Return to Ming Cult

Before Mo Cheng had met Zhao Yuwei, his opinion of her was the same as that of most people in the Sect.

But after meeting Zhao Yuwei in person today, in his view, she was not as terrible as other Disciples had described.

At the very least, Mo Cheng could truly see that Xiao Feng did not really want to return to the Ming Cult, even now, when the Ming Cult had encountered such a calamity.

Even after knowing that the Poison Emperor was also seriously injured, Xiao Feng was still hesitant.

It was evident to what extent their Saintess's past actions had made Xiao Feng want to avoid her.

However, under these circumstances, if Zhao Yuwei really did not want Xiao Feng to have any further connection with their Saintess...

...she could have easily persuaded Xiao Feng not to return to the Ming Cult.

In any case, they had already left the Ming Cult, and the Ming Cult's affairs had nothing to do with them.

Unexpectedly, it was Zhao Yuwei who spoke up to help, which was what decided Xiao Feng's willingness to return to the Ming Cult to see the situation.

Xiao Feng's obedience to Zhao Yuwei's every word startled Mo Cheng.

Comparing their own Saintess's temper and disposition with this Miss Zhao...

Mo Cheng thought that he probably understood why their son-in-law was so devoted to this Senior Sister of his, unable to forget her.

The son-in-law could even leave the Ming Cult directly for the sake of his Senior Sister, giving up his status as the Ming Cult's son-in-law.

Their Saintess was indeed a bit spoiled and too overbearing.

However, this was also the pride belonging to their Ming Cult Saintess; perhaps the Saintess and the son-in-law were truly not a good match.

"When the Ming Cult was in danger, this Miss Zhao did not urge the son-in-law to sever ties with the Ming Cult. Perhaps most of the Disciples in the Ming Cult have too great a misunderstanding of Miss Zhao."

Mo Cheng shook his head with great emotion.

But Mo Cheng did not forget to send this good news back.

Early the next morning, after having breakfast, Xiao Feng and Zhao Yuwei went directly with Mo Cheng towards the outskirts of the city.

When they arrived outside the city, they discovered that on their necessary path, there were already people waiting there.

The Ming Cult had a massive influence, and its personnel were widely distributed; even here in the Yao Race's territory, there were many hands.

Xiao Feng had heard Mo Cheng mention yesterday that this return trip was also to recall all the personnel from the Monster Realm.

It was just that Xiao Feng had originally thought that since the Ming Cult had foundations here in the Monster Realm, even if they were to be recalled, they would not take all the experts back.

Now, after Xiao Feng took a rough look, the personnel gathered here were likely covering most of the Ming Cult experts in the Monster Realm.

"Elder Mo Cheng, are so many people all returning together?" A flash of doubt crossed Xiao Feng's eyes.

After hearing Xiao Feng's voice, Mo Cheng walked to Xiao Feng's side and explained: "The situation this time is truly very severe. Numerous Schools are participating in a conspiracy to besiege the Ming Cult. Lord Poison Emperor has given the order to bring back all personnel with cultivation above the Soul Transformation Realm, otherwise, I fear the Ming Cult really won't be able to hold on this time."

Once Mo Cheng said this, it gave Xiao Feng a deeper understanding of the Ming Cult's current crisis.

Recalling all those at the Soul Transformation Realm just to barely survive this crisis—how big was the Ming Cult's trouble exactly?

What Xiao Feng understood even less was, since the Ming Cult's trouble had already reached the point of total destruction, why had the Cult Leader not yet come out of seclusion?

"The Cult Leader has profound cultivation, and I have already obtained the item he wanted for him; the situation within his body should have been able to calm down. Yet now that the Ming Cult is in such dire straits, he is still in seclusion? Could it be that there are other secrets hidden within this?"

Xiao Feng could guess that Mo Cheng must have concealed some matters.

But regarding the current situation of the Poison Emperor, Mo Cheng should not have concealed anything.

That was why Xiao Feng decided to follow Mo Cheng back to the Ming Cult to take a look.

But the level of crisis this time still exceeded Xiao Feng's imagination.

There must be other things happening within this matter.

Mo Cheng not speaking might be because he didn't know, or perhaps he had no way to tell Xiao Feng. It seemed he would have to go back and ask his foster father himself.

"We will return immediately," Xiao Feng said.

Xiao Feng's words did attract the attention of some Ming Cult experts.

They had stayed here in the Monster Realm for a long time and only had contact with the Ming Cult headquarters via voice transmission.

And regarding Xiao Feng's identity, what they knew more about was not that he was the foster son of their Ming Cult's Poison Emperor.

It was that he was a human protected by a great demon in the Monster Realm named Wuchi.

But now, these experts of the Ming Cult were also worried about what kind of changes had occurred within the Ming Cult.

They did not ask or inquire too much about Xiao Feng's situation, but instead hurried back to the Ming Cult.

Because time was tight, Xiao Feng and the others did not stop at all along the way.

Originally, even hurrying as much as possible, and even though the quality of the flying ship they were riding was very good, it would take at least a month to return.

But because the situation was urgent, this time they insisted on traveling at a speed that would scrap the flying ship, and they successfully returned to the Ming Cult in just fifteen days.

When Xiao Feng and the others got off the flying ship, even Xiao Feng, whose Realm was already one of the strongest in the world, felt a bit dizzy.

"I probably won't want to ride a flying ship for a long time." Xiao Feng had almost made himself vomit from the ride.

When they arrived at the foot of the Ming Cult's mountain, Xiao Feng saw the sea of people surrounding the place.

It was indeed just as Mo Cheng had described; the Ming Cult was surrounded by numerous righteous Sects, making it impassable.

It was very obvious that in this great battle, the Ming Cult was clearly at a disadvantage.

Fortunately, this was not the only road up the mountain; there were other places to enter the Ming Cult.

The atmosphere on the mountain where the Ming Cult was located was also extremely tense.

Xiao Feng and the others took a small path and arrived at the outer side of the Ming Cult.

After Mo Cheng presented his identity, they were not stopped outside the mountain gate but successfully entered the Ming Cult.

However, when Xiao Feng and Zhao Yuwei took off the masks they were wearing, the crowd saw Xiao Feng's face, and their expressions immediately became awkward.

In the past, when Xiao Feng walked within the Ming Cult, everyone had to salute him.

At that time, Xiao Feng was still the infinitely glorious Ming Cult son-in-law.

But now, who in the entire Ming Cult did not know about the matter between Xiao Feng and Su Xueqing?

It was likely that there was no possibility for the two of them to rekindle their relationship anymore.

Furthermore, everyone's subtle gazes fell upon Zhao Yuwei, who was beside Xiao Feng.

They all knew because of whom Xiao Feng had broken ties with Su Xueqing.

Unexpectedly, now that Xiao Feng had returned to the Ming Cult, he had actually brought that woman into the hall.

Xiao Feng and Zhao Yuwei naturally noticed the looks the people around them were giving them.

However, neither of them were people who cared about such trivial details; Xiao Feng's biggest concern upon returning to the Ming Cult was still the current situation of the Poison Emperor.
