Cloud Night was utterly confused, asking curiously, “Anzu, are you talking about Xia Fei? How is he involved in all of this!?”

Anzu Night and Zesyr Night saw that they could no longer keep things under wraps, so they told Cloud Night everything that had happened in the Collapsed Expanse of Founders, a recount which left the old man amazed.

“You’re saying that Xia Fei is a level 3 Spiritualist!?” Cloud Night demanded sternly.

“No, level 4!” Zesyr Night somewhat proudly replied. In truth, their news was already outdated. Xia Fei was already level 5!

“Then the person who treated my injuries back then?” Cloud Night went on.

Zesyr Night replied, “Although Xia Fei said that it was his master who treated you, I saw Xia Fei perform craniotomy on Fuchen in the Collapsed Expanse of Founders with my own eyes, treating Fuchen’s sealed brain region. Thus, I think it was actually Xia Fei who was the one who treated Grandfather.”

Cloud Night was stunned. Everyone knew who Fuchen was: the previous head of the orthodox Unrestricted Spiritualist lineage! Although he had been driven out by his disciples and deprived of his authority, in the eyes of the Soul Practitioner clans, he was still a majestic figure.

Xia Fei had treated Fuchen? AND he had done something as complicated as craniotomy!? Cloud Night found it somewhat difficult to come to grips with this idea. Even the head of the Sa-Din Race from the Annihilation Universe had been amazed at Xia Fei’s ability to treat Fuchen, let alone someone as lowly as Cloud Night. To him, this was nothing short of a miracle!

“So Xia Fei is very strong!?” Cloud Night asked.

Zesyr Night grew even more smug. She began to relate exaggerated descriptions of Fuchen and Ulan, the two Great Spiritualists at Xia Fei’s side, and she didn’t forget to pile praise upon Furball, Peacock Blue, Xia Guanghai, and Oro!

This girl truly had taken “liking a bird together with the house it’s on” to an unreasonable level. Xia Fei clearly wasn’t attracted to her, but Zesyr Night was still extremely passionate about him, already turning him into her ideal husband.

As for Xia Fei killing Shui Shengsheng, Feng Jianting, Young Master Xiao, and the Dark Spiritualists, Zesyr Night described those matters in vivid detail as well, making Cloud Night frown. These stories sounded utterly absurd. Did it not sound like Xia Fei’s way of doing things and strength was just too monstrous!?

Xia Fei had some relationship with the Night Clan, so Xia Fei being powerful wasn’t a bad thing. Alas, given Qiu Yang’s frantic questioning when Anzu Night had inadvertently let out that Xia Fei had killed Xiaoxiao, even a fool could see that Qiu Yang was harboring ill intentions!

This gave Cloud Night a headache, and he quickly asked, “You’re sure that Xia Fei killed the Seventh Young Master Xiao?”

Zesyr Night replied, “Xia Fei dealt Xiaoxiao a lethal blow, and though Xiaoxiao didn’t die on the spot, I’m guessing that he would last three days at most. He should already be dead.”

Whoosh!

Cloud Night massaged his head. The Xiao Clan had many widows, who were all crazy and unreasonable. No one wanted to provoke them, and by killing Xiaoxiao, Xia Fei had ended any hopes of negotiation with them. Once those madwomen found out, they would never let Xia Fei rest.

And it was Anzu Night who had leaked this matter! Given Xia Fei’s temperament, it was one thing if he didn’t lose anything, but once he suffered a loss, he wouldn’t let the Night Clan go!

There was also the Shui Clan and the Fufeng Clan, neither of whom were to be messed with. Shui Shengsheng and Feng Jianting had been the hopes of their respective clans, and Anzu Night and Zesyr Night had both been near their inexplicable deaths. Thus, some of the anger from these two clans would be directed at them!

The Night Clan was truly caught between a rock and a hard place!

“You guys can go. I need to think about this,” Cloud Night sighed, waving his hand.

Zesyr Night quickly said, “Grandfather, you had best not try and provoke Xia Fei again, he’s your savior! Moreover, if I may be forgiven for saying something unpleasant… Even if we came into conflict with the Shui, Fufeng, and Xiao Clans because of this incident, what about it? Can they really exterminate our Night Clan!?

“The power of those three clans is all out in the open, and we know what they have, but we have no idea what’s behind Xia Fei!” Zesyr Night quickly closed the door after giving her warning.

Cloud Night was startled, and shivered for a moment.

Zesyr Night was a little young lady who had no idea of the overarching situation and only wanted to speak up for Xia Fei. If the Night Clan got into conflict with Xia Fei, she might lose any chance of seeing him again.

But her words reminded Cloud Night that while those three clans were powerful, and Cloud Night knew of their strength, but who was Xia Fei? What were his trump cards? Cloud Night had no idea!

After a long time, Cloud Night made a decision. Grabbing his communication device, he called Xia Fei.

…

On the screen was the patriarch of the Aurora Clan, Wistful Heizus.

The Heavenly Treasure Company was quite capable, and had needed only a few hours after receiving notice to finish refurbishing Xia Fei’s courtyard, even installing the temporary media command center that Xia Fei had asked for. Xia Fei was using this system to speak with Wistful Heizus.

“Xia Fei, what in the world did you do? Isn’t this too risky?” Wistful Heizus sighed after listening to what Xia Fei had to say.

Xia Fei shook his head. “Only by taking on the greatest risk can one get the greatest reward. The Aurora Clan is no longer the Aurora Clan of my grandfather’s era! Despite using all its strength, all it’s managed to do is hold onto its second-tier status in the Chaos Society. Alpha is facing a period of great turmoil, and many clans will fall, but many clans might also rise up. At this time, you need to make a choice: preserve the past, or use all of the clan’s strength to strive for a better tomorrow!”

Xia Fei’s words were extremely motivating, and it was easy to tell that Wistful Heizus was quite tempted. But the clan had tens of millions of people to think about, and whether they were sent to Hell or Heaven all hinged on Wistful Heizus. This was a most immense responsibility!

Gritting his teeth, Wistful Heizus said, “It’s too much. I need to discuss this with the others before making a decision.”

Xia Fei nodded. “I completely understand. And I also know that the people you spoke of ceased to exist long ago. There is something I must say to you now: the moment you choose to go to war, I will need the strength of the entire clan! Including those old fellows who had gone off on their own!”

Wistful Heizus exclaimed in shock, “You need to disturb that many people!?”

“I do!” Xia Fei firmly said. “I know that the Aurora Clan has many experts who have gone into seclusion to open up spots in the clan. But when lives are at stake, no one can stand alone. I need all of the secluded experts from across the generations of the clan to come back!”

Wistful Heizus took a deep breath. Xia Fei had a grand plan in mind, but who was he planning to go to war with? He wanted ALL of the old monsters to come back!?

No matter what difficulties the Aurora Clan had faced, it had never disturbed those secluded experts. Why had the clan kept those old monsters in seclusion? Because they were the clan’s ultimate ace in the hole! They were not to be mobilized until the clan’s life was on the line. Was now really the time to mobilize these old monsters!?

“You don’t need to answer me now. Discuss things with those old monsters first. But I will need your answer within three days.” Xia Fei added coolly, “In addition, I must be frank with you. Within three months, all of the clan’s hidden monsters will return as long as they’re still alive! I dare wager my head on this. And as for us, we’ll just be showing our trump card a little earlier than the rest.”

…

Xia Fei ended the call and picked up a call from Xia Gucheng. The Grand Ancestor seemed in high spirits, probably because of the thought of his freedom.

Xia Fei shrugged and said, “Venerable Sir will have to put off your retirement a little longer!”

Whoosh!

Xia Gucheng first became very dejected, scratching his head like a child whose candy had been taken away. But he quickly turned stern, asking gravely, “So, a war is starting soon?”

“Yes, very soon now,” Xia Fei replied gravely.

Xia Gucheng rolled up his sleeves and asked, “Understood. What support do you need from the clan?”

Xia Fei felt inexplicably moved. They were both his relatives, but the Skywings were far different from the Auroras!

Xia Fei had almost worn his mouth out trying to persuade the Auroras, but he only needed to say one sentence to the Grand Ancestor to get the entire clan on his side! They were instantly ready to head to the front!

Swallowing his emotions, Xia Fei said, “Split into two groups. Group One should be made up of all the high cultivation warriors of the clan who can break ten million meters per second. They should set off now to the coordinates that I will send shortly. The second team should be made up of all warriors in the clan that can break one million meters per second. They should set out within three days to serve as reinforcements. Group One will be led by your venerable self, while Group Two will be led by Xia Geng.”

“Alright, I’ll get that settled right now. Do you estimate high losses?” Xia Gucheng asked him.

“In the worst scenario, the first group will be exterminated. The second team isn’t meant to fight, but used as searchers by Xia Geng to seek out any survivors in that worst case and bring them back,” Xia Fei said grimly.

“This is a pretty good plan. I’ll give the orders right now. We’ll set off in three hours.” Xia Gucheng nodded and turned off the screen without another word.

Bravo, Skywings!

Their absolute trust in the members of their clan was simply absurd!

Even though Xia Fei said that they might be all killed, the Grand Ancestor did not question him in the slightest!

…

Xia Fei sat back and began to think. At that time, the call from Cloud Night came in.

Once he was done listening, he smiled and said, “It’s fine. Whatever will come, will come. I dared to strike back then because I didn’t fear vengeance. Anzu Night is still young, so you don’t need to blame him too much.”

Cloud Night found these words very awkward to receive. Xia Fei was talking like someone of Cloud Night’s age, but he actually was only a few years older than Anzu Night!

“Right, the third day of next month is the day of commemoration for the Unrestricted Sect’s founder. The Spiritualist Guild and several other big clans will come to offer their well-wishes. Why don’t you come, too?” Xia Fei said casually.

Cloud Night nodded. “The invitation came a while ago, I was already planning on going. If you’re bringing it up, does that mean something is going to happen?”

Smiling, Xia Fei replied smoothly, “Not at all. It’s just that my intuition tells me that it will be a very exciting day!”
