The Clan Master Can t possibly Be A Mortal

Chapter 288: Chapter 288: Biyue Villa, Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect
Misty Peak summit.

Inside a newly built guest hall.

Ye Feng looked at Long Qitian and Xia Tiantian standing before him, his expression gradually turning peculiar.

The man is called “Qitian,” and the woman “Tiantian.”

This name pairing… is simply perfect!

Ye Feng couldn’t help but criticize inwardly.

“Sect Master Ye, this is a gift from me and Qitian. We heard that when Qitian was young and ignorant, he offended you. We hope for your forgiveness.” Xia Tiantian took out a brocade box and gently opened it.

Inside lay a piece of jadeite.

This object contained rich spiritual energy and could be melted down after being tempered with spiritual fire. It was an excellent material for tool refining, worth no less than one hundred spirit stones.

For the current Ye Feng, one hundred spirit stones were merely a trifle.

But for this young couple, it represented a significant expenditure they needed to save up for quite some time.

“Young people can always be impulsive at times.” Ye Feng accepted the brocade box and the jadeite.

Seeing this, Long Qitian and Xia Tiantian both breathed a sigh of relief.

Xia Tiantian took out another brocade box from her storage ring, and after opening it, she presented a golden invitation with both hands.

“This is an invitation from the master of Biyue Villa, cordially inviting Sect Master Ye or a disciple from your sect to the villa to attend a grand event.”

“Biyue Villa?”

Ye Feng received the invitation, unfamiliar with this power.

Xia Tiantian explained, “Biyue Villa is located in a remote mountain range, five hundred miles to the north, where the spiritual energy is abundant but rarely explored by people. Thus, it was occupied by our first-generation master, who established the hidden sect of Biyue Villa, which has continued to this day.”

“How is the overall situation of your villa?” Ye Feng asked out of curiosity.

“Our Biyue Villa doesn’t have many members, just over a hundred in total. But when it comes to heritage and strength, we can stand shoulder to shoulder with old one-star forces like the Liuyun Sect,” revealed Xia Tiantian, imparting a very important piece of information.

“But why have I never heard of it?” Ye Feng grew more puzzled.

Logically, such a power couldn’t have no reputation.

Anticipating Ye Feng’s question, Xia Tiantian explained, “Our first-generation master liked to live in isolation, so our villa never applied for star-level sect certification. We basically don’t get involved in external disputes and rarely appear in public, known to very few.”

Long Qitian added, “That’s right, there’s only a small town with a population of tens of thousands near Biyue Villa, which is not famous. Most of the things needed in the villa can be bought in the town, so there’s no need to go too far out.”

“Oh, I see.” Ye Feng nodded.

No wonder he hadn’t heard of Biyue Villa’s name; it turned out to be a hidden force.

Ye Feng flipped open the invitation.

“Greetings Sect Master Ye, I am Luo Cheng, the current master of Biyue Villa. I sincerely invite you to attend a New Year’s gathering in half a month. If you are too busy, you can also send a disciple from your sect. The meeting place is located in Tongpan City, several tens of miles from the villa…”

That was the general content of the invitation.

Including key information such as time and location.

Ye Feng closed the invitation and said, “In half a month, if I am not available, I will arrange for another disciple to attend.”

Long Qitian and Xia Tiantian quickly bowed their hands, “We will personally guide Sect Master Ye or a disciple from your sect when the time comes.”

The two parties chatted casually for a few more sentences.

Afterward, Long Qitian and Xia Tiantian were eager to return home and bid farewell to Ye Feng and Long Tianxing. They stepped onto a flying sword and flew towards Whitefloat City.

“Sect Leader, should I also go back?” Long Tianxing asked.

“As you wish.” Ye Feng waved his hand dismissively.

Long Tianxing thought for a moment and then mounted the Qingfeng Sword, heading towards Whitefloat City.

…

In the southern part of Whitefloat City.

Within an ancient and simple pavilion.

Former Heixuan Gate disciple Li Hanshao and former Xuenyun Sect disciple Wu De were standing in the pavilion’s hall, bowing to a figure shrouded in black smoke, and said in unison:

“The Whitefloat Two Double Heroes greet the protector.”

The shadowy figure gave a slight nod but did not speak.

Li Hanshao exchanged a glance with Wu De, both feeling extremely uneasy.

“Protector, what exactly are the Sect Master’s instructions this time?”

In the end, it was Li Hanshao who mustered the courage to ask.

Half a month ago, Wu De and Li Hanshao had left Whitefloat City and headed for the Ancient Town of Quicksand to expand their reach, unexpectedly encountering a mysterious strong man in Element Gathering Realm who claimed to be a “Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect Protector.” They were astounded by his abilities and attempted to take him as their master.

However, the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect Protector did not take disciples but instead assigned them as Outer Sect Affairs Managers for the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect, responsible for liaising.

With the aid of a large number of elixirs provided by the Protector, they had already broken through to the very peak of the ninth layer of Qi Refinement, though their foundations were somewhat unstable, so they did not dare to attempt breaking into the Element Gathering Realm just yet.

Armed with the spiritual artifacts in their possession, together, they could even slay an ordinary cultivator at the peak of the Qi Refining Realm.

A long while later, the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect Protector turned around, looking at Li Hanshao and Wu De with a pair of eyes that were chillingly cold and terrifying, and spoke with an indifferent voice,

“This time, I’m here to assign a task to you.”

“What task?”

The two of them were very curious.

Snap!

An ancient book fell on the table, kicking up dust.

“This is the construction blueprint for the Demon-locking Tower. You are to build a Demon-locking Tower in a valley thirty miles south of Whitefloat City, near the banks of the Flowing Water River. Purchase all the required materials yourselves, and as for the expenses, I will cover them.”

The Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect Protector placed a bag of spirit stones on the table.

Li Hanshao opened it.

Dazzling spiritual lights burst forth, casting his face in a spectrum of colors, albeit somewhat eerie.

“Five middle-grade spirit stones and over three hundred lower-grade ones, Protector, your generosity is truly astounding!”

Wu De and Li Hanshao were stunned.

“The details of the task are recorded in the ancient tome. See to it that you complete it within seven days. At that time, I will come with others to inspect.”

Having said that, the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect Protector left the place.

Li Hanshao and Wu De, looking at the abundant spirit stones in the bag, glanced at each other, and the smiles on their faces gradually twisted.

“He he he!”

The strange laughter echoed for a long time.

Whitefloat City, Dragon Mansion.

“My son, you have finally returned!” Long Zhenchuan looked at Long Qitian standing before him, who had completely turned over a new leaf, and was gradually moved to tears.

“Father, it turns out that your friend is actually the young uncle of Biyue Villa’s Master, and also the steward of the Villa. Although his cultivation level isn’t high, his status is. He took great care of Tianxing and me.”

Long Qitian recounted his life and cultivation in Biyue Villa.

Hearing this, Long Zhenchuan was deeply comforted.

After many days apart, his once unruly child had not only found a future Dual Cultivation Companion but even made a breakthrough to the peak of the seventh layer of Qi Refinement—no less formidable than Long Zhenchuan, the head of the Long Family.

“Tianxing has seen Uncle.” Xia Tiantian said softly from the side.

Looking at Xia Tiantian, who was bold, decent-looking, knowledgeable, and reasonable, Long Zhenchuan was very pleased.

“Tiantian, from now on, you are Long Zhenchuan’s daughter-in-law. Here, this jade is for you,” Long Zhenchuan said, presenting a warm, dark-red jadeite to Xia Tiantian.

“Whoa! Father, how can you give the love token my mother gave you to Tiantian?” Long Qitian’s eyes widened when he saw the jadeite.

“From now on, this piece of jade will be the heirloom of our Long Family. Pass it down to your children and their partners, generation after generation,” declared Long Zhenchuan, filled with a sudden surge of enthusiasm.

“Heirloom!”

Holding the jadeite, Xia Tiantian suddenly felt its weight like that of a thousand pounds.

Outside the gate.

Long Tianxing, listening to the laughter and joyous chatter inside the hall, did not enter but instead curved his lips into a smile, feeling heartened by the prosperity of the Long Family.

“Hopefully, cousin will continue on this path and walk steadily onwards!”

Long Tianxing changed direction and headed to the City Lord’s Mansion.
