The Feng family's council hall.

The air seemed to freeze, so oppressive it was suffocating.

Third Uncle Feng Yuan sat in the main seat, while the head of the family, Feng Qian, stood obediently beside him with his hands hanging down.

Below them were a group of elders, none of whom dared to even breathe, for fear of being used as a punching bag.

Seeing that no one dared to utter a sound, Feng Yuan slammed his dragon-headed cane, a symbol of his family's status, heavily on the ground.

A muffled thud rang in everyone's ears.

Cold sweat trickled down their foreheads and cheeks, and everyone kept their heads bowed low.

"Great! That's really great! Why is nobody speaking up now?"

suddenly.

A space trembled, and a person hurriedly walked out.

"Third Uncle, I...I've found out. It's...a family surnamed Feng in a city below the Beidou Holy Land."

The Grand Elder hurriedly reported.

"What kind of manners are these, stammering and stuttering?!"

Feng Yuan raised his eyelids slightly.

Upon seeing this, the Grand Elder dared not conceal anything.

"Yes... the grandfather of the head of the family."

"Two thousand years ago, the youngest son of the old patriarch fell in love with a mortal woman while traveling for training."

"The head of the family at the time strongly opposed it, but the young master was determined to marry that mortal woman, and finally threatened to kill himself."

"The head of the family could not break the family rules and had no choice but to banish him to the mortal world and make him swear not to teach his descendants the methods of cultivation."

"After the woman died, the young master also committed suicide for love."

"The one who has now awakened the Human Emperor's Body is his 25th generation descendant - Feng Zhi, who went to the Beidou Holy Land to pay homage and learn skills three years ago."

The elder took a deep breath and finished speaking.

As soon as he finished speaking, the hall fell into a deathly silence.

A glint of light flashed in Feng Yuan's eyes: "The timing matches up perfectly; he really is his descendant!"

That's true; over the past few thousand years, only a handful of people have been expelled from their families.

The family head standing nearby trembled upon hearing this.

The previous head of the family. That was his grandfather, the one who was expelled... He was indeed a descendant of their family's lineage.

孽 孽!

My heart was filled with mixed feelings as I dried it away.

Feng Yuan glanced at Feng Gan beside him and said quietly, "What? Nothing to say?"

I was utterly speechless, internally raging with frustration. Please, don't keep asking me about it!

Go ask your older brother if you dare! I'm innocent too.

He replied helplessly, "Third Uncle, I know I was wrong. It was my fault for not managing Grandfather properly..."

Feng Yuan snorted coldly, too lazy to pay him any attention. He stood up, leaning on his cane, and paced back and forth in the hall.

After walking around twice, he sat back down heavily. His cane creaked as he gripped it.

He desperately wanted to rush into his ancestral home, drag out his old, bastard brother, and give him a good beating, but he couldn't win.

"Beidou..."

Feng Yuan muttered to himself, he didn't believe that those old foxes from the Beidou Holy Land couldn't tell that he was a descendant of the Feng family.

"Too!"

After thinking about it, Feng Yuan understood Beidou's plan.

If Feng Zhi, who had not yet awakened his bloodline but possessed extraordinary talent, were to return to the Feng family at that time...

I'm afraid he won't live to see the time when he awakens the Human Emperor's Body.

After all, Feng Zhi's seniority in the Feng family is far below that of his predecessor.

Even the power behind any random member of the Feng family could crush him.

"Alas, things have come to this. We can only try to salvage the situation. It won't be long before the Beidou Holy Land establishes that child as its Holy Son!"

Feng Yuan had a clear understanding of the situation.

With his Feng family bloodline and unparalleled physique, if he isn't the Holy Son, who is qualified?

"Air dry".

"exist!"

"Manage your family members well. Anyone who feels that the Human Emperor Body was snatched away by someone else is not satisfied."

"You may challenge him anytime in the future! But... if he does anything dirty behind the scenes, I will personally clean house of him!"

Although Feng Yuan was speaking to Feng Qian, his cold gaze swept over everyone, the implication of which was self-evident.

He didn't want things to escalate to the point of bloodshed.

Everyone broke out in a cold sweat and agreed.

"In a few days, I will personally go and oversee things for him! I'll bring that child back to be recognized as a member of the family! Fengqian, you go too!"

Feng Gan was dumbfounded. What was he doing there?

"You're responsible for the mess your grandfather made."

Air drying is unavoidable.

This family head, who used to clean up the messes of the young, is now even dealing with the old ones... sigh! What a troublesome old grandfather.

……

As soon as Feng Zhi stepped out of the ancestral land gate, he found that the Holy Lord Bei Shenfeng was waiting for him.

"Holy Lord, what is this?"

Feng Zhi hadn't seen anyone for three years, and was still a little shy.

"Your cultivation level? Core Formation Realm??"

Beishenfeng looked disoriented, his face filled with disbelief.

No? Wasn't he laying the foundation for the past three years? How could his cultivation level improve so quickly?

He then suppressed his shock and looked at Feng Zhi, saying helplessly:

"It certainly looks much better now than before."

"But your outfit is just... indescribable..."

Feng Zhi is currently shirtless and tattered on his lower body. If he goes out, people will probably mistake him for a beggar.

He then spoke to Feng Zhi about the matter of the Heavenly Pivot Saint, reminding him not to repeat the same mistake.

Feng Zhi scratched his head and smiled. There were actually clothes in the storage ring his master had given him.

But he did stay inside for so long that he became a bit careless and forgot to change, and he didn't seem to care much.

"It's alright, we're all cultivators of the highest level, no need to be so formal. Let's leave first!"

Feng Zhi waved his hand dismissively.

Bei Shenfeng was speechless. Did you think the Holy Land was all men? Besides, with your appearance, who wouldn't mistake you for a beggar?

He then spoke again, and with a wave of his sleeve, a spatial passage opened, and Feng Zhi followed.

……

A moment later, Feng Zhi stepped out of the spatial passage.

What came into view was the familiar yet unfamiliar Supreme Hall.

The thirty-six stars overhead were twinkling slightly, as if welcoming his arrival.

"Three years have passed so quickly!" Feng Zhi couldn't help but sigh.

Looking back, he was just a novice ant when he first started, but now, after three years of honing his skills, he has finally become a slightly older cultivator.

"Alright, sit here, the elders are all waiting for you!"

Beishenfeng reminded Fengzhi, who was still distracted, and pointed to the most conspicuous empty lotus seat on the right.

Feng Zhi then came to his senses, strode forward, sat down casually, and then observed the situation on the field.

Below, dozens of lotus platforms were already filled with people, each exuding an unfathomable aura!

Judging from Feng Zhi's current cultivation level, each of these elders is at the Purple Mansion realm!

But it didn't give him much of a sense of danger. With his current combat strength, even if he couldn't defeat Zifu, he could still protect himself.

"Everyone's here, now let me formally introduce you."

Beishenfeng surveyed the surroundings, his voice majestic and resonant.

"This is my junior brother, your senior brother, and also the Holy Son of my Beidou Holy Land—Feng Zhi!"

"The strange phenomenon that previously hung upside down above the Holy Land was precisely caused by the Holy Son's awakening of his physique!"

Feng Zhi is Bei Chenzi's disciple, and also a Holy Son!

According to the rules, everyone except the Holy Lord, including the other senior disciples, must address him as Senior Brother!

The elders below were already prepared, and their divine senses immediately began to murmur among themselves.

"People from the Feng family?"

"Just as I suspected. His surname is Feng, and judging from the previous phenomena, this is a Human Emperor's Physique, a rare physique unparalleled throughout history!!"

"How did the Holy Lord manage to abduct the Feng family's imperial body?"

"Seriously, won't the Feng family really come after us to fight to the death...?"
