Chapter 177: Drawing the Wrath of All!

Yunxiao Sect.

Mist swirled around, the great hall towering aloft, as if it stood above the mortal world, transcending the dust of the mundane.

Inside a great hall, numerous Elders stood in green robes, faces solemn, lining both sides of the hall, the atmosphere grave and dignified.

On the high platform of the great hall, Yunxiao Sect Sect Master Mo Nantian sat in his seat, his hair half white and half black, like the merging of yin and yang, radiating an unfathomably mysterious aura.

"Zhou Bai, did your trip to deliver the invitations go smoothly?" Mo Nantian's voice was steady, carrying a hint of authority.

Elder Zhou Bai stepped forward and bowed.

Only to see his face darken to the extreme.

"Sect Master, the other factions were all notified without much trouble, but…"

"Hmm? Someone doesn't wish to attend?" Mo Nantian's gaze sharpened.

When interests are at stake, disputes are naturally inevitable.

But just who would dare not give their Yunxiao Sect face?

Zhou Bai gave a bitter smile and immediately began to explain.

"Sect Master, it's the Lin Family!"

Zhou Bai then recounted in detail everything that had happened at the Lin Family.

In his words, anger and indignation, he vividly described the Lin Family's arrogance and overbearingness, yet he never once mentioned his own arrogant attitude before the Lin Family people — but even if he had, no one would have thought there was anything wrong with it.

"How dare the Lin Family be so arrogant!"

"Hmph! A mere Lin Family dares to make an enemy of our Yunxiao Sect?"

"They're simply seeking death!"

Upon hearing this, the Elders were all enraged, and a sudden clamor immediately rose within the great hall.

In the eyes of these Yunxiao Sect higher-ups, the Lin Family was nothing more than a small clan in a tiny corner of the land — to dare challenge their authority was simply courting death.

Mo Nantian's face turned iron-blue upon hearing this.

He said in a deep voice, "That Lin Family Patriarch Lin Feng actually has the Cultivation of Hedao Seven Layers?"

Zhou Bai nodded, his expression grave: "That's right, Sect Master. That Lin Feng's Cultivation has indeed reached Hedao Seven Layers; even I am no match for him."

"What's even more infuriating is that he blustered that the Lingxiao Treasure Land all belongs to the Lin Family, and that the Allocation Assembly is nothing but a joke."

"Outrageous!"

Mo Nantian was beside himself with rage and slammed the table as he rose.

The atmosphere within the great hall instantly plummeted to freezing.

His gaze was fierce, his expression one of grinding teeth, as if he wanted to devour Lin Feng alive.

But anger aside, Mo Nantian had not lost his reason.

A Cultivation of Hedao Seven Layers forced Mo Nantian to take it seriously as well.

Lin Feng's strength was already comparable to that of their Yunxiao Sect's Supreme Elder — such strength was deeply feared.

With Yunxiao Sect's current strength, taking on the Lin Family head-on would likely come at no small cost.

"Let me think about this matter…"

Mo Nantian deliberated for a moment, a flash of vicious calculation passing through his eyes.

He looked at Zhou Bai and asked, "Where is my nephew? Why hasn't he returned?"

Zhou Bai's expression dimmed, and he sighed: "Zhang Gutong once crippled a Lin Family Tudi. Now the Lin Family has captured him — I'm afraid his fate is already grim."

"Hmph! The Lin Family is digging their own grave!" Mo Nantian snorted coldly, a flash of resolve crossing his eyes.

He'd been hesitating a moment ago, but now — hesitate, my ass!

This grudge must be avenged. They even dare to kill his nephew — seeking death!

Mo Nantian stood up and paced back and forth within the great hall, calculating in his mind how to deal with the Lin Family.

After a moment, he stopped, his gaze blazing as he looked at the Elders: "With the strength of our sect alone, it is enough to annihilate the Lin Family."

"But the Lin Family being so arrogant will naturally arouse public outrage! I have decided that at the Allocation Assembly, I will directly announce a campaign against the Lin Family, uniting the strength of all five prefectures to utterly destroy them!"

"The Sect Master is wise!" The Elders, upon hearing this, echoed in agreement one after another.

Mo Nantian was clever — taking on the Lin Family alone was not cost-effective for Yunxiao Sect, but if everyone joined in, it would be far simpler.

Isn't the Lin Family arrogant?

They even want to hog all thirteen Lingxiao Treasure Lands?

This has already drawn the wrath of all!

Cheers rose once again within the great hall. Zhou Bai's eyes flickered — this plan was not bad.

Uniting the strength of five prefectures against a mere small Lin Family would be as easy as turning over one's hand…

Half a month later, the Changfeng Prefecture Allocation Assembly was about to convene.

Lin Feng, dressed in a green robe, carried the Tianhong Sword at his side, and beside him followed Lin Xuan, her face full of anticipation.

"Clan Leader, Clan Leader, can I eat a bit more at the Allocation Assembly this time?" Lin Xuan, for her part, had no idea about the Allocation Assembly.

She had been well protected by the Lin Family. Upon returning, she had gone into closed-door cultivation, and now her Cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds, firmly securing her place as the Lin Family's number one genius.

"Eat, eat, eat — all you know is eating. We're going there to wreck the place, not to attend a banquet!" Lin Feng said, exasperated.

The girl was fine in every way, except she could never get over her gluttonous habit.

Only to see Lin Xuan stuff a few Void Spirit Pills into her mouth, then mutter: "Clan Leader is the worst — going to a banquet and won't even let me eat more, hmph!"

Lin Feng was covered in black lines, but said nothing more.

They stood atop the Seven Luminaries Divine Travel Boat, radiant light flowing all around them.

This Shenxing Boat's flying speed was extraordinarily astonishing.

But this thing was also a Spirit Stone-devouring monster. Flying from Ziyun City to Changfeng Prefecture, in just one day it had actually consumed fifty thousand Spirit Stones. If the Lin Family weren't so wealthy and powerful, they truly couldn't afford to use this thing.

But compared to Yellow Grade Puppets, the Shenxing Boat was already a very cheap tool.

After fifteen days of flight, the Shenxing Boat had already entered the territory of Changfeng Prefecture.

As one of the Western Six States, Changfeng Prefecture had always ranked near the top, and with Yunxiao Sect always being so dominant, even the allocation of Lingxiao Treasure Land was managed by them.

Thus Changfeng Prefecture was very famous in the Western Region.

Before long, a glint flashed in Lin Xuan's eyes. She pointed into the distance and said, "Clan Leader, someone is coming from over there."

Lin Feng looked over, his heart secretly on guard.

This time the Lin Family was going to the Allocation Assembly to cause trouble. Yunxiao Sect had probably already learned of it — would they send people to ambush the Lin Family this quickly?

The Shenxing Boat cut through the vast sky like a streak of flowing light.

And in the distance, another Flying Boat was approaching, though its speed was considerably slower.

"Sir, might I ask — are you a faction heading to attend the Allocation Assembly?"

Someone on that Flying Boat called out. Lin Feng was not afraid of this person, so he slowed his speed.

He saw three people standing on that Flying Boat — one elder and two youths.

There was also a banner on the Flying Boat, with the character "Xuan" embroidered on it.

"You look unfamiliar. May I ask which faction you belong to?"

The elder among the three spoke first. He smiled and sized Lin Feng up — so young, yet with such extraordinary bearing. He truly did not know which of the Western Six States this faction came from.

Lin Feng's gaze was sharp as a torch. He said coolly, "The Lin Family."

The moment those two words left his mouth, the elder was visibly startled. The young man and young woman beside him — his two Tudi — also showed looks of astonishment.

The name of the Lin Family had already spread across the land; the entire Daqian Dynasty knew of it.

"I am Zhao Xiu, Elder of the Xuan Gate of Yuchang Zhou. These two are my Tudi."

The elder smiled slightly, his gaze falling on Lin Xuan. He said in surprise, "This one — could she be the Lin Family Tudi who seized a place in the Top Ten at the Heaven's Pride Grand Meeting?"

The moment these words were spoken, Zhao Xiu's two Tudi instantly sharpened their gazes.
