Mu Rongyi struck out with his palm, and it instantly formed a massive palm force, shooting towards Li Feng as swift as lightning.
Facing the incoming palm force, Li Feng sneered and stood motionless.
“Has Li Feng gone mad?”
Seeing this, Nangong Xin could not help but freeze in shock. She did not know exactly how powerful Mu Rongyi was, but judging from the fact that Murong Kang addressed him as Elder Yi, he was clearly an elder of the Murong family. His skills could not be poor. Given Li Feng’s age, if he did not dodge, he would probably die.
“Haha, Li Feng, oh Li Feng, this time you are finished. With Elder Yi personally taking action, how could you possibly survive?” Murong Kang laughed triumphantly in his heart. He had truly worried that Mu Rongyi would not attack Li Feng, but as long as he did, Li Feng’s death was certain.
Just as the palm force was about to strike Li Feng, a figure appeared in front of him and threw a punch.
In an instant, a fist force erupted fiercely.
Boom!
The fist force collided with the palm force, producing a heaven-shaking explosion. Both forces dissipated into nothingness and vanished.
“Acquired seventh level?” Mu Rongyi narrowed his eyes. He had not expected there to be an acquired seventh-level ancient martial artist by Li Feng’s side. No wonder Li Feng was so arrogant.
“You do not need to know,” Blood Eagle said gravely, staring at Mu Rongyi. Although he had thrown that punch, he knew it had only been a casual strike from Mu Rongyi, whereas he had used nearly his full strength.
“A mere acquired seventh level cannot stop me,” Mu Rongyi sneered. He did not take an acquired seventh-level cultivator seriously at all.
“What about adding me?” Killing Eagle stepped forward, his aura surging.
“Another acquired seventh level?” Surprise flashed in Mu Rongyi’s eyes. It seemed Li Feng’s background was truly extraordinary; he actually had two acquired seventh-level ancient martial artists by his side.
However…
Mu Rongyi sneered and said, “Even if there were two acquired seventh-level cultivators, or ten for that matter, this old man would not be concerned.”
“Not necessarily. The two of us are more than enough to kill you,” Blood Eagle said with a cold laugh.
“Just the two of you?” Mu Rongyi sneered. He thought Blood Eagle’s arrogance knew no bounds. Did they really think two acquired seventh-level cultivators could kill him? Did they not know that the gap between realms in ancient martial arts was an insurmountable barrier?
“Yes, just the two of us, the Blood Killing Twin Eagles, are enough to kill you,” Killing Eagle said coldly. As long as it was not an innate realm expert, there was no one below the innate realm that they could not kill.
“What? You are the Blood Killing Twin Eagles?” Mu Rongyi’s expression changed. The Blood Killing Twin Eagles were renowned; how could he not have heard of them? He simply had never imagined that the two men before him were them.
Not only Mu Rongyi, but Murong Kang and Nangong Xin beside him also turned pale. None of them had expected that Li Feng’s two subordinates were actually the Blood Killing Twin Eagles.
Especially Nangong Xin. She had nearly fought them earlier, and now thinking back, a chill ran through her entire body.
Although the Blood Killing Twin Eagles were only at the acquired seventh level, their combined attack technique could slay an acquired ninth-level cultivator. Having them by one’s side was equivalent to having an acquired ninth-level martial artist.
“Indeed,” Blood Eagle nodded.
“Since when did the Blood Killing Twin Eagles become subordinates to someone else?” Mu Rongyi said with a cold laugh, though he was still extremely wary of them.
“Humph, that is none of your business,” Killing Eagle said gravely, his gaze sharpening.
“It seems the Blood Killing Twin Eagles wish to become enemies with our Murong family?” Mu Rongyi’s expression turned cold, a chill flashing in his eyes.
“So what if we do? If you want to kill our master, you must first get past us,” Blood Eagle said coldly.
“Master?” Mu Rongyi immediately caught those words. He naturally understood what they meant, but he had never imagined that Li Feng was actually the master of the Blood Killing Twin Eagles.
The Blood Killing Twin Eagles always acted as a pair and had never bowed to anyone. How had they suddenly gained a master? If Li Feng was their master, did that not mean they were his servants?
What exactly had made the Blood Killing Twin Eagles willingly become servants? Servants and subordinates were two entirely different concepts.
Mu Rongyi was shocked, for he could not fathom what could make the Blood Killing Twin Eagles willingly serve Li Feng.
However…
Mu Rongyi sneered. So what if they were the Blood Killing Twin Eagles? Would the Murong family fear them? Although he alone was no match for them, he had not come to Tianya Pavilion alone this time.
At that moment, Mu Rongyi sneered and said, “The Blood Killing Twin Eagles may be formidable, but do you think the two of you can withstand two acquired ninth-level ancient martial artists?”
“What about adding me?” Li Feng sneered, stepping forward. His aura suddenly erupted.
Although Li Feng was injured and his strength greatly reduced, his divine sense was unaffected. He could fully simulate the aura of a peak acquired ninth-level cultivator.
“What?” Sensing Li Feng’s aura, Mu Rongyi’s face changed dramatically. Not only him, but the elder beside him also stared at Li Feng as if seeing a ghost.
“Peak acquired ninth level? How is this possible?” Mu Rongyi looked at Li Feng in disbelief. He had never imagined that Li Feng possessed peak acquired ninth-level strength.
“There is nothing impossible in this world,” Li Feng said with a cold laugh. “If your Murong family wants to deal with me, it seems you have not investigated my background thoroughly. Did you not know that just the night before last, this young master slain a peak acquired ninth-level ancient martial artist?”
“Impossible.” Mu Rongyi shook his head fiercely. “Li Feng, even if you truly are at peak acquired ninth level, you could not possibly slay another peak acquired ninth-level cultivator. Moreover, although you have the aura of peak acquired ninth level, it does not mean you possess the corresponding strength.”
“Is that so?” Li Feng sneered. “If your Murong family’s intelligence network in Tianhai City is not lacking, you can investigate immediately. The night before last, at the Binhe Road intersection, it was I, Li Feng, who killed the peak acquired ninth-level Wei Kang. Once you investigate, you will know whether I speak the truth.”
Mu Rongyi hesitated. Although he still found it hard to believe Li Feng could slay a peak acquired ninth-level cultivator, Li Feng’s words were detailed, with specific location and name. Could he really have done it?
He signalled to the elder beside him with his eyes. The elder quickly took out his phone and sent a text message.
“Haha, Li Feng, you claim to have the strength to slay a peak acquired ninth-level cultivator? Go fool a ghost.” Although Murong Kang was shocked by the aura Li Feng had just released, he did not believe a word of it. Li Feng was about the same age as him, and he himself was only at acquired fourth level. How could Li Feng possibly have the strength to kill a peak acquired ninth-level cultivator?
To slay a peak acquired ninth-level ancient martial artist, one would at least need peak acquired ninth-level strength themselves. How could Li Feng possess that?
Even if Li Feng had castrated himself and cultivated something like the Sunflower Manual, his strength could not possibly be this great.
“Murong Kang, am I speaking to you? Shut your mouth,” Li Feng said coldly.
“You…” Murong Kang flew into a rage. He had never expected Li Feng to remain so arrogant even in front of Mu Rongyi and the others.
Ding!
A text message alert sounded. The elder beside Mu Rongyi checked his phone, and his face immediately changed dramatically.
“What is it?” Mu Rongyi asked.
“Elder Yi, what he said is true. The information has been confirmed. The night before last, Li Feng did indeed kill the peak acquired ninth-level Wei Kang at Binhe Road. This Wei Kang was the boss of Tianyan in Su City,” the elder said in a low voice.
In an instant, Mu Rongyi’s face changed dramatically.
If these words had come from Li Feng, he would not have believed them, but they came from the elder beside him. That elder, named Murong Wei, was in charge of the Murong family’s intelligence network.
Murong Wei had managed the family’s intelligence for many years without a single mistake. So if he said Li Feng had killed the peak acquired ninth-level Wei Kang, then Li Feng truly had.
But how could Li Feng possess such formidable strength?
Disbelief filled Mu Rongyi’s eyes. He himself was now at peak acquired ninth level, but he had cultivated for fifty or sixty years. Li Feng, on the other hand, was at most in his twenties, with no more than ten or so years of cultivation, less than a third of his own. How could he have such formidable strength?
Whether Mu Rongyi could believe it or not, one thing was certain: Li Feng possessed the ability to slay a peak acquired ninth-level cultivator.
With Li Feng plus the Blood Killing Twin Eagles, if they truly fought, he and Murong Wei might not be their match.
That was not the most important issue. The crucial point was that Li Feng, at such a young age, already possessed peak acquired ninth-level strength. The person who had trained him must be even more terrifying.
The Murong family had several innate realm experts, but he had never heard of any cultivating a young powerhouse like Li Feng. Thus, Mu Rongyi was certain that behind Li Feng stood an absolute supreme expert. Even if they could defeat Li Feng, offending the supreme expert behind him would be the real disaster.
The current Murong family could not, and absolutely must not, offend such a supreme expert. Otherwise, if today’s events reached the family, they would not spare him either.
“Li Feng, how do you wish to resolve this matter?” Mu Rongyi asked gravely.
“Elder Yi, you cannot possibly believe Li Feng’s nonsense, can you? How could he possess peak acquired ninth-level strength?” Because his martial arts had been sealed by Li Feng, Murong Kang had not heard Murong Wei’s words. Hearing Mu Rongyi soften his stance now, his face changed dramatically.
“Shut your mouth,” Mu Rongyi snapped, anger flashing in his eyes. If not for this Murong Kang, they would not be in such a passive position now. He truly could not understand how, in just a few days in Tianhai City, Murong Kang had provoked such a powerful enemy.
“How to resolve it depends on your sincerity,” Li Feng said meaningfully, his gaze sharpening.
