After a month of traveling nonstop, Yuan arrived at his destination, the Rising Phoenix Clan.
Even before he reached their residence, Yuan sensed a change in the atmosphere compared to his last visit. It was much stiffer and heavier, almost as if something grim had occurred recently.
"I wonder what happened." Feng Yuxiang muttered as she appeared beside Yuan.
"There's only one way to find out."
As Yuan and Feng Yuxiang approached their territory, several powerful presences suddenly appeared to intercept them.
"Halt right there and identify yourselves!"
"I'm Feng Yuxiang, and this is my Young Master. We have an appointment with your leader," Feng Yuxiang said calmly.
"Appointment? We haven't been informed of any such thing," the guard replied with a frown. "You'll have to turn around and leave."
"You can ask either Feng Zhenyan or the Grand Elder. They're expecting us." Feng Yuxiang continued.
