"Since everyone already knows what's going on, we'll speak plainly. From this day forward, the Dongguo Heavenly Clan and the Chu Heavenly Clan shall restore our alliance."
"Should anyone dare to move against the Chu Heavenly Clan, they will be making enemies of the Dongguo Heavenly Clan. And the Dongguo Heavenly Clan will absolutely not let it slide."
The eldest of the Dongguo Twin Heroes declared in a booming voice.
His words were brimming with intimidation.
Sure enough, the moment those words left his lips, every faction present — including the Burning Field Demon Clan, which harbored deep hatred toward Chu Feng — felt their expressions shift, with varying degrees of wariness flickering in their eyes.
If it were merely the Chu Heavenly Clan, they naturally would not have been afraid. But with the Dongguo Heavenly Clan stepping forward on the Chu Heavenly Clan's behalf, they would need to weigh their own strength carefully.
After all, the Dongguo Heavenly Clan, the Azure Wing Demon Clan, and the Soul Pursuing Bright Sect were recognized as the three most powerful forces in the Eastern Region of the Ancestral Martial Cultivation World.
Thus, the strength of the Dongguo Heavenly Clan was in no way inferior to that of the Azure Wing Demon Clan. A faction like the Burning Field Demon Clan naturally would not dare to provoke the Dongguo Heavenly Clan.
"It worked! Brother Chu Feng actually pulled it off! I knew it — as long as he was willing to step forward, the Dongguo Heavenly Clan would definitely agree to reconcile."
"Now we're saved. No wonder Brother Chu Feng was so calm."
At that moment, Chu Ping was overcome with excitement.
He was not alone. Every member of the Chu Heavenly Clan shared his elation.
They all knew full well how powerful the Dongguo Heavenly Clan was. When the Dongguo Heavenly Clan had been shielding them before, who would have dared to bully the Chu Heavenly Clan?
Now that the Dongguo Heavenly Clan was once again protecting the Chu Heavenly Clan, who would dare to bully them?
Moreover, the eldest Dongguo Twin Hero's meaning had been quite clear — restoring the alliance. The very word "alliance" already demonstrated the importance the Dongguo Heavenly Clan placed on the Chu Heavenly Clan.
The Burning Field Demon Clan and the other factions, though all subservient to the Azure Wing Demon Clan, were merely subordinate forces — all of them followers of the Azure Wing Demon Clan.
But the Chu Heavenly Clan was different. Though they also relied on the protection of the Dongguo Heavenly Clan, they were equals — allies on equal footing.
In terms of status, this was entirely different from the position of the Burning Field Demon Clan and the others.
In their joy, every member of the Chu Heavenly Clan turned their gaze toward Chu Feng. They all knew that the Dongguo Heavenly Clan's willingness to shield them once again was entirely thanks to Chu Feng.
But in truth, not all members of the Chu Heavenly Clan were happy about this. Chu Hongyi and his two companions, for instance, wore expressions of displeasure.
Their displeasure was only natural. After all, as long as the Dongguo Heavenly Clan was willing to stand up for Chu Feng, the difficulty of dealing with him would increase dramatically.
"So what if it's the Dongguo Heavenly Clan? Today, I'm going to teach Chu Feng a lesson no matter what. Whoever dares to stop me will deal with me."
Without warning, Azure Wing Cloud Dragon let out a thunderous shout. Immediately after, the two brothers — Azure Wing Cloud Dragon and Azure Wing Cloud Tiger — shot into the air simultaneously, hurtling toward Chu Feng's position.
"Bold words. Then let's put them to the test."
Seeing this, the Dongguo Twin Heroes were not about to be outdone. They launched themselves forward, hurtling in the opposite direction toward the Azure Wing brothers.
In the blink of an eye, four Martial Immortal realm experts clashed in battle.
Rumble, rumble, rumble— In an instant, deafening booms erupted from all directions and waves of energy churned violently. The combined might of the four was truly terrifying.
Yet through watching the four exchange blows, Chu Feng was able to deduce that although all four were indeed Martial Immortal realm experts, when stripped of all their techniques and treasures, their actual cultivation was merely that of first-stage Martial Immortals.
The two sides were clearly old rivals.
From the very first exchange, they held nothing back, each unleashing their most powerful techniques.
Yet after a fierce bout of combat, neither side could gain a clear advantage.
It was no wonder the Dongguo Twin Heroes and the Azure Wing brothers shared equal fame — they truly were evenly matched.
Seeing that they could not break through the Dongguo Twin Heroes' defenses, the Azure Wing brothers withdrew and fell back into the ranks of the Azure Wing Demon Clan.
Seeing the two retreat, the Dongguo Twin Heroes did not press their advantage, but a trace of pride could not help but appear on their faces.
Regardless of how you looked at it, this time, the Azure Wing brothers had been the first to back down.
"Azure Wing Cloud Dragon, no matter how badly you want to deal with Chu Feng, as long as we brothers are here today, your Azure Wing Demon Clan can forget about touching a single hair on his head," the eldest of the Dongguo Twin Heroes declared smugly.
"What did you say? As long as you Dongguo Twin Heroes are around, my Azure Wing Demon Clan can forget about touching a single hair on Chu Feng's head?" Azure Wing Cloud Dragon asked.
