123: Chapter 123 Luo Yunkai's Scheme Against Chu Feng

The City Lord's Mansion of Dan City was brightly lit, as a welcome banquet for Chen Xuanfeng was underway.

"Xuanfeng, this is the Foundation Stabilizing Pill that Grandfather spent several days in seclusion to refine. It has miraculous effects on stabilizing the Dantian after a Lifebound Magical Artifact is destroyed. Take it and see if it works."

"If it works, I'll give you this Pill Formula later. If those Sword Cultivators from the Heavenly Sword Sect want it, they'll have to treat you like a god!"

The City Lord of Dan City couldn't hide his pride, glancing sideways at Luo Yunkai, who sat to the left of the main seat.

See that? Can you provide the kind of help I can give my grandson?

Luo Yunkai smiled but said nothing.

Heh, the Heavenly Sword Sect is already treating his son like a god. Know why? Because the Immortal-Grade Cultivation Technique he provided resonated with the Immortal Sword's spirit!

The old man still wants to compete with him? He couldn't be bothered!

The City Lord of Dan City, however, mistook Luo Yunkai's silence for embarrassment, his pride evident in his expression.

Chen Xuanfeng stood up at the right moment to draw his grandfather's attention.

"Grandfather, you've worked hard!" Chen Xuanfeng's eyes welled with tears, appearing overcome with emotion.

The City Lord of Dan City waved his hand. "It wasn't hard. Grandfather is very happy to be able to help you."

As Chen Xuanfeng put away the Medicinal Pill, he deliberately glanced at Blazing Fire.

This big fool had no idea what this pill meant; he was happily feasting, looking completely satisfied.

Luo Yunkai shook his head and sent a voice transmission to Chen Xuanfeng, "Xuanfeng, how is it that this kid also has a deficient Divine Soul? The strangest thing is that despite the deficiency, he's still lively and has even cultivated to the Golden Core stage. Strange, truly strange."

He wanted to know how Blazing Fire did it; perhaps he could help Wealthy get healthy before obtaining the soul gathering grass.

Chen Xuanfeng replied, "Blazing Fire was also a victim of Possession."

Luo Yunkai paused.

Possession?

He thought of Chu Jiaojiao.

Luo Yunkai didn't even need to look at Blazing Fire, thinking to himself, *It couldn't be such a coincidence, could it?*

Chen Xuanfeng sighed. "Blazing Fire and Chu Feng are twins. Chu Feng was once possessed by a demonic cultivator, and Blazing Fire sensed it, splitting his Divine Soul to protect Chu Feng. That's how the demonic cultivator failed."

"However, Blazing Fire's Divine Soul became deficient because of it."

"As for why it doesn't affect Blazing Fire's cultivation, other than making him a bit dim-witted, it's likely because they are twins."

"Grandfather says the two brothers have reached a mysterious state of symbiosis. As long as one of them is healthy, the other will be influenced by the symbiosis and maintain a healthy state."

Luo Yunkai withdrew his gaze with regret.

Actually, he felt that Blazing Fire and Chu Jiaojiao shared some similarities.

But once Chen Xuanfeng mentioned they were twins, Luo Yunkai felt they weren't alike after all.

How could Chu Jiaojiao have a twin!

If she did, Kong Yishui wouldn't have needed to set his sights on Jin Fugui.

Luo Yunkai's eyes flickered. "Then doesn't this Blazing Fire also need soul gathering grass? Chu Feng is a demonic cultivator; perhaps you can cooperate."

Chen Xuanfeng frowned. "Chu Feng? He's only at the Foundation Establishment stage. Forget it; Brother Tian and the others will do."

Luo Yunkai simply didn't care because it wasn't his own son.

"What's wrong with Foundation Establishment? Tian'er and the others are only at Foundation Establishment too!"

"The Soul Stone Secret Realm is, after all, a Secret Realm controlled by demonic cultivators. They are more familiar with the environment inside."

"As long as Chu Feng can secure a spot to enter the Soul Stone Secret Realm, the demonic sects will surely tell him about the situation inside. You won't have to wander around the Secret Realm like headless flies. Why not do it?"

Chen Xuanfeng nodded. It was indeed a good idea; the only downside was that Chu Feng's life wouldn't be guaranteed.

Whether he could even survive long enough to get a spot was truly an unknown.

Chen Xuanfeng finally understood why Xiao Tian and the others said they couldn't let their father know that Chu Feng's mother was Chu Jiaojiao.

If he knew, even if Chu Jiaojiao treated Chu Feng poorly, with his father's ruthless Heart-Nature, he would definitely pull them up by the roots!

"I'll talk to Chu Feng later and see what he thinks," Chen Xuanfeng said, stalling.

Luo Yunkai waved his hand. "I'll go!"

"That kid—don't be fooled by his delicate, feminine, and peculiar appearance—he's definitely a deeply calculating person."

"If you go to feel him out, he'll surely make excuses and even use your friendship to get you to help find a soul gathering grass for that Blazing Fire."

Luo Yunkai wouldn't let his Good Eldest Son suffer such a loss!

Chen Xuanfeng lowered his eyes. To be honest, that was exactly what he was thinking—to pick a soul gathering grass for Blazing Fire while he was at it.

In fact, he hadn't planned on mentioning this to Chu Feng at all.

Seeing Chen Xuanfeng's guilty expression, Luo Yunkai guessed his thoughts and couldn't help but shake his head.

Being too righteous and loyal isn't a good thing in this Cultivation World.

He made up his mind to have a proper talk with Chu Feng!

As soon as the banquet ended, Luo Yunkai called out to Chu Feng via voice transmission.

Chen Xuanfeng noticed this and sighed; he really couldn't interfere with this.

Besides, he had a major hurdle of his own to overcome!

He dawdled as he went to find his grandfather.

The back garden of the City Lord's Mansion in Dan City.

Luo Yunkai stood with his hands behind his back, looking up at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle.

The bright moon hung high, and stars dotted the sky.

Tonight's moon was exceptionally bright.

Footsteps as light as nothing approached from a distance.

The footsteps sounded remarkably like a woman's stroll; just by the sound, one could imagine the graceful posture of the person approaching.

The footsteps stopped five paces behind Luo Yunkai.

"For what reason has the Senior summoned this Junior?" Chu Feng's voice was naturally soft and melodious—a result of sharing a body with Chu Jiaojiao for over a decade, an irreversible alteration.

Luo Yunkai got goosebumps all over, but fortunately, having seen all sorts of unconventional people in his past life, he quickly composed himself.

He turned around and stood face-to-face with Chu Feng.

The tall, red-clad Chu Feng stood under the moonlight. The dim light made his features appear indistinct, causing Luo Yunkai, who hadn't looked closely at Chu Feng before, to feel a bit dazed.

He felt a sense of familiarity...

"I've heard that Senior is quite the romantic and unrestrained man. What? Surely you aren't even going to let a man like this Junior off the hook now?" Chu Feng intentionally tried to disgust Luo Yunkai.

He found Luo Yunkai very unpleasant to look at.

Why?

Because he stole his brother!

He had thought Jin Fugui was his brother and had hoped for years to resolve the trouble in his body before going to reunite with him.

Who would have thought that once the trouble was resolved, his brother had become someone else's!

Had he not found his twin brother, Chu Feng's mood would not be as calm as it was now.

Disgusted, Luo Yunkai instantly dispelled that inexplicable sense of familiarity.

An illusion, it must be an illusion!

Luo Yunkai's expression turned cold. Chu Feng felt it and found it quite refreshing.

"Do you want to save Blazing Fire?" Luo Yunkai got straight to the point.

Chu Feng narrowed his eyes. "You have a way? Right, Jin Fugui's situation is similar to Blazing Fire's; Duobao Tower will surely find a way."

In an instant, he understood the gist of it. "What do you need me to do?"

Luo Yunkai nodded with satisfaction; he liked speaking with intelligent people.

"The Soul Stone Secret Realm—do you know of it?"

Chu Feng didn't know, but Chu Jiaojiao did.

In his Sea of Consciousness, he captured Chu Jiaojiao's memories. All the information she knew about the Soul Stone Secret Realm now belonged to Chu Feng.

"soul stones? Aren't those treasures that help a Nascent Soul Ancestor Breakthrough to Soul Transformation? Can they also be used to repair a Divine Soul?"

"Even if they can, I wouldn't be able to protect them, unless..."

"It's not soul stones, but soul gathering grass."

Chu Feng gave Luo Yunkai a deep look and nodded. "I understand. I will obtain the intelligence from within the Soul Stone Secret Realm!"

With that, he turned around, his blood-red robes fluttering.
