Xia Fei, Ding Qingrui, and Tong Duoduo were alone in the drawing room.

In her panic, Suzu Treasure revealed Xia Fei's identity, which left Ding Qingrui and Tong Duoduo stunned. Thus, they hurriedly invited the young man into the drawing room for a round of inquiries. Xia Fei did not hide anything, confessing that he was who had brought over the healing-type soul weapon, but Xia Fei did not admit to being a Spiritualist of Healing; instead, he conferred that title to Fuchen.

Ding Qingrui asked in surprise, "In other words, Brother Xia Fie's master is a mighty Spiritualist of Healing?"

Mighty?

Xia Fei found that adjective very interesting. It seemed that Spiritualists of Healing truly were very unusual in the Alpha Universe. The mere mention of one had shaken these two bigshots of Chaos Society.

"Correct. My master is a Spiritualist of Healing, but he's very eccentric, so don't blame me for not warning you. That old thing hates it when people spread word about him," Xia whispered, his tone very sincere.

Xia Fei was calling an illustrious Spiritualist of Healing an old thing?! Tong Duoduo and Ding Qingrui were in disbelief. It was clear that Xia Fei had an incredible relationship with his master. The more they thought about this, the more burning hot their eyes became as they looked at Xia Fei.

"Since Brother Xia Fei is a disciple of a Spiritualist of Healing, then are you..." Tong Duoduo asked.

Xia Fei smiled. "I am certainly no Spiritualist, only a warrior. My master isn't just an extremely formidable Spiritualist; he's also a very skilled warrior."

Tong Duoduo and Ding Qingrui nodded repeatedly. A Spiritualist of Healing who was also a high-ranked warrior. That master that Xia Fei had concocted left them in utter disbelief.

After some thought, Ding Qingrui asked, "What is the honored name of this Spiritualist? Is there any way of paying him a visit?"

*Zing~*

Xia Fei's face became much colder as he said softly, "It's not that I'm looking down on you two, but if you try to meet my master, not only will the old thing not meet you, he'll probably throw a thunderous tantrum! If you need something, it's best if you just tell me. I have some understanding of the old thing's temper."

Tong Duoduo and Ding Qingrui instantly broke out in a cold sweat. In their eyes, Spiritualists were already unreachable existences, and Spiritualist of Healings were even higher. Thus, rather than garnering a bad reaction from them, the two of them were only more convinced that this eccentric Spiritualist was real.

There was nothing to be done. In this day and age, nice people were often not rewarded. Kind families like the Aurora Clan ended up being bullied around quite a lot.

Xia Fei stood up and saluted. "If there's nothing else, I'll bid farewell. Let us meet again in the future."

Xia Fei left, not even mentioning that unfortunate soul he had slain. Of course, Ding Qingrui and Tong Duoduo didn't bring it up either. Everyone knew that Spiritualists were not to be offended.

Gritting her teeth, Tong Duoduo said, "Brother Xia Fei, would you be willing to release that healing-type soul weapon to me? My grandfather has been searching for a healing-typing soul weapon this whole time but has never found one. This would be fulfilling his greatest wish."

Xia Fei smiled. He turned to Tong Duoduo and said, "I already gifted it to the clan, so if you wish to buy it, discuss it with the clan. It's not my place to interfere in the process, but if the price is right, I'm sure that it won't hurt to try purchasing it."

Tong Duoduo's heart had chilled at his first words, but his last statement gave her some hope, and so she nodded and said her thanks.

...

The Aurora Clan, the Wist family home.

Xia Fei explained everything. On the night when someone had tried to harm the Aurora Clan, Xia Fei's master had come forward and driven off that adversary. It was also Xia Fei's master who had assisted in catching Li Jindou and the Laz Clan in the middle of colluding.

The elders of the Aurora Clan were all deeply moved after hearing this. If not for Xia Fei, the Aurora Clan would have been in grave danger.

Xia Fei remained unperturbed, not proud despite having saved the Aurora Clan, quietly sitting down and accepting his status as a junior. The elders were all very happy to see this, particularly Wistful Northgaze. He would occasionally wipe some tears from his face, perhaps because he was still thinking about his son.

Wistful Heizus nodded. After saying his thanks, he turned to the topic of Xia Fei's background. When Xia Fei spoke of how Wistful Valley had already passed away, Wistful Northgaze finally erupted into a wail, and Xia Fei could not help but go and comfort his great grandfather.

Sighing, Wistful Heizus said, "Xia Fei, things have been truly very difficult for you. We're just happy to see that you've returned to the clan, so go home and take a look around. We can talk about the rest in two days' time."

Xia Fei nodded and left with Wistful Northgaze. The elders left in the conference room all sighed at the changing nature of the world. Everyone knew about how Wistful Valley had been driven out of the Aurora Clan all those years ago, and none of them had ever imagined that Wistful Valley's descendants would return to save the clan. They felt rather embarrassed, and even though most of those elders who had made the decision were no longer around, this was still the Aurora Clan's decision, and they had to take responsibility for it.

"Alright, everyone. How should we handle this?" Wistful Heizus asked softly.

After a moment of silence, the manager of the clan storehouse, Wistful Blue, spoke, "Patriarch, Xia Fei has been utterly faithful to us. Take that healing-type soul weapon as an example; the Tong Clan's grandmaster has just made a personal phone call, offering an astronomical price for it! Xia Fei agreed. If we can exchange that healing-type soul weapon for several high-grade soul weapons, our clan's store house will be given a huge boost."

Wistful Heizus nodded and said, "So you agree to Xia Fei acknowledging his ancestry and returning to the clan?"

Wistful Blue replied, "Correct. I can think of no reason to refuse a descendant from returning to the clan. In fact, I don't even understand why we need to discuss it."

Wistful Heizus let out a long sigh. "I'm sure that everyone knows about the curse, yes?"

Everyone turned solemn instantly, their brows creasing.

Although it had been a long time ago, the memories of that mysterious woman wreaking havoc in the Aurora Clan were so fresh to everyone that it seemed like everything happened just yesterday. At the time, the Aurora Clan had mobilized all of its power, including those grand ancestors who had been in seclusion, and had barely managed to draw with their foe. As they thought back to it, they understood that the situation had truly been perilous.

Wistful Heizus paused a moment before adding, "Even if we all agree, it's not like there will be no opposition. The reason why I have gathered everyone is so that we can jointly discuss the issue. If you have any concerns, please speak frankly."

Everyone talked until very late, with the greatest concern being that the mysterious woman would come back if Xia Fei returned to the clan in such a brazen manner. However, this was ultimately just a discussion, and no one objected to Xia Fei returning to the clan.

Moreover, Xia Fei had a Spiritualist of Healing as his master, so things were different from the past. Anyone who pushed Xia Fei away would be offending that Spiritualist, and even an incompetent Spiritualist could very likely decide the fate of a clan.

As it was getting late, Wistful Heizus stood up and said, "All right. So we've decided that Xia Fei will be accepted back into the clan. It's getting late, so we'll end things here. Tomorrow, we also need to discuss some defensive measures. After all, if that woman comes to find us, we can't be caught off guard."

Wistful Franbow, who was in charge of the clan's financial affairs, said, "This is a sensible approach. Not only do we have to get ready, we also have to notify those elders who have left the clan so that they can return as quickly as possible, just to be safe."

The people of the Alpha Universe had very long lives, and most warriors had immortal bodies. Every clan had numerous elders, and they would find it boring if they stayed too long in one place. Moreover, if it was always only a few people who controlled the clan, they would start slacking off. Thus, many of the elders of the Aurora Clan had voluntarily resigned from their position, going off in isolation to cultivate or wander the universe.

Wistful Heizus had discussed the matter with all the important members of the clan precisely because he was worried that the old people would object to Xia Fei's return. After all, it had been these people who made Wistful Valley leave the clan. The clan urgently needed to strengthen its defenses, and these old bones of the clan naturally needed to be notified.

Wistful Heizus nodded and frowned. "Relax. I will explain things to our elders."

Wistful Franbow was responsible for finances, so he was a very meticulous thinker. After thinking over the matter some more, he said, "According to the rules, since Xia Fei has acknowledged his ancestry and returned to the clan, and since he's also in the direct line of descent, he has to take on some responsibility in the clan. What post do you plan to give him?"

Being the descendant of a great clan was not easy, with the carefree Skywings being an exception. The vast majority of clans were very strict on their people. Take someone like Little Schott as an example. He was only in his teens, but he was already working in the clan's logistics department. An exception could not be made for Xia Fei. This was all according to the rules.

Wistful Heizus was truly put in a difficult spot. He had seen Xia Fei's personality today, taking a life at the slightest disagreement. There was no doubt that Xia Fei was the ruthless sort! He would be at odds no matter which department of the clan he was stationed in. Which member of this clan of nice guys could possibly control Xia Fei!?

"Since he's your great grandson, let him work in the logistics department, and Brother Northgaze can decide on his position." After pondering the matter for a while, Wistful Heizus decided to pass this thorny problem to him. After all, who made the young man Wistful Northgaze's great grandson?

...

From the afternoon and late into the night, Xia Fei accompanied Wistful Northgaze and his wife, who was Xia Fei's great grandmother.

It was a complex situation, and be it Wistful Northgaze and his wife or Xia Fei, they all had many stories to tell. There was even the occasional relative dropping by for a visit.

Everyone sighed when they spoke of how Wistful Valley was driven out of the clan, and now that Wistful Valley was buried in a foreign land, unable to be interred in the ancestral tomb, the softhearted Aurora Clan people could not help but cry bitterly.

Everyone was deeply concerned about Xia Fei, as he was the sole grandson left by Wistful Valley, and Xia Fei could tell that their concern was real, as were their worries. All of them still remembered how that crazy woman had made a huge mess in the Aurora Clan.

Three days went by, and Xia Fei grew more familiar with his kinsmen. Xia Fei had taken his mother's surname, so he was the only descendant of the direct line that lacked the surname of Wistful. Of course, nobody cared about this.

On the morning of the fourth day, Xia Fei arrived at the logistics department to report, as he had arranged with Wistful Northgaze. Such were the clan rules, but Wistful Northgaze did not really plan on making Xia Fei do anything, only having him go through the motions.

The moment he walked into the small courtyard of the logistics department, he spotted Little Schott.

He was startled, his face darkening. "Little Schott, what's wrong with your eyes? Did someone hit you?!"
