Ten Thousand Cultivators Came to Pay Homage
For the Cloud Ethereal Sect and the Supreme Void Monastery, the destruction of the Blood River Sect was actually a good thing.
Without the Blood River Sect, the Azure Spirit Mountain Market has lost a super power to divide it up.
They wouldn't be so foolish as to fight that mysterious expert for the sake of the Blood River Sect, which had already been wiped out.
So-called contracts mean absolutely nothing in the face of self-interest.
As for whether these two would retaliate, they considered it highly unlikely.
At their level, there's almost no sense of sectarian loyalty.
For them, sects are more of a means to gain profit; no one would risk their life for a sect that has been destroyed.
Qing Xuzi looked at Fairy Yunluo and said:
"Fairy Yunluo, I'll need your help to get in touch with the Yuting Trading Company later. Try your best to build a good relationship with them."
Fairy Yunluo smiled slightly:
"I understand what you mean, fellow Daoist."
Neither of them were fools. Chen Feng's decision not to attack them clearly indicated that he didn't intend to pursue the matter of their previous actions against the Yuting Trading Company.
This is both a warning and a reprimand.
In that case, all they need to do is contact the Yuting Trading Company and then share a portion of the profits from Azure Spirit Mountain Market.
This outcome didn't change anything for either of them; on the contrary, it was a good thing.
Over the years, the Blood River Sect's power has gradually grown, and both families have felt threatened.
The Yuting Trading Company is just a chamber of commerce and will not affect their status in Azure Spirit Mountain.
Qing Xuzi then added, "Try to find out about that person's background. We had no idea such a powerful figure had appeared on Profound Firmament Star."
Fairy Yunluo hesitated for a moment and said:
"Could it be cultivators from other major stars?"
"That's possible. Recently, the Void Spirit Race has been invading, and powerful figures have been frequently appearing on various major stars within the star field. They might just be old monsters from some major star."
"The Star Palace's decree will likely arrive on our Profound Firmament Star soon," Fairy Yunluo sighed.
Qing Xuzi said:
"It hasn't come to that yet. Purple Tenuity Star and Illusory Radiance Star have already sent people there. With the strength of these two cultivation stars, they are enough to fight against the Void Spirit Race for a long time."
"That's true." Fairy Yunluo nodded.
They chatted briefly for a while before parting ways.
Several days later, in the Northern Border Canglan Star.
The first batch of Nascent Soul Cultivator who accepted Chen Feng's invitation have arrived in the Northern Border.
Most of these people were cultivators from the Southern Region.
Among them, the Expansion Divine Sect and Moon-Gazing City sent the most people, with more than twenty Nascent Soul Cultivator from the two forces combined.
These two forces had dealt with the Xingfeng Sect many years ago, and there had been many conflicts between them.
However, after the battle at Falling Rosy Clouds Valley, their relationship with the Xingfeng Sect improved.
At a teleportation array in the Northern Border, Jiang Bohan and Gu Ran appeared simultaneously with their entourage.
This time, both forces brought almost all the Nascent Soul Cultivator they could.
Besides the Nascent Soul Cultivator, young disciples from the two factions also came along.
Although this time it was Chen Feng who invited all the Nascent Soul Cultivator of Canglan Star to discuss matters.
However, this also gave the various Nascent Soul Cultivator on Canglan Star an opportunity to make friends with each other.
In the past, Nascent Soul Cultivator from various regions of Canglan Star had little interaction with each other.
After all, they are quite far apart.
Some talented disciples followed along, also to witness the prodigies of other forces.
As soon as Jiang Bohan and the others appeared, a voice rang out from the side:
"Welcome to the Xingfeng Sect, everyone. I am Mo Chen, and I am here to greet you all."
Everyone's eyes immediately turned to Mo Chen.
Jiang Bohan smiled and said, "I've also heard of Deacon Mo's name."
Although Mo Chen was just a mortal, Jiang Bohan showed no airs whatsoever.
The others were also unsurprised.
If it were any other force, ordinary people wouldn't even appear here, but Xingfeng Sect is a special force in itself.
This faction includes mortals, martial artists, and cultivators.
Moreover, some mortals and martial artists hold very high positions. Mo Chen had already appeared in the intelligence reports of various forces and was considered a high-ranking member of the Xingfeng Sect.
Mo Chen smiled slightly:
"Commander Jiang, you're too kind. There's still some time before the meeting. You may all go to the reception area in Hengduan Mountain; there are specially prepared cave abode for you there."
"Furthermore, you may also stroll around the Xingfeng Sect City during this time."
Facing so many Nascent Soul stage cultivators, Mo Chen didn't seem nervous at all; he had seen far too many cultivators over the years.
He naturally came into contact with quite a few Nascent Soul Cultivator.
Gu Ran, who was standing nearby, then asked:
"I heard that your organization will be holding a large exchange meeting before the start of the council meeting?"
Mo Chen nodded. "That's true. There are no fewer than a thousand Nascent Soul Cultivator here this time. Holding an exchange fair will allow everyone to exchange for what they need. Our Xingfeng Sect will only charge a certain handling fee, and the date is set for seven days from now."
Gu Ran nodded, his anticipation growing.
Nascent Soul Realm already places one among the top experts on Canglan Star.
Very few things can catch the eye of someone at their level; only things of the same level can interest them.
The exchange meeting held by the Xingfeng Sect this time will surely yield something useful for him.
Just as the group was talking, the teleportation array lit up again.
Another group of people arrived via the teleportation array. This time, there were even more people, numbering in the hundreds, including dozens of Nascent Soul cultivators and several Half-Step Spirit Transformation Nascent Soul Cultivator.
"So it's you fellow Daoists from the Northern Region. I didn't expect you to arrive so quickly." Gu Ran immediately recognized the group.
Because the Northern Region is close to the Southern Region, cultivators from there naturally arrive faster than those from other regions.
"Fellow Daoist Gu, you've arrived quite quickly. It's been over a hundred years since we last met, hasn't it?" The speaker was a middle-aged man.
He wore a cloud-colored robe, which made him appear gentle and refined.
This person is Wei Ya, the sect leader of the Ethereal Sect in the Northern Region, who has the cultivation level of Half-Step Spirit Transformation cultivator.
There are nine major powers in the Northern Region, and these nine powers form an alliance to jointly manage the Northern Region.
Originally, the nine major forces were led by the Heaven-Supporting Alliance, but the Heaven-Supporting Alliance was purged by the Cultivation Alliance for surrendering to the Void Spirit Race Void Spirit Race the last battle, and is now practically defunct.
Currently, the Ethereal Sect is the leader of the nine major forces in the Northern Region.
Gu Ran smiled and said, "Since we've met, why don't you all travel together?"
Wei Ya nodded. "Of course, no problem."
The two groups of people quickly gathered together and headed towards the Hengduan Mountain.
Even Nascent Soul Cultivator cannot fly near the Hengduan Mountain; they can only choose to walk.
On the way, the young disciples from both domains looked around.
Today, modern facilities and distinctive architectural styles can be seen everywhere in the Hengduan Mountain, which has broadened the horizons of many people who have never been to the Xingfeng Sect before.
No one chose to wander around. Although they were all genius disciples in their respective factions, this was Xingfeng Sect, the number one power on Canglan Star.
They could only obediently stay by their elders' side.
"Senior Sister Lu, Senior Sister Yu, I heard you know Senior Chen, is that true?"
Among the talented disciples of the Northern Region, a young disciple asked Lu Youqing and Yu Duo a question.
More than a decade has passed, Lu Youqing and Yu Duo have not changed much in appearance.
Both of them were Golden Core cultivators, so maintaining their youthful appearance was very easy for them.
The two women are now leaders among the younger generation of the Ethereal Sect.
Yu Duo smiled and said, "Of course I know him. Senior Chen even saved my and my senior sister's lives."
When Chen Feng is mentioned, Yu Duo can't hide her smile.
"Could Senior Sister Yu tell us about Senior Chen?" someone asked expectantly.
For these young geniuses, Chen Feng was undoubtedly their most admired person.
In less than a hundred years, Chen Feng has grown from a Foundation Establishment cultivator to Spirit Transformation.
They were naturally very curious about Chen Feng's past.
Yu Duo was about to speak when Lu Youqing stopped her, saying, "Duo'er, don't speak carelessly about your senior's affairs."
Upon hearing Lu Youqing speak, Yu Duo'er also abandoned her plan to continue.
"Okay, I'll listen to my senior sister."
The young cultivators on the Southern Region watched this scene silently, and the young disciples on both sides did not walk together.
The four domains of Canglan Star already had a poor relationship, and the young disciples of the various forces were even more at odds with each other.
In particular, the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion ranks Prodigy Ranking, which further fuels the rivalry among these young disciples.
"They've only met Senior Chen a few times and they're already bragging about it. Our Senior Sister Jiang and Senior Chen were close friends back then. These people from the Northern Region are really ignorant."
A young genius from Moon-Gazing City said disdainfully.
Jiang Jiu immediately reprimanded, "Don't talk nonsense. Senior Chen and I haven't reached that level of friendship yet."
The conversation among the younger disciples naturally did not escape the notice of the group of Nascent Soul monsters walking ahead.
Jiang Bohan looked at Wei Ya and asked:
"Does your sect have connections with Sect Master Chen?"
Wei Ya smiled and waved his hand, "It's nothing much, just that two disciples from my sect helped Sect Master Chen with some small favors back then, so we formed some goodwill."
Although Wei Ya said those words, his tone was extremely smug.
Lu Youqing and Yu Duo knew Chen Feng, and their Ethereal Sect expanded its influence considerably because of this.
Jiang Bohan nodded:
"Your sect's disciple is truly fortunate. If he could receive even a little guidance from Sect Master Chen, his future would surely be limitless."
Everyone knows that Chen Feng is now recognized as the number one person on Canglan Star.
To be able to connect with Chen Feng, even in the slightest way, would be an incredible fortuitous opportunity of luck.
Wei Ya then changed the subject and asked:
"Commander Jiang, do you know what Sect Master Chen invited so many people to the Northern Border to discuss?"
Jiang Bohan shook his head. "I don't know. I asked Steward Liu, but he didn't reveal anything. However, I suspect it's likely related to the Void Spirit Race."
Wei Ya nodded. "I had the same guess. Sect Master Chen probably wants to gather all forces to discuss a way to fight against the Void Spirit Race."
As the group was chatting, several powerful auras suddenly emanated from afar.
Everyone in the room was startled and quickly looked up.
Three streaks of light flew down from above their heads, and the aura emanating from these three streaks was clearly that of the Spirit Transformation stage.
"A Spirit Transformation cultivator has actually come!" Wei Ya exclaimed in shock.
The members of the Expansion Divine Sect standing nearby bowed towards the sky, saying, "Greetings, Ancestor!"
One of the streaks of light stopped at this moment, revealing the figure of Youluan.
She addressed the members of the Expansion Divine Sect:
"Keep the sect members in check and prevent them from causing trouble in the Northern Border."
Gu Ran immediately replied, "This junior understands!"
A voice came from the beam of light ahead:
"Youluan, don't waste time, Fellow Daoist Chen is still waiting for us."
The voice belonged to none other than Nangong Wentian.
Youluan didn't say anything more to the people from the Expansion Divine Sect. She then followed the two streaks of light ahead and headed towards the summit of Hengduan Mountain.
Only after the three streaks of light disappeared into the distance did everyone in the arena breathe a sigh of relief.
The mere aura emanating from Spirit Transformation was enough to put pressure on these cultivators.
Wei Ya looked at Gu Ran and asked:
"Was that your senior, Youluan, from your sect just now?"
Gu Ran nodded. "Yes, it is indeed my ancestor."
Wei Ya said in surprise, "I didn't expect even Spirit Transformation senior to come to this gathering. But who doesn't know who the other two Spirit Transformation seniors are?"
Gu Ran said with a smile:
"If I'm not mistaken, the other two should be Alliance Master Lu and the current Holy Emperor of Great Zhou. My ancestor has been spending time with them lately."
These words once again shocked everyone.
Even Lu Linyuan, the leader of the Cultivation Alliance, came in person, which was something no one expected.
Furthermore, they also considered a problem: Lu Linyuan represented the Cultivation Alliance.
Even he responded to Chen Feng's invitation this time, doesn't that mean that Xingfeng Sect's status on Canglan Star has surpassed that of the Cultivation Alliance?
However, people only dared to think about such things in their hearts, and dared not say them out loud.
Xingfeng Sect, backyard, pavilion.
Chen Feng, Lu Linyuan, and the other two sat at a stone table.
Seeing Lu Linyuan's full head of white hair, Chen Feng asked with concern:
"Senior, how are you doing now?"
Lu Linyuan smiled and shook his head:
"Don't worry, I won't die anytime soon, I'll just lose some of my lifespan."
Chen Feng sighed. He could tell that Lu Linyuan probably didn't have much time left.
Although he destroyed the Devil Cultivator, Lu Linyuan paid a heavy price for forcibly merging with Devil Cultivator in that battle.
Seeing the tense atmosphere, Nangong Wentian, who was standing nearby, changed the subject and said:
"I've heard that your Xingfeng Sect has quite a few good things. Since we've come all this way, you must treat us well."
Youluan remained silent, only glancing at Chen Feng, clearly sharing a similar sentiment with Nangong Wentian.
Chen Feng thought for a moment, then took out three cans of cola from his Storage Ring:
"This is a special beverage from our Xingfeng Sect. Would you like to try it?"
Without hesitation, Nangong Wentian picked up a can of cola and drank it. As soon as the cola went down his throat, a strange expression appeared on his face:
"This stuff tastes so weird."
Youluan, standing beside her, was equally interested. She picked up a can of cola, took a sip, and her eyes lit up slightly.
"The taste is quite unique, do you sell this?"
Lu Linyuan, standing to the side, shook his head helplessly at the two of them. He then asked Chen Feng earnestly:
"We've come here to ask you, what are you planning to discuss by suddenly inviting so many people here?"
Upon hearing this, both Nangong Wentian and Youluan turned their gazes toward Chen Feng.
The three of them came here to inquire about this matter with Chen Feng.
Chen Feng smiled faintly:
"I originally intended to announce this after everyone had arrived, but since the three of you have come early, I won't hide it from you anymore."
