Hearing the name Wutong Emperor, Xiao Yan subconsciously looked at Lin Feng. After some intensive study, he now had a better understanding of the phoenix race and the divine wutong tree.
Of course, these two demon races had always been mysterious and had little interaction with the outside world, so there wasn't much valuable information.
But even so, Xiao Yan has also heard of the great name of the Wutong Tree Emperor, because he is the current clan leader of the Divine Wutong Tree Demon Race, a Demon Race expert who has long reached the realm of Star Soul Unity. As a plant demon, his lifespan is incomparably long, it is unknown how many years he has lived.
Generally speaking, in Tianhuang Continent, only the saint emperor of the demon race, who was acknowledged by all demons, would be called emperor. For example, the last saint emperor of the demon race in Tianhai Youdu was called Youhuang.
The Golden Roc Sage called himself Roc Emperor as an encouragement to himself, reflecting his ambition and confidence. Although his subordinates obeyed him, the other powerful demon races didn't acknowledge it. The Enchantress's junior brother, the Celestial Wolf Sage, had once mocked the Golden Roc Sage to his face.
The situation of the Wutong Emperor was different from that of the Golden Roc Sage. This title was mainly an honorific and honorific used by the Wutong race and the phoenix race. The divine wutong tree was even more reclusive than the phoenix race, and the Wutong Emperor hadn't left the wutong forest for tens of thousands of years.
He was powerful and old enough, but he usually kept a low profile and didn't have the ambition or invasiveness to conquer the world of demons. Therefore, many demons tacitly agreed to this title and didn't take it too seriously. Some demons who were closer to the Wutong race and the phoenix race would even call him that.
Listening to Fei Ye and Mo Yu's simple introduction, Lin Feng and Xiao Yan found out that the Wutong Tree Emperor in the past naturally also had a companion Wutong tree. But she met with a calamity ten thousand years ago and the Wutong Tree Emperor could only protect her heart.
Ten thousand years ago, the ancient Great Sage of Kunpeng, Ocean Kunpeng, borrowed the Wutong Treeheart but unexpectedly died in the Divine Land together with it, so the Wutong Treeheart had never returned to the Wutong Emperor.
The Wutong Emperor had reached the third tier of the Undying Demon Soul, the realm of astral soul as one, which was equivalent to the third tier of the human Primordial Spirit fusing with the path. It was almost a world of its own, and it had basically broken away from the nature of living and dying together with the wutong tree.
Therefore, even without its companion, it had survived these ten thousand years alone.
Lin Feng listened quietly, his eyes looking straight at Fei Ye. He did not speak, but it was equivalent to a silent question.
Since the Wutong Emperor could survive without the Wutong Tree, Fei Ye didn't say anything.
Fei Ye and Mo Yu looked at each other with hesitation on their faces. Mo Yu wanted to say something, but Fei Ye shook her head and said, "Forget it, I'll say it."
He turned his head to look at Lin Feng and his disciple, as well as at Lin Tong. He said slowly, "This matter is a humiliation for the Phoenix Clan and the Wutong Clan. Very few people know about it, so your master and your disciple are not aware of it."
"His Majesty, the Wutong Tree Sovereign, once encountered a calamity thousands of years ago, causing his vitality to be greatly damaged. Although he did not die, his injuries have lingered to this day, and it is difficult to completely heal. To temporarily suppress his injuries, he needs the heart of the Wutong Tree, which is of the same origin as him, to cast an ancient curse."
Lin Feng pondered for a moment before asking, "What will happen to Tong 'er after I cast the spell?"
The two phoenixes' expressions became serious at the same time. Fei Ye replied solemnly, "They won't be harmed at all. Instead, they'll be enlightened by the Wutong Tree Sovereign's power, causing their spirituality and arcane energy to rise to the next level."
The phoenix race had always been true to their word. They never lied or lied. They were the most trustworthy and secure group in the Heaven Primal World.
After listening, Lin Feng slightly nodded his head. Xiao Yan secretly transmitted his voice to him and asked, "Master, can Tong 'er be considered the reincarnation of that Tung Tree? If that's the case, wouldn't she and that Wutong Tree Emperor be … "
Xiao Yan swallowed the words' an old cow preying on young grass' when they reached the tip of his tongue.
"Tong 'er is a spirit monster. She can't be considered a reincarnation of a tree demon, and she can't even be considered a clone. However, she can't be considered a bloodline descendant either. If I really have to say it, she's more like a master and disciple who have inherited the principles." Lin Feng said plainly, "What she inherited is the concept of the principles that the Tung Tree Sovereign cultivated after it became a demon."
"With that as the foundation, you and I enlightened her spirituality. Then, she refined the original Wutong Tree Heart and turned it into a part of herself. She can be considered a member of the Wutong race."
After Lin Feng finished speaking to Xiao Yan he looked towards Fei Ye and Mo Yu, opening his mouth and saying with a calm expression: "Even though I have never met the Wutong Emperor, we can be considered to have been friends for a long time. He met with a calamity, because Tong 'er was lost in the belly of the Sea Sky Kunpeng, that's why he suffered for thousands of years."
"Now that Tong 'er has seen the light of day again, it means that it's time for the Wutong Tree Emperor's calamity to turn for the better."
Hearing Lin Feng's words, joy appeared in Fei Ye and Mo Yu's eyes. Fei Ye cupped his hands at Lin Feng. "My race and the Wutong race can't thank the Master of Mystic Gate for your righteousness."
Lin Feng waved his hand. "But I'll say this first. You must ensure Tong 'er's safety. After resolving the Wutong Tree Emperor's calamity, I want her to return to the mountain safe and sound."
Although Lin Feng's expression was calm, Fei Ye and Mo Yu's hearts trembled. Slowly, the two phoenixes nodded together. "That's how it should be. Master of Mystic Gate, don't worry."
At this time, Xiao Yan started conversing with little Lin Tong. At first, the little guy blinked his big eyes, and there was even a layer of mist covering his eyes. He asked pitifully: "Grandpa and daddy don't want Tong 'er anymore?"
"Silly girl." Xiao Yan rubbed her little head. "How could Godfather not want you? This time, you're going to the Wutong Forest to save someone. Once it's over, you can naturally return to the mountain to reunite with Godfather and Grandpa. "
The little girl sucked on her finger and asked in a childish voice, "Save someone?"
After thinking about it carefully, she made a request, "Then can Grandpa and Daddy go with me?"
Fei Ye and Mo Yu looked at each other. Mo Yu looked troubled. The Wutong Forest had been sealed off for many years. No outsiders could step into it.
"Sure." Fei Ye pondered for a moment and said resolutely, "The Master of Mystic Gate is righteous. You extended a helping hand to our two races and helped His Majesty the Wutong Tree Emperor to heal. You're a friend of the Phoenix Race and the Wutong race. Your presence brings light to our humble Wutong Forest. We should welcome you with open arms."
Although Fei Ye had attained the Indestructible Demon Soul Realm, his position in the Phoenix Race was not enough for him to make such an important decision.
However, with the habits of the Phoenix Race and the Wutong race, this was a decision that would not cause much controversy among the clansmen.
Repaying favors was also one of the Phoenix Race's main characters.
Lin Feng said indifferently, "I also yearn to go to the Wutong Forest. However, I've been busy with mundane matters recently and have no time to spare."
He sent a voice transmission to Xiao Yan. "Xiao Yan, put aside whatever you're doing for now. You don't need me to teach you what to do when you head to the Wutong Forest in the Infinite Mainland, right?"
Xiao Yan pondered for a moment and a clear understanding flashed through his eyes. Although he did not show it on the surface, he secretly smiled at Lin Feng. "Don't worry, Master. I know what to do. I guarantee that I'll complete the mission."
Lin Feng smiled and said, "My eldest disciple, Xiao Yan, will represent me on this trip."
Xiao Yan nodded and cupped his fists at Fei Ye and Mo Yu. "Thank you for your hospitality."
Fei Ye and Mo Yu returned the greeting solemnly. "You're too polite. We should be the ones thanking you."
Little Lin Tong had no objections after confirming that Xiao Yan would be going with them. Although he still subconsciously hid behind Xiao Yan when he saw Fei Ye and Mo Yu approaching, he did not look at them as warily as when he looked at human traffickers. The two phoenixes did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Be it Fei Ye or Mo Yu, they were burning with anxiety and could not wait to bring Lin Tong back to the Infinite Mainland.
Since they had decided to help, Lin Feng and his disciple would not make things difficult for them. After settling his matters as soon as possible, Xiao Yan immediately set off with Little Lin Tong, Fei Ye and Mo Yu.
After watching Xiao Yan and the others leave, Lin Feng Silently stood on the branch of the Profound Sky Treasure Tree and pondered. A moment later, he asked, "Nanhua, what's the matter?"
A white-clothed youth broke through the void and arrived behind Lin Feng. It was the sect's protector, Kang Nanhua. He replied with a calm expression, "Sect Master, I've received news that the Shi and Yu clans of the Great Qin Dynasty have been very restless recently. Both parties have suddenly become close."
"Shi and Yu clans …" Lin Feng pondered in his heart after listening to Kang Nanhua's words. "The Great Qin Dynasty's aristocratic families are led by the four great clans. However, the Huo clan is very unsociable among them. The other three clans are of the same breath and branch, and have even become in-laws."
In particular, the Shi and Yu clans had the closest relationship. After that dual-pupiled individual, Shi Tianyi, had revealed his outstanding talent, the two clans had become even closer.
This was something that practically the entire world knew of, and Kang Nanhua naturally knew of it as well. However, he had solemnly reported this matter to Lin Feng. Obviously, the relationship between the two great clans was extremely close recently, and had already reached an abnormal state.
Since the day that Lin Feng took the little guy, Shi Tianhao, as his disciple, he knew that there would be a day where he would encounter the Shi and Yu clans sooner or later. This was because the conflict between Shi Tianhao and Big Stone, Shi Tianyi, was completely irreconcilable.
Unless the Shi clan changed their ways and gave up on Big Stone, they were bound to become the background of Little Stone's path of destiny.
If it was only Shi Tianhao alone, it would still be fine. However, Xuanmen Tianzong had already become a colossus that the Shi clan was completely unable to face alone. If they could change direction now, the Shi clan would definitely change direction without the slightest hesitation.
But unfortunately, they owed Shi Tianhao too much in the past, so much that they could only repay it by selling their entire clan's fortune.
The results were the same no matter what. The Shi clan could only walk down this path to the end, and there was no need to even mention the Yu clan.
Not mentioning the issue between Big Stone and Little Stone, many of the Yu clan's Yuanying ancestors had successively died at the hands of Xuanmen Tianzong. About half of the clan's forces had fallen in the process of colliding with Xuanmen Tianzong. Such hatred could be said to be absolutely irreconcilable.
"Is it the pressure from the Qin Dynasty's purging of the aristocratic families that forced them to become even closer, or is it because of me?" Lin Feng pondered inwardly, "If it's because of me, where does their confidence come from?"
