Chapter 6132: The Chu Clan Alliance

“The world of cultivation is more chaotic than ever, and there’s no saying what will happen in the future. I think an alliance is a good thing.” Chu Feng supported their decision.

The crowd breathed a sigh of relief. They respected Chu Feng’s view, and they would be put in a spot if Chu Feng didn’t support it.

“It’s settled then. Let’s come up with a name for our alliance. Any suggestions?” Long Mucheng looked at the crowd.

The clans looked at their respective leaders.

The Totem Dragon Clan’s Clan Chief, Daoist First Dragon, and the others pondered.

“I have a suggestion. We don’t have enough time to know each other, and it’s only because of Chu Feng that we can establish trust so quickly. To put it bluntly, the one we trust is Chu Feng. So, I recommend naming our alliance the ‘Chu Clan Alliance’,” Long Mucheng said.

Chu Feng was taken aback.

It was true that he was the one who brought them together, but it didn’t seem appropriate to name their alliance after his clan. Neither his standing nor strength was befitting of that.

But before Chu Feng could say a word, the Totem Dragon Clan’s Clan Chief and elders, the Dragon Breath Clan, and the Totem Nine Daoists expressed their approval. There was huge support for Long Mucheng’s recommendation.

“Elders, you mustn’t. This name isn’t appropriate,” Chu Feng exclaimed.

“I find it very appropriate. What do the others think?” Long Mucheng looked at the crowd.

“We agree!”

“I support it!”

“Let’s go with this.”

With overwhelming support for the name, especially from powerful and influential figures like the Totem Dragon Clan’s Clan Chief, Daoist First Dragon, and Daoist Second Dragon.

“The majority has spoken. It’s settled,” Long Mucheng declared. She glanced at Chu Feng with a hint of glee.

Even so, Chu Feng still found it inappropriate.

“Chu Feng, I don’t think there’s a problem with the name,” Eggy said. “You are the one who brought them together. If not for you, they couldn’t have established the trust required to forge this alliance. If conflict breaks out among them in the future, you will have to mediate and keep them together. You are vital to this alliance.

“Furthermore, their potential is limited. It’s only a matter of time before you overtake them, similar to how you overtook Daoist Ninth Dragon and the others. When the time comes, their name, the Chu Clan Alliance, will become their greatest backing.

“Those people aren’t fools. They understand the significance of the name, especially Long Mucheng. My guess is they discussed it beforehand before raising it here. That being said, they probably suggested this name hoping it can help you in your current predicament too.

“You should stop standing on ceremony and accept the name. You might be weaker than them now, but you’ll eventually overtake them. What you’re rejecting now isn’t just the name but their chance to stake their future on you.”

Eggy’s words left Chu Feng with no more excuses. He understood the significance of the name too, just that he felt embarrassed.

He looked at the crowd and saw that they were all smiling from the bottom of their hearts. He didn’t want to pull down the mood, but he still had to ask, “Elders, what do you plan to do from now on?”

“We’ll first move our forces in the Totem Galaxy before announcing our alliance. That way, even the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion will think twice before going against us unless they are that confident of dealing with us,” Long Mucheng said.

“I suggest not announcing the alliance first,” Chu Feng said.

“Why?” Long Mucheng and the others were surprised.

“Young friend Chu Feng, you need not be worried about us. While we are partly doing this to support you, this is also beneficial to us,” the Totem Dragon Clan’s Clan Chief said.

But Chu Feng shook his head. “That’s not what I mean. I just think it is more beneficial to conceal our secret hand during such tumultuous times. Announcing the alliance will bring unwanted attention to us, but keeping it a secret may give us more options to deal with our enemies.”

The crowd was taken aback.

They thought that Chu Feng didn’t want them to reveal the alliance to avoid implicating them in his grudges, but his explanation made perfect sense.

“Dragon Breath Clan’s Clan Chief, what do you think?” the Totem Dragon Clan’s Clan Chief asked Long Mucheng.

“Totem Dragon Clan’s Clan Chief, I am not the Dragon Breath Clan’s Clan Chief. I’m merely a temporary representative,” Long Mucheng replied.

“A clan’s leader is its clan chief, and you have the strength to take the position. I don’t know the intricacies within your clan, but I will address you as such” the Totem Dragon Clan’s Clan Chief said.

Long Mucheng didn’t bother explaining the matter.

The Dragon Breath Clan did not have an official clan chief at the moment, but the clansmen acknowledged her as their leader. They had been wanting to make the clan chief but she refused.

“I agree with Chu Feng. It’s more advantageous for us to keep the alliance a secret for the time being,” Long Mucheng said.

“Indeed.”

The others nodded in agreement.

“Speaking of which, Chu Feng,” Long Mucheng leaned closer to Chu Feng and whispered, “Ouyang Kongyu is here too. Can you convince him to join us? It’ll be incredible if our alliance has a Heavenly Dragon World Spiritist.”

She pointed at one of the side halls as she spoke.

Creak.

Just then, the side hall opened and Ouyang Kongyu’s voice echoed from within, “Young friend Chu Feng, come here for a moment.”

Chu Feng entered the side palace.

Ouyang Kongyu was standing behind the door, and he closed it after Chu Feng entered.

“I can’t join the alliance. I hope you understand,” Ouyang Kongyu said.

“Don’t say that, elder. It’s your freedom to choose whether to join the alliance or not, not to mention I owe you a huge debt for supporting me in Awakening Saint Realm,” Chu Feng replied.

“I came here hoping to return the favor my disciple owes you, but I hardly helped at all. It looks like Yunqing will have to return the debt by himself,” Ouyang Kongyu said.

“Brother Bai and I are brothers. It’s only right for us to support each other in times of adversity. He doesn’t owe me anything,” Chu Feng said.

“You might not feel that he owes you anything, but he feels that way. That being said, I’m relieved to see how much you care for your friends. It is Yunqing’s blessing to have a brother like you. You are an incredible person,” Ouyang Kongyu said as he patted Chu Feng’s shoulder. “I believe your mother will be proud of you.”

“Elder, you... Is there something you would like to say?”

Chu Feng sensed something was off. It felt like Ouyang Kongyu was holding back his words.

Ouyang Kongyu shook his head with a smile and said, “Farewell, young friend Chu Feng.”

He took his leave.

The crowd saw him off, but Chu Feng couldn’t help but notice the direction he was heading. Even though Ouyang Kongyu denied it, Chu Feng sensed that he had something to say but decided not to say it.

“Chu Feng.” Huahua sent a voice transmission to Chu Feng. “My master is here too. He’s waiting for you outside. It’s regarding your mother’s prophecy.”
