“Alright, lass, we’re all on the same side. No need to get so upset.”
At this moment, Long Shengbu spoke with a smile.
He didn’t want the situation to become too tense.
“I, Long Xiaoxiao, usually don’t bother with their nonsense.”
“But they mustn’t forget their place or the hierarchy of respect.”
Long Xiaoxiao said.
“It’s my fault, I’m guilty.”
Elder Ruiyun and Long Nanxun said in unison.
However, Long Xiaoxiao ignored them, turning instead to Chu Feng.
When she looked at Chu Feng, her previously fierce and domineering gaze suddenly turned playful and charming.
Especially her eyes, narrowed into crescent moons, which were utterly captivating.
“Sorry, my dear benefactor, it’s my failure in discipline that’s made a fool of us in front of you.”
Long Xiaoxiao said with a smile.
“It’s not your fault today, Princess. Rather, I’ve let you down.”
“If there’s a next time, I’ll make it up to you.”
Chu Feng spoke, feeling quite guilty.
“Alright, a deal’s a deal, no backing out.”
“I’ll be waiting for you to make it up to me.”
Before speaking, Long Xiaoxiao deliberately stepped closer, standing very near Chu Feng.
This scene left Long Nanxun’s eyes red with envy and stunned the others watching.
However, Long Xiaoxiao didn’t make any further intimate moves, instead continuing to chat with Chu Feng.
Though Long Xiaoxiao was friendly, Chu Feng felt it improper to linger.
After a brief farewell, Chu Feng and Fumo Xin’er left the place.
Long Xiaoxiao was exceptionally gracious, accompanying Long Shengbu to escort Chu Feng and Fumo Xin’er out of the palace complex before turning back.
She even had Long Nanxun and Elder Ruiyun accompany them, likely to ensure they wouldn’t act against Chu Feng and Fumo Xin’er.
“You don’t seem the least bit upset.”
On the way out, Fumo Xin’er looked at Chu Feng and said.
Earlier, Chu Feng had been thoroughly humiliated.
If he had genuinely been outmatched by those two spiritists, that would’ve been one thing.
But being unable to act due to various reasons and then mocked and ridiculed, that was true frustration.
Fumo Xin’er had thought Chu Feng’s mindset would be heavily affected.
Yet, he seemed completely unbothered.
“It’s already happened. Feeling bad won’t help.”
“I believe Senior Long will understand and won’t blame me.”
Chu Feng said.
“You’ve got quite the mindset.”
Fumo Xin’er smiled, but as she spoke, she glanced back at the increasingly distant Long Clan camp.
Chu Feng noticed her backward glance.
He didn’t catch the fleeting chill in Fumo Xin’er’s eyes as she looked back.
Later, Chu Feng and Fumo Xin’er rendezvoused with Long Daozhi.
After recounting the events, Long Daozhi naturally didn’t blame Chu Feng, as he already felt deeply indebted to him.
However, they didn’t leave immediately.
They had arranged to meet Fumo Shaoyu there that day, and, by their calculations, he should arrive soon if all went well.
Chu Feng wanted to meet up with Fumo Shaoyu before returning to the Ancestral Martial Starfield.
But his destination wasn’t the Great Thousand Upper Realm, but the Nine Dragons Upper Realm.
Back when competing for the Ancestral Martial Ten Stars ranking at the Nine Dragons Anomaly Post in the Nine Dragons Upper Realm, Chu Feng and Wuma Shengjie had encountered a mysterious entity deep within the post.
That entity not only stole Chu Feng’s Qilin Egg but also planted a poison in his body.
It had instructed Chu Feng to seek it out after reaching the Supreme Realm.
Though the entity had set a ten-year deadline for Chu Feng to reach the Supreme Realm, Chu Feng had already experienced the potency of the poison within him.
Now that he had reached the Supreme Realm, it was necessary to confront that mysterious entity.
Though he didn’t know its intentions, the poison in his body needed to be resolved, or its next eruption could be truly dangerous.
During the day, everyone gathered together, but at night, they rested separately.
Chu Feng couldn’t resist entering his spirit space.
Both Queen-sama and Yusha were cultivating with their eyes closed.
“I say, you two little ancestors, you’ve been cultivating for quite a while.”
“If either of you had been awake today, I wouldn’t have been so humiliated.”
Chu Feng sighed helplessly.
Of course, his words were merely a lament.
When Yusha began her seclusion, her cultivation was only at the early Venerable stage.
Queen-sama’s cultivation was even weaker when she entered seclusion.
Though they had been in seclusion for a long time, Chu Feng couldn’t expect them to break through to the Supreme Realm upon emerging, could he?
That would be far too exaggerated.
So, even if they hadn’t been in seclusion, Chu Feng felt he wouldn’t have matched Yue Yang in a spirit contest today.
That black fatty, despite his unattractive appearance, had some skill.
After all, Asura spirit beings were proud by nature, and for a first-grade Supreme Realm Asura spirit to serve him was no small feat.
However, Chu Feng only glanced at Queen-sama and Yusha, not disturbing them.
Seclusion was a delicate matter.
Chu Feng wouldn’t disrupt them just for his own needs.
His main purpose for entering the spirit space was the Heavenly Master’s Whisk.
“Today, I was humiliated because of you.”
“I hope you won’t let me down.”
Chu Feng said, looking at the Heavenly Master’s Whisk.
After speaking, he examined it further, but finding no clues, he left the spirit space.
Instead of resting, Chu Feng took out some scrolls and began studying them intently.
He had already reached the Supreme Realm.
But his martial techniques hadn’t been updated in a long time.
His strongest technique was still the first-stage Supreme Forbidden Heavenly Mechanism Seal, given to him by Old Daoist Ox-Nose.
Previously, at the Purple Star Hall, Chu Feng had obtained their sect’s signature martial technique, the third-stage Supreme Forbidden Fire Meteor.
This time, in the Endless Abyss, Chu Feng had also gained much.
From Bloodmist Heavenly Sovereign and the four spiritists, he acquired not only spirit cultivation techniques and array formation treasures and materials, but also Supreme Forbidden martial techniques.
Chu Feng wanted to master these techniques as soon as possible.
After all, the Holy Light Galaxy was vast.
He would inevitably encounter evenly matched opponents in the future.
Without powerful martial techniques to counter them, he would surely be at a disadvantage.
Unbeknownst to Chu Feng, Fumo Xin’er wasn’t resting in her room…
