Chu Feng smiled at Duan Liufeng.
Not only because this elder brother had still given him a heads-up.
The main reason was that this information was genuinely useful to him.
With a rank six Martial Emperor's cultivation, Chu Feng was confident he could actually hold his own against the current Sacred Light Clan.
Perhaps this time, when he left, he and the Sacred Light Clan would finally settle their score once and for all.
Besides, Chu Feng still had other trump cards up his sleeve.
Of course, Chu Feng did not leave immediately. Instead, he first went to say goodbye to Zi Ling.
He made no effort to hide anything, directly telling Zi Ling about her connection to Long Xiaoxiao.
And Zi Ling showed not a hint of displeasure. On the contrary, she wholeheartedly supported Chu Feng's decision — she even wanted to accompany him.
However, the Sect Master naturally would not allow Zi Ling to go with Chu Feng.
Even if the Sect Master had been willing, Chu Feng himself would not have agreed. This was, after all, a dangerous undertaking.
Thus, Chu Feng borrowed the Wolong Martial Sect's teleportation formation and headed straight for the Dragon Clan.
But just before his departure, Duan Liufeng quietly slipped a token into Chu Feng's hand.
It was a teleportation token of the Wolong Martial Sect.
With this token, never mind just the Sacred Light Heavens — anywhere at all, any teleportation formation whatsoever, as long as he stepped inside and used this token, he could lock onto the Wolong Martial Sect's location and teleport directly to it.
Through the Wolong Martial Sect's teleportation formation, Chu Feng arrived straight within the Dragon Clan's territory.
And with his current abilities, infiltrating the depths of the Dragon Clan was a trivial matter.
Gathering intelligence, naturally, was even more effortless for Chu Feng.
As he searched for Long Xiaoxiao's whereabouts, he also began asking about the truth behind what had happened.
And what Chu Feng discovered was that the matter of Long Xiaoxiao's marriage to the Sacred Light Clan was no longer a secret within the Dragon Clan.
Here, he obtained a far more detailed account.
The Sacred Light Clan had indeed arranged an alliance through marriage with the Dragon Clan.
They had specifically designated Long Xiaoxiao to be wed to Sacred Light Yu.
The Dragon Clan's patriarch was naturally in full agreement with this match.
But it was met with fierce opposition from Long Xiaoxiao herself — and to express her refusal, she had resorted to an extreme measure.
She had destroyed her own face as the price for demonstrating her resolve to reject the marriage.
This act naturally enraged the Sacred Light Clan.
But the furious Sacred Light Clan had no intention of letting Long Xiaoxiao off the hook.
They still demanded that Long Xiaoxiao marry into their clan.
Only now, the groom was no longer Sacred Light Yu — but a man named Sacred Light Jiahao.
And this Sacred Light Jiahao was hardly some distinguished young master of the Sacred Light Clan. He was one of their lowest-ranking clan members, said to be disabled and intellectually deficient.
Never mind Long Xiaoxiao's status as a princess of the Dragon Clan.
Just speaking of her talent alone, even Sacred Light Yu could not compare to her.
Long Xiaoxiao could be called a heaven-blessed prodigy throughout the entire Sacred Light Heavens.
Handing a Long Xiaoxiao like that to someone with an intellectual deficiency — what was the point?
The Sacred Light Clan had done it deliberately. It was their way of exacting revenge on Long Xiaoxiao.
Long Xiaoxiao didn't want to marry Sacred Light Yu?
Fine, the Sacred Light Clan would grant her wish.
But they also wanted everyone to know that any woman they set their eyes on must marry into the Sacred Light Clan.
The only difference was that the treatment would be worlds apart.
If marrying Sacred Light Yu was an honor, then marrying Sacred Light Jiahao was nothing short of humiliation.
Yet even so, the Dragon Clan's patriarch had still agreed.
Chu Feng could understand a patriarch choosing to compromise for the sake of his clan.
But as Long Xiaoxiao's father, sacrificing his own daughter like this — that was something Chu Feng could never accept.
And recalling all the things the Dragon Clan's patriarch had done before, the fury burning in Chu Feng's heart was already raging like wildfire.
After all, he knew clearly that, from beginning to end, the Dragon Clan's patriarch had been nothing more than a selfish, self-serving man.
