Chapter 716: Feng Yun's True Intentions [Two in One]

Fang Che smiled, "Today, Yun Shao's concerns should all be resolved."

Feng Yun replied indifferently, "In that case, that's great."

Then, with a smile, he said to Ice Heaven Snow, he said, "Ice Ancestor, I heard you're here. I came without eating, deliberately keeping my stomach empty for three days. How about we chat while we eat? Listen, my stomach is grumbling. To be honest, I've only heard my stomach grumble like this twice since I was young, and the first time was also when I came to your house for a meal."

Ice Heaven Snow laughed, "The first young master of the Only Righteous Sect, can't you pay attention to your image?"

"In front of the Ice Ancestor, I can throw away my image as long as I get to eat good food. Who cares about image?"

Feng Yun chuckled.

Fang Che was truly speechless.

Feng Yun actually showed this side of himself.

This was even more effective than Yan Beihan's coquettish behavior.

Moreover, since Feng Yun entered, Yan Beihan hadn't said much, allowing Feng Yun to take the lead.

He, on the other hand, became invisible.

Fang Che was amazed at Yan Beihan's approach: These two are truly the cream of the crop among the elite!

In today's setting, Feng Yun would undoubtedly showcase himself, and at this moment, no matter what Yan Beihan said, it would only serve to set the stage for Feng Yun, making her own magnanimity seem insufficient.

The people present were all under her command, so why compete with Feng Yun for attention? However, by completely yielding the stage to Feng Yun, she could achieve a balanced power dynamic without lifting a finger or exerting any mental effort. What's not to enjoy about that?

Ice Heaven Snow sighed, "I came to the Southeast hoping for a good meal, but instead, I'm being blown away by the autumn wind?"

Feng Yun swallowed his saliva and chuckled, "I'm willing, and Ao Zu would be too... After all, once you've tasted the outside food and found it hard to swallow, you'll appreciate Ao Zu's cooking. But I'm afraid the Southeast's cuisine might not satisfy you, Ice Ancestor."

Ice Heaven Snow hummed and rolled her eyes, "His cooking is barely edible, and I didn't complain. That's it."

"Yes, yes, you're right."

Feng Yun carefully assisted Ice Heaven Snow to the central dining table, his movements respectful.

Fang Che inwardly rolled his eyes in exasperation.

Ice Heaven Snow herself was at the peak of the Cloud Realm's cultivation, and she appeared as a youthful and charming young woman. Yet, Feng Yun actually helped her with the demeanor of supporting a 'frail and elderly ancestor'...

Fang Che desperately wanted to sarcastically comment, but he didn't dare.

Feng Yun continued, "I heard that Ao Zu hasn't cultivated for five hundred years, focusing solely on perfecting his culinary skills to cook for you..."

Ice Heaven Snow frowned, "Nonsense, what five hundred years?"

Then she smiled, "It's only been four hundred and eighty years. Since then, his cooking hasn't improved much."

"Yes, today we're truly blessed with good food."

Feng Yun beamed with joy, patting Fang Che's shoulder, and once again, he displayed an affectionate demeanor, "Night Demon, let me tell you... Opportunities like this are rare for me. I've only had two such chances in my entire life. You must eat to your heart's content! Eat as much as you can! In the future, for hundreds or even thousands of years, you might not get another chance like this..."

Fang Che broke into a cold sweat, "How dare I, my superior!"

He knew that Feng Yun wasn't being affectionate towards him; instead, he needed someone to set the stage for his words, and Yan Beihan, being a woman, was obviously unsuitable. So, naturally, Fang Che became the one to set the stage.

However, he had no choice but to play along.

Feng Yun burst into laughter, hugging Fang Che's neck, showing no signs of reprimanding him. Instead, he seemed like a long-time friend, his face beaming with excitement, "Night Demon, I'll teach you a lesson today. When you have the chance to take advantage, don't be shy... or you'll regret it, deeply!"

Ice Heaven Snow scolded, "You talk too much. Always stirring up trouble! Why are you so excited about encouraging others to take advantage of me?"

"Okay, okay! I won't dare."

Feng Yun laughed and then turned to Yan Beihan, "Little Cold, the best wine in our sect is the one kept by Deputy Sect Leader Yan. Aside from that wine, what else could match today's cuisine? If you didn't bring it, I'd have to call you 'Ancestral...'"

At that moment, Feng Xuechenxue, Bi Yunyan, and Feng Xue all burst into laughter.

The 'Ancestral' title naturally referred to 'Ancestral... Ancestor.' It could go on for a long time.

"Don't gross me out."

Yan Beihan raised her hand in surrender, "I brought it, and there's enough! Are you satisfied now?"

Feng Yun laughed, "Today is a great day."

He led Fang Che and Yan Beihan towards the wine table.

Then, addressing Feng Xue and the other two, he said, "You three, come over here too."

Feng Yifei'er stood up and invited, "Red Sister, it's been many years since we last drank. How about we have a drink in the neighboring room? Just the two of us."

Red Yi laughed, "Sure, are you two ganging up on me, a woman? Come on, today I'll make you two kneel!"

"Haha... I'm afraid it'll be you, Red Sister, who kneels."

The three of them left, chatting and laughing.

Ice Heaven Snow, sitting in the main seat, said indifferently, "Yingzi, you're not coming?"

The shadow under Feng Yun spoke in a sullen tone, "I'm going out for some fresh air... to visit a brothel, listen to the zither, and watch some dancing..."

The shadow vanished in a flash.

As soon as Bi Yunyan's three daughters saw this, their faces turned ashen.

Just as they were about to eat, they were humiliated again. They were on the verge of exploding.

Feng Yun's gaze swept across Feng Xue's face, and a hint of a mocking smile appeared on his lips as he said, "Why don't you all sit down?"

He didn't scold them, but his words were even more unbearable.

Bi Yunyan angrily declared, "I'll never dance again!"

"I'll never paint again!"

"I'll never play the zither again!"

The three of them were already on the verge of exploding.

The insults they had endured today were one after another, and this last one from Yingzi was truly fatal!

But as the three of them swore, Feng Yun, Ice Heaven Snow, and Yan Beihan remained silent.

They neither encouraged nor agreed. It was as if they hadn't heard a word! However, this only made the three women feel even worse.

Ice Heaven Snow sat in the highest position, alone on one side, with Yan Beihan and Feng Yun on either side. However, the seat to Feng Yun's left was half empty.

Feng Xue sat next to Feng Yun, Bi Yunyan next to Yan Beihan, and then Chen Xue.

The lowest position was Fang Che's.

Fang Che sat down, looking restrained.

Feng Yun laughed and said, "Night Demon, don't be so restrained. Just relax. After today, you might soar to the heavens or meet an untimely death, but no matter the outcome, there's no need to hold back, right?"

His words were truly impressive and extremely sincere.

Yan Beihan furrowed his brows.

Fang Che smiled and relaxed his whole body, saying, "Cloud Young Master's words are not wrong. Perhaps this will be the last meal I'll ever have. Indeed, there's nothing to hold back. Even if I die, I'll do it as a well-fed ghost."

He actually sat down comfortably, completely relaxed, with a sense of ease.

Feng Yun laughed and said, "I knew you were just pretending."

Ice Heaven Snow sat there with a dark expression and said, "So many people?"

"Just seven people. Look, today we're here specifically for the Night Demon's matter. The others are your juniors."

Feng Yun looked innocent and said, "Ice Ancestor, tell me who to kick out, and I'll do it immediately."

Ice Heaven Snow hummed and twisted her jade hand on her spatial ring.

She angrily said, "Feng Yun! You come and serve the dishes!"

"Yes, sir!"

Feng Yun immediately stood up.

One small plate after another was brought out, and they were all identical.

In an instant, the entire space was filled with spiritual energy, like a cloud-steamed rainbow.

Feng Yun said, "Seven portions."

"I'm not blind!"

Ice Heaven Snow rolled her eyes and took out another dish, which was also identical in seven portions.

Fang Che realized what was happening.

Each person had their own portion, and they weren't mixed together.

How meticulous!

Moreover, they were all high-quality dishes, not only overflowing with spiritual energy but also with mouthwatering aromas.

By the time they reached the last two dishes, there wasn't even a hint of aroma or spiritual energy leaking out. They were wrapped in spiritual energy!

Each person had six dishes and one soup.

A total of forty-nine dishes.

The table was large, but it couldn't accommodate so many dishes.

Ice Heaven Snow waved her hand.

Fang Che suddenly realized that in front of him were only his seven dishes; the entire table was his.

The others had the same feeling.

Ice Heaven Snow casually waved her hand, and the table was divided into seven sections, allowing everyone to chat without hindrance. She had manipulated space.

Her control over space was truly masterful.

Fang Che, who was still far from understanding space, was momentarily startled.

"Thank you, Ice Ancestor."

Feng Yun said.

Everyone together said, "Thank you, Ice Ancestor."

Ice Heaven Snow hummed and seriously warned, "No smacking while eating."

Fang Che's heart had an evaluation: No wonder the Madman Spear had been diligently practicing cooking for five hundred years to find a wife. This Ice Heaven Snow was truly a foodie.

Moreover, she ate very carefully and had many rules.

Yan Beihan laughed and directly brought out seven large jars of wine. He said, "Let's fulfill the wish of our first young master. Everyone, take a jar each and drink as you please."

Fang Che began to focus on the dishes in front of him.

As soon as the first bite entered his mouth, his eyebrows jumped in surprise.

The rich and fresh fragrance exploded in his mouth, and his whole body felt comfortable at that moment.

The spiritual energy entered his meridians in a gentle way, and with each bite, his abdomen, limbs, and entire body sighed in comfort.

Before he knew it, the second and third bites had already gone into his stomach.

It was so delicious!

For the first time in his life, Fang Che had tasted something so good.

Having wandered in the martial world, Fang Che didn't care much about food. Even if it was just to fill his stomach, he could chew on tree roots without changing his expression.

He had never cared about food cravings, always feeling that those who pursued good food must have some kind of mental illness.

But after eating this meal, he realized that it wasn't that other people had a mental illness; it was probably him!

This was the ultimate enjoyment.

At this moment, Fang Che even had the thought, 'After the annihilation of the Only Righteous Sect, the Madman Spear must be kept alive. He can't be killed! Keep him as a cook!'

A talented chef who can create exquisite dishes, it's a pity to kill such a person!

The others were also fully focused on enjoying the exquisite food, and no one dared to say a word, for fear of disrespecting such a culinary masterpiece.

It wasn't until two dishes were finished that Fang Che finally lifted his head.

He looked around and saw Yan Beihan and the four girls, including Feng Yun, all with satisfied expressions, savoring every bite.

Even Bi Yunyan, who had been dealt a heavy blow, had already forgotten her previous embarrassment, and her face was full of admiration.

Only Ice Heaven Snow remained calm and elegant, leisurely enjoying her meal.

This was as it should be. Ice Heaven Snow ate such exquisite dishes every day, and it had become a normal part of her life.

For her to be able to eat such delicious food whenever she ventured into the world, Madman Spear had specially prepared a unique spatial ring for his wife. Using his exceptional cultivation, he emptied the ring of all its spatial attributes.

Then, he affixed Celestial Soft Gold pieces to the ring, transforming it into a constant-temperature space where time stood still.

He then placed food inside.

Ensuring that whenever food was taken out of the spatial ring, it would be steaming hot, as if it had just been cooked.

Madman Spear had prepared enough ingredients for Ice Heaven Snow to feast on for two years.

And he was still worried it might not be enough. Whenever he had time, he would continue cooking and send the food into his wife's spatial ring.

After sending the most exquisite portions to his wife, the remaining food was what Madman Spear ate himself.

"Ah..."

Feng Yun sighed, "Ice Ancestor... Today, you finally had a good meal... It's so blissful, so sigh-worthy... I'm truly envious of you..."

Ice Heaven Snow replied indifferently, "It's just food."

"This is something that can make anyone envious," Feng Yun said.

"Night Demon, do you know? Ice Ancestor and Madman Spear Senior were from the same sect. Back then, Ice Ancestor had a special fondness for delicious food... Madman Spear Senior worked tirelessly on his culinary skills for hundreds of years... before finally moving Ice Ancestor, causing her to marry him."

"And for all these years, whenever Ice Ancestor was at home, Ao Zu would personally cook! Even when he was fighting the Guardians, at mealtime, he would tell his opponents: 'Wait for me, I'll go back and cook for my wife, and then I'll return to fight you."

"Pffft!"

Yan Beihan and Feng Xue imagined the scene of Madman Spear asking for a break during a battle to cook for his wife, and they couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Feng Yun's voice was filled with emotion, "Ao Zu's love for Ice Ancestor, truly... moves heaven and earth. He is the number one wife-spoiling demon in all of history!"

He looked at Feng Xue and the other girls, saying, "If you can find a husband like him in the future, it will be the result of accumulating blessings for countless lifetimes..."

Even Yan Beihan shook her head, completely hopeless, "This... can't be compared to Ice Auntie."

Fang Che was also moved, saying, "Indeed, he is a model husband."

Ice Heaven Snow's face remained calm, but the warmth in her eyes and the corners of her mouth made it clear that she was feeling extremely happy at this moment.

She sighed, "He just likes to research these minor paths, neglecting his cultivation. Otherwise, his achievements would not have stopped here. I, too, am frustrated with his lack of progress."

Her words left everyone speechless.

Madman Spear, Ao Zhan, was ranked fourth on the Cloud Peak Weapon Record.

He was already a figure at the pinnacle of the Cloud Peak, and yet she was still frustrated with his lack of progress? This pretense felt a bit forced...

After three rounds of drinks.

Feng Yun wiped his mouth, his handsome face glowing with red light, but his eyes had already become sharp.

"Little Cold, about the Night Demon, you must give me an explanation," Feng Yun said.

"Night Demon is, after all, one of my people," Feng Yun said.

Yan Beihan replied calmly, "When you didn't know about the Night Demon, I had already befriended him. So, this explanation, it's a bit inappropriate to use the word 'account' here."

Feng Yun laughed, then turned to Night Demon, "Night Demon, I have six questions for you. Answer them truthfully, and you will live."

Fang Che put down his chopsticks, "I will answer without reservation."

"Answer these six questions truthfully, and you will be spared," Feng Yun said.

A chilling killing intent slowly emanated from Feng Yun's body.

He seamlessly transformed from a gentle and elegant young master to an upper echelon with a commanding presence.

He didn't need any preamble.

The transition was instantaneous.

"Please ask, Young Master Feng," Fang Che said.

"Good. The first question, who do you belong to?" Feng Yun asked.

"I belong to the Only Righteous Sect. Initially, I was a disciple of the Heart Sect, then I joined the Incubate and Ascend to Divinity Plan, and after that, I met Yan Beihan. Up until today, I belong to the Only Righteous Sect. If you're asking about factions, then I belong to Yan Beihan's faction," Fang Che answered without hesitation.

Feng Yun had anticipated this question.

"The second question, when I first sought you out, why did you hesitate to choose a side? If I remember correctly, Yan Beihan and Chen Yin were both trying to persuade you at the time, and you hadn't decided on a camp yet.

Feng Yun said, "I asked you to find out why Mo Gan Yun is looking for me."

Fang Che calmly replied, "Mo Gan Yun asked for you after the incident. It was only later that my master informed me that you were looking for me, but at that time, he had already helped me decline."

"So, if I look for you in the future, Yin Shen Gong will continue to decline, time and time again."

Feng Yun asked, "Third question, why does Yin Shen Gong keep declining?"

"This question involves a lot. I dare not speak of it."

Fang Che said, "It involves the upper echelons of the sect, and I do not have the authority to answer this question."

Feng Yun's eyes were filled with killing intent as he spoke indifferently, "Fourth question, apart from the Night Demon, do you have another identity? What is your other identity?"

"I cannot reveal that either."

Fang Che said, "Please forgive me, Young Master Yun."

Feng Yun laughed heartily, his killing intent growing stronger, and asked, "What is your real name?"

Fang Che sighed, "I cannot say."

Feng Yun, furious, laughed mockingly, "You asked five questions, and three of them are unanswerable? Night Demon, are you toying with me?"

Fang Che's face turned pale as he explained, "Young Master Yun's five questions, the last three are essentially one question. Even including the second question, they can be considered the same question!"

Feng Yun spoke indifferently, "Since you are so uncooperative, I have no more reservations."

Yan Beihan spoke up, "I can explain this matter."

Feng Yun asked coldly, "What is your explanation, Yan?"

Yan Beihan said, "I'll have someone explain it to you."

He communicated through the Five Spirit Toads and sent a message through the Communication Jade.

Time stood still.

Feng Yun received a message through the Five Spirit Toads.

Yan Vice Commander wanted to see him.

Feng Yun immediately stood up, his demeanor respectful, and communicated through the Five Spirit Toads, taking out the Communication Jade.

His actions seemed to indicate that he had been expecting this moment with great anticipation.

On the jade, a message from Yan Nan appeared: "You're with the Night Demon?"

"Yes, Vice Commander Yan."

"Are you very dissatisfied with the Night Demon?"

"Yes, I am. I want to kill him!"

"You cannot kill him."

Yan Nan spoke calmly, "The Night Demon is my pawn. His true identity is top-secret. He is our first undercover agent within the Guardians."

Feng Yun's body trembled, and his eyes widened in realization of the weight of Yan Nan's words.

Feng Yun immediately made a request, "Vice Commander Yan, I am the Southeast Chief Commander. I need to know the Night Demon's true identity and cooperate accordingly."

"Only eleven people at headquarters know the Night Demon's true identity!"

Yan Nan calmly stated, "There are eight of us: Duan Xiaying, Sun Wutian, and Madman Spear."

The implication was clear: your status is not high enough!

This made Feng Yun even more aware of the importance of the situation.

He quickly added, "But Yin Shen Gong must know, as you need to go through them to control the Night Demon's movements."

"Yin Shen Gong is responsible for this intermediary role, but their authority is insufficient. If the intermediary role were given to me, as the Southeast Chief Commander, I could provide more perfect cooperation and help the Night Demon avoid many pitfalls, creating more achievements!"

Feng Yun made a strong request.

His intelligence was exceptional, and with one sentence, he had grasped the crux of the matter.

To help the Night Demon avoid pitfalls,

To create more achievements for the Night Demon!

Yan Nan said, "I sent you to the Southeast to take charge. One day, you will be responsible. But not now."

"Why?" Feng Yun asked.

"Because you are still Feng Yun of the Feng family," Yan Nan explained. "If you don't change this mindset, you will never be entrusted with the Night Demon's matter. Your family has too many factions, and if you were to know, the Night Demon's life would be in danger."

"If my pawn were to be destroyed by my own people, it would become a laughingstock in the world. And you, Feng Yun, are not suitable to hold this laughingstock at the moment!"

Feng Yun slowly sat down.

He had been planning to investigate the Night Demon, meet with him, and pressure him.

But his true intention was to pressure the Night Demon and have this conversation with Yan Vice Commander, thereby gaining involvement in the plan.

From the first time he pressured Yin Shen Gong to meet the Night Demon and received their hint, Feng Yun had been planning for this moment.

He never intended to deal with the Night Demon; on the contrary, his goal was to participate in the true high-level plan through the Night Demon. This was the real qualification for vengeance!

He had achieved his goal and had not guessed wrong.

He knew that when the time came to face the consequences, even Yan Beihan would be unable to resolve it, and only Yan Nan could handle this matter personally.

Everything proceeded according to plan.

But after careful and gradual progress, it had finally reached the point where Yan Nan could not turn back, and he had to face the issue head-on.
