Chapter 543: Returning What Belongs to the Owner, Human Sentiments, Building a Stable Passage.
Ye Feng wanted to stop the Demon God Temple Master from escaping, but since Yuzhu did not make any move, he could only temporarily give up.
"One day, I will storm the Demon God Temple and rub that bastard of a Temple Master into the ground!"
Ye Feng silently swore to himself.
Afterward, he turned to Yuzhu, clasped his hands together, and said:
"Thank you, Yuzhu, for lending your aid. Ye is endlessly grateful."
If it weren't for Yuzhu's appearance, he would have had to use millions of prestige points to enter the Holy Divine Form for five seconds.
Although Ye Feng was looking forward to it, he was still uncertain in his heart.
The Holy Divine Form sounded strong, but whether it could instantly take down the Temple Master of the Demon God Temple was still unclear.
So, it was good that Yuzhu took action.
"I helped you merely because a friend of mine from the past joined your Misty Sect; otherwise, I would not have intervened in this matter," Yuzhu said softly, gently shaking her head.
She stepped down slowly, standing in front of Li Qiankun.
Whoosh!
The Ring Spirit Jade suddenly soared into the air, landing in the palm of Yuzhu. The ancient seals on its surface all crumbled away, emitting a soft glow that appeared extremely sacred.
"This... this!"
Li Qiankun was so shocked that he was speechless.
How had this seemingly ordinary jade pendant become like this?
He couldn't figure it out.
"At last, it has returned to its rightful owner," Yuzhu's voice sounded out, seemingly full of anticipation.
"Is this your belonging, senior?" Li Qiankun touched his shiny bald head, blinked his eyes, and asked.
"Yes," Yuzhu said, nodding slightly and looking at Li Qiankun, "You are the son of an old friend of mine."
Li Qiankun was taken aback: "Senior, you knew my parents?"
Yuzhu nodded slightly: "Many years ago, your mother and I were as close as sisters. Later, she married a Void Break Realm expert and eventually gave birth to you."
"However, your parents were caught in a great war. Your mother managed to leave behind an audio message before she vanished without a trace."
"As for this Ring Spirit Jade, it was a treasure I obtained by chance. I crafted it into a spiritual treasure and gifted it to your mother."
"But now, this object is of great use to me and must be reclaimed."
"If you are willing to let me have it, I owe you a debt, and I can intervene on your behalf once in the future."
Having said that, Yuzhu fell silent.
She was waiting for Li Qiankun's decision.
Li Qiankun glanced at the Ring Spirit Jade and then looked at his adoptive father, the Mountain Divine Monkey, who, in turn, looked at Ye Feng.
"Why are you looking at me?"
A spasm flickered at the corner of Ye Feng's mouth.
Why should I be the one to decide in this matter?
He was somewhat frustrated.
Suddenly, Ye Feng noticed Yuzhu looking over as well.
Now he was truly in a difficult position.
After pondering for a moment, Ye Feng could only say, "Yuzhu saved our lives; it's only fair that the object returns to its original owner."
"Good, how refreshing!"
Yuzhu gave a slight smile.
The material of the Ring Spirit Jade was special; it could not be taken by force. Consent was required for its use, or otherwise, the special energy contained within would completely dissipate.
Yuzhu was pleased that Ye Feng agreed.
Just thinking about how this item would help her advance to the eighth level of the Void Break Realm, Yuzhu couldn't help but smile.
She looked at Ye Feng and Li Qiankun with a smile and said:
"From today onwards, I owe you a favor. When you need to, use this item to contact me. In some time, I will return the Ring Spirit Jade; you need not worry about that."
Whoosh!
Yuzhu vanished in an instant.
Ye Feng raised an eyebrow, lifting his hand to find a green jade crane in his palm.
Crush this item, and it would summon Yuzhu.
Ye Feng pocketed the jade crane and looked at Li Qiankun: "The Ring Spirit Jade was left to you by your mother, so why let me make the decision?"
Li Qiankun blinked and said, "I haven't seen my parents since I can remember, so I don't really have much attachment to them, and thus, I'm not that concerned about the Ring Spirit Jade."
"Alright then!" Ye Feng muttered.
Since even Li Qiankun wasn't too concerned about it, and Yuzhu would return the Ring Spirit Jade after a while, this matter, for now, was let go.
"Let's continue crafting the Medium-Sized Transport Formation!"
Ye Feng continued to inscribe the array patterns, fingers formed like a sword.
With the Demon God Temple Master scared off and not daring to target him for the time being, Ye Feng felt it was the perfect opportunity to strengthen himself.
He used the Eye of Insight and the Heart of Wisdom to inscribe without any mistakes.
Three days later.
Ye Feng finally created a set of two-way Teleportation Arrays.
In the square of the Leiwu Martial Imperial Palace.
The two Teleportation Arrays were placed a hundred meters apart on the ground, each about three inches high and ten meters in diameter, capable of simultaneously transporting over a hundred people with ease.
Whir!
One of the Teleportation Arrays emitted a white light that shot up to the sky, and the Flame Emperor Demon standing on it vanished in an instant.
The next moment, he appeared on the other Teleportation Array.
"Marvelous!"
Emperor Leiwu expressed his admiration.
Ye Feng's crafted medium-sized two-way Teleportation Array was intricately structured and energy-efficient, using upper-grade Spirit Stones for operation, and its maximum transmission distance could reach a hundred million miles.
With supreme-grade Spirit Stones, the transmission distance would be even greater.
"Alright, there is no issue with this Formation."
Ye Feng said.
This was already the tenth test of the Teleportation Array, and every time it succeeded without causing any discomfort to the people being transported.
"Emperor Leiwu, one of the Teleportation Arrays will be placed in the Teleportation Hall of Heavenly Thunder City, and the remaining one will be taken back to the Misty Sect by this Sect Leader," said Ye Feng.
"No problem!"
Emperor Leiwu nodded in agreement.
The two had already discussed the arrangement.
The Teleportation Array in Heavenly Thunder City would be maintained by the royal family of the Leiwu Dynasty, and if any cultivators used the Teleportation Array, the profits would be split ninety-ten.
The Misty Sect would take ninety percent, and the Leiwu Royal Family would take ten percent.
Ye Feng had no objections to this.
"Emperor Leiwu, this Sect Leader will go back to the sect first to set up the Teleportation Array. After a while, I will send elders to recruit new disciples," Ye Feng announced.
"You are most welcome," replied Emperor Leiwu, with a smile sending him off.
In a flash of white light, Ye Feng and his party were teleported to the Teleportation Hall in Jiaoyang Holy City, and after one more teleport, they returned to the familiar Mystique Royal Capital.
"Third Prince, thank you very much for this time," said Ye Feng.

"Sect Master Ye, you're too polite," replied the Third Prince.
Ye Feng soon bid farewell to the Third Prince, and under the longing gaze of the First Princess Ling Yue, he disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Sect Master Ye must have used a Teleportation Talisman to return to the Misty Sect," said the Third Prince.
"Yes," Ling Yue nodded her head.
Accompanying Ye Feng on the trip, she found herself sneaking glances at him from time to time, realizing she was growing fonder of him.
She gazed intently in the direction of the Misty Sect, without even blinking.
"First Princess, if you keep looking like that, your eyes will pop out," the Third Prince teased.
"Annoying!"
Ling Yue gave the Third Prince a look, lightly waved her sleeves, and returned to the Miaoyin Tea House.
...
Misty Sect.
No sooner had the Five Great Demon Emperors appeared than they exuded an utterly terrifying aura, causing the entire Misty Sect to tremble.
"An enemy invasion!"
A disciple shouted.
But the next moment, Ye Feng landed a palm on the disciple's shoulder and said:
"What's the panic? These five are Mountain Guardian Spirit Beasts that this Sect Leader has recruited from the Wind Demon Mountain Range, namely the Mountain Divine Monkey, the Flame Emperor Demon, the Heavenly Thunder Emperor, the Storm Demon Emperor, and the Carp Demon Emperor."
As soon as the voice was heard, the entire sect was shocked.
Ye Feng had only been away for a few days, yet he had recruited so many powerful Demon Emperor-level Spiritual Beasts—it was terrifying!
"Greetings, Elders!"
Although the Five Great Demon Emperors were Demonic Beasts, they were at the Divine Origin Realm; hence, calling them "Elders" was not excessive.
Soon, news of the Five Great Demon Emperors spread throughout the sect.
Mo Ying, Shi Lei, and other disciples emerged from seclusion, looking at the five huge figures floating in the air, and felt a sense of being minuscule.
"That is the Spirit Beasts Platform. You can cultivate there."
"This is the Bloodline Purifying Pill. It has an unparalleled effect of purifying the bloodline and enhancing one's potential," said Ye Feng, as he pointed to the Spirit Beasts Platform and then took out an Elixir, explaining them respectively.
"Limitless enhancement of the bloodline?"
Shocked and somewhat eager, all Five Great Demon Emperors reacted to his words.
