The aura of the Saint Realm surged forth, as if the sky were collapsing, making it almost impossible for the clansmen present to breathe, and they all showed expressions of distress.
Moreover, Feng Yong could sense that the other party's aura had already locked onto her location.
The other party was clearly coming for her.
Why?
Feng Yong was utterly bewildered.
She had absolutely no recollection of ever offending the Saint Realm!
It's impossible that it was done by one's own people.
Every time the tribesmen went out to train, they would return and tell her everything that had happened. None of the tribesmen had caused any trouble outside.
In particular, it has provoked the Saint Realm.
This is simply a fantasy!
Yet the aura of that Saint Realm was so distinct...
Just as Feng Yong was in a daze, an old man appeared in front of her.
The old man was dressed in black, with eagle-like eyebrows and sharp eyes, staring straight at Feng Yong.
He had one hand behind his back, his eyes filled with boundless rage, a fury that surged toward Feng Yong as if he wanted to crush her to death on the spot.
But upon seeing the old man's true form, Feng Yong felt a sense of relief.
It's not Saint Realm...
Rather, he was Half-Saint.
Just now, the reason she sensed the aura of the Saint Realm was because the old man possessed many treasures, which amplified his aura, making him appear as if he were in the Saint Realm.
In reality, the opponent's cultivation level was only at the Peak Half-Saint realm, just one step away from the Saint Realm.
If this step is not taken, one cannot be considered Saint Realm. Even if the opponent has strength comparable to the Saint Realm, they are only a Half-Saint.
Although Half-Saint is quite powerful, he is not Saint Realm after all, and Feng Yong's tense heart immediately felt a little lighter.
If they truly offend the Saint Realm, even if a celestial being were to personally intervene, it would be difficult to save the Feng Household.
Since it wasn't Saint Realm, Feng Yong took a deep breath and regained some of the strength to speak.
She took two steps forward, lowered her head slightly, and asked, forcing herself to be brave.
"Sir, may I ask what brings you to the Feng Household?"
After hearing her speak, the Half-Saint elder slowly shifted his gaze to her and spoke in an ambiguous tone.
"You are Feng Yong? The patriarch of the Feng Household?"
Feng Yong nodded. "Exactly."
The heavy Stone in her heart was lifted, pounding against her chest and stirring up a sense of anxiety.
This Half-Saint actually knew her name.
They really came for the Feng Household!
What should we do?
She was no match for Half-Saint, let alone her own clansmen.
Given the opponent's aggressive approach... this hurdle is likely to be difficult to overcome.
As Feng Yong pondered what to do, he suddenly heard the old man in front of him snort coldly, his attitude instantly turning extremely hostile. Too lazy to say anything more, he spoke directly.
"Hand over Feng Lai, and I have no intention of saying another word to you. Otherwise, the entire Feng Household, including you..."
"Die!!"
His tone was arrogant, domineering, and carried an unquestionable certainty.
This caused Feng Yong's expression to suddenly turn extremely ugly.
Feng Lai?
There was indeed such a person among her people.
She was the sixth elder of the Feng Household, appointed by her after she came to the Eastern Continent and founded the Feng Household.
Strength reaches the Venerable Realm.
Elder Feng Lai has always been a peaceful person and rarely gets into conflicts with others, so how could it be him?
Feng Yong bit her lip and said in a low voice, "Senior, could there be some misunderstanding? My Feng Household's sixth elder..."
But before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by a gust of wind coming from the opposite direction.
The fierce wind contained the boundless rage of the Half-Saint elder.
His tone was displeased, and his expression cold as he said, "Misunderstanding? You mean I've wronged you? You've got some nerve!"
"I'll let you all die knowing the truth—I am Tu Zhengshan!"
Tu Zhengshan stared at Feng Yong with a cold expression, his tone menacing, like a giant python ready to devour its prey. His wild aura enveloped the entire Feng Household, ensuring that no one could escape under his watchful eye.
Feng Yong's guess was correct.
He's here today for revenge!
In his view, Feng Yong was merely Great Emperor Realm, yet he dared to speak to him like that?
If he hadn't been mindful of the rules of the Endless Sea, he would have slaughtered the other party and their Feng Household long ago, just to avenge his grandson!
Now, he only asked her to hand over one of her clansmen, but she still dared to delay. He had already shown absolute mercy by not killing her immediately.
But even a clay figure has some temper, let alone him.
His impatience grew stronger, and murderous intent appeared in his eyes.
"Your Feng Household elder, Feng Lai, killed my grandson Tu Yang, two months ago while training in the Azure Sea Secret Realm. Today, taking his life is already showing you considerable leniency. Hand him over immediately, or else..."
"Don't blame me for being impolite!"
Behind Feng Yong, a young man stared wide-eyed in astonishment.
He was Feng Lai, the sixth elder of the Feng Household.
But before this, he never imagined that he would have brought this disaster upon himself!
The gazes of her clansmen around her became increasingly unsettling, and Feng Lai felt deeply wronged. She blurted out, "It wasn't me!"
He hurriedly explained to Feng Yong.
"Clan leader, I did go on a training trip with Tu Yang, along with another person, Liang Qiuyi from the Liang Holy Clan. But Tu Yang is Heavenly Venerable, while I am merely a Venerable. How could I possibly kill him?"
"This is utter slander!"
Tu Zhengshan sneered again, his eyes narrowing as he locked onto Feng Lai, who had spoken.
"You mean, that person from the Liang Household can lie?"
It was that member of the Liang Household who told him that Feng Lai of the Feng Household had killed his grandson; otherwise, how would he have known that Feng Lai was the murderer?
Tu Zhengshan had no idea that Liang Qiuyi lie.
The Liang Household's ancestor was a true Saint Realm.
Liang Qiuyi had no reason to fear her Lineage, and therefore no reason to lie.
Therefore, Feng Lai is the murderer!
Even if it isn't, it has to be!
His grandson Tu Yang, went on a training trip with these two men. He left peacefully, but died a violent death outside. He didn't even get to see his grandson's remains.
One of these two must be the culprit.
He couldn't, and dared not, cause trouble for the Holy Clan; they couldn't afford to provoke such a force!
But someone has to be held responsible for his grandson's death!
Even if it wasn't them, even if the other party was innocent, if the Liang Holy Clan says they are the murderers, then they should be, and can only be, the murderers!
Hearing Tu Zhengshan's distorted words, Feng Lai's chest heaved with anger, and she clenched her fists tightly.
He gritted his teeth and roared, "No means no!"
"If someone wants to condemn me, they can always find a pretext. I, Feng Lai, have always been courageous and responsible. Clan Chief, I truly did not kill anyone!"
Feng Yong was well aware of the character of his clansmen.
She also believed that Feng Lai hadn't killed Tu Yang.
After all, Feng Lai was only at the Venerable Realm, and not even the strongest among the Venerable Realm. To say that she could kill the grandson of a Half-Saint, who was also at the Heavenly Venerable Realm, was simply a fantasy!
All of this was clearly an undeserved disaster. The other party dared not seek revenge against the Liang Holy Clan, but instead set their sights on those of us with no background!
Feng Yong was filled with resentment and anger. This was blatant bullying of people like them who had no backing or background.
Upon meeting Tu Zhengshan's gaze, Feng Yong bit her red lips tightly and took a deep breath.
Now, she can say she has no other options, but...
After much hesitation, she finally spoke.
"Senior, this matter was indeed not done by the Feng Household. Moreover, we have already submitted to the Primordial Holy Heaven and will soon be moving into the Supreme City. We beg you to calm down for the sake of the Primordial Holy Heaven. The Feng Household can work with you to find the real culprit."
