# Chapter 2043: Intelligence Problem
The banquet prepared by the Holy Spirit Dynasty, though nominally hosted by the Holy Prince Lin Feng, was actually attended by none other than the Holy Emperor of the Holy Spirit Dynasty himself. This made everyone sense something unusual. The Holy Emperor personally receiving guests could be understood in two ways: first, he valued the visitors; second, he was applying pressure.
With the Holy Emperor personally presiding, anyone who wanted to cause trouble in the Holy Spirit Dynasty would first have to consider the Holy Emperor's attitude. From this, it was clear that the Holy Emperor of the Holy Spirit Dynasty placed great importance on Lin Feng.
The number of guests who arrived today exceeded the expectations of the Holy Spirit Dynasty. Many experts from the Qin Dynasty had come—Lin Feng had displayed the sacred power of the Qin Dynasty's ancient ancestor, a technique of boundless might, so of course they had to attend.
People from the Gu Yao Dynasty had arrived, and accompanying them were members of the Guang Han Palace. The Xi Emperor descended in person, with Jiuyou guarding him. The Nine Fairies stood side by side, appearing especially conspicuous. Behind them were three elders, unfathomably deep, all possessing terrifying strength.
Of course, besides the dynasties, there were also forces from the Ancient Saint Clans, and even some powers from other main cities of the heavens. For instance, the Ancient Saint Clan of Wang Jian had arrived, and the faction of the King Body Zhuo Qing was also present. For a moment, the vast, endless space was filled with geniuses and powerful figures standing side by side.
"Everyone, please take your seats," the Holy Emperor of the Holy Spirit Dynasty said to the crowd. The people sat down one after another, waiting quietly. The Snow Clan and the Tianci Dynasty had not yet arrived—they were the main characters of the day.
At that moment, a chill swept down from the void. Snowflakes suddenly began to fall from the sky. But the snow was not snow—it was coldness.
"The Snow Clan has arrived," the crowd thought to themselves. Then, the wind rolled, and a group of figures stepped through the void. Moments later, they appeared among the crowd, their bodies suspended in the air. Those figures draped in snow-white robes gave off an aura of arrogance and coldness. The young man standing at the very front exuded a bloodthirsty battle intent, his eyes extremely demonic, as if he might go berserk at any moment.
The people of the Tianci Dynasty had also arrived, but they stayed in the back, as if this matter had nothing to do with them.
"Where is Lin Feng?" Snow Mastiff swept his gaze over the people of the Holy Spirit Dynasty in front of him and asked coldly.
"For the Snow Clan to grace our Holy Spirit Dynasty with your presence brings great honor to our humble abode. Everyone, please take your seats," the Holy Emperor of the Holy Spirit Dynasty said with a smile, not directly answering the other's question.
"Where is Lin Feng?" Snow Mastiff's voice grew even colder, showing no respect for the Holy Emperor. He was originally a demon beast and never concealed his demonic aura. The Snow Clan indulged his temperament, allowing him to grow as he pleased. Among the younger generation of the Snow Clan, aside from the direct line, there was no other youth in the entire Snow Clan kingdom who could compare to Snow Mastiff.
"Does the Snow Clan have something to discuss with the Holy Prince of the Holy Spirit Dynasty?" the Holy Emperor remained very calm, simply looking at Snow Mastiff as he asked.
"Killing," Snow Mastiff said coldly, causing a sharp glint to flash in the eyes of everyone present. Killing. The Snow Clan actually wanted to kill Lin Feng. It seemed Lin Feng had offended the powerful Snow Clan.
The entire space suddenly fell silent because of Snow Mastiff's words. The Snow Clan had stepped into the Holy Spirit Dynasty and, in front of the Holy Emperor himself, declared their intention to kill the Holy Prince Lin Feng. This was power. The strong and ancient Snow Clan had this kind of confidence, daring to utter such arrogant words. The crowd looked at the Holy Emperor of the Holy Spirit Dynasty, seemingly waiting for his attitude. Faced with the overbearing Snow Clan, would he hand over Lin Feng?
The Holy Emperor of the Holy Spirit Dynasty had not expected things to be this serious. The King Body of the Snow Clan, accompanied by several senior experts of the clan, had crossed vast territories to reach Qi Tian Holy Capital, all for the sole purpose of killing Lin Feng.
"What if I refuse?" After a moment of silence, the Holy Emperor of the Holy Spirit Dynasty said calmly, though a faint, almost imperceptible smile still lingered at the corner of his mouth.
"Boom!" Snow Mastiff took a step forward, and instantly, a terrifying demonic aura rampaged wildly through the void.
"If Lin Feng doesn't come out, then I will slaughter the Holy Spirit Dynasty until he appears before me." A cruel smile flashed in those demonic eyes, yet it gave off an extremely cold feeling. Given Snow Mastiff's status, who would dare to touch him if he started killing within the Holy Spirit Dynasty?
The Holy Emperor of the Holy Spirit Dynasty remained silent. But at that moment, a voice came from someone sitting nearby, speaking indifferently: "Holy Emperor Ling, Lin Feng is not originally a member of your Holy Spirit Dynasty. Why do you go to such lengths to protect him? Since he has obtained the inheritance of your Holy Spirit Dynasty's ancient ancestor, just have him hand over the inheritance. There's no need to risk great offense for Lin Feng's sake. As for the remnants and inheritance of my Qin Dynasty's ancestor, I must also ask Lin Feng to return them."
"Lin Feng has acted recklessly and killed my son, the Yan Prince. Since the Snow Clan wants his life now, I will not make things difficult for the Holy Spirit Dynasty over this. However, before Lin Feng dies, the skull on his person must belong to my Tianci Dynasty," an expert from the Tianci Dynasty said, each of them expressing their stance.
"Kicking a man when he's down?"
Everyone understood. These people did not dare to directly kill Lin Feng and seize the treasures, but they were bold enough to kick him while he was down. Since Lin Feng was destined to die at the hands of the Snow Clan, the treasures on him naturally had to be shared.
"I've heard that Lin Feng also possesses the Heavenly Derivation Scripture. Since he is about to become a dead man, why not force him to hand over this ancient scripture for everyone present to share?" another person said coldly, causing the people of the Holy Spirit Dynasty to feel immense pressure.
The Snow Clan had made their move, and the other dynasties were attacking as well, making the situation for the Holy Spirit Dynasty and Lin Feng even worse.
All eyes fell on the Holy Emperor of the Holy Spirit Dynasty. A powerful pressure surged toward him, directly pressing down on him.
"Holy Emperor Ling, hand over Lin Feng."
"Lin Feng has incurred the wrath of many. Why must Holy Emperor Ling be so stubborn and provoke public anger? The consequences would be very severe."
One threatening voice after another rang out. These visitors were all borrowing the Snow Clan's momentum to pressure the Holy Spirit Dynasty into handing over Lin Feng.
"So many people want to kill me?" At that moment, a calm voice came from within the great hall. Then, the crowd saw a group of figures step out. The one at the front was none other than Lin Feng. Instantly, everyone's gaze seemed to fall entirely on Lin Feng.
"Lin Feng!"
The eyes of many flashed with cold light. Lin Feng actually dared to come out.
Not only did Lin Feng dare to come out, but he also sat down very calmly. The old Daoist sat beside him, facing everyone with extreme composure. Especially that old Daoist, who even chanted a "Boundless Heavenly Venerable," causing the crowd to roll their eyes.
But wherever these people came from, the group of old fellows behind Lin Feng and the old Daoist were all very terrifying. Their eyes were slightly closed, and they stood casually, yet they gave off an unfathomable feeling.
"So you are Lin Feng." Snow Mastiff's gaze fell on Lin Feng. Instantly, an extremely demonic aura spread out. The surrounding void seemed to stir up a storm, as if about to reveal bloodthirsty fangs.
"Where is Xue Linglong?" Snow Mastiff asked coldly.
Lin Feng glanced indifferently at Snow Mastiff, who was looking down on him. Meeting those unrestrained, demonic eyes, Lin Feng slowly looked away, ignoring him.
Snow Mastiff's expression became quite interesting. He let out a low, guttural roar, and his demonic aura grew even denser.
"Whoosh!" Snow Mastiff's figure suddenly turned into an afterimage, charging toward Lin Feng at a speed that created illusions.
At that moment, an old man behind Lin Feng suddenly opened his eyes. Countless rays of light seemed to shoot out toward the void simultaneously. The entire space seemed to twist. He let out a cold snort, and the void trembled. A terrifying wave of power exploded in the air. Snow Mastiff's body shot backward. At the same time, the experts of the Snow Clan suddenly stepped forward, their terrifying auras sweeping across heaven and earth. Everyone felt an bone-chilling coldness.
"Do you know what you're doing?" An elder of the Snow Clan narrowed his eyes, staring at the group behind Lin Feng.
That old man's eyes closed again, but the old Daoist waved his whisk and said calmly, "Boundless Heavenly Venerable."
"Hmm?" The elder stared at the old Daoist Yan Di, a cold light flashing in his eyes.
"Sir, I see that you demon beasts have been beasts for too long, and something has gone wrong here. If you are willing to become demon beasts under my command, I would be happy to help you open your spiritual wisdom, so you don't embarrass the demon race here." The old Daoist pointed at his head and said to the experts in front of him. The Snow Clan members all froze. Not only the Snow Clan, but even the surrounding experts were stunned. They looked at this old Daoist, wondering which reckless old Daoist was so ignorant of death as to insult the Snow Clan by saying their heads had problems?
Become demon beasts under his command? Help the Snow Clan open their spiritual wisdom?
"What did you say?" The Snow Clan expert said coldly, as if feeling this was unreal. The old Daoist's words were already a blatant insult to their Snow Clan.
"Boundless Heavenly Venerable. I didn't expect that not only are your spiritual wisdoms unopened, but you also don't understand human speech. It seems I need to consider whether to accept you or not." The old Daoist sighed.
"How dare you!" The elder roared. Instantly, the void seemed to turn into a world of ice and snow. The original great hall seemed to disappear.
"Are you looking for death?"
"Master, their people are not as many as ours, so why do they still say we are looking for death?" The little Daoist, with a dark face, stepped forward and asked the old Daoist for guidance.
"They think that only they can kill us, and we don't dare to fight back," the old Daoist patiently explained.
"Oh. They all want to kill us, so why would they still think we don't dare to fight back?" The little Daoist showed a confused expression.
"Didn't I just say it? There's a problem here. Next time, you need to listen more carefully to what I say." The old Daoist pointed at the little Daoist's head and said. The little Daoist finally showed a look of understanding, while the faces of the Snow Clan experts had already turned extremely ugly!
