I, a spoiled young master, conquered the Crown Princess right from the start!

Then, Chu Feng slowly concealed his aura, his deep eyes, as if containing the stars and the sea, fell on the purple figure standing quietly not far away.

Tuoba Yan'er still stood there, like a perfect jade sculpture, but her cold eyes were staring at him without blinking, and the emotions contained within them were extremely complex.

"Who exactly are you?"

In the end, she spoke first, her voice still cold, but with a tremor that she herself was unaware of.

Upon hearing this, Chu Feng's lips curled into a slight smile as he strode towards her, a playful glint in his eyes: "What? Interested in me?"

Tuoba Yan'er felt a little uncomfortable under his aggressive gaze and subconsciously took half a step back. Then, as if she felt that her reaction was a bit inappropriate, she forced herself to straighten her chest and snorted coldly.

"I just want to know, is it true that your father said you are the only hope to break the curse on my witch clan's bloodline?"

"A bloodline curse?" Chu Feng raised an eyebrow, asking with interest, "Tell me what exactly happened?"

Tuoba Yan'er was silent for a moment, as if she was organizing her thoughts, or perhaps recalling that heavy period of history.

After a long silence, she finally spoke softly.

"In ancient times, my Wu clan was one of the most powerful races in the world, with strong bodies and divine bloodlines. But our strength also attracted covetousness. There was an unparalleled expert who coveted the bloodline of my Wu clan and wanted to seize and refine it."

"Our ancestors naturally refused, and the entire clan waged an earth-shattering war against him. That battle caused the heavens and earth to shatter and the sun and moon to lose their light. In the end, the Wu clan sacrificed most of its members to severely wound that powerful figure."

"However, before his death, that powerful figure, unwilling to accept defeat, used his own essence as a catalyst to cast the most vicious bloodline curse upon my entire witch clan."

At this point, Tuoba Yan'er's delicate body trembled slightly, and her eyes revealed a deep-seated hatred.

"Since then, every generation of my Wu clan has been corrupted by the curse. The purer the bloodline power, the stronger the curse. It constantly devours our life force, and when our cultivation is about to break through a critical threshold, it triggers our inner demons, causing us to explode and die, our souls annihilated!"

"For countless years, my Wu clan has tried countless methods, but has never been able to eradicate this curse. We can only watch helplessly as our people wither away generation after generation. Today, my Wu clan can only hide in the Hundred Thousand Mountains of the Southern Frontier, barely surviving. And I am the Holy Maiden of the Wu clan in this generation."

Chu Feng listened quietly, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

Unexpectedly, this girl, who looks no more than sixteen or seventeen years old, carries such a heavy destiny.

"Then why did you come to Tianyuan?" he asked curiously.

Upon hearing this, Tuoba Yan'er's clear, cold eyes instantly dimmed, and a touch of sadness appeared on her pretty face.

"Not long ago, my father, the previous chief of the Witch Clan, passed away due to the outbreak of the curse. After his death, the clan's elder revealed his wolfish ambitions and attempted to force me to marry his useless grandson so that he could rightfully control the entire Witch Clan."

"When I refused, he tried to force me. In the end, with the desperate protection of my father's trusted confidants, I managed to escape from the southern border. But they pursued me relentlessly, and I had no choice but to venture into this abyss."

After listening, Chu Feng nodded, indicating that he understood the cause and effect.

Looking into the girl's stubborn yet helpless eyes, he grinned and said, "So, if you want to live and take back everything that belongs to you, it seems you really can only rely on me."

Tuoba Yan'er bit her lower lip lightly. She looked at the mysterious and powerful young man in front of her. A struggle flashed in her clear and cold eyes, but it eventually turned into a resolute determination.

"If you can help me quell the internal strife within the Witch Clan and lift the blood curse upon my clan," she took a deep breath, met Chu Feng's gaze, and said, word by word, "I will grant you whatever you desire."

"Oh?" Chu Feng's smile turned somewhat wicked. "Including you?"

Tuoba Yan'er's pretty face flushed red instantly, the blush spreading from her cheeks all the way down her snow-white neck.

She hadn't expected Chu Feng to ask so directly, and for a moment she was at a loss for words.

But when she saw the mocking smile in Chu Feng's eyes, a surge of competitive spirit welled up within her.

She straightened her back, her pretty face flushed with embarrassment, yet her expression held an undeniable firmness: "That's right!"

Seeing the girl's seemingly cold but actually delicate appearance, Chu Feng couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Laughter echoed in the oppressive, blood-red space, somehow diluting the ancient, deathly silence.

"Alright, I'll stop teasing you." Chu Feng's smile faded. "We should head out."

After saying that, he took Tuoba Yan'er and returned along the same route.

When the two returned to the ancient battlefield, the mountain-like demon king, the Soul-Devouring Hou, was respectfully prostrating itself in place. Upon seeing Chu Feng, it immediately let out a whimper of submission.

"Let's go, Xiaoshan."

Chu Feng gave a casual command, then took one person and one beast and soared into the sky, flying towards the outside of Tianyuan.

……

The entrance to Tianyuan.

The moment Chu Feng's figure burst out of the churning black mist, an anxious figure immediately rushed forward to greet him.

"Master! You're finally out!"

Zhuge Xuan looked at Chu Feng, who was unharmed, and first breathed a long sigh of relief. Then, his old face was instantly replaced by anxiety and solemnity.

"Where is Senior Mo?"

Chu Feng looked around but didn't see Mo Qiubai, so he couldn't help but ask.

Zhuge Xuan hurriedly said, "Master, something has happened! Senior Mo has already left!"

Swish!

Upon hearing this, Chu Feng's expression darkened, and he asked, "What happened?"

"The Situ and Wu families of Cangxuan Prefecture have led a large number of powerful individuals to the capital, claiming they intend to kill their master and make their young master pay with his life. Senior Mo rushed back upon hearing the news!"

Zhuge Xuan explained in detail.

boom!!!

Upon hearing this, Chu Feng's expression turned cold, and a terrifying aura of killing intent erupted from his body. He coldly said, "Go!"
