Chapter 144: The Invitation of the Netherworld Society

Bang!

"Heh, succeeded again!"

Chu Feng reached out and grabbed.

Another round and jade-like Eight-Grade Yangyuan Huichun Pill landed in his hand.

In just one hour from start to finish, he had already refined three Eight-Grade Yangyuan Huichun Pills.

And every single pill was as crystalline and translucent as crystal, shimmering with brilliant light.

Definitely top-tier quality.

"Alright, now the Duke of Chen, the King of Reliance, and the Xianbei Emperor can all be saved!"

Chu Feng put away the three pills and walked straight out of the secret chamber.

Rumble, rumble, rumble...

The secret chamber door opened.

Tuoba Miaohan, who was guarding the entrance, was the first to notice the situation.

To ensure Chu Feng's safety, Tuoba Miaohan had personally led experts to guard the entrance.

During this time, she had even turned her head to look at the secret chamber from time to time.

In her heart, she was constantly praying to the heavens to ensure that Chu Feng could succeed in his refining.

And this one hour of waiting was the longest time she had ever experienced in her life.

A whole day on ordinary days did not feel as long as this one hour.

"Marquis, how is the situation?" Tuoba Miaohan asked, her face full of anxiety.

"Hehe, Princess, please set your heart at ease, everything went smoothly!"

Chu Feng smiled slightly and handed a porcelain bottle to Tuoba Miaohan.

Tuoba Miaohan took the medicine bottle with both hands, and after confirming it was the Eight-Grade Yangyuan Huichun Pill, the heart that had been hanging in her chest finally settled back down.

Immediately following that was a burst of wild joy.

She actually threw herself into Chu Feng's embrace uncontrollably.

Such an unexpected scene truly left the surrounding crowd dumbfounded.

Even Lu Shuwan, who was nearby, had not realized that this princess was so bold.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

"Princess, please show some restraint!"

Chu Feng gave a light cough.

He also had not expected the other party to be so excited.

But to be honest, it felt quite good, especially the scale of certain areas.

"Ah?"

Only then did Tuoba Miaohan notice her own impropriety, and with a blushing face, she said, "I ask the Marquis to forgive my sin, Miaohan was for a moment..."

"Since the pills have been successfully refined, Princess should hurry and go save the Emperor first!"

"Ah? Right, right, right!"

Only then did Tuoba Miaohan remember the most important matter at hand.

Chu Feng was also a bit ashamed.

If he hadn't reminded her, this silly woman probably would have thrown her father to the back of her mind.

"I ask the Marquis to go rest first, and after Miaohan finishes treating my father, I will express my gratitude to the Marquis!"

"Mm, alright, wait!"

Chu Feng suddenly called out to stop Tuoba Miaohan, "Princess, have you seen where my wife went?"

"Ah? Your wife!"

Tuoba Miaohan looked left and right, "She was just here a moment ago, how did she suddenly disappear? Have any of you seen the Marquis's wife?"

"No... no, we haven't?"

The crowd looked at each other in dismay; no one had noticed where Lu Shuwan had gone.

"Hmm?"

Tuoba Miaohan was secretly shocked, "A bunch of useless fellows, you didn't even see a living person, are your eyes blind?"

"Princess, forgive us! Princess, forgive us! Princess, forgive us!"

The group of guards hurriedly knelt to beg for mercy.

They had been dutifully guarding the vicinity the whole time and truly had not noticed where Lu Shuwan had gone.

"Damn it, could a living person just evaporate into thin air?"

Chu Feng was secretly annoyed.

Immediately, he released his Mental Power with all his might to search for Lu Shuwan's aura.

Who would have thought that after searching a large circle,

he did not find even the slightest trace of Lu Shuwan's aura in the entire Wang Ting.

"What!"

Chu Feng's pupils dilated instantly.

Lu Shuwan only had Innate Perfection Stage cultivation now, so finding her should have been the easiest thing for Chu Feng.

Who would have thought that after searching the entire Wang Ting, there was no trace of her at all.

There were only two possibilities for such a situation.

One was that she was no longer in the Wang Ting at this moment.

The other is that Lu Shuwan has met with misfortune at this moment.

"Damn it, who exactly captured her?"

Chu Feng's eyes instantly began to spit flames, and his pair of iron fists clenched so tightly they crackled.

It was also at this moment that Chu Feng suddenly sensed something unusual.

"Eh, what is that?"

Chu Feng saw a throwing dart actually pinned to a roof beam.

A letter was also pierced by the throwing dart.

Chu Feng flew up to take the throwing dart down and opened the letter inside.

After finishing reading, Chu Feng was instantly enraged on the spot.

"Damn Netherworld Society, it's you guys playing tricks again!"

This letter was left by an assassin from the Netherworld Society.

It stated clearly that they had kidnapped Lu Shuwan and also demanded that Chu Feng go to a certain place alone.

If he did not go, then Chu Feng should forget about ever seeing Lu Shuwan again in the future.

"Marquis, what happened?"

"See for yourself!"

Chu Feng handed the letter in his hand to Tuoba Miaohan.

After Tuoba Miaohan finished reading the letter in her hand, she was also greatly shocked.

"It's actually the Netherworld Society, they actually..."

"I must go save my wife now, Princess, farewell!"

"Hey, Marquis..."

Before she could finish speaking, Chu Feng had already disappeared from where he stood.

"Aiya, why are you so impulsive? At least bring a few more people!"

Tuoba Miaohan stamped her feet in anger.

However, she still had a very important matter to attend to right now, which was to treat her own Imperial Father.

Once her Imperial Father recovered, she would immediately lead troops to go and support Chu Feng.

"These guys are really cautious enough, they didn't just let me go to their base alone!"

Chu Feng had originally thought about charging straight toward their base.

But he dared not confirm whether it was truly at Nanzhi Mountain in Fanzhou, Zhao Guo.

Regarding this, he could only follow the other party's demands and head to the destination.

About half an hour later, Chu Feng arrived at the location marked on the letter.

"This is the place!"

Chu Feng descended from the air and searched all around for the target person.

Very quickly.

A man wearing a bamboo hat and a black cloth covering his face appeared in Chu Feng's line of sight.

"May I ask if you are the Champion Marquis, Lord Chu Feng?"

"That is correct!"

Chu Feng responded indifferently, "Who are you?"

"This humble one is just a small pawn, not worth mentioning!"

The man continued, "I am here to escort Lord Champion Marquis to our Netherworld Society."

"Enough nonsense, lead the way immediately!"

"Very well, my Lord!"

The man behaved very politely.

Even though Chu Feng appeared very impatient, he still maintained a stable temperament.

After the two set off, they headed straight toward Fanzhou of Zhao Guo.

Finally, they stopped near a large mountain.

"What place is this?"

"Reporting to my Lord, this is Nanzhi Mountain!"

"Oh?"

It was indeed consistent with the intelligence provided by Helante.

This guy really has some ability, to even be able to investigate the other party's base.

Chu Feng muttered to himself.

Helante is truly mysterious enough; he seems to know quite a few things, and I wonder where exactly he gets this information from?

"Lead the way!"

"Good!"

The two continued on their way.

After traveling for a distance, the two entered an area.

This area had a huge plaza.

A group of people stood in the center of the plaza.

Among this crowd, Chu Feng saw the figure of Lu Shuwan at a single glance.

"Shuwan!"

"General!"

Lu Shuwan ran quickly toward Chu Feng's side, yet not a single person among those surrounding them moved to stop her.

They watched helplessly as Lu Shuwan ran toward Chu Feng.

Chu Feng pulled Lu Shuwan into his embrace.

"Shuwan, it is all my fault for letting you be frightened!"

"No, it was my lack of caution that allowed them to capture me."

Lu Shuwan berated herself for being incompetent.

She had caused Chu Feng to come to this place of trouble.

"Alright, alright, it is fine as long as you are safe!"

Chu Feng gently wiped the tears from the corners of Lu Shuwan's eyes, "Wait for me to deal with them, and then we shall go home!"

"Mm!"

Lu Shuwan nodded heavily, then stood very obediently behind Chu Feng.

"Lord Champion Marquis, a pleasure to meet you!" the leader among the black-robed figures spoke first.

"Heh, you went to such great lengths to lure me here, isn't it just to get rid of me?"

Chu Feng sneered, "Come on, make your move!"

"Heh, the Champion Marquis must have misunderstood!"

The black-robed figure said with a smile, "Inviting the Champion Marquis here this time is actually to discuss an important matter!"

"Hmph, is this how you invite someone?"

"I ask the Champion Marquis to forgive our offense; we were forced by circumstances, and we will certainly apologize to the Champion Marquis later!"

"Enough with the nonsense, what exactly is your purpose in having me come here?"

"We specifically invite the Champion Marquis to join our Netherworld Society and serve in the position of Great Elder!"
