Feng Jiuyue and her group were heading in the opposite direction.
Upon seeing Chu Feng here, they were quite surprised as well.
But their target didn't seem to be Chu Feng. Chu Feng guessed that their goal was the formation he had just completed.
They probably knew that members of their clan were at that formation.
But now that the formation was complete, what it revealed was neither the bloodline power of the Totem Phoenix Clan, nor the Totem Dragon Clan, nor even the Blood Eye Qilin Clan.
Instead, it was red lightning…
And the feeling that red lightning gave off was utterly terrifying.
So they were heading over to investigate.
Before long, Chu Feng crossed paths with Feng Jiuyue and the others in midair.
Sure enough, they chose to pass right by him.
"Wait."
But suddenly, Feng Jiuyue stopped and called out to Chu Feng over her shoulder.
"Something you need?"
Chu Feng wasn't intimidated in the slightest. He stopped as well and asked plainly.
Whoosh—
Feng Jiuyue swept her wide sleeve, and a box flew toward Chu Feng.
Without another word, she immediately set off again, hurtling toward the formation.
"Sister, you—"
Feng Tiansheng watched Feng Jiuyue leave without hesitation. He glanced at the box in Chu Feng's hand, clearly unhappy about it.
But in the end, he said nothing. After shooting Chu Feng a look, he hurried after his sister.
As for Chu Feng, he first inspected the box carefully. Once he confirmed there were no hidden mechanisms, he opened it.
Inside lay a golden pill.
A healing pill of extremely high value — no less precious than the one the Totem Dragon Clan's chief had given him.
But the reason the Totem Dragon Clan's chief had bestowed such a valuable pill was that Chu Feng had helped the Totem Dragon Clan on multiple occasions. And this time, he had also hoped that Chu Feng would continue to assist the younger generation of the Totem Dragon Clan.
Between them… a bond beyond ordinary friendship had already formed.
But Feng Jiuyue was a different matter entirely…
Chu Feng had no friendship whatsoever with the Totem Phoenix Clan. Not only had he swindled them inside the demonic crane, but he had actually killed people from the Totem Phoenix Clan within it as well.
Though the Totem Phoenix Clan didn't know about that, based on the fact that Chu Feng had fleeced them mercilessly, they should have been hostile toward him.
Those people they had encountered at the formation earlier — their hostility toward Chu Feng was the normal reaction.
So there was only one explanation for Feng Jiuyue giving him such a valuable pill.
"Well now, this Feng Jiuyue has quite the eye for things. She actually knows to get on your good side — saw you were injured and handed over such a valuable pill."
"Looks like not everyone in the Totem Phoenix Clan is a fool," the Queen remarked, and her words were exactly what Chu Feng had been thinking.
"Can't hurt to have someone with a brain. All the same, one more friend is always better than one more enemy."
Chu Feng smiled faintly, then stored the box away and continued onward.
Chu Feng had originally intended to find Long Chengyu, but when he arrived at the next formation, though he saw members of the Totem Dragon Clan here, neither Long Chengyu nor Long Muxi was among them.
There were familiar faces here, though.
Lord Long Xu's granddaughter, Long Zhizhi.
And Long Yuhong, daughter of the Totem Dragon Clan's chief — both were present.
Though this group wasn't led by Long Chengyu or Long Muxi, with the strength of Long Zhizhi and Long Yuhong, this team was absolutely composed of the Totem Dragon Clan's elite.
At the same time, there was another group here as well — members of the Totem Phoenix Clan.
This group of Totem Phoenix Clan members was equally formidable.
All of them were inside the formation's eye, pouring their full effort into releasing their auras, striving to complete the formation.
And this group was far superior to Long Shanshan and the others from earlier.
They were entirely capable of completing this formation. Right now, they were fighting for control of it.
Because they were so focused, they hadn't noticed Chu Feng.
"Need a hand?" Chu Feng asked as he approached the formation's eye.
At his words, Long Zhizhi, Long Yuhong, and the others finally noticed him.
"Chu Feng! You made it in too?"
"That's wonderful!"
The moment she saw Chu Feng, Long Zhizhi's face lit up with joy, as though she were reunited with a long-lost family member.
Long Yuhong didn't say anything, but the look in her eyes made it clear that she wasn't displeased to see Chu Feng — she was actually somewhat happy as well.
Just not as visibly excited as Long Zhizhi.
"Let me help you finish this formation."
Chu Feng didn't beat around the bush. He stated his intention directly.
"Chu Feng, this formation might be…"
Long Zhizhi tried to explain the formation's special properties, wanting to tell Chu Feng that it had restrictions.
