Chapter 6477: Your Senior Isn’t Just Anyone

“You’re so stingy, Junior Chu Feng. Have you forgotten that you owe me a favor?”

Wen Xue pouted as if she had been wronged. She looked innocent like a young lady oblivious to the ways of the world, but her eyes, which were nowhere as clear as Little Fishy’s, gleamed with slyness.

“I’ll return the favor, but I can’t give you this sword. You can’t control it anyway,” Chu Feng replied.

“Fine.” Wen Xue took the God Armament saber from Chu Feng, though her eyes remained on his Lightning Flame Sword. “Isn’t your sword a God Armament, too? How can it cut through my God Armament saber just like that?”

Chu Feng chuckled. “I can only say there’s a disparity between God Armaments.”

He had many God Armaments in his inventory, including invaluable ‘True’ character God Armaments, but the Lightning Flame Sword was the only ‘Heaven’ character God Armament he had.

Having wielded the Lightning Flame Sword, he could say with certainty that it wielded prowess far surpassing that of other God Armaments. That was also why he had made that earlier slash.

“How did you end up in the Netherworld Sect?” Chu Feng asked.

“I realized that the Netherworld Embryo is beneficial to my cultivation, so I joined the Netherworld Sect to get one. I ended up triggering the guidance of the Divine Vat and caught the eye of Wuma Hanshuang. She insisted on taking me in as her disciple,” Wen Xue said.

“Do you identify as a Netherworld Sectmember or a Hidden Dragon Martial Sectmember now?” Chu Feng asked.

“I don’t think they are mutually exclusive?” Wen Xue asked.

Chu Feng sighed, though he knew this was Wen Xue’s personality. “You have made great advancements in your cultivation.”

He could sense that Wen Xue’s base cultivation was rank seven True God level, which was higher than his.

“Shouldn’t you know me better? I’m not a real junior. Do you think my countless years of accumulation would have been in vain? I would have to be inept to grow slowly. I’m more surprised with you, Junior Chu Feng. Were you an old monster as well? How did you grow this quickly? This doesn’t make sense,” Wen Xue said.

“All right, let’s stop heaping compliments on each other. Since you’re a Netherworld Sectmember, senior, I’d like to request your help,” Chu Feng said.

“You wish to enter the Ancestral Martial Spiritist Sect’s remnant, right? You already owe me a favor, but you still want to take advantage of me? Junior Chu Feng, I didn’t take you to be such a person.” Wen Xue crossed her arms and shook her head.

“Please help me, senior. I know your heart is still with the Hidden Dragon Martial Sect even though you joined the Netherworld Sect, right? You can trust me to jump to your rescue if you’re ever in need of help in the future,” Chu Feng said.

“There’s no need to wait for the future. You can do it right now,” Wen Xue stated.

“I’m serious when I said you can’t control this sword. You can give it a try if you doubt my words, but you’ll suffer a backlash.”

“I’m not so callous as to extort my junior’s weapon. You can help me with something else.”

“What is it?”

“The Ancestral Martial Spiritist Sect’s remnant.”

“Oh?”

Wen Xue shared with Chu Feng what she was after.

Wen Xue was no ordinary entity; she was a natural oddity that cultivated into a human. Naturally, she wielded powers that other humans didn’t have.

She sensed that a demonic entity was sealed inside the Ancestral Martial Spiritist Sect’s remnant, and this demonic entity was beneficial to the nurturing of her bloodline.

Since the Ancestral Martial Spiritist Sect had left that remnant behind to pass down its legacy to the later generations, it was unlikely that they would place a demonic entity there to ambush the successor of their legacy. It was more likely that the demonic entity was placed there as a reward for clearing the remnant.

“Fine. Take me into the remnant. If I obtain the demonic entity and can control it, I’ll give it to you,” Chu Feng declared.

“We’ll enter the remnant together,” Wen Xue said.

“Together? I thought the Netherworld Sect forbade anyone from entering it?” Chu Feng asked.

“Indeed. The Netherworld Sect plans to hand this remnant to the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion.” Wen Xue proceeded to tell Chu Feng about the Netherworld Sect’s intention to work with the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion.

Chu Feng wasn’t surprised. The Netherworld Sect, as a cultivator sect, had no reason to be interested in the Ancestral Martial Spiritist Sect’s remnant. It made more sense for them to have claimed the remnant as leverage to negotiate a partnership with the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion.

But what Wen Xue revealed next surprised Chu Feng. She told him what the Netherworld Sect needed the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion’s help for.

The Netherworld Sect coveted an unknown power but wasn’t confident of obtaining it, so they sought the help of powerful world spiritists. The Seven Realms Sacred Mansion was the perfect choice for that.

But that, in itself, was not enough to surprise Chu Feng. What surprised him was where the unknown power was located—the Undying Starfield.

“You’re saying the unknown power is at the Undying Starfield? The Ancestral Martial Galaxy’s Undying Starfield?”

Chu Feng was familiar with the Undying Starfield.

He, together with the Mystic Cave Saints, had ventured into the Great Monstrous Slayer Emperor’s tomb, encountered the Great Monstrous Slayer Emperor’s fragmented soul, obtained his acknowledgment and the Monstrous Slayer Sword.

However, the Great Monstrous Slayer didn’t leave his true legacy at the tomb but the Undying Starfield’s Flowersea Ordinary Realm.

And the key to opening the treasure was the Monstrous Slayer Sword.

Before the Great Monstrous Slayer Emperor’s soul dissipated, he reminded Chu Feng that he had to reach Martial Exalted level before heading to the Flowersea Ordinary Realm to unlock his tombstone.

When Chu Feng finally reached the required cultivation level and made his way to the Flowersea Ordinary Realm to claim the legacy, he discovered that the entire Undying Starfield had vanished.

“Yes, it’s the Holy Light Galaxy’s Undying Starfield. No no no, I mean the Ancestral Martial Galaxy’s Undying Starfield,” Wen Xue replied.

“Why did they move the Undying Starfield to the Bloodline Galaxy? That should be a difficult feat even for the Netherworld Sect, right?” Chu Feng asked.

It was an inconceivable feat, even to the current him. The Netherworld Sect must have paid a hefty price to pull it off. There must be a reason they had gone to this extent for it.

“You’re right, but the Netherworld Sect has a treasure to accomplish that. They had to do it to nourish the Undying Starfield with the Bloodline Galaxy’s energy,” Wen Xue replied.

“So, their goal is only that unknown power. Did they find anything else in the Undying Starfield?” Chu Feng was referring to the Great Monstrous Slayer Emperor’s tomb.

“I haven’t heard anything about that. Most treasures in the Ancestral Martial Galaxy have been claimed in the earlier years of the present era. What valuable items can there be in the Undying Starfield?” The sharp-witted Wen Xue knew right away what Chu Feng was asking.

Chu Feng breathed a sigh of relief.

He had suspected that the Netherworld Sect was behind the Undying Starfield’s disappearance, but back then, he thought they were after the Great Monstrous Slayer Emperor’s tomb. From the looks of it now, they were after something else. This hinted that the Great Monstrous Slayer Emperor’s tomb might still be intact in the Flowersea Ordinary Realm.

“Are you able to enter the Undying Starfield?” Chu Feng asked.

“Do you think they will allow anyone to enter the Undying Starfield?” Wen Xue asked.

“That’s true.” Chu Feng nodded with a smile.

The Netherworld Sect had assigned a Netherworld Marshall to guard the Ancestral Martial Spiritist Sect’s remnant when it was merely a bargaining chip. Their security for the Undying Starfield would only be tighter than this.

But then Wen Xue added, “But I am not just anyone. I can enter the Undying Starfield.”
