"How did you know, miss?"
Hearing this, the parents of the Ye Immortal Clan's clan leader simultaneously turned to look at the guest elder.
"I have some personal grudges with Chu Feng, so I've always kept close tabs on matters concerning him."
"His grandmother was harmed by someone years ago, but the faction that harmed her was annihilated by Flame. The method of annihilation was identical to the techniques of Chu Feng's grandmother's sect."
"Chu Feng's grandmother is most likely the one standing before us right now — not only alive, but far from weak."
The guest elder said.
"Miss, do you know her cultivation level?" The clan leader's father asked.
"I don't, but you should still be cautious. If you trust me, why not let me restrain her?"
"I possess a secret treasure specifically designed for containment." As the guest elder spoke, she produced a transparent object.
It wasn't large — resting in her palm, it resembled a crystal coffin.
The clan leader's parents examined it carefully, somewhat skeptical.
After all, people of their caliber trusted their own methods above all else.
But the Ye Immortal Clan's leader said, "I naturally trust the guest elder. Let's use the guest elder's method to restrain her."
Hearing this, her parents were somewhat surprised and wanted to say something.
But the Ye Immortal Clan's leader looked at them. "Father, Mother, you were thinking the same thing, weren't you?"
Seeing this, the words already on their lips were swallowed back down, and they instead expressed their trust in the guest elder.
The guest elder didn't stand on ceremony. She formed hand seals and hurled the object downward.
The object not only grew in size but also passed through Chu Feng's grandmother's body, trapping her within it.
Then, with a change in the hand seals, the object began to shrink — but it only shrank until it just barely made contact with Chu Feng's grandmother's body before stopping.
With that, she was lifted out.
"Can you wake her up?" the clan leader's father asked.
"Waking her is pointless. According to the rumors, she's insane," the guest elder said.
"Insane?" The father and two children were all somewhat surprised.
"Yes, she's insane." The guest elder's answer was firm.
"Our clan's elder perished here, most likely because of her. If we can't uncover the truth, then we can only pin the blame on her," the clan leader's father said.
"Pin the blame on her, then. That's fine."
"But I wouldn't recommend forcibly waking her."
"This treasure of mine shares a similar principle with spatial worlds. Originally, it could expand and contract freely, making it convenient for storage."
"But now, it can't contract any further because she's creating resistance."
"I suspect her cultivation may be even more powerful than I anticipated."
"If she were to go berserk, the two Supreme Elders might not necessarily be able to subdue her," the guest elder said.
"Miss, are you saying that among this generation of cultivators, there exists someone who surpasses the Fourth Rank Heavenly God?"
The clan leader's parents asked with smiles.
But those smiles were not genuine — they carried an undercurrent of sarcasm.
"Elders, if you have your own methods, you're welcome to determine her cultivation level yourselves."
"If you're truly not afraid of her going berserk, you can also use your own methods to wake her. But I'll be getting as far away as possible — I value my life."
The moment these words left the guest elder's mouth, the clan leader's parents dropped all pretense of courtesy and prepared to take action.
But the clan leader hastily stopped them.
"Father, Mother, I'm well aware of your strength. But our Ye Immortal Clan has only recently emerged into the world."
"The guest elder is far more knowledgeable about the current cultivation world. We should still err on the side of caution."
"Why not bring her back to the warship? Our clan transferred the Ancestral Grand Formation onto the warship precisely as a precaution."
"Even if she truly is that powerful, with the Ancestral Grand Formation on the warship, we'll have nothing to fear."
"The warship is just outside anyway — it's no trouble," the Ye Immortal Clan's leader said.
"Xiancheng, do you really believe that the cultivation of this generation's cultivators could surpass your parents?" the clan leader's mother asked.
"I have the utmost confidence in Father and Mother's cultivation, but… better safe than sorry," the Ye Immortal Clan's leader said.
"Then let's go with Xiancheng's decision," the clan leader's father said.
After that, they brought Chu Feng's grandmother back to the warship.
