The Tianyun Clan was located in the mountains in the south of the Tianzhou. On the peak of a towering mountain, there was a huge and magnificent palace. The palace was surrounded by mountains and was surrounded by clouds all year round, like a celestial mountain.
The Tianyun Clan was the strongest clan in the Empire of Fire. There were tens of thousands of disciples in the clan and many powerhouses.
In a small palace in the Tianyun Clan, this was the private dormitory that the Tianyun Clan had arranged for Huangfu Zhan Tian. The treatment was extremely good, which showed how much the Tianyun Clan valued Huangfu Zhan Tian.
Huangfu Zhan Tian's talent was extremely high, almost close to the talent of an eighth-grade Martial Soul. His cultivation had reached the fifth level of the Origin Core stage, so his strength was definitely powerful.
Among the many disciples of the Tianyun Clan, Huangfu Zhan Tian's strength was ranked in the top three!
The one who ranked first in strength was the young master of the Tianyun Clan, Gu Aotian. He was a few years older than Huangfu Zhan Tian and was already at the seventh level of the Origin Core stage. His strength was extremely terrifying.
Huangfu Zhan Tian stood at the door, looking at the sky with a cold expression. There was a hint of fierceness in his eyes, which made people not dare to look directly at him.
"Senior Huangfu, the clan leader and elders are waiting for you in the main hall."
At this time, a disciple came to inform him.
"Is Junior Sister Ling 'er back?" Huangfu Zhan Tian asked expressionlessly.
"No … not yet," the disciple said in a trembling voice in horror.
The disciples of the Tianyun Clan had already heard the news from Peerless City. At this moment, everyone knew that Huangfu Zhan Tian was furious.
It had been less than twelve hours since the end of the battle, but Mo Ling 'er had not returned to the Tianyun Clan. Huangfu Zhan Tian was also a little worried.
With Mo Ling 'er's cultivation, it would take at most two hours to return to the Tianyun Clan from Peerless City.
Now that she had not returned for so long, could something have happened to her?
"Tell me when Junior Sister Ling 'er is back," Huangfu Zhan Tian instructed, then walked in the direction of the main hall.
Passing through the square of the palace, many disciples called Huangfu Senior. Huangfu Zhan Tian's status in the Tianyun Clan was quite high.
"This matter is a big blow to Junior Huangfu Zhan Tian. Don't disturb him for the time being." At the entrance of another small palace, a disciple was watching Huangfu Zhan Tian, who was heading to the main hall.
"Eldest Senior Brother, I heard that Feng Wuchen is a nominal student of the academy. He's at the ninth level of the Origin Transformation Realm. That brat's strength isn't simple. Otherwise, Junior Brother Huangfu wouldn't have died in his hands," said a disciple.
"Senior Brother Huangfu will never let him off. Not just anyone can kill the disciples of the Tianyun Clan." Another disciple sneered.
"Feng Wuchen is the commander of the empire. He has a high position and power. We are not qualified to discuss this matter. All of you, shut your mouths. The sect master and the elders know what to do," the man who was addressed as Eldest Senior Brother said lightly.
Huangfu Zhan Tian entered the main hall. The Tianyun Clan's Master, elders, and higher-ups were already waiting there.
The middle-aged man sitting on the main seat was the Tianyun Clan's Master, Gu Qingxuan. He exuded an extremely powerful aura. Even if he tried to hide it, one could still feel the powerful and terrifying aura.
Gu Qingxuan was dressed in a black brocade. His long hair was tied up. He looked quite handsome. The aura he exuded was the Sky Origin Stage!
Beside Gu Qingxuan was the Tianyun Clan's Guardian, Gu Qingshan. He was Gu Qingxuan's younger brother and was at the eighth level of the Origin Core Stage.
Below the main seat was the Grand Elder, Lu Xingchen. He had white hair and a face full of wrinkles. However, he was a powerhouse with an extremely high cultivation. He was at the eighth level of the Origin Core Stage and was also an alchemist!
Everyone in the empire knew about Lu Xingchen's reputation. He was like the Grand Preceptor of the empire with a high status.
Second Elder, Leng Xuan Feng, was also an old man. He wore a gray robe and was at the seventh level of the Origin Core Stage.
Third Elder, Yi Yun, was at the sixth level of the Origin Core Stage. At the same time, he was the Tianyun Clan's Deacon Elder and was in charge of many trivial matters in the Tianyun Clan.
Just based on these few people's terrifying cultivation, one could see how terrifying the Tianyun Clan's strength was. Moreover, there were hundreds of Origin Core powerhouses in the Tianyun Clan.
"Greetings, Sect Master, Guardian, Elder." Huangfu Zhan Tian bowed respectfully.
Gu Qingshan nodded and said solemnly, "Zhan Tian, you're a genius disciple of the Tianyun Clan. You should know how important you are to the Tianyun Clan. We all know about what happened to Huangfu's family. None of us wanted such a thing to happen. We asked you to come because we wanted to ask for your opinion."
"Zhan Tian will always remember the Tianyun Clan's nurturing of me. Without the Tianyun Clan, I wouldn't be who I am today! I, Huangfu Zhan Tian, am a member of the Tianyun Clan. Even if I die, I'll be a ghost of the Tianyun Clan, "Huangfu Zhan Tian said firmly.
"We're also very sad that something like this happened to Huangfu's family. We're also worried that it will affect your cultivation," Guardian Gu Qingshan said.
Huangfu Zhan Tian fell silent. This matter was related to the empire and the Tianyun Clan. If it wasn't handled well, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Looking at Huangfu Zhan Tian, Gu Qingxuan said, "Zhan Tian, the Huangfu family is in the wrong in this matter. The Yang family and the Mo family wanted to use this opportunity to destroy the Feng family during Feng Zhengxiong's birthday celebration. The Huangfu family's help is indeed an act of defiance."
This wasn't just defiance. They were simply trying to destroy the Feng family!
Feng Wuchen was already being merciful by not immediately sending people to flatten the Huangfu family.
"However, Feng Wuchen killed a disciple of the Tianyun Clan. We will not let this matter rest," Third Elder Yi Yun said in a deep voice.
Huangfu Zhan Tian said solemnly, "Sect Master, I also know that the Huangfu family has offended their superiors and offended the Great Commander. However, the Great Commander killed my brother and the Grand Elder of the Huangfu family. I will not tolerate this."
Logically speaking, Huangfu Zhan Tian also knew that it was the Huangfu family's fault. However, no matter what, Huangfu Qing was his brother. How could he sit back and do nothing?
Without waiting for the Sect Master and the others to speak, Huangfu Zhan Tian continued, "Sect Master, don't worry. I plan to handle this matter myself. I also know that this matter will cause a feud between the empire and the Tianyun Clan. I understand that when two tigers fight, one of them is bound to be injured. However, I don't want to involve the Tianyun Clan in this matter. I will use my own means to deal with Feng Wuchen."
"Your own means?" Gu Qingxuan and the others looked at each other.
They knew Huangfu Zhan Tian's character too well. After such an incident, Huangfu Zhan Tian would definitely not let the matter rest. He would definitely seek revenge on Feng Wuchen.
Gu Qingxuan frowned deeply and said, "Zhan Tian, we will not stop you from doing what you want to do. However, I hope that you can consider it carefully. Do not act rashly. You have to deal with this matter calmly. For the time being, we do not know if the Great Commander will pursue this matter."
"Sect Master, don't worry. I know what to do," Huangfu Zhan Tian said.
After Huangfu Zhan Tian left the hall, Gu Qingxuan and the others had solemn expressions.
"The Tianyun Clan and the empire have always minded their own business and have always respected each other. However, that punk Feng Wuchen has completely disregarded the Tianyun Clan," Yi Yun said in a deep voice as his old eyes flashed with ruthlessness.
Gu Qingxuan said solemnly, "This matter is not Feng Wuchen's fault. If it were anyone else, they would have already sent troops to deal with the Huangfu family. Huangfu Qing was too rash and did not consider the consequences."
"I will make a trip to the imperial capital. I hope that this matter can be settled. It's all because Feng Master is not to be trifled with. His ability to create an artifact with a thought is probably something that even the powerful refiners of the continent might not be able to do," Gu Qingxuan said solemnly. With that said, he disappeared.
Gu Qingxuan and company fell silent when they thought of Feng Wuchen's terrifying identity.
The stronger the sect, the more they knew how terrifying a fifth-grade refiner was. Furthermore, Feng Wuchen was a young junior. His future was limitless. It was not a wise move to make him their enemy.
"Junior Brother Huangfu." Huangfu Zhan Tian walked out of the hall and was suddenly stopped by someone.
"Junior Clan Master," Huangfu Zhan Tian greeted respectfully.
A young man and a dozen disciples walked over. The man in white leading them was the junior clan master of the Tianyun Clan, Gu Aotian. Behind him were the older generation of disciples of the Tianyun Clan.
Gu Aotian patted Huangfu Zhan Tian's shoulder and said, "We are brothers. I won't waste time on nonsense. If you need any help, just let me know."
"Thank you, Junior Clan Master!" Huangfu Zhan Tian nodded.
"Senior Brother Huangfu Zhan Tian, us too!" The other disciples echoed.
"I don't want to implicate the Tianyun Clan in this matter! I will use my own method to deal with Feng Wuchen! I will fight to the death! "Huangfu Zhan Tian said as he walked towards the Tianyun Clan.
At the entrance of the hall, Gu Qingxuan appeared in a flash. He sighed softly and said, "Zhan Tian has been consumed by hatred."
The Tianyun Clan did not want to be enemies with the Empire. The Empire did not want to be enemies with the Tianyun Clan. Similarly, Feng Wuchen did not want to be enemies with the Tianyun Clan!
Huangfu Zhan Tian's family would not let Feng Wuchen off, and Feng Wuchen would not show mercy to Huangfu Zhan Tian's family. Their hatred would only grow!
.....
After the news spread back to the Empire, the entire royal family was shaken. The State Preceptor and the Prince were furious. They immediately ordered that if Huangfu Zhan Tian's family dared to offend them again, they must be destroyed!
No one could bear the anger of a fifth-grade alchemist and a fourth-grade weapon refiner, not to mention the State Preceptor and the Prince of the Empire. With their status, their network of connections could be said to be very large, and no one dared to offend them.
Huangfu Zhan Tian's family had offended their superiors. Even the Emperor was quite angry, and many officials were trembling in fear. The Huangfu Zhan Tian's family was simply looking down on the Empire's authority!
However, the Emperor did not give any order to destroy the Huangfu Zhan Tian's family.
The Emperor was very clear about the relationship between the Huangfu Zhan Tian's family and the Tianyun Clan. He was probably doing this to give face to the Tianyun Clan. Otherwise, the Huangfu Zhan Tian's family would probably have lived through today.
The State Preceptor's order shocked all the forces in Tianzhou. It was enough to show how much the Empire valued Feng Wuchen.
The Feng Family was completely relieved. The State Preceptor's order meant that at least the Huangfu Zhan Tian's family would not attack the Feng Family for the time being.
Seven days passed in the blink of an eye. Feng Wuchen came out of cultivation. Today, he was going to the academy to participate in the new student competition!
The few of them had already promised Xing Tianfeng, so Feng Wuchen naturally could not go back on his word. Moreover, Feng Wuchen was also considered half a student of the academy.
Ling Xiaoxiao, Liu Qingyang, and Miao Qingqing went together.
The students of the Sky Flame Academy were very much looking forward to the strength of the nominal students!
The academy had already sealed off the news, so the students did not know Feng Wuchen's identity. They only knew that Feng Wuchen was a good-for-nothing from Wushuang City who had awakened a second-grade Martial Soul.
Only the Prince of the Imperial Family knew of Feng Wuchen's identity!
The genius students of the Skyflame Academy weren't weak, and Feng Wuchen was looking forward to exchanging blows with these geniuses. Rather than the empire's number one genius prince, Feng Wuchen was looking forward to fighting with them!
