Chapter 118 The New Sect Leader Qiao Feng Sets Off at Sea After Completing His Duties
After returning to Lingjiu Palace, Ling Feng went to find Xiaoyaozi without stopping.
When he saw Xiaoyaozi, he couldn't help but ask:
"Grandmaster, are you really planning to set sail so soon? The Free and Unfettered Sect has only just begun to get on the right track!"
Xiaoyaozi smiled and replied:
“That’s right, Ling Feng. The Free and Unfettered Sect is now famous, and my wish has been fulfilled. From now on, I will go overseas to devote myself to cultivation.”
From Xiaoyaozi's firm tone and eyes, one can see his determination to go to sea.
Moreover, it seems that he will live in seclusion overseas for a long time to come.
However, Ling Feng disagreed.
Although he was curious about the mysterious technique mentioned by Xiaoyaozi, he only wanted to find out more about it; more importantly, he wanted to complete the system's daily check-in task.
Ling Feng thought to himself, he had finally come to this world, and he hadn't even had a chance to properly appreciate the wonderful world of martial arts yet, so how could he be willing to live in seclusion overseas for a long time?
Moreover, although his strength has reached the peak of Grandmaster, there are still hidden worries, and he will not be able to break through to a higher realm in a short period of time.
Moreover, if one were to break through again, one would have already reached the legendary realm of shattering the void.
No one today understands this realm.
After all, the world has not seen a martial artist who has broken through the void for many years.
Ling Feng naturally longed for this realm as well, but he knew his own limitations and decided not to think about breaking through it in the short term.
Instead of wasting time on this, I should first find a way to resolve my current hidden dangers.
Having figured out the path he should take, Ling Feng asked Xiaoyaozi:
"Grandmaster, are your martial uncles and grand-aunts going too?"
Xiaoyaozi nodded and said:
"Yes, Xingyun will go with us. She has no more worries now. As for Canghai, she plans to cultivate in the Xiaoyao Sect first, and then go out to sea to find us after Li Qiushui passes away."
Ling Feng nodded after hearing this. This was good, since it would prevent the Xiaoyao Sect from falling into the awkward situation of having all its top combatants leave.
Moreover, their operation at sea was extremely secretive, and outsiders had no idea of their whereabouts or purpose.
Therefore, no one should dare to challenge the authority of the Free and Unfettered School in the short term.
Furthermore, Qiao Feng was not an easy opponent.
He has now entered the Innate Realm and possesses the powerful strength of a Grandmaster, making him an opponent that ordinary people simply cannot contend with.
Moreover, Qiao Feng is now the deputy leader of the Xiaoyao Sect, and he can freely practice all the sect's various martial arts techniques.
In just a few months, his cultivation level had broken through to the peak of the Innate Realm, and he was only one step away from breaking through to the Grandmaster Realm.
As his own strength continued to improve, Ling Feng became more and more confident in entrusting the Xiaoyao Sect to him.
After Ling Feng received a satisfactory answer from Xiaoyaozi, he immediately went to find Qiao Feng, who was busy at work.
In order to persuade Qiao Feng to take over as the leader of the Xiaoyao Sect, Ling Feng even abandoned his three beautiful wives and talked with Qiao Feng all night long. Finally, he managed to persuade Qiao Feng to reluctantly agree to accept the position of leader.
If outsiders knew that the position of sect leader, which they had fought so hard for and struggled for, was now being passed over between these two, I wonder what they would think.
Since Qiao Feng was willing to accept the position of sect leader, in order to avoid any unforeseen complications, Ling Feng immediately summoned the high-ranking members of the Xiaoyao Sect for a meeting.
Ling Feng then announced the news to everyone and handed the jade thumb ring, which symbolized his status as the leader of the Xiaoyao Sect, to Qiao Feng.
After Ling Feng voluntarily relinquished his position as sect leader, he, like Xiaoyaozi and others, assumed the role of Supreme Elder.
From now on, unless the sect faces a life-or-death crisis, they will no longer concern themselves with the sect's daily affairs.
As for Qiao Feng becoming the sect leader, everyone had no objections.
After all, the Xiaoyao Sect is still in its early stages, and Qiao Feng's recent performance has been witnessed by everyone, and his ability to handle affairs has won everyone's sincere admiration.
After handing over the position of sect leader, Ling Feng had properly dealt with these trivial matters and was now ready to set off overseas with Xiaoyaozi at any time.
Xiaoyaozi was naturally aware of Ling Feng's actions. Seeing that he had arranged everything, he also began to consider setting off.
After all, he had been stuck at the late Grandmaster level for so long and had long wanted to break through again.
It wasn't a big deal before, but seeing that Ling Feng had already reached the peak of the Grandmaster realm at such a young age, his desire to break through to the next level became even more active.
Many times he wanted to emulate Ling Feng by absorbing internal energy to break through, but when he thought of the hidden dangers that would result from such a breakthrough, he quickly extinguished this dangerous idea.
Besides, given his current level of cultivation, it's difficult for anyone in this world to threaten him. He doesn't need to take shortcuts to break through; it's better to proceed steadily and surely.
If he wants to break through now, without external help, he doesn't know when he'll be able to.
In his view, the mysterious cultivation technique recorded on the overseas immortal island was the external force that helped him break through.
Although he hadn't fully grasped it after all these years, he hadn't gained nothing; he had still learned a lot from it to improve his existing techniques.
So, on a dark and windy night, Ling Feng and his group left Lingjiu Palace under cover of darkness.
Their whereabouts were known only to Qiao Feng, the new sect leader; no one else knew.
The reason for doing this was to create the illusion that they were still in Lingjiu Palace and had never left.
In this way, others will be wary and dare not easily harbor any covetous thoughts towards the Free and Unfettered Sect.
After all, the Free and Unfettered Sect rose to prominence rapidly in a short period of time, so its style of doing things must have been quite assertive and domineering.
Furthermore, since the rise of the Free and Unfettered Sect, in order to obtain more cultivation resources, it has inevitably affected the interests of many people.
Therefore, although the Free and Unfettered Sect became famous, it also offended many forces.
Previously, with two Grandmaster-level experts, Ling Feng and Xiaoyaozi, in charge, even if others had some dissatisfaction, they could only endure it silently.
However, once these people learn that Ling Feng and Xiaoyaozi are no longer with the Xiaoyao Sect, actions against the Xiaoyao Sect will inevitably follow.
Therefore, to avoid unnecessary trouble, Ling Feng and the others chose to leave quietly to avoid attracting the attention of others.
Ling Feng's group of six consisted of himself, Wang Yuyan, Zhong Ling, and Mu Wanqing, as well as Xiaoyaozi and Tianshan Tonglao.
They left Lingjiu Palace under the cover of night. Apart from Ling Feng, who needed to be careful, the other five did not need to be.
After all, Ling Feng was renowned for his role in that earth-shattering battle at Shaolin Temple, and many people had seen him.
As for the others, since they rarely ventured into the martial arts world, very few people knew them anymore.
After a two-week journey, the group finally arrived at the seaside.
Since Ling Feng could not make a public appearance, the responsibility of finding a ship to sail out to sea fell to Xiaoyaozi.
Fortunately, he had experience at sea and quickly found a suitable boat.
Considering the need to keep the trip confidential, they decided to forgo the crew and sail out to sea on their own.
This meant they had to buy the ship, but luckily neither of them were short of money.
After buying the boat, the group immediately boarded it and set sail.
