Lei Zun, the Pavilion Master of Fenglei Pavilion, issued the Fenglei Decree, inviting the other three Pavilion Masters of the Four Directions Pavilion to gather in Lingshi City in the Northern Region of Zhongzhou.
The reason for choosing such an obscure little city instead of the Fenglei Mountains was to prevent some cunning individuals from attending...
Even so, Huangquan Zun of Huangquan Pavilion simply made up an excuse and showed no intention of participating.
Mo Tang didn't take this to heart.
Huangquan Pavilion was just a small addition to the gathering.

Lingshi City was indeed small, originally controlled by a third-rate family, whose strongest member was only a one-star Dou Zong expert.
However, the reason they were chosen was because a disciple from this family had joined the West Pavilion of Fenglei Pavilion, and was even a personal disciple accepted by an elder of the West Pavilion.
This status is far higher than that of Hong Chen of the Hong family in Tianbei City in the original story.
Therefore, even though Lingshi City is not very strong, in this small area of the Central Plains Northern Region, really no one dares to provoke them.
On this day, the tranquility of Lingshi City was broken. Countless well-informed experts gathered in Lingshi City, wanting to see what the Fenglei Pavilion was up to by convening the Four Pavilions Conference at this time...
"Patriarch, Hong Tianxiao, the patriarch of the Hong family in Tianbei City, has come to visit, accompanied by Young Master Hong Chen, a disciple of the Fenglei Pavilion..."
A guard rushed into Ling Yu, the patriarch of the Ling family, and said quickly.
Ling Yu, the patriarch of the Ling family, is a middle-aged man who looks refined and gentle, giving people a sense of elegance and affability at first glance.
"Tianbei City? The Hong family?"
Ling Yu put down the book in his hand, raised an eyebrow, and thought to himself.
"Oh, it's the Hong family, the one whose disciple has become an inner disciple of the Fenglei Pavilion's North Pavilion, right?"
If the Ling family were just an ordinary family, they would definitely be very polite to a powerhouse like Hong Tianxiao, let alone the fact that he has a disciple who is an inner disciple of the Fenglei Pavilion.
But for Ling Yu now, he was not worried at all.
Because his son was even more extraordinary than Hong Chen, and was the personal disciple of the Second Elder of the West Pavilion of the Fenglei Pavilion, which gave Ling Yu confidence in facing anyone.
"Take him to the reception room, I'll go there later..."
...
...
At the same time, on a huge seven-colored spirit crane, Mo Tang and Feng Qing'er sat cross-legged.
"Senior Sister broke through to the second-star Dou Zong realm? Congratulations!"
Hearing Mo Tang's insincere words, Feng Qing'er rolled her eyes at him.
"I broke through three days ago, and you're only congratulating me now... Can't you put some effort into it!"
Mo Tang smiled awkwardly, "I had some business to attend to a few days ago..."
"Tch! Don't think I don't know, you went to the Flower Sect, didn't you?"
As she said this, Feng Qing'er felt a pang of jealousy for some reason.
"Ahem... well, it's important business. I went there for the sake of good relations between the Four Directions Pavilion and the Flower Sect, it's important business!"
Feng Qing'er immediately gave him a disdainful look.
"Finding women is just finding women, what kind of important business is that!"
Of course, she couldn't say that out loud, because it didn't fit her character.
In fact, Mo Tang wasn't lying this time...
Although he spent most of his time with Yun Yun during his stay at the Flower Sect, he also took the time to meet with the two Supreme Elders of the Flower Sect.
"Qinghua Fairy"...
This isn't a title for one person, but for two... Qing Fairy and Hua Fairy.
Although both of them are ancient monsters from the previous era, like Yao Lao, Mo Tang was still slightly amazed when he first saw them.
Both were beautiful young women dressed in palace attire, looking to be only in their thirties, showing no signs of having lived for hundreds of years.
"One is a mid-level half-saint, and the other is a high-level half-saint... The hidden strength of the Flower Sect is indeed not weak."
This was Mo Tang's first thought.
However, these two stunning women were not so easy to talk to, and they immediately gave him a hard time...
"Boy, what is your identity this time? The Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan? Or... the Wind and Thunder Pavilion?"
A beautiful woman in a green palace dress spoke first.
From Yun Yun's words, Mo Tang also knew that this woman in the green palace dress was Qing Fairy, and the one who truly made the decisions in the Qinghua Fairy duo.
Mo Tang, naturally unfazed by the question, smiled slightly and said, "What does it matter?"
Qing Xianzi immediately replied, "Of course it matters!"
"If it were the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, then my Flower Sect would naturally welcome what you've said with open arms; but if it's the Wind and Thunder Pavilion, I'm afraid you're not qualified..."
Even now that the Wind and Thunder Pavilion has annexed the Ice River Valley, in terms of strength, it's still a far cry from the Flower Sect.
Mo Tang shook his head and smiled, rising to his feet. Before the two fairies, he declared loudly, "The Wind and Thunder Pavilion is me, the Four Directions Pavilion is me, and the Heavenly Phoenix is still me! Therefore, I only represent myself!"
Upon hearing this, both Qing Hua and Qing Xianzi's eyes lit up. Looking at this confident...or rather, arrogant young man before them, a glint of light flashed in their eyes.
"Hehe, what you're saying is probably just boasting..." Hua Xianzi, who had been silent until now, suddenly giggled and said.
Mo Tang shook his head and laughed, "I never brag..."
"Perhaps you two seniors are unaware, but I am not only one of the candidates for the next patriarch of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, but the patriarch also promised me the right to mobilize half of the clan's power. Does this qualify me to stand on equal footing with the Flower Sect?"
Mo Tang's words greatly surprised the two fairies.
"Is this true?" Fairy Qing spoke first.
How terrifying was the Heavenly Phoenix Clan? They, the older generation, had naturally witnessed it.
Although they had never met the mysterious patriarch of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, they had personally witnessed the power of the Three Heavenly Phoenixes.
They were truly Dou Sheng level experts... Even at the peak of the Flower Sect, they were far from reaching the level of the Three Heavenly Phoenixes.
After all, there weren't many forces like Burning Flame Valley that had existed since ancient times yet maintained a low profile until now.
And the Fire Cloud Ancestor within Burning Flame Valley was definitely an anomaly among anomalies!
Seeing Qing Xianzi's surprised expression, Mo Tang calmly said, "Of course it's true..."
"Then why did you go to such lengths to integrate the Four Directions Pavilion? Even if the Four Directions Pavilion were merged, so what? At most, it would only be slightly stronger than the Three Valleys, still far from the Two Sects!"
A top-tier power is judged by its foundation and its strong members. Even if you have many disciples, what good is it? Without a Saint, you're still only considered first-rate, not at the very top! I've been
quite busy today, and only had time to sit down and write after 8 PM, so there will only be two chapters at most today... I'll have lunch later and continue with the next chapter. Please wait.
