When Chu Feng discovered that Song Xi was in danger, he immediately went to rescue him.
However, Chu Feng moved too hastily and did not notice that behind the stone platform at the summit of the Heavenly Peak, the one used to replace the token, there was another special section.
That section was specifically meant for engraving words.
And there, the four characters Dugu Ling Tian were still engraved.
……
After Chu Feng obtained the crystal token, he was able to observe everything happening on Snow Domain Heavenly Peak.
But that sensation only lasted for an instant before disappearing.
Although Chu Feng leapt down and arrived at the lower half of Snow Domain Heavenly Peak, he was still unable to determine Song Xi’s exact location for the time being, and could only search around the mountain.
……
While Chu Feng was searching for Song Xi, Song Xi had already been knocked to the ground by two Southern Sparrow Court disciples.
Fang Yunshi even stepped on Song Xi’s face.
He humiliated him in public.
“Song Xi, just you, and you want to compete with me?”
“Hand over the Ice Dew Crystal Stone at once.”
It turned out that in the area where Fang Yunshi and Song Xi were cultivating, rewards also appeared after cultivation. This reward was an Ice Dew Crystal Stone.
The Ice Dew Crystal Stone contained the energy of heaven and earth and was somewhat helpful for martial cultivation.
However, for cultivators at their level, the help was not particularly great.
But the Ice Dew Crystal Stone was unique. In this area, only the person with the highest comprehension could obtain it.
It was more of a symbol of honour.
This time, the Ice Dew Crystal Stone appeared directly in front of Song Xi.
When the Ice Dew Crystal Stone fell into Song Xi’s hands, Fang Yunshi was naturally unwilling to accept it and tried to seize it by force. Song Xi did not back down, so the two began fighting.
Originally, Fang Yunshi did not gain the upper hand when fighting Song Xi alone.
But coincidentally, there was another Southern Sparrow Court disciple here at the level of fourth rank Supreme Exalted.
Seeing that Fang Yunshi was losing, this person immediately took action and even launched a sneak attack on Song Xi.
Song Xi was unprepared and was successfully ambushed, suffering serious injuries.
With the two joining forces, Song Xi quickly fell into a disadvantage.
In fact, apart from the Northern Mystic Court and the Southern Sparrow Court, there were also disciples from the Eastern Dragon Court and the Western Tiger Court present.
However, they were all the type who enjoyed watching trouble. They did not care who was right or wrong and merely stood aside to watch, with no one stepping forward to intervene.
“Senior Brother Song, give it to them. It is only an Ice Dew Crystal Stone.”
Seeing Song Xi in such poor condition, Wang Ziyan began to persuade him in secret.
“The Ice Dew Crystal Stone chose me, so it is mine.”
“You are forcibly seizing my item, which violates the sect rules. I will report this truthfully to the Guardian later.”
Song Xi showed an unyielding expression and had no intention of handing over the Ice Dew Crystal Stone.
“Report it to the Guardian?”
“To report it, you need someone to testify for you.”
“Here, who would be willing to testify for you?”
As Fang Yunshi spoke, he glanced at the people around them.
“It has nothing to do with us. We were focused on cultivation and saw nothing.”
“That is right, do as you like.”
The disciples of the Eastern Dragon Court and the Western Tiger Court said with smiles.
They were not afraid of Fang Yunshi, they simply did not want to meddle in other people’s affairs.
Fang Yunshi had actually anticipated this situation long ago. There were not many disciples in the Wolong Martial Sect with a strong sense of justice.
Moreover, these people all knew that Fang Yunshi had Bi Jingjing and Xia Ran backing him.
No one was willing to offend him for the sake of someone like Song Xi from the Northern Mystic Court.
Since the others would not interfere, that left only the Northern Mystic Court disciples.
“Wang Ziyan, Hei Yao, are you going to testify?”
Fang Yunshi looked at Wang Ziyan and Hei Yao and the other Northern Mystic Court disciples.
Song Xi also turned his gaze toward Wang Ziyan and Hei Yao.
Wang Ziyan and Hei Yao avoided Song Xi’s eyes, turning their heads away without saying a word.
“I am asking you a question. Are you mute?”
Suddenly, Fang Yunshi shouted loudly, his words full of threat.
“I would not dare, Senior Brother Fang. I saw nothing.”
Wang Ziyan spoke first, shaking her head repeatedly.
The other Northern Mystic Court disciples also hurriedly expressed their stance.
“Senior Brother Fang, it was this Song Xi who seized Senior Brother Fang’s Ice Dew Crystal Stone. Senior Brother Fang is merely taking back what belongs to him.”
Immediately after, Hei Yao also stated his position.
However, compared with Wang Ziyan and the others, Hei Yao’s statement went too far.
He chose to lie and directly sided with Fang Yunshi.
Yet this behaviour greatly pleased Fang Yunshi.
“Very good. Junior Brother Hei understands the situation.”
Fang Yunshi nodded in satisfaction.
Then he reached into Song Xi’s robes and took out the Ice Dew Crystal Stone that Song Xi had been carrying.
This time, Song Xi did not resist, not because he lacked the ability to resist.
It was because he had completely given up, and what filled his face was pain.
What pained him was not the loss of an Ice Dew Crystal Stone, nor the humiliation.
What truly hurt him was that when he faced danger, not a single person he trusted stood on his side.
Whoosh.
However, just as the Ice Dew Crystal Stone was taken out by Fang Yunshi, it flew away on its own.
Following it with their eyes, everyone saw the Ice Dew Crystal Stone land in the hand of someone not far away.
“Chu Feng?”
Seeing that person, everyone’s expression changed.
After all, following the earlier scene where Xia Ran had targeted Chu Feng, nearly all the disciples cultivating here had come to recognise Chu Feng.
“Chu Feng, is he not a bottom grade talent? How could he also reach this level?”
Seeing Chu Feng, the onlookers immediately began discussing among themselves.
Chu Feng had been the first to be teleported away. Everyone had assumed that he would be at the very bottom of Snow Domain Heavenly Peak.
According to the rules of Snow Domain Heavenly Peak, the level to which one was teleported was supposed to be one’s limit. In theory, Chu Feng should not have been able to reach this place.
What they did not know was that Chu Feng had been here for a while already, he had simply not revealed himself immediately.
“In broad daylight, robbing a fellow disciple’s belongings.”
“Fang Yunshi, your courage is truly impressive.”
Chu Feng toyed with the Ice Dew Crystal Stone in his hand while looking at Fang Yunshi.
“If we are talking about courage, it is you, Chu Feng, who has the greater courage.”
“I originally planned to find you later down below, but I did not expect you to deliver yourself to me.”
“Chu Feng, you have repeatedly defied me. It is time for us to settle this account.”
“Now, I will let you experience the taste of taking a punch.”
Whoosh.
After Fang Yunshi finished speaking, he stepped forward. His entire body blurred and instantly transformed into a streak of light, charging straight at Chu Feng like lightning.
“Chu Feng.”
Seeing Fang Yunshi attack Chu Feng, Song Xi became anxious and struggled to stand up to help.
But before he could rise, he was kicked hard back to the ground.
It was done by the other Southern Sparrow Court disciple at the level of fourth rank Supreme Exalted.
Aagh.
Immediately after, another scream rang out.
Following the sound, everyone discovered that the one who had screamed was actually Fang Yunshi.
