84: Heavenly Grade Refiner

Three days later.

Night.

Ling Feng and the others appeared directly in the Void Realm not far from Qingyun Town.

Looking at the outline of Qingyun Town in the distance, Ling Feng and the others all wore expressions of joy; after three days of rough travel, they had finally returned.

At this moment, Ling Tian and Ling Ke flew to Ling Feng, cupped their fists, and respectfully said,

“Family Head, we two will stop here.”

“Mm, mm, you may go. As for your rewards, I will have Ling Di deliver them to you then.”

Upon hearing this, Ling Feng looked at Ling Tian and Ling Ke, nodded, and said with a smile.

“Thank you, Family Head.”

Seeing this, Ling Tian and Ling Ke instantly flashed away, speeding directly into the distance.

Watching Ling Tian and Ling Ke’s retreating figures, Ling Feng waved his hand and instructed Ling Di and the others.

“Let’s go too.”

Subsequently, the mounts beneath them let out long cries, vigorously flapped their wings, and instantly flew a great distance. The speed of the Purple Hell Dragonhawk and other mounts was incredibly fast.

Not long after, Ling Feng and the others appeared directly above the Ling Family Residence.

Immediately, Ling Feng ordered hisSnow Eagle mount to hover in the Void Realm. Seeing this, Ling Di and the others also controlled their Purple Hell Dragonhawks to stop.

Looking at the extremely familiar Ling Family Residence, Ling Feng slowly said to Ling Di,

“Ling Di, take Ling Yuan and Ling Shi to bring these mounts back and settle them. Let them rest well, and then come find me tomorrow.”

“Additionally, I presume our return has already alerted the Grand Elder, the Second Elder, and the Grand Elder. I’ll trouble you to make a trip for me and inform them not to come looking for me tonight. They should come to the Family Meeting Hall for discussions tomorrow at noon.”

“Yes, Family Head.”

Upon hearing this, the two immediately controlled their Purple Hell Dragonhawks and headed directly towards the mount stable within the Family Residence.

Afterward, Ling Feng directly controlled his Snow Eagle to take Ling Xuanji back to his own courtyard.

“Cousin Xuanji, you should also go back and rest early today. These past few days of long-distance travel are still a bit strenuous for your current cultivation.”

“Yes, Family Head, I will head back then.”

Upon hearing this, Ling Feng nodded with a smile.

Watching Ling Xuanji’s retreating figure, he then instructed the maids in the courtyard to prepare hot water for him, intending to take a hot bath and have a good night's sleep... The next day.

Noon.

Ling Feng slowly awoke from his slumber.

Lying on the bed, his eyes slightly narrowed, seeing that the sky outside was already bright, Ling Feng couldn't help but lazily stretch, then slowly got up from the bed. He couldn't help but murmur,

“That sleep was truly comfortable.”

Afterward, Ling Feng bathed, changed, and tidied himself up, then slowly walked out of his room and into the courtyard.

Seeing that Ling Di had not yet arrived, Ling Feng seemed to have thought of something, and immediately went to the pavilion in the courtyard and sat down.

He opened the System backpack in his mind and instructed the System,

“System, use the Heaven-Grade Artifact Refiner Summoning Card.”

“Understood, Host.”

“Summoning in progress, Host, please wait…”

As the System’s voice faded, a middle-aged man dressed in a grey robe, looking very refined, appeared before Ling Feng.

The middle-aged man knelt on one knee directly before Ling Feng, cupping his fists in an extremely respectful salute.

“Your subordinate, Ling Tie, greets the Family Head.”

“Rise.”

“Thank you, Family Head.”

Upon sensing Ling Tie’s cultivation, Ling Feng was surprised; he was not only a Heaven-Grade Weapon Refiner but also possessed the Early Stage King Warrior Realm cultivation.

Immediately, Ling Feng spoke again to Ling Tie, giving further instructions.

“Ling Tie, abolish the Family’s original Artifact Refining workshop and re-establish the Weapon Refining Hall. You will temporarily serve as the Deputy Hall Master of the Weapon Refining Hall, managing it and providing weapon support for the Family.”

“Yes, Family Head.”

Upon hearing this, Ling Tie immediately cupped his fists and respectfully responded.

No sooner had he finished speaking than a loud voice came from outside the courtyard.

“Reporting to the Family Head, Ling Di requests an audience.”

Upon hearing this, Ling Feng immediately responded,

“Come in.”

Soon, Ling Di walked in, quickly approached Ling Feng, and respectfully saluted.

“Your subordinate greets the Family Head.”

“Rise.”

Afterward, Ling Feng looked at Ling Di and asked,

“Ling Di, have the Grand Elder, the Second Elder, and the Grand Elder all been notified?”

“Reporting to the Family Head, they have all been notified.”

“In that case, let’s go. Don’t keep them waiting too long.”

Upon hearing this, Ling Feng nodded with a smile, then quickly strode out of the courtyard.

At the same time.

Ling Family Meeting Hall.

Ling Wuji, Ling Buyi, and Ling Zhan were currently in the hall, drinking tea and chatting with each other.

“Big Brother, do you know why Feng’er called us together this time?”

Ling Zhan, who was always fiery and impatient, was the first to ask Ling Wuji.

“That brat Feng’er just went out, and when he came back, I didn’t even see his face. How would I know why he called us together?”

Upon hearing this, Ling Wuji shook his head helplessly.

Just as the few of them were chatting idly in the hall, a loud announcement came from outside the hall.

“The Family Head arrives!”

Upon hearing this, Ling Wuji, Ling Buyi, and the others all turned their gazes towards the entrance.

As the announcement faded, Ling Feng and Ling Di appeared directly in the hall.

Looking at Ling Wuji, Ling Buyi, Ling Zhan, and the others who had been waiting for a long time in the hall, Ling Feng quickly walked into the hall, cupped his hands, and said with a smile to everyone,

“Father, Second Uncle, Third Uncle, I’ve made you wait.”

Ling Buyi and Ling Zhan, seeing Ling Feng’s arrival, couldn’t help but stand up and respectfully salute.

“We greet the Family Head.”

Seeing this, Ling Feng couldn’t help but say with a smile,

“Second Uncle, Third Uncle, there are no outsiders here, there’s no need for such formality.”

Upon hearing this, Ling Buyi and Ling Zhan merely smiled and said nothing more.

“Feng’er, I originally thought you would be gone for some time, but I didn’t expect you to return so quickly. How did things go on this trip?”

Ling Wuji, who was beside them, was the first to ask.

Upon hearing this, Ling Feng did not immediately reply, but instead said with a smile to the others,

“Please all sit. Let’s sit down and talk slowly.”

“Right, right, right, everyone sit.”

Upon hearing this, Ling Buyi and Ling Zhan and the others all agreed.

After everyone was seated, Ling Feng slowly began to recount,

“It’s like this…”
