"Haha."
Chu Feng chuckled, then asked, "And you? Did you get what you wanted?"
In truth, Fuxing had never told Chu Feng the real reason she had joined the Seven Realms Sacred Hall.
But Chu Feng could guess.
The successor of the Heavenly Master Divine Sect, joining their sworn rivals, the Seven Realms Sacred Hall.
There had to be a special purpose.
"Mm, I'm preparing to leave the Seven Realms Sacred Hall," Fuxing said.
"Let me ask you something. The treasure in my mother's cultivation site — did you take it?"
Suddenly, Chu Feng spoke.
Hearing this, Fuxing's brows furrowed, and she looked somewhat guilty.
But she still replied, "How did you know?"
"That cultivation site was sustained by a treasure. Once that treasure was removed, the site was more than half ruined and wouldn't recover for a hundred years."
"I've never seen that treasure myself."
"But I could tell it hadn't been removed long ago."
"But who in the Seven Realms Sacred Hall would do something like that without reason?"
"You, the successor of the Heavenly Master Divine Sect, are by far the most suspicious."
Chu Feng said.
"Chu Feng, I'm sorry."
"I know Senior Jie Ranqing meant something extraordinary to you — even just the things she left behind."
"But this treasure is of great use to me. I can compensate you with something else."
Fuxing's face was full of apologies as she produced a Universe Bag and offered it to Chu Feng.
Chu Feng did not take the Universe Bag, nor did he respond to Fuxing's offer.
Instead, he asked, "Fuxing, in your heart, are we friends?"
Fuxing pondered for a moment, then nodded. "Yes."
"Then say no more. Since you need it, I'll make the decision on my mother's behalf — that treasure is yours."
Chu Feng said.
Fuxing was taken aback.
She had expected that once Chu Feng learned of this, things would be serious.
She never imagined it would turn out like this.
But this only proved how much Chu Feng cared about her.
The bond of friendship, to Chu Feng, had never been mere words.
At this moment, she deeply felt how much Chu Feng treasured that bond.
"Chu Feng, thank you," Fuxing said.
"We're friends — no need for thanks."
Chu Feng said nonchalantly.
But what Chu Feng didn't know was that Fuxing's gratitude wasn't for his willingness to let the matter go.
It was for the fact that he truly considered her a friend.
"Chu Feng, I can tell you."
"The truth is, I came to the Seven Realms Sacred Hall to reclaim treasures that originally belonged to my Heavenly Master Divine Sect."
"These treasures will help the seniors of my Heavenly Master Divine Sect recover."
"So it's not that I stole the treasure Senior Jie Ranqing used to set up the cultivation site."
"That treasure always belonged to my Heavenly Master Divine Sect."
"But don't misunderstand — I'm not saying this with any other intent."
"Because I know Senior Jie Ranqing was absolutely a good person."
"What I want to say is this."
"Everything I came for, I've already obtained."
"My Master, along with the seniors of my Heavenly Master Divine Sect, are about to recover."
"Though our numbers are few, our strength is by no means lacking."
"Perhaps we can join forces to deal with the Seven Realms Sacred Hall."
Fuxing said.
"If the opportunity arises, certainly."
The reason Chu Feng said this was that while Fuxing was the successor of the Heavenly Master Divine Sect, she seemed more like someone carrying out orders.
Whether she could truly make decisions on her own — that was hard to say.
But more importantly, while Fuxing herself was decent enough, that didn't necessarily mean everyone else in the Heavenly Master Divine Sect was the same.
Even though Chu Feng had a favorable impression of the Heavenly Master Divine Sect, that didn't guarantee every member was a good person.
Only through real contact could that be determined.
"Chu Feng, how can I reach you?" Fuxing asked.
"You can send me a message at the Sect Master City of the Ancestral Martial Realm."
