Chapter 1135: Chapter 1136: Feeng Family Council! (Part 2)
“Bang!”
The door was slammed shut by Tuoba Yan, and Ling Feng shook his head helplessly. This woman changed her face as quickly as flipping a page; it was truly perplexing.
He raised his palm, and between his fingers was a smudge of black ash, the remains left after pinching the Soul-Expelling Worm to pieces.
“Such an evil and sinister insect was supposed to have gone extinct a millennium ago. Who on earth is this Tianluo Ancestor?”
Ling Feng’s gaze glinted coldly as he touched his chin in thought, “What secret is Second Lady Feeng hiding, that the Tianluo Ancestor would go to such lengths to obtain her…”
“Enough, enough, these matters will eventually come to light.”
Ling Feng shook his head as a wave of fatigue hit him. After all, pulling the Soul-Expelling Worm from the Feeng Family Patriarch’s Sea of Consciousness had consumed too much Spiritual Power, so for now, he should take a brief rest to replenish his energy.
A day passed swiftly.
The next day, the “gravely ill” Family Head Feeng unexpectedly took the initiative to summon all Feeng Family Elders and direct descendants to convene a meeting in the main hall.
“What does the Family Head intend with this? He’s so sick, yet he still goes through the trouble of assembling everyone.”
Some Feeng Family Disciples who were unaware of the truth only knew that the Family Head suddenly fell ill and entrusted power to “the future son-in-law.” Coupled with the support from some elders, the Feeng Family was completely under the control of that Tiejian Sect Leader.
But now, after more than ten days without appearing before clansmen, the Family Head took the initiative to summon all clansmen, making people faintly feel that something significant might happen within the Feeng Family.
“I always felt it was absurd for the Family Head to suddenly have a Sect Leader from the Tiejian Sect act as the interim leader. What is a mere Tiejian Sect?”
A young disciple expressed his indignation.
“Shhh…”
A slightly older clansman immediately pulled the young man aside, “You, do you want to die? If those people from the Tiejian Sect hear you, no one will be able to save you!”
“Hmph, Tiejian Sect, Tiejian Sect, it’s always Tiejian Sect. When was it ever time for outsiders to rule our Feeng Family?”
The young disciple clenched his fist, his face showing intense resentment.
“Sigh, what can be done? Those Great Elders inexplicably supported the interim leader; do you really want to go against the elders?”
“What a mess, really fucked up!”
The young generation of Feeng Family Disciples sighed deeply. Ever since the interim leader took over, life for the Feeng Family Members had been far from easy.
At this moment, in a corner of the main hall, Ling Feng crossed his arms, leaning against a pillar, and listened lazily to the chatter of the Feeng Family Disciples. It was clear that these disciples had some spirit, but unfortunately, with the Feeng Family Elders being controlled, they were powerless.
Tuoba Yan, Fatty Huang, and Lan Yingying stood beside Ling Feng, who was about to witness today’s drama.
The Tiejian Sect Leader probably never imagined that someone could extract the Soul-Expelling Worm from the Feeng Family Patriarch and that there could be a miraculous creature like the Vermilion Ice Worm capable of resolving the internal poison of the Patriarch in such a short time.
Soon, the father and daughter of the Feeng family finally walked up to the Patriarch’s seat in the main hall under the gaze of everyone.
A blue robe and a long sword.
With every step exuding an aura of Fung Yun, poised and dignified, chest held high, under the astonished gaze of the Feeng Family Members, the high-spirited Clan Leader with world-defining Divine Skills was finally back!
A pair of eyes flashed with authority, devoid of anger yet imposing, standing before the Patriarch’s seat, and sweeping his gaze over all the Feeng Family Members.
“Has the Patriarch… the Patriarch recovered?”
“That’s great, haha, now it seems that the Patriarch can regain power, to hell with the Iron Sword Gang, I’ve had enough!”
Amidst the discussions, the Feeng Family Patriarch slightly raised his hand, prompting all the Feeng Family Disciples to immediately shut their mouths, their eager eyes fixed on the Patriarch who led the Feeng Family to glory.
He’s back; the Feeng Family can rise again!
“Fellow clansmen, today I gather you here to discuss a crucial matter!”
The Patriarch suppressed the intense Killing Intent within, coldly stating, “In recent days, this Patriarch was controlled by a vile force, forced to act against his will, resulting in the entire Feeng Family being under the control of Tiejian Sect rebels. Today, this Patriarch intends to root out the traitors and restore the prestige of the Feeng Family!”
“Great!—”
“Great!—”
“Great!—”
The younger generation of Feeng Family Disciples each raised their hands high, cheering enthusiastically.
“Humph, what a Feeng Family Patriarch, you truly aren’t afraid of dying!”
At that moment, an extremely discordant voice was heard from the door, as several Feeng Family Elders escorted the person into the main hall brazenly.
It was none other than the Tiejian Sect Leader, Qi Hongwu!
All the Feeng Family disciples fell silent, glaring intently at this “interim leader” who had thrown the Feeng Family into chaos in just a few days. This old scoundrel ought to have died long ago!
Especially as he dared to covet the most beautiful Second Lady of Feeng Family, making the young members’ displeasure palpable.
This ugly, old rat, should look at his own old face in the mirror, truly shameless!
In an instant, the entire clan, except for those controlled by Qi Hongwu using Soul-Expelling Worms, fixed Qi Hongwu with murderous gazes!
The roars quickly merged into one.
“Root out the traitors, restore prestige!”
“Down with the old scoundrel of Tiejian Sect!”
…
“Just in time!”
The Feeng Family Patriarch’s eyes filled with malice, coldly glaring at Qi Hongwu, hissing, “Qi Hongwu, today, is your death day!”
Still wearing a look of contempt, Qi Hongwu assumed that the Patriarch was forcibly suppressing the Soul-Expelling Worm with some secret technique, sneering, “Old Feeng, seems like you haven’t tasted the pain of the Soul-Expelling bone poison lately!”
As he spoke, Qi Hongwu formed a Hand Formation, chanting incantations.
Usually, the Feeng Family Patriarch would fall into madness from this pain, falling under the control of the Soul-Expelling Worm, but this time, the Patriarch coldly watched him, showing no sign of discomfort.
“This… how can this be!”
Qi Hongwu’s eyelids twitched, finally showing a trace of panic.
That Soul-Expelling Worm was raised by Tianluo Ancestor, only known to his Direct Disciples how to use. How could there be someone able to remove the Soul-Expelling Worm from the Patriarch?
Finally, Qi Hongwu’s gaze shifted sharply to Ling Feng in the corner, full of rage, shouting coldly, “Kid, you did this?”
“Hehe!”
Ling Feng stepped forward, smiling faintly, “Apologies, Green Hat Sect Leader, the good deeds I’ve done in my life are countless—not sure which one you’re referring to?”
