It felt surreal to see an old man inside a hut in this land of death, especially when he was the first clan master of the Feng.
After carefully listening to Feng Feiyun’s explanation, the old man finally got the gist of the story.
“Truly shameless, the clan actually had these pieces of trash, fearing the Yin Gou Clan and sacrificing their own. Completely shameless!” Feng Mo twirled the beard on his chin with his eyes glaring. The initially gentle old man has become sharp.
He was strolling around the hut before suddenly flas.h.i.+ng and appearing next to Feng Feiyun then grabbed Feiyun’s wrist.
He nodded with a sigh: “Yes, first-level Heaven’s Mandate, Grand Historical Genius.”
He let go of Feiyun’s wrist and noticed the gray strands of hair on his forehead. His face grimaced as he wondered why this youth became so feeble before his age?
He suddenly loosened Feiyun’s robe and stared at Feiyun’s muscular chest. There was an evil mark there covering half of it. It was trying to invade the boy’s heart.
His hollowed eyes narrowed with shock: “Yama’s Decay Blood. No wonder why you are so weak despite having such great talents.”
Feiyun was slightly moved and hurriedly said: “Senior, do you know how to cure this poisonous blood?”
Feiyun didn’t call him ancestor but senior instead. The old man clearly didn’t like this address, evident by his expression. However, Feiyun had been expelled from the clan so he naturally wouldn’t call the old man, ancestor.
The old man sighed and shook his head: “There is no antidote for Yama’s Blood in this world. It is already amazing that you can live till now.”
A tinge of disappointment rose on Feiyun’s face but this was within expectation. If there was really a cure for Yama’s Blood, it wouldn’t be feared by so many great masters.
Life, death, and wealth were up to fate.
“Cough!” Feiyun looked at the broken corpse hanging on the Daomization Tree. He had many questions but he didn’t ask them. Instead, he said: “The Feng Clan is suffering an existential crisis, may I ask if you plan to go and help them, senior?”
The old man replied: “I already knew the clan would face something like this. After the crisis, it shall soar like a star. I have been waiting for too long now, it is time to come out.”
His eyes bemoaned the state of the universe and pitied the fate of his clan as he stood quietly outside of the hut. However, without any warning, he saw the beauty standing behind Feng Feiyun. A sharp glint came from his eyes as he uttered: “A non-Feng member cannot enter the ancestral ground. Death to all intruders.”
Xiangcen was already shocked. The first master of the Feng was still alive and has been staying in their tomb. Who knows how powerful he was now?
When a character of this magnitude came out, perhaps all of the experts of the Seventh Hall working together wouldn’t be able to stop him.
She naturally couldn’t be as nonchalant as Feng Feiyun and dropped to the ground while trembling: “Feng Feiyun is not a Feng member either. He has to die as well.”
The quick-witted woman noticed that the old man had taken a liking to Feng Feiyun and definitely wouldn’t kill him. Thus, she tried this particular route.
The old man responded: “He is not one now but once I come out, he shall return to the Feng. A talent like this can’t be expelled from the clan by those worthless descendants. Without my agreement, he is still part of the Feng.”
With that, he smiled at Feiyun with a profound stare.
Feiyun bravely met his eyes without faltering. He was speculating the old man’s intention. The guy clearly knew that he was on the verge of death yet still valued him? Could it be that the old man knew how to cure the poison but just haven’t told him yet?
‘That’s right, the old man only said that there was no antidote, not that I must die.’
This tomb was definitely a forbidden ground. An outsider with all of this knowledge and spreading it after leaving would be a bad thing.
The old man saw Xiangcen’s pale complexion and gently smiled: “Haha. I’m only playing with you, la.s.s. Stand up! A daughter-in-law of the Feng naturally can enter the tomb as well.”
He waved his hand and a force lifted her body up.
This clan master misunderstood after seeing Feiyun bringing Xiangcen to this place. He thought that the two were lovers.
He valued Feiyun so he naturally wanted him to return to the clan. Thus, he scared the girl at first in order to see if Feiyun would want to compromise.
