Chapter 3175 — Giving Up the Move

Ancestor Pure Yang thought nothing of it, assuming it was someone from the Eastern family, and picked up the call. "Hello, this is Pure Yang!"
"Ancestor Pure Yang, this is Feng Tianhu of the Ancient Feng family. I wonder if you have heard my name?" Feng Tianhu inquired cautiously. Tomorrow Upon Tomorrow—that sect was a veritable colossus, and he could not afford to handle them carelessly.
"The Ancient Feng family? That I know. Feng Tianhu, though, I do not." Ancestor Pure Yang frowned, wondering what someone from the Feng family could want with him.
"I am Feng Nitian's father—the father of the very Feng Nitian whom Wei Zhao crippled!" Feng Tianhu hastened to introduce himself.
"Oh? Feng Nitian?" This time Ancestor Pure Yang did recall. "That does ring a bell. What business do you have with me, Feng Tianhu?"
"It is like this… Wei Zhao has slain Ancestor Pure Yin, your fine champion, as well as Eastern Silver Star, the fine champion of the Eastern family. I am calling to bring you the news," Feng Tianhu said.
"What? Eastern Silver Star of the Eastern family is dead too?" Ancestor Pure Yang was stunned. He had earlier guessed that Eastern Silver Star had used Ancestor Pure Yin as cannon fodder, but now it seemed that was not the case at all—both of them were dead!
"Yes, Wei Zhao killed them both," Feng Tianhu said.
"Oh? Then how do you come to know this news? It seems to have nothing to do with your Ancient Feng family. What role did you play in all this?" Ancestor Pure Yang's tone turned cold as he pressed the question.
"Ancestor Pure Yang, let me speak frankly. The truth is, the matter with the Eastern family was set off by me…" Feng Tianhu steeled himself and held nothing back, telling Ancestor Pure Yang of his designs on Xu Shilan, as well as of how he had made an enemy of Wei Zhao. None of this was any secret anymore, and Feng Tianhu was past caring.
"Oh? So by that account, the people of the Eastern family all died because of you?" Ancestor Pure Yang knitted his brows. "What do you mean by making this call? Do you merely wish to inform me that Pure Yin has also fallen?"
Ancestor Pure Yang could not quite make out Feng Tianhu's intent. Even if the Eastern family's people had died on Feng Tianhu's account, there was no need to notify Tomorrow Upon Tomorrow. What exactly was this man after?
"Not exactly because of me. When the matter came to light earlier, Eastern Xiaocui had already told Eastern Jinxing to stand down. Everything after that was a grudge between the Eastern family and Wei Zhao," Feng Tianhu said.
"If that is so, then there is all the less reason for you to tell me any of this. What is it you actually want to say?" The more Ancestor Pure Yang heard, the more perplexed he became.
"What I want to say is that we share a common enemy—Wei Zhao!" Feng Tianhu said. "As things stand, the Eastern family has been gravely weakened. They want no further part in it, but your esteemed sect surely will not let the matter rest? When the time comes, you and I join forces and deal with Wei Zhao together!"
"You and I join forces? Do you speak for yourself, or for the Ancient Feng family?" Ancestor Pure Yang asked flatly, not in the least moved. In his eyes, even the Ancient Feng family was hardly a formidable power.
"That… myself, of course…" Feng Tianhu said, somewhat awkwardly.
"Very well, I understand. I will speak of this matter with my master, Ancestor Mad Dragon, and give you an answer then. If there is nothing else, I will hang up." With that, Ancestor Pure Yang ended the call.
"What did the Feng family want with you?" Zhong Yongliang asked once Ancestor Pure Yang had hung up.
"They want to join forces with us. The situation is like this…" And Ancestor Pure Yang recounted what Feng Tianhu had said.
