Tianhai City, suburbs.
Li Feng looked at the person blocking his way. He sneered and said: If I am not mistaken, you must be Li Yong.
Ever since Li Wu came to Tianhai City, Li Feng had investigated everyone around Li Wu thoroughly. This Li Yong was just like Uncle Ning beside Song Zhiyuan. He was Li Wu’s bodyguard, an acquired ninth layer ancient martial artist.
According to the intelligence Li Feng received, Li Yong was a collateral descendant of the Li family. He had shown high martial talent from a young age. Twenty years ago, Li Xiangyang took a liking to him and brought him into his camp. From that time onward, Li Yong had stayed by Li Wu’s side, responsible for protecting him.
I never expected the eldest young master to know me. Li Yong looked coldly at Li Feng and said: Eldest young master should know why I came to find you today.
You know? Li Yong, how could I possibly know what you want from me? Could it be that you want to follow me instead? Li Feng sneered. Li Yong’s appearance was both within his expectations and beyond them.
Li Feng knew that once Li Wu fell into his hands, Li Wu’s subordinates would not give up easily. It was normal for them to try every means to rescue Li Wu. At first Li Feng thought they would go to Tianya Pavilion to save Li Wu. He never expected their real target to be himself.
Eldest young master, I will not waste words with you. I only want you to release my young master. Li Yong said coldly.
Your young master? You mean Li Wu? Li Feng asked.
Yes, exactly Li Wu. As long as you release my young master today, I will not make things difficult for you. Li Yong nodded. His gaze was sharp and pressing as he stared at Li Feng.
I do not understand what you mean. What do you mean by release your young master? When did I ever capture your young master? Li Feng smiled and said.
You… Li Yong looked at Li Feng with fury on his face. He said coldly: Eldest young master, do not play dumb in front of me. Everyone knows it was you who captured my young master.
Li Yong, you can eat whatever you want, but you cannot say whatever you like. When did I capture Li Wu? If you have the ability, show me proof. Li Feng sneered. It was Song Zhiyuan who captured Li Wu. He had only locked Li Wu up.
Moreover, even if he had captured Li Wu, did Li Yong think a single sentence from him would make Li Feng release the man? Would that not make him lose all face?
Li Feng, denying it is useless. I ask you now, will you release him or not? Li Yong looked coldly at Li Feng. Killing intent flashed in his eyes.
What if I release him? What if I do not? Li Feng curled his lips in disdain. He looked coldly at Li Yong and said.
If you do not release him, do not even think about leaving this place today. Li Yong said coldly.
Oh? So you, Li Yong, want to keep me here? Do you have the strength for that? Li Feng sneered.
Whether I have the strength or not, you will know soon enough. Li Yong said coldly.
Just with you, Li Yong? A mere acquired ninth layer thinks he can keep me here? I do not know how many acquired ninth layer ancient martial artists this young master has already killed. For the sake of you being from the Li family, this young master will give you one chance to live. If you leave right now, I will not kill you. Li Feng said coldly.
He could not kill Li Wu since Li Wu was in his hands. But killing Li Wu’s subordinate gave him no psychological burden. Even if Li Yong was a collateral member of the Li family, he would kill him if he wanted to.
Hmph. Li Feng, your strength is indeed not bad, but that is only compared to others. Li Yong snorted coldly. He looked at Li Feng with surging killing intent and said: I want to see what abilities you, Li Feng, really have.
You do not appreciate kindness. Since you want to die, I will grant your wish. Li Feng’s gaze suddenly turned icy. In the next instant, his entire body turned into an afterimage and shot straight toward Li Yong. His speed was lightning fast.
Hmph, overestimating yourself.
Facing Li Feng who was rushing toward him at high speed, Li Yong snorted coldly. His gaze toward Li Feng was full of contempt.
He raised his hand, ready to strike at Li Feng.
But in the next moment, he saw a scene that horrified him.
Heaven and Earth Severing Blade!
Just as Li Feng charged toward Li Yong, a large blade appeared in his hand. The Heaven and Earth Blade Technique was instantly unleashed.
In an instant, streaks of blade light appeared in the air. But their target was not Li Yong. Instead, they struck toward the forest behind Li Yong.
Boom, boom, boom…
The blade lights slashed into the forest, causing earth-shaking explosions. Several burly men hidden in the trees each took several blade strikes to their bodies.
Puff, puff…
Blood arrows continuously sprayed from the wounds on these men’s bodies, leaving pools of blood on the ground.
Bang, bang, bang!
Before Li Yong could even react, these men fell to the ground dead one after another. From start to finish, none of them had time to respond.
Because Li Feng’s speed was simply too fast!
Li Feng, you… Li Yong’s expression changed greatly. He never expected Li Feng to know there were people ambushed in the forest. Even more, he never expected Li Feng to kill them so easily, right under his nose, without him even having time to react.
Surprised? Li Feng sneered and looked at Li Yong. He said: Li Yong, did you not want to fight me? Then I will first deal with this trash so they do not get in the way later.
Li Feng, you are very good. Li Yong gritted his teeth and glared at Li Feng.
I, Li Feng, have always been very good. Li Feng smiled. Then he looked at Li Yong and said: I just do not know whether you, Li Yong, are an idiot or a fool. The night before last, so many people could not take me down. Do you really think just you and your trash subordinates can handle me?
You… Li Yong’s expression changed.
Li Yong, are you very angry right now? Hmph. If you want to keep me here, there is a price to pay. I actually hope you bring all your trash subordinates here. I will kill them all. Only then can I feel at ease. Li Feng said coldly.
Li Feng, do you think I came here today with so little preparation? Li Yong said coldly.
Haha. Li Feng laughed with a face full of disdain: Li Yong, even if you have more tricks up your sleeve, so what? In the face of absolute strength, any trick is just a paper tiger. Moreover…
At this point Li Feng paused. He glanced at Li Yong and continued: Moreover, do not think I look down on you. With your strength, at most you are acquired ninth layer. Do you think you can keep me here? I think your strength is even worse than Wei Kang from Eagle Eye.
But since you, Li Yong, are after all from the Li family, even if only collateral, this young master is magnanimous. As long as you leave Li Wu now and pledge loyalty to me, I guarantee I will not kill you. I will even let you enjoy luxury, wealth, and glory.
You are dreaming.
Li Yong looked coldly at Li Feng. The anger in his eyes had reached the point of eruption.
Li Feng looked at Li Yong with a cold smile. He stared back without showing any weakness.
Their gazes clashed in the air like swords and blades. The aura around them kept rising.
A great battle was about to break out.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…
Just as Li Feng was about to make a move against Li Yong, three figures appeared silently beside Li Yong.
Among these three, one was an old man, one was a middle-aged man, and the other was a young man.
Li Feng’s gaze fell on the three. His expression became more serious than ever. Especially toward that old man. Although he looked ordinary with dull eyes, if one looked carefully, one could see hidden killing intent in those eyes. His entire being seemed to merge with heaven and earth, giving off a powerful sense of oppression.
Li Feng felt that this old man standing there gave him an unfathomable feeling.
Suddenly, something occurred to Li Feng. His expression changed greatly: Half-step innate? Or an innate expert?
Li Feng’s eyesight was sharp. The moment this old man appeared, he knew the old man’s strength was far beyond acquired ninth layer. At least half-step innate, possibly even an innate expert.
You are Li Feng? Just as Li Feng thought, this old man was a half-step innate ancient martial artist.
Who are you? Li Feng asked coldly. This old man appeared together with Li Yong. Could he be someone sent by Li Xiangyang? If he really was from Li Xiangyang, then Li Xiangyang’s actions were too fast. In less than a day, he had already summoned an ancient martial artist who was at least half-step innate.
You do not need to know who I am. The old man said coldly.
So you are a nameless old turtle who dares not reveal his name. Li Feng sneered. He began guessing the old man’s identity in his heart.
What did you say? The old man immediately flew into a rage.
Did you not hear me clearly? Old turtle. Li Feng said coldly.
Li Feng, very good. I will tear you into ten thousand pieces in a moment. The old man took a deep breath. He looked coldly at Li Feng and said.
Haha, old turtle, do you have the ability? An old turtle with one foot already in the coffin dares to trouble me. Hmph. Since you want to die, I will send you on your way. Li Feng sneered and said.
Arrogant. The old man snorted coldly. His gaze turned icy as he stared at Li Feng. As soon as he finished speaking, an extremely powerful aura erupted from his body and enveloped Li Feng. It was like a massive mountain trying to crush Li Feng to death.
Unfortunately, although the old man’s aura was powerful, it had no effect on Li Feng at all.
Li Feng’s divine sense had already reached the innate realm. He had a certain immunity to the aura pressure of half-step innate or even innate realm experts.
Moreover, during the clash of auras with Du Wen in the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains last time, Li Feng had gained a deep understanding of innate realm aura.
This old man’s aura was slightly weaker than Du Wen’s. It seemed this old man was only half-step innate, not a true innate expert.
Half-step innate was something he could handle.
At this thought, killing intent surged in Li Feng’s eyes. He looked coldly at the old man and said: Arrogant? Because I, Li Feng, have the capital to be arrogant. You stand together with Li Yong. I suppose you are his backup plan? Very good. When I go back later, I will cut off one of Li Wu’s arms as punishment for you intercepting me.
You dare. The middle-aged man behind the old man changed colour.
In this world, there is nothing I, Li Feng, do not dare to do. Not only will I go back and cut off Li Wu’s arm, I will also leave you all a bloody lesson. Li Feng said coldly.
Just with you?
A trace of disdain flashed across the old man’s lips. His cold eyes stared fixedly at Li Feng. His plain gaze seemed to look at a dead man.
Or rather, in this old man’s eyes, Li Feng was already a dead man.
