Extreme Almightiest Young Master

Chapter 1691 - 1673: Sitting on Pins and Needles

In the blink of an eye, a few hours passed. Manager Huang personally brought in the meals, but seeing the three of them deeply engrossed, he didn’t disturb them and waited outside. After another half an hour, Leng Hao returned with a piece of an unknown material in his hand, and immediately went over when he saw Manager Huang standing at the door.

"Manager Huang, why haven’t you gone in? Is Senior Fang discussing Dharma Treasures with Meng Zhu again?" Leng Hao asked curiously as he looked at Manager Huang.

"Young Master Leng, you’re back. Mr. Lin is inside teaching Senior Fang and Meng Zhu about Artifact Refining, so I didn’t feel right going in," Manager Huang said awkwardly while looking at Leng Hao. He indeed felt out of place here, as he was not qualified to listen to what Lin Feng was teaching Fang Gu and Meng Zhu. But it was time to eat, and he didn’t trust anyone else, so he just stood here alone.

"Brother-in-law is here? Great! Give it to me, you can go!" Leng Hao exclaimed excitedly as soon as he heard Manager Huang, then immediately took the meal over from Manager Huang, motioning for him to leave. After Manager Huang left, he immediately pushed the door open and went in.

"Brother-in-law, you’re here! I’ve missed you so much!" Leng Hao moved swiftly to Lin Feng’s side as he spoke, placing the meal next to Meng Zhu and Fang Gu, his excitement evident on his face. His cheerful spirit was unmistakable.

"Not bad, but you’re not yet at the Human Immortal Realm. Your sister is about to catch up to you. You haven’t been focusing on your cultivation this past year," Lin Feng said with a smile, actually teasing Leng Hao. Though Leng Hao has progressed quickly, he hadn’t yet reached the expected goal. Lin Feng knew the reason behind it, and if he guessed correctly, the relationship between Leng Hao and Meng Zhu had progressed quite well.

"Brother-in-law, I... I was wrong... I’ll definitely work harder. But brother-in-law, how did my sister improve so quickly? Did you help her improve her power? If you can, can you also help Meng Zhu increase her power? She lacks strength now, and her True Fire isn’t enough during Artifact Refining."

Hearing Lin Feng’s words, Leng Hao blushed instantly. Indeed, over the past year, he hadn’t been fully devoted to cultivation, splitting his time helping Meng Zhu look for various materials. Thus, he had no words to refute Lin Feng’s comment. However, he suddenly remembered Lin Feng’s words about his sister never becoming a Divine Change Realm powerhouse, indicating that his brother-in-law had helped her. If that’s the case, then his brother-in-law could also help Meng Zhu improve her power. He really wished for Meng Zhu’s strength to increase!

But he seemed to have forgotten to discuss this with Meng Zhu, making Lin Feng burst into laughter, giving Leng Hao an unnerving look, then looked at Meng Zhu, causing her to blush and lower her head, not daring to look at Lin Feng.

"You two really got together, not bad, not bad, it wasn’t in vain that I gave you both a chance. As for improving power, that’s easy. Meng Zhu will be like a sister-in-law to me, so family helps family without being asked," Lin Feng said happily, seeing that over the past year, Leng Hao had captured Meng Zhu’s heart, and their relationship seemed strong. Otherwise, Leng Hao wouldn’t be thinking about Meng Zhu first.

Meng Zhu’s face turned even redder upon hearing Lin Feng’s words, her head lowered even more, too shy to say a word, feeling like an ostrich wanting to bury her head in the sand. Over the past year, she had indeed accepted Leng Hao and felt he was a good person. Still, Lin Feng’s comments made her unable to suppress her shyness.

"Brother-in-law..." Leng Hao chuckled sheepishly at this time, not knowing what to say, scratching his head with a pure smile on his face. He was thankful to Lin Feng from the bottom of his heart because without Lin Feng’s prior arrangement, he and Meng Zhu wouldn’t have been together.

At this moment, Fang Gu interjected with a smile, "Junior brother, these two young ones are truly great. Whenever Meng Zhu needs something, Leng Hao gets it done without hesitation, taking care meticulously. If they get married, I’ll give them a grand gift."

Fang Gu was genuinely happy at this moment. Over the past year, it was clear what kind of people they were. It’s safe to say that he liked both Leng Hao and Meng Zhu very much, even treating them like his children. Their relationship was exceptionally harmonious, and he had already prepared a grand gift, though he hadn’t told anyone.

This comment made Leng Hao and Meng Zhu even more embarrassed, and they didn’t even dare to look each other in the eye, causing Lin Feng and Fang Gu to burst into laughter. The scene was filled with warmth, and Meng Zhu almost fled the scene, but Leng Hao, reacting quickly, immediately called everyone to eat. Only after they finished eating did they continue discussing Artifact Refining.

Lin Feng and Fang Gu didn’t want Meng Zhu to be too embarrassed, so they stopped teasing Leng Hao and Meng Zhu. After a simple meal, Lin Feng returned to a serious demeanor, imparting knowledge about Dharma Treasure refining to Meng Zhu and Fang Gu, while Leng Hao took the opportunity to go out and cultivate...

...

Inside the Wufeng Sect.

He Jun and several elders were discussing matters concerning the Holy Wind Sect. Now that the Holy Wind Sect had been established and such a proclamation had been made, everyone inside the Wufeng Sect was on edge.

"Elders, do any of you have suggestions on how our Wufeng Sect should handle this matter?" Sect Master He Jun was at his wit’s end at this moment. Now that Third Hu had been killed by Lin Feng, by rights he could breathe a sigh of relief, but Lin Feng wanted to annex the Wufeng Sect. This left He Jun uncertain about what to do. The Wufeng Sect may not be a large sect, but it had been around for hundreds or thousands of years. If it disappeared under his leadership, he couldn’t bear that responsibility.

"What else can we do in this situation? We must agree. Even Third Hu was no match for Lin Feng, so how can we possibly contend against the Holy Wind Sect? If we disagree, Lin Feng might really kill everyone in the Wufeng Sect," an elder sighed heavily at this time, believing there was no other path to take but to join the Holy Wind Sect to preserve their lives. Otherwise, if they’re dead, what use is their sect’s name?

"In principle, I agree too, but I want to know if the things Lin Feng said at the founding ceremony are genuine. Does anyone have information on this?" Another elder nodded, although the result was hard to accept, they had no room for disagreement in the face of power. Not joining the Holy Wind Sect meant leaving the Immortal-Slaying Secret Realm or dying in battle. Anyone with common sense knew what the right choice was.

"I know about these matters. Although our Wufeng Sect didn’t send anyone to the Holy Wind Sect’s founding ceremony, one of my old acquaintances did. He’s a Loose Cultivator and has now joined the Holy Wind Sect. According to him, you can indeed check out which Elixirs in their warehouse can be purchased with Contribution Points. However, he has just joined and doesn’t have any points yet. There’s also a lot of Dharma Treasure in the warehouse, though it’s unclear where the Holy Wind Sect got these treasures from. As for lectures, it’s not yet time for that, but given the Holy Wind Sect’s current power, holding lectures is hardly an issue."

An elder in a black robe supplemented the conversation, surprised by the depth of the Holy Wind Sect. Dharma Treasures aren’t ordinary items; they’re incredibly scarce. Even when Artifact Refiners create them, the demand far exceeds the supply, making a good Dharma Treasure greatly enhance a cultivator’s power. A suitable Dharma Treasure can significantly boost one’s strength, incomparable to anyone else’s method.

"I feel the same way. If Lin Feng does everything he claims, then it doesn’t matter if we join the Holy Wind Sect. It would benefit each of us; that’s a Divine Change Realm powerhouse and a Human Immortal Realm powerhouse lecturing! Who could resist such an opportunity?"

"What I want to know is whether Lin Feng will kill us. If we side with Lin Feng, will they spare us? As long as they don’t kill us, they can do whatever they want."

"It’s laughable. We thought Lin Feng had an accident, but he was fine all along. As soon as he came out, he killed Third Hu, clearly using our Wufeng Sect to establish authority."

"I personally think it’s best to observe for a couple of days and see the situation before making any decisions. We need to see if the reports from other sources align with what Lin Feng said. If they do, then joining the Holy Wind Sect is our best option, beneficial for each of us. It’s our only path to survival unless we choose to leave the Immortal-Slaying Secret Realm. But outside here, in the Secular World, there’s no Spiritual Energy at all. If we leave, we might have no future or hopes left."

In a situation similar to that of the Wufeng Sect, other weaker Sects or families were also in a dilemma. However, some other Sects had completely different views than the Wufeng Sect. Like Third Hu, there were those awakening from the Sealing Time who didn’t care about the Holy Wind Sect or believed that Lin Feng couldn’t possibly kill them all. They thought that simply couldn’t happen; after all, it seemed impossible for Lin Feng to wipe out everyone.

At the Qinghua Sect, the Sect Leader and a few elders were kneeling before Sima Yunhai.
