While Qin Feng was asking Ling Wushang for advice on weapon crafting, news of the Ling family's affairs spread rapidly throughout the eastern part of the Holy Domain.
At that time, the Ling family had a lot of influence and people, spread throughout the entire eastern region.
Their concern wasn't about the internal strife within the Ling family, but rather that the Ling family had withstood the pressure from the four major powers—the Tianxuan Dynasty, the Ouyang family, the Duanmu family, and the Chu family—unscathed.
Compared to these four major forces, the Burning Heaven Sect is a minor player and was completely ignored.
These forces are all well-known in the East, yet this time, four of their peak Emperor Realm experts were forced to retreat by the Ling family. This is simply unbelievable.
Those who spread the news, eager to demonstrate their good fortune and pride in witnessing it firsthand, vividly described the scene.
However, they didn't know the details.
The whole East is talking about it.
Inside a crowded teahouse.
"Hey, have you heard? Something big happened in the East recently."
"What is it? You're not going to say it's about the Ling family, are you? Everyone knows about it now."
"I didn't expect the Ling family to be so well-hidden. A family specializing in weapon crafting has such a person."
"Who can argue with that? The Ling family has produced an astonishing figure. With a single strike, he simultaneously confronted four peak Emperor Realm experts from the Tianxuan Dynasty, the Ouyang family, the Duanmu family, and the Chu family. This can only be described as terrifying."
They didn't know Qin Feng's name; they were all impressed by his outstanding performance.
...
Burning Heaven Gate.
Sect Master Lin Lie sighed to Lin Ming, "Ancestor, alas, this matter was all settled, but unexpectedly, this person appeared out of nowhere."
Lin Ming was also helpless and shook his head.
"Perhaps this is fate; the Ling family is not destined to perish."
If we follow the agreement we made with Ling Yunbo, the Ling family will eventually be assimilated by my Burning Heaven Sect.
The Ling family will cease to exist. All their resources and secret techniques will become ours, and the Ling family members will only become tools for us to make money.
Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned.
To think that such a peerless master would emerge, and at such a young age! Even with my early-stage Emperor Realm cultivation, just sensing that astonishing purple light from afar makes my scalp tingle.
I'm sure that would be enough to kill me instantly.
Forget it, as long as this person is around, we shouldn't provoke the Lin family anymore.
Furthermore, the Ling family's reputation will undoubtedly soar this time. Tell your disciples to keep a low profile during this period, avoid conflicts with them, and conduct business with integrity.
Lin Lie nodded. "I understand. I will give the order."
...
Tianxuan Dynasty.
Xiao Fang met with Xiao Tianhuang and said, "Brother, are we just going to let this go like this? This matter is being spread everywhere, and it's not good for our reputation."
Xiao Tianhuang glanced at him. "What else can you do if you can't win? Is face more important than your life? Didn't you back down back then too?"
Xiao Fang was taken aback and asked in confusion, "But even so, why did you still make a deal with them, and even placed an order for ten times the amount?"
Xiao Tianhuang said calmly:
"The Ling family's weapon-refining techniques are indeed unique. If it weren't for Ling Yunbo's underhanded tactics, they wouldn't have had any trouble finding buyers."
This was especially true after this incident; their prices and quality were both quite good.
Furthermore, that young man who appeared this time is quite extraordinary; it's best we don't offend the Ling family.
Upon hearing Qin Feng's name, Xiao Fang's previously impatient mood immediately turned serious.
Yes, with Qin Feng around, they can't do anything to the Ling family.
...
The Ouyang family is in a similar situation; Ouyang Ye has already instructed Ouyang Xiaojun not to provoke the Ling family anymore.
The same applies to the Duanmu and Chu families.
Among the seven major powers in the east, even the Great Crimson Dynasty, the Great Yu Dynasty, and the Zhao family, who were not involved, were shocked upon hearing about this.
They all instructed their subordinates not to provoke the Ling family.
This is even more true for people from other smaller factions.
Thus, the Ling family, originally famous for weapon crafting, became renowned throughout the entire eastern region in a different way this time.
This is very advantageous for the Ling family; at least for the time being, no one will try to take advantage of them.
In addition, these forces that did not purchase weapons at the Ling family's competition are now proactively going to the Ling family to repurchase them.
Ling Yunfei has been all smiles lately; he hasn't been this happy since becoming the head of the family.
The Ling family's revenue this time far exceeded that of the last time, and many other forces also placed new orders and paid deposits.
Ling Yunfei patted Ling Hao on the shoulder and said with emotion:
"Xiao Hao, you did a great job this time. If you hadn't brought Qin Feng back, we wouldn't have such a booming order volume."
Ling Hao scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly, "Dad, I didn't know he was a master."
Ling Yuwei added a sentence.
"It's not just that we have no orders, even the Ling family is gone. But Qin Feng helped us so much, how are we going to answer him?"
Speaking of this, Ling Yunfei was also somewhat troubled. "Yes, how can our Ling family repay such a tremendous favor? Yuwei, do you have any ideas?"
Ling Yuwei shook her head, "I don't know either, but we can ask him what he needs and then make a plan."
Ling Hao said weakly, "I don't think Brother Feng helped us at all without expecting anything in return."
Ling Yunfei glared at him. "We can't refuse to give it to someone just because they don't want it. How about we give them a few swords first?"
At this moment, Ling Wushang's voice came over, "There's no need for the sword. Young friend Qin is currently forging his own sword."
Ling Yunfei was startled. "Does he know how to forge weapons? Do you need our help?"
Ling Yuwei's eyes lit up. She remembered this matter; Qin Feng had made this request when they first met.
