"I'll give you one chance."

Gu Chenfeng smiled faintly, "One is death, the other is to submit to the Feng Family. Choose one."

The Sect Leader of the Cloud Sword Sect and the four Elders were instantly dumbfounded.

They didn't want to die, but they also didn't want to submit to the Feng Family.

The Cloud Sword Sect is a dominant power, with five Immortal Emperors holding the fort. Submitting to the Feng Family would be a joke.

Feng Li and the Elders were also stunned.

They simply couldn't believe that Gu Chenfeng was forcing the Cloud Sword Sect to submit to the Feng Family!

Seeing the Cloud Sword Sect Leader and the others in silence, Gu Chenfeng sneered, "Think carefully before you answer."

The Ice Phoenix's charming face stiffened, and she said icily, "You only have one chance."

The Cloud Sword Sect Leader trembled all over, and with a face full of horror, he said, "Ancestor, the Cloud Sword Sect is willing to submit to the Feng Family!"

If they didn't submit, the Cloud Sword Sect would disappear from the Immortal Realm today.

If they submitted, they could all survive. Besides, submitting to the Feng Family was akin to submitting to Gu Chenfeng.

Although the Cloud Sword Sect Leader and the others didn't know Gu Chenfeng's origins, even the Grand Commander of the Celestial Shadow Immortal Palace had to be respectful. Gu Chenfeng's background must be terrifyingly formidable.

Gu Chenfeng smiled slightly, "Very well, from today on, the Cloud Sword Sect will fully support the Feng Family, follow all Feng Family orders, and harbor no double thoughts. All disciples of the Cloud Sword Sect must obey the Feng Family."

"If any defy this, even if it's a disciple not following orders, I will personally destroy your Cloud Sword Sect. Do not doubt my words."

"Yes, yes, yes!" The Cloud Sword Sect Leader nodded repeatedly, as if granted an amnesty, "Thank you, Ancestor! We will definitely assist the Feng Family with all our might and follow all Feng Family orders!"

Gu Chenfeng waved his hand, "You may leave now."

The Sect Leader of the Cloud Sword Sect and the four Elders hurriedly withdrew, and after leaving the Feng Family, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sect Leader, what do we do now?" one Elder asked in terror, with countless unwilling thoughts in his heart.

The Cloud Sword Sect Leader sighed helplessly, "At this point, we can only do as the Ancestor said and preserve the Cloud Sword Sect for now."

"What the Sect Leader says is true." The Grand Elder nodded, "This Ancestor certainly has a terrifying background, otherwise the Shangguan Commander would not be so respectful. Submitting may not be a bad thing." 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

The Second Elder said gravely, "This person can oppress us with mere presence, his cultivation must be above ours; perhaps he has already stepped into the Immortal Venerable Realm."

"I've never seen such a young Immortal Venerable, much less one addressed as an Ancestor—his background must be extraordinary."

"But what about the Nine Yang Immortal Palace? How do we explain to them?" the Third Elder asked worriedly, clearly afraid of retaliation from the Nine Yang Immortal Palace.

"Ignore them." The Cloud Sword Sect Leader gritted his teeth, speaking fiercely, "Since the Cloud Sword Sect has already submitted, whether it's the Ancestor or the Celestial Shadow Immortal Palace, they shouldn't ignore our plight. It's not that easy for the Nine Yang Immortal Palace to destroy us."

...

The Feng Family hall.

After the people from the Cloud Sword Sect left.

Feng Li anxiously asked, "Ancestor, the Feng Family is already in decline and severely weakened. Is it really a good idea to manage the Cloud Sword Sect? Besides, they may not truly submit."

The Grand Elder also expressed concern, "The Cloud Sword Sect has the Nine Yang Immortal Palace backing them, they won't wholeheartedly submit, and it's likely they'll act against our Feng Family again soon."

"The Patriarch need not worry." Gu Chenfeng said with a faint smile, "Should the Cloud Sword Sect harbor any double thoughts, or should any ignorant disciples defy orders from the Feng Family, the existence of the Cloud Sword Sect will no longer be necessary."

"The opportunity has been given to them, whether they cherish it or not is their choice. As long as the Sect Leader of the Cloud Sword Sect isn't foolish, he'll strictly command his disciples."

Upon hearing this.

Feng Li and the Elders finally felt reassured.

Gu Chenfeng then glanced over to Feng Yueji and smiled, "Yueji, this time, you can safely return to the Immortal Mansion for cultivation."

"Mm!" Feng Yueji nodded happily, bowing in gratitude, "Thank you, Ancestor, for rescuing the Feng Family from danger! Yueji will always remember this."

Turning his gaze to the Shangguan Commander, Gu Chenfeng said with a faint smile, "If any other forces make a move, eliminate them directly."

"As you command!" The Shangguan Commander responded respectfully.

The Ice Phoenix, standing by, asked, "Master, are we not dealing with the Nine Yang Immortal Palace?"

"No rush, let's return first." Gu Chenfeng replied with a faint smile, "It's not too late to destroy them when they make their move. Patriarch of the Feng Family, we bid you farewell."

Feng Yueji laughed happily, "Grandfather, father, I'm going back with the Ancestor."

"Good!" Feng Li nodded in delight.

The Feng Family had the Shangguan Commander secretly protecting it, so Feng Yueji had no worries.

With a wave of Gu Chenfeng's hand, a Black Spirit Ship appeared out of thin air above the Feng Family.

"Let's go now." Gu Chenfeng said with a faint smile, taking the lead and flashing onto the spirit ship.

The Ice Phoenix and Feng Yueji followed closely behind.

After the spirit ship left Void Ghost City.

In the void above Void Ghost City, a figure suddenly appeared.

The newcomer was none other than Xu Wu.

Watching the departing Black Spirit Ship, Xu Wu sneered slightly, "The Nine Yang Immortal Palace is quite strong, they could be useful."

The Black Spirit Ship traveling away seemed to make Gu Chenfeng sense something, prompting him to look back.

But by then, Xu Wu's figure had already vanished.

"Master, what is it?" the Ice Phoenix asked, her beautiful eyes following the direction of Gu Chenfeng's gaze.

"It's nothing." Gu Chenfeng shook his head slightly, "I thought I sensed something, but I can't say for sure, probably just a false alarm."

...

Two hours later.

News of the strong forces of the three major families being slain had already spread.

The Nine Yang Immortal Palace naturally quickly learned of this news.

In the great hall of the Nine Yang Immortal Palace, the atmosphere was heavy and oppressive.

"The three major families were actually annihilated." The Palace Master of the Nine Yang Palace slammed his seat in anger, speaking fiercely, "How does the Feng Family have such strong support? They truly don't regard my Nine Yang Immortal Palace at all!"

The Third Elder stepped forward and said, "Palace Master, rumors say that the annihilation of the three families was aided by a mysterious Ancestor and a female with blood-colored flames."

"Their strength is exceptionally powerful, especially that mysterious Ancestor, who effortlessly slaughtered the three Patriarchs. His strength must have reached the Immortal Emperor Realm."

"A mysterious Ancestor? Blood-colored flames?" The Palace Master of the Nine Yang Palace frowned deeply, unable to guess who they were.

The Grand Elder frowned and asked, "Do we know their origins?"

"Not clear at the moment." The Third Elder shook his head slightly, "But with their backing, the Feng Family will be difficult to deal with."

The Grand Elder asked, "Palace Master, should we send someone to investigate their origins?"

"It's not necessary!" The Palace Master's eyes narrowed fiercely, "No matter who it is, if they dare to oppose my Nine Yang Immortal Palace, they will have no good end! Since they dare to meddle, let them pay the price in blood!"

"Send the order! Immediately deploy the Celestial Annihilation Sect, Black Wind Valley, and Ghost Pavilion to deal with the Feng Family. I want to see how long they can hold out!"

"Yes!" The Elder took the order and left.
