Upon seeing Mo Tang again, Feng Qing'er was shocked.
If she remembered correctly, her master had been stuck at the peak of the three-star Dou Zun realm for decades, unable to break through the bottleneck of the four-star Dou Zun…
But looking at her junior brother, a fellow clansman, whom she had only known for less than a year, he was already a four-star Dou Zun.
What was this?
The world of geniuses was truly beyond the understanding of us mortals!
The black-robed elder beside her also looked at the young man with a shocked expression, asking uncertainly, "Qing'er, are you sure you haven't mistaken him? Is he really the Mo Tang you mentioned?"
Feng Qing'er nodded helplessly, confirming his identity once more.
She understood the elder's feelings; it was the truth, and quite a blow.
However, after the initial shock, the black-robed elder's eyes gleamed with a sharp light!
"This person possesses such miraculous abilities! Could his bloodline be comparable to that of the Three Phoenixes of my clan?"
But how could that be possible!
Whether it's the Three Phoenixes of the Heavenly Demon Clan or Clan Chief Huang Tian, their breakthrough to the Dou Sheng level is entirely due to the concentration of the ancient Heavenly Phoenix bloodline within them.
Clan Chief Huang Tian is a mystery even within the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan… but the Three Phoenixes of the Heavenly Demon Clan are direct descendants of the ancient Heavenly Phoenix.
Since this young man is also from the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, his leap in cultivation is likely due to the sufficient concentration of the ancient Heavenly Phoenix bloodline within him. This allows him to cultivate without any bottlenecks, automatically leveling up as long as he has enough energy…
This terrifying cultivation speed isn't just a characteristic of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, but a common trait among races like the Ancient Void Dragon and even the Eight Ancient Clans, where bloodline determines everything!
What outsiders perceive as requiring immense time and effort to cultivate and improve cultivation levels is, in the eyes of these races, a leap of ten or more levels at once is perfectly normal.
Of course, this race, where everything is determined by bloodline, has a fatal flaw: the bloodline level severely limits individual strength!
Like the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, despite being one of the top magical beast forces, apart from the clan leader and the Three Heavenly Phoenixes, members with slightly weaker bloodlines have absolutely no chance of even touching the Saint level…
This situation has remained unchanged for thousands of years!
"This boy's identity is definitely not simple. It seems I must bring him back to the clan so the clan leader can personally examine him…"
In an instant, the black-robed elder had made his decision.
…
…
Compared to the shock and intense inner turmoil of these two, Mo Tang remained completely calm.
Upon seeing Feng Qing'er, he exclaimed in surprise, "Eh? Senior Sister, what are you doing here? Is there something you need to do?"
Feng Qing'er smiled wryly, rolled her eyes at the indifferent Mo Tang, and said, "Do you even need to ask me that? We came here specifically to find you, so why did you end up in this desolate place?"
Mo Tang raised an eyebrow, puzzled, "Find me? What do you want with me? Does Master have some instructions?"
Feng Qing'er shook her head, and was about to speak when the black-robed elder beside her stopped her, saying, "Let me explain..."
"Young friend, I am Huang Xuan, one of the elders of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan. My visit to you is naturally related to your identity."
However, before that, I have a few questions to ask you..."
Mo Tang's heart skipped a beat. It seemed that the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan had learned of Ying Yi's death. He wondered if this elder of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan had come to question him or had some other purpose.
Although he thought this, Mo Tang showed no outward abnormality and instead cupped his hands slightly, saying, "Elder Huang Xuan, please speak."
Seeing Mo Tang's composed expression, Huang Xuan nodded inwardly, then asked, "I want to ask you, before this, have you seen any other members of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan?"
Mo Tang frowned and shook his head, saying, "I haven't been in Zhongzhou long. Besides Elder Huang Xuan, the only clansman I've seen is my senior sister..."
Seeing Mo Tang's answer, Huang Xuan assumed he had misunderstood and continued to explain, "I'm referring to the period after you left the Wind and Thunder Pavilion."
Mo Tang was immediately surprised, saying, "After leaving the Wind and Thunder Pavilion? Did someone else come before Elder Huang Xuan? But why wasn't they with my senior sister? And during this time, besides traveling, I've stayed in the Flower Sect and haven't seen any clansmen."
Seeing Mo Tang's serious expression, Huang Xuan's brows furrowed deeply.
"Is that so?"
But what exactly happened to Ying Yi? The
soul jade slip he left in the clan was shattered, proving he was dead... Could it be that he encountered some opponent and met with misfortune on his way out?
Such a thing is not impossible...
Although the Heavenly Phoenix Clan is powerful and protective of its own, it cannot truly stop the greed of those who covet their clan.
Over the years, it's not uncommon for clansmen to be captured and killed while on business trips... After all, a Heavenly Phoenix Clan member's physical body alone is priceless, enough to tempt some to take risks.
However, Huang Xuan was unsure whether what the young man in front of him said was true or false...
Just as Huang Xuan hesitated, Feng Qing'er looked over curiously, "Flower Sect? Junior Brother, how did you get involved with the Flower Sect?"
Seeing Feng Qing'er's curious look, Mo Tang smiled and said, "Hehe, it's not just a connection... The current sect leader of the Flower Sect is one of my women!"
This was obviously more explosive for Feng Qing'er than Mo Tang becoming a Dou Zun!
The usually cold and aloof beauty suddenly lost all control of her expression, her cherry lips wide open, her eyes almost popping out of their sockets.
"The Flower Sect Master? Your woman? But I heard the Flower Sect Master is an old monster who has lived for hundreds of years..."
Upon hearing this, not only Mo Tang, but even Huang Xuan beside him stared wide-eyed...
Hundreds of years? An old monster? Are you implying me?
Huang Xuan, the Heavenly Demon Phoenix who had lived for nearly a thousand years, felt insulted.
As for Mo Tang... he was also nearly choked to death by Feng Qing'er's "old monster" comment... He seemed to vaguely see the wrinkled old face of the Flower Sect's Grand Elder before him...
Ugh...!
"What nonsense are you talking about! I'm talking about the new Sect Master, who just took office, a stunningly beautiful woman!"
Mo Tang roared in exasperation.
Feng Qing'er merely pursed her lips and said softly, "As expected of a scumbag. That Little Fairy Doctor has only been gone a few days, and you've already found a new love..."
"And they're all women of such talent and beauty, are they all blind..."
Of course, she didn't finish the last sentence, otherwise Feng Qing'er suspected this guy would explode.
Besides, she couldn't beat him right now...
