Chapter 1877

Mo Long Lao Zu observed his emotional changes and asked lightly, "What is your relationship with her?"

"She is my... a very good friend."

Xiao Feng originally wanted to say she was his wife, but worried he might be blackmailed over it, so he changed his wording.

"A very good friend? How good? Can you compensate my clan's losses for her? If you can repay the Qi Luck she owes, I could consider letting her go." Mo Long Lao Zu said.

"How do we repay the Qi Luck?" Xiao Feng did not directly agree, but first asked, lest the other side make an exorbitant demand.

Although anxious, he had not lost his reason.

After all, he had weathered many storms over the years; he still possessed this composure.

As long as Xun Shuang Xianzi is not killed, there is still a chance. She bears an important mission; ordinary venerables dare not move her, and even a Dao Ancestor–level Cang Qiong Zhu would need to consider it seriously.

The reason she was merely captured is likely this.

Otherwise, if the Guiyu clan's Qi Luck were truly harmed, the Qinglong Venerable would probably strike first.

Mo Long Lao Zu said, "Qi Luck is hard to exchange, so I don't expect you to repay it with Qi Luck; offering treasures of sufficient value will do."

"Sufficient value? How much is that?" Xiao Feng asked again.

Mo Long Lao Zu chuckled, "That depends on Qinglong; she handles this, and it's not really my concern. I merely noticed your aura resembles that woman's, so I casually inquired—and happened to hit the mark."

Their auras are similar…

It's more than similar; they can practically be switched at will.

Xiao Feng nodded slightly, "Thank you for the reminder, Senior. I'll visit that side another day and seek Qinglong Senior's advice."

Mo Long Lao Zu said, "I can give you a ride."

"Oh? That would be great!" Xiao Feng exclaimed happily upon hearing it.

Every venerable has teleportation ability; the higher the realm, the farther the distance.

An existence of Mo Long Lao Zu's level can basically go anywhere in the Myriad Heavens Battlefield. Having such a big shot help open a gate can save a lot of time!

But he and Mo Long Lao Zu have no kinship; why would the other help him like this?

"Senior, do you have any conditions in exchange?" Xiao Feng asked, not wanting to take a favor for nothing and incur a debt.

Mo Long Lao Zu replied, "It's just a trivial effort, no conditions. If you succeed in taking that woman away and never return, that will be my greatest reward."

Hearing that, Xiao Feng couldn't help but entertain many thoughts.

It seems Mo Long Lao Zu wants to drive Xun Shuang Xianzi out of the Void Sea…

Upon reflection, that seems plausible.

Xun Shuang Xianzi's identity is special; the higher-level NPCs fear her more and dare not act rashly.

Yet for some reason, she continually absorbs the Guiyu clan's Qi Luck.

This puts the Guiyu venerables in a bind: they can't kill her, and if they drive her away, she will simply return via the Void Laws, making her extremely troublesome.

Now imprisoning her is also a helpless measure.

They are actually hoping someone will come quickly to take Xun Shuang Xianzi away; Xiao Feng's appearance now is exactly what the Guiyu venerables most desire.

Thinking this way, Xun Shuang Xianzi should face no danger.

However…

This is merely speculation; it may not be correct.

Moreover, she is pregnant; being held in the Eternal Frost Prison, it's unknown whether she will suffer harm or disturb the fetal qi…

"Alright, I promise Senior, I'll take her away as soon as possible and never return to the Void Sea. Please help me open the Void Gate and give me a lift!" Xiao Feng said.

Mo Long Lao Zu said, "No rush, it's still early. I have many cultivators of my clan here who have heard your story and are eager to see your prowess. Since you've come, why not give them some face and offer them some pointers?"

Xiao Feng found it hard to refuse.

With Mo Long Lao Zu's help in teleportation, he could save at least two or three months of travel; staying a bit longer to fight two battles would still be worthwhile.

Still, he modestly replied, "Senior, you're joking; I have no story, just luck that gave me a relatively strong talent—I dare not presume to give pointers."

Mo Long Lao Zu chuckled, "Young, strong yet unarrogant—very good."

As he spoke, its massive body fluttered in the air.

A special energy spread out, forming a vast field that enveloped the Yingke Star.

【Tip: You have entered the temporary domain set up by Mo Long Lao Zu, which is equivalent to an arena; defeat does not result in death!】

The system popped up a tip.

Xiao Feng was a bit surprised; he didn't expect an NPC to be able to create an arena on its own.

This is likely because Mo Long Lao Zu is one of the Guiyu clan's leaders, possessing many privileges in the Void Sea; otherwise, elsewhere in the Myriad Heavens Battlefield, such permission would not exist.

Since it's an arena domain, there's no need to worry about killing powerful aquatic beings or damaging the planet's surface.

Mo Long Lao Zu said, "Here we have seven ancestral gods of my clan; six of them wish to spar with you. You may choose the order—except for the Black Water Divine Turtle, those six ancestral gods are all available."

Seven ancestral gods, six of them want to get hit…

Hmm, I'll oblige!

Xiao Feng, still mounted on his crane, swept his gaze over the seven ancestral gods and many God King–level experts.

Aside from the Black Water Divine Turtle, the remaining six great ancestral gods include two dragon-type beings: one Red Dragon and one Golden Dragon, both around level 1800, comparable to the Black Water Divine Turtle.

The other four are modeled after a river clam, an octopus, a toad, and a whale.

In terms of level, the weakest is the river clam at 1550, while the strongest is the octopus at 1900.

After looking them over, Xiao Feng said, "Fellow Daoist Fushui Bi Chan, shall we spar first?"

He picked one that was neither strong nor weak, a level 1700 ancestral god.

The Fushui Bi Chan leapt out and replied, "Exactly my intention. Fellow Daoist Xiao Feng, please instruct me!"

Speaking, it launched an attack, behind which appeared a massive seal of corrosion law—a rather special, highly aggressive force.

The black law power, like a vortex, sought to swallow Xiao Feng.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Feng remained calm and composed; even He Xianzi, who was tasked with the mount's duty, showed no fear.

To Xiao Feng, the Ancestral God was simply too weak; clashing with it posed no danger at all.

With a thought, a diagram of the Three-legged Golden Crow's law appeared behind him, and the surrounding temperature rose sharply.

He then pressed forward with one hand, releasing the elemental magic "Hand of the Fire God" powered by the Golden Crow, and struck at the corrosive vortex.

Boom—

In an instant, the corrosive water splashed everywhere, and a large portion of it was vaporized by the Golden Crow's fire, forming toxic gas that spread throughout the area.

"What powerful law power!" the Corrosive Water Azure Toad exclaimed.

It launched another attack, opening its toad mouth, flicking its tongue, and spewing a large amount of corrosive poison gas, which flew toward Xiao Feng like a barrage of arrows.

Such power could threaten other Ancestral Gods, but to Xiao Feng it was trivial.

He simply didn't want the opponent to lose too embarrassingly, so he didn't go all out right away.

The Golden Crow pattern behind him sprang to life, outputting vast law power; golden true solar fire blazed, weaving an impenetrable defensive net around his body.

No matter how the Corrosive Water Azure Toad attacked, it could not harm him in the slightest.
