“Mother, we cannot just ignore Chu Feng.”
Chu Lingxi said to Gu Mingyuan with great anxiety.
She had also received Chu Feng’s secret transmission.
No matter who it was, upon suddenly receiving such a message from Chu Feng, they would realise that he might be in danger.
From the current situation, the only ones likely to pose a threat to Chu Feng were the Saint Light Clan.
But what kind of existence was the Saint Light Clan?
They were the overlords of the Saint Light Galaxy. If they truly intended to make things difficult for Chu Feng, he would be facing a grave calamity.
Yet given Chu Lingxi’s relationship with Chu Feng, even knowing they were an untouchable power, she would never stand by and watch him die.
“Lingxi, do not panic. Perhaps Chu Feng will be fine. After all, he only asked us to leave temporarily.”
“Chu Feng is different from you. He has experienced many things, so he acts with greater caution.”
“I think he is simply afraid that the Saint Light Clan might view him as a threat and act against him. But he cannot be certain. It is just suspicion, or perhaps his own worry.”
“So by asking us to leave first, he is only taking precautions.”
Although Gu Mingyuan tried to comfort Chu Lingxi in this way, her own heart was filled with unease.
The Saint Light Clan was far too powerful, like a sky pressing down overhead, an existence they could never hope to overcome.
Despite Chu Feng’s astonishingly rapid growth, he was still a junior.
How could he contend with the Saint Light Clan?
If the Saint Light Clan truly intended to deal with Chu Feng, it would undoubtedly become a nightmare.
Afterwards, Gu Mingyuan and Long Daozhi discussed the matter.
They felt that if Chu Feng truly encountered trouble, it was absolutely not something they could resolve in their current state.
Acting rashly would only cause more problems for Chu Feng. Therefore, in the end, they decided to heed Chu Feng’s words and leave temporarily for now.
If, in the future, there turned out to be no conflict between Chu Feng and the Saint Light Clan, they could return.
Thus, Long Daozhi led the people of the Ancestral Martial Dragon City away, while Gu Mingyuan took the people of the Ten Thousand Provinces Ancient Clan with her, immediately departing the Storm World.
…
In truth, Chu Feng could not be certain whether the Saint Light Clan intended him harm.
He was genuinely just preparing for the worst.
After all, the Saint Light Clan were the overlords of the Saint Light Galaxy.
Overlord forces of this kind often shared one flaw: they would eliminate any existence that threatened their position.
But this was merely Chu Feng’s speculation. He could not determine what sort of clan the Saint Light Clan truly was.
In fact, Chu Feng also felt that he was probably overthinking it.
Especially now, after arriving with the others at the Saint Light Clan’s encampment in the Storm World, the Saint Light Clan had made proper arrangements for Chu Feng.
He was placed alone in a luxurious palace to rest.
Inside the palace, there were servants to attend him, and outside, guards from the Saint Light Clan stood watch.
Whether the servants or the guards, their attitude towards Chu Feng was extremely friendly.
Such behaviour did not seem like that of people planning to deal with him.
In fact, throughout the journey, Saint Light Xuanye had been chatting with Chu Feng, displaying an attitude of great appreciation.
To be honest, Chu Feng’s impression of Saint Light Xuanye was rather favourable.
Because Saint Light Xuanye, as the strongest in the Saint Light Galaxy, did not carry that lofty, domineering air of looking down on all others. At least towards Chu Feng, he was very kind and approachable.
Based on Chu Feng’s experience, powerful figures who were kind and approachable were often truly good people.
After a brief rest, Chu Feng rejoined Long Xiaoxiao and the others.
The Saint Light Clan held a lavish banquet for Chu Feng and the other juniors.
Not only could those juniors who had placed in the Strongest Junior Championship attend, but major figures within the Saint Light Galaxy, such as the Long Clan chief and the Monstrous Demon Sacred Hall lord, were all present.
The atmosphere at the banquet was excellent, and it lasted a full ten days and nights.
After the banquet ended, the other juniors received the prizes prepared for them by the Saint Light Clan and departed.
But for those ranked in the top ten, such as Chu Feng, Long Xiaoxiao, and Yu Lie, their rewards were different.
Thus, they needed to remain here a while longer.
Once the Saint Light Clan had prepared the rewards, they would personally deliver them.
During his time in the Saint Light Clan’s encampment, after ten days and nights of drinking and merrymaking, Chu Feng’s wariness towards the Saint Light Clan eased somewhat. Yet he did not let his guard down completely.
“I hope I am just overthinking it.”
Chu Feng could only comfort himself in this way.
Because how the Saint Light Clan viewed him, and how they intended to treat him, was not something Chu Feng could decide.
But whether he was overthinking it or not, an answer would soon come.
He knew that members of the Saint Light Clan had already gone to prepare the Saint Light Bloodline Water for him.
The Saint Light Bloodline Water was the prize for first place in this Strongest Junior Championship.
Even for the Saint Light Clan, the Saint Light Bloodline Water was an extremely precious cultivation resource.
Chu Feng felt that if the Saint Light Clan truly saw him as a thorn in their side, they would never hand over the genuine Saint Light Bloodline Water to him.
Although, even if they did give him the real thing, it would not prove they definitely had no intention of dealing with him.
At the very least, the likelihood of them acting against him would be greatly reduced.
“Speaking of which, what exactly is going on with this Nian Tian True Qi inside me?”
While waiting for the reward to arrive, Chu Feng once again examined his body.
Over these past ten days, Chu Feng had lost count of how many times he had inspected himself.
The reason he kept checking was because he knew the Nian Tian True Qi within him was different from that of others.
Long Xiaoxiao, Yu Lie, and the rest had also obtained large amounts of Nian Tian True Qi.
And theirs could be directly used for cultivation.
But Chu Feng’s could not.
Although the Nian Tian True Qi in Chu Feng’s body was the most vast and majestic, it formed a great formation coiled within him.
Unless he could break it, this immense Nian Tian True Qi could not be utilised by Chu Feng at all.
