Chapter 4401. Quite Ugly, Indeed

"How ridiculous. Why should anyone from our Dao Sea listen to an outsider?"

"Never mind him—even if someone from the Nine Souls Sacred Clan pleaded on your behalf, it would be useless."

"No one can save you today."

The Martial Venerable Realm disciple spoke with undisguised contempt.

Hearing those words, Chu Feng didn't know what to say.

He had come here today with a favor to ask of the Dao Sea, and he had no deep relationship with the Fairy of the Dao Sea to begin with, let alone any bond with this elder of the Cloud Sky Immortal Sect.

Under these circumstances, it was clear the people of the Dao Sea would not give him, Chu Feng, any face.

As for Elder Gongsun, his face was already ashen.

In his eyes, that Martial Venerable Realm disciple's words were already the Dao Sea's answer.

"Young friend Chu Feng, do you know this person?"

Just then, the voice of the Fairy of the Dao Sea came from within the room.

"Senior, this junior does indeed know this elder."

Chu Feng answered honestly.

Hummm—

The moment Chu Feng's words fell, a surprising scene unfolded.

The formation that had been restraining Elder Gongsun actually dissipated.

And then, an even more shocking scene followed.

"Let him go."

From inside the room, the Fairy of the Dao Sea spoke.

"This…"

The scene left everyone feeling incredulous. Not just Elder Gongsun and Chu Feng—even the Fairy of the Dao Sea's own disciples were stunned. This was not at all like their master's usual style.

"Master, don't believe what this man says. How could he possibly not know this is our territory?"

"Moreover, he came here to use the power within our Dao Sea to refine a treasure."

"Such behavior shows a complete disregard for our Dao Sea."

"He must not be let off easily."

The female Martial Venerable Realm disciple spoke.

"I said let him go."

The Fairy of the Dao Sea's voice rang out again.

This time, her voice was no longer so gentle—there was a hint of impatience.

The moment those words were spoken, every one of the Fairy of the Dao Sea's disciples showed fear on their faces. Even that Martial Venerable Realm disciple was no exception.

Despite their usual cheerful demeanor, it was clear they were all deeply afraid of their master.

"Your disciple understands."

That Martial Venerable Realm disciple hastily bowed, then said to Elder Gongsun, "Did you hear my master's words?"

"I heard, I heard! Thank you, Fairy! Thank you, all you fairies!"

Elder Gongsun was overjoyed and bowed repeatedly. Just moments ago he had thought he was dead for certain, yet now he had been saved. It truly felt like a dream.

"I told you to leave, so leave quickly."

However, his bowing did nothing to soften the Martial Venerable Realm disciple's attitude—if anything, the anger on her face intensified.

"This old man will leave right away, right away."

Elder Gongsun was now drenched in cold sweat and was about to take to the air.

But just before departing, he suddenly stopped, turned around, and actually performed a grand bow toward Chu Feng.

"Culti…"

"No—Young friend Chu Feng."

"Young friend Chu Feng, this act of kindness today, this old man will remember it, and I will surely repay you in the future."

"If you have time in the future, please do come visit my Cloud Sky Immortal Sect."

Elder Gongsun spoke those words from the bottom of his heart. He had already been quite surprised to learn that Chu Feng had saved Lian Xi and the other two. But he never expected that today, even he himself would be saved by Chu Feng—and in a place like the Dao Sea, no less.

"If the opportunity arises, I will certainly visit."

Chu Feng meant those words as well, since Yin Zhuanghong was currently at the Cloud Sky Immortal Sect.

"Good—you must come."
