"
Princess Xiaoxiao was the first to reach Chu Feng's side, her face brimming with excitement and joy.
And though everyone had long since guessed the answer, they still waited for Chu Feng to confirm it himself.
"Mm, it's just… my talent is limited. Though I received Lord Situ Qi's inheritance, my formation mastery only reached the sixth level of Dragon Transformation — not the seventh."
Speaking of this, a trace of shame appeared on Chu Feng's face.
"Young friend Chu Feng, don't be modest."
"This inheritance formation has been entered many times by the younger generation of our Zhuge family, yet not a single one of them ever received the inheritance."
"But you entered it and received Lord Situ Qi's inheritance in less than half an incense stick's worth of time."
"That alone proves how extraordinary your talent truly is."
"As for the seventh level of Dragon Transformation — that's merely a rumor."
The Zhuge family head said.
"
"Lord Situ Qi's inheritance formation was clearly left for the members of your Zhuge family, yet it ended up in my hands."
"This kindness — this junior will repay it someday."
Chu Feng said.
"Young friend Chu Feng, if you say things like that, you're essentially slapping us in the face. If you hadn't stepped in to save us, the entire Zhuge family would have been wiped out. What is a mere inheritance formation in comparison?"
"Besides, Lord Situ Qi once said that this inheritance formation goes to whoever is capable of obtaining it."
"The fact that you, young friend Chu Feng, were able to obtain it is your own ability."
"In truth, our Zhuge family had long since prepared everything and was ready to leave at any moment. The only reason we delayed was that we wanted to relocate the inheritance formation, but doing so is rather troublesome."
"However, since it was left behind by Lord Situ Qi, we simply couldn't bear to abandon it."
"Now that the inheritance formation is gone, our Zhuge family can leave with peace of mind." The Zhuge family head laughed.
After the inheritance formation was taken by Chu Feng, there was a brief moment of loss, but he didn't linger in sadness. On the contrary… he actually felt a sense of relief, as though a great weight had been lifted from his shoulders.
"Senior, if that's the case, then you already knew that the people from the Situ Spirit Gate were coming?" Chu Feng asked curiously.
"Yes. A month ago, someone warned our Zhuge family that the Situ Spirit Gate would come looking for trouble, and advised us to leave this place as soon as possible." The Zhuge family head said.
"A month ago?"
"Who was it?"
Chu Feng grew even more curious.
It wasn't just Chu Feng — the Sacred Light Whitebrow, the
They all wanted to know who could have possibly foreseen the Situ Spirit Gate's intentions.
"We don't know who it was either, but the letter gave us reasons we couldn't ignore. The specifics are difficult to discuss — please forgive me, young friend Chu Feng."
The Zhuge family head said.
"Senior need not worry."
Chu Feng naturally wouldn't hold it against the Zhuge family head. Even though he had saved them, that didn't mean the Zhuge family owed him full disclosure on everything.
If the Zhuge family head wasn't willing to say, he certainly had his reasons.
"Then, Patriarch Zhuge, when will you set off?"
Master Yin Ren asked curiously.
"We shouldn't delay — we plan to leave immediately."
The Zhuge family head said.
"But there are still many great formations throughout the Zhuge family. You're just going to leave them all behind?"
Master Yin Ren said.
"They are nothing more than worldly attachments."
The Zhuge family head smiled. It seemed he had long since steeled his heart for this.
"Since you're leaving, then why not lend me the Soul Healing Formation for a time?" Master Yin Ren said.
"Master Yin Ren, what do you need the Soul Healing Formation for?" The Zhuge family head was somewhat puzzled.
