"It's not a problem if you want to catch up with Hongyuan. However, he should be at Emerald Bamboo Peak right now. Without the permission of the Peak Lord, outsiders, especially men, are not allowed to go up the mountain. You can send someone up the mountain to send a message. I think that with your friendship with Hongyuan, it shouldn't be a problem!" Chen Tianxing said with a smile.
"Alright, thank you, Lord Chen. Father, I'll go and find Brother Hongyuan first!" Dongfang Feibai said happily.
"Seeing the friendship between the younger generation, us elders are very gratified!" Chen Tianxing said with a smile as he looked at Dongfang Feibai's back.
"Yes, it seems that the two of them have established a deep friendship in the Dead Zone!" Dongfang Hong nodded and said.
Although Dongfang Feibai didn't tell him how many resources Chen Hongyuan had obtained in the Dead Zone, judging from Dongfang Feibai's situation, Chen Hongyuan must have had a lot of resources.
The fact that the two of them could get so many resources showed that they trusted each other very much in the Dead Zone. If one of them was greedy, they wouldn't have all returned safely.
However, the Jiang Family's faces turned ugly when they saw the situation and especially when they heard Dongfang Hong's words.
For the other aristocratic families, not only did they not gain anything from the Dead Zone, but they had also lost a person.
Although losing a person wasn't a big deal, it meant that they would not gain anything. However, the Chen Family and the Dongfang Family had returned alive.
It was unknown whether they had obtained any resources in the Dead Zone, but as long as they came back alive, there would be some gains.
In this way, the Chen Family and the Dongfang Family obviously had more face than them.
Now, looking at Chen Tianxing and Dongfang Hong's proud faces, they had probably obtained some good things in the Dead Zone. Thinking of this, he felt even more unhappy.
Although he really wanted to ask them what they had obtained in the Dead Zone, he couldn't bring himself to do so.
In fact, the Jiang Family was considered average among the Nine Great Families, better than the Chen Family and the Dongfang Family.
However, the Jiang Family had lost to the Chen Family in the Nine Clan Competition. Finally, they had lost again in the Dead Zone, which made the Jiang Family lose a lot of face.
Moreover, with his prejudice against the Chen family, it was impossible for him to give face to Chen Tianxing, just because he sent an invitation letter out of the blue.
The reason why he did this was because he wanted to inquire about the Chen family's situation and see what good things the Chen family obtained in the Death Domain.
In addition, he was also worried that he might miss something if he didn't come since the other family heads were all here.
Now that he saw the younger generation of the Chen Family and the Dongfang Family being so close, he naturally felt very displeased.
Jiang Haoran, who was at the side, glanced at him indifferently. He didn't take it to heart.
To him, even if Dongfang Fei Bai came back alive from the Death Domain, it wouldn't be anything strange. Everyone had witnessed Dongfang Feibai's strength during the Nine Clans Tournament.
With his strength, if he said that he could come back alive from the Death Zone, then he must be lying. Perhaps he had found a safe place to hide in the Death Zone for three months.
Otherwise, the Death Zone was not as terrifying as the rumors made it out to be. If he had entered it, he would still be able to come back alive.
As for the friendship between the Chen family and the Dongfang family, that was merely a game between the weak.
As long as one had enough strength, why would they need these fake friendships? When an aristocratic family was truly facing a life and death situation, would others care about you?
What a joke!
Others could not wait for you to die earlier. Who would want to live and die with you? This was simply impossible.
Therefore, the Jiang Family did not need these so-called friendships between aristocratic families.
What they wanted was for the aristocratic families to continuously grow stronger. Aside from powerful strength, everything else was just fleeting clouds.

At the foot of the Emerald Bamboo Peak!
A young man was chatting with a disciple guarding the peak.
It was obvious that the young man was very anxious and angry, but there was nothing he could do.
The young man was Situ Yongkang. Originally, he wanted to meet Chen Xinran at the Chen Family.
However, after asking around, he found out that Chen Xinran basically stayed on the Emerald Cloud Peak and rarely came out.
He had no choice but to come to the Emerald Cloud Peak to pay a visit. However, after these disciples helped him pass on the message, Chen Xinran did not want to see him. This made him very unhappy.
Although Situ Yongkang wasn't a respectable person, this was the first time he was visiting someone he hadn't even met before.
If he were to return like this, wouldn't it be too embarrassing?
Therefore, no matter what, he had to meet Chen Xinran today.
This woman did not give him any face. If he were to marry her in the future, he would definitely teach her a lesson.
"Junior Sisters, I really came to pay a visit to your family's Young Miss. Please take this as my greeting gift to you. I only hope that you can let me go up the mountain to meet your family's Young Miss!" Situ Yongkang really had no other choice. In the end, he took out a storage pouch and handed it to the female disciples.
There were really some good things in this storage pouch. He didn't expect that he would have to give it to these low-level disciples. The most hateful thing was that he had to smile and say good things to them.
If this was the Situ Family, these disciples wouldn't even have the qualifications to talk to him.
"Young Master Situ, please take back your gift. It's not that we don't want you to go up the mountain, but our Young Miss doesn't want to see you. Young Master, please go back and don't make things difficult for us servants!" One of the female disciples returned the storage pouch with an awkward expression.
As the most famous woman in the Chen Family, Jade Bamboo Peak was always the place that people came to visit the most. However, their Young Miss was also the most disliked by people. Those who came because of her reputation were basically rejected.
"Accept these greeting gifts. As long as you help me pass a message and put in a good word for me, whether I succeed or not, these greeting gifts will be yours!" Situ Yongkang said.
As the young master of the Situ Family, how could he take back what he had given out?
Even if he wanted to take it back, he couldn't afford to lose face.
In fact, in the Cultivation World, this kind of thing was the rule. Regardless of the outcome, the gifts received by the direct disciples could not be taken back.
Of course, he could take it back, but he, Situ Yongkang, couldn't do such a shameful thing. Even if there were some good things inside, he could only brace himself and pretend to be generous.
"Alright! Then I'll help you pass the message again! "The female disciple guarding the peak was naturally overjoyed.
Regarding this kind of thing, they couldn't wait for people to visit them every day. Many times, when they met some generous visitors, they indeed had a lot of such gains.
