Chapter 1217: Chapter 1215: Obtaining Ningxin Grass (Four More Chapters)

"Duanmu Brother, you don’t have to be so polite!"

Xiao Yifeng said calmly.

"As a descendant of the Duanmu Clan, you must possess great strength. Your current strength is still insufficient. Take this Spirit Fruit to consume; it can help your strength break through once again."

Duanmu Shu took out a Spirit Fruit emanating dense energy and handed it to Duanmu Qingyun.

"Second Grade Spirit Fruit!"

Xiao Yifeng looked at the Spirit Fruit, a flash of surprise crossing his eyes – this Spirit Fruit had the same aura as the one he obtained in Tian Mountain’s Secret Realm.

Clearly, it was also a Second Grade Spirit Fruit. Casually taking out a Second Grade Spirit Fruit, this Duanmu Shu is truly not simple.

"Thank you very much, Great Grandfather. However, Great Grandfather, I fear that the Duanmu Clan Great Elder might harm my father, we..."

"Don’t worry, nothing will happen to your father. Go ahead and use it with peace of mind!"

Before Duanmu Qingyun could finish speaking, Duanmu Shu directly responded.

Hearing Duanmu Shu say this, Duanmu Qingyun did not say anything more and immediately sat down to consume the Spirit Fruit and started cultivating.

"Elder, I would like to know where is this place?"

Xiao Yifeng, looking at Duanmu Shu, couldn’t help but ask. His x-ray vision was completely restricted by a mysterious force here, unable to probe around.

"This is the secret land of the Duanmu Clan!"

Duanmu Shu spoke.

"This is the Secret Realm of the Duanmu Clan?"

A spark of excitement flashed in Xiao Yifeng’s eyes.

"Correct, is there a problem?"

Duanmu Shu said calmly.

"Then, elder, have you seen Ningxin Grass?"

Xiao Yifeng looked at Duanmu Shu excitedly.

"You need Ningxin Grass?"

Duanmu Shu’s gaze fixed on Xiao Yifeng.

"Yes, my woman’s heart meridians were shattered and she is in a critical condition. I urgently need this Ningxin Grass for treatment. I came to the Duanmu Clan also for the Ningxin Grass."

Xiao Yifeng quickly said.

"I see!"

Duanmu Shu said, then with a wave of his hand, a green, vibrant plant appeared in his hand.

"This is..."

Xiao Yifeng looked hesitantly at the plant.

"This is the Ningxin Grass that can restore someone’s heart meridians, a very rare and precious Spiritual Medicine!"

Duanmu Shu said.

"This is the Ningxin Grass?"

Xiao Yifeng’s expression hardened, he looked up at Duanmu Shu and said, "Please bestow me this Ningxin Grass, elder. You may impose any condition."

"You have already acquired the Eight Mecha Lords I created, yet you still want this Ningxin Grass – you are indeed quite greedy."

Duanmu Shu said with a light smile.

"I can return those Eight Mecha Lords to you, I just need this Ningxin Grass!"

Xiao Yifeng said straightforwardly to Duanmu Shu.

"No need, since you’ve obtained those Eight Mecha Lords, they are yours to keep. I will not take them back. As for the Ningxin Grass, I don’t have much use for it. Considering the favor you did for that young man, I’ll give it to you."

Duanmu Shu waved his hand, and the Ningxin Grass landed in Xiao Yifeng’s hand, who carefully placed it into the Asura Ring, finally heaving a great sigh of relief.

The Ningxin Grass had finally been obtained, and Yan Ruyu could be saved, but he never expected to acquire it in this manner.

All this seemed to be thanks to Duanmu Fei; without him, Xiao Yifeng would not have gotten the Eight Mecha Lords, nor met Duanmu Shu, nor would he have obtained the Ningxin Grass so effortlessly.

"Thank you, Elder Duanmu!"

Xiao Yifeng looked at Duanmu Shu with a grateful expression.

"No need to be so polite, it’s just a mere Ningxin Grass!"

Duanmu Shu said nonchalantly.

The next day, a new day arrived, and within this valley, the members of the Duanmu Clan began another day of normal life.

In the great hall of the Duanmu Clan, Duanmu Yang was sitting and enjoying tea when suddenly Duanmu Yunlei rushed in with a look of urgency.

"Father, something terrible has happened!"

Duanmu Yunlei said urgently to Duanmu Yang.

"What has happened, Yunlei?"

Duanmu Yang held a puzzled expression as he asked Duanmu Yunlei.

"Big brother and Mr. Xiao have both disappeared!"

Duanmu Yunlei quickly explained.

"What? Disappeared, what do you mean? Where have they gone?"

Duanmu Yang suddenly put down his teacup with a stern expression.

"I don’t know. I have searched the entire Duanmu Clan and haven’t found any trace of them. I also asked the guards, and neither of them left the Duanmu Clan; they just suddenly vanished."

Duanmu Yunlei spoke, then looked at Duanmu Yang and whispered, "Father, could something have happened to big brother and Mr. Xiao?"

"They were in the Duanmu Clan, what could possibly happen?"

Duanmu Yang spoke with a somber expression.

"Clan Leader, no need to fret over it; they both are already dead."

A cold voice rang out as a group of people walked in; leading them was Duanmu Hai, the Duanmu Clan Great Elder.

Accompanying him were Duanmu Fei and a large number of elders from the Duanmu Clan, each a high-level expert in the Celestial Beings Realm Late Stage or above.

The voice was indeed from Duanmu Hai, his eyes now glaring with an intense glow as he gazed at Duanmu Yang.

"Great Elder, what do you mean by your earlier words? And why have you brought these elders here? Is there something you need?"

Duanmu Yang solemnly asked Duanmu Hai.

"Last night, Duanmu Qingyun brought a man and trespassed into the Secret Realm without permission. To ensure the security of the Secret Realm, I activated the Eight Trigrams Mecha Array, and both of them entered into the formation; I fear they are long dead without a whole corpse by now."

Duanmu Hai spoke indifferently.

"What? Great Elder, you... you actually did this?"

Duanmu Yang stared at Duanmu Hai in disbelief, his face growing uglier by the second, and Duanmu Yunlei’s body trembled, her face turning ashen as she continuously stepped back.

"Clan Leader, Duanmu Qingyun flagrantly violated the clan rules by bringing an outsider to breach the Secret Realm. This matter is extremely severe. As Duanmu Qingyun’s father, and since you agreed to let the outsider stay in the Duanmu Clan, don’t you think you should give some explanation regarding this matter?"

One of the Duanmu Clan elders directly said to Duanmu Yang.

"Exactly, Clan Leader, you must give us an explanation for this matter."

The other elders spoke in unison, their tone showing no respect towards Duanmu Yang, while Duanmu Hai’s eyes flickered with an odd gleam.

Duanmu Yang glanced over the group of elders and said to Duanmu Hai, "Great Elder truly has good tactics, completely winning over these elders; it looks like you had this planned all along!"

Duanmu Yang spoke.

"Clan Leader, what are you implying? The elders are merely expressing their opinions, after all, trespassing in the Secret Realm is a grave offense, and it must be dealt with severely. This incident is also related to you, Clan Leader, so we have come today to settle this matter with you,"

Duanmu Hai stated calmly.

PS: I just returned home yesterday noon and needed to plot the story outline, so there were only three Chapters yesterday. Apologies, but today we will resume normal updates of six-plus Chapters per day, and I will also catch up on the twenty-two Chapters I owe this month; starting today with four additional Chapters!
