After a period of traveling,
This world wasn't home to only the Zhuge Family. The forces here were mostly Spirit World Masters who practiced barrier techniques.
It could be said that this place was the holy land of Spirit World Masters across the Nine Soul Heavenly River.
But without a doubt, the strongest force in this world was only one — the Zhuge Family.
In truth, the Zhuge Family was also the ruler of this world.
When Chu Feng and the others arrived outside the Zhuge Family's territory, they found it to be much smaller than expected.
It was just an ordinary city, though this city had an invisible barrier around it. Chu Feng could sense how formidable that barrier was.
Presumably, that was the protective barrier left by the Zhuge Family's ancestors — one that no one below the
Master Yin Ren went to the gate and directly revealed his identity.
The Zhuge Family gave Master Yin Ren face, not only activating the protective barrier but also sending out a Managing Elder to personally welcome them.
It could be said they gave Master Yin Ren and Princess Xiao Xiao full face.
The moment they entered the city, Chu Feng also discovered that while the city looked small from the outside, in truth, it was a whole different world within.
The actual area of this city was probably thousands of times larger than what appeared from outside.
This... was the power of barrier techniques.
But being able to use spatial transformations in the real world further demonstrated the mastery of barrier techniques.
Chu Feng and the group were arranged to rest in a grand hall.
After being led there, the Managing Elder departed.
In this vast palace, apart from the serving maids, only Chu Feng and the others remained.
"Elder Niantian, do you know what cultivation level the strongest person in the Zhuge Family possesses?"
Sacred Light White Brow asked cautiously, transmitting his voice secretly.
But not only could Niantian Daoist hear it — Chu Feng and Sacred Light Buyu could also hear it.
"The strongest person in the Zhuge Family is the Zhuge Family Patriarch."
"His cultivation is at the Eighth Rank Martial Venerable, and his barrier techniques are at the Dragon Transformation Eighth Level."
"Actually, in the Zhuge Family, there isn't just the Patriarch at the Dragon Transformation Eighth Level for barrier techniques, but he is the only one at the Eighth Rank Martial Venerable realm." Niantian Daoist replied.
His reply was also multi-person transmitted; Chu Feng, Sacred Light White Brow, and Sacred Light Buyu could all hear it.
"If that's the case, then it'll be easy. Since this old man has already entered, they'll have no room to go back on their word."
Sacred Light White Brow's meaning was clear — if the other party dared to play tricks, he would use force to make them submit.
"Lord White Brow, you don't understand the Zhuge Family's protective array. That protective array isn't just a barrier screen; it can also bestow tremendous power upon the Zhuge Family."
"If the protective array is activated, the Zhuge Family Patriarch can obtain the power of a Ninth Rank Martial Venerable. So here, you absolutely must not use force." Niantian Daoist said.
"There's actually such a powerful array?"
Sacred Light White Brow's expression turned grim. The calculation he had just made fell through so quickly, and he naturally didn't feel too good about it.
Creak—
At that moment, the hall doors suddenly opened.
Several figures walked in.
Not only was the Managing Elder from earlier present, but several other elders were as well. Leading them was a white-haired old man in simple yet neatly kept robes.
Though his aged face was covered in wrinkles, he had kind brows and a benevolent appearance, looking very amiable.
He... was the Zhuge Family Patriarch.
"What a joyous occasion today — not only have Master Yin Ren and Princess Xiao Xiao graced us with their presence, but even Master Niantian has come to our Zhuge Family. Our Zhuge Family is truly honored!"
After entering, the Zhuge Family Patriarch warmly greeted them. It turned out he not only knew Master Yin Ren but also recognized Niantian Daoist.
"Patriarch Zhuge, allow me to introduce you. These two are lords from the Sacred Light Heavenly River — Lord Sacred Light Buyu and Lord Sacred Light White Brow."
Master Yin Ren introduced them.
Though their relationship was special, they had talked during the journey, and he had gained some preliminary understanding of Sacred Light Buyu and Sacred Light White Brow.
"Oh, the Sacred Light Clan?"
Not just the Zhuge Family Patriarch, but even the other members of the Zhuge Family began to seriously examine Sacred Light White Brow and Sacred Light Buyu.
After all, regardless of anything, the Sacred Light Clan were the rulers of the Sacred Light Heavenly River. They might not have heard of other families, but they had certainly heard of the Sacred Light Clan.
They had even had dealings with the Sacred Light Clan's top powerhouses before.
But these two before them — none of them recognized them.
However, being able to travel with Niantian Daoist, Master Yin Ren, and Princess Xiao Xiao, they instinctively realized that these two were likely no ordinary figures.
"There's no need to look at us with those eyes. You don't understand us yet, but you will in the future."
As Sacred Light White Brow spoke, a faint aura of pressure was released.
"This..."
Sensing Sacred Light White Brow's pressure, the expressions of the Zhuge Family members all changed. They clearly hadn't expected Sacred Light White Brow to possess such strength.
Eighth Rank Martial Venerable — in their entire Zhuge Family, only the Patriarch possessed such cultivation.
Such a cultivation level, even placed in the Nine Soul Heavenly River, would be a top-tier existence.
They hadn't expected the Sacred Light Heavenly River to have such an existence.
After all, even Sacred Light Xuanye was only...
"My apologies, my apologies."
The Zhuge Family Patriarch smiled and bowed once more to Sacred Light White Brow and Sacred Light Buyu.
With just a simple display of pressure, they realized that the current Sacred Light Heavenly River was not to be underestimated.
"As for this young friend."
Master Yin Ren was about to introduce Chu Feng.
"Who doesn't know Young Friend Chu Feng? There's no need for introductions."
The Zhuge Family Patriarch smiled as he looked at Chu Feng.
"Young Friend Chu Feng, you truly made a name for yourself in that one battle against the
"Young Friend Chu Feng, did you know that the Black Fiend Old Demon hates you to the bone and is currently searching everywhere for you?"
The Zhuge Family Patriarch asked Chu Feng.
"I could guess as much."
Chu Feng smiled. After what he did at the Black Fiend Old Demon's place, how could the Black Fiend Old Demon easily let him go?
"Haha, Young Friend Chu Feng is truly a man of courage."
"To have offended the Black Fiend Old Demon and still remain so calm."
