Chapter 1897: Chapter 1895: Spatial Transposition

She hurriedly began to explain, "Qiaoqiao, I have no ties with this woman, and from another perspective, we are still enemies, but that’s all in the past. Old grudges and feuds, you young ones shouldn’t concern yourselves..."

Mrs. Leng seemed very reluctant to bring up the past, Sima Xiaowen and Gu Qiaoqiao exchanged a glance and did not ask further.

Soon, Chu Chengfeng and Qin Yize returned, and they did indeed find a peculiar place in the forest.

This strange cave was artificially constructed, using a formation unique to the Phoenix Clan. There were traces of human activity, but no signs of people.

It was also peculiar, camouflaged by shrubbery. Many had passed the area without noticing any abnormalities, exemplifying how bizarre this formation and barrier were.

Soon, Elder Sima and his group returned as well. Elder Sima looked at Chu Chengfeng and said solemnly, "Clan Leader, we went to the cemetery just now, and the tomb of the Wife of the Old Clan Chief is empty."

"So she is indeed still alive. I thought she was already dead." Chu Chengfeng’s eyes narrowed, his voice sharp.

"She was at the Divine Land Hall just before, but didn’t come in," Gu Qiaoqiao began, "She was blocked by my barrier, but I couldn’t catch her. She should now be using the space-conversion technique."

"Space-conversion technique?" Elder Sima paused in bewilderment, "No one in the Phoenix Clan knows this, not even the Old Clan Leader..."

At this point, Elder Sima suddenly stopped, his expression somewhat peculiar.

At the side, Elder San Ye became anxious, "Old Man Sima, whatever you’ve recalled, quickly say it. Are you trying to rush us to death?"

"Yes, yes, the Phoenix Clan is facing danger now, we should work together to eliminate this hidden threat."

"The Wife of the Old Clan Chief certainly harbors ill intentions towards the Phoenix Clan, otherwise, she wouldn’t have brought her illegitimate daughter back to become the future Wife of the Phoenix Clan Leader. Her treacherous ambitions are blatant."

The elders in the hall all spoke up.

At this time, Elder Sima looked at Chu Chengfeng, hesitated for a moment before uttering slowly, "Chengfeng, do you recall that your father once practiced a cultivation technique, which was this space-conversion technique."

Seeing Elder Sima’s odd expression, Chu Chengfeng had actually guessed roughly, "But my father never completed it. He only managed to find barriers invisible to others."

"Do you remember where that cultivation technique is?"

"In my father’s study." Then he added, "But I stored those books in the storage space back then..."

Chu Chengfeng, while speaking, opened his storage space and looked through it, then his face turned grave, shaking his head, "No, this cultivation technique isn’t here."

"It seems Liu Ruye has already mastered it," Elder Sima said slowly, with a heavy expression.

Originally thought to be the Imaginary land of joy and plenty of the Phoenix Clan Divine Land, they returned after much hardship, yet they didn’t foresee encountering such a significant hidden danger so soon.

This Liu Ruye is the Wife of the Old Clan Chief as well as Chu Chengfeng’s stepmother. Now Chu Chengfeng is the clan leader. He once put her to death, so her return is definitely not for reconciliation but revenge, something beyond doubt.

Everyone’s expression was somewhat heavy.

Chu Chengfeng looked at the people in the hall, pondered for a moment before saying, "Now go back and pack some personal items, leave here immediately. Liu Ruye’s target is me, she will definitely appear if you leave."

He could extinguish her once, and he could extinguish her a second time!

Sima Xiaowen blurted out, "Chu Chengfeng, are you joking?

"I’m not joking, I’m serious. Liu Ruye hates me the most, so she should not harm you."

Judging from the past six months where nothing happened at the Phoenix Clan Divine Land, it’s clear that Liu Ruye is targeting Chu Chengfeng, perhaps also including Sima Xiaowen who is with him.

So he absolutely must not implicate the clan members, especially Xiaowen.

"I am not leaving." Sima Xiaowen bluntly refused, then looked at everyone. "Elders and clanspeople, you leave for now. After dealing with this woman, I’ll notify you to return."

Actually, upon reflection this is truly the best course of action, since Liu Ruye’s enemy is Chu Chengfeng. But Elder Sima resolutely refused, "I will not leave."

Clan Leader Chu Chengfeng is his son-in-law, Sima Xiaowen is his daughter, how could he possibly leave his daughter and son-in-law here?

Elder San Ye looked at everyone, suddenly spoke, "There’s merit in what the Clan Leader said, perhaps Liu Ruye is indeed waiting for him to return to exact revenge, but there’s another possibility—she might have just emerged from somewhere."

Elder Sima nodded in agreement, "Liu Ruye isn’t clear-cut in her grudges; her heart is vicious, and she acts recklessly without regard for good and evil. At the time, just to go to another dimension with her daughter to find her lover, she nearly annihilated our clan, remember?"

Everyone nodded upon hearing this, Yes, if she had goodwill towards the clan, how could she have done such things?

Even if she wanted to leave, she shouldn’t harm the innocent.

Not to mention, the Phoenix Clan people always treated her and her daughter very well; most of the good resources were taken by them, yet they still committed heartless acts.

Chu Chengfeng stood firm in disapproval, "No, there are too many people here, when a problem arises we can’t manage it, so leaving is the best option."

Then he continued, "Currently, she is in the dark while we are exposed, our actions are constricted."

He then looked at Qin Yize, "You take your sister-in-law and the children and leave immediately, because here your sister-in-law has the greatest ability, combined with the perceptive White Wolf and Xiao Bai, she might target them first."

Unexpectedly, Qin Yize slowly shook his head, then pointed outside at the weather, "There’s about to be a torrential rain, it’s entirely unsuitable for descending the mountain at this moment."

It was then that everyone noticed the darkening sky outside; the sycamore leaves were swaying wildly in the sudden gale.

Inside the hall, due to formations and barriers, they didn’t sense it, but upon closer scrutiny, the sky was indeed overcast, heralding the arrival of the storm.

Walking from the Phoenix Clan Divine Land to the mountainside would take over an hour.

This hour no one could guarantee whether the downpour would occur or not.

In this season, particularly in the South, it was already the rainy season, with storms and thundershowers emerging unexpectedly.

Now even if one wished to leave, it was no longer possible.

Unconsciously, Chu Chengfeng looked at Qin Yize. Despite living for so many years, in terms of combat experience, he indeed couldn’t compare to Qin Yize who had been in the Special Preparation Team and Special International Medical Team.
