âChu Feng, Iâm grateful for your kind intentions.â
âHowever, youâre unable to help me. You should instead quickly nurse yourself back to health, and continue establishing a space in your soul,â said the Ox-nosed Old Daoist.
âSenior, Iâm in no rush. Please nurse your health first. I will continue with establishing a space in my soul after youâre healthy again,â said Chu Feng.
âAre you certain that youâre in no rush?â asked the Ox-nosed Old Daoist.
âLinghu Hongfei has already canceled his battle appointment against me. With that, I have no need to rush. I will go and find him to avenge Lingxi after I have fused with my Divine Power,â said Chu Feng.
âBoy, you were deceived by them," said the Ox-nosed Old Daoist.
âDeceived?â
âSenior, what do you mean by that?â
Chu Fengâs gaze immediately changed upon hearing those words.
âThis old man has a rough idea of your current situation.â
âLinghu Hongfei has not canceled the appointment against you in three months.â
âThat appointment is still valid.â
âNot only that, but the overlord of the Ancestral Martial Starfield has already changed hands. Currently, the overlord is none other than the Linghu Heavenly Clan,â said the Ox-nosed Old Daoist.
âThe Wuming Clan has been defeated by the Linghu Heavenly Clan?â A shocked expression appeared in Chu Fengâs eyes.
âMn. Apart from a small amount of experts that managed to flee, the rest of the Wuming Clan have all been killed," said the Ox-nosed Old Daoist.
âThe Linghu Heavenly Clan actually has such strength?â
Chu Feng felt even more astonished.
Although he knew that the Linghu Heavenly Clan must possess a certain amount of strength, seeing that they dared to wage war against the Wuming Clan, he did not expect the war for the Ancestral Martial Starfieldâs overlord status to end so quickly.
Evidently, the Linghu Heavenly Clan was much more powerful than he had imagined.
âBut, why would they deceive me?â
âCould it be that Lingxi wants to take on Linghu Hongfei by herself?â asked Chu Feng.
âThat shouldnât be it. Theyâre afraid that youâll be in danger.â
âThe reason for that is because they actually received two pieces of information.â
âApart from the information of the Linghu Heavenly Clan obtaining the Starfield Master Realmâs overlord status, the other piece of information was related to you and Linghu Hongfei," said the Ox-nosed Old Daoist.
âSenior, exactly what is that second piece of information?â asked Chu Feng.
âYou should know about Exalted Heavenly Fate, right? Iâve heard that he was the one who prophesied the predestined battle between you and Linghu Hongfei,â said the Ox-nosed Old Daoist.
âThus, the second piece of information is related to Exalted Heavenly Fate?â asked Chu Feng.
âCorrect. Exalted Heavenly Fate had made another prophecy.â
âThis time around, he prophesied the outcome of the battle between you and Linghu Hongfei,â said the Ox-nosed Old Daoist.
Hearing those words, Chu Fengâs gaze turned serious. He asked, âWhat is the outcome?â
âYou will die,â said the Ox-nosed Old Daoist.
âDie?â Chu Fengâs heart tensed up upon hearing those words.
âThatâs right. Not only will you be defeated in the battle, but you will also be killed.â
âExalted Heavenly Fateâs prophecies all come to fruition. All these years, never has he made a mistake in his prophecy.â
âIt is precisely because of that prophecy that Chu Lingxi, Gu Mingyuan, Chu Xuanzhengfa and even Grandmaster Liangqiu decide to join hands in deceiving you.â
âDid you notice that there was spirit power flowing throughout all of their bodies? That was Grandmaster Liangqiuâs trick.â
âHe knows that youâre a Saint-cloak World Spiritist and possesses sharp perception. Fearing that Chu Lingxi and the othersâ lies would be detected by you, he deliberately set up a spirit formation on their bodies so that they could deceive you.â
âThat said, they are doing all this for your sake.â
âHowever, I feel that you should know the truth,â said the Ox-nosed Old Daoist.
âThank you for telling me the truth, senior.â
At that moment, Chu Feng felt truly grateful towards the Ox-nosed Old Daoist.
Although Chu Lingxi and others had deceived him for his own good, he knew what they would be confronted with.
They would no longer simply be facing the Linghu Heavenly Clan. Instead, they would be facing the strongest power in the entire Ancestral Martial Starfield.
As for Chu Lingxiâs opponent, he was someone that even Exalted Heavenly Fate prophesied that Chu Feng could not defeat.
It was impossible for Chu Feng to allow Chu Lingxi and the Chu Heavenly Clansmen to confront all of that.
Even though he knew that the battle was extremely dangerous, he still had to go.
âThus, youâve decided to keep the appointment?â asked the Ox-nosed Old Daoist.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âMn.â Chu Feng nodded.
âYouâre still planning to go even though you know that youâll die?â asked the Ox-nosed Old Daoist.
âDie? How could one be so certain that Iâll die?â asked Chu Feng.
âExalted Heavenly Fateâs prophecies have never been wrong,â said the Ox-nosed Old Daoist.
âIn that case, it would mean that his prophecy will be wrong for the first time.â
âI, Chu Feng, do not even care about my life. Thus, how could I care about a mere prophecy from that Exalted Heavenly Fate?â A cold smile appeared on Chu Fengâs face.
âVery well. Boy, you have courage.â
âTake out your Fire Qilin Talisman. This old man will help you fuse with it.â
As the Ox-nosed Old Daoist spoke, he suddenly stood up, put on his clothes and extended his hand towards Chu Feng.
âSenior, your injuries are still...â Chu Feng wanted to refuse. After all, the Ox-nosed Old Daoist was still extremely weak.
âInjuries? Youâve seen the injuries on my body. Compared to those injuries, my current injuries are nothing.â
âChu Feng, you are not only carrying your own reputation right now. You are also carrying the reputation of your father and your grandfather.â
âThus, you can refuse to go to keep the appointment. But, if you are to go, you must return from the battle victorious, and show the people of the world your talents and capability.â
âIf youâre a man, do not act so long-winded. Hand me that Fire Qilin Talisman,â the Ox-nosed Old Daoist urged Chu Feng.
Seeing that he was unable to make the Ox-nosed Old Daoist change his mind, Chu Feng took out the Fire Qilin Talisman.
That said, he did not only take out the Fire Qilin Talisman. He also took out a scroll.
âSenior, you possess remarkable abilities. Why donât you help me have a look at this and determine what the contents of this scroll are?â said Chu Feng.
That scroll was something that his father had brought back from the Greenfield Upper Realmâs Demon Prison Valley.
As for the Demon Prison Valley, it was once an Eccentricâs Remnant of the Ancestral Martial Starfield.
Chu Feng had tried opening the scroll before. However, he was simply unable to open it.
That said, Chu Feng felt that the scroll was an extraordinary item.
Originally, Chu Feng was planning to rely on himself to open the scroll. After all, it was something from his father. He wanted to use his own power to open it.
However, the current situation looked extremely bad. Although Chu Feng had said he was not afraid of the Linghu Heavenly Clan, he didnât know if he would be able to return from this battle alive.
Because of that, Chu Feng wanted to draw support from the Ox-nosed Old Daoist and open the scroll.
âAllow this old man to have a look.â
The Ox-nosed Old Daoist took the scroll from Chu Feng. After inspecting it, he shook his head.
âIf this old man has guessed correctly, within this scroll should be an Exalted Taboo Martial Skill!!!â said the Ox-nosed Old Daoist.
