"Wipe out your entire clan?"
The moment those words left his lips, killing intent flashed through the eyes of every Gale Hunt Clan member.
After all, those words were extremely provocative—practically treating the Gale Hunt Clan with utter contempt.
Yet, the other party's oppressive aura was simply too terrifying.
Even their Clan Chief might not be able to match him.
Judging from the aura alone, this person genuinely possessed the strength to annihilate their entire clan.
So although rage churned within their hearts, not a single one of them dared to speak.
After all, even their Clan Chief hadn't said anything.
How could they?
"Withdraw your oppressive aura."
"Don't frighten my clan's people."
"I don't know what relationship your friend has with the three princesses of our clan, but the fact that they repeatedly infiltrated our territory is still your friend's fault."
"You should understand—I deliberately waited until they broke in before making my move."
"Had they truly not intruded, I would not have troubled them."
"Everything that happened was of their own doing. They were the ones who broke the rules first," the Gale Hunt Clan Chief said.
Upon hearing this, Xianhai Shaoyu withdrew his oppressive aura.
Indeed, these three figures wreathed in radiant light were none other than Xianhai Shaoyu, Xianhai Xin'er, and Xianhai Gusu.
"Your friend wishes to know about the three princesses?" the Gale Hunt Clan Chief asked after Xianhai Shaoyu lowered his aura.
"We bear no ill will. We only hope you can tell us the truth," Xianhai Shaoyu said.
"I don't know the true identities of the three princesses either."
"We were entrusted by someone to look after them."
"If you want to know what truly happened to them, asking me is useless."
The Gale Hunt Clan Chief said.
"They went missing at your place, and yet you say asking you is useless?"
"Are you trying to play us for fools?" Xianhai Xin'er said, clearly displeased. After all, this answer was far too dismissive—practically infuriating.
"I'm telling you the truth. If you don't believe me, you can go ask that person yourself."
"But I'll be blunt—that person's temper isn't pleasant, and his power is absolutely not something you can contend with."
"If you truly believe the strength of my Gale Hunt Clan is merely what you've witnessed, then you've gravely underestimated us."
When the Gale Hunt Clan Chief said these words, there was an unmistakable hint of threat in his tone.
Yet judging from his proud demeanor, these words were no joke, nor were they empty bluster.
"Very well, then take me to see this person you speak of."
However, Xianhai Shaoyu showed not the slightest fear.
"Young Master, be careful of a trap," Lord Gusu warned via secret voice transmission.
"Before I leave, I should at least do something for Chu Feng."
"If I clear every obstacle for him, it would hinder his growth as a martial cultivator. What seems good for him might actually do him harm."
"But since he so desperately wants to know what happened to his three friends, I'll help him this once."
Xianhai Shaoyu's words were also transmitted via secret voice, heard only by Lord Gusu and Xianhai Xin'er.
Seeing that Xianhai Shaoyu had made up his mind, Lord Gusu said no more and decided to accompany him.
"Lead the way," Xianhai Shaoyu said.
"Please," the Gale Hunt Clan Chief replied with a faint smile, turning to guide the three of them.
Under the Gale Hunt Clan Chief's lead, the three of them followed him to the forbidden grounds of the Gale Hunt Clan.
From the guards stationed here and the defensive measures in place, Xianhai Shaoyu could tell that this place was of the utmost importance to the Gale Hunt Clan.
However, when they reached the end of the forbidden zone, they did not see the person the Clan Chief had mentioned. Instead, they found a teleportation formation.
This teleportation formation emanated a rich aura of antiquity, and the destination it led to was quite far away—not merely outside the Gale Hunt Clan's territory, but entirely beyond the Upper Realm of Reincarnation.
Especially after the Gale Hunt Clan Chief activated the formation.
The expressions of all three changed.
They could perceive just how powerful this formation was—it could transport them to another world in a short period of time.
Such a formidable teleportation formation was exceedingly rare even across the vast Martial Cultivation World.
"Enter the formation, and you will naturally see the person I mentioned."
"But as I said, that person is not someone you can handle."
