# Chapter 1244: Returning

On the vast land of the Eight Wastelands Realm, news spread at a terrifying speed. The earth-shattering events that occurred at the Wen Family's Old Ancestor's six hundredth birthday celebration spread like wildfire to every corner of the Eight Wastelands Realm.

Sword City and Heavenly Void Ancient City were both among the four great ancient cities of the Central Wasteland, so the news naturally reached them the fastest. In the large and small taverns of Sword City, everyone was discussing the projection of Heavenly Void Ancient City and the matter of Skyless Sword Emperor's sword. It was too shocking—the Wen Family had opened Heavenly Void Ancient City and teleported their clan's experts to an extremely remote location. Clearly, there might be some treasure or secret realm there.

Another piece of news was that Lin Feng, the one who had suddenly been recognized as the Young Master of the Sword Pavilion, actually controlled Skyless Sword Emperor's sword. This also led countless people to begin speculating about what secrets lay between Lin Feng and the Sword Pavilion. Even more shocking was that Lin Feng had used the Sword Emperor's sword to slay a Sovereign Lord level existence, killed Bai Qiuluo, and killed the Martial Emperor bloodline bearer Qitian Saint. He looked down on everything, defying all laws and rules.

For the Sword Pavilion itself, this news was extremely shocking and exciting. The ancestor's sword had seized Lin Feng's physical body, and the life within the sword had replaced Lin Feng. But the sword's power remained, and the ancestor's sword still existed. No wonder the Young Master didn't want them to follow—with the sword's power being so terrifying, what use would they be? Who could stop him?

Moreover, even without relying on the ancestor's sword, the Young Master had still defeated Qitian Saint. What were the Ten Great Prodigies before the Young Master? Now, the Young Master, who had once followed the Sword Emperor ancestor, would surely dominate the Eight Wastelands Realm in the future and bring back the former glory of their Sword Pavilion.

On this day, several figures appeared outside the Sword Pavilion. The one at the lead was none other than Lin Feng.

Lin Feng did not enter the Sword Pavilion, but the experts inside quickly came out one after another, bowing to Lin Feng with utmost respect.

"Young Master, please enter the Sword Pavilion!" The old man leading the Sword Pavilion was a terrifying sword cultivator at the Sovereign Lord level. He spoke respectfully to Lin Feng.

"No need. I came to have you do one thing!" Lin Feng's expression was calm, his entire body releasing an extremely sharp sword aura. Before the people of the Sword Pavilion, he maintained an overbearing and domineering presence, lofty and superior, because before them, he was not Lin Feng—he was the Skyless Sword itself.

"Young Master, please give your orders!" The Sword Pavilion person said respectfully.

"I will give you a general coordinate. There is a place called the Snow Domain, within which is a country called Snow Moon Kingdom. The Wen Family people have gone there. You are to dispatch the strongest formation of the Sword Pavilion to go to Snow Moon Kingdom, scatter and blend in, and secretly station there. Do not attract anyone else's attention. Without my orders, unless others attack you, you are not to use force. Understand?"

The Sword Pavilion Sovereign Lord's eyes flickered. He naturally understood Lin Feng's words, but he was somewhat puzzled about Lin Feng's intentions. Also, how did the Young Master know that the projection was a place called Snow Moon Kingdom?

"Young Master, I understand!" Although confused in his heart, he still replied respectfully. Since the Young Master had given the order, he naturally had to give it his all.

"I will transmit the coordinates and a map to you through divine thought!" Lin Feng spoke indifferently, then his divine thought power transformed into a small sword, imprinting some memories into the other's brow. Back at the Qian Domain Divine Palace, he had once obtained a vast map, which included markings of the Eight Wastelands Realm. This place was too vast, but the map coordinates of the Eight Wastelands Realm would not mark small places like the Qian Domain or Snow Domain. However, with the memories Lin Feng transmitted, the Sword Pavilion should be able to easily find Snow Moon Kingdom.

"Alright, remember to go as quickly as possible. After you arrive, just wait for my news!" Lin Feng commanded in a tone of authority, then the great sword shot into the clouds, speeding toward the Northern Wasteland.

To return to Snow Moon Kingdom, he would first have to go back to the Northern Wasteland, then cross the Wasteland Sea.

"Yuexin, I need to cross a vast distance to return to my homeland. Will you come with me or stay in the Eight Wastelands Realm?" In the void, Lin Feng asked Qiu Yuexin.

Qiu Yuexin's beautiful eyes flickered, then she spoke: "I'll listen to you. I won't go with you—I'll return to the Qiu Family!"

"Alright, go home for a while and spend time with your parents. That way, your emotionless intent will fade much more. Remember, don't cultivate that emotionless technique anymore!" Lin Feng revealed a slight smile, cupping Qiu Yuexin's cheek as he spoke. This was his advice to her. After all, going to Snow Moon Kingdom was not an easy matter—the journey alone would take a long time, and they would have to cross the Wasteland Sea. When they arrived at Snow Moon, they would face many powerful enemies. It wasn't suitable for Qiu Yuexin to follow him. Returning home to be with her parents would greatly weaken her emotionless intent. She had to overcome that obsession with emotionlessness.

After discussing it, Lin Feng sent Qiu Yuexin back to the Qiu Family, then the great sword headed straight toward the Heavenly Terrace.

At the Heavenly Terrace, on the Ninth Heaven, Lin Feng opened the palace doors. Immediately, a strong immortal spiritual energy rushed toward him, mixed with a hint of icy cold snow intent, as if it would freeze a person stiff.

At this moment, above the palace, brilliant Dao patterns shone dazzlingly, allowing one to better comprehend the Dao. Cultivating here would yield twice the results with half the effort. A beautiful fairy in white, pure as snow, sat cross-legged on a pure golden lotus. It possessed the great Dao principle of "Dao gives birth to one, one gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, three gives birth to all things." Moreover, at this moment, a layer of pure white snow adhered to the golden lotus. Immortal spiritual energy permeated the void, enveloping Meng Qing's ethereal figure, making her look like a celestial maiden of the Nine Heavens, one who could only be admired from afar but not profaned.

"Meng Qing has reached a critical moment in her cultivation!" Lin Feng murmured to himself. Now, Meng Qing should probably be charging toward the Sovereign Martial Realm.

As a Snow Linglong, Meng Qing was a fairy among foxes, possessing an extremely precious bloodline. Her cultivation talent was terrifying—this was a gift from heaven. Just like those legendary fearsome demon beasts, true demon dragons and qilins—some of them were born as Demon Kings, or even Demon Sovereigns. This kind of talent was something human martial cultivators could only envy.

Therefore, the Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress, which only cultivated techniques to simulate demon dragons, was already extremely powerful, achieving terrifying levels of physical strength and defense.

Looking at the fairy-like figure, a gentle smile appeared in Lin Feng's eyes. He slowly withdrew from the palace, quietly closing the palace doors.

"Perhaps by the time I return from Snow Moon, Meng Qing will already be at the Sovereign Martial Realm." Lin Feng smiled, thinking to himself. He couldn't bear to wake Meng Qing from her cultivation. Everything Meng Qing did was for him. In his heart, besides deep love, there was also a faint sense of indebtedness. Such a perfect fairy deeply loved him, and so unreservedly, which made him feel a slight guilt.

"After the Snow Moon matter is finished, I will return." Lin Feng whispered softly to the palace, then his body rose into the air. The great sword shot into the sky, and Lin Feng stepped onto it, rushing up into the clouds.

Qi Jiaojiao was also on the great sword. She had been kept by Lin Feng's side all along, silent, staring coldly at Lin Feng. But Lin Feng couldn't be bothered with her. With Qi Jiaojiao's strength, she posed no threat to him.

"Snow Moon Kingdom. It seems you are from Snow Moon Kingdom. There must be your family and friends there." At this moment, in the sky, Qi Jiaojiao spoke coldly to Lin Feng, her eyes icy.

Lin Feng's gaze swept over lightly, landing on her, and asked calmly: "What do you want to say?"

"You keep me by your side, yet you don't dare to let me die. If I die, the Qi Family will know immediately. But if you don't kill me, I will know where your family and friends are, and your secrets. When the time comes... you won't regret it too late?" Qi Jiaojiao threatened.

A faint smile appeared at the corner of Lin Feng's mouth as he looked at Qi Jiaojiao with particular interest. He laughed: "Do you think you still have a chance to leave my side?"

"You..." Qi Jiaojiao's expression stiffened. This crazy bastard—did he want to imprison her by his side for life?

Thinking of this, Qi Jiaojiao's heart panicked. She simply couldn't imagine having to face an enemy for decades, or even centuries. What a terrifying thing that would be.

"Before I have the ability to destroy a Martial Emperor clan, don't think about leaving my side. It just so happens that I need someone to take care of me!" Lin Feng said indifferently, causing the coldness in Qi Jiaojiao's beautiful eyes to deepen. Take care of Lin Feng?

"Of course, if you don't behave, I do have a sacred artifact on me for imprisoning demon beasts. I wouldn't mind throwing you in there!"

Lin Feng's words came out again, and Qi Jiaojiao's beautiful eyes froze once more. A place for imprisoning demon beasts!
