-tailed Swallow!!"
Bai He stared at Ye Feng in surprise. He had not expected Ye Feng's Martial Soul to be the inherited Martial Soul of the Speed Clan.
"Hehe, Brother Ye Feng is a genius with Innate Full Soul Power. He's already Level 15 now." Ning Rongrong lifted her chin and proudly showed off how amazing Ye Feng was.
"Innate Full Soul Power!!"
This time, Bai He was completely stunned. At the same time, he understood why Titan had called Ye Feng the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's treasure.
Forget the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect—even if it were him, he would definitely treasure Ye Feng like a precious gem.
"Clan Head Bai He, there are reasons we brought Ye Feng back this time. First, it is to acknowledge his kin. After all, Clan Head Bai He's family has Ye Feng's relatives. That bond cannot be severed."
"Second, it is for the sake of his Martial Soul. The Sharp-tailed Swallow is your family's inherited Martial Soul. When it comes to research on the Sharp-tailed Swallow, no one knows more than you."
"Ye Feng's talent is excellent, and I do not wish to bury it. Therefore, I would like to draw upon the Speed Clan's Spirit Ring Configuration for a Martial Soul like the Sharp-tailed Swallow."
Ning Fengzhi looked at Bai He sincerely. This was indeed his primary reason for coming to the Speed Clan.
As for winning over the Speed Clan, that was only a secondary goal. If it worked out, then it worked out; if not, he would not be disappointed.
"Haha, of course. Ye Feng is a member of my Speed Clan. Naturally, I will not be stingy. Rest assured, Sect Master Ning—the inheritance of my Speed Clan will be open to Ye Feng at any time."
Seeing how forthright Ning Fengzhi was, Bai He was not a petty man either. Though he could not bring Ye Feng back into the family, he was still willing to offer the greatest possible help to such a genius.
"Then I must thank Clan Head Bai He." Ning Fengzhi clasped his hands and thanked Bai He.
"You are too polite, Sect Master Ning. I will have to trouble you to take good care of Ye Feng in the future." Bai He knew that, with Ye Feng's talent, Ning Fengzhi would certainly be unwilling to let him go.
If it had been someone else, he could have forcibly kept Ye Feng behind. But when facing the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, one of the Upper Three Sects, he did not have that confidence.
So he could only settle for the next best thing and painfully give up on Ye Feng.
"Please rest assured, Clan Head Bai He. Ye Feng is my disciple. I will never allow him to suffer any injustice." Ning Fengzhi gave his solemn assurance.
Now that everything had been laid out in the open.
Bai He, Ning Fengzhi, Titan, and the others quickly began chatting happily, and the atmosphere instantly turned harmonious.
Just then, a cute little head suddenly peeked in from outside the VIP room's door.
The moment it saw Ye Feng looking over, the little head hurriedly ducked back out of sight.
Not long after, that little head cautiously poked out again.
Finding it amusing, Ye Feng suddenly made a face at her.
"Ah!"
The little girl was startled. She accidentally fell to the ground and rolled in through the doorway.
"Xiangxiang, what are you doing? Hurry up and come in." Hearing the commotion, Bai He's eyes flashed with affection as he beckoned to the little girl.
"Grandpa!" The little girl scrambled up from the floor, then ran over to Bai He and shyly threw herself into his arms.
Hearing how Bai He addressed her, Ye Feng instantly understood the little girl's identity. This girl, who was about his age, was probably Bai Chenxiang.
"Haha, this is my granddaughter. Her name is Bai Chenxiang. Please forgive the spectacle." Bai He patted Bai Chenxiang's head as he introduced her to Ning Fengzhi.
"What a cute little girl. Mm, just as cute as Rongrong." Ning Fengzhi's survival instincts were strong. Seeing Ning Rongrong pout, he hurriedly added that last sentence.
"Xiangxiang, this is your cousin Ye Feng. Hurry and greet him." Bai He pointed at Ye Feng and spoke to Bai Chenxiang.
"Cousin Ye Feng!" Bai Chenxiang obediently called out, then hid herself in Bai He's arms again.
"Hello, Cousin Xiangxiang." Seeing how adorable Bai Chenxiang was, Ye Feng gave her a friendly nod.
"Haha, Xiangxiang, take your brother and sister outside to play. Remember not to go too far." Perhaps worried that Ye Feng and Ning Rongrong would be bored here, Bai He gave Bai Chenxiang a task.
"Okay, Grandpa." At the mention of playing, Bai Chenxiang forgot all about being shy. She nodded repeatedly while looking expectantly at Ye Feng and Ning Rongrong.
"Go on." Seeing Ning Rongrong was eager to go, Ning Fengzhi smiled and nodded as well.
Thus, while the adults chatted in the VIP room, Ye Feng was treated like a child and sent out to play.
Once outside, before Ye Feng could even see what was happening, the two little girls had already gathered together and begun chattering away.
They were so close that Ye Feng even suspected they had known each other for a long time.
"Cousin Ye Feng, is your Martial Soul also a Sharp-tailed Swallow?" After chatting for a while, Bai Chenxiang turned to ask the daydreaming Ye Feng.
"Yeah. Could it be that Cousin Xiangxiang has awakened one too?" Ye Feng asked curiously.
"Mm, I only awakened a few days ago. Look." As she spoke, Bai Chenxiang released her Martial Soul and activated Martial Soul Possession.
Bai Chenxiang looked much like Ye Feng when she activated Martial Soul Possession. However, Ye Feng's Martial Soul feathers were silvery white, while Bai Chenxiang's were pure white.
"Xiangxiang, what level was your Innate Soul Power?" Ye Feng had grown curious about Bai Chenxiang's talent.
"My Innate Soul Power was Level 6 when I awakened. Grandpa said my talent is quite good!" Bai Chenxiang said, lifting her little face proudly.
"Uh, Innate Level 6 Spirit Power really is quite good." Ye Feng looked at Bai Chenxiang awkwardly while secretly giving Ning Rongrong a look, telling her not to reveal their own Innate Soul Power levels.
Thanks to their long-standing tacit understanding, Ning Rongrong understood Ye Feng's glance. She hurriedly pulled Bai Chenxiang aside and changed the subject, never mentioning Spirit Masters again.
Innate Level 6 Spirit Power was indeed a good talent for an ordinary Spirit Master. Even in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, such a person would be a key target for cultivation.
But compared to Ye Feng and Ning Rongrong, it still fell a little short.
If Bai Chenxiang learned of their talents, how awkward would that be?
Soon, evening arrived, and Ye Feng's group of three was led before Ning Fengzhi by disciples of the Speed Clan.
On Bai He's side, a lavish dinner had long since been prepared for them.
