The Feng Lineage's Secrets
"Well..."
The head of the Feng Lineage sighed deeply, then slowly said, "This is not the place to talk. I will speak to you all one by one after the banquet."
"Sure, let's continue drinking."
Chu Feng raised his wine glass again as he spoke.
"Good!"
Everyone acted as if nothing had happened, continuing to drink and chat.
The banquet lasted until late at night.
Chu Feng and the others, along with the Feng Lineage members, arrived at the Feng Lineage home. After the Feng Lineage patriarch left a few influential figures behind, he dismissed those around him and personally brewed a pot of tea for Chu Feng.
Everyone sat around the tea table, sipping tea and waiting for the head of the Feng Lineage to speak.
After finishing the tea, the head of the Feng Lineage put down his teacup and said, "This matter must begin with the origins of my Feng Lineage. People only know that my Feng Lineage's ancestor became a Daoist partner with a phoenix and lived here, but no one knows where the phoenix ancestor came from."
Upon hearing this, Chu Feng and the others immediately showed expressions of great interest.
Ye Beixuan took over the conversation. "May I ask, senior, was that ancestor not a cultivator from the Profound Continent, but rather from another continent?"
"Good."
The head of the Feng Lineage nodded. "Millions of years ago, there was a great war between the two continents of the Primordial World. Both the Dragon Clan and the Phoenix Clan wanted to unify the two continents of the Profound Heaven Continent."
Ultimately, both the Dragon and Phoenix clans suffered heavy losses. The Dragon Clan retreated into the Endless Sea, while the Phoenix Clan retreated to their ancestral land in the Desolate Continent, transforming from the former overlords of the Desolate Continent into one of the major powers.
It was around that time that our ancestor was accidentally transported from the Desolate Continent to the Profound Continent, where he married the progenitor and had children.
However, their happiness was short-lived. After a thousand years of loving companionship, the Phoenix Clan sent people to take their ancestor away. Naturally, the ancestor refused, which led to a war between the Saint, with neither side able to gain the upper hand.
Finally, an agreement was reached that any descendant of Fire Phoenix Valley who achieves sainthood must return to their ancestral land to undergo the baptism of burning desire and become Phoenix Clan.
Of course, the descendants of Fire Phoenix Valley can also participate in the Phoenix Ancestral Land Trial once every thousand years, and the top three can obtain the Ancestral Parasol Tree.
The ancestral land trial will begin in a year, and among the younger generation of disciples, only Qiongyu and Qionghua have awakened the Phoenix Bloodline.
Qionghua is currently in seclusion, breaking through to the Spirit Nurturing stage, and will not be able to emerge for a year. Therefore, the heavy responsibility falls on Qiongyu's shoulders.
However, it is by no means easy for Qiongyu to take the top three spots in the trial alone. Therefore, my Feng Lineage came up with the idea of a martial arts contest to find a prodigy to accompany Qiongyu to participate in the trial.
After hearing what the Feng Lineage patriarch said Chu Feng and the others all showed expressions of understanding.
Cao Youqian asked, "But Junior Brother Ye doesn't have the Phoenix Bloodline, can he still participate in the trial?"
The head of the Feng Lineage said, "As long as they get married under the phoenix tree, they can participate in the trial. This is why I urged them to get married as soon as possible."
After saying that, he turned his gaze to Chu Feng.
A teacher for a day is a father for life; Chu Feng is now no different from Ye Beixuan's father.
"In that case, it's better to do this sooner rather than later."
Chu Feng was a reasonable person. He turned to Ye Beixuan and said, "Beixuan, in my opinion, you should choose an auspicious day next month to get married."
Upon hearing this, the head of the Feng Lineage's eyes lit up. "Thank you, Chief Chu."
Chu Feng smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, there's no need for thanks. However, time is a bit tight. My suggestion is to hold two weddings, one at the Feng Lineage and one at the Dao-Seeking Academy, to avoid a shortage of guests."
"Good idea, then I'll go and choose an auspicious day."
The head of the Feng Lineage was visibly excited.
"Alright, then we'll take our leave."
With that, Chu Feng led his disciples away.
On the way back, Cao Youqian said excitedly, "Junior Brother Ye, congratulations on getting your wish and being able to go to the Desolate Continent for training."
Ye Beixuan smiled and said, "All of this is thanks to the help of Master and my two senior brothers. Otherwise, I 'Beixuan afraid it would have taken me a hundred years to marry Qiongyu."
Chu Feng patted him on the shoulder. "It won't take a hundred years, within sixty years you will surely become Great Sage. At that time, the Feng Lineage will naturally marry their daughter to you. But things are good now too. Just wait and see when you become your groom."
"Promise."
After Ye Beixuan finished speaking, his eyes also flashed with excitement.
Even though he had become indifferent to many things after living two lives, the thought of marrying Feng Qiongyu still made his usually calm heart exceptionally excited.
Time flies, and two months later...
Ye Beixuan and Feng Qiongyu held their second wedding ceremony at the Dao-Seeking Academy.
Three days after their wedding, Ye Beixuan came to bid farewell to Chu Feng.
"Master, this disciple is going to Fire Phoenix Valley."
Looking at the spirited disciple before him, Chu Feng took out the Sword Jade from his storage ring and handed it over.
"You are going to a remote, Desolate Continent on this journey, and you will likely encounter many troubles. I don't need to elaborate on the uses of this Sword Jade. Take care of yourself."
"Thank you, Master."
After Ye Beixuan finished speaking, he bowed to Chu Feng and then left with Feng Qiongyu.
Cao Youqian watched Ye Beixuan's retreating figure and murmured, "I really envy Junior Brother Ye for being able to go to other continents to train."
Chu Feng laughed and said, "You want to try your hand at fighting on other continents too?"
Cao Youqian nodded. "The cultivators of the Profound Continent have all heard of my and my senior brother's fame. I want to go to other continents and make a name for myself."
"What's so difficult about that?"
Chu Feng smiled and said, "Our Dao-Seeking Academy also has branches in other continents. You can use the teleportation array to travel to other continents for training."
Cao Youqian slapped his forehead. "How could I have forgotten about that?"
Xiao Chen, who was standing to the side, also spoke up, "In that case, I'd like to visit other continents as well."
"Alright, let's go find the dean now and ask him to assign you a teleportation array to activate."
Chu Feng stood up as he spoke.
The two men's faces lit up with joy upon hearing this. "Thank you, Master."
The three of them then flew towards the Dean's villa.
As soon as the three landed, the steward of the villa came to greet them.
"This disciple pays respects to Chief Chu and the two Holy Sons."
Chu Feng smiled and said, "No need for formalities. Is the Dean in the other courtyard?"
Steward: "The Headmaster of the Chief Chu is brewing tea. I will go and report to him immediately."
Chu Feng: "Hmm."
A moment later, the deacon came out and said respectfully, "Chief Chu, the Dean requests your presence."
Thank you.
After Chu Feng finished speaking, he led his two disciples straight inside.
The three of them crossed the front yard and soon arrived at the backyard of the Birdsong Garden, where the headmaster was intently brewing tea.
Sensing the arrival of the three, he didn't stop what he was doing and said unhurriedly:
"Little Feng, the celebration at your Miscellaneous Dao Institute has just ended, and you're already itching to cause trouble?"
Chu Feng feigned a hurt expression. "Sir, you're mistaken. I truly had no intention of causing trouble. I came to you for the sake of Little Chen and Daqian's cultivation."
"Oh?"
Upon hearing this, the dean immediately became interested. "So, you've got the ability to guide your disciples one day?"
