Chapter 3088: The Truth from Back Then (1)

"Long time no see, Miss Xia," Chu Feng said to Xia Yun'er with a smile.

"Long time no see, Young Master Chu," Xia Yun'er returned the smile.

The two of them wore pleasant expressions as they chatted back and forth like a pair of old friends, completely ignoring every other junior present.

If this had been in the past, the fact that Chu Feng could hold such a conversation with Xia Yun'er would have drawn countless looks of envy, jealousy, and even hatred.

After all, she was one of the three universally acknowledged beauties of the Greater Heavenly Domain — the Holy Daughter of the Starfall Sacred Ground.

But at this moment, very few people envied Chu Feng. On the contrary, far more people envied Xia Yun'er.

Times had changed. Chu Feng was no longer the same fledgling who had just set out into the world, when even a minor junior like Chu Xianshuo could bully him.

Now, among all the juniors in the entire Greater Heavenly Domain, who would dare lay a finger on Chu Feng?

He was the one who had even defeated a being on the level of Li Anzhi.

Right then and there, everyone understood one thing.

From this day forward, the geniuses of the Greater Heavenly Domain fell into two categories.

One was Chu Feng. The other was everyone else.

There was no banquet under heaven that never ended, and the Heavenly Pride Assembly was no exception.

Especially now that the Gate to the Upper Realm had opened, the entire Greater Heavenly Domain faced a formidable enemy in the Li Heavenly Clan.

So after the Chu Heavenly Clan's Clan Chief had calmed everyone's tense nerves, the Heavenly Pride Assembly came to an end.

Once the assembly concluded, the Chu Heavenly Clan's Clan Chief gathered the clan's elders to discuss strategies for dealing with the Li Heavenly Clan.

As for Chu Feng, he made his way to the residence of the Chu Heavenly Clan's Clan Chief.

The Clan Chief had said he wished to speak with him about something.

Chu Feng quietly waited for the Clan Chief's return.

He, too, had an important matter to discuss with the Clan Chief.

Creak —

At last, the tightly shut doors of the hall were pushed open, and a familiar figure stepped inside.

It was none other than the Chu Heavenly Clan's Clan Chief.

"Chu Feng, you don't blame this old man, do you?"

The Clan Chief asked with a smile upon entering.

"This junior does not understand what the senior means. Why would I blame you?" Chu Feng replied.

"I impersonated Youyuan and deceived you for so long," the Clan Chief said.

Hearing this, Chu Feng suddenly understood and laughed. "The senior did so with my best interests in mind. Why would this junior hold it against you?"

"In truth, I had my own motives. I wanted to observe you through our interactions and confirm your character. But you truly have not disappointed this old man. You are very much like your father and your grandfather."

"Our Chu Heavenly Clan has prospered to the present day with over a million members, yet it is only in your veins that our clan's finest bloodline flows."

As the Clan Chief spoke these words, his gaze fixed upon Chu Feng, and within that gaze Chu Feng sensed a deep, earnest expectation.

In that moment, a stirring arose in Chu Feng's heart, because the Clan Chief's words carried a deeper meaning.
