Ruo Beifeng suppressed the anger in his heart, turned around, and said to Huo Feng in a deep voice, "He voluntarily agreed to this duel. Moreover, he offended you, Dragon Emperor. This is his own fault for being inferior."
Although Ruo Beifeng was trying hard to control himself, Huo Feng could still sense the subtle changes in his words and the flickering flame in his eyes.
Huo Feng quickly smiled and explained, "Please don't misunderstand, Ruo Zongzhu. I have no intention of harming him. As the Dragon Emperor of the dragon clan, I would never make enemies at such a time. As long as I remove what has been inserted into his body, he will be able to move freely."
After thinking for a moment, Ruo Beifeng replied, "Fine, I will tentatively trust you. If anything happens to my son, I will not let the dragon clan go unpunished."
Ruo Beifeng stepped aside, allowing Huo Feng to walk towards Qianxin, who was watching him in fear. As Huo Feng approached Ruo Beifeng, he leaned in and whispered in Huo Feng's ear, "I know you. You must be trying to be with my daughter. However, I advise you not to get your hopes up; do not disrupt the stability of the dragon clan."
Upon hearing this, Huo Feng stood there expressionless, feeling a pang of sorrow in his heart. Was this not enough? He wanted to ask why, but before he could speak, he realized that knowing the reason would change nothing. Huo Feng had thought that having reached a certain level of understanding and status would allow him to pursue his desires, but he never expected to feel so disappointed after all these years of effort and pursuit being suddenly negated.
"Hey! I hope you don't do anything foolish; what you have now is hard-earned," Ruo Beifeng said while looking at the confused Huo Feng.
Understanding his meaning and sensing the disdain directed at him, Huo Feng bitterly smiled and replied to Ruo Beifeng, "I will not give up."
Surprised, Ruo Beifeng was taken aback, but Huo Feng did not engage further and walked over to Qianxin, smiling as he looked at her and mouthed, "Let me help you break free."
"What are you doing? Don't do anything reckless! My dad will kill you!" Qianxin exclaimed in terror as she looked at the smiling face of Huo Feng. To her, every expression and movement from him felt like it could cost her life.
Huo Feng intended to mentally torment this arrogant young master of the sect. He slowly extended his right hand toward Qianxin's chest; instantly, tears streamed down her face as she cried out repeatedly, "You... don't do anything reckless... Dad, come save me! He will kill me! Dad... Dad..."
Both Ruo Beifeng and Li Lie closely monitored every move of Huo Feng. If he attempted any inappropriate actions toward Qianxin, they would certainly strike him down before he succeeded.
At that moment, when Huo Feng's hand was just inches away from Qianxin's chest, a silver-white light of Origin Force suddenly illuminated his fingertips. Following that, they saw the same shimmering light appearing within the bones of Qianxin's limbs, as if responding to the light on Huo Feng's fingers.
Immediately, Huo Feng pressed all five fingers against Qianxin's chest. In an instant, the light of Origin Force within her limbs grew increasingly bright and began moving toward her chest.
The bone-crushing pain caused Qianxin to scream like a slaughtered pig; her face turned red from blood flow but she remained completely unable to move. Meanwhile, although it pained Ruo Beifeng to see her like this, he had no choice but to keep a close watch on Huo Feng, worried about what he might do.
After several minutes passed, the silver energy within the bones of Qianxin's arms had traveled up to her shoulders while that in her legs had reached her hips. At this point, they could clearly see the state of this silver energy: a thread as long as a finger appeared extremely fine—imperceptible to the naked eye or even through an examination with Origin Force. Only with Huo Feng's stellar energy could it be drawn out.
Moments later, all of the origin force within Qianxin's bones returned to Huo Feng, causing her to faint from the pain.
Huo Feng stood up and let out a long sigh. At that moment, Ruo Beifeng could no longer hold back and rushed over, picking up Qianxin and asking Huo Feng, "How is he?"
Huo Feng glanced at Qianxin in Ruo Beifeng's arms and smiled, saying, "He is fine. He just fainted from the pain. He will be alright after some rest."
After that, Huo Feng walked towards the Dragon Clan. When he reached Long You and Long Xiang, Long Xiang looked at Huo Feng eagerly and asked, "Feng'er, are you okay? How is he? We can't let your father propose to him yet; I can't wait to see my future daughter-in-law."
"Mother, did you know that Father calls me that too?" Huo Feng said with slightly moist eyes as he looked at Long Xiang. Then he smiled and continued, "Mother, it's alright. I will definitely let you meet your future daughter-in-law, and we will all live happily together."
Long Xiang immediately guessed the situation and was about to comfort Huo Feng when Huo Feng turned to look towards the Beast Cultivation Sect and Li Huo Sect.
Huo Feng addressed Ruo Beifeng and Li Lie, saying, "Now that the Dragon Clan has just reappeared on the continent, there are many matters to attend to. I hope you can forgive any shortcomings in our hospitality. If you have no urgent matters, please take your leave. In the future, I, Huo Feng, will make sure to visit each of you."
Li Lie responded, "Alright! Alright! Then we will take our leave for now."
With that, Li Lie and Ruo Beifeng took their people from their sects and left. Huo Feng then joined Long Xiang by Zhao Alliance Leader's side to inquire about his father's situation.
············
The commotion caused by Huo Feng did not attract the Azure Gale Sect; however, since the first time Azure Gale Sect came along with the other two sects, their ambitions had already been exposed. Therefore, it was impossible for them to pay less attention to such matters than the other two sects.
When Huo Feng caused the disturbance, Qing Mu Yan, the leader of Azure Gale Sect, did not mobilize like Beast Cultivation Sect and Li Huo Sect but instead immediately gathered the key figures of his sect.
In the conference hall of Azure Gale Sect, Qing Mu Yan looked at more than a dozen elder-level figures beside him and said loudly, "I believe everyone knows why I've called you here."
At this time, an old man with a long beard sitting at the front left of Qing Mu Yan spoke up. He was Azure Water, the Grand Elder of Azure Gale Sect. He stroked his beard and said, "Leader, why don't we go see what the Dragon Clan is up to? If something happens, won't we seem very passive?"
"I gathered everyone here for this reason," Qing Mu Yan replied, his cold gaze sweeping over everyone present before continuing, "You should not have forgotten that our ancestors were killed by the Dragon Clan along with those of Beast Cultivation Sect and Li Huo Sect. Afterward, they hid away for many years. Now they have reappeared; what do you all think?"
Upon hearing Qing Mu Yan's words, a kind-looking middle-aged man sitting on the right side spoke up. He was Second Elder Qinghui and said calmly, "Leader, what do Ruo Zongzhu and Li Zongzhu plan to do?"
Qing Mu Yan glanced at him and continued, "This is our sect's own matter; they seem to have forgotten the disasters suffered by their ancestors."
At this moment, several people began discussing among themselves. When their discussion reached a point of conclusion, Qing Mu Yan gently tapped on the table, causing the entire conference hall to fall silent.
Qing Mu Yan began, "The Dragon Clan has not shown itself for so many years, and their appearance this time must have a purpose. Therefore, we cannot be as optimistic as they are; we cannot just sit and wait for our doom."
Second Elder Qinghui looked at Qing Mu Yan and asked, "What does the Sect Leader have in mind? Do you plan to take any precautionary measures?"
Qing Mu Yan lightly tapped his fingers on the table, a habitual action he took when making important decisions. While tapping, he said, "Indeed, I have an idea. However, it involves not just defense but also taking the initiative to catch them off guard. They have just appeared and have yet to establish a foothold; this is the best opportunity."
The Elder's face immediately wrinkled with concern. "Sect Leader, how can we alone deal with the entire Dragon Clan? Wouldn't this severely deplete our Sect's strength?"
"For the sake of long-term peace, we must do this. Moreover, the greater the loss, the unimaginable returns we may gain." Qing Mu Yan stood up from his seat and walked to a large mural depicting dragon-slaying that hung behind him. "Our ancestors fought against the Dragon Clan for so long and have gained some experience. Furthermore, our ancestor Qinglingfei discovered certain patterns. This secret has been passed down secretly among our Sect Leaders for generations, even the Beast Cultivation Sect and Li Huo Sect are unaware of it. Therefore, we must seize this opportunity to take down the Dragon Clan in one fell swoop. Once we do that, we can domesticate them as our Contract Beasts, and then our family will dominate."
When Qing Mu Yan spoke of this secret, everyone present was taken aback, except for the much older Elder and the calm Second Elder who could still maintain their composure.
Just as Qing Mu Yan was about to reveal this secret to the Elders of the Sect, the door of the conference hall suddenly crashed open with a loud bang. A young man tumbled into the hall.
This made Qing Mu Yan's eyes blaze with anger as he shouted, "You fool! Do you want to die? Don't you know that this hall is off-limits? Someone, drag him out and deal with him!"
The young man seemed completely oblivious to Qing Mu Yan's threat and gasped for breath as he said, "Wait... wait! Sect Leader, it's bad! A strange magical beast has come outside, and we can't stop it. Many people from our Sect have been frozen by its icy mist!"
