Chapter 2066: Chapter 2066: An Earnest Invitation!

However, no matter how hard they searched, they couldn’t locate the source of that voice.

For a moment, everyone’s expressions turned extremely grim.

Everyone knew this indicated that the other party’s cultivation realm was definitely higher than theirs.

Their current situation was no different from being lambs to the slaughter.

The only option now was to reveal their trump cards.

In the chaos, perhaps one or two might still escape.

Just as everyone was about to act, suddenly, a figure silently appeared before them.

When they saw this person, the five of them, including Zhou Yu, were taken aback.

The other party was actually from the Human Race!

This person was an elder, appearing to be in his eighties, with white hair and beard, and a face that exuded friendliness.

But when everyone released their Divine Sense to sense this person’s cultivation, they couldn’t detect any specific cultivation.

There were only two possibilities in such a situation.

Either the opponent’s cultivation was far superior to their own.

Or the opponent had an extremely advanced hidden aura magic technique.

Either way, it spoke volumes about this person’s extraordinariness.

Gazing at the elder who suddenly appeared, Li Su and the others warily watched him.

The elder smiled faintly.

"There’s no need to be tense, everyone. I am Hong Feng, and you can call me Master Hong Feng. This place was crafted single-handedly by me."

"Apart from me, there are other humans here, of course, there are also members of the Demon Clan."

"Since you’re here, why not come in for a sit? I also want to learn about the current state of the Human and Demon Clans."

Hearing this, Li Su and the others exchanged a glance quietly.

Every eye still held caution.

Clearly, they were unwilling to follow this elder into the city.

Seeing this, Master Hong Feng smiled faintly.

"I can see that your visit wasn’t specifically for this place. If I’m not mistaken."

"Your goal should be to secretly traverse the Mist Sea Gobi and enter the heartland of the Withered Water Wood Clan."

"Typically, the Human and Demon Clans wouldn’t join forces for such an endeavor."

"Unless..."

"This involves a clan war."

Upon hearing this, Li Su and the others’ expressions slightly changed.

They didn’t expect Master Hong Feng to guess the situation accurately with just a few words.

For a moment, their faces turned even grimmer.

At this point, Master Hong Feng chuckled:

"It’s not that I’m preventing you from leaving, but if you go now, nine times out of ten, you’ll meet your end there."

Hearing this, Xiao Baifeng spoke up.

She took a deep breath and said:

"Master Hong Feng, are you saying you’ll report us to the Withered Water Wood Clan?"

Master Hong Feng shook his head with a smile.

"I am also from the Human Race, why would I do such a thing?"

"However, there’s something you don’t know."

"To cross the Mist Sea Gobi, you must pass through Baijian Canyon. Recently, that place has been fraught with changes, and forcibly entering it is courting death."

"Of course, if you don’t believe me, you’re free to leave!"

Having said that, Master Hong Feng stepped aside, smiling at them.

He looked as if he wouldn’t stop them.

Seeing this, Xiao Baifeng and the others exchanged another glance.

Then, Li Su took a deep breath and said:

"In that case, we’ll take up your hospitality, Master Hong Feng."

Li Su and the others weren’t genuinely willing to stay, but given how far the conversation had gone,

If they insisted on leaving, they might anger the other party, resulting in more loss than gain.

Currently, Master Hong Feng didn’t seem to harbor any malice.

Instead, he had even mentioned the situation at Baijian Canyon.

If it were a lie, so be it, but if true, they would indeed be in trouble.

So, after weighing their options, they decided to enter the city and have a look.

Master Hong Feng smiled faintly.

"Please follow me, everyone!"

With that, Master Hong Feng led them toward the city.

During this process, Zhou Yu remained silent.

He walked slowly, trailing behind the group, his eyes flickering with a strange light.

In fact, when Master Hong Feng appeared, Zhou Yu was also very surprised.

Because the appearance of Master Hong Feng was too sudden, and for a human to be capable of crafting a small city here was beyond logic.

However, Zhou Yu had repeatedly used his Divine Sense, even his Primordial Spirit, to sense this person.

But found nothing suspicious.

Of course, he had one last card, the Eye of Destruction.

But using the Eye of Destruction in front of these people, whose cultivation realms were higher than his, would certainly draw attention.

Before understanding the other party’s intentions, Zhou Yu didn’t want to stand out. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Thus, he remained silent, following behind the others.

Similarly, Ye Ling also chose to follow behind the group.

But whether Ye Ling discovered something or simply followed Zhou Yu, he didn’t know.

Soon, they arrived at a manor beside the small city.

The guards at the manor’s entrance were surprisingly also from the Human Race.

And their cultivation wasn’t low; they had reached the Golden Core Realm.

Seeing the group’s arrival, the guards immediately showed respectful expressions.

The young man with the surname Long looked surprised.

"Master Hong Feng, these people..."

Master Hong Feng smiled slightly.

"These are people of my clan."

"Since our clan left Fengyuan City thousands of years ago, we’ve settled here and have been recuperating in this area for millennia."

Hearing this, the young man with the surname Long uttered an ’oh,’ and then fell silent, though a strange light flickered in his eyes, leaving his thoughts unknown.

"Everyone, please come in!"

"Just in time to try the rare spirit fruits of the Mist Sea Gobi."

Master Hong Feng looked at them with a smiling face.

The young man with the surname Long and the others nodded without suspicion, lifting their feet to enter.

But just then, a dull thud sounded behind them.

Bam!

They saw one of the guards suddenly spewing blood, being blasted backward.

Everyone was startled and turned back, only to find it was Zhou Yu who had acted.

The guard had been killed by a single punch from Zhou Yu, without even a chance to react.

No one expected Zhou Yu would attack and kill right at someone’s doorstep without warning.

Master Hong Feng’s smile also vanished instantly, replaced by an exceptionally cold look.

"I treated you with courtesy, yet you dare to kill!"

"What is the meaning of this?"

After realizing what had happened, Li Su and the others shouted in anger.

"Zhou Yu, what are you doing?"

"You’re too reckless."

However, Zhou Yu’s True Yuan suddenly erupted all over, and in an instant, his figure turned into a phantom, dashing away silently into the distance.

Simultaneously, he shouted coldly.

"Run, it’s a trap."

"They’re all from the Phantom Clan!"
