"What is this?"
"Such a terrifying magical beast aura."
"Could it be that she's a magical beast?"
All of the Ye Family members present were shocked as they looked at Feng Qing'er.
They never imagined that such a beautiful woman could possess such terrifying strength, that she actually had the "cultivation level" of a Douzong, and was not at all inferior to the Fourth Elder.
But their auras were not on the same level at all.
The auras of the Fourth Elder and Feng Qing'er were as different as heaven and earth.
As the bloodline of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan was aroused, Feng Qing'er's true strength was much more formidable than that of an average One-Star Dou Zong.
"It's a Heavenly Demon Phoenix!"
"Could she be Feng Qing'er from the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan?"
Everyone drew a sharp breath of cold air.
The Ye Family had managed to establish themselves in the Central Plains for so many years, and although they had fallen into decline, they still had some knowledge.
It didn't take long for some to recognize the identity of Feng Qing'er from the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan.
The name Feng Qing'er of the Feng Lei Pavilion also had some fame in the Central Plains, so these people quickly understood her identity.
Feng Lei Pavilion, Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan!
Both identities were more distinguished than the other.
Although Feng Lei Pavilion was not as prominent as the Pill Tower, it was still one of the four great pavilions, with terrifying strength; at the very least, Feng Lei Pavilion was an entity the Ye Family could not afford to provoke.
And the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan was an existence beyond the imagination of the Ye Family. This magical beast family could even stand alone against the Pill Tower. The Taixu Ancient Dragon being the only slightly more prestigious than the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, the latter boasted at least a few Dou Zun experts.
Even if Feng Qing'er couldn't represent the entire Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, she was already an individual they needed to look up to.
Being a core disciple of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, this kind of identity was no longer something that the Ye Family could afford to offend.
The Ye Family, even as an alchemy family, absolutely could not afford to offend such a magical beast family.
Let alone the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, even the lesser magical beast families that were affiliated with them were entities the Ye Family couldn't afford to offend.
"When did Xin Lan get to know such one of Heaven's Proud Daughters!"
"Feng Qing'er, even on our side, is an extremely famous talent. It's said that Feng Qing'er is also a core disciple cultivated by the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, and in the Feng Lei Pavilion, she's akin to a young pavilion master!"
"Good heavens. I've only heard of Feng Qing'er's achievements before, but never thought there'd be a day when I could actually see her in person!"
"She's so beautiful, Feng Qing'er is my goddess."
The younger generation of the Ye Family all admired Feng Qing'er from below.
In the Continent, someone like Feng Qing'er, one of Heaven's Proud Daughters, would ordinarily be someone they could never even hope to meet.
And now, having the chance to behold her beauty, they were all ecstatic.
Feng Qing'er, with her Heavenly Demon Phoenix bloodline released, was dressed in a colorful dress, her eyes utterly enchanting.
Upon seeing the Ye Family's astonished faces, her own face remained completely impassive.
She was more eager to receive praise from Xu Ran; the adulation of others meant nothing to her.
"Feng Qing'er!"
"Why didn't Xin Lan tell us that she knew such a talent famous throughout the Continent? Had we known, we should have treated this esteemed guest from the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan properly."
"Feng Lei Pavilion is also an extremely powerful force. If we can get help from the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan and Feng Lei Pavilion, our Ye Family could have a better time. Of course, we still need to form a marriage alliance with the Cao Family, otherwise, we can't keep the Elder seat at the Pill Tower."
To keep the Elder seat at the Pill Tower, our family needs an outstanding young Alchemist to achieve good results at the Alchemist Conference.
If we form a marriage alliance with the Cao Family, that young man from the Cao Family can represent the Ye Family in competition and secure a good ranking, which will naturally allow the Ye Family to maintain our status within the Pill Tower.
However, even if Feng Qing'er can't help them in this regard at the Pill Tower, such a level of talent is still someone we need to attract. The Cao Family has become so powerful exactly because they have the support of many forces, and our Ye Family needs to build good relations with major powers as well.
At this moment, the Fourth Elder was completely at a loss when faced with Feng Qing'er's attack.
Under Feng Qing'er's sonic attack, he endured tremendous pressure, only able to constantly use his Dou Qi to form barriers to resist the terrifying sonic attack.
As the Dou Qi rapidly drained, the Fourth Elder finally could no longer withstand it.
With Feng Qing'er once again activating the Holy Image Demon Phoenix Bell, it instantly unleashed even more astonishing lethality. The Fourth Elder's body was sent flying like a kite with its string cut, blown out of the hall, followed closely by a mouthful of scarlet blood spraying out.
At this point, his body had suffered such a shock that his veins and arteries were severed and his internal organs had sustained severe damage.
Even with proper rest and recuperation later on, such a severe injury would leave hidden ailments.
When Feng Qing'er took action, she naturally did not show any mercy.
Feng Qing'er knew about the relationship between Xu Ran and Xin Lan, and she was concerned that Xu Ran would be considerate of the relationship between this Elder and Xin Lan, which is why she offered to take action herself. She didn't care who this person was.
A Dou Zong from a mere small family, daring to be so disrespectful to Lord Xu Ran.
In her eyes, this was extremely laughable.
A common genius like herself, yet these people from the Ye Family held her in such awe. Yet a true powerhouse was not taken seriously by the Ye Family.
It was at this time that Feng Qing'er understood why the Ye Family had declined to this state. In the Central Plains, a place full of strong individuals, not to have even this basic level of judgment, was truly laughable.
"Fourth Elder,"
At the doorway, two Elders rushed to examine the Fourth Elder's injuries.
Even with the Fourth Elder beaten so badly, the Ye Family had no intention of pursuing the matter.
"May I ask if you are Feng Qing'er from Feng Lei Pavilion?" the Elder in green robes asked, staring intently at Feng Qing'er.
"I am Feng Qing'er,"
Feng Qing'er replied indifferently. Feng Lei Pavilion had already been destroyed by Xu Ran, but the Ye Family had not yet received this news.
"I fail to recognize a great person when I see one. I did not know that Miss Feng was visiting, and for any lack of courtesies, I beg Miss Feng's forgiveness," the Elder in green robes said, lowering his stance very much. In front of the towering presence of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, the Ye Family dared not make any offenses.
"I'm just following Lord Xu Ran here. I'm not at all interested in your Ye Family," Feng Qing'er shook her head and obediently walked behind Xu Ran, standing behind him like a maid.
Lord Xu Ran?
Previously, the people of the Ye Family hadn't noticed Feng Qing'er's great respect towards Xu Ran.
But now, they had heard it with their own ears.
Could it be that Feng Qing'er of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan held this young man in such high esteem?
Such a genius like Feng Qing'er, so humble in front of this young man, what did that imply?
At this time, the complexion of all the Elders from the Ye Family turned pale, and the Elder in green robes even trembled and almost fell to the ground.
Now, they realized how foolish they had been.
If even Feng Qing'er held this person in such high regard, it was enough to show that this person's identity was even more noble and mysterious than Feng Qing'er's. And they had dared to be disrespectful to this person; wasn't that seeking death?
And it seemed that they had just mocked this noble person?
