The leader of the cultivation alliance has a crush on me.

"I'm so hungry." Song Ke clutched her stomach, her eyes darting around.

"I don't know if the people here have a kitchen or anything to eat."

Before leaving, Song Ke glanced back at Feng Xun's room one last time. She didn't hear any strange noises, which meant that Feng Xun must be asleep.

She got up and walked around. After a while, she felt like she knew everything. Of course, it wasn't because she had a good memory, but because she had walked so many places.

The next day, Song Ke was still asleep in the kitchen when she heard a commotion outside.

"What should we do? With the alliance leader in this state, how can we possibly be a match for him?"

"No matter what, the Alliance Leader was injured because of us. Now that the Alliance Leader is in trouble, we naturally cannot back down."

"That's right. We've been up here for so many years, and we haven't learned anything for nothing. If Qi Feng dares to attack us, we'll risk our lives to kill him by self-destruction."

"That's all the guts he has. In the past, when our alliance leader was doing well, he would always be shouting and clamoring at the foot of the mountain. Now, he only dares to come up to the Suspended Palace to provoke us because our alliance leader is injured."

"Pah, who are you trying to impress with such a show of power?"

The group, cursing and swearing, headed towards the square with their weapons. Song Ke followed behind, watching with a surprised expression. She hadn't expected that this alliance leader held such a high position in everyone's hearts.

It's just a pity that now he's as dull as a puppet.

They said yesterday not to reveal Feng Xun's injury, so why are they coming to our door today, and so early in the morning?

Something fishy.

However, Song Ke doesn't remember who the people in Xuanshang Palace are, so naturally she doesn't know if there are any spies.

She followed them to the square, but as expected, she didn't see Feng Xun. Instead, she saw several older people standing at the front, facing off against a large group of oddly shaped and gaudy-dressed creatures, who were hard to tell if they were human or monsters.

A large vehicle floated in the air at the very front of them, pulled by four statues. Qi Feng, sitting in the center, leaned back lazily, looking rather frivolous, with a clear hint of contempt and mockery on his lips. Two protectors, a man and a woman, stood on either side of him.

The man was named Chi Wen. He had faintly visible, shimmering blue scales the size of a fingernail on his forehead. His deep-set eyes and brows gave him a sinister appearance.

The woman's name was Tian Shu, a beautiful fox spirit. It was said that she was kicked out of the fox clan for disturbing their treasure, and somehow she ended up in the Luo You Alliance.

Seeing Qi Feng's arrogant and swaggering demeanor, Song Yansong's face darkened, and he began to challenge him in a loud and authoritative voice.

"Qi Feng, you've really gone too far! What do you think this Xuanshang Palace is? How dare you run wild here?"

Rong Xiu has always been the chief steward of Xuanshang Palace. He usually manages and arranges things here. He is also Feng Xun's first disciple. He looks to be only about twenty years old, but he is already several hundred years old and his cultivation level is not low.

His face was filled with clear hatred: "Qi Feng, we haven't settled the score for you injuring my master before, and you still dare to come here to cause trouble."

Qi Feng listened, still with that lazy, contemptuous attitude. He glanced at the crowd and said arrogantly, "Tsk tsk tsk, why isn't Alliance Leader Feng here today? In the past, when he heard the news of my arrival, he always appeared at the front."

"Or perhaps our last battle severely damaged him, making him unable to even come out and meet us?"

Rong Ling was also Feng Xun's disciple. He and Rong Xiu were brothers. When he heard Qi Feng's words, he was also furious: "What nonsense are you talking about? My master is perfectly fine. If you fight him, you'll be the one who gets hurt. He's currently in seclusion preparing to face the tribulation."

"Hahahaha, that's hilarious! You're not saying that Alliance Leader Feng is about to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, are you? Look at the world, in the last few hundred years, has anyone ever broken through?"

"Or do you really believe that your alliance leader is exceptionally talented and blessed with extraordinary abilities, capable of breaking this rule?"

Tian Shu scoffed, then formed a hand seal and, without hesitation, decisively set up an array to pull everyone in the square into it.

Song Ke also smelled an unusual fragrance. She didn't know what kind of formation it was, but she subconsciously shut down her five senses. Before she could act, she heard Chu Lan curse, "That damned fox is using this trick again."

Seeing that the people below had also set up the Seven Star Formation, Chi Wen hurriedly stepped in to help, saying to Qi Feng, "Alliance Leader, leave this to me and Tian Shu."

Qi Feng looked at the resistance of the crowd below, smiled with satisfaction, suddenly stood up, and flew straight towards Feng Xun's residence in a few steps. The crowd could only see the afterimage left behind him.

Rong Xiu hurriedly said, "Oh no, he went to Master's residence."

Song Yansong wasn't worried about anything else, but he was afraid that Qi Feng was cunning and would discover that Feng Xun was acting strangely and trick him into joining his side. If that happened, who in the entire Cultivation Alliance could withstand him?

He quickly formed hand seals and chanted incantations. Soon, a golden mark in the shape of a phoenix appeared in front of him. Then, a phoenix cry rang out, and the phoenix seemed to come alive as it flew straight towards Tian Shu, who was casting the spell.

Before Tian Shu could react, Song Yansong shoved Rong Ling and said, "Go find the alliance leader, but whatever you do, make sure he doesn't run into Qi Feng."

Despite her fiery temper, Rong Ling was exceptionally obedient. After listening, she nodded without hesitation and headed towards Feng Xun's residence.

Tian Shu wasn't alarmed by the phoenix that was attacking him. Instead, he smiled confidently and said with eagerness, "I just refined a treasure a few days ago, so let me give it a try."

As soon as she finished speaking, her hand gestures changed rapidly. In a short while, many tails appeared behind her, spreading out in a fan shape, rainbow-colored, and attacking the phoenix bird simultaneously.

When Song Ke saw Qi Feng heading towards Feng Xun, she subconsciously followed him. She ran ahead of Rong Ling, but Rong Ling couldn't see her.

As he ran, he shouted, "Qi Feng, you old bastard, you know you can't beat my master but you still invite shame upon yourself. I've never seen such a shameless person as you."

"What's wrong? My master hasn't beaten you up in a few days, are you itching for a beating?"

"Seriously, I've never seen anyone come to my door begging to get beaten up."

He thought that provoking Qi Feng like this would make him turn around and cause trouble for him, but who knew that he ignored him completely and ended up outside Feng Xun's territory.

Fortunately, Feng Xun's courtyard was protected by a barrier, making it impossible for ordinary people to enter.

Rong Ling watched as Qi Feng was bounced back by the barrier, and was about to smile triumphantly when Qi Feng broke the barrier in just two moves.

"This barrier thinks it can stop me? It's overestimating itself."

Rong Ling was in a hurry to run away. He quickly conjured a sword and pointed it at Qi Feng, his face full of fearlessness: "Qi Feng, if you dare to touch my master, I will take your life."

Qi Feng looked at Rong Ling with a mocking expression: "You really aren't afraid of death? Even your master doesn't have the ability to take my life, let alone you?"

After saying that, he waved his hand and immediately launched an attack. Rong Ling quickly raised and released the sword in his hand, and spun his palm in front of him. The sword was also controlled to spin in a circle, and instantly the sword light transformed into a barrier, blocking his way.

The attack wasn't stopped by the barrier; it just slowed down slightly but still struck Rong Ling, sending him flying.

Song Ke turned her head and saw this scene. She looked anxious, but she was helpless because she had no cultivation. She had only practiced the mental cultivation method for one night and was completely powerless.

She looked helpless. Why did they send such a rookie? The opponent was the ultimate boss!

But the one inside didn't move either. It was unclear whether he hadn't heard or had heard but didn't want to get involved. Seeing that Qi Feng was about to make a second move, Song Ke instinctively rushed towards Rong Ling without thinking or caring who could see her.

I'll shield him.
