The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal

Chapter 405: Chapter 405: Heading to the County King’s Manor, Shu Hongyu Appears
 

Within the Divine Wind Sword Sect.

The Great Elder, upon hearing the news, took a sharp breath and hurriedly sprinted toward the Black Stone Wasteland, intending to relay the message to the old Sect Master of the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect and seek his decision.

A certain ancient city.

The Vice Temple Master of the Blood Demon Hall hid in this place.

“What a Misty Sect, with two Great Powers in a single sect, simply terrifying. Even if a Great Power from our Blood Demon Hall’s main temple were to come personally, they might not be absolutely certain to suppress them.”

The Vice Temple Master’s expression was grave.

He heard that Ye Feng and his group were heading to County King City and originally planned to sneak an attack, going directly to Misty Peak.

But then he thought, if all the disciples and members of Misty Sect had gone to Misty Peak, even if he could break into the sect, what could he really achieve?

Steal a loneliness?

Right!

Destroy the Spirit Vein, seize the Core Nucleus!

Thinking this, the Vice Temple Master’s eyes flickered with murderous intent. He immediately rushed toward Misty Peak, ready to sneak in at night and snatch the Spiritual Vein Core, shattering the four great mountains of Misty Sect.

Even Whitefloat City, he intended to annihilate!

“Hehehe, Ye Feng, even if you are a Divine Origin Realm Great Power, what of it? From tens of thousands of miles away, could you still kill your way back?”

The Vice Temple Master laughed with a grim sneer.

…

At this moment, it was already night.

Ye Feng, along with his disciples, was riding the Spirit Snake Flying Boat, heading to County King’s Manor, hundreds of miles away.

County King City stretched for hundreds and thousands of miles, a large city composed of mountains, lakes, manors, sects, noble families, and many other complex powers intertwined, with a territory larger than some minor countries.

Soon, the Spirit Snake Flying Boat docked in front of a manor.

Whoosh!

Ye Feng retracted the Spirit Snake Flying Boat, and behind him were Gong Qingqiu and Li Zilong, two Elders; following behind them was Chu Yun’er, a Steward veiled with light gauze.

Right after that came Shi Lei, Mo Ying, and other First and Second-generation Disciples, as well as Mountain Guardian Spirit Beasts such as Fox Da Hong and Iron Claw Dragon Eagles.

Except for Brother Flathead and the Thousand-Year Ancient Pine, everyone else had arrived.

“Sect Master, today I have already informed ‘Yue’er’, the maid of County King’s Manor, about our plan to honor the appointment. Now, they should be coming out soon,” Gong Qingqiu said, pointing to the firmly closed gates of the manor.

Creak!

The manor’s gates suddenly opened, and a young woman in a moon-white long dress with a graceful figure walked out.

Behind her followed dozens of young maids.

They split to stand on both sides, bending their waists slightly to the side, and uniformly gestured “please” with their hands.

“Welcome, honord seniors from Misty Sect, to County King’s Manor!”

Maid Yue’er smiled warmly.

She looked at Lei Xiaohu and the others who originally belonged to County King’s Manor and saw that they had all changed into the clean uniforms of Misty Sect disciples, standing neatly in the ranks of the Second-generation Disciples.

After the blessing of Heavenly Dew, their cultivation levels had all sur soared.

“Sect Master Ye, the Commandery Princess is already waiting in the banquet hall for everyone. Please follow me,” said Maid Yue’er, leading the way.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Rustle!

The remaining dozens of maids immediately took out baskets from their storage rings, tossing out fragrant petals, as well as beautiful young women playing various musical instruments, dancing along the way with captivating movements.

“This welcome ceremony…”

Ye Feng’s expression was odd.

One would think he was going to a Goulan to listen to music if they didn’t know any better!

Inside a large banquet hall that was magnificently decorated with dragon and phoenix carvings,

Ye Feng finally saw the true face of the Commandery Princess.

It was a woman.

She was tall, her face veiled, and beneath her arched willow-leaf eyebrows were a pair of intelligent and beautiful eyes.

The Commandery Princess did not have a high cultivation level.

Even with the purification of the Heavenly Dew and the support of the vast cultivation resources of the County King’s Mansion, she had only reached the peak of the third layer of the Element Gathering Realm.

Yet, there was a subtle aura of regal grace emanating from her.

“Eh!”

Upon seeing the Commandery Princess, Shi Lei, Huo Yunjie, and Li Jiaojiao all looked surprised, feeling that the woman looked familiar, as if they had seen her and even lived with her before.

“You finally deigned to show yourself.”

Mo Ying saw the Commandery Princess, her lips beneath the black veil curling slightly upward.

“I am the Commandery Princess, Shu Hongyu. Welcome to the arrival of everyone from Misty Sect!”

The woman gently took off the veil from her face, revealing a beautiful young visage, with shallow dimples on her cheeks when she smiled.

“Hongyu?”

“You’re actually the Commandery Princess?”

At the moment the Commandery Princess revealed her true identity, Shi Lei, Huo Yunjie, and Li Jiaojiao were all greatly shocked, their eyes widening in disbelief.

The daughter of the Commandery Prince turned out to be Shu Hongyu.

A former fifth disciple of Misty Sect!

Their hearts were shaken.

Ye Feng looked at Shu Hongyu and listened to the words of Shi Lei and the others, filled with shock, finally understanding the situation.

“So it turns out that the distinguished daughter of the Commandery Prince of the County King City, the current Commandery Princess, was once the fifth disciple who left our Misty Sect,” Ye Feng said solemnly.

To say that this news was not shocking would be impossible.

Although he did not know why Shu Hongyu left the sect, regardless of the reason, the fact that she was not an enemy and was now hosting a banquet for the entire Misty Sect meant she harbored good intentions.

“You flatter me too much, Sect Leader. In front of you, I am just a young lady from a wealthy family with ordinary talent and mediocre cultivation,” Shu Hongyu said softly.

Even though she was the daughter of the Commandery Prince, the person before her was Ye Feng, a great power at the Divine Origin Realm level, with an equally terrifying Protector Fox Consort Feifei under his command.

Even if her father advanced to the Divine Origin Realm, he would still not be enough compared to these two veteran great powers.

“An ordinary young lady from a wealthy family?” Ye Feng’s mouth twitched at Shu Hongyu’s words. “Someone who will inherit the entire County King City is considered ordinary?”

Shu Hongyu let out a light sigh, “If it wasn’t for the responsibility of inheriting the position of the future Commandery Prince, why would Hongyu have left the sect? If given a choice, I would prefer to continue cultivating in Misty Sect rather than inherit a fortune of billions.”

Upon hearing this, the people around all wore faces full of surprise.

Shu Hongyu was once a disciple of the Misty Sect?

This news was unheard of!

“No wonder the Commandery Princess asked me to take extra care of Misty Sect. It turns out she used to be a member of this sect,” Maid Yue’er covered her lips with her hand, her eyes full of amazement.

Ye Feng did not speak.

He asked in his heart, “Does Shu Hongyu meet the criteria for joining our sect?”

The System was silent and did not answer.

Ye Feng stroked his chin, looked at Shu Hongyu, and said, “Let’s not dwell on these old events. You invited us here as guests not just to reminisce, right? There must be some other purpose.”

“No, it is just to reminisce,” Shu Hongyu shook her head.

Initially, her plan was to reveal her identity at this banquet and then offer help to Ye Feng as the Commandery Princess, should he need it.

But who knew that Ye Feng would be so formidable?

He simply did not need her help.

On the contrary, she might need Ye Feng’s help.

This banquet, naturally turned into nothing more than a simple meal.

“Everyone, please take your seats!”

Shu Hongyu composed herself and sat in the seat of honor, while Ye Feng sat in the principal guest seat. The rest were seated according to their status, spread across several dozen tables.

Soon, the dishes were served.

Li Jiaojiao focused on the Spirit Dishes on the table, planning to study them and try making them herself once the Demon Slaying Conference was over.

“Senior Sister Jiaojiao, this is for you.”

Shu Hongyu took out an ancient book titled “Advancement of Spiritual Cooking” and handed it to Li Jiaojiao. “I heard that you like the art of spiritual cooking, so I am giving this book to you.”

“Thank you, Hongyu… Commandery Princess,” Li Jiaojiao almost called her “junior sister,” but since Shu Hongyu had left the Misty Sect, she quickly changed it to “Commandery Princess.”

Hearing this, Shu Hongyu looked downhearted.

If she could choose, she would rather not inherit a fortune of billions and would prefer to stay in the Misty Sect.

The Misty Sect now was much better than the County King City.

It’s just a pity!

Heaven did not comply with her wishes, and she had to inherit a fortune of billions…

“Come, come, come, it’s been a long time, let’s toast together!” Sensing the awkward atmosphere, Shi Lei promptly raised his wine cup.

As the senior brother, he was good at adjusting the mood.

The banquet continued.

Thousands of miles away.

A bright moon hung high in the sky, casting silvery moonlight down onto the earth, as though covering it with a sheer veil.

Above the Fuyun Gloomy Forest.

The Blood Demon Hall Branch Master hovered in the air, looking at Misty Sect shrouded in smoky clouds. With a wave of his hand, he issued a dull, chilling command.

“Charge and destroy Misty Peak!”

The next moment, hundreds of figures soared into the sky, carrying terrifying murderous intent, like a torrent charging towards Misty Peak.

The deafening battle cries immediately caught the attention of Brother Flathead, the Thousand-Year Ancient Pine, and many cultivators from Whitefloat City.

“Wow!”

Brother Flathead stood up, staring angrily and eagerly at the several hundred enemies approaching, his eyes filled with rage and battle spirit.

And… excitement!
