"Immortality is a way of living. When people die, sometimes their soul stays in this world, but they're still dead. However, when they disperse, have you never wondered where their soul went?" Wen Ao Xue asked him slowly.
Lin Feng shook his head. He had never wondered about that; he had always thought that when a soul dispersed, it just thoroughly disappeared.
"You probably wouldn't believe it because you've never gone through such a thing. Well, actually, somebody prevented you from going through such a thing," replied Wen Ao Xue with a weird smile. Lin Feng instantly thought of something.
"Wen Ao Xue, how did you resurrect yourself?" he asked. He still didn't understand. How had she come back to life?
Wen Ao Xue smiled in amusement; she knew Lin Feng was curious.
"Lin Feng, in the name of the group I represent, I would like to invite you to become one of us," said Wen Ao Xue with a big smile.
Lin Feng's expression shifted. Wen Ao Xue wanted him to become a member of her group?
"What group?" asked Lin Feng. He didn't really know what to think about Wen Ao Xue. He had killed her himself, even though he didn't want to.
That's why he was worried when he saw her again. He forced himself to forget about that for the moment.
"The Great Alliance of the Hundred Worlds!" Wen Ao Xue smiled.
When Lin Feng heard that name, he just stared at her. He didn't know anything about that group.
Wen Ao Xue saw that Lin Feng needed to know a bit more about it. She continued explaining the situation patiently. "Lin Feng, the Great Alliance of the Hundred Worlds is the group in charge of all the small worlds of the Continent of the Gods.
"When I returned to life, I joined the Great Alliance of the Hundred Worlds as the representative of the Continent of the Nine Clouds, but I underestimated them. Some of the most outstanding geniuses of all the small worlds are there. Some young cultivators even have the strength of the top of the seventh Godly Emperor Layer there. It's an incredible place.
"Many people in the Continent of the Gods belong to the Great Alliance of the Hundred Worlds, but nobody knows about them," said Wen Ao Xue patiently.
"Is that so?"
Lin Feng was more and more astonished. He had thought that he had seen a lot in the Continent of the Gods, but he hadn't. If Wen Ao Xue hadn't come back to life, maybe he would have never learned about this.
"Lin Feng, will you consider my proposition? As the real ruler of the Continent of the Nine Clouds, of course," asked Wen Ao Xue smiling thinly. Lin Feng shivered, lowered his head, and nodded.
If anyone else had asked him that, he wouldn't even have thought about it, but it was Wen Ao Xue. He had no reason to refuse, especially since he regretted that he had killed Wen Ao Xue hundreds of years before.
Lin Feng really did regret what he had done. What the Wen Clan had done to him had nothing to do with Wen Ao Xue. Wen Ao Xue hadn't done much, but put some distance between him and Lin Feng back then.
When Wen Ao Xue saw Lin Feng nod, she knew he was going to accept. She knew he regretted what he had done, and that it was one of the reasons why he wasn't going to refuse. She had dared come to see Lin Feng and tell him who she really was because of that.
The reason why she had challenged Lin Feng the previous time was that she wanted to see how strong he was. If he hadn't been strong enough, she would have still tried to get in touch with him, but she wouldn't have invited him to join the Great Alliance of the Hundred Worlds. But from what she understood, Lin Feng was still a little bit stronger than her.
The Continent of the Nine Clouds needed Lin Feng. They needed him as their real leader!
"Ao Xue, tell me more about the Great Alliance of the Hundred Worlds," said Lin Feng. He forgot about his guilt and sat knee to knee with Wen Ao Xue to have a long talk. They were both seated on the other side of the mountain and looking at the stars.
"The Great Alliance of the Hundred Worlds doesn't exist in any world. It is an alliance; its members are the most outstanding cultivators of their respective small worlds. You know many of the members of the Great Alliance of the Hundred Worlds.
"Fu Su Rong is a member of the Great Alliance of the Hundred Worlds. He used to be the ruler of the Continent of the Flame Dragons, so he became a member of the Great Alliance of the Hundred Worlds, and now he's one of the heirs of the Dragon Capital Holy Dynasty.
"The three Dynasties aren't that simple, either. You probably understand a lot about the Celestial Evolution Holy Dynasty, because Yan Di is your best friend and you know all his secrets, but there's something Yan Di doesn't know.
"Yan Zun and Yan Chang are both vice leaders in the Great Alliance of the Hundred Worlds. When they lost their founder, Yun Shan Ming, they didn't collapse thanks to Yan Chang and Yan Zun's particular identities, and that's also how they became one of the three Dynasties.
"The Dragon Capital Holy Dynasty is also supported by the Great Alliance of the Hundred Worlds. Fu Su Rong and Yan Ran Xue are members themselves. Because of these reasons, you can't really assess the strength of the three Dynasties.
"The three Dynasties all have a similar strength. Even though Tian Di is a cultivator of the eighth Godly Emperor Layer, compared to the leader of the Great Alliance of the Hundred Worlds, his strength is not worth mentioning, hehehe!" said Wen Ao Xue, smiling mockingly.
She was making fun of Tian Di's strength, which aroused Lin Feng's interest. What kind of group was the Great Alliance of the Hundred Worlds? How strong was the leader of the Great Alliance of the Hundred Worlds?
"Ao Xue, is the leader a Supreme God?" asked Lin Feng, thinking of Ancestor Kong.
Wen Ao Xue nodded. She wasn't surprised that Lin Feng knew about the Supreme God layer.
"Indeed, the leader of the Great Alliance of the Hundred Worlds is a low-level Supreme God. His name is Lei Gang!" said Wen Ao Xue. She didn't notice that when she said "Lei Gang", Lin Feng made a face. He even pulled a long face and shuddered.
"Lei Gang? You said Lei Gang?" asked Lin Feng. He was astonished.
Wen Ao Xue didn't understand why Lin Feng was reacting like that, but she nodded, "Yes, Lei Gang. Lin Feng, what's wrong?"
"Nothing, nothing. It sounds familiar," said Lin Feng, shaking his head. He didn't tell Wen Ao Xue about Miss Snow and Lei Gang's tensions. He didn't mention that Meng Qing wanted to avenge her teacher either, and that she wanted to kill Lei Gang.
However, when Lin Feng heard that he was the leader of the Great Alliance of the Hundred Worlds, it felt like he was going to collapse. Lin Feng or Meng Qing couldn't compete with a cultivator of the eighth Godly Emperor Layer, so a low-level Supreme God was even worse!
The atmosphere became tense. Wen Ao Xue didn't how to break the awkward silence. They just sat there at the back of the mountain silently.

Hou Qing Lin was growing extremely worried. Lin Feng and Dong Fang Tian Xia had been there for at least three hours. Maybe something had happened to Lin Feng?
As he was about to go and see, he suddenly saw a man and a woman appear. The man was Lin Feng, but who was that woman?
When Hou Qing Lin saw Wen Ao Xue, he was completely dumbstruck. He blinked, but she was still there. Indeed, that's a woman, he thought.
"Brother, what…"
