“Lingxi, your mother is incredible.”
Having witnessed Gu Mingyuan’s strength, Chu Feng’s heart was filled with admiration as he looked at Chu Lingxi in front of him.
“Brother Chu Feng, is only my mother impressive? Am I not impressive too?”
Chu Lingxi looked at Chu Feng, a playful smile spreading across her sweet face.
Immediately after, she released her aura.
At that moment, everyone present was stunned.
Chu Lingxi’s aura was, astonishingly, the same as Chu Feng’s—Third Rank Venerable.
But everyone knew that back then, Chu Lingxi was far weaker than Chu Feng.
In terms of talent, while Chu Lingxi’s performance was impressive in the Great Thousand Upper Realm, it wasn’t considered top-tier in the Ancestral Martial Starfield.
Yet now, she had reached Third Rank Venerable, surpassing most of the younger generation in the Ancestral Martial Starfield.
The first person people thought of as the cause of this transformation was her mother, Gu Mingyuan.
“Lingxi, you little sneak, you’ve been hiding your strength,” Chu Feng said with a smile. He had a good relationship with Chu Lingxi, arguably the closest among the Chu Heavenly Clan’s younger generation.
After all, when the entire Chu Heavenly Clan shunned Chu Feng, Chu Lingxi was the first to accept him.
Seeing her achieve such cultivation today, Chu Feng was genuinely happy for her.
“Hiding my strength? It’s all thanks to my mother’s help. In truth, you’re the impressive one, Chu Feng. Your cultivation is all your own effort.”
“But honestly, cultivation isn’t what matters most to me. Finding out you’re still alive after I came out of seclusion—that’s the best news,” Chu Lingxi said to Chu Feng.
“Little girl, thanks,” Chu Feng replied.
“Thanks for what?” Chu Lingxi asked.
“Your mother’s willingness to step in—isn’t that because of you?” Chu Feng said.
Everyone knew about the relationship between Gu Mingyuan and Chu Xuanzhengfa.
But in reality, the Wanzhou Ancient Clan’and the Chu Heavenly Clan weren’t on good terms.
Otherwise, the Chu Heavenly Clan wouldn’t have been bullied by so many forces over the years.
If the Wanzhou Ancient Clan had been protecting them, who would dare touch the Chu Heavenly Clan?
Yet today, Gu Mingyuan not only resolved the crisis for the Chu Heavenly Clan but also wiped out the Blood Devouring Hall entirely.
Chu Feng was certain this was Chu Lingxi’s doing.
“What are you talking about? I’m part of the Chu Heavenly Clan too. My father and grandfather are both with the Chu Heavenly Clan.”
“But honestly, my mother’s decision to come today wasn’t because of me.”
“When I came out of seclusion and learned you weren’t dead, I wanted to come back to see you.”
“I planned to come alone, but my mother insisted on coming along. She said… she wanted to see you too,” Chu Lingxi said.
“Really?” Chu Feng was taken aback by her words.
“Lingxi’s right,” Gu Mingyuan’s voice rang out. At that moment, she had approached Chu Feng.
Gu Mingyuan, even when facing the Blood Devouring Hall’s leader, carried an air of superiority, as if no one in the world was worthy of her regard.
Yet now, this powerful woman looked at Chu Feng with a faint smile on her face.
If people hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn’t believe Gu Mingyuan could have such a gentle side.
“Junior Chu Feng pays respects to Senior,” Chu Feng hurriedly bowed to Gu Mingyuan.
After all, she wasn’t just the princess of the Wanzhou Ancient Clan but also Chu Lingxi’s mother, making her family, in a way.
“You do bear some resemblance to your father. It seems Chu Xuanyuan has a worthy successor,” Gu Mingyuan said.
“Senior, you know my father?” Chu Feng asked.
“We’ve crossed paths a few times,” Gu Mingyuan replied. Then, with a wave of her sleeve, immense martial power transformed into countless arrows, hovering in the void, surrounding those who had previously sided with the Blood Devouring Hall from all directions.
“Lady Gu Mingyuan, have mercy, please have mercy!”
Seeing the situation turn dire, those people hurriedly knelt in mid-air, kowtowing to Gu Mingyuan, begging for leniency.
They knew full well that if those arrows came down, they would all die.
However, Gu Mingyuan paid them no heed, instead turning her gaze to Chu Feng:
“Chu Feng, their lives are in your hands. If you say spare them, they live. If you say kill, they die.”
Chu Feng looked at them, a ruthless glint flashing in his eyes. He said one word: “Kill.”
Swish, swish, swish—
As soon as Chu Feng spoke, the countless arrows, as if receiving a command, shot forth like a torrential storm from all directions toward the group of martial experts.
Amid the flurry of arrows, a rain of blood fell from the sky.
In the blink of an eye, all those martial experts were dead, not a single one left.
Witnessing this, not only the onlookers but even the Chu Heavenly Clan members gasped in shock.
Those weren’t ordinary people—they were martial experts. Yet, in the face of Gu Mingyuan’s will, they were all killed in an instant.
This was the gap in realms, an insurmountable power suppression.
It not only showcased the terror of a Supreme Realm powerhouse but also made everyone realise that with enough strength, even those considered top experts by the world could be easily erased.
This was the dominance of realms.
