However even though he knew he could not enter the Imperial Door, Chu Feng couldn't help himself. He used the Heaven's Eyes as he stood outside the door, and carefully observed as he cast his gaze inward.

Before the Heaven's Eyes, all things showed their true form.

Yet... even though he knew the starry sky within the Imperial Door was fake, Chu Feng could see no evidence of that. The strength of the person who built everything within the Imperial Door could thus be seen.

Although Chu Feng was unable to see the essence of the thing inside the Imperial Door, Chu Feng noticed a formation engraved atop the shut city gates. Within the formation, there were three round gaps. Around those gaps were special engraved patterns.

Chu Feng recognized those patterns: one represented ice, and one represented fire. These two markings merged with each other.

The first thought that sprang into Chu Feng's mind was that the key to open the gates related to ice and fire.

Judging by the size of the gap, Chu Feng couldn't help but think of Su Rou, Su Mei, and the Azure Dragon Founder.

The size of those three gaps were the exact same as the Ice and Fire Pearls within Su Rou's and Su Mei's Body, and the Azure Dragon Founder's pearl that led to his body's immortality.

"Those three pearls are so mystical, and they have inestimable power. Perhaps it is the critical solution to opening the gates.

"However, the Ice and Fire Pearls are sealed in Little Rou's and Little Mei's body. This...

"Whatever. This Imperial Armament isn't something I can take right now anyway. With sufficiently powerful strength, there are no impossibilities. I can always think about this later in the future."

After some consideration, he had indeed learnt how far he was before he could interact with the Imperial Door. So, he didn't bother looking for annoyances and obediently left with Qiu Canfeng and Taikou.

However, before they left the Imperial Tomb completely, they covered up its last entrance together with great seriousness and detail. The reason they did that was solely for the treasure within.

They naturally did not wish for others to discover that treasure.

Afterwards, Chu Feng and the others went to meet up with Lady Piaomiao and Qiushui Fuyan.

"Even Lady Piaomiao has come? Chu Feng, Brother Taikou, what's happened in the Eastern Sea Region?" Qiu Canfeng asked. After knowing that even Lady Piaomiao had come to the eastern continents, he had realized the severity of the present situation.

Chu Feng didn't hide anything as he carefully narrated to Qiu Canfeng everything that had happened up until now: He joined the Crippling Night Demon Sect, but You Mingdeng drove him out; the conflicts between the Crippling Night Demon Sect and the Immortal Execution Archipelago; and the attack onto the Misty Peak by the Immortal Execution Archipelago's alliance as they used the excuse of Lady Piaomiao's protection.

After knowing everything that had happened-especially after knowing You Mingdeng drove Chu Feng out of the Crippling Night Demon Sect even though he had done so much for them-Qiu Canfeng gritted his teeth from anger. He was extremely furious.

However, at the same time, Qiu Canfeng was also very happy. He never would have expected his disciple could pull out the unpullable Demon Sealing Sword. One must know that he, and the three other Protectors, had attempted to draw out the Demon Sealing Sword in their struggle over the position of sect head, but they had all failed.

"Chu Feng, don't worry. Your master here will collect everything the Crippling Night Demon Sect owes you. They fear that you will affect their influence? I'll do exactly that. I'll push you onto a position they will fear," Qiu Canfeng said gravely.

"Master, do you mean?" Chu Feng asked.

"I will have you become the head of the Crippling Night Demon Sect," Qiu Canfeng said solemnly.

"Master..." Chu Feng was shocked. He knew he had to lay hold of the Demon Sealing Sword and command the Crippling Night Demon Sect if he wanted to save Zi Ling.

However, in reality, Chu Feng didn't want to become the head of some demon sect. Even if he pulled out the Demon Sealing Sword, he felt he was unqualified. On the other hand, no matter experience or strength, his master was fully suited for that position. Moreover, Chu Feng knew Qiu Canfeng did really want this role.

Yet, right now, even Qiu Canfeng wanted Chu Feng to become the head of the Crippling Night Demon Sect. That truly put him in a difficult position, because he knew Qiu Canfeng wasn't joking.

"Chu Feng, listen to me first. Before he passed away, the sect head had said no matter who it was, as long as they were able to pull out the Demon Sealing Sword, they could become the head of the Crippling Night Demon Sect. Similarly, the only person qualified as head of the Crippling Night Demon Sect is the person who is able to wield the Demon Sealing Sword.

"Although I do wish to command the Crippling Night Demon Sect, I do not have the ability to pull it out. Even if I can subdue everyone with my strength, it will only be a submission of mouth, not of heart. That would instead be worse.

"But you are different. You're able to pull the Demon Sealing Sword out, so you are the sole person qualified to rule the Crippling Night Demon Sect.

"Chu Feng, I'm sure you've seen it too. Right now, the Crippling Night Demon Sect is in pieces. We're already no match for the Immortal Execution Archipelago, and the Immortal Execution Archipelago will sooner or later destroy us completely if the present circumstances persist.

"If we rebuild the Crippling Night Demon Sect right now, perhaps we can put up a battle against them. Any later, when we wait until the Immortal Execution Archipelago comes to deal with us themselves, it will be all too late," Qiu Canfeng urged when Chu Feng hesitated.

"Chu Feng, a master's order is hard to turn down. Just accept. Besides, even if you become sect head, you don't have to stay in the Eastern Sea Region. When you want to venture off to the Holy Land of Martialism, wouldn't it be fine to just have your master handle the Crippling Night Demon Sect?" Taikou urged as well.

The meaning behind his words was very simple: Chu Feng just had to wear the title of "sect head" while the person who truly controlled the Crippling Night Demon Sect remained to be Qiu Canfeng. And, Qiu Canfeng could only fairly and reasonably rule over the Crippling Night Demon Sect when Chu Feng became the sect head.
