The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal

Watching Long Qitian being battered, Wu De and Li Hanshao both gulped nervously, their faces turning pale as if frostbitten eggplants, not daring to utter a single word.

“I will take you back to Misty Peak until you repent,” Long Tianxing said as he picked up Long Qitian, used the “Light Body Technique”, and left, only leaving a crowd with shocked faces behind.

“Truly worthy of being a disciple from Misty Sect, such ferocity!”

“He even dared to strike the disciple of Thousand Faces Demon Lord. It looks like a battle between Thousand Faces Demon Lord and Sect Master Ye of the Misty Sect is inevitable now.”

People in the Liuxiang Pavilion were discussing animatedly.

Upon hearing the crowd’s words, Wu De and Li Hanshao exchanged a glance, their faces flashing with ecstasy, and said in unison, “Yes! Let’s use this opportunity to have the Sect Master take action, hurry, we must rush back to report the news!”

The two of them struggled with great effort to free themselves from the light ropes, and then they bolted towards the Nanlu Mountain Range like unleashed puppies, tongues lolling, running wildly.

The people in the Liuxiang Pavilion witnessed this spectacle, their expressions changing dramatically.

“Those two cultivators are going to summon the Thousand Faces Demon Lord!”

“Quick, spread the word!”

The news began to spread throughout Whitefloat City.

“Are you saying that Thousand Faces Demon Lord has founded the Nanlu Demon Sect, and today, there was a dispute between a disciple of the Nanlu Demon Sect and a disciple of the Misty Sect?”

“Yes! The disciple of the Nanlu Demon Sect has already returned to the Nanlu Mountain Range and is asking for Thousand Faces Demon Lord to take action. It’s bound to be a fight against Sect Master Ye of the Misty Sect!”

“What? Thousand Faces Demon Lord is going to challenge Sect Master Ye one-on-one?”

“Yes, it looks like the battle is about to begin soon!”

The message kept spreading and slowly transformed into various strange versions. In the end, some even said that the Thousand Faces Demon Lord had deliberately let his disciple be captured by Long Tianxing to create an excuse to challenge Ye Feng.

Some people even claimed that Thousand Faces Demon Lord planned to elevate the Nanlu Demon Sect to a Star-level Sect, starting with devouring the Misty Sect.

Atop Misty Peak.

Ye Feng looked down at Long Qitian lying on the ground, who had been beaten to a pulp, unable to speak clearly.

“Who told you to beat him until he submits?”

Ye Feng’s eyelid twitched uncontrollably as he turned to ask Long Tianxing.

With a serious face, Long Tianxing responded, “Senior Sister Mo Ying once mentioned that for those who refuse to repent, the solution is to beat them until they submit.”

Long Qitian lying on the ground wanted to cry, desperately wondering why Mo Ying had said such a thing, leading to him being beaten so miserably.

In the Fuyun Gloomy Forest.

Suddenly, Mo Ying sneezed, turning to look back at the fog-enshrouded Misty Peak with a slight frown.

After a moment, she continued using the “Light Body Technique” to navigate through the dense jungle, reaching the Fenhuo River at the northern boundary of the Fuyun Gloomy Forest.

“Crossing the Fenhuo River will lead to the Yunxiao Great Forest on the northern shore, where there should be High-rank Demon Soldier Level Demon Beasts.”

Mo Ying murmured to herself.

Since leaving Misty Peak, she slowed her pace. Along the way, she was attacked by numerous demonic beasts, all of which she cut down with a single sword strike; regrettably, they were only Lower Rank Demon Soldiers, not meeting the requirements of her mission.

Thus, Mo Ying set her sights on the more vast and more dangerous Yunxiao Great Forest.

Ye Feng was unaware of Mo Ying’s progress or where Huo Yunjie had gone after descending the mountain.

At that moment, Ye Feng stood atop the peak, looking down at Long Qitian lying on the ground and wailing, he shook his head and said, “A beating is only a superficial submission; deep down he’s still defiant. It’s useless.”

Upon hearing this, Long Tianxing’s face was full of worry, “Sect Master, doesn’t that mean my mission will not be completed?”

“Don’t worry, this is just the beginning, there is plenty of time,” Ye Feng waved his hand and lay down again.

“Cousin, do you really have no intention of repenting?” Long Tianxing squatted down, patted Long Qitian on the head, and sighed.

“Repent my ass!” Long Qitian cursed inwardly, but outwardly he still feigned foaming at the mouth, trying to sneak away.

Faced with Long Qitian’s unrepentant nature, Long Tianxing was at a loss.

At this moment, Shi Lei came running over excitedly, saying, “Sect Master, I got it, as the eldest disciple of the sect, I should proactively share your worries, and as the sect expands, many things need to be arranged, such as building more housing and facilities.”

Before the sound of his voice had faded, Ye Feng saw through the system panel that Shi Lei’s mission progress had improved.

This meant Shi Lei’s intention was correct.

“Exactly, that’s the way to do it!” Ye Feng praised, handing over a hundred lower-grade spirit stones to Shi Lei, “Take these spirit stones and use them to develop the sect’s facilities.”

“Got it!” Shi Lei immediately went down the mountain.

Half a column of incense later.

Shi Lei entered the Jia Residence and met with Master Liu, talking about Misty Sect’s plans to engage in major construction work and build more pavilions and halls.

“After your sect becomes a high ranked sect, expanding is indeed necessary, considering the disciples will surely increase in the future, but, I have heard that the Nanlu Demon Sect Master, the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch, will challenge Sect Master Ye tomorrow. How can Shi Lei the Immortal Master still be in the mood for this?” said Master Liu with a serious face.

At these words, Shi Lei stood frozen.

“Immortal Master Shi Lei wouldn’t be unaware of this matter, would he?” Master Li looked at the uncertainty on Shi Lei’s face and quickly asked.

“I really didn’t know!” Shi Lei was a bit anxious, “Master Li, what on earth is going on?”

“Just listen to me explain slowly…” Master Li immediately told the most widely-spread version of the story in the city.

On hearing that the Thousand Faces Demon Monarch deliberately allowed Long Qitian to be captured and used it as a reason to challenge Ye Feng, Shi Lei was greatly shocked and hurried back to Misty Peak to report.

Nanlu Mountain Range.

“What? The Sect Master of Misty Sect, Ye Feng, ordered the capture of Long Qitian and even dares to demand that this Demon Lord come and pay for his release, how preposterous!”

The Shape-shifting Beast glared at Wu De and Li Hanshao, who were kneeling on the ground, pulling at his goatee in anger, then abruptly swept his sleeve and flew towards Misty Peak.

On the way, the Shape-shifting Beast made no attempt to hide his powerful aura, which alarmed the likes of Lu Shanyue and the Deputy City Lord of Whitefloat City, along with others from the Element Gathering Realm.

“The Thousand Faces Demon Monarch is heading to Misty Sect with tumultuous momentum. To prevent any accidents, we must rush to support him immediately,” Lu Shanyue took the lead in leaving.

Following him, the Deputy City Lord, the Sect Leaders of the three high-ranked sects, and various other Sect Leaders set out, all heading for Misty Peak.

Meanwhile, at Misty Sect.

Ye Feng, looking at Long Zhenchuan standing before him, said in confusion, “Patriarch Long, are you saying you will take Long Qitian back home and discipline him personally, preventing him from joining the Nanlu Demon Sect?”

“Exactly!” Long Zhenchuan nodded, “Moreover, please rest assured Sect Master Ye, I will definitely ensure my son is well-behaved.”

“But what is the situation with the Nanlu Demon Sect…” Ye Feng scratched his head, filled with confusion.

Not long after Shi Lei left the mountain, Long Zhenchuan came to visit, claiming he would take Long Qitian home for discipline, and he would surely sever Long Qitian’s connections with the Nanlu Demon Sect. He also requested that Ye Feng not harbor any resentment.

Listening to these inexplicable words, Ye Feng felt bewildered.

“Misty Sect, you are simply too outrageous!”

A piercing voice suddenly came through, like a thunderclap exploding midair, stirring up a violent storm.

Ignoring Long Zhenchuan and Long Qitian, Ye Feng leapt up into the sky to look at the middle-aged man with a goatee standing in the high air.
