"How is it? Did you miss me?"
After a moment of dizziness, Du Feng was teleported to the Sutra Pavilion of the Seven Basaltic Mansions. When he opened his eyes, he saw Tang Jiaojiao instead of the elder.
Du Feng was speechless when he heard Tang Jiaojiao's question. He wondered if the elder deliberately tricked him to come back to make his granddaughter happy. In order to rush back as soon as possible, he had disregarded everything and even encountered an attack on the way.
"Brat, take this."
Fortunately, the Cabinet Elder walked in at this moment. The first thing he did was to hand the Tianhu Mirror to Du Feng. Back then, Tang Jiaojiao had only managed to obtain the Tianhu Mirror with his help. It was also because of this Tianhu Mirror that the elder could show off his skills when fighting against alien creatures.
With the help of the Monster Nucleus, the elder's Cultivation had advanced to the third level of the Ascendant Realm. Du Feng could feel that although the elder's Cultivation was not as high as the Deputy City Lord of the Southern City. In terms of strength, he was definitely stronger. After all, the person in charge of the Martial Scripture Pavilion in the Seven Basaltic Mansions had some unknown means.
"Just me?"
After receiving the Tianhu Mirror, Du Feng still couldn't believe it. According to the elder's character, he would never give him benefits for free. Under normal circumstances, this kind of thing was for Du Feng to act as a bodyguard to protect Miss Tang Jiaojiao along the way.
"Nonsense, there's only one spot."
The elder spoke loudly and spittle sprayed all over Du Feng's face. If it wasn't for the fact that the mission was too dangerous, he would also want his granddaughter to go. However, Tang Jiaojiao's strength was simply not enough. First of all, her Cultivation was only at the seventh level of the Ascendant Realm. In addition, she couldn't be invincible in the same realm like Du Feng.
According to the elder's estimation, the people who were going on this mission should be at the peak of the ninth level of the Ascendant Realm. Du Feng, who was at the eighth level of the Ascendant Realm, was already a special case. If he wasn't 100% a newcomer, he wouldn't have recommended him.
"Words cannot express my gratitude!"
Since that was the case, Du Feng would not stand on ceremony with the Cabinet Elder. After all, Kenji was the one who killed otherworld creatures in the past. Even the Pavilion Elder might not have been able to return alive if not for the Tianhu Mirror. It was said that the situation this time was special. The spatial crack was relatively large, and a large number of otherworldly beings were pouring into the War God Continent. Therefore, the number of martial artists who were sent to carry out the mission was also more than the last time. But among them, would there be a peerless genius like Kenji?
He was really looking forward to it. Frankly speaking, Du Feng was a little excited. Although the cultivators who entered the Mystic Realm to carry out their missions were the elites of the various large clans or sects, they were nothing compared to the cultivators who fought against the otherworldly creatures.
This time, when Du Feng went, he would definitely see geniuses among geniuses. It was very likely that he would meet people who were even more monstrous than him. It was estimated that every one of them could kill an ordinary Ascendant Realm martial artist with the Ascendant Realm Cultivation Realm.
"What are you thanking me for? Hurry up and set off."
The Cabinet Elder didn't have time to talk to Du Feng because there wasn't much time left. He took Du Feng directly to the meeting hall of the Seven Basaltic Mansions.
Uh … As soon as he entered the meeting hall, Du Feng was a little dumbfounded. This was because the Mansion Master, the Deputy Mansion Master, and the Five Elders were all present. Together with the Cabinet Elder, it meant that the management of the Seven Basaltic Mansions were basically all present.
"It's not fair. Why should he go? I think Hua Chen's level is higher than his."
The First Elder of the Five Elders was protesting to the Mansion Master. He felt that the only precious place should not be given to a newcomer like Du Feng. He had only joined the Seven Basaltic Mansions for a short period of time. Why should he take up such a precious place? He had only joined the Seven Basaltic Mansions for a short period of time. Why should he take up such a precious place?
This time, the Pavilion Master of the Martial Arts Pavilion was not going. Although they also had objections, the Pavilion Master was senior enough. This time, the Cabinet Elder was not going, but the person recommended by the Pavilion Master was going. How could they let others live? The Hua Chen that the First Elder mentioned was the Eldest Senior Brother who had occupied the Cultivation Room on the Ninth Floor of the Vitality Tower for a long time.
"Why don't we let Hua Chen compete with Du Feng? Whoever wins will go."
The Second Elder was also unconvinced because Hua Chen's level had surpassed the Five Elders. It could be said that no Ascendant Realm martial artist in the Seven Basaltic Mansions could defeat him. If the Pavilion Master of the Martial Arts Pavilion had not broken through to the Ascendant Realm, he might not be a match for Hua Chen.
"There's no need for that. If Hua Chen had the ability, he would have gone to the Weiyang Continent long ago. He wouldn't have stayed here for so many years without making any progress."
Without waiting for the Mansion Master to speak, the Deputy Mansion Master spoke first. He knew that Hua Chen's level was not bad. He might be the best among the disciples of the Seven Basaltic Mansions. However, compared to Du Feng, who had been in the Weiyang Continent for a period of time and had successfully entered the Cloud Capital, Hua Chen was nothing.
Putting everything else aside, just the fact that he could pass through the primeval forest and enter the Cloud Capital alive was not something an ordinary person could do.
"What's so great about going to the Weiyang Continent? I don't believe he is stronger than Hua Chen."
The Grand Elder was still unconvinced. He felt that Du Feng's level might not even be comparable to his. How could he be stronger than Hua Chen?
"Let's compete. We won't accept it even if we don't."
The Second Elder, the Third Elder, and the others followed suit. To put it bluntly, the Five Elders were of one mind.
"All of you, shut up. This was decided by my Master. No one can change it."
Seeing that these people were arguing endlessly, the Mansion Master decided to speak his mind. No one could change it, because this was decided by his Master. Who was his Master? It was the previous Mansion Master. After that old man retired, he focused on cultivation. He was now an Ultimate Emperor Realm expert.
Uh … Everyone shut up when they heard this. Only Du Feng laughed inwardly. He knew that the Cabinet Elder was not so kind. It was not as simple as him going against the majority's opinion and recommending him. If it was just him, even if he could go against the Five Elders, he might not be able to pass the Mansion Master's test.
Why did the Mansion Master recommend him? Did he know what happened in the Weiyang Continent? Or did the old man know that he had killed the Southern City's Deputy City Lord? No matter what, he had to complete the mission of fighting against the otherworldly creatures.
