Xiao, Song Tianmin and Han Xing were overjoyed when they saw the Arm-Swinging Monkey Clan welcoming them with the most respectful guest reception ceremony—nine bell tolls and auspicious clouds paving the way. They straightened their attire and approached.

Before they could take two steps, they saw the new clan leader of the Arm-Swinging Monkey Clan personally coming out with many clan members to greet them, which made them feel even more proud and self-satisfied.

Seeing this, Han Xing asked in surprise, "Brother Song, do you have some private relationship with the Arm-Swinging Monkey Clan?" "Of course, I have a very close personal friendship with their leader, Yuan Tong..." However, before Song Tianmin could finish his sentence, he saw the famous new leader of the Arm-Swinging Monkey Clan, Yuan Tong, not coming towards him but instead kneeling in front of Qin Feng, performing a very grand salute: "Disciple Yuan Tong greets the master!"

Upon seeing this, both Song Tianmin and Han Xing widened their eyes. The leader of the Divine Ape Island's royal clan, Yuan Tong, actually knelt in front of Qin Feng, an unknown person, in front of everyone? For a moment, both Song and Han thought they must have woken up too abruptly and were seeing things...

Qin Feng quickly helped Yuan Tong up and scolded him, "A man's knees are as precious as gold. You know my rules, don't you? Don't kneel so easily in the future." Yuan Tong scratched his head and smiled, "Disciple can't often serve by the master's side. It's only right to perform a grand salute when I finally see the master..." Hearing this, Qin Feng didn't say more and, surrounded by Yuan Tong and other ape spirits, he quickly disappeared inside.

As for Song Tianmin and Han Xing, Yuan Tong only sent a small monkey to guide them, not even giving them a second glance. This made Song Tianmin, who had just confidently claimed to have a "very close personal friendship" with Yuan Tong, feel extremely embarrassed, wishing he could dig a hole and bury himself.

Han Xing coughed and said seriously, "That Qin Feng, the Supreme Elder of the Netherworld Immortal Sect, is actually Yuan Tong's master... It seems the rumors that they have a close relationship with the Arm-Swinging Monkey Clan are not just baseless gossip to glorify themselves!" Song Tianmin's face changed colors for a while, and finally, he sighed lightly, "Indeed, we have seriously misjudged. It seems we need to elevate the treatment of the Netherworld Immortal Sect further..."

After the grand ceremony of Yuan Tong's appointment as clan leader, Qin Feng stayed on the Divine Ape Island for more than twenty days before preparing to leave. During this time, Qin Feng told Yuan Tong and Yuan Hua about their junior brother Jin Chan's situation. Both apes were extremely angry upon hearing this. However, although they are the leaders of the Arm-Swinging Monkey Clan and the Spirit Ape Clan, the real power still lies with some elders in the clan, and they cannot make unilateral decisions. The Buddha Light Temple is far away in the Eastern Victory Divine Continent, and there is no conflict of interest with the Divine Ape Island. It is basically impossible to persuade the clan elders to mobilize the clan members to rescue Jin Chan from thousands of miles away. Perhaps it will take some years for Yuan Tong and Yuan Hua to establish their own prestige within the clan and have full control over the clan before they can send troops to attack the Buddha Light Temple and rescue Jin Chan.

Therefore, Qin Feng didn't hold much hope for this and decided to focus on his own cultivation, hoping to break through to the Void Refining realm as soon as possible... Returning to the Cool Mountain's Guiyuan Peak, feeling the inadequacy of his own cultivation, Qin Feng decided to continue his secluded cultivation, vowing not to leave until he broke through to the Purple Mansion and Void Refining stages.

However, things in the world often don't go as planned. Just as Qin Feng was about to enter seclusion, a beautiful young girl with an immortal aura suddenly came to visit. It was Ye Bin, the city lord of the Ever-Night City from the extreme northern snow region.

After inviting Ye Bin to sit down for tea, Qin Feng asked in surprise, "A few days ago, my disciple Chang Geng mentioned that Fellow Daoist Ye and Senior Sister Chu came looking for me?" Ye Bin nodded, "In recent years, Fellow Daoist Chu and I have been cultivating together in a great snowy mountain, originally living in peace. However, we accidentally encountered a man named Bai Mo Daoist, who was Fellow Daoist Chu's mortal enemy from the human world. This man is highly skilled in evil arts, possesses many magical treasures, and has gathered a group of followers. Fellow Daoist Chu and I were no match for him. Later, when we heard that you had rebuilt the Netherworld Immortal Sect here, we wanted to come and seek help..."

Qin Feng looked around and asked suspiciously, "I wonder where my Senior Sister Chu is now?" Ye Bin took a deep breath and said indignantly, "After Fellow Daoist Chu and I found out you were not at the sect, we didn't want to burden the Netherworld Immortal Sect and decided to escape to the Central Continent. However, halfway there, we were intercepted by Bai Mo Daoist and his men. After a fierce battle, Fellow Daoist Chu was captured. I fought my way out and barely escaped with my life using sword escape..."

Upon hearing this, Qin Feng immediately stood up, paced back and forth for a while, and then asked Ye Bin, "What is Bai Mo Daoist's current strength?" Ye Bin replied, "Around the middle stage of Soul Fusion, but he has several followers with him, all at the early stage of Soul Fusion or late stage of Spirit Transformation. They are numerous and very troublesome..."

Ye Bin herself is also at the middle stage of Soul Fusion, with considerable strength. However, Chu Nanxing was only at the early stage of Soul Fusion, so it was normal that she couldn't withstand the numerous forces of Bai Mo Daoist. Qin Feng, on the other hand, is at the late stage of Soul Fusion. Although he couldn't defeat the likes of the Fat-Burning Monk, could he not handle a mere Bai Mo Daoist? Moreover, Chu Nanxing...
