Chapter 65 : Immortal Phoenix

The peace within the entire godly temple was restored, but this peace and quiet carried a false sensation.

The Buddhist candle on the highest floor of the Buddhist pagoda remained bright and forever eternal.

Outside of the godly temple, the atmosphere became tense. In a flash, another Ju Qing appeared.

This Ju Qing sat in an ancient bronze carriage, driven by a godly deer that held an aura no less powerful than the other two Ju Qings in front, which denied others the sense of ease.

An invisible pressure also followed the carriage and became increasingly stronger, causing the energy in the air to create traction and it turned into a huge source of power.

Even though it was just an ordinary bronze carriage, its presence felt like a heavenly army on an expedition!

The driver was a handsome young teen, adorned with a gold robe and a long sword on his back, around the age of seventeen. With this age, he was no longer considered an infant, yet on his neck was a silver locket meant for infants.[1]

Qin Ming stretched his back and looked at the godly temple in the far distance, then gazed at the crowd near his vicinity. His legs were uncomfortable from the long distance travelling.

He jumped off the bronze carriage and took off the sword on his back. The long sword in his hand was indeed extremely swift and in a flash, there were many sword auras appearing on the ground.

“Bang, bang, bang…”

Dust on the ground was scattered about and when the dust storm settled, domineering characters appeared at the scene.

“The Qin family ancestor has arrived!”

The power of the Qin family in the Grand Southern Prefecture was great. It was one of the leading families with power identical to the Feng family — definitely an overlord of one direction.

“Within the bronze carriage is an ancestor of the Qin family, this is really not good!”

Feng Zhi Zi’s face became serious and carefully gazed at the ancient bronze carriage outside of the godly temple.

Feng Fei Yun didn’t understand and asked:

“Why is it not good?”

“The Qin family and the Feng family are the two top families of the Grand Southern Prefecture with similar power, so only the Prefecture Governor is able to suppress our two houses. Of course, the Prefecture Governor was a character of the Tian Hou level in the Jin Dynasty so our two houses definitely cannot catch up. However, he also doesn’t care about the conflicts between major powers.”[2]

“The Qin family and the Feng family have many grievances throughout the years; many talented Feng disciples died in the hands of the Qin family. Of course, Qin disciples also died in the hands of our own experts. The hatred between our two houses became deeper and deeper; if it wasn’t for the Prefecture Governor taking charge, our two families would have fought to the bitter end already.”

“The clan masters of both the families, throughout the generations, have always been ones with great foresight and knew that our powers were not quite different. If we truly fought to the bitter end, then both houses would suffer greatly, so both sides were waiting for just the right opportunity.”

Feng Zhi Zi truthfully brought out all of the grievances between the two families into the open and his eyes became more anxious with contemplation.

“What opportunity?”

Feng Fei Yun asked.

Feng Zhi Zi continued:

“When the balance between the two families is lost, one side will attack the other while not giving them a chance to turn around. At this moment, there must be a heaven shattering secret in this godly temple. If the ancestor of the Qin family was to seize this treasure, his battle power would definitely soar. At that point, our Feng ancestor wouldn’t be a match for him.”

“When the Feng ancestor is defeated or dead, the destruction of the Feng family would be easy for the Qin family.”

Sometimes, the war between families were simply decided by a battle of the masters. Whoever won would become king; the loser would become lost souls!

The Qin ancestor was a reclusive person. If there wasn’t an appearance of a great treasure, then why would he rush here so quickly? It was clear that there was something unfathomable inside this godly temple, attracting the Ju Qings from all directions to quickly rush here.

Feng Fei Yun’s eyes slightly shrunk and he channeled the Phoenix Heavenly Gaze towards the ancient bronze carriage, but he couldn’t see through to the inside. Who on earth was inside the carriage? He could only see strands of shadows flying around the ancient carriage, as if the Qin ancestor was practicing a certain cultivation method.

“A junior from some little hole dares to peek at our house’s ancestor!? Your one glance, I will pay you back with one as well.”

Qin Ming felt the gaze of Feng Fei Yun and his eyes also focused, then turned into a tiny needle.
