"My friend overheard this information and got into a conflict with Zhan Feng because of it. I only stepped in to help my friend out of trouble, and that's when I crippled Zhan Feng."
Chu Feng couldn't confirm whether this information was true, but he felt it likely was, because everything Chun Wu had told him so far had proven accurate.
"Brother Wuqing, might your friend be Miss Chun Wu of the Piaomiao Immortal Peak?" the second of the Golden Robed Brothers asked.
"Yes, it's Chun Wu." Chu Feng nodded.
"I've heard about that. It's true that Miss Chun Wu was first harassed by Zhan Feng, and Zhan Feng struck first, seemingly trying to kill her. That's why Brother Wuqing intervened."
"Moreover, out of respect for the Piaomiao Immortal Aunt, even the Immortal Slaying Archipelago wouldn't lightly make a move against someone from the Piaomiao Immortal Peak. It seems Miss Chun Wu really did come into possession of some information she wasn't supposed to have." The second Golden Robed Brother seemed to be confirming that what Chu Feng said was correct.
"Brother Wuqing, this is no laughing matter. Can you be certain that what Miss Chun Wu said is definitely true?" the third Golden Robed Brother asked.
"Senior, I truly cannot be certain that everything she said is true, since I didn't see or hear it with my own eyes and ears. But as the saying goes, it's better to believe something exists than to dismiss it, especially when this concerns the lives of over two thousand members of the Remnant Night Demon Sect. Wouldn't you agree?" Chu Feng asked with a smile.
"This..." The third Golden Robed Brother was rendered speechless.
"Big Brother, I also think Brother Wuqing has a point. Look at how confident and unafraid Murong Xun is — he's most likely prepared for something."
"If none of the Nine Immortals were coming, that would be one thing. But if someone really does come, then with our current strength alone, we might not be able to put up a fight."
"After all, I've heard that the Nine Immortals of the Immortal Slaying Archipelago today are far beyond what they were in the past. Aside from the Ninth Immortal, all of them have already stepped into the Martial King realm."
"If it's only the Ninth Immortal, we brothers wouldn't fear him. But if, as Brother Wuqing says, two of them have come this time, then things could get very bad. We should stick to the original plan." The seventh Golden Robed Brother also spoke up to persuade them.
"According to what Chun Wu told me, two of them have indeed come. It seems to be the Eighth Immortal and the Ninth Immortal among the Nine Immortals," Chu Feng said.
"Right. Brother Seven and Brother Wuqing are correct. Since we already have the upper hand, we should lock down the situation firmly and not take any unnecessary risks." At this, Elder Liu also realized the gravity of the situation. Finally, he nodded and decided to follow the original plan.
"Nine Brother, look — the Remnant Night Demon Sect claims to be the strongest in the Eastern Sea. So this is what their 'strongest' amounts to: bullying the few with the many."
"Not only are they using two thousand experts to overwhelm our thousand, but even the disciples of their three protectors have joined forces to bully our Archipelago's Young Island Master. What do you think about that?"
However, at that very moment, two figures suddenly appeared in the sky beyond the battlefield. They were two elderly men with immensely powerful auras, standing in midair and gazing down at the battle with smiles.
One of them was a peak Martial Lord expert, while the other was actually a Martial King–level powerhouse. And at this moment, that Martial King–level powerhouse was pointing at the members of the Remnant Night Demon Sect, mocking them coldly.
"Eight Brother, in my opinion, the people of the Remnant Night Demon Sect are utterly shameless. With shameless creatures like these, you can't give them face, or they'll push their luck even further." The peak Martial Lord elder laughed coldly.
"Those two... could they be?"
