"Hehe, for any overlord, that's a humiliation. The two most beautiful women of the World of Battles… and in the end, one became an overlord, the other married a foreigner, what do you think?" asked the Ancestor of the Five Cardinal Points, smiling wryly and shaking his head. He remembered back in the days, Ancestor Nü and Ni Huang's beauty had also drawn his attention.
"What's his name? Where is he from?" asked Lin Feng. He wanted to avenge his ancestor.
"You know the Ancestral World?" asked the Ancestor of the Five Cardinal Points evenly.
"Yes. It's an Extraterritorial World. I know about it, of course," Lin Feng said nodding. The Four Great Battle Ancestors had told him and the other young geniuses about that world.
"Ancestor Nü's husband is the leader of the Ancestral World. He's also the only Heavenly Godly Ancestor in the Ancestral World," said the Ancestor of the Five Cardinal Points.
"Heavenly Godly Ancestor?" Lin Feng was dumbstruck. At the same time, he also thought his forefather had to be a Heavenly Godly Ancestor, too. Lin Feng was overjoyed inside. A god from Earth was a Heavenly Godly Ancestor, it was not surprising. He was also the strongest cultivator of the universe!
"What's his name?" asked Lin Feng.
"Dao Yi."
"Dao Yi?" Lin Feng was astonished. Or was he just too confident? (Translator's Note: Dao Yi kind of means the first and best on the Dao, and was also a famous monk in Chinese history)
"Yes, Dao Yi. It means he's the strongest cultivator of the world. Nobody is stronger than him," nodded the Ancestor of the Five Cardinal Points. He didn't want to explain too much, feeling a strange pressure.
"Master, don't be sad. This world is fair. No matter how strong some people are, they can't defy Tian Dao," Lin Feng said, trying to cheer the Ancestor of the Five Cardinal Points up.
But the old man only looked at Lin Feng strangely and smiled wryly, "Little boy, are you pretending, or are you really stupid? Those two already defeated Tian Dao, hehehehe!"
"Both Fu Xi and Dao Yi did?" Lin Feng was dumbstruck. He didn't know how to cheer up the old man now. Even Tian Dao had lost!
"Yes, Fu Xi said only one thing and defeated Tian Dao."
"What did he say?" asked Lin Feng. His heart started pounding.
The Ancestor of the Five Cardinal Points looked thoughtful as he said, "He said that if Tian Dao didn't submit to him, he would cripple Tian Dao! Tian Dao submitted."
"Aggressive and awesome." Lin Feng clenched his fists. He wished he could be as strong as those people!
"What about Dao Yi?" asked Lin Feng. The old man glanced at Lin Feng, "Just one word."
"What word?"
"'Same!'"
"Same?" Lin Feng was astonished. He had just said Same! and Tian Dao had submitted…
"Actually, they're not the only ones who made Tian Dao submit. The other one is insane; he's a giant with a gigantic axe who wanders around. He threatened Tian Dao with his axe and Tian Dao submitted."
"What? Another one?"
"Yes, He used to be the only Heavenly Godly Ancestor at some point in the World of Battles. He must be hiding in Hong Meng now, or that's what many people think, at least," the Ancestor of the Five Cardinal Points frowned.
As expected. A giant with a gigantic axe? Did the Ancestor of the Five Cardinal Points mean Pangu? (Translator's Note: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pangu) Impossible…
Lin Feng just had the feeling he had gone through too many things now, but he quickly calmed down. He was from Earth, and he had been sent to the Continent of the Nine Clouds, everything was possible!
He needed to become stronger. He was convinced that someday he'd become a Heavenly Godly Ancestor. He'd be like Dao Yi and the others.
There would be legends and tales about Lin Feng's adventures someday. Lin Feng had an incredible urge, he wanted to be the strongest god ever!
The Ancestor of the Five Cardinal Points noticed Lin Feng's expression change a few times. He now looked excited, positive, and determined. He couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong, Lin Feng?"
"I want to defeat Fu Xi and Dao Yi!" Lin Feng said directly, without even thinking.
The Ancestor of the Five Cardinal Points was astonished. He put his hand on Lin Feng's head and whispered, "Eh, young man, you don't have a fever, do you?"
The Ancestor of the Five Cardinal Points thought it was a ridiculous idea. There were so many overlords in the world and none of them were able to defeat those two people. Most of them weren't even Heavenly Godly Ancestors. It wasn't easy! Breaking through to the Heavenly Godly Ancestor layer and defeating those two people was just insane!
Therefore, in the World of Battles, apart from Hong Meng, nobody had ever dared offend those two. Ni Huang and Ancestor Nü were already terrifying enough!

On the day after, early in the morning…
Zhuang Ling Yun had dark rings under his eyes. He entered Lin Feng's room. Lin Feng hadn't slept either, because he had thought of Fu Xi and Dao Yi all night.
"Father, give me some tea," said Zhuang Ling Yun, falling on Lin Feng's bed limply. His face was extremely pale. He looked miserable. When Lin Feng saw him like that, he hastily poured some hot tea for him and gave him a cup.
"What's wrong? Do you feel depressed?"
"You made me predict mother's future, so I didn't sleep," Zhuang Ling Yun yawned. He took a sip of tea.
"And?" asked Lin Feng. He was worried.
"Not good, father. You have to go to the Phoenix Clan."
"Explain."
"She's not in imminent danger but she's been imprisoned. If you don't go, they'll never release her," said Zhuang Ling Yun, drinking more tea. He had checked her future a few times and found the same results three times in a row, so there was no mistake.
Lin Feng suddenly felt depressed. What did they intend to do to Qing Huang Tian? They couldn't possibly kill her!
"Go and have a rest. When you wake up, tell Uncle Song that I'm going to the Phoenix Clan and that I'm not sure when I'll come back." Lin Feng disappeared, leaving a gust of wind in his room behind him.
Zhuang Ling Yun nodded. He finished his tea and went straight to see Song Chou Jiu. He couldn't sleep without telling Song Chou Jiu such an important thing.
If something happened to his father, the boy would never forgive himself!

Lin Feng left alone. He crossed Liang City, then the Celestial Pavilion of Enchantments, and then saw Ni Huang's territory. From Ni Huang's territory, he could go to the Phoenix Clan.
It took Lin Feng the entire morning to arrive. Back then, Qian Jin Cai Yue had helped the Ancestor of the Five Cardinal Points and him enter Ni Huang's world. Now, Lin Feng could find it easily. He didn't need Qian Jin Cai Yue's help anymore, he had dragon-phoenix blood strength in his veins now. He didn't need anyone to open the gate for him!
"Open!" shouted Lin Feng loudly. Suddenly, golden phoenix lights appeared and condensed. The phoenix blood was thick and dense. Lin Feng touched the dazzling golden lights with his finger, and a hole appeared, growing bigger and bigger. Lin Feng flashed inside and disappeared.
The lights needed a few hours to disappear so many strong cultivators from Liang City thought Ni Huang had come personally. Many people gathered there, including Song Chou Jiu, Miss Eight and the others.
"Lin Feng condensed dragon-phoenix blood to open Ni Huang's world, but how do we go in?" asked Song Chou Jiu worriedly. What if Zhen Yu killed him?
"Only the Ancestor of the Five Cardinal Points can save Lin Feng," said Miss Eight gravely. Holy Godly Ancestors couldn't help him now.
"The Ancestor of the Five Cardinal Points knows already, but he didn't react. I don't know why," said Song Chou Jiu shaking his head. When Zhuang Ling Yun told him that, Song Chou Jiu had contacted the Ancestor of the Five Cardinal Points directly. When the old man heard Lin Feng was off to the Phoenix Clan, he just said that he knew. What did he mean?
"Impossible," said Miss Eight. She didn't believe the Ancestor of the Five Cardinal Points could abandon Lin Feng. Was he convinced Lin Feng could solve the issue alone?
"Contact him again," said Water. He flashed back to Man Yu. Miss Eight had no choice but to follow him.
——-
At the same time, in Man Yu, the Ancestor of the Five Cardinal Points was speaking with a beautiful silhouette. Everybody knew who she was.
"If you don't go and save Lin Feng, I won't intervene either. If Lin Feng goes through that safely and Zhen Yu fails to injure Lin Feng, what should we do?" asked Ni Huang.
"I don't know, silly girl, what are you trying to do?" asked the Ancestor of the Five Cardinal Points, frowning. He didn't understand Ni Huang's behavior and strategy.
"Master, forgive me, I can't tell you. All I can tell you is that I don't really want to kill Lin Feng, but I won't let him off."
"Why?"
"Because of him!"
"Him? You also know Lin Feng's real identity?"
"Don't ask. All I can tell you is that he's like Lin Feng. He played with my feelings, so I have to make Lin Feng pay, because they have the same blood!!"
"But you can't punish Lin Feng, the boy is innocent! Go and talk to him, not Lin Feng."
"Master, don't worry, I won't do anything over the top," Ni Huang interrupted him. She disappeared without leaving trace. The Ancestor of the Five Cardinal Points could only frown sadly.
