"Not good, this Inheritance Cavern is about to collapse. We need to leave immediately!"
Sensing the dire situation, Chu Feng shouted out and promptly headed toward the cavern's exit.
Under such circumstances, no one dared to hesitate. They all followed Chu Feng and fled outside.
Once Chu Feng and the others emerged, they discovered that not only was the interior of the Inheritance Cavern collapsing, but the exterior was crumbling as well.
Fortunately, with so many elders present, the collapse posed no real threat. Still, it was hard not to feel a sense of sentiment — the Inheritance Cavern was now completely gone.
This also confirmed that Chu Feng had indeed received the inheritance. Otherwise, the Inheritance Cavern would not have collapsed.
The reason for its collapse was simple: it meant that there were no longer any treasures or inheritances left within.
……
Now that everyone had made it outside, the younger generation including Chu Feng once again gathered together with Elder Xingyi and the others.
At this moment, Xia Yun'er looked at Chu Feng, and a hint of worry could be seen in her beautiful eyes.
She was sharp and perceptive enough to know that Chu Feng was currently in danger.
Meanwhile, Zhao Kun and the two male disciples of the Starfall Holy Land wore cold sneers on their faces as they watched Chu Feng, eagerly awaiting the moment he would be punished by Elder Tuoba and the others.
"Young friend Chu Feng, we truly have you to thank this time. What you did went well beyond the call of duty. I truly don't know how to express my gratitude."
"I have decided to increase your compensation. Please, you must accept it."
At long last, Elder Tuoba spoke — but rather than the cold rebuke that everyone had anticipated, he wore a warm and earnest expression as he presented a Universe Bag to Chu Feng.
What was going on?
At this point, not only were Zhao Kun and the Starfall Holy Land's male disciples confused, but even the Nine Profound Sect's disciples were utterly baffled.
Even if they weren't going to hold Chu Feng accountable, there was no reason to give him gifts, was there?
Had this Starfall Holy Land elder gone completely mad?
The Nine Profound Sect disciples sighed to themselves in bewilderment.
"Young friend Chu Feng, your dazzling display today has truly opened this old man's eyes. A genius of your caliber is a rare sight indeed."
"This is a small token of appreciation — consider it a welcoming gift. Please, you must accept it and not refuse."
But just then, the silver-haired elder of the Nine Profound Sect also stepped forward, carrying a Universe Bag in both hands, and approached Chu Feng.
At this point, it wasn't just the younger generation wearing looks of utter confusion — even Chu Feng himself was at a complete loss for words.
What on earth was going on?
Only the elders present truly understood what had just happened.
They knew full well that under no circumstances could they afford to offend Chu Feng any further.
