Fighting: I am Han Feng, I respect my teacher

A month later, bolts of lightning gathered in the sky above Medicine Saint Valley.

However, due to interference from the special fog, it was unable to lock onto the target for a long time.

With a thought, Han Feng summoned the Nine Profound Golden Thunder and sent it to the void to fight against the same kind he had summoned this time.

Not long after, the Nine Profound Golden Thunder, having eaten and drunk its fill, flew back into Han Feng's body, carrying its kin who had already entered its belly.

For the Nine Profound Golden Thunder, this was an extremely rare feast.

The Nine Profound Golden Thunder is such a rare type of lightning that it is almost impossible to predict under normal circumstances. It will only be used when a ninth-grade golden pill is refined.

A moment later, Han Feng walked out of the alchemy room with a golden pill in his hand.

The alchemy session went relatively smoothly. Han Feng received the alchemy insights from the Medicine Emperor of the Medicine Clan and gained a deeper understanding of his own alchemy skills.

"Master, did we succeed?"

Ye Qingyun quickly walked to Han Feng's side, placed her hand on his arm, and transmitted pure Broken Wood Qi to Han Feng to replenish the losses from refining pills.

This energy from the broken wood did not damage Ye Qingyun's foundation, so Han Feng let her do as she pleased, and he could only be forced to endure it.

"Alright, now it's time to go see some old friends."

Han Feng looked eastward, towards the direction of the ancient clan.

Ancient tribe, ancient world.

Gu Yuan has been keeping a low profile lately, and he even uses clones to convene meetings with his clansmen.

The elders of the ancient clan all knew that the clan leader had suffered a serious injury.

Even so, no one dared to do anything out of line.

Firstly, there's the trusted confidant, Black Annihilation King Gu Lie, in charge; secondly, Gu Xun'er has also grown up.

Moreover, in this battle, the ancient race defeated the soul race, achieving a great victory!

From this day forward, the ancient clans will be in charge of the entire Dou Qi Continent!

Although no one said it aloud, many people thought the same thing.

When the Soul Clan existed, the Ancient Clan naturally had to restrain themselves, but now that the Soul Clan has been destroyed, the confidence of the Ancient Clan has naturally soared even higher.

From a certain perspective, the Soul Clan also played a role in restraining the Ancient Clan.

With the two clans checking and balancing each other, the other clans felt secure.

This is also why they were unwilling to join the alliance in the past.

At this moment, during the council of elders of the ancient clan, one of the elders spoke up: "What is the current situation of the clan leader?"

The girl sitting in the main seat glanced at the elder and calmly said, "My father suffered damage to his essence during the battle with the Soul Emperor, but thanks to the clan's medicinal pills, he has stabilized initially. Elders, there is no need to worry."

"That's good."

The elder who had spoken earlier nodded, seemingly relieved.

Golden light flashed in Gu Xun'er's eyes.

Family matters are indeed not so simple.

Each of the elders' factions, to varying degrees, wanted to profit from this great war.

Previously, when faced with a formidable enemy, everyone could unite as one, but now that the enemy has been defeated, all that remains is the distribution of spoils.

If his father were sitting here right now, what would he do?

Gu Xun'er couldn't help but think.

"Young Clan Leader, next we should discuss how to deal with the Soul Clan."

An elder offered a word of advice.

Before truly convening all tribes for discussion, the ancient tribe also needs to come up with a plan internally, and today is the final meeting to discuss this matter.

Gu Xun'er nodded and announced the start of the meeting agenda.

----------

On the other side, at the heart of the ancient tribe, lies a secluded mountain peak.

Gu Yuanzheng is currently recuperating here.

On his chest, a gruesome knife wound still remained, with black blood swirling around its edges. Although most of it had disappeared, it was still there.

"The Blood-Slaying Emperor-Slaying Blade is truly formidable."

Gu Yuan's face was pale.

He forcibly suppressed the damage inflicted during the war, and all the backlash manifested itself little by little after the war.

Suddenly, a strange spatial fluctuation appeared in this place.

Gu Yuan focused his mind and immediately became alert. He slightly raised his hand, which was hidden under the covers, as if the slightest thing would trigger the sect's alert.

Wow!

As the space fluctuated, Han Feng's familiar figure appeared, and Gu Yuan's expression instantly relaxed.

"You finally came."

Chapter 496 Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade

Han Feng looked at Gu Yuan, his gaze lingering for a moment on the crack in his chest.

"Was this caused by the Blood Blade of the Emperor Slayer?"

Gu Yuan nodded.

"You defeated him?"

Gu Yuan asked.

Han Feng nodded.

“I killed him with my own hands.”

Gu Yuan's eyelids twitched slightly.

Killed the Soul Emperor?

"You... have become much stronger."

Gu Yuan said slowly.

Han Feng smiled gently.

"maybe."

In Han Feng's eyes, he had indeed become much stronger, but he was still... not strong enough!

True strength lies in being able to defeat the opponent in your heart.

Previously, the Soul Emperor was his goal, but now that goal has been surpassed, the next goal has become the Heart Demon Emperor!

Compared to the Soul Emperor, he might have already surpassed him, but compared to the Heart Demon Emperor, he was far inferior.

"Are you hurt?"

Gu Yuan asked.

Even if Han Feng wins a battle against an opponent like the Soul Emperor, his final counterattack before death will still cause him a lot of suffering.

"Small injury."

Han Feng said.

Gu Yuan pursed his lips, unsure of what to say.

Compared to this, I really feel inferior.

"Han Feng, when did you start acting like this?"

Gu Yuan didn't dare say those words out loud; this kid is really something else now.

I can no longer speak as freely as I used to.

At this moment, Gu Yuan suddenly felt that having such an outstanding prospective son-in-law was also a very stressful thing.

"Could you take a look at my injury and tell me how to treat it?"

Gu Yuan spoke up.

"It hurts terribly."

A white flame ignited at Han Feng's fingertip, which startled Gu Yuan.

"Purifying Lotus Demon Flame?!"

"As expected, you refined it."

Adding to the Void Devouring Flame that Han Feng used earlier, could it be that this kid has refined all the strange flames on the Strange Flame Ranking?

call out!

With a flick of his finger, Han Feng sent milky-white flames into the wound on Gu Yuan's chest, beginning to purify the alien energy that had seeped into his bones.

呲呲呲!

The sound of impurities evaporating rang out, and Gu Yuan clenched his fist, almost crying out.

This kid has no martial ethics! Is he going to start training like this right from the beginning?

It hurts even more than before...

Gu Yuan, being a former peak expert, endured the pain without uttering a sound.

When the milky white flames burned out, the black aura on Gu Yuan's chest had disappeared.

"Hu! Hu! Hu!"

Gu Yuan was breathing heavily, his back soaked with sweat.

It really hurts, but the purification effect is really strong.

At this moment, Gu Yuan felt that the alien energy that had previously hindered the flow of his battle qi had been purified, and now he could finally freely unleash his battle qi.

"Cough! Cough!"

Gu Yuan coughed up a mouthful of black blood and spat it into a container next to him.

"Ha, thank you."

After spitting out the blood, Gu Yuan immediately leaned against the headboard, and the pain on his face gradually subsided.

It's better to have a short, sharp pain than a long, drawn-out one. As long as you get through that initial pain, you'll gradually get better.

The white flame at Han Feng's fingertips gradually faded.

He took out a pill and handed it to Gu Yuan.

"Senior Gu Yuan, I have come here this time for the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade."

Gu Yuan paused as he took the pill, then smiled gently.

"I expected this."

Without hesitation, Gu Yuan took out the ancient jade belonging to the Gu clan.

Han Feng took it and then took out the other seven fragments, piecing them together.

Swish!

A dazzling light shone, and Han Feng immediately erected a barrier to suppress it.

A complete piece of ancient jade was quietly floating in his hand.

"This is... the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade!"

When Gu Yuan saw this complete ancient jade, he was momentarily stunned.

Is this what the Soul Emperor planned for a thousand years and risked the lives of his entire clan to seize?

To some extent, Emperor Cheng's desires led to the tragic state of the Xiao Clan a thousand years ago and the Soul Clan today.

So many corpses were lost in the pursuit of that imperial throne.
