Fuchen pulled Xia Fei closer and whispered into his ear.
Xia Fei frowned and asked, “Be conspicuous? Are you sure that that will be beneficial to us?”
He had not expected that Fuchen would not want Xia Fei to suppress his personality and meld with the Aurora Clan. Rather, he wanted him to cause a scene and make the entire universe know of his existence.
It must be understood that while Xia Fei was in the light, that woman, whose identity Fuchen refused to divulge, was hiding in the shadows. The more conspicuous Xia Fei was, the more likely it would be for him to become the target of a sneak attack. In normal circumstances, Xia Fei would be the one
hiding in the shadows to stab someone in the back, but right now, the roles had reversed, and Xia Fei was not that comfortable with it.
Fuchen smiled. “If you trust me, then do as I say. I can’t tell you the reason right now, and this matter is one of trust from start to finish. Only by trusting each other can we confront this difficult situation. If there’s no trust, I can’t do anything.”
Xia Fei thought about it for a few minutes before finally saying, “Alright, I’l trust you.”
Fuchen and Xia Fei talked for about half an hour; after which, Xia Fei rose, said goodbye to the other, and made his way straight to Chaos Society’s Garde 83 branch.
This time, Xia Fei would come into their world as the Aurora Clan’s direct descendant. Given how Xia Fei and the Aurora Clan had an intense personality conflict, the path forward probably would not be too smooth. Moreover, that mysterious old woman could pop up at any time to harm him. This was no
small wager he was taking.
However, there were some things that must be done despite them being challenging and fraught with danger. While it was safe to be in the shadows, Xia Fei could not keep hiding forever.
Fuchen, that mysterious man, a successor of the Orthodox Spiritualist path, how reliable were his guarantees? Xia Fei was unable to find out, but this was not important. What was important was that Xia Fei had decided to trust Fuchen. Getting his trust was not easy, but once he gave it, he would trust
them to the end.
As Fuchen watched Xia Fei leave, he stroked his beard and smiled contentedly.
Wraith chose this moment to appear, saying, “Xia Fei is quite the daring person, but if this continues, you’ll really have to fight with that witch to the death.”
Fuchen nonchalantly smiled, appearing very relaxed. “What about it? That lad trusts me, so I naturally trust in him. I couldn’t complete the mission of reviving the Orthodox Spiritualist lineage, nor could my two incompetent disciples, but I feel like Xia Fei might be able to do what we couldn’t.”
Wraith was very surprised, and he said in a hurry, “You think of him that highly? In other words, you truly intend to take him in as your final discip—no, if you take him under your wing, he won’t just be your last disciple; he’ll be the successor of the Orthodox Spiritualist path!”
Fuchen glanced at Wraith and chuckled. “What? Are you surprised? You don’t trust my eyes?”
Wraith did not reply. Glancing at Xia Fei as he disappeared into the streets, he muttered, “You said the same thing when you took Basalt and Ling Xing…”
“Uh…”
Fuchen was speechless, an embarrassed look on his face.
*Bang!*
The door of Chaos Society was pushed open, and Xia Fei confidently strode in.
“Who are you looking for?! This is Chaos Society! Those unaffiliated with it aren’t permitted entry!”
“Stop right there, or else we’ll have to use force!”
Chaos Society’s security hurried to stop Xia Fei, their attitude unfriendly.
At this moment, Wistful Northgaze, who was waiting in the courtyard, spotted Xia Fei and quickly came over. “Everyone, this is my Aurora Clan’s kinsman. It’s not a problem at all.”
“Even a member of your family can’t be this rude. It’s not like your clan runs Chaos Society!”
After all, Chaos Society had a much higher status than the Aurora Clan. Thus, the guards not only refused to hear out Wistful Northgaze, they even grumbled about it.
There was nothing Wistful Northgaze could do except to shoot a glance at Xia Fei, trying to hint at him that he should follow the rules. At the same time, he continued smiling and seeking leniency for Xia Fei, in hopes that the guards would not make much trouble for the young man.
Xia Fei suddenly felt rather moved. Wistful Northgaze did not know that he was his great grandson, but he still risked offending Chaos Society to help him get out of this sticky situation. He truly was a nice guy.
*Pal*
Upon thinking this, Xia Fei got down on one knee and said, “Honored Great Grandfather, your great grandson, Xia Fei, pays his respects.”
‘Wistful Northgaze was startled, asking, “You… What did you say?!”
Xia Fei said solemnly, “Wistful Valley is my grandfather.”
Those words caused Wistful Northgaze to shudder!
He had felt some affection toward Xia Fei from the very start, finding him to be rather similar to his son, but he could not have imagined that Xia Fei was actually his great grandson!
At this moment, Chaos Society guards could not keep watching. Of them, the one with a slanted left eye grabbed Wistful Northgaze by the collar and viciously said, “This is Chaos Society. If you’ve got something to say, go back to your Aurora Clan and say it!”
The threat seemingly was not enough. This guard even raised his hand to strike Wistful Northgaze!
Suddenly, there was a silver flash of light, the fiendish blade, Nirvana, sliced down and cut off the man’s arm!
“You dare to touch my people, and I’ll kill you!” Xia Fei glared as he said this viciously.
Everyone paled in shock. No one had expected the rather inconspicuous Xia Fei to be so ruthless!
“Seize him!” the man with the severed arm shouted, two streaks of cold sweat running down his face.
*Whoosh whoosh whoosh!*
Eight people immediately surrounded Xia Fei, ready to seize him.
*Rumble!*
The thirteen-bladed Peacock Blue appeared!
The giant blades of grass instantly filled the courtyard! Waving around, they were shocking to behold!
Furball growled, a savage glint in his little eyes!
Seize Xia Fei? Did anyone ask his fierce friends about that?!
“Hurry and get Lord Ding and Lady Tong!” Liu Bao shouted.
The fiendish blade Nirvana, an Immemorial Mystical Armament, and the Holy Beast Shatterstar, not one of them was easy to deal with! Liu Bao instantly felt an immense pressure after Xia Fei revealed his trump cards, the scent of blood filling his nostrils! It was clear that this seemingly ordinary young
man was not ordinary at all! The men he had probably would be unable to restrain him, so he quickly called for Ding Qingrui and Tong Duoduo’s assistance.
Perhaps because Xia Fei’s precious companions were too terrifying, Chaos Society guards did not dare to attack him, only choosing to surround him.
“You’re really my great grandson!” At this moment, Wistful Northgaze began to weep. There was a huge smile plastered on his face.
He did not recognize anything else, but he did recognize Peacock Blue!
Peacock Blue was one of the reasons Wistful Valley had been driven out of the Aurora Clan. Ina sudden impulse, Wistful Valley, his son, stole a few things from that mysterious old woman, and those included the Immemorial Mystical Armaments and the strange Law of Primal Chaos…
Xia Fei had an Immemorial Mystical Armament and was similar to the son, whom he had missed dearly. Wistful Northgaze finally believed that Xia Fei was his great grandson!
“Great Grandfather,” Xia Fei frowned and sternly said, “for various reasons, I had to hide the truth. Please forgive me for this sin.”
“No worries! It’s fine as long as you’re back! It’s fine! Hurry up and come home with me! Your grandmother is so worried she’s almost gone blind from crying…” Wistful Northgaze’s words were rather garbled, the mixture of various emotions like joy, sorrow, and anger leaving him somewhat unable to
speak.
“After hurting my people, where do you think you’re going?! Surround them! Wait for our two superiors to get here!” Liu Bao spat.
Wistful Northgaze nervously stood in front of Xia Fei, a faint darkness appearing on his kind face. Presumably, he was on the verge of exploding.
It was said that everyone in the Aurora Clan had a good temper, but this did not mean that they had no temper. It was just that the Aurora Clan understood how to endure and rarely had emotional outbursts.
Xia Fei continued to hold his head high, casually looking around. The ruthlessness of a death god could be gleaned in his eyes, which caused all of Chaos Society’s guards to step back unconsciously. Everyone found it hard to understand how someone as young as Xia Fei could have such a murderous aura.
Such grave and somber eyes could only be possessed by someone who had clambered out of a pile of corpses.
It was not long before the people in the room came out, and they included Tong Duoduo, Ding Qingrui, and Aurora Clan Patriarch Wistful Heizus.
Wistful Heizus froze the moment he spotted Xia Fei. He was among those who had objected to driving out Wistful Valley; alas, he wielded little influence then and could not fight back against those old men from the Elder Court.
So many years had passed, and now, Xia Fei, who looked rather similar to Wistful Valley, had appeared. Wistful Heizus could not help but think back to the past, becoming a little absentminded.
“What’s going on here?!” Ding Qingrui roared. Li Jindou’s collusion with someone had just been revealed, and Ding Qingrui was in a terrible mood.
Liu Bao reported in haste, “This man claims to be from the Aurora Clan. He barged into Chaos Society and hurt one of our brothers!”
Ding Qingrui frowned. The Aurora Clan was clearly being looked after by a Spiritualist, but it still should not act so brazenly because of that. Injuring one of his people was slapping Chaos Society in the face.
Behind Ding Qingrui, Suzu was startled. She had not expected Xia Fei to appear here so suddenly. She originally surmised that Xia Fei had made her take the stage precisely because he did not want to reveal himself, but for some reason, Xia Fei had changed his mind and paid a personal visit.
Ding Qingrui angrily glared at Xia Fei and was just about to rebuke him. Suzu had sharp eyes, and she knew that this would probably lead to Xia Fei quarreling with Chaos Society, which would benefit no one.
Thus, Suzu pulled on Ding Qingrui and whispered into his ear.
“Really?!” Ding Qingrui went pale.
Suzu nodded slightly as she threw Xia Fei a glance.
“Haha! So it’s been all a misunderstanding! Little Brother, please come this way!” Ding Qingrui was truly a crafty old fox, shifting stances very quickly, his anger dissolving into a fawning smile.
*Hmph!*
Xia Fei snorted as he prepared to walk over. At this moment, the slant-eyed guard, with nowhere else to vent his rage, grabbed Wistful Northgaze and said, “Lord Ding, you have got to support me on this! You can’t let them off this easily!”
*Plush!*
Xia Fei swung his weapon!
This time, it was not just an arm. He ended this man’s life! His blade swung down, cleaving the guard in half!
“As I said, T’l kill anyone who touches my people, but you refused to listen,” Xia Fei looked around and said coolly, his face dark.. “The Aurora Clan has never harmed anyone, but that’s only when I wasn’t around! Things will be different now!”
