After that, under the Weapon Refining Immortal's guidance, Chu Feng and the others arrived at a deserted place. There wasn't a soul in sight, yet with just a tap of the Weapon Refining Immortal's finger, a barrier gate opened.
Passing through the barrier gate, Chu Feng's expression instantly lit up with joy.
The Ancient Elves had indeed sent an elite force this time. Though they were all disguised to look like humans, Chu Feng could still recognize them—especially Lord Luokong.
But that wasn't the biggest surprise. The biggest surprise was that the two sisters, Su Rou and Su Mei, were among them.
"Brother Chu Feng!" Upon seeing Chu Feng, Su Mei threw herself directly into his arms.
Su Rou, though not as unrestrained as Su Mei, was smiling gently—a captivating smile. It was clear from her expression that seeing Chu Feng made her truly happy.
"Hey, hey, hey! At least your senior brother is here too. Can't you even say hello?" Seeing this, Zhang Tianyi said with a look of mild annoyance.
"Senior Brother Zhang." At that, Su Rou and Su Mei both greeted Zhang Tianyi.
"Sigh, forget it. You two girls care more about romance than friendship. The moment you see my junior brother Chu Feng, I cease to exist." Zhang Tianyi said jokingly.
"That's right! When I see my Brother Chu Feng, no one else exists. Even though this guy used to be stupid, clueless, and completely dense." Su Mei said with a beaming smile.
Even now, she refused to let go of Chu Feng, holding him tightly without a care for the watching elders. Though she was no longer the young girl she had once been, her bold and uninhibited spirit hadn't changed one bit.
"Stupid, clueless, and dense? Was I ever like that?" Chu Feng looked at her with skepticism.
"Well, before I got to know you, that's how you seemed to me," Su Mei replied.
"But once she got to know you, she was completely smitten. Now it's 'Brother Chu Feng this' and 'Brother Chu Feng that'—closer to you than to her own sister." Su Rou rolled her eyes from the side.
"I'm already Brother Chu Feng's woman. If I don't call him Brother Chu Feng, should I call him husband? Well, that'll have to wait until he marries us." Su Mei said sweetly.
Hearing this, Chu Feng felt a pang in his heart. It was true—Su Rou and Su Mei had long since given themselves to him.
But Chu Feng still hadn't married them. He had his own plans, of course. Marrying Su Rou and Su Mei was inevitable—it was only a matter of time.
Yet he hoped that when that wedding day came, his parents would be there.
"Ahem..." At that moment, Lord Luokong, who had been left standing off to the side, couldn't help but clear his throat twice.
"Alright, you can flirt later. There are important matters to discuss now," the Weapon Refining Immortal said.
"Lord Luokong, do you know about the Dark Hall's scheme this time?" Chu Feng asked proactively.
"I do. The Dark Hall intends to release the Moon Demon," Lord Luokong replied.
"Moon Demon? What is the Moon Demon?" At that moment, not only was Chu Feng's face full of curiosity, but so was Zhang Ming's.
"Everyone knows that the Lunar Labyrinth holds countless treasures. But few know that there is a Moon Demon dwelling within the Lunar Labyrinth."
"In truth, even we Ancient Elves were unaware of this Moon Demon. It was Qing Xuantian who told us about it," Lord Luokong said.
"Senior Qing Xuantian?" Chu Feng was quite surprised. He hadn't expected this matter to be connected to Qing Xuantian.
"The deepest depths of the Lunar Labyrinth—since ancient times, only Qing Xuantian has ever ventured that far. It was there that he discovered the Moon Demon."
"In other words, it was Qing Xuantian who broke the seal on the Moon Demon and set it free," Lord Luokong said.
"A demon released by Senior Qing Xuantian? What exactly happened?" Chu Feng couldn't help but ask seriously.
Later, after Lord Luokong's detailed account, Chu Feng finally learned the general course of events.
