Fighting: I am Han Feng, I respect my teacher

In the shadowy area, a dark shape rose from the ground and coalesced into a human form.

"Mr. Ling."

Han Feng greeted him.

"Mr. Han."

Ling Ying bowed respectfully, then looked at the girl next to Han Feng.

"This guest is from the Spirit Race?"

Ling Ying was quite knowledgeable and immediately recognized the origin of the Spirit Butterfly.

"Yes, I went to the Spirit Clan recently and took care of some things. This girl is called Lingdie. Like you, she is a descendant of an ancient family."

Lingdie bowed respectfully to Lingying.

"Lingdie greets Elder Ling."

Ling Ying nodded.

"Mr. Han, would you like Miss Lingdie to stay here?"

"Yes, and I want someone from the ancient clan to mentor her, so that she won't feel like a stranger here."

Hearing this, Ling Ying smiled slightly: "I happen to have some free time right now. It seems Mr. Han has already thought it through."

"I don't know anyone else in the ancient clan."

Ling Ying nodded: "Alright, I'll take this on. I'll have time until Miss comes out."

After entrusting Ling Ying with this task, Han Feng brought Ling Die into the room and taught her a soul combat technique.

"You've been practicing spirit refining techniques since you were young, so you're quite sensitive to spiritual energy. This soul skill shouldn't be too difficult for you. Practice hard and try to master it as soon as possible."

Han Feng encouraged him.

"Yao Han, what exactly did you go to the Spirit Clan for?"

In Lingdie's eyes, Han Feng didn't have much time to do anything; he was always out shopping and enjoying the scenery with them.

"You will know when the time is right. Don't ask too many questions now, just focus on understanding."

"Oh."

Reality is indeed different from imagination. All love and romance are fleeting. Lingdie sighed, closed her eyes, and continued to comprehend the soul fighting techniques that Han Feng had taught her.

While Lingdie was comprehending her cultivation, Han Feng stepped out of the room and saw Ling Ying guarding outside.

"Is there something you're hiding from that girl—disguising your appearance?"

Ling Ying smiled.

He and Han Feng were old acquaintances. Although Han Feng's progress had previously made Ling Ying feel an insurmountable distance between them, this invitation to help brought them closer together.

Some friendships are built up from helping each other out in small ways. Ling Ying felt no annoyance at being able to help Han Feng; on the contrary, she was happy.

Han Feng said, "So, don't let me get exposed. I still need to keep using this identity to visit the ancient families for a while."

"Visiting an ancient family?"

Ling Ying was taken aback.

"So this trip to the Spirit Clan is just the beginning?"

After that, we didn't go to the Stone Clan, Medicine Clan, Thunder Clan, Flame Clan, or Soul Clan.

"Yes, it's a long and arduous task."

Han Feng sighed.

"I'll stop talking now, I'm going to see Clan Chief Gu Yuan."

Ling Ying watched Han Feng leave, calming her emotions.

What could possibly be so important that a powerful figure like Han Feng would go to such lengths to visit people from all over the place?

It's important to understand that ancient families are not external forces that can allow outsiders to enter at will.

Every opportunity to enter an ancient family is extremely rare.

If someone wanted to sneak in, given the resources and connections of these ancient families, it would be impossible for them not to discover it.

Ling Ying still remembers when she was young, she went out on a mission with the elders of her clan and needed to enter the Stone Clan. However, they were stopped at the outside by the guards and were stuck in an awkward situation, unable to go in or out.

Although some of these ancient families are not as powerful as the ancient clans, their grandeur is in no way inferior to that of the ancient clans.

Ling Ying slipped into the shadows, glanced around the room, and seeing that Ling Die was still cultivating, she continued to guard outside the door, returning to her old ways.

Meanwhile, Han Feng arrived at the location where he had been talking to Gu Yuan.

He sent a message through his mind, and soon a middle-aged man dressed in linen clothes appeared not far away.

"You've been to the Elven Realm?"

"Ah."

"It's very efficient."

Gu Yuan smiled and said.

"It was just a coincidence that I happened to be there during the Spirit Clan's Spirit Refining Conference, which is why I was able to enter the Spirit Clan smoothly."

"The Spirit Refining Conference, that is indeed a method, but I remember that it seems to require an introduction from a female member of the Spirit Clan?"

Gu Yuan asked.

"That's right. I was lucky; I met several Spirit Clan women not long after entering the city."

"You're really lucky with women!"

Gu Yuan sighed.

"I came to the ancient tribe this time to report to you on the progress of this persuasion."

"Well, tell me."

The two got back to the main topic, and Han Feng began his story.

When Gu Yuan heard that it was Ling Yuan and Han Feng talking, his gaze sharpened slightly.

"The Spirit Clan Chief hasn't shown up, has he?"

"They say he's in seclusion."

"Hehe, let's continue."

Gu Yuan smiled mysteriously and waved for Han Feng to continue.

Han Feng recounted everything he had told Ling Yuan.

"So, Ling Yuan's attitude means he believes it?"

Gu Yuan asked in confusion.

Logically speaking, the Eldar are not so easy to deal with.

Especially when it comes to matters concerning the extermination of a clan, no family would believe it.

"I was quite surprised at the time; I didn't expect our first conversation to go so smoothly."

Han Feng sighed.

If every ancient family could be like the Spirit Clan, that would be wonderful.

"In my opinion, there must be some factors you don't know about."

Gu Yuan then spoke.

In his view, the Eldar wouldn't normally cooperate like this unless something special happened.

Gu Yuan quickly analyzed in his mind: Could it be that the Spirit Clan had already noticed something amiss, which was why they believed Han Feng's words?

If that's the case, then they really need to take this matter seriously.

"Perhaps, but I think the Eldar are willing to cooperate."

Han Feng said.

"Yes, if the problem you predicted really occurs, the ancient clan will definitely send a team to provide support."

Gu Yuan made a promise to Han Feng.

"The Soul Clan came with the aim of annihilating the clan silently, so their strength should not be underestimated. If Clan Chief Gu Yuan wants to be on the safe side, my suggestion is to make more contingency plans. It would be best if one of your soul clones also went."

"That's so safe?"

Gu Yuan was taken aback. To have his soul clone take action was an overreaction.

Han Feng sighed helplessly.

If it weren't for concerns about potential problems within the ancient clan without its patriarch, Han Feng would have wanted Gu Yuan's true form to go there.

If we can defeat the Void Devouring Flame in one fell swoop, it will greatly help the development of the situation later.

For Han Feng, it was an even greater gift from heaven.

“Clan Chief Gu Yuan, I have reliable intelligence. Among the members of the Soul Clan who are taking action this time, there will be a special member.”

After thinking it over, Han Feng decided to tell Gu Yuan the news.

"The Void Devouring Flame, the second-ranked Strange Flame on the Strange Flame Ranking, is now within the Soul Clan."

Gu Yuan nodded after hearing this, showing no particular surprise.

"I already knew about the Void Devouring Flame."

"what?"

Han Feng was taken aback, but quickly realized what was happening.

The ancient clan's intelligence network was not to be underestimated. Han Feng vaguely remembered that he had been taught a lesson by members of the intelligence network before.

It's not because of a lack of ability, but because of a lack of professional expertise.

"Do you know the current cultivation level of Void Devouring Flame?"

"I'm not really sure about that, but it should at least be the strength of a mid-level Dou Sheng."

Gu Yuan analyzed.

The matter of the Void Devouring Flame has a long history. It entered the Soul Clan, but initially it did not achieve anything or show any powerful abilities. However, it only took a thousand years for the Soul Clan to recover.

"What you said reminds me of something. The Void Devouring Flame has appeared very rarely in history. Even among the ancient races, there is no detailed information about it."

Gu Yuan said somewhat seriously.

"If your hypothesis is correct, and the Void Devouring Flame attacks the Spirit Race, then the Spirit Race's situation is truly in jeopardy."

Putting everything else aside, the fact that it ranks second on the list of strange flames is enough to make many people feel awe towards the Void Devouring Flame.

"The Void Devouring Flame is of great importance. Has Clan Chief Gu Yuan considered capturing it?"

"Hehe, I think you're the one who has this idea, right?"

"Yes, I do have that, there's no denying it."

Han Feng replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Chapter 401 The Stone Clan

"Put the matter of the Void Devouring Flame aside for now. The second-ranked Strange Flame on the Strange Flame Ranking is no pushover. Unless you have a well-thought-out plan, don't provoke it."

Gu Yuan was subtly reminding Han Feng.

Han Feng nodded.

The Void Devouring Flame is indeed very powerful, so powerful that Han Feng currently has no specific plan to capture it.

Faced with the cultivation level of a Nine-Star Dou Sheng, only Gu Yuan could possibly subdue him.

However, getting Gu Yuan to take action is extremely difficult. He not only represents the Gu Clan, but also symbolizes the leadership of all eight clans. If he makes any move, various parties will have different speculations and doubts about the Gu Clan's motives.

If the Soul Clan were to turn the tables on them, the situation could be turned upside down in a very delicate moment.

“I will continue to monitor the situation with the Spirit Clan. As you said, if anything unusual happens in the Spirit Realm, I will immediately send people to investigate.”
