“Don’t kill me. If you kill me, my master will never let you off.”
Hun Yong said to Chu Feng.
“Relax, I won’t kill you right now.
I want everyone to know the truth first.”
Having said that, Chu Feng swept his gaze across the crowd.
“Your bloodline power was absorbed, correct?
Then Hun Yong told you it was the work of the two ladies inside the immortal cave, and you all believed him without question?
So if Hun Yong told you he was your father and that he gave birth to every one of you, would you believe that too?”
Chu Feng asked loudly.
Nobody answered. They were simply afraid of him.
Yet his words still infuriated them, because they felt he was openly mocking their intelligence.
“A bunch of idiots.
Use your brains for once.
After your bloodline power was taken, what state were your bodies in? Now look at Hun Yong.
Think carefully. Before I injured him, did he show the slightest sign of weakness?”
Chu Feng continued.
“This…”
His words caused everyone to fall into thought.
At first, Hun Yong had been lying on the ground just like them, appearing equally feeble.
Yet suddenly he stood up, began rallying everyone to break the boundary, and urged them to kill the two “thieves” inside the immortal cave.
Then he threw himself wholeheartedly into dismantling the boundary. Compared to his earlier “weakness”, the difference was stark.
Previously, blinded by rage and incited by Hun Yong, they had not paid much attention to his condition. Now, however, they sensed something amiss.
“You are all martial cultivators. Look closely at this boundary. Can it truly be shaken by brute martial force alone?
Why has it suddenly grown so much weaker? Was it really because of your combined attacks?
Let me tell you the truth.
All of your attacks were useless. Even Hun Yong’s attacks were useless.
The reason the boundary weakened is indeed because of Hun Yong, but he did not rely on martial power. He relied on this.”
With those words, Chu Feng seized Hun Yong’s arm.
In front of everyone, he pulled up his sleeve.
Now everyone could see the treasure hidden inside Hun Yong’s sleeve.
“Do you see? Hun Yong was able to damage the boundary because of this.
And the thing that absorbed your bloodline power was also this.”
Chu Feng held up the treasure for all to see.
“So it was Hun Yong who stole our bloodline power?”
“No wonder we are so weak while he was full of energy.”
Only after seeing the treasure did the crowd finally understand.
“Don’t listen to his nonsense! He’s framing me! How could I possibly take your bloodline power?”
Seeing the situation turn against him, Hun Yong hurriedly tried to defend himself.
“Uwaa—”
Yet the moment he finished speaking, he spat out a huge mouthful of blood.
“Still refusing to admit it?
It doesn’t matter. Whether you confess or not makes no difference to me.
I only wanted everyone to see your true face. Whether they believe me or not is irrelevant.
But I have done what I needed to do. Now you can die.”
As Chu Feng spoke, killing intent poured from his body.
“No, no, don’t kill me! It was me, I did it all! I admit it, isn’t that enough?”
Seeing this, Hun Yong immediately begged for mercy.
He could feel that Chu Feng was not bluffing. He really intended to kill him.
“Oh? Since you admit it, then explain everything you know clearly.
Let everyone understand exactly what happened.”
Chu Feng narrowed his eyes and spoke to Hun Yong.
“It was me and Hun Lei working together from inside and outside. I used the treasure to absorb everyone’s bloodline power and then transferred it to Hun Lei. Our aim was to activate the formation eye beneath these mountains and use it against those two ladies.
Those two ladies are not thieves at all. They were deceived into coming here by the Master of Tyrant Star Villa. The Villa Master wanted to exploit the special power within their bodies to temper the Tyrant Star Immortal Grass.
But the two ladies proved too strong. They actually seized control of part of the formation here. With no other choice, Tyrant Star Villa sent me and Hun Lei into the forbidden ground to help refine those two ladies, using their power to temper the Tyrant Star Immortal Grass.
All of you were simply being used by us.
There never was any thief, and there was never any plan to capture a thief alive.
The reason you were all lured here was to borrow your bloodline power to activate the formation eye, then use that eye to refine the two ladies.
Brother, I have told you everything, the things I should say and the things I shouldn’t. I haven’t hidden a single word. Please spare me, I beg you, I don’t want to die.”
Tears and snot streaming down his face, Hun Yong spilled the entire truth.
“That bastard Villa Master of Tyrant Star Villa actually used us like this!”
“We wrongly blamed those two ladies!”
For a moment, the crowd seethed with fury, curses ringing out endlessly.
But now that they knew the truth, their abuse was no longer directed at Immortal Moon. It was aimed at Tyrant Star Villa, Hun Lei, and Hun Yong.
Once Hun Yong had revealed everything, Chu Feng did not take his life. Instead he clenched his fist. Puchi. Hun Yong’s dantian was completely crushed.
Destroying his cultivation and letting him live in agony seemed to Chu Feng a far crueler punishment.
“You… you beast! I told you everything, yet you still crippled my cultivation!”
Hun Yong wailed even more miserably now, yet he lay on the ground with no one showing him the slightest sympathy.
As for Chu Feng, he naturally felt no pity.
Anyone who harboured killing intent toward Su Rou and Su Mei had to pay this price.
“This aura?”
“Could it be?”
Suddenly, Chu Feng’s expression changed. He sensed a dangerous presence rapidly approaching.
