Martial God Asura (Web Novel)
chapter-6004

Formidable restrictions had been imposed on the letter, so only Chu Feng’s aura could open it. If anyone else attempted to do so, the letter would self-destruct. The person who wrote this letter didn’t trust even the guild leader.

Chu Feng took the letter and removed the restrictions imposed on it with his aura. Two wisps drifted into his palm.

These two wisps looked familiar—they were Xianhai Shaoyu and Little Fishy’s auras.

That made Chu Feng breathe a sigh of relief. He proceeded to read the letter, and that further eased his worries.

Brother Chu Feng, my family and I are safe. You need not worry. Take care of yourself.

It was written by Xianhai Shaoyu. The letter, along with the two wisps of aura, were to prove that they were safe.

“Elder, who handed the letter to you?” Chu Feng asked.

“I received it from an Immortal Sea Fish Clan’s elder. He was severely injured, but fortunately, it wasn’t fatal. He came shortly after the Immortal Sea Fish Clan was attacked. The Immortal Sea Fish Clan has sustained grievous damage in this attack; it has likely damaged their foundation,” the guild leader replied.

“Did the elder say anything else?” Chu Feng asked.

“Nothing else. I’m also curious to know who is behind the attack on the Immortal Sea Fish Clan, but that elder refused to reveal it, saying that there’s no benefit to knowing about it. You should be able to tell how secretive they are based on the letter; it’s as if they are worried that I’d reveal their whereabouts,” the guild leader grumbled.

She thought that she was on close terms with the Immortal Sea Fish Clan, but the latter refused to tell her anything when something this huge had happened. She felt like they were treating her like an outsider.

“Chu Feng, what’s written on the letter,” the guild leader asked.

She could have sensed what was in the letter without reading it with her cultivation, but she chose not to do so because she respected Chu Feng and the Immortal Sea Fish Clan. It would be best if Chu Feng was willing to tell her, but otherwise, she would respect their privacy.

“They were reporting their safety.” Chu Feng passed the letter over to the guild leader.

He thought that the letter’s content wasn’t that important; what was more important was the two wisps of aura. They assured him that Xianhai Shaoyu and Little Fishy were at least safe for now.

The guild leader glanced at the letter before returning it to Chu Feng. “In any case, it’s good that they are safe.”

Despite her grumbling, she wasn’t that bothered about whether the Immortal Sea Fish Clan trusted her or not. What she was more concerned about was their safety. In truth, she had gone to one of the Immortal Sea Fish Clan’s branches when she learned about the attacks.

What she saw was tragic. There was no doubt the Immortal Sea Fish Clan had sustained severe damage in this incident.

However, as long as their most outstanding juniors remained alive, it was only a matter of time before they made a comeback.

Chu Feng stowed away the letter. He was much calmer now that he had confirmed Xianhai Shaoyu and Little Fishy were alive.

“Chu Feng, since they are safe, I suggest you steer clear of the Immortal Sea Fish Clan’s affairs. I don’t know who’s behind the attacks, but the culprit is beyond your means to deal with. Your good friend must have known about your temperament, which is why he took the trouble to send this letter to you despite being in a dire situation themselves,” the guild leader said.

“Don’t worry, elder. I’m not a fool. I don’t plan to court death,” Chu Feng replied with a smile.

“You aren’t a fool, but you aren’t bright either. Whatever. As long as you know what you’re doing. Also, you should have noticed the phenomenon, right? God’s Era is commencing,” the guild leader said.

“Mmhm.” Chu Feng nodded.

“What are your plans?”

“I want to go.”

“I knew it.” The guild leader sighed in resignation.

“Elder, are you planning to go too?”

“I don’t like joining commotions, not to mention that God’s Era is a huge affair. The Seven Realms Sacred Mansion and the Ancient Era’s powers will surely participate in it. I doubt I’ll get anything out of it even if I go. I won’t stop you if you wish to go, but don’t even think about dragging me down with you,” the guild leader said.

“I’m just asking.” Chu Feng smiled awkwardly.

In truth, he would prefer it if the guild leader could accompany him, as he could sense that the guild leader was extremely powerful. However, he wasn’t in a place to say anything, especially when she had already made her stance clear.

“I’m tempted to advise you and Zi Ling to stay here and focus on your cultivation, but everyone has their path to walk. You’re the type who enjoys diving headfirst into danger, but the strongest experts walk the same path. Opportunities and risks often come hand in hand.

“I can’t help you much in God’s Era, so I can only offer you some advice. Know your limits and tread carefully. If you realize that you can’t compete with the others, it’d be best for you to back out. Your strength is lacking compared to the other powerhouses, but of course, you are still young and have a long road ahead of you,” the guild leader said.

“Rest assured, elder. I won’t be reckless,” Chu Feng replied with a grin.

“All right. I’ll leave you two lovebirds to talk,” the guild leader said before taking her leave.

Chu Feng turned to Zi Ling.

“When are you going to make a move?” Zi Ling asked.

“I might have to leave earlier lest I miss the initiative,” Chu Feng replied.

Zi Ling walked closer and tidied Chu Feng’s clothes before gently saying, “Leave if you have to. Don’t feel burdened. I’ll be waiting here for you.”

She looked at him with confident eyes that relayed her trust that he would return safe and sound. However, Chu Feng could tell that she was putting on an act; she was worried sick about him.

It was only normal for her to feel that way. She had heard about God’s Era too, not to mention the guild leader had just said that Jie Tianran and the Ancient Era’s clans would be there too. That humongous spirit formation gate in the Seven Realms Galaxy would likely become the most dangerous place in the world of cultivation.

Despite her worry, Zi Ling chose to keep her feelings to herself lest Chu Feng feel burdened. However, her consideration only made Chu Feng feel even worse.

He grabbed her and pulled her into his embrace. She reciprocated by wrapping her hands around him.

The truth was that she wanted to keep Chu Feng here, but she knew that it would be selfish to demand that.

“Let’s work hard together so that we can enjoy peace in the future,” Chu Feng said.

“Mm.” Zi Ling nodded in agreement.

Shortly after, Chu Feng took his leave and began making his way to the Seven Realms Galaxy. Along the way, he took out an ancient talisman paper, wrote something on it, and crushed it.

It was a means for him to communicate with the Totem Nine Daoists.

Many experts would surely gather for the opening of God’s Era. Unless there were special privileges for juniors, he wouldn’t be able to get anything out of it with his current cultivation. Thus, he needed helpers.

And the Totem Nine Daoists were the strongest helpers he could find at hand.
