Extreme Almightiest Young Master

Chapter 1157 - 1155: The Competition Moved Up?

"Do you know each other?" Old Monster was stunned as he watched, not expecting this outcome at all; he could hardly believe what was happening before his eyes.

"Of course, we know each other. Let me introduce, this is Elder Yunfeng from the Xia Family, and this is my friend. You can just call him Old Monster, as he can’t even recall his own name anymore." Lin Feng smiled at Old Monster as he quickly introduced the two, hoping to clarify that their confrontation was a pure misunderstanding.

"Elder Yunfeng, I am really sorry, I didn’t know you were here to find Lin Feng. I have offended you greatly..." Once Old Monster heard Lin Feng’s explanation, he realized who this old man before him was and immediately apologized politely. He had suspected that the elder, a master of the Infinitesimal Realm with a Dharma Treasure, couldn’t have been an ordinary individual, and indeed he turned out to be an elder from the Xia Family!

"No need to say that. I am also at fault for not stating my intentions clearly before attempting to force my way through. If I had explained myself earlier, this confrontation wouldn’t have happened..." Elder Yunfeng’s face turned red with embarrassment as he admitted to Old Monster that his recklessness to see Lin Feng had led to the earlier incident.

"No offense taken where ignorance lies. Elder Yunfeng, what brings you to me?" seeing the two elders apologizing to each other, Lin Feng smiled, but then he remembered that Elder Yunfeng must have had a reason for coming, so he asked in order to understand the situation better.

"That’s how it is. The Family Head asked me to pass a message to you and Lanlan; oh, where is Lanlan? The Family Head said it should be said in front of both of you." Elder Yunfeng had almost forgotten the important matter he came for when reminded by Lin Feng’s question. Instantly slapping his forehead, he began to respond to Lin Feng but then noticed Xia Lalan was not there and asked Lin Feng about her whereabouts.

Hearing Elder Yunfeng’s words, Lin Feng knew the matter must be of great importance. With a solemn expression, he immediately told Elder Yunfeng, "Lanlan is inside, teaching the children. Let’s go in and talk."

After saying so, he quickly pulled Elder Yunfeng inside. Without giving it much thought, Elder Yunfeng followed Lin Feng into the grove, but as soon as he entered, he was stunned by the sight before him!

How is this possible!

Elder Yunfeng couldn’t believe his eyes as he rubbed them. The sight before him resembled the Hidden World, and the concentration of Spiritual Energy was similar too. This couldn’t be possible, not in the Spiritual Energy-deficient Secular World. This was truly inconceivable!

"Elder Yunfeng, now you see why I wanted the children to come here," Lin Feng spoke calmly, seeing Elder Yunfeng so surprised, explaining that if it weren’t for the sufficient Spiritual Energy, he wouldn’t have brought the children here.

"So this is the reason..." Hearing Lin Feng’s words, Elder Yunfeng was filled with emotion as he realized Lin Feng had found such a place. It was no wonder Lin Feng insisted on having Xia Lalan bring the children out; with a place like this, there were no concerns for the children being outside.

Seeing Elder Yunfeng’s reaction, Lin Feng didn’t say much but smiled and continued inward. Soon they arrived outside the villa, where Lin Feng smiled at Elder Yunfeng and said, "Elder Yunfeng, let’s talk inside. Lanlan will be here shortly."

It wasn’t proper to discuss matters outside; better to go inside first. He had already informed Xia Lalan with his Divine Sense, so she wouldn’t take long to come. He was indeed curious to know what had happened in the Hidden World that warranted a visit from an elder specifically to inform him and Xia Lalan. The matter must be very urgent.

Elder Yunfeng nodded at Lin Feng’s words and followed him into the villa. But before they could sit down, Xia Lalan suddenly burst through the door, rushing to Elder Yunfeng’s side and respectfully greeted him before asking with slight anxiety, "Elder Yunfeng, what brings you here?"

Xia Lalan was extremely surprised to see Elder Yunfeng and worried that someone from the Xia Family had really come to find them. She was fearful that she and Lin Feng were about to be taken back to the Xia Family...

"Of course, there is a matter. Now that both of you are here, I can convey the Family Head’s command. There has been a change with the upcoming competition; it has been moved forward to next month, which is imminent. The Family Head orders you both to bring the children back as soon as possible, otherwise, you might not make it in time."

Elder Yunfeng didn’t waste any time upon Xia Lalan’s arrival and immediately passed the Family Head’s commands to the two. The competition had run into unexpected issues, and it was crucial for Lin Feng and the children to return to the clan without delay to prepare for the event. The matter at hand was of great significance and not to be taken lightly.

Lin Feng looked at Xia Yunfeng and finally understood why Xia Yunfeng was in such a hurry to come over—it turned out to be for this reason. However, the sudden advancement of the competition surely meant something unusual. He immediately asked Xia Yunfeng, "Elder Yunfeng, what exactly is going on?"

"Yes, Elder Yunfeng, what exactly is the matter? Why would the competition be advanced? Such things have never happened before." Xia Lalan also looked at Xia Yunfeng with great curiosity, asking why the competition would be brought forward so suddenly when such an event had never occurred in the past—the situation was definitely too abnormal.

"The competition venue, Myriad Immortals Platform, has experienced disturbances. This time, there was a particularly intense surge of Immortal Qi there. The ancestors from the four Prominent Families have all rushed over to investigate, saying that the Barrier is likely to open ahead of schedule in a month. To not miss the opening moment, the four Prominent Families decided to advance the competition to one month from now."

"Most importantly, the ancestors from the four Prominent Families speculate that the abnormal change in Immortal Qi could be very unusual—it’s very possible that Immortals will descend. It is precisely because of this situation that the Family Head ordered me to come here quickly to inform you, so you can return as soon as possible. With the distance being far and travel from the Xia Family taking half a month, this means you must leave for the Xia Family within the next few days, otherwise, there won’t be enough time."

Seeing the puzzled expressions of Lin Feng and Xia Lalan, Xia Yunfeng explained the situation in detail, wanting to let the two of them understand exactly what had happened. To tell the truth, even as an Elder of the Xia Family, he had never encountered such an event, so the reactions of Lin Feng and Xia Lalan were perfectly normal.

Immortal Qi? The arrival of Immortals?

Old Monster, who had been silent on the side, was taken aback by Xia Yunfeng’s words, not expecting such a turn of events to occur, let alone ever imagining that there would be real Immortals in this world. He wondered if this was true or false—how could Immortals return here?

Old Monster was truly astounded. While in the Hidden World, he had discussed such matters with Fang Gu; Fang Gu had mentioned that due to the high level of power of Human Immortal Realm experts, all of them had ascended to another world. However, no one had ascended from the Hidden World for hundreds of years, so the sudden claim of an Immortal’s descent was hard for him to believe.

After listening to Xia Yunfeng’s explanation, Lin Feng and Xia Lalan finally understood what was happening—the possibility of an Immortal’s arrival was quite unexpected to both.

"Lin Feng, what should we do next? There’s only one month left. When will we return to the Xia Family?" Xia Lalan was the first to speak, looking at Lin Feng, wanting to know his plan. They originally had several months left, but now, with this sudden turn of events catching them off guard and with the competition approaching, they would have to hurry back.

Similarly, Xia Yunfeng also looked at Lin Feng, wanting to know how he would handle the situation. Yet, he said nothing. Given the attitude of the Family Head and the Elders towards Lin Feng, he could hardly directly demand anything from Lin Feng, but he still hoped Lin Feng would consider the bigger picture and hurry back with the children as soon as possible, preferably right now.

Lin Feng glanced at their anxious faces and, after a brief thought, spoke, "Let’s continue cultivation for half a month. The children still have some training tasks to complete. After half a month, we don’t need to return to the Xia Family—we can head straight for the journey."

As soon as Lin Feng finished speaking, an exclamation came from Xia Yunfeng!

"What? This cannot be! I disagree, Lin Feng, you don’t understand how dangerous that area is. How can you possibly travel there by yourselves? The Demon Beasts at Myriad Immortals Platform are all above the Infinitesimal Realm, and there are even some in the Divine Change Realm, which ordinary people cannot resist. You can’t do this!"

"And furthermore, before coming here, the Family Head specifically instructed me to inform you no matter what to hurry back to the Xia Family as soon as possible, so you could head to Myriad Immortals Platform with the Xia Family’s large team for the competition. This completely disrupts the Xia Family’s plan, this..."

Upon hearing Lin Feng speak in such a manner, Xia Yunfeng quickly became frantic, earnestly persuading Lin Feng. This matter truly couldn’t be handled as Lin Feng suggested. The journey to the competition site at Myriad Immortals Platform was extremely dangerous, nearly impossible for ordinary people to reach. And even formidable experts would not venture alone; only by gathering the full strength of a Prominent Family or experts at the Divine Change Realm could one make it through. Lin Feng actually wanted to take the children there alone—that was simply not feasible!

"That’s settled then." Lin Feng abruptly cut off Xia Yunfeng before he could finish, certain in his decision and not wanting to hear more from Xia Yunfeng.

Xia Yunfeng’s face changed upon hearing Lin Feng speak so firmly. He knew very well that Lin Feng always meant what he said, thinking to himself that if Lin Feng insisted on going through with this, how would he explain it to the Family Head and the Elders? He must stop Lin Feng at any cost from actually going ahead with this!

Just as Xia Yunfeng was about to try to persuade Lin Feng to abandon the idea, Lin Feng shook his head at him with a faint smile and slightly released some of his imposing aura. Instantly, Xia Yunfeng’s face showed discomfort!
