Chapter 28
Breaking Through to Da Dou Shi
"What did you say?"
Hearing Shen Feng's words, the old man was momentarily stunned.
"Grandfather, I know you were unwilling when you failed to seize the position of Clan Leader back then." Shen Feng looked straight into the old man's eyes, his tone extremely serious: "What if I gave you another chance to be the Clan Leader?"
"What nonsense are you talking about, brat?" The old man looked at Shen Feng in shock, feeling that his grandson must be going mad. "The position of Clan Leader, is that something a kid like you can decide? Do you think that because you have Yun Yun's favor, you can control the Mi Te Er Clan? Wait until you become the Sect Leader of the Yunlan Sect before saying such things."
The old man only considered Shen Feng's words as a delusion. Although Shen Feng was Yun Yun's beloved disciple and held a high status in the Yunlan Sect, he ultimately did not hold real power and could not sway the great authority of the Mi Te Er Clan.
"Grandfather, do you still remember the Ice Emperor, Hai Bo Dong?" Shen Feng knew that if he didn't provide solid evidence, he couldn't convince the old man, so he directly mentioned Hai Bo Dong.
"Nonsense!" The old man said loudly: "That is the Grand Elder of my Mi Te Er Clan, how could I forget. Back then, I even saw the old gentleman with my own eyes." Speaking to this point, he sighed: "If not for the Ice Emperor's disappearance, how could my Mi Te Er Clan have fallen into this situation, having to rely on political marriages to consolidate our status."
Back then, the Ice Emperor Hai Bo Dong's reputation resounded throughout the Jia Ma Empire, and no one dared to touch the Mi Te Er Clan. But since he vanished, the clan had no powerful expert to oversee it, their business was suppressed, and their strength gradually weakened. These past years were all thanks to Mi Te Er Teng Shan stepping into the Dou Wang realm to barely maintain their position.
"Grandfather, what if I said I could find the Ice Emperor and bring him back?"
The old man's eyes widened: "What is wrong with you today, brat? When Senior Ice Emperor went missing, you weren't even born yet! Do you know where he is?"
The old man's disbelief was natural, because over the years, the clan had deployed a massive information network and still heard nothing. For Shen Feng to say he could bring the person back sounded too far-fetched.
"Grandfather, I know that no matter how much I say, you won't believe me. Within three months, I will definitely bring Senior Ice Emperor back to the clan. I only ask you one thing: if you have Senior Ice Emperor's support, are you willing to be the Clan Leader?"
The old man gave him a look: "Nonsense, if I have Senior Ice Emperor's support, of course I am willing." Failing against Mi Te Er Teng Shan back then had always been a thorn in the old man's heart. But when Teng Shan broke through to Dou Wang, the old man had to accept it, because this world ultimately respects the strong.
"Then that's good... Grandfather, just prepare to take over the position of Clan Leader."
After saying this, Shen Feng asked for permission to leave to return to the Yunlan Sect for seclusion. Although the old man was annoyed that his grandson kept talking about impossible things, he still saw him to the door, not forgetting to remind him to cultivate well because the sect competition was coming up.
Returning to the Yunlan Sect, Shen Feng began the breakthrough process. In his room, he gripped a Rank 4 monster core, madly circulating the Devouring Source Art. After some time, a diamond-shaped silver crystal about the size of a thumb gradually formed and floated at the center of the Qi vortex within his body.
This was the Dou Star—the hallmark of a Da Dou Shi expert. When the Dou Star fully condensed, Shen Feng opened his eyes, a flash of essence light flickering within.
"Finally broke through to Da Dou Shi..."
Sensing the overflowing source of power, Shen Feng smiled with satisfaction. He stepped out into the courtyard and threw a punch at a large blue stone. An explosion rang out, and the stone was pierced with a large hole, cracks spreading out. He then flicked his finger, and a streak of silver kình khí shot out like an arrow, creating a deep pit in the ground.
"Dou Qi externalization." Shen Feng laughed softly. At this level, Dou Qi could already leave the body, no longer limited by the physical frame, providing a massive advantage in combat.
