"Father, no matter what level of cultivation I reach, I will always be your son." Chu Feng said to Chu Yuan.
"That's right. You are my son. You will always be my son." Chu Yuan nodded repeatedly. He truly took pride in Chu Feng.
"Big Brother, Father and the others have only just awakened and need proper rest. Let's take them to the Azure Dragon Sect first." Chu Feng said.
"Alright. We'll head back to the Azure Dragon Sect right away." Chu Guyu said.
"Father, I forgot to tell you — my big brother is now the Sect Master of the Azure Dragon Sect." Chu Feng said to Chu Yuan.
"Really? Guyu joined the Azure Dragon Sect, and he even became its Sect Master?" Chu Yuan asked in great surprise.
"Absolutely true." Chu Feng nodded.
"Good, good. Both of my sons are truly remarkable." Chu Yuan grinned from ear to ear with joy.
Although he knew he had been dead, he had been in a daze the entire time, lacking any clear consciousness.
All these years, it had been as though he were lost in a vague dream — but a dream with no content.
So naturally, he had no knowledge of everything that had transpired over the years. And now that he had just awakened to learn of so many wonderful things at once, he was overjoyed.
After that, Chu Feng, the members of the Chu Family, and the numerous guests from both the Eastern Sea Region and the Martial Sacred Continent all headed to the Azure Dragon Sect to rest.
To celebrate the resurrection of the Chu Family and to welcome the many guests, the Azure Dragon Sect naturally laid out a grand feast.
Moreover, Chu Feng also sent invitations to the Remnant Night Demon Sect, the Jiang Dynasty, and many other powers.
For Chu Feng, this might well be the last feast before he departed for the Outer World, and he wanted to see every single person who had once helped him.
At last, all the guests from the Nine Provinces Continent and the Eastern Sea Region had been invited, and this unprecedented feast officially began.
At the banquet tables, whether they were elders or disciples, lofty figures or newcomers who had just joined the sect, everyone was brimming with excitement and emotion.
Setting aside the fact that the Azure Dragon Sect was hosting so many important figures from the legendary Martial Sacred Continent — their own Chu Feng had actually defied the heavens and brought his dead family members back to life. He was simply omnipotent.
Most importantly, those distinguished guests who had come here because of Chu Feng were all incredibly generous, bestowing lavish gifts upon every member of the Azure Dragon Sect.
Both elders and disciples alike had received numerous benefits, making it impossible not to be elated.
After all, the treasures that those great figures casually handed out as rewards were things that most of them could never obtain in an entire lifetime of effort.
During the feast, Chu Feng gave Chu Yuan a rough account of his experiences over the years.
In truth, it was not Chu Feng himself who did most of the telling — creatures like Immortal Meow Meow had quite the loose lips.
Once the people of the Nine Provinces Continent came to fully understand what Chu Feng had been through and what he had accomplished, their admiration for him only deepened.
And those younger generation members who had once grown up alongside Chu Feng all realized that the gap between Chu Feng and themselves was growing ever wider.
If they were still on the ground, having only just learned to run, then Chu Feng had long since begun soaring through the heavens above.
"Feng'er, you're going to the Outer World?" Suddenly, Chu Yuan asked in surprise, his eyes filled with reluctance.
He had already learned that Chu Feng had become an emperor-level figure in this world — that there was almost no one left who could rival him.
And Chu Feng bore a great responsibility. He would be heading into the vast starry expanse — the so-called Outer World.
"Yes, Father. I am going to the Outer World. But I will come back sooner or later. I will return to see you, to see everyone." Chu Feng said.
"Feng'er, I know I can't stop you. I'll say only this — when you go to the Outer World, be careful above all else. Nothing is more important than your life." Chu Yuan said, his reluctance plain.
"Come now, Feng'er is destined for great things. As his father, you ought to support him."
"Here, Feng'er — your grandfather offers you a toast. May you make a name for yourself out in the Outer World, just as you have here." Chu Yuanba raised his cup.
Back in the day, Chu Yuanba had not thought highly of Chu Feng. It was only after Chu Feng had gradually risen to prominence and brought glory to the Chu Family that the old man had started treating him with respect.
And now, after learning of all of Chu Feng's incredible deeds, in his heart, Chu Feng had truly become the pride of the Chu Family.
He felt fortunate — fortunate that he had allowed Chu Yuan to take Chu Feng in all those years ago.
"If anyone should be offering a toast, it should be me to you, Grandfather." Despite how Chu Yuanba had treated him in the past, Chu Feng bore him no grudge, nor did he blame any member of the Chu Family. All he felt was a sense of debt. After draining his cup, he said to Chu Yuanba, "Grandfather, it was my fault back then. I was the one who brought harm upon all of you."
"Aiya, Feng'er, what are you saying? Let the past stay in the past. Aren't we all doing just fine now?" Chu Yuanba laughed it off nonchalantly.
"That's right, Chu Feng. No one blames you for that. It was never something you should have been blamed for — the fault lay with those villains." At the same time, the other members of the Chu Family chimed in with words of comfort.
Seeing this, Chu Feng smiled faintly. Then he suddenly grabbed a large jar of wine, his gaze sweeping across the crowd.
His family — Chu Yue, Chu Yuan, Chu Guyu, and all the others…
