Suddenly, Chu Feng shifted his gaze toward the Celestial Beast Clan and the Nightmare Spirit Clan.
Chu Feng's gaze was, in truth, quite bland. But in the eyes of the Nightmare Spirit Clan and the Celestial Beast Clan, it certainly didn't feel that way.
The moment Chu Feng's gaze fell upon them, their hearts clenched with terror. Even the Celestial Beast Clan, with their colossal bodies, couldn't help but tremble in fear.
They were afraid — genuinely, deeply afraid.
No one could blame them. Even the Linghu Heavenly Clan had been driven away by Chu Feng. How could they not be terrified?
"Young Master Chu Feng, we were forced into this by the Linghu Heavenly Clan. We never truly meant to stand against you. Please, show your magnanimity and spare us."
Seeing the situation, the members of the Nightmare Spirit Clan hurriedly bowed deeply, publicly begging for mercy.
"Young Master Chu Feng, you can tell right from wrong. You should know that we were all coerced."
Right after, the members of the Celestial Beast Clan also bowed deeply to Chu Feng.
This scene was truly something to behold.
After all, these were among the most powerful forces within the Ancestral Martial Cultivation World.
But while it was impressive, no one was particularly surprised.
At this point, who would dare not submit to Chu Feng?
"Young Master Chu Feng, from now on, within the Ancestral Martial Cultivation World, the brothers of our clan are willing to take your orders."
"Our clan's brothers are also willing to follow Young Master Chu Feng's commands."
"Young Master Chu Feng, just give us your orders. Say the word, and even if we must climb mountains of blades or wade through seas of fire, we will not refuse."
After these declarations, with the exception of a few clans like the Li Heavenly Clan and the Dongguo Heavenly Clan, who had yet to voice their stance, every faction present declared their willingness to follow Chu Feng.
And of all those witnessing this scene, none were more overjoyed than the members of the Chu Heavenly Clan.
Because those people they had once regarded as powerful and intimidating were now not only bowing to Chu Feng — the very looks they cast toward the Chu Heavenly Clan members were filled with reverence.
Ever since leaving the Chu Heavenly Clan and arriving in the Ancestral Martial Cultivation World, they had been targets of bullying and scorn. They had long forgotten what it felt like to be looked up to and respected.
But today, everything had been restored. And not in front of those forces from the Upper Realm — but right here, before clans even more powerful than the Chu Heavenly Clan, they had reclaimed that sense of being respected.
At this moment, the members of the Chu Heavenly Clan couldn't help but look toward Chu Feng, their gazes brimming with gratitude.
They knew full well that without Chu Feng, none of this would have been possible.
Only they themselves understood the depth of what they felt.
In the heat of the emotion, some even shed tears.
But if there was anyone whose heart was most stirred, it was none other than Chu Ping.
He had always acted with caution, advocating patience and restraint, fearing he would bring trouble to the clan.
But today, watching with his own eyes as Chu Feng, single-handedly and through sheer power, had driven out the Linghu Heavenly Clan and compelled so many formidable forces to submit to the Chu Heavenly Clan, he suddenly realized that his previous way of thinking had been wrong. Chu Feng's way was the correct one.
In this world of martial cultivators, the strong truly were the masters.
If you chose to endure in silence, no one would pity you. Instead, they would despise you, look down on you, and even bully you.
