Lingyan Pavilion.

The crowd was excited and jubilant. Now, Lingyan Pavilion could be considered the true master of Feihong City. Abundant resources were in their hands, and it was only a matter of time before they grew stronger.

Qin Feng and his group's trip was quite successful, and Xiao Fan and Yin Tiantian also gained something.

Originally, I intended to visit Lingyan Pavilion, but unexpectedly, a little mishap occurred and I ended up doing Lingyan Pavilion a great favor.

At this point, he already had the intention to leave; Qin Feng still had his own things to do.

Go to the Heavenly Sword Sect to see Little Stone and fulfill the promise made years ago. Find the other laws, repair the Heaven-Stabilizing Pearl, and unravel the mysteries of your past life.

These are all things that await his attention.

He said to Shen Qianjun and Xu Yusong, "Elders, we have troubled you during this time. Now that this matter is settled, it is time for us to leave. We hope to meet again someday."

Shen Qianjun immediately wiped the smile off his face and reluctantly tried to persuade him to stay:

"Young friends, please don't be in such a hurry to leave. You just did us a great favor, and we at Lingyan Pavilion haven't had a chance to properly repay you yet. How can you just leave like this?"

Qin Feng smiled slightly: "It's just a test for us. We are destined to meet Meng Ying and Lingyan Pavilion. Elder Shen, you don't need to take this to heart."

Shen Qianjun sighed:

"This matter may be insignificant to you young friends, but for our Lingyan Pavilion, it is a matter of life and death. Without your help, our Lingyan Pavilion would certainly be in dire straits."

Xu Yusong also expressed his feelings:

“Old Shen is right. The little girl not only cured my illness, but also helped Lingyan Pavilion turn the tide. We will never forget this kindness. Let’s stay a few more days so we can treat you well.”

Qin Feng was both amused and exasperated. He wanted to leave, but he couldn't refuse their hospitality, leaving him unsure of what to say.

Shen Mengying sensed Qin Feng's intention to leave and suggested:

"How about this, grandfathers, let's hold a farewell banquet for Qin Feng and the others. They have other things to do, and we don't want to stop them or delay their business. So let's show our appreciation by preparing some gifts."

She then looked at both sides and asked, "What do you think?"

Shen Qianjun and Xu Yusong exchanged a glance and thought this was acceptable; at least they had a chance to express their gratitude.

"Then please stay another day, my young friends. I'll host a grand feast for you tonight, and you can leave tomorrow. How does that sound?"

Qin Feng thought for a moment, then nodded. One more day wouldn't make a difference.

"Alright, then I'll trouble you two. Thank you, Mengying."

...

Guiyi Building.

Pei Ming of Biyunxuan and Sui Yong of Haotianfu were also in the Guiyilou council hall at this moment.

Xu Zhenyang sat in the head seat, looking at his two allies.

"We're all in the same boat, there's nothing we can't talk about. What do you suggest we do now?"

Pei Ming sighed, slapped his thigh hard, and said helplessly:

"Sigh, I never thought things would turn out this way. Everything was planned so well, but it all turned out to benefit someone else. Sigh."

Sui Yong deeply agreed, "Who can argue with that? We thought of everything and plugged all the loopholes so that the people from Lingyan Pavilion wouldn't go back on their word. But look what happened, we've blocked our own escape route."

Xu Zhenyang looked at his two teammates who were sighing and lamenting, feeling quite helpless.

"I say to you two, you are all leaders of your respective forces. Even if things don't go as we wish, the winner takes all, and there's nothing unacceptable about it. There's no need to regret it anymore. What I'm asking is, what should we do next?"

Pei Ming sighed again and said irritably:

"What else can we do? We've already made a vow. We studied the vow for several days before we made it, and we were so sure there was nothing wrong with it that we made it. How can we go back on our word?"

Sui Yong echoed:

"Old Pei is right. We've dug our own grave and buried ourselves in it. What else can we do?"

Xu Zhenyang looked at his two incompetent teammates and was furious. They were truly hopeless; how could he have been so blind as to cooperate with them in the first place? He patiently explained:

"I'm asking what our next choice is: should we stay in Feihong City, or find another place to go?"

Pei Ming and Sui Yong were shocked and stared at Xu Zhenyang in disbelief.

"Old Xu, just say what you have to say. Do you have a good way out?"

Xu Zhenyang looked bitter. "What good way out is there? If there were, I would have taken the people from Guiyi Tower there long ago. Why would I stay in Feihong City?"

"Tch, then what the hell are you talking about?"

"Exactly, I thought you had something good to say, but you just talked for nothing."

The more Xu Zhenyang looked at his two allies, the more troubled he became.

"Are you two planning to stay in Feihong City? You should know that we have really offended Lingyan Pavilion this time. They won't treat us like they used to. You should think carefully."

"Then, what should we do? We have families to support, and we don't know where to go right now."

“That’s right. Although things might be a bit stifling in Feihong City, Lingyan Pavilion will still need us. We can still make a living here.”

Xu Zhenyang remained silent for a long time. Although Pei Ming and Sui Yong's words lacked ambition, they were indeed the truth. Staying in Feihong City would mean fewer resources, but they could still manage. However, going to other places was uncertain, and everything was unknown.

However, he was unwilling to give up. Xu Zhenyang did not want to do things according to Lingyange's wishes, nor did he want to accept the leftovers from Lingyange. He wanted to persuade the two of them to start anew with him, but he had no convincing reason.
