"Sometimes, showing a bit of humility might just save your life." After the colossal creature departed, Dantai Xue secretly sent her voice to Chu Feng. When facing a Martial Emperor, even she didn't dare let her guard down.
"Humble? If it were you, could you be humble?" Chu Feng asked with a smile.
"I..." But Dantai Xue didn't answer. Humility had its limits — some people were simply born with a defiant spirit that refused to submit even in death. Chu Feng was such a person, and so was Dantai Xue.
"Heh, Miss Dantai, thank you for your concern regardless. Don't worry — one day, I'll meet you in the Sacred Land of Martial. Until we meet again." Chu Feng smiled once more, then chased after the colossal figure as it moved further away.
The colossal creature quickened its pace and vanished into the blood mist in the blink of an eye. Chu Feng followed close behind and soon left the blood mist as well.
At this moment, only Dantai Xue remained in the terrifying blood mist. She gazed in the direction Chu Feng and the colossal creature had departed, watching for a long time before murmuring to herself: "Who exactly is this Chu Feng? Why would a Martial Emperor-level being want to find him?"
Dantai Xue pondered curiously but couldn't make sense of it no matter how hard she tried. In the end, she stopped thinking about it, leaped into the air, and headed in the direction the colossal creature had indicated — toward the Sacred Land of Martial.
As for Chu Feng, he naturally remained behind the Martial Emperor-level colossus.
Now without the cover of blood mist and with the distance between them shorter, Chu Feng could clearly make out the creature's appearance.
It was indeed not human, but it had a human body. The reason it couldn't be called human was its head — it resembled a dog, or more precisely, a wolf. In truth, it was neither dog nor wolf, but some creature Chu Feng had never seen before.
It stood hundreds of meters tall, like a towering ladder reaching the heavens. It wore golden armor, yet emitted no dazzling radiance.
What most attracted Chu Feng's attention was the weapon in the creature's hands — a scepter, a very peculiar one.
It seemed to grow from the creature's own flesh, as if scepter and being were one and the same. But there was no denying that this scepter contained a certain power — a power that inspired dread.
Along the way, Chu Feng had tried to communicate with the colossus, but it paid him no attention. Though it never rebuked him, it never acknowledged him either. They simply continued onward. Rather than saying it had asked Chu Feng to follow, it seemed more like it was leading the way for him.
"Chu Feng, this big dog-headed thing didn't save you for no reason. Could it be your relative? Hehe…" Eggie grinned mischievously, looking exceptionally pleased with herself.
"Cut the nonsense," Chu Feng replied with some exasperation. In a situation like this, the only one who could remain this composed — even cracking jokes — was Eggie.
Though Eggie's joke was ridiculous, in truth, Chu Feng was also speculating about the colossus's origins. Although he felt that a Martial Emperor-level being couldn't possibly be his relative, there must still be some connection between them.
Chu Feng even suspected that it was leading him toward the place where
At that thought, Chu Feng grew even more excited and followed more closely, afraid of missing the chance to unravel the mystery of his origins.
And under the colossus's guidance, Chu Feng did indeed arrive at the edge of the Heavenly Path, entering a broad corridor. This was also a territory, but it was several times more magnificent than the two Chu Feng had seen before — entirely not on the same level.
