Chapter 5906: Formidable Father

A gaze from the sky fell upon Chu Feng and Zi Ling.

It was the same gaze Chu Feng felt when he was in the last formation, but this time around, he could vividly feel how powerful the other party was. He felt like a trapped ant being watched by a human.

Just then, the Divine Deer spoke up, “Chu Feng, that person is extremely strong. I don’t think I’ll be able to take you out of here. Take note of that when you deal with this situation.”

Chu Feng’s heart sank.

He knew what the Divine Deer was capable of. In a way, this showed how powerful the person he was dealing with was.

“Elder, are you from the Three Saints Monstrous Clan?” Chu Feng raised his head and asked.

“That’s right,” the other party replied.

That put Chu Feng’s heart at ease a little. Perhaps there might still be room for negotiation then. It would have been much more complicated if the other party was an outsider.

“May I know what you’d like to discuss with me?” Chu Feng asked.

The other party chuckled a little before remarking, “Young friend, you have a remarkable father.”

That laugh stoked Chu Feng’s unease. It didn’t sound like a compliment but a tease, making it hard for him to tell whether the other party was a friend or a foe. It would be terrible if the other party was a foe.

Knowing there was no use to panic, Chu Feng asked, “Elder, what do you mean by that?” VIsit n0(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience

“Young friend, you are a smart person. You should be able to tell from how I teleported you here that I’m the person truly in charge of the sacred mountain’s formation. I fell into hibernation here, and it’s only in recent days that I woke up. However, I found that our sacred treasure has gone missing, and this has something to do with your father,” that person said.

“Elder, how do you know it’s related to my father?”

“Don’t feign ignorance. You have a part to play in it too.”

Chu Feng’s unease intensified upon hearing those words. It was clear the other party knew what had happened.

Nevertheless, Chu Feng was still a little confused as he wasn’t sure what was the full story surrounding his father here. All he knew was that his father had likely taken out one of the black jars inside the Sacred Temple and placed it in front of him, and he released whatever was inside the black jar.

“You’re right under normal circumstances, but he pulled it off. That’s why I said you have a remarkable father,” the other party said with a laugh.

It was only now that Chu Feng understood the significance of those words. It turned out his father had found a way to circumvent some of the laws imposed on the sacred mountain.

“Elder, may I know the reason you brought me back here?” Chu Feng asked.

“I want you to retrieve our sacred treasure, and I’ll drop this matter. Until you return with our sacred treasure, you’ll be leaving your little girlfriend with me in the sacred mountain,” the other party said.

“Elder, I’ll look for the item in the black jar, but can we choose another method as leverage?” Chu Feng anxiously asked.

“Another method? Do you have a better idea than leaving your close kin behind?” the other party asked.

“I do. You can make me consume poison instead,” Chu Feng replied.

“Big brother Chu Feng, you mustn’t!” Zi Ling panicked. She would rather be detained here than to have Chu Feng consume poison.

“Hahaha!” The other party burst into laughter. “Consume poison? That’s a good idea. Very well, I shall satisfy your demand then!”

The sky turned dark. Dark clouds converged at a single spot and manifested into a black pill. The black pill floated toward Chu Feng, leaving spatial cracks in its wake.

Chu Feng would die without any shred of doubt if he couldn’t obtain the antidote.

“Elder, I’ll stay behind. Please don’t let Chu Feng consume the poison!” Zi Ling pleaded.

However, the other party ignored Zi Ling.

“Elder, please keep your promise. You have to let me and Zi Ling leave if I consume this poison pill,” Chu Feng said as he held the poison pill.

“Yes, I’ll let the two of you leave as long as you consume this pill,” the other party replied.

Chu Feng popped the poison pill into his mouth, only to stiffen a second later.

He realized that the pill, despite looking unfathomably dangerous, contained no poison at all. Rather, it was an amazing cultivation resource. Not only did it not cause any harm to Chu Feng, but it even infused natural energies harnessing martial enlightenment into his body.

“Hahahaha!” The other party burst into laughter.
