As Feng Lie walked towards the alchemy platform, a black-clothed old man beneath the Yunmeng Goddess statue suddenly stopped smiling.
Without making a sound, he approached the alchemy platform.
Feng Qingya’s attendant Mu Lao and Sikong Tingyun, exchanged a subconscious glance.
The power within their bodies began to stir.
“What is the Feng family planning to do?
“Second Elder Feng Li is in the sky, and now the Eldest Elder is heading towards the alchemy platform.”
“Are they not afraid of losing?”
“No, no, no. This time, the Feng family’s purpose in hosting this alchemy conference might be to thoroughly reveal themselves.”
“Yes, the Feng family’s alchemy conference has been quite sudden.”
“Until now, no one has been able to discern their true intentions.”“…”
As Feng Lie stepped onto the alchemy platform, everyone’s eyes were filled with curiosity once again.
After ascending the platform, Feng Lie’s gaze swept across all the cultivators on Wind Bell Island.
Then, with a calm expression, he spoke: “As promised earlier.
The top three winners of this alchemy conference will receive a special reward from my Feng family!
From now on, I declare that the top three alchemists can enter my Feng family’s treasure vault.
You can choose any medicinal material you like!”
As soon as he spoke, all the cultivators present were shocked once again.
“Directly entering the treasure vault to choose? When did the Feng family become so generous?”
“Good heavens, they’ve already taken out so many high-grade medicinal materials in this third round.
Who would have thought they still had such audacity?”
“Heh heh, I’m even more convinced now that the Feng family must have some ulterior motive.”
“…”
Many people from various factions surrounding the alchemy platform were now thinking differently.
They were all guessing and speculating.
As Feng Lie’s words fell, his gaze turned to Bai Xiu, Ye Zhiqiu, Xuening and Su Jingzhen on the alchemy platform.
“My young friends, please follow me back to the Feng family to receive your exclusive rewards in the treasure vault.”
Feng Lie’s actions were quite direct this time.
He conveyed his meaning and didn’t waste any words.
Upon hearing Feng Lie’s words, Ye Zhiqiu and Bai Xiu bowed to him in respect.
They didn’t have any objections to his proposal.
After all, they came from the Alchemist Association, and Ye Zhiqiu was even Vice President Ouyang’s disciple.
The Feng family, although powerful, wouldn’t dare to do anything to them.
However, Su Jingzhen and Xuening exchanged a somewhat bewildered glance.
Their eyes unconsciously drifted towards Feng Qingya below the platform.
They didn’t know much about the Feng family.
The only one they could trust was Feng Qingya.
Su Jingzhen and Xuening were well aware that their current display of potential was astonishing.
Many factions would likely be willing to fight over them.
In the cultivation world, it was not uncommon for talented individuals to be imprisoned and forced to serve a single faction.
If the Feng family really had no shame, they might imprison Su Jingzhen and Xuening the moment they entered the Feng family, turning them into true alchemy slaves.
It seemed that Sikong Tingyun had noticed Su Jingzhen and Xuening’s hesitation.
Sikong Tingyun suddenly stood up beside Feng Qingya: “Su Jingzhen, Xuening, this is your honor.
Everyone on Wind Bell Island can bear witness to this.
Since the Feng family has offered such a reward, you can go and claim it yourselves.
I, Sikong Tingyun, and the ten Golden Core protectors of Spirit Sound Valley behind me, will escort and protect you!”
As he spoke, Sikong Tingyun’s Nascent Soul mid-stage aura suddenly erupted.
The auras of the ten late Golden Core protectors behind him also rose simultaneously.
The atmosphere was extremely tense, as if they could enter battle mode at any moment.
Earlier, everyone on Wind Bell Island had been guessing when Spirit Sound Valley’s group would make their move.
But no one expected Sikong Tingyun to use this opportunity.
However, the various factions surrounding the alchemy platform also reacted quickly.
Not far away, a middle-aged beauty from Lingxiu Pavilion stood up.
Her aura was also at the Nascent Soul mid-stage level.
“As for this matter, I, Lingxiu Pavilion, am also willing to serve as a witness…
And, Xuening, the doors of Lingxiu Pavilion will always be open to you.”
“If the Feng family wants to target Master Su and Xuening because of this, my Flowing Wind Sword Sect will not stand idly by!
You two can go and claim your rewards; if you don’t come out within two hours of entering the Feng family, my Flowing Wind Sword Sect’s justice sword will hang over the Feng family’s head!”
A black-clothed old man from Flowing Wind Sword Sect spoke thus.
As his words fell, the three-foot-long swords on the backs of all Flowing Wind Sword Sect disciples present were unsheathed by three inches.
The atmosphere in the arena immediately became tense with sword intent!
At this moment, the other three major factions controlling Yunmeng City had already expressed their stance.
They were willing to be Su Jingzhen and Xuening’s backing.
Of course, their intentions were also very clear.
Who wouldn’t want to recruit such a talented alchemist as Su Jingzhen and Xuening?
If they were nurtured well, their future achievements might even surpass those of the two seated on the evaluation platform.
Moreover, the four major factions controlling Yunmeng City, including the Feng family, should already be aware of Xuening’s identity.
With Xuening’s talent, as long as she was recruited, she would definitely become another Dantai Mingjing in the future.
After the Flowing Wind Sword Sect made their stance, the other prominent families in Yunmeng City, such as the Gao family and the Qiyun City, also stood up to express their support.
Although it was difficult for these factions to win over Su Jingzhen and Xuening, it was still good to establish a good relationship.
In the future, they might need to ask for favors from these alchemists.
Moreover, everyone knew that the explosion at Spirit Sound Inn the previous night was definitely the work of the Feng family, but they just lacked evidence.
Naturally, no one had any good feelings towards the Feng family.
As the various factions expressed their stances, the Feng family’s people grew increasingly gloomy.
Feng Mingyan’s fists were clenched, his finger bones white with tension.
The killing intent in his heart was reaching its peak, but he couldn’t do anything.
The frustration was driving him mad.
To him, the more Su Jingzhen and Xuening shone, the more he felt humiliated.
He could feel many gazes falling on him, each one like a knife.
However, no one was paying attention to Feng Mingyan at this moment.
Everyone’s gaze was fixed on Su Jingzhen and Xuening.
Feng Qingya below the platform also nodded silently to them.
Only then did the two of them slightly bow to Feng Lie.
After all, the Feng family controlled the Treasure Gathering Pavilion in Yunmeng City, and their treasure vault was said to have unimaginable depths.
No one knew how many high-grade medicinal materials were hidden within.
Since they had the opportunity to enter and choose one, they naturally wouldn’t give it up.
Su Jingzhen had been thinking about the ‘North Sea Dragon’s blood’ that Shuang Jiang had mentioned earlier, and this time, he might finally get to see it.
Feng Lie nodded to them, then turned his gaze to the surrounding cultivators.
“Let all friends present know that my Feng family is a faction that keeps its promises.
This time, I also welcome all of you to my Feng family to bear witness!”
