Fighting: I am Han Feng, I respect my teacher

Mu Ling was somewhat surprised when she saw Liu Qingqing.

However, before he could speak, Mu Qingluan walked up from behind Liu Qingqing.

The moment Mu Ling saw Mu Qingluan, her body trembled violently.

"Xiao Mu!"

"Father."

Mu Qingluan blinked and smiled as she looked at the enormous blue phoenix before her.

Although the two had not seen each other for many years, Mu Qingluan recognized him at first glance.

"It's really you..."

Mu Ling's voice was choked with emotion. As a father, he had spent far too little time with Mu Qingluan.

"They've grown so big."

Mu Ling looked at Mu Qingluan and murmured.

Unable to suppress her emotions any longer, Mu Qingluan rushed towards him and threw herself into her father's warm embrace.

Mu Ling has not yet taken human form. He uses his huge wings to embrace Qing Luan. From his perspective, Mu Qing Luan is tiny, and even one of his feathers can cover her.

"Father, I heard from Aunt Liu that you've broken through to the Dou Zong realm?"

"Yes."

Mu Ling nodded emphatically.

Over the years, he cultivated day and night, and finally his hard work paid off, allowing him to break through the threshold of the Dou Zong realm.

It should be noted that even within the entire Azure Phoenix Clan, the Dou Zong level is a pillar of strength.

Having broken through to the Dou Zong level, things will be much easier for him in the future, and the clan's rules will become more lenient towards him.

"Then let's go to Zhongzhou together. I discovered a lot of fun places in the Southern Region."

Mu Qingluan said happily.

"Alright, alright, once I successfully transform into human form, I'll do whatever you say."

Mu Ling said indulgently.

Sending his daughter away to cultivate for more than ten years, even if it was a decision made by the clan together, was a good thing for Mu Qingluan. However, as a father, he felt somewhat guilty.

He couldn't be there for her through her childhood, and now, according to human rules, Mu Qingluan is almost an adult.

“This is…”

After chatting for a while and expressing their heartfelt greetings, Mu Ling finally noticed Han Feng's presence.

"This is my senior brother, Han Feng!"

Mu Qingluan took the initiative to introduce herself.

So they are cultivators from the Starfall Pavilion!

Mu Ling quickly greeted Han Feng.

"Uncle, you're too kind. Qingluan hasn't seen you in a long time. Spend some time with her this time."

Han Feng said with a smile.

Even though she's only a teenager, she still cherishes family ties.

Liu Qingqing and Han Feng left the father and daughter alone and walked out of the room together.

"Mr. Han Feng, how is Venerable Feng now?"

"Master Uncle is doing well, thank you for your concern, Elder Liu."

Liu Qingqing nodded slightly.

"We should be grateful to the Starfall Pavilion for raising Xiao Mu to be so outstanding. Reaching the sixth rank at such a young age is something that would be impossible within the clan."

"Elder Liu, don't underestimate Qingluan's talent. She is very outstanding."

"It's natural."

Liu Qingqing replied.

“If it weren’t for Qingluan’s exceptional talent, my sister wouldn’t have been willing to send her to Zhongzhou.”

The two chatted as they walked out of the main hall and into the square.

At this moment, Lin Xian'er and the others were playing with the little blue phoenixes, while Ye Qingyun stood aside, talking to an old woman.

"The Azure Phoenix Clan has more women than men, which will cause problems for the balance of bloodline power in the future."

Han Feng said.

Liu Qingqing looked worried and sighed softly.

As one of the three Dou Zun in the clan, Liu Qingqing understood the seriousness of this issue more deeply than others in the clan.

"This is a problem that has existed since ancient times. The male members of the Qingluan clan have naturally weak bloodline power and must undergo extremely arduous training in order to catch up with the bottom line of bloodline inheritance. If it weren't for the fact that the men of the clan were willing to work so hard, the Qingluan clan might have already declined a thousand years ago."

Those who can transform into human form are ultimately a minority. Within the Azure Phoenix clan, too many members never attain the qualification to transform into human form throughout their entire lives.

The upper level can only represent the upper level, not the lower level.

If we don't intervene in advance, by the time we discover the problem, the entire family may already be experiencing a serious power gap.

A good example is the Xiao family of the Nanli Empire. A thousand years have passed and there is no one to carry on the family line. If it weren't for Han Feng's help in enabling Xiao Tianbao to break through to the Dou Zun level, their fate might have been very tragic.

There will always be a solution.

Han Feng comforted him.

"Hopefully."

Liu Qingqing secretly encouraged herself.

There are many things in the world that cannot be solved by strength alone.

Even though she had already cultivated to the level of a Dou Zun, she still had no clue how to solve the problem that had plagued her clan for thousands of years.

Han Feng smiled gently.

He certainly had a solution, but getting the Azure Phoenix Clan to accept it was the problem.

The Myriad Beast Spirit Fire can refine the bloodline of magical beasts. This effect is useless on humans, but it is very effective on magical beasts.

However, during the refining process, all members of the Azure Phoenix Clan need to lower their guard and accept the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire into their bodies.

If Han Feng were forced to do it, he could do it, just like back in the Purple Shattered Ruins, when the wild Myriad Beast Spirit Fire could easily control the berserk state of demonic beasts.

However, since this matter is for the good of the Azure Phoenix Clan, Han Feng certainly cannot force it.

Otherwise, what was originally a good thing could end up turning into a bad thing.

Helping others should have its limits; one should not impose one's own ideas on others. If the Qingluan Clan is unwilling, Han Feng will naturally not get involved in this mess.

Let's spend a couple of days getting to know each other first, and then we'll talk about it when Qingluan leaves.

Han Feng thought to himself.

Anyway, it won't make a difference to take a day or two, so let's observe the situation of the Azure Phoenix Clan first.

Out of respect for Mu Qingluan, Han Feng was still inclined to help this clan.

"Let's go, I'll take you to Mr. Han's place first."

Liu Qingqing said.

"That's Granny Qing, the high priest of the tribe. She will take good care of those girls."

Han Feng nodded and followed Liu Qingqing away.

Upon arriving at his residence, Han Feng first surveyed the surrounding environment, then set up the basic formation, sat cross-legged, and continued refining the Dou Sheng puppet.

As evening fell, Lin Xian'er and her group arrived at their lodgings, and the Qingluan clan brought dinner for Han Feng and the others.

"Qingluan has finally reunited with her family. We'll stay here for a few days to give her some time to spend with them."

During dinner, Han Feng spoke to the group.

The women all nodded in agreement, indicating their understanding.

“Master, Granny Qing told us that there is a place in the Qingluan tribe's territory where they practice flying techniques. We plan to go and take a look tomorrow.”

Lin Xian'er said.

"Okay, be careful."

Han Feng said with a smile.

The Azure Phoenix Clan is among the fastest in terms of speed.

It's a good thing that Granny Qing is willing to provide guidance.

Chapter 269 The Spiritual Fire of All Beasts

A few days flew by.

Han Feng's days in the Qingluan Clan territory were very peaceful. He spent most of his time in his room, refining two Dou Sheng puppets.

The body of a Dou Sheng is incredibly hard. For Han Feng, breaking through it is easy, but repeatedly refining it into a puppet-like artifact requires considerable effort.

However, the benefits are also obvious: the Dou Sheng's defense is significantly improved after being transformed into a puppet.

It consumed a lot of precious materials, which made Han Feng feel a pang of regret.

As dusk approached and the sun set, a dazzling light burst forth from Han Feng's room, signifying the successful creation of two Dou Sheng puppets.

Yao Xiaotian's originally shattered body has now been completely repaired, his skin reflecting a metallic luster, and his eyes are lifeless.

The Grand Elder was the same; all the toxins in his body were stored in the Dou Sheng space within his body, and he did not reveal his aura to the outside world at all. He looked less cunning and more "honest" than when he was alive.

"Go, return to the Nine Netherworld Python Clan."

Han Feng said to the Grand Elder.

Both puppets had been imprinted with Han Feng's soul. Although their original intelligence had been completely erased, they were still able to carry out the orders issued by Han Feng.

The elder's body flickered with green poisonous fighting energy, and he disappeared into the valley in a few breaths.

Han Feng examined the remaining Yao Xiaotian carefully, then casually waved his hand and put him into the Mountain and River Map.

"Finally done."

With the assistance of two Dou Sheng puppets, their combat power has clearly increased by a level.

Although we won't need such high-end combat power in the short term, it's better than nothing.

If it really comes down to a battle with the Soul Palace, a one-star Dou Sheng wouldn't be able to play a decisive role.

Even if you can't beat a master, you still can't beat them; you can only stall for time.

Fortunately, after this trip to the Nine Netherworld Python Clan, Han Feng now has more confidence in his combat abilities. Fighting against opponents of higher stars at the Dou Sheng level is not a pipe dream for him.

As long as he refines the Demon Saint's essence blood, his cultivation level will skyrocket in a short period of time, reaching the three-star Dou Sheng level without any problem, and even aiming for the four-star level is not out of the question.

The next few years will give Han Feng a break, allowing him to focus on cultivation and search for the strange fire.

This was arguably the last relatively peaceful period before Han Feng launched his true counterattack.

After leaving the house, Lin Xian'er and the others have been practicing aerial combat skills for the past few days, and their aerial fighting techniques have improved considerably.

Although Granny Qing appears approachable and kind, she is actually the most senior of the three Dou Zun of the Qingluan Clan, and also the High Priest of the Qingluan Clan, in charge of the clan's rules.

Liu Qingqing had already told him this before.

Having a Dou Zun guide Lin Xian'er and the others in their cultivation is a way for the Qingluan Clan to give back to Han Feng and the Starfall Pavilion.

After experiencing the Qingluan Clan for the past few days, Han Feng was quite satisfied with them.

The main reason was that they treated Lin Xian'er and the others very well, which touched a soft spot in Han Feng's heart.

He arrived at the valley where Lin Xian'er and the others were cultivating, and saw that they were still training as evening approached.

Bathed in the afterglow of the setting sun, several beams of light darted through the canyon, their movements crisp and swift, without a trace of hesitation.

This is precisely the essence of the Azure Phoenix Clan's flying techniques.
