Martial God Asura

Chapter 6269: Conditions For a Partnership

Jie Shanxian calmly flicked her wrist and took out a bamboo tube. It looked ordinary and was only thirty centimeters long, but it emanated the Ancient Era’s aura.

It was a treasure!

“Chu Feng, treat it as if this has never happened. Go and do what you must.”

She pointed the bamboo tube upward, and a brilliant surge of spirit power shot out from it, piercing through the black net to form a teleportation passageway.

The Seven Realms Immortal Sectmembers tensed up at the sight of the formation passageway.

Knowing that this was Jie Shanxian and Chu Feng’s escape route, they quickly constructed formations to sever the passageway, but nothing worked. They resorted to their treasures too, but not even the saber emanating the Ancient Era’s aura falling from the sky could sever the passageway.

This put them in a spot.

They had underestimated Jie Shanxian’s treasures. It frustrated them to see the prey they had caught in their net escaping just like that, and it didn’t help that this prey had just devoured the cultivation resources they had prepared for their juniors.

“Elder...” Chu Feng looked at Jie Shanxian with conflicted eyes.

He realized that a restriction was imposed on the formation passageway—only juniors could enter it.

Jie Shanxian looked at Chu Feng with a gleeful smile. “I told you that I’d guarantee your safety. How about it? I’m a person of my word, right?”

Before Chu Feng could answer, she conjured two huge spirit power hands to grab Chu Feng and Wang Qiang and toss them into the formation passageway.

“Chase them! The formation passageway has to stop somewhere!” the grand elder ordered.

The sect elders quickly followed the formation passageway to chase after Chu Feng.

However, the formation passageway disappeared shortly after Chu Feng and Wang Qiang entered it, and the passageway was not a straight path. It was impossible to find the exit just by heading straight.

Thus, the sect elders had no choice but to return.

“You useless things!” the grand elder berated the elders, though he didn’t punish them.

Such escape treasures were meticulously designed to stop pursuers. The outcome would likely be the same even if he was the one who gave chase. He was merely berating the elders to vent his frustration.

In the end, he turned his gaze back onto Jie Shanxian, the cause of his anger. “It looks like you have depleted your means. Let me see how long you can hide in there!”

Jie Shanxian scoffed. She sat down and took out all the pills she had refined from the Purpledream Ascensions to assimilate them.

...

The teleportation passageway was merely concealed; it didn’t truly vanish. The fact that Chu Feng and Wang Qiang appeared somewhere else in this realm was the biggest proof of that.

“B-b-brother, what do we do next?” Wang Qiang asked grimly.

Their best course of action was to leave this place as soon as possible.

However, they knew that Jie Shanxian had sent the two of them out, likely because she had no way of escaping from that situation. In other words, she was in danger.

Despite Wang Qiang’s foul mouth, he was a loyal friend. He couldn’t have become Chu Feng’s close friend if not for that. He, too, was worried about Jie Shanxian.

“Brother, you wouldn’t leave even if I advised you so, right?” Chu Feng asked.

“I’ll f-f-follow you. If you go, we’ll go t-t-together.” Wang Qiang grabbed Chu Feng’s sleeves as if afraid that the latter would shake him off with his means.

“I’ll be frank. Elder Jie has saved us; I can’t leave her to the lurch. Our strength is nowhere enough to deal with the Seven Realms Immortal Sect, so I’m thinking of seeking reinforcement,” Chu Feng said.

“S-s-seeking reinforcement? Are we heading to the T-T-Totem Galaxy?” Wang Qiang asked.

They had chatted quite a bit since their reunion.

From Chu Feng, he learned that the Immortal Sea Fish Clan was also currently in the Totem Galaxy. The Totem Dragon Clan might not be a match for the Seven Realms Immortal Sect, but the Immortal Sea Fish Clan could still put up a fight.

“It’s too far. We won’t make it in time,” Chu Feng replied.

“But w-w-who else can we ask?” Wang Qiang was confused.

“The Huangfu Heavenly Clan.”

“The hell!” Wang Qiang widened his eyes in shock. “Brother, are you o-o-out of your mind?!”

That was Wang Qiang’s first thought, but he knew that Chu Feng was not the type to make ridiculous suggestions. He thought about it before asking, “Are you intending to negotiate with them using the energy you obtained from the Immemorial Bloodline Tower?”

“That’s right,” Chu Feng replied.

“What if that doesn’t work?”

“It will work.” Chu Feng was confident in the attractiveness of his bait.

“All right, l-l-let’s go,” Wang Qiang said.

The two of them got into action.

The Immemorial Bloodline Tower had collapsed, so the Huangfu Heavenly Clan returned to their headquarters.

Chu Feng approached the Huangfu Heavenly Clan without disguising his appearance. Their guards could hardly believe their eyes when they saw him. They couldn’t understand where he had found the guts to march up into their base.

Regardless of Chu Feng’s intention, the Huangfu Heavenly Clansmen rushed out and encircled him. Soon, the encirclement opened up, and Huangfu Zhantian walked up to Chu Feng.

“What are you doing here?” Huangfu Zhantian asked.

Chu Feng and Wang Qiang were dumbstruck.

To their disbelief, Huangfu Zhantian sounded unhappy even though they had practically offered themselves up to the Huangfu Heavenly Clan.

“Elder, can you call the shots in the Huangfu Heavenly Clan?” Chu Feng asked politely.

He had no idea what was going on with Huangfu Zhantian, but it was a good thing that the latter wasn’t hostile toward them.

“What do you want?” Huangfu Zhantian asked.

“I’ll tell you if you can call the shots. Otherwise, please call someone else who can make decisions in the Huangfu Heavenly Clan. I have a request to make,” Chu Feng said.

A deep, resonant voice echoed from afar. “I can call the shots. Speak your mind.”

The encirclement opened up once more. A large group of Huangfu Heavenly Clansmen reminiscent of celestial troops descended from the sky toward them. The group included not just Huangfu Jiangxing and Huangfu Jiangyue, but Huangfu Shangwu as well.

Chu Feng could tell at a glance that this group was extraordinary. He turned his eyes to the person standing at the forefront of the group.

It was a gray-haired, middle-aged man.

“Father, that’s the brazen scoundrel who stole our treasure in the Immemorial Bloodline Tower! He must be responsible for Shengyu’s disappearance! Hand him to me! I’ll make him confess to everything!” Huangfu Jiangxing exclaimed.

The gray-haired, middle-aged man was the Huangfu Heavenly Clan’s Clan Chief.

The clan chief paid no heed to Huangfu Jiangxing; his eyes remained focused on Chu Feng.

“Why have you come?” the clan chief asked.

“I came to request a partnership,” Chu Feng replied.

“A partnership?”

The Huangfu Heavenly Clansmen couldn’t believe their ears. They wondered if Chu Feng was off his rockers. Who, in their right mind, would request a partnership with someone whom they had stolen from and utterly humiliated?

However, the clan chief asked, “What kind of partnership are you looking for?”

“I want you to rescue someone from the Seven Realms Immortal Sect,” Chu Feng replied.

The Huangfu Heavenly Clansmen were flabbergasted.

“You are on bad terms with the Seven Realms Immortal Sect?” the clan chief asked.

“You can say so,” Chu Feng replied.

“Who are we rescuing? The Heavenly Dragon World Spiritist who accompanied you here?”

“That’s right.”

Chu Feng proceeded to share his conflict with the Seven Realms Immortal Sect.

“Hahaha...” Huangfu Jiangxing burst into laughter. “So that’s how you slipped away! The Seven Realms Immortal Sect helped you! You must have thought that they are your backing, but they are after your life! Chu Feng, fear must have made you dumb. Have you forgotten about your conflict with our Huangfu Heavenly Clan? What makes you think that we’ll help you?”

The other Huangfu Heavenly Clansmen also burst into laughter. They didn’t think that anyone sane could have done this.

The clan chief suddenly glanced at his clansmen, and the mocking laughter vanished.

“I understand your agenda here. Give me a reason to help you,” the clan chief said.

“I have no reason,” Chu Feng replied.

The clan chief was taken aback.

Huangfu Jiangxing took this chance to interject, “Father, that fellow is here to make a fool out of us. Let’s not waste our time with words and capture him! I’ll teach him a lesson!”

Chu Feng added, “But I have a hostage.”

He opened his palm and released a surge of spirit power. A figure appeared out of thin air.

All the Huangfu Heavenly Clansmen, as well as Wang Qiang, froze in place.

“T-t-t-t-the heck! Huangfu Shengyu?!”
