"Do you know of the Cloud Sword Sect?"

Gu Chenfeng looked at the two and asked.

"We do." The Grand Commander respectfully replied, "Ancestor, the Sect Leader of the Cloud Sword Sect is at the Middle Stage of the Immortal Emperor Realm, and within the sect, there are four Elders, all at the Immortal Emperor Realm."

Gu Chenfeng smiled faintly, "Go and invite them here."

"As you command!" The Grand Commander responded respectfully, and the two figures simultaneously vanished.

Feng Li then ordered, "Quickly! Prepare the banquet immediately!"

"Ancestor! Please!" Feng Yueji respectfully made a 'please' gesture.

"Welcome, Ancestor!" The entire Feng Family greeted with respect, and excitement was written all over their faces.

Gu Chenfeng's bold action for the Feng Family really made the family proud.

...

Above the Cloud Sword Sect.

Two figures suddenly appeared, their terrifying aura enveloping the mountains where the Cloud Sword Sect was located.

The Immortal Emperor beside smiled slightly, "Grand Commander, the strength of this Cloud Sword Sect is not weak, with five Immortal Emperors joining forces, they might be able to put up a slight challenge to you."

"Perhaps." The Grand Commander grinned.

The sudden terrifying aura scared the disciples of the Cloud Sword Sect out of their wits.

Inside the Cloud Sword Sect palace.

"Late Peak Stage of the Immortal Emperor!" The Sect Leader's face changed drastically and he immediately vanished.

"Late Peak Stage of the Immortal Emperor!" The Elders of the Cloud Sword Sect were also shocked and quickly vanished.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Above the palace of the Cloud Sword Sect, the Sect Leader and the four Elders appeared, their expressions grave as if facing a formidable enemy.

When they saw the Grand Commander, their faces changed again and their eyes flashed with intense fear.

The Sect Leader of the Cloud Sword Sect clasped his fists and asked, "Commander Shangguan, what brings you here?"

"The Ancestor has summoned you, follow me," Commander Shangguan said coldly, in a commanding tone that brooked no refusal.

The Sect Leader of the Cloud Sword Sect and the four Elders exchanged a glance, puzzling over who this Ancestor was.

Other than the Palace Master, they'd never heard of another Ancestor existing in the Celestial Shadow Immortal Palace.

Though they were puzzled, they did not dare defy the command.

Cloud Sword Sect's strength was insufficient before the Celestial Shadow Immortal Palace. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Commander Shangguan alone could effortlessly destroy the Cloud Sword Sect.

The Sect Leader of the Cloud Sword Sect and the four Elders, with trepidation and anxiety in their hearts, followed Commander Shangguan toward the direction of the Feng Family.

All the way there, their hearts were filled with anxiety and fear.

"Sect Leader, who exactly is this so-called Ancestor and why are we being summoned?" One Elder couldn't help but transmit his question, deeply fearful.

The Sect Leader's face turned slightly solemn, and he replied through the transmission, "I do not know either, but for Commander Shangguan to come personally, he must have some noteworthy reason."

"Could it be the Celestial Shadow Immortal Palace's progenitor?" Another Elder speculated via transmission.

The Sect Leader took a deep breath and replied through transmission, "Whatever may be the case, let's go and see first, do not act rashly; the Celestial Shadow Immortal Palace is beyond our ability to provoke."

But as they arrived at Void Ghost City.

The Sect Leader of the Cloud Sword Sect and the four Elders felt their hearts nearly leap out.

They had somewhat guessed some things.

The Sect Leader of the Cloud Sword Sect was panicked, thinking, "Could it be the Feng Family?"

Indeed.

Commander Shangguan brought the five from the Cloud Sword Sect to the Feng Family.

The Sect Leader of the Cloud Sword Sect and the four Elders were now utterly terrified, their faces pale as if they had fallen into Hell.

At this moment.

The Feng Family was warmly hosting Gu Chenfeng and the Ice Phoenix, both expressing gratitude for Gu Chenfeng's rescue of the Feng Family and celebrating the family's victory over their enemies.

A member of the Feng Family entered the hall and respectfully reported, "Ancestor, Patriarch, the two Immortal Emperor seniors have returned, and they've brought back the Sect Leader of the Cloud Sword Sect and the four Elders."

"That fast?" Feng Li and the Elders were startled.

Feng Li immediately stood up and said, "Quickly, invite Commander Shangguan and the others in."

Shortly thereafter.

Commander Shangguan brought the Sect Leader of the Cloud Sword Sect and the four Elders into the hall.

Commander Shangguan respectfully clasped his fists at Gu Chenfeng and said, "Ancestor, the Sect Leader of the Cloud Sword Sect and the four Elders are here."

The Sect Leader of the Cloud Sword Sect and the four Elders turned their gaze toward Gu Chenfeng.

The moment they saw him, they were taken aback.

The so-called Ancestor mentioned by Commander Shangguan turned out to be a teenager of sixteen or seventeen.

It made them feel as though Commander Shangguan was joking with them.

Seeing the Sect Leader and the four Elders unmoved, Commander Shangguan cast a murderous glare.

The Sect Leader and the four Elders were startled, suppressing their internal fear, and respectfully saluted, "Greetings, Ancestor!"

Gu Chenfeng slowly rose, his expression calm, yet exuding an aura of terrifying intensity.

The Sect Leader and the four Elders felt a jolt of terror in their hearts, unsettled by Gu Chenfeng's aura.

Gu Chenfeng raised his eyes to look at the five from the Cloud Sword Sect, his gaze cold and expressionless, "Do you know why I summoned you here?"

The Sect Leader, lowering his head, dared not meet Gu Chenfeng's eyes, respectfully replied, "Junior does not know; I humbly ask for Ancestor's guidance."

Gu Chenfeng, expressionless, asked, "Your Cloud Sword Sect acted against the Feng Family; are you aware Feng Yueji is my disciple?"

"Your disciple?" The Sect Leader and the four Elders were terrified, their eyes nearly popping out.

"Spare us, Ancestor! We were unaware Feng Yueji was your disciple!" The Sect Leader begged for mercy, cold sweat dripping down his forehead.

The four Elders also knelt, trembling uncontrollably, their hearts filled with extreme fear.

"Who directed you to act against the Feng Family?" Gu Chenfeng asked coldly, his terrifying aura pressing down on the Sect Leader and the four Elders.

Facing the oppressive aura of Gu Chenfeng, the Sect Leader felt as if mountains were weighing down on him, nearly suffocating him.

The Sect Leader, struggling against fear, hesitated momentarily, finally deciding not to conceal the truth.

The Sect Leader responded in terror, "Ancestor, it was the Nine Yang Immortal Palace; they threatened us, saying if we didn't suppress the Feng Family, they'd destroy our Cloud Sword Sect."

"Nine Yang Immortal Palace?" Gu Chenfeng frowned.

Commander Shangguan respectfully stated, "Ancestor, the Nine Yang Immortal Palace is not weak, with two Immortal Venerables and eight Immortal Emperors."

The Sect Leader further respectfully informed, "Ancestor, the Nine Yang Immortal Palace's aim is the Feng Family's Ancient Jade Pendant; the juniors speak truthfully, not daring any falsehood."

Feng Li hesitated for a moment and then said, "Ancestor, to be frank, this Ancient Jade Pendant was accidentally acquired by our Feng Family's ancestor; it's said to contain powerful energy and Immortal Technique inheritance."

"But we do not know the specifics; for years we've guarded it, but never managed to unseal its strong barrier."

"Yueji mentioned it to me," Gu Chenfeng nodded.

Looking at the Sect Leader of the Cloud Sword Sect and the others, Gu Chenfeng stated expressionlessly, "Your Cloud Sword Sect bullied the weak and wronged my disciple; this cannot be easily forgiven."

The Sect Leader and the four Elders turned pale, desperately pleading, "Spare us, Ancestor! We are willing to redeem our actions!"
