Chapter 6305: Chu Feng’s Steadfast

Before the Totem Dragon Clan’s Clan Chief could take a closer look, the people outside had already barged in. They were experts from the Dragon Breath Clan, led by Long Mucheng.

The Totem Dragon Clan’s Clan Chief was surprised by Long Mucheng’s appearance. The latter had previously left to attend to other business. Who could have thought that she would suddenly return at this moment?

A mere glance at the glowing bead in Long Mucheng’s grasp was enough for Chu Feng to understand why she was here. She must have come for Long Xiaoxiao.

Long Mucheng first glanced at Long Xiaoxiao and Ningyu Shangren before turning her sights to Chu Feng. “Chu Feng, she is...?”

She thought Chu Feng had also come here under the bead’s guidance.

“Xiaoxiao, come with me for a moment,” Chu Feng said as he led Long Xiaoxiao out.

“What’s wrong, Chu Feng?” Long Xiaoxiao asked in confusion.

Chu Feng took out the bead. They had already traveled a far distance away from the prison, but the bead continued to glow brightly.

“That person who barged in earlier is Long Mucheng, a Dragon Breath Clansman. The Dragon Breath Clan has been searching for two people to help them with a request. One of them is me, but they haven’t been able to find the other person so they asked me to help them. This bead is a tool that guides me to the other person,” Chu FEng said.

“Is the other person me?” Long Xiaoxiao pointed at herself.

“It has to be,” Long Mucheng interjected from behind. She had caught up with them at some point.

Chu Feng could tell from Long Mucheng’s expression that this matter was extremely important to her.

“Allow me to introduce the two of you. Elder, this is my good friend, Long Xiaoxiao. Xiaoxiao, this is Elder Long Mucheng,” Chu Feng said.

Long Xiaoxiao obediently bowed to Long Mucheng. “Junior pays respect to Elder Long.”

“You don’t have to be so polite.” Long Mucheng supported Long Xiaoxiao up before turning to Chu Feng. “Who could have thought the two people our Dragon Breath Clan has been looking for are good friends? Is this heaven’s will or a coincidence?”

“Elder, what do you need us to do?” Chu Feng asked.

“I need to trouble you to help us decipher an item. It’ll greatly benefit our clan if you succeed, but more importantly, we would also be fulfilling that lord’s mission,” Long Mucheng replied.

“May I ask who is the lord you’re referring to?” Chu Feng asked.

“My apologies, Chu Feng, but that lord prefers to maintain a low profile. It isn’t convenient for me to reveal his identity,” Long Mucheng replied.

“I understand. When should we decipher it?” Chu Feng asked.

“Right now,” Long Mucheng said.

Eggy immediately protested in Chu Feng’s ears, “That won’t do. Didn’t Little Fishy send a message earlier urging you to head to the Fortuitous Bloodline Mountain after saving your aunt and the others?”

Chu Feng also asked aloud, “Elder, is this matter that urgent?”

“Chu Feng, are you intending to head to the Fortuitous Bloodline Mountain? It is indeed a golden opportunity. I can understand you not wanting to miss this chance. However, deciphering this item has been the long-time wish of our Dragon Breath Clan. It wasn’t easy for us to find the two of you, and I don’t want anything to go wrong.

“Chu Feng, I promise you two that as long as you give it your all, regardless of whether you succeed or not, our Dragon Breath Clan will put our lives on the line to ensure your safety. I’m begging you here.”

Long Mucheng fell to her knees; she was kneeling not just to Chu Feng but to Long Xiaoxiao too.

“Elder, please get up. I’ll help you, all right?” Chu Feng quickly pulled Long Mucheng up.

He had a grasp of Long Mucheng’s character. She had helped him several times thus far and was trustworthy.

“All right, all right. Let’s help her then.” Even Eggy also took a step back.

She knew Chu Feng well. As important as fortuitous encounters were, Chu Feng valued his friendships more than that.

After obtaining Long Xiaoxiao’s consent, Chu Feng first returned and told the Totem Dragon Clan’s Clan Chief to free Ningyu Shangren. He then paid a visit to Long Zhuoyan to explain the situation. Only then did he leave with Long Mucheng.

Long Mucheng called practically everyone from the Dragon Breath Clan to go with them. Even those who were in their closed-door training were urged to come out of seclusion to help out. This further showed just how important this matter was to the Dragon Breath Clan.

“I’m sorry, Chu Feng,” Long Xiaoxiao suddenly whispered along the way.

“What’s with the sudden apology? Is it because of your master and the others?” Chu Feng asked.

“I was oblivious to what my master and the others did. My master only told me everything because she thought that she might die in this assault. I forced her to take me with her. I know you are on good terms with the Totem Dragon Clan, but my master’s safety was at stake, so I couldn’t divulge her movements to the Totem Dragon Clan. I... didn’t know what to do.” Long Xiaoxiao lowered her head, feeling conscience-stricken.

On the one hand was the master who nurtured her, and on the other hand was a power who was on close terms with her good friend. This put her in a spot.

“It’s fine, Xiaoxiao. There are bound to be things in the world that are beyond our control. The important thing is that you, Long Xiaoxiao, are my good friend. Nothing in this world can affect our relationship,” Chu Feng said.

Long Xiaoxiao looked as if a huge weight had been lifted from her shoulders. She smiled at Chu Feng. “You haven’t changed in the least despite having come so far. You’re still the same person I know from the Ancestral Martial Galaxy.”

She looked at Chu Feng with gleaming eyes.

It hadn’t been too long since she parted ways with Chu Feng, but many things had happened in the meantime.

The Nine Heavens’ Zenith.

The Luck Saint Realm.

The Immemorial Massacre Sea.

Chu Feng’s feats were nothing short of extraordinary.

Long Xiaoxiao had also grown a lot, but she hadn’t accomplished much, having been living under her master’s protection. She thought that there was bound to be some distance between them now that Chu Feng had become the strongest junior in the world of cultivation.

But now that they were reunited, she realized that Chu Feng was the same as before. It was hard to believe, but the fame and power didn’t change him.

And she liked how steadfast he was.

The Dragon Breath Clan’s destination was in the Totem Galaxy, but it was not located in any realm but in the middle of space.

Upon arriving at their destination, Long Mucheng took out an ancient key. It was over three meters long and resembled a weapon when she held it with both hands.
