Chapter 280 8 big families
Having given both families a way out, Situ Feilong and Murong Beixiao had nothing more to say. Murong Beixiao said, "Alright, Senior Brother Lin Feng, for your sake today, let's just let this matter go."
"Senior Brother Feilong, what about you?"
"Since Senior Brother Lin Feng has said so, what else can I say? By the way, Senior Brother Lin Feng, who is this gentleman?"
Situ Feilong was naturally referring to Chao Bufan. He Linfeng smiled and said, "Oh, let me introduce you. This is Brother Chao Bufan. Brother Bufan, this is Senior Brother Feilong from the Situ family, and this is Senior Sister Yanhong. These two are Senior Brother Beixiao from the Murong family, and this is Senior Sister Sanmei."
Chao Bufan nodded and smiled at the four of them. He had thought something had happened, but since it was a conflict between the two families, there was no need to stay any longer. He said, "Brother Lin Feng, I have important matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave!"
He turned and left, disappearing into the moonlight in the blink of an eye.
Seeing Chao Bufan's arrogant and rude demeanor, Situ Feilong frowned slightly and said, "Senior Brother Lin Feng, this person has quite the airs."
Lin Feng smiled slightly and said, "Don't underestimate him. None of us here are his match."
Murong Beixiao asked in slight surprise, "Really? Senior Brother Lin Feng, even you can't beat him?"
This Lin Feng is the most outstanding disciple among the younger generation of the He family. He is one of the best among the younger generation of the He family. Along with Murong Qingyun of the Murong family, Situ Wenlong of the Situ family, Ding Junhui of the Ding family, Shangguan Xianyin of the Shangguan family, Ximen Yunlin of the Ximen family, Fang Changchun of the Fang family, and Xuanyuan Leiting of the Xuanyuan family, these eight young disciples are named the "Eight Great Vajras". They are all the best in their respective families and the number one among the younger generation.
Regardless of who they are, they are all promising young people who are talked about by the eight great families. Therefore, their status in their respective families is naturally extraordinary, and even in other families, they are highly respected.
Lin Feng's few words just now resolved the conflict between Situ Feilong and Murong Beixiao, demonstrating their immense respect for him—a testament to his strength. If those words had come from Lin Yun, the two families might not have been surprised, but coming from Lin Feng, they carried a different meaning.
Situ Feilong also exclaimed in surprise, "No way! Senior Brother Lin Feng, I've never seen this person before. He looks completely unfamiliar and isn't one of our eight great families."
Murong Beixiao had already put aside his earlier displeasure with Situ Feilong and continued, "That's right, all the cultivators in HX are gathered in our eight great families, how could there be any cultivators left?"
Lin Feng smiled slightly and said, "It's true. This extraordinary brother is indeed more powerful than me. I sensed the energy fluctuations within his body by chance before, and they were far superior to those of us."
The Murong and Situ families were increasingly surprised. After a moment, Murong Sanmei said, "Senior Brother Lin Feng, are you mistaken? In the entire HX, apart from our eight great cultivation families, where else are there cultivators? Besides, even if there are, we would know about them."
Lin Feng smiled slightly and said, "This is what they mean by 'there are heavens beyond heavens, and people beyond people'! I heard from Brother Bufan that his cultivation was taught by a senior, but his age is about the same as ours, yet his cultivation is above ours. That means that Brother Bufan must have a powerful backer. Perhaps, the strength of his backer is even greater than that of our eight great families."
"hiss!"
Everyone gasped in astonishment.
After a moment, Situ Feilong spoke up: "This matter is of utmost importance. Senior Brother Lin Feng, we should go back and report to the family head."
Upon hearing this, Lin Feng pondered for a moment, then asked, "Senior Brother Feilong, Senior Brother Beixiao, have you made any other discoveries tonight?"
The two shook their heads in unison, saying, "We didn't find anything."
Lin Feng nodded and said, "In that case, I, Senior Sister Yan Hong, and Senior Sister San Mei will go back and report this matter to the family head. You and Senior Brother Lin Yun can go and look around."
No one objected; they all replied in unison, "Okay."
According to an ancient book: Under the heavens and on the earth, with HX as the core, there are eight directions: east, west, south, north, northeast, northwest, southeast, and southwest.
The land of HX is blessed with beautiful mountains and rivers, outstanding people, and fertile soil. However, the surrounding wilderness is mostly treacherous and dangerous, with few animals and birds, making it difficult for ordinary people to reach. It is fraught with danger and a place where one has a slim chance of survival.
The land of HX is divided into several parts. To the north lies the frigid, icy plains of the far north, sparsely populated by humans. To the east stretches a vast, boundless sea. To the south, the climate is suitable, with lush vegetation and endless mountainous and forested landscapes, though these are mostly barren mountains and treacherous waters, teeming with miasma and poisonous creatures. To the west, there are boundless grasslands and forests, rich in rare and precious plants and animals, with beautiful scenery and a relatively diverse range of flora and fauna.
The He family, an ancient clan hidden among the common people, is unknown to the outside world. In fact, not only the He family, but also the other seven major cultivation families are the same; no one knows that HX has eight major cultivation families, nor where these eight families are located.
HX Eight Desolations is precisely the secluded place of the eight great cultivation families; here we will focus on the He family.
J Province and J City are important provinces and cities in the south. Due to their unique geographical location and climate, they have beautiful mountains and rivers and pleasant scenery, making them one of the famous scenic tourist provinces and cities in HX.
In J Province, X County, there is a mountain called Tulong Mountain. This mountain is high and steep, with ancient trees reaching the sky. It is the highest mountain in the county and is rarely visited by people.
Because this mountain is so high that it seems to pierce the clouds, one can only see the enchanting clouds and mist around its waist, never the true face of the summit. Even satellite images cannot clearly show the top. However, since there is no decent road leading directly to the summit, anyone who wants to climb the mountain for the view usually only manages to reach a short distance before turning back, let alone reaching the halfway point.
However, under the pale moonlight, a white figure moved like a ghost through the mountainside of Tulong Mountain, appearing at the summit in just a moment. At first glance, who else could this person be but He Linfeng?
Upon reaching the summit, Lin Feng strode forward. A hundred meters ahead stood a massive, doorless stone frame, its perimeter covered in green vines, making it difficult to spot without close inspection.
