The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal

Chapter 307: Chapter 307 The Secret Behind the Tiger-shaped Jade Pendant

“Sect Master Ye, you’ve finally come out.”

Ding Qing immediately came over to greet him.

Following behind him were Ding Cheng and dozens of Element Gathering Realm experts, gasping for air, their eyes filled with respect as they looked at Ye Feng and Hu Feifei.

Although Hu Feifei had fallen into a deep sleep, Ye Feng supported her secretly with Heroic Spirit Power, and her face was shrouded in a layer of pink mist, so no one could tell she was asleep.

“This must be Sect Master Ye from Mystique Kingdom’s Misty Sect, right? I’m Ding Cheng, the City Lord of Beiliang City. Thank you for saving our lives along with your sect’s protector.”

Ding Cheng bowed his hands in thanks.

He had already taken Healing Pills and his injuries had recovered a fraction.

Although he had some fighting strength left, facing the terrifyingly powerful Hu Feifei and the unfathomable Ye Feng, he did not dare to be overconfident.

“It was just a small effort.”

Ye Feng waved his hand dismissively.

At this moment, Ding Qing bowed his hands and said, “Sect Master Ye, would you consider coming with us to the City Lord’s Mansion? To express our gratitude, we will surely prepare a grand feast for you.”

“No need for a grand feast, a simple meal will do.”

Ye Feng seemed very casual, but inside he was considering whether to pack some delicious food to bring back for the elders and disciples of the Misty Sect to enjoy.

An hour later.

At the top of an ancient pagoda-shaped building.

This place was the tallest among the thirteen towers of Beiliang and the location of the City Lord’s Mansion of Beiliang City.

The tower was very thick, with a diameter of over a hundred meters.

Even the banquet hall at the top floor was very spacious.

City Lord Ding Cheng sat in the main seat, Ye Feng and Hu Feifei sat in the seats for honored guests, while Ding Qing and the other cultivators all sat in their seats.

Looking at the variety of delicacies in front of him, Ye Feng’s appetite was aroused.

“Hmm, not bad, delicious!”

Ye Feng ate a roasted wing of a Fire Bird; he found the taste excellent, with a pleasant chewiness, and felt comfortable all over after eating it.

“Sect Master Ye flatters us, these are just humble meals, and I’m afraid they might not suit your palate,” Ding Cheng said with an embarrassed face.

It was the first time he had seen a “reclusive expert” such as Ye Feng so fond of the food prepared by a Spirit Chef, and he seemed to be enjoying it immensely.

“Eh, why isn’t your sect’s protector eating?”

Someone noticed that Hu Feifei was sitting motionless and not speaking.

Ye Feng explained, “Today, after defeating two Great Demons, the protector is tired and doesn’t want to eat.”

“Oh, it seems your sect’s protector must be cultivating her condition, understood,” Ding Cheng said with a realization.

The banquet soon ended.

Ye Feng, Hu Feifei, Ding Cheng, and Ding Qing remained at the pinnacle of the main tower.

Ding Cheng seemed to have something on his mind but hesitated to speak.

Ye Feng raised his eyebrows, “City Lord Ding, speak your mind.”

After pondering for a moment, Ding Cheng said, “Sect Master Ye, does my grandson Ding Qing really not meet the criteria to enter your sect?”

Ever since witnessing the terrible strength of Hu Feifei, Ding Cheng had hoped that Ding Qing could join the Misty Sect, but after inquiring, he learned that Ding Qing did not meet the sect’s requirements.

“Our Misty Sect does not recruit based on talent or cultivation level; it all depends on fate. As of now, Ding Qing has no fate with our Misty Sect, so we cannot accept him.”

Ye Feng shook his head repeatedly.

He also wanted to recruit new members!

But the rules of the sect required the Sect Leader to be older than the disciples.

Facing Ding Qing, who had good talent and a high cultivation level but was several years older than himself, Ye Feng felt helpless.

“Ah… what a pity.”

Ding Cheng also felt helpless.

At that moment, Ye Feng seemed to remember something. He took out a brocade box, retrieved the Tiger-shaped Jade Pendant, and asked, “City Lord Ding, what is this?”

“Eh, a Tiger-shaped Jade Pendant… Ding Qing, why did you give it to Sect Master Ye?” Ding Cheng stared at the jade pendant, his eyes nearly bulging out.

“`

“Grandfather, didn’t you say that the Tiger-shaped Jade Pendant was to be left entirely up to me? To thank Sect Master Ye for saving my life, I’ll just…” Ding Qing said timidly.

“Ah, you!” Ding Cheng pointed at Ding Qing, his fingers trembling continuously.

“If the Tiger-shaped Jade Pendant is inconvenient to give away, I wouldn’t force anyone to do so unwillingly,” Ye Feng said as he handed the Tiger-shaped Jade Pendant back.

Ding Cheng wanted to reach out to take it, but felt it was awkward to do so.

With no other choice, he sighed deeply and said, “The Tiger-shaped Jade Pendant has been given to Sect Master Ye; it seems this is fate.”

Ye Feng was baffled and asked, “Does this pendant have some special origin?”

After thinking for a moment, Ding Cheng explained, “How much does Sect Master Ye know about our South Ming Country?”

“I know the general situation,” Ye Feng replied.

“Then, Sect Master Ye should know that our South Ming Country has four major cities and one great capital city, totaling five cities, right? As for the Spirit Sea Realm, there is also one person in each city,” Ding Cheng asked with a meaningful look.

Ye Feng nodded and said, “Could it be that the other four cities also possess a Tiger-shaped Jade Pendant? And that by gathering all five pendants, one can summon a Divine Dragon… oh no, open a pagoda of treasures.”

“Sect Master Ye actually guessed it!” Ding Cheng was astonished.

Ye Feng rolled his eyes.

He had read books before, okay?

This kind of situation was easy to guess.

“Apart from our Beiliang City’s Tiger-shaped Jade Pendant, the city lords of the other four cities each hold a Dragon-shaped, Sparrow-shaped, Turtle-shaped, and Kylin-shaped Jade Pendant. Once all are gathered, the Cave Heaven World within the Barren Desert can be opened.”

Ding Cheng didn’t dare hide it and revealed everything.

“Since you have the Jade Pendants, why not open the Cave Heaven World?” Ye Feng was very curious.

However, he was even more curious about what treasures resided within.

“The treasure can be accessed once every hundred years, and it’s not so easy. Counting the time, it is about one year until the next opening,” Ding Cheng revealed the truth.

“One year? That’s quite soon!” Ye Feng nodded.

He glanced at the Tiger-shaped Jade Pendant and said, “Now that the Tiger-shaped Jade Pendant belongs to me, when the treasure is indeed to be opened a year from now, I will be sure to come.”

“Could you perhaps bring us along?” Ding Cheng tentatively asked.

“That’s possible,”

Ye Feng nodded and continued, “However, what I’d like to know is, what treasures are inside the pagoda that are worth the entire South Ming Country’s efforts to pursue.”

“A hundred years ago, I was fortunate enough to enter that Cave Heaven World. It contains a peculiar Spirit Fruit that aids cultivators in condensing their Primordial Spirit, breaking through to the Divine Origin Realm, known as the ‘Spirit Consolidating Fruit’. Aside from that, there are other treasures, but overall, the Spirit Consolidating Fruit is the most important,” Ding Cheng did not dare to conceal.

He even felt fortunate to have given the Tiger-shaped Jade Pendant to Ye Feng.

That way, when entering the Cave Heaven World a year later, he could seek Ye Feng’s help and greatly reduce the difficulty of finding the Spirit Consolidating Fruit.

“Spirit Consolidating Fruit, eh…”

Ye Feng looked at the Tiger-shaped Jade Pendant, his eyes flickering constantly.

He did not need such Spirit Fruits, but the disciples and elders in his sect certainly did.

Especially Gong Qingqiu, Mo Ying, and Huo Yunjie who had already broken into the Element Gathering Realm and might one day need to assault the Spirit Sea Realm.

As for the higher Divine Origin Realm, it was not out of the question to give it a try. freewebnøvel.com

Thinking this, Ye Feng pocketed the Tiger-shaped Jade Pendant.

“Alright, remember to send a notification to me in advance one year from now.”

“Rest assured, Sect Master Ye, I will inform you ahead of time… However, the entrance to the Cave Heaven World is not fixed, and it relocates every hundred years; we will need to locate it half a month in advance,” Ding Cheng said.

“No problem,”

Ye Feng and Ding Cheng quickly reached a consensus.

Thereafter, Ye Feng shared one of his own plans: “I have been preparing to expand the number of disciples in the Misty Sect recently, and I will be holding a disciple recruitment ceremony in Beiliang City. I wonder if City Lord Ding would find it convenient to spread the word?”

“A disciple recruitment ceremony? Of course, that’s convenient!” Ding Cheng nodded repeatedly.

Upon hearing this, Ding Qing’s face showed a look of dejection.
