My Cold and Elegant CEO Wife - Chapter 993

Chapter 993: Defeat With One Attack

 

“What a merciless woman,” Qingfeng stared at Hongling Mu, who was stabbing her sword towards his heart.

Whiz!

Qingfeng made a swift jump and dodged the sword.

Although Hongling seemed to have a strong attack, Qingfeng could easily skip past her since he could read her movements easily.

Hongling felt embarrassed after failing twice, since she had claimed that she was going to beat Qingfeng within three attacks. She had already attacked twice and only had one chance left.

The other female disciples were shook since they didn’t expected that Qingfeng was powerful enough to dodge two attacks consecutively.

“Hongling’s Sword Technique,” Hongling grunted as she started to transfer her vital essence from her body into the sword. She decided to attack with her personalized sword technique directly this time as it is three times more powerful than her last attack.

The hope that Hongling had for hitting Qingfeng this time was crushed really soon. Qingfeng dodged her attack again by slightly stepping backwards.

“Three attacks already, you really are too incompetent,” Qingfeng sneered at her with disdain.

Hongling was pissed after hearing what he said. She felt her body was burning after receiving Qingfeng’s humiliating insults.

Besides her, the other female disciples also felt the same way. They thought Qingfeng would definitely lose after three attacks by Hongling, but now, he had dodged all the attacks while still staying unharmed.

Qingfeng took out his Red Fiery Sword. It released a thirty-meter-tall sword energy bolt that split the sky and cracked the earth around him.

The Red-Fiery Sword’s second seal had been broken and it had become an Earthly Spiritual Device. The aura it carried on its own was strong enough to deter others.

“I’ll knock you down with my sword in one attack,” Qingfeng said to Hongling.

Hongling almost felt her stomach explode in anger. She was the most talented female disciple out of the other five in the Hundred-Flower Palace, who was well-respected by the others. Yet, she was being treated as a weak dog in front of Qingfeng, who had claimed he could beat her in one attack? In your dreams!

Hongling sneered, “If you really do, I’ll leave the Hundred-Flower Palace.”

Qingfeng nodded and agreed on what she promised. He couldn’t wait to witness this woman leaving the Palace by herself.

Bang!

Qingfeng took a hard step and made a five-centimeter- deep hole on the solid marble stone. He indeed had undeniable strength.

In addition to his strength, his speed also shocked everyone. He had arrived in front of Hongling before anyone had realized it.

“Such impressive speed!” Hongling looked at him, startled by his movements.

Bang!

Qingfeng took out his Red Fiery Sword and launched out a fire bolt towards Hongling’s body.

Hongling was extremely guarded while facing this enormous momentum from the Red Fiery Sword. She clashed against Qingfeng’s sword with her own sword.

Crack!

The sword on Hongling’s hand had cracked into halves and fell to the floor.

My sword was snapped in half?

Hongling freaked out as she couldn’t believe her eyes. The sword from this dude was so invincible that it broke her sword so easily, like cracking an egg. She wasn’t his match at all.

After breaking Hongling’s sword, Qingfeng’s Red Fiery Sword moved to her neck. It could easily chop off Hongling’s head as long as it moved one more millimeter forward.

“You lost,” Qingfeng said calmly.

I…I actually lost!?

Hongling’s face turned pale.

“How is that possible? How could senior sister have lost?”

“How could this happen? Senior sister has already reached the final stage of the True Spirit Realm and is one level stronger than Qingfeng Li. How could she lost in one attack from him?”

“This stupid man is too powerful.”

All the female disciples were discussing about Qingfeng’s shocking performance.

“Hongling, you had said that you were going to leave Hundred-Flower Palace if I beat you with one attack. I did now, so leave,” Qingfeng said emotionlessly.

Hongling suddenly looked hopeless once she heard what Qingfeng said.

The Hundred-Flower Palace was where she grew up and she didn’t want to leave since she had a strong attachment with this place.

However, since she already made that promise at the beginning and it was heard by all the other disciples, she had to keep her promise.

At this point, the third elder stood up and spoke up for her, “Qingfeng, I am Hongling’s guardian. I won’t let her leave.”

Qingfeng frowned as he asked, “So everybody from this place only know how to bullshit? How prestigious are you acting as the third elder when you’re disciple won’t even keep her word?”

The Third Elder’s face changed as she felt uncomfortable being criticized by Qingfeng. She was used to lecturing others and have never been treated in this way before.

“Qingfeng Li, what just happened wasn’t a fair battle. I’m Hongling’s guardian and you are Flower Fairy’s. I should’ve been the one to fight the match with you,” the Third Elder said to Qingfeng emotionlessly.

Qingfeng frowned and replied back with a glance, “Well, if this is what you want, I will fulfill your wish.”

Both of them arrived at the center of the battle arena. The Third Elder was on the left side while Qingfeng was on the right. They were both glaring at each other with their swords in hand.

Whiz!

The Third Elder took out her whip, which was named the Crystal Soft Whip. It was a three-meter-long, black, metallic and stone whip, even though it looked more like a vine.

Normally, metals and stones were solid. Yet, this crystal steel soft rock was somehow different. Instead of a product on earth, it was the essence of a meteorite that fell on the earth’s surface after it hit the earth and had been tempered through the friction when it fell through the atmosphere.

During the process of refining the whip, the Third Elder didn’t use materials from Earth, but only the meteorite’s materials. It was a flexible rock that could cause severe injuries to others. Hongling’s guardian revealed such a formidable weapon since Hongling’s sword had been easily snapped by Qingfeng’s sword.

She believed Qingfeng wouldn’t be able to snap her Crystal Soft Whip no matter how powerful he was.

Whiz!

The Third Elder waved his rock whip towards Qingfeng while splitting the air around him. Qingfeng paid 100% attention at the moment since he realized the power of the whip. He waved out his Red Fiery Sword and hit against the Crystal Soft Whip.

Bang!

A tremendous force was released once the Crystal Soft Whip and Red Fiery Sword clashed together, and the power quickly expanded like an earthquake.

All the female disciples were frightened with their faces paling and they were forced to keep stepping backwards since they couldn’t stand the enormous shockwave.

Chapter 994: The Rupture of the Defensive Shield

 

“The peak of the True Spirit Realm? Are you actually a master of the peak of the True Spirit Realm?” Qingfeng asked while frowning.

The Third Elder laughed and looked down at Qingfeng, “Your realm is two ranks lower than me, so what can you offer in a fight against me?”

There were two reasons the Third Elder thought of to explain why Hongling lost the battle with Qingfeng. First, she hasn’t fully trained yet and secondly, she didn’t have a powerful spiritual device. Unlike her, who was not only physical stronger but also had her Crystal Soft Whip, which was a medium tier Earthly Spiritual Device

Qingfeng slightly rolled his wrist and grabbed his Red Fiery Sword tightly. He was about to attack first this time since he did feel some threat from the Third Elder.

“Volcanic Condensation,” Qingfeng groaned and used his sword technique.

He sliced down with his sword and formed a giant volcanic explosion with his vital essence.

The ethereal volcanic explosion flashed through the air while emitting steaming gas, sending scorching hot magma towards the Third Elder with an enormous force.

“Crystal Whip Technique.” The Third Elder lashed out with her whip and formed seven whip-like shadows with her vital essence.

This was the power of the Crystal Whip Technique—one attack can transformed into seven shadows.

The ground was rumbling while the seven whips clashed with the volcanic explosion. It split the air and formed multiple black holes due to the formidable power being released.

Qingfeng was shook when he witnessed his volcanic explosion be dissipated by the seven whip shadows. In this round, both Qingfeng and the Third Elder had gone even and neither had an advantage.

Qingfeng was frustrated since he didn’t expect his Volcanic Sword Technique, which was a powerful earthly-tier self-cultivation technique, would reac a draw with his opponent. This Hundred-Flower Palace’s old woman was indeed competitive.

The Third Elder frowned as she was even more frustrated that she couldn’t beat Qingfeng while being two realms stronger.

The female disciples were all shocked when they saw this scene. This stupid dude was so powerful that he could even block the Third Elder’s attack.

“Crystal Whip Glacier,” Third Elder controlled her water vital essence while lashing out with her Crystal Soft Whip. The water vital essence formed an enormous iceberg.

This was a thirty-meter high iceberg which emitted an icy coldness like an actual iceberg and was shoved towards Qingfeng.

“Volcanic Tumble,” Qingfeng released his second technique with his sword.

His vital essence formed a gigantic volcano that kept ejecting steaming magma.

All the female disciples opened their eyes wide and stared at the stage with pale faces. They felt the immense threatening power of both the iceberg and the volcano.

Boom…

Some smarter disciples noticed something was wrong and stepped back. However, it was too late—the attack between the iceberg and the volcano rumbled as a meteor struck the earth.

Tremendous power was unleashed in all directions simultaneously, hitting the closest disciple and making her lost consciousness.

The Hundred-Flower Palace’s Sect Master realized the emergency immediately. She slightly raised her right hand and formed a gigantic green light veil that protected the disciple from the other diffusing energy.

When the invincible force finally dissipated and both the iceberg and the volcano scattered, two colors appeared on the battle arena—white and red.

The white color was the frost formed by the iceberg and the red was the flame formed by the Volcano. Yet, neither of them had any power at the moment.

The iceberg was formed by water, which was the enemy of fire. Water countered fire and vice versa.

One could only defeat the other when one’s power was significantly stronge but now, Qingfeng was on a equal level as the Third Elder, so both the iceberg and volcano disappeared simultaneously.

Qingfeng and the Third Elder stared at each other at this point, since they knew they both owned earthly spiritual devices of comparable quality and wouldn’t be able to beat the other with only their weapons.

In fact, Qingfeng’s Red Fiery Sword had a higher rank than the Crystal Soft Whip, but he didn’t have an advantage over the Third Elder since he didn’t have as much vital essence as she did.

Certainly, Qingfeng still hadn’t used his last technique, the one that could definitely slay the Third Elder, since murder wasn’t allowed during the competition.

Third Elder retrieved her whip and yelled, “Waterfall Realm.”

An enormous waterfall was formed within 30 feet square. Yet, instead of water, the falls were filled with white ice blades.

There were at least a few millions of ice blades that resemble a gigantic white waterfall from afar. They split the air and flew towards Qingfeng, who was standing at the bottom of the falls.

“Storm Realm,” Qingfeng directly used one of his realm techniques.

He didn’t release the Gravity Realm since it would hasten the ice blades towards him at the bottom. He didn’t want to kill himself in that way.

In terms of the Inferno Realm, even though it did threaten the Waterfall Realm, it would only counterweigh the attack, which was proved previously by the attack between the Iceberg and the Volcano.

However, the Storm Realm was a different story. It would form a gigantic tornado and change the route and direction of the falling blades. What Qingfeng tried to do was to redirect the Third Elder’s attack back.

As Qingfeng expected, the gigantic tornado formed by the Storm Realm blew the waterfall all the way back to the Third Elder.

The Third Elder freaked out as she wouldn’t have expected her waterfall ice blades to reverse in direction. She didn’t have time to retrieve her attack since the blades were about to hit her.

Whiz!

The Third Elder channeled her vital essence energy hurriedly and formed a massive white Defensive Shield.

Boom…

Thousands of ice blades hit against the shield that it couldn’t stop trembling. As more and more cracks appeared on the surface, the shield finally burst.

What?! The Defensive Shield was going down?

The Third Elder freaked out.

Chapter 995: Defeating the Third Elder

 

The Defensive Light veil was cracked? The Third Elder freaked out and tried to form another one with her vital essence energy, but it was too late.

Whiz…

More than a dozen glacier blades survived the veil and they all landed on the Third Elder’s body, tearing apart her clothes. Blood started to flow out uncontrollably.

‘Lifting a rock and accidentally dropping it on his foot’, the Third Elder was a perfect example of the meaning behind this saying.

Her ice blades were supposed to injure Qingfeng yet they had done their damage on her instead.

The female disciples on the sides of the arena were surprised. They didn’t expect their admirable Third Elder would actually suffer a loss during her own attack. What a joke!

“Third Elder, you lost,” Qingfeng looked at her with a mocking laugh.

Compared to Qingfeng who was completely intact, the Third Elder was severely injured, which made the result pretty obvious

The Third Elder looked extremely frustrated after hearing what Qingfeng had said. He couldn’t believe that he was actually defeated by him.

The Hundred-Flower Palace’s Sect Master’s face also went blank. She assigned the Third Elder to be the Palace’s elder since she knew she had the powerm, yet she had just humiliated herself by getting hurt from her own attack.

The Third Elder felt humiliated since she could feel the ridiculing looks directed at her from the crowd. She left immediately since she didn’t have any face to stay there anymore.

She left Hongling whom she had attempted to help at the beginning on the spot since she was completely mortified.

“First round, Qingfeng won,” the Hundred-Flower Palace’s Sect Master announced the winner even if she was highly reluctant.

After all, this was an open, public battle that was visible to all the audience members. There was no way to lie or fake anything.

“Woo-ohh, Qingfeng won,” Little Cui happily exclaimed to Flower Fairy, who was sitting beside her.

Flower Fairy nodded with a blushing face. She could tell Qingfeng was definitely stronger than before in terms of both his fighting capacity and attack power.

Could a man undergo such a complete change in three days? Flower Fairy noticed that Qingfeng would always surprise her every time she met him. He was a magical man that could make miracles happen.

Meanwhile, Hongling’s face paled as if she had lost her family. She didn’t expect her guardian would be defeated, especially by Qingfeng.

“Hongling Mu, The Third Elder has lost. You should keep your word and leave the Palace,” Qingfeng said to her with a faint smile.

Hongling freaked out since something she was fearing the most was happening to her.

“Please don’t make me leave! I can do anything you want,” Hongling begged desperately.

Hongling had a strong attachment with the Hundred-Flower Palace. She was adopted by the people in the palace and grew up there since she was abandoned by her parents at a young age. She wouldn’t know what to do if she had to leave the Palace.

Qingfeng replied back to her after thinking for a second, “Well, you can stay here, but you have to be Flower Fairy’s maid and take care of her from now on.”

Excuse me? Be Flower-Fairy’s maid?

Hongling’s expression grew angry as she sensed Qingfeng’s humiliating intentions.

She was the top disciple out of the other five in the Hundred-Flower Palace. Did Qingfeng just treat her like a dog and tell her to serve Flower-Fairy? Are you kidding me?

“Hongling, if you don’t want to, you can leave too,” Qingfeng had no compassion for this type of woman.

“Alright, I’ll be Flower Fairy’s maid then,” Hongling finally nodded reluctantly with a pale face.

She had to force herself to be Flower Fairy’s maid since she indeed didn’t want to leave the palace.

Honestly, she slightly regretted what she did since she knew she got herself into this situation. If she didn’t try to pick on Flower Fairy all the time, Qingfeng wouldn’t have forced her into becoming Flower Fairy’s maid.

“No way, is senior sister Hongling really going to be Flower Fairy’s maid?”

“Who can she blame but herself, huh? She was the one trying to challenge Qingfeng.”

“Geez, what is that stupid man made out of? Why is he so powerful?”

All the female disciples couldn’t stop shivering after seeing what happened.

Hongling was the senior sister they admired. They all felt upset that she was beaten by Qingfeng so easily and was forced to become Flower Fairy’s maid.

The first round had ended and Qingfeng was the winner.

The second candidate going up onto the arena for the draw was Zhiruo Zhao–a girl in her early twenties. She had a delicate face, smooth skin, long hair and a slender figure.

She had a copper bell on her wrist that kept ringing whenever she walked, which was unexpectedly soothing.

Zhiruo arrived at the Hundred-Flower Palace and drew out a green bamboo stick with the name “Min Zhou” on it.

“Second round, Zhiruo v.s. Min Zhou,” Hundred-Flower Palace’s Sect Master said.

Meanwhile, two women walked up to the stage at the same time. The tall, skinny one was Min Zhou, though she did have good breasts and a pretty face.

Indeed, all the ladies in the Hundred-Flower Palace had stunning-looking faces, way more beautiful than any other girls out there.

Min Zhou had a flute as her weapon. It was a forty-centimeter-long green bamboo flute.

Certainly, the flute wasn’t made of any other regular bamboo. Instead, it was made of Spiritual Bamboo, which grew by absorbing natural air that became tough and strong while carrying spiritual essence.

Min Zhou aligned her flute to her lips and blew it with a breath infused with her vital essence, making a pleasant tune.

In fact, some tricks were hidden in these enjoyable sounds. It caused a soundwave type attack on one’s spirit, which could cause people to undergo a mental breakdown, unlike the conventional self-cultivation attacks.

The spirit was known as the mental center of the brain, which was one of the most vulnerable parts of the body.

Zhiruo definitely knew how terrifying this spiritual attack was. She started to lift up the copper bell on her wrist and rang some melodious tones.

Meanwhile, the bell shot out a white stream of mental attack which clashed against the attack from the flute.

Spiritual attacks are invisible to human beings and could only be felt by those with tremendous mental stability, like Qingfeng.

Qingfeng could feel the subtle vibration like his soul was being hit by a stick. He could clearly feel the powerful mental energy between these two women.

Chapter 996: Surge in Spiritual Strength

 

The spiritual attacks used by Zhiruo and Min didn’t create any sounds after they clashed against each other, though both of them took a step back.

Min spat out a mouthful of blood that quickly dyed her clothes red.

Min was lost in this round of spiritual attacks. Meanwhile, some of the other female disciples were extremely confused since they had simply seen Min spit a mouthful of blood out after the flute’s and bell’s ringing sounds occurred.

Spiritual attacks were invisible and hard to avoid and some disciples had no clue what had just happened as if they were exposed to a brand new aspect of combat.

“Second round, Zhiruo won,” announced the Hundred-Flower Palace Sect Master.

The third contestant was Rong Li and her opponent was Ziyi Wang.

After a short battle, the result came out with Rong Li as the victor.

So far, Flower Fairy, Zhiruo Zhao, Rong Li were the remaining three out of the six most powerful female disciples. The new Saintess for the Hundred-Flower Palace would be selected among them.

Qingfeng got the first draw since he had won the battle in the first round. His opponent was Zhiruo, the girl with the bell on her wrist that could cause tremendous spiritual damage.

Qingfeng was standing on the stage while looking serious. He barely knew anything about spiritual attacks since all that he learned was the practice of self-cultivation.

Zhiruo slightly shook the bell on her wrist and released a green stream of soundwaves. It was destructive enough to penetrate Qingfeng’s brain, wanting to destroy his soul.

Qingfeng felt like his brain was splitting apart as if his spiritual energy was severely damaged, as sweat started to drip down along his pale face.

Flower Fairy started to worry and tightened her little hands when she saw Qingfeng was struggling.

Little Cui asked beside her, “Qingfeng is injured now, what should we do?”

Flower Fairy shook her head and replied helplessly, “This is a battle. I can’t do anything unless Qingfeng gives in.”

Would Qingfeng give in? Absolutely not! He was never a quitter.

Boom!

Qingfeng heard a tremendous rumble from within his soul as if his brain was splitting from deep inside. A Golden Dragon Phantom was shout out from the Golden Globe in his mind. This was the spiritual energy from the Fire Dragon.

The Fire Dragon hid deep inside Qingfeng’s mind and wouldn’t come out until he was in danger.

He opened his mouth as he ate all of the energy from Zhiruo’s spiritual attacks directly and turned it into his own spiritual energy.

The Fire Dragon was one of the most formidable Godly Dragons in the world and was still a Godly Dragon even though he was severely injured and was only left with a remnant of a soul after the World War thousands of years ago. A lean camel was still bigger than a horse, and the remnant of the soul of the Godly Dragon could still devour Zhiruo’s spiritual attacks.

Certainly, the Fire Dragon didn’t just eat it all by himself. He left a part of the spiritual energy for Qingfeng after he swallowed Zhiruo’s spiritual attack…

After, Qingfeng’s brain also absorbed a part of the spiritual energy, and he suddenly felt his spiritual energy multiply.

There were different categories among spiritual energies. They varied from the lowest to the top of the first grade, to the second grade…third, fourth… up to the ninth grade.

The first grade was the lowest and ninth grade was the strongest. In addition, each grade was also divided into the beginner stage, middle stage, and advanced stage.

The higher the spiritual energy, the stronger the attack power, and the more powerful the person was.

Qingfeng’s original spiritual energy stayed in the beginner stage, but he now had upgraded to the middle tier after absorbing Zhiruo’s spiritual energy.

“Buddy, let me teach you a secret spiritual technique—the Spiral Waves,” a voice spoke in Qingfeng’s mind

“The Spirit is invisible, you can’t see it but they are there in an ethereal form. You can navigate it with the Spiritual Secret Technique from your brain and form the Spiral Waves…” The Fire Dragon was teaching Qingfeng how to form the Spiral Waves.

Qingfeng picked this technique up in a second with his naturally strong comprehension skills. However, he still pretended to be injured to try and trick Zhiruo.

“Qingfeng, you are at the mercy of my Spiritual Attacks. Just give in,” Zhiruo said.

Meanwhile, QIngfeng had already formed his Spiral Waves. He looked at Zhiruo with a weird, funny smile while calculating the trajectory of the Spiral Waves in his mind.

Zhiruo loosened her guard since she couldn’t possibly have foreseen Qingfeng learning a spiritual attack during the fight. She had no clue that danger was coming for her at this exact moment.

Qingfeng formed a green spiral wave with the spiritual energy in his mind. It was a rapid spiritual attack that penetrated Zhiruo’s brain in a flash.

Zhiruos’ spiritual mind was smashed and torn apart. She screamed in pain as her soul was damaged.

She couldn’t move since her spiritual energy was severely hindered so she now had no choice but to stay in the same spot.

Bang!

Qingfeng rushed up to her and kicked her butt off the arena without mercy nor hesitation.

How rude! All the disciples were shocked when they saw what Qingfeng did. This man was indeed brutal. He actually kicked their senior sister out of the arena on her butt.

What a poor girl, the spot where Qingfeng kicked her on her butt must hurt a lot. He was such a jerk! All the disciples were furious about his behavior.

Why would you have to kick our senior sister’s butt when you could kick other parts? How would she get over this shame?

Besides those disciples, even little Cui was a bit mad. “Fairy, how could Qingfeng kick a lady’s butt. He is such a jerk,” little Cui complained angrily to Flower Fairy.

Flower Fairy also didn’t know how to react to Qingfeng’s rudeness, though she decided to ignore little Cui and not comment since Qingfeng was fighting for her.

Zhiruo, who had stood up after landing outside the arena, was filled with anger and shame. Her face had flushed red, like a glass of wine, because of her anger.

“How dare this stupid jerk hurt my butt,” Zhiruo was pissed while rubbing her burning butt. She wanted to beat the crap out of Qingfeng but she had to calm herself down since she wasn’t strong enough to do that.

She was livid once she recalled how Qingfeng had pretended to be injured and not know how to use spiritual attacks.

“You do know how to attack one’s spirit. You are just a liar,” Zhiruo yelled while controlling her frustration.

What an asshole, who had not only kicked her butt but also tricked her.

Chapter 997: Consecutive Victory

 

Qingfeng shot a glance at Zhiruo without saying a word. Talking to losers was a complete waste of time to him.

Zhiruo began to feel humiliated once she saw how Qingfeng didn’t even spare a moment to talk to her. Yet, she couldn’t do anything since she had lost the battle.

“Qingfeng won,” the Hundred-Flower Palace’s Sect Master announced the result.

She was pretty upset about this result; she was mortified that her genius disciple was actually defeated by a dumb man. After all, these genius disciples were all trained by her.

“He won again? How did that happen?”

“Damn, our seniors sisters should work harder.”

“I know right? I hope that a senior sister can teach this arrogant dude a lesson by knocking him out.”

The crowd was shocked that Qingfeng had actually won without appearing to do anything and was mad that he was such a jerk to women.

Although Zhiruo had lost the match, her protector, the Second Elder, who was standing behind her, couldn’t accept this result. She stood up to try and challenge Qingfeng.

She was a fifty-year-old woman that still looked pretty even though she had crow’s feet. She was definitely a gorgeous-looking lady back in her younger days.

Fighting to be the Saintess wasn’t merely for reputation, it also gave the victor access to authority and resources.

In the Hundred-Flower Palace, the authority owned by the Saintess was right below the Palace Master. Greater authority meant first dibs to many greater benefits and resources such as money, elixirs, martial art techniques, and spiritual devices.

The Second Elder just needed a spiritual medicine before reaching her next breakthrough. However, the medicine was so precious that it was only accessible to either the Palace Lord or the Saintess, which was the reason why she had to get Zhiruo to win.

“Qingfeng Li, I challenge you to a match,” Second Elder walked out and said while frowning.

Qingfeng frowned as well, slightly frustrated. He had just beaten Hongling and had been challenged by her guardian – the Third Elder. Now, after he beat Zhiruo, he was again challenged by another guardian. Was this thing ever going to end one day?

After seeing Qingfeng standing there without saying anything, the Second Elder sneered, “Why, do you not have the guts to fight with me because you are afraid?”

Qingfeng smiled faintly and replied, “Well, if this is what you want, come on up.”

The Second Elder jumped up to the arena immediately like a flash and took out a little red drum. The drum was as small as a palm and was made of a Demonic Red Rhino’s skin.

The Red Rhino was a formidable demonic beast which could attack one’s spiritual energy.

The red drum was made of the Red Rhino’s skin, which could catalyze spiritual attacks by itself. With the power of the Second Elder, the attack power must be multiplied.

The Second Elder smacked at the red drum and produced multiple invisible soundwaves that diffused outwards. It was like oxygen – something you could not see but was indeed there.

Boom!

Qingfeng felt extreme pain in his brain since his mind had been assaulted by the Second Elder with her spiritual attack.

At this moment, the Fire Dragon in Qingfeng’s mind appeared again and devoured the spiritual attacks released by the Second Elder. Her spiritual attacks were as fragile as a piece of paper in front of the Fire Dragon’s aura.

After the Fire Dragon swallowed the spiritual energy, he left some for Qingfeng, like last time.

Qingfeng’s mind released a green light and swallowed the rest of the spiritual energy. Now, his spiritual energy had grown in size and acquired a deeper shade of color.

“Qingfeng Li, I have a more potent spiritual attack than Zhiruo. You are definitely injured now, so just give in,” the Second Elder said to Qingfeng.

Qingfeng glanced at her with disdain, “Dumbass.”

Dumbass?

Second Elder first paused for a second when she heard Qingfeng’s retort. She then became extremely mad after a couple of seconds. She glared at Qingfeng as if she was a volcano that could explode any moment.

She was furious since she was always respected and fawned over by her disciples in the Hundred-Flower Palace as one of the most prestigious seniors. Nobody had ever humiliated her, expect for Qingfeng.

Besides the Second Elder, the other disciples were shocked since they didn’t expect their honorable Second Elder would actually be insulted by Qingfeng. This dude was unbelievably bold.

“Qingfeng Li, how dare you slander me. I’m going to kill you with my spiritual energy,” the Second Elder yelled while looking mad.

“Come on, dumbass. Hit me with your spiritual energy,” Qingfeng said while laughing.

Was Qingfeng insane? Of course, not! He did that on purpose so that he could irritate the Second Elder into attacking him with her spiritual energy.

Qingfeng found out another secret – he could devour the other’s spiritual energy and gain greater power.

Indeed, the Second Elder became more furious after Qingfeng humiliated her again.

Bang Bang Bang…

The Second Elder continue hitting the red drum madly, sending multiple shockwaves towards Qingfeng.

Multiple soundwaves rushed into Qingfeng’s brain, wanting to tear apart his mind and turn him insane.

Spiritual energy was the most crucial energy in a human’s brain. One could turn insane once their soul is damaged and their control of their spiritual energy is crippled. The Second Elder must be holding extreme hatred towards Qingfeng to attack him in such an aggressive way.

Unfortunately, the Second Elder did not know that the more aggressively she attacked, the happier Qingfeng would be, since he was absorbing all of her spiritual attacks.

After the Fire Dragon devoured a part of the spiritual attacks, he kept a significant remaining amount for Qingfeng.

Qingfeng had now improved his spiritual energy from the middle stage of the first tier to the advanced stage after devouring such a high amount of energy.

With the advancement of his spiritual energy, his attack power also doubled, so now he could release two spiral waves instead of only one.

“Just keep going with your spiritual energy, dumbass,” Qingfeng yelled at the Second Elder.

Qingfeng did it on purpose since he knew the more he irritated the Second Elder, the more aggressively the Second Elder would attack him, which would ultimately allow him to absorb more spiritual energy.

The Second Elder continued hitting the drum crazily and released dozens of spiritual attacks towards Qingfeng’s brain. She was desperately trying to tear apart his soul.

Yet, Qingfeng wasn’t threatened by these attacks at all since he absorbed all of them and turned them into his own power. However, he later realized an issue—his spiritual energy suddenly stopped increasing after a certain amount of intake.

Chapter 998: The Power of Frost Ice Mirror

 

“Kid, the spiritual energy of the second elder is of the advanced level of the first grade and by swallowing her spiritual attacks, you have reached her level. You can’t get a higher level until you swallow higher quality energy.” The voice of Fire Dragon sounded in Qingfeng Li’s head.

At Fire Dragon’s explanation, Qingfeng Li had finally understood why he was not improving his spiritual energy quality anymore. Since he had reaped enough benefits, he decided to defeat the second elder.

“Spiral Double-edge Wave.” He focused his spiritual energy and formed two Spiral Waves which flashed into the mind of the second elder. The Spiral Double-edge Waves were like two sharp knives hacking her mind into two halves.

Ahh!

With a stifled groan and a trickle of blood appearing in one corner of her mouth, the second elder’s mind was severely damaged and her face turned white.

And like people who had their spiritual energy damaged, she became clumsy in her movements.

Quick as wind, Qingfeng Li moved behind her back and kicked her butt, sending her flying off the arena and landing face down on the ground.

All the surrounding disciples were stunned at the sight, mortified to see the usually dignified second elder being kicked on her butt and laying on the ground face down.

It was public humiliation. Bruised and disheveled, the second elder stood up from the ground, her eyes full of fury and hatred.

“You are defeated. It’s no use staring at me.” Qingfeng Li ignored her after one glance, thinking it a waste of time talking to a loser.

The Sect Master of the Hundred-Flower Palace was a bit angry at the sight of the pitiful second elder. She looked at Qingfeng Li with a chilling gaze.

Despite her anger, she announced, “The winner is Qingfeng Li.”

After defeating Zhiruo Zhao and the second elder, Qingfeng Li only needed to beat Rong Li before Flower Fairy reacquires the title of Saintess.

“The last match is Qingfeng Li against Rong Li,” the Sect Master of the Hundred-Flower Palace declared.

At the announcement, the audience began to talk among themselves.

“As the first elder’s disciple, Senior Sister Rong Li is very strong and I bet she will definitely defeat Qingfeng Li.”

“Right. The first elder is the strongest fighter besides the Sect Master and her disciple Rong Li is very powerful.”

“Go, go! Senior Sister Rong Li, beat that Qingfeng Li jerk.”

All of them were certain that Rong Li would defeat Qingfeng Li.

Standing on the arena, Qingfeng Li heard their words but he didn’t care a bit since he regarded everyone in the Palace as if they were beneath him, with the only exception of the Sect Master.

“Rong Li, this mirror is an earth-grade spiritual device and you can use it to fight Qingfeng Li,” the first elder handed Rong Li a mirror.

It was a white mirror the size of two palms with ancient mysterious flower patterns engraved on the back. It was clear that it was an antique.

The front side of the mirror was not made with glass but a special kind of white crystals left after an icy comet had collided on earth. It was only with such meteorite rocks that the first elder could make this mirror.

Among the billions of celestial bodies in the Milky Way above us, some of them would disintegrate and form meteorites. After crashing into Earth, they would leave special and precious materials that could not be found anywhere else on the planet.

Some strong fighters would make unrivalled treasures with these precious materials.

There were many categories of celestial bodies. The nature category included wind, rain, lightning, electricity, and ice, while the category of the five elements included metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

The category of weapons included celestial swords, celestial sabers, celestial clubs, and celestial hammers. The category of demon beasts were all remains of the ancient celestial beasts such as the azure dragon, white tiger, vermillion sparrow, black tortoise, phoenix, roc, nine-headed lion, and so on.

When the celestial bodies disintegrated, some small meteorite rocks crashed onto the earth and became treasures.

The mirror in the first elder’s hand was called the Frost Ice Mirror, made with meteorite rocks from the the Ice comet in the category of nature. Like Qingfeng Li’s Fiery Sword, the Frost Ice Mirror was also an earth-grade upper spiritual device.

With the Frost Ice Mirror in hand, Rong Li walked up onto the arena in excitement. She was a beautiful woman with a charming face, white skin, a cute nose, red lips, bright eyes, large breasts, slim waist, and straight long legs.

She was quite familiar with the background of the mirror, with which she was confident that she would defeat Qingfeng Li.

Qingfeng Li’s eyes sharpened when he sensed a frighteningly strong presence from the mirror.

“Qingfeng Li, come and have a taste of my Frost Ice Mirror.” Rong Li sneered, cold light flashing in her eyes.

Swoosh!

She channeled the vital essence energy in her body and infused it into Frost Ice Mirror which shot out a beam of white light toward Qingfeng Li with violent force.

Qingfeng Li leaped up as swift as an eagle and dodged the attack.

Puchi!

The white light beam missed Qingfeng Li and shot through the fifty-meter thick marble platform of the arena.

Qingfeng Li’s pupils contracted with shock. The attack of the mirror was so powerful that it even penetrated through a fifty-meter marble platform.

The surrounding people were also shocked since it was the first time that they witnessed the power of the Frost Ice Mirror.

“Senior Sister’s Frost Ice Mirror is invincible!”

“Yeah, I would never have withstood one strike of it.”

“Humph, Qingfeng Li dodged the attack but he will lose eventually.”

All the disciples had high hopes for Rong Li.

Klang!

Qingfeng Li drew the Fiery Sword which released a sharp sword aura of thirty meters long.

“Volcanic Explosion.” With a low shout, Qingfeng Li launched the third and, so far, the most powerful Volcanic Sword Technique he had mastered.

He knew that the less powerful sword techniques would be no match for Rong Li’s prowess.

The Fiery Sword ripped open the air and transformed into a volcano shadow with burning magma and violent energy. It crashed toward Rong Li.

With a cold smile, Rong Li infused her vital essence energy into the Frost Ice Mirror which shot another beam of white light into the volcanic shadow in the sky.

Chapter 999: Defeating Rong Li

 

Boom!

The white light beam and the volcano shadow crashed together with a loud boom, creating a big black hole which vanished instantly.

Deng, deng!!

They both took one step back, as neither of them could gain the upper hand.

Qingfeng Li narrowed his eyes, surprised that Rong Li had blocked the third Volcanic Sword Technique, which had been able to conquer all the enemies he had met so far.

Rong Li was also astonished that Qingfeng Li could stand up against the attack from Frost Ice Mirror, an earth-grade upper-level spiritual device.

They looked at each other grimly. With narrowed eyes, Qingfeng Li weighed his options since he had not played his best cards yet, the Conqueror’s Finger and Fire Dragon Fist.

He didn’t use those techniques because they were too aggressive; the Conqueror’s Finger could slice a person into two halves and the Fire Dragon Fist would burn one into ashes.

His purpose was to help Flower Fairy gain the title of Saintess, not kill people. If he killed someone, he would instantly lose all cordiality with the palace and Flower Fairy would never get the title.

Woosh!

Rong Li infused her vital essence energy into the mirror and another beam of white light tore through the air and shot at Qingfeng Li.

“Volcanic Explosion.” Qingfeng Li struck out with the third Volcanic Sword Technique and a huge volcano condensed from vital essence smashed toward the white beam.

Boom!

The white beam and the volcano mirage collided again with each other, releasing huge amounts of energy but ending in a draw.

They looked at each other grimly, knowing that neither could win the battle with spiritual devices of the same level.

They put away their weapons and turned to self-cultivation techniques.

“Frost Ice Palm!” Rong Li pushed out her right palm abruptly, which transformed into a white chilling glacier mirage, turning the surrounding air into frost as it slammed towards Qingfeng Li’s heart.

The Frost Ice Palm was a powerful spirit-grade advanced-level self-cultivation technique, very close to the earth-grade self-cultivation technique.

A huge white hole appeared wherever it went and in a blink of eye it was upon Qingfeng Li with a sharp whistling sound.

“Strangle Hell Fist.” Qingfeng Li activated his Mortal Purgatory Body, a set of immortal-grade fist techniques with which one could withstand the terrors of hell.

A huge fist the size of a small hill condensed from vital essence energy, smashing into the Frost Ice Palm and forcing Rong Li to retreat four to five meters.

Rong Li felt some numbness and pain in her palm and saw a trace of blood on the back of her hand.

Wounded. I was wounded. Looking at her palm, Rong Li’s mind was full of disbelief since she was a fighter of the pinnacle-stage of the True Spirit Realm, two stages higher than Qingfeng Li.

The only explanation was that her self-cultivation techniques were less powerful than Qingfeng Li’s.

Rong Li had no choice but to use the Frost Ice Mirror again.

At the sight of the mirror, Qingfeng Li drew his Fiery Sword since his Strangle Hell Fist was no match for it at his present stage.

Swoosh!

For the third time, Rong Li shot out a white light beam which was again blocked by the Red Fiery Sword.

The first elder, who was standing on the sideline, frowned, knowing that Rong Li would never beat Qingfeng Li with the same level spiritual device as him.

“Rong Li, you can break the seal on it by putting a drop of blood onto the mirror and tossing it into the air,” the first elder instructed Rong Li.

At her master’s words, Rong Li bit into her finger and dropped one drop of blood onto the Frost Ice Mirror before tossing it into the air.

Boom!

Emitting a burning beam of light, Frost Ice Mirror rotated in the air and released an overwhelmingly powerful presence.

Heaven-grade spiritual device! It was a heaven-grade spiritual device!

Qingfeng Li was horrified. He had heard from the Dark Night Emperor that only heaven-grade spiritual devices could levitate.

He also knew that the Red Fiery Sword was no match for the Frost Ice Mirror with only the second seal broken, but as a middle-stage True Spirit Realm fighter, he could not break the third seal on the sword.

“It seems that I have to play my best card.” Qingfeng Li decided to use the Conqueror’s Finger.

“One Finger Splits All,” He channeled the vital essence energy in his meridians into his finger tip.

He extended his right index finger abruptly and shot a beam of blue light, which ripped through the air in front of him and sliced into the Frost Ice Mirror with an incredibly violent force.

Crack!

With a crisp sound, a crack appeared on the mirror, which dimmed and then dropped onto the ground.

Qingfeng Li felt a pang of regret because his present cultivation level of the Conqueror’s Finger could only slice open people and spiritual devices beneath the Earthly Spirit Realm while the full power of the strongest Conqueror’s Finger technique had the ability to hack apart anything in the world.

Since the Frost Ice Mirror was already a heaven-grade spiritual device, he could only leave a crack on it instead of hacking it into two halves.

However, with a crack on it, the Frost Ice Mirror had lost its battle power.

What?! The Frost Ice Mirror was cracked! Rong Li looked as if she had seen a ghost. She had just broken the seal on the mirror with her blood and turned it into a heaven-grade spiritual device.

Even the Sect Master of the Hundred-Flower Palace, a master of the Earthly Spirit realm, could not have been able to block the attack from a heaven-grade spiritual device. How did Qingfeng Li do it as a mere middle-stage True Spirit realm fighter?

While she was still dazed with shock, Qingfeng Li move swiftly and kicked her on the bottom, sending her off the arena.

According to the rules, anyone who leaves the arena would lose the match.

“Rong Li, you lost,” with his hands crossed behind his back, Qingfeng Li looked at Rong Li under the arena and announced arrogantly.

Lost, I lost. Paled, Rong Li was dazed with shock and excruciating pain.

Chapter 1000: Receiving the Saintess Title

 

What?! Senior Sister Rong Li was defeated?!

All the surrounding disciples were stunned with disbelief when they witnessed their powerful Senior Sister had lost the match and was kicked off the arena.

The First Elder, Rong Li’s protector, stood up with a glint in her eyes. She walked onto the arena with the intention to challenge Qingfeng Li.

Knowing the great power Qingfeng possessed, the First Elder launched an attack as soon as she was on the arena.

“Wind-Edge Spirit Fist.” She whipped out her right fist abruptly and it transformed into a giant wind blade forty meters long which crashed at Qingfeng Li’s head with tremendous force.

It was a powerful fist strike from a half-step Earthly Spirit Realm fighter and could punch a big hole in a normal person’s head.

“Second technique, Mountain-Crushing Fist!” Sensing the powerful presence of the First Elder, Qingfeng Li launched the second Strangle Hell Fist Technique.

A giant mass of natural energy rose into the sky and collided into the Wind Edge Spirit Fist with tremendous force.

Boom!

Two fists clashed into each other with an earth-shaking sound, creating a huge black hole in the air.

Violent energy waves spread to the surrounding areas, upturning and blasting all the tables and chairs in front of the arena. Some disciples nearby were even thrown into the ground.

Deng!

The First Elder held her ground while Qingfeng Li was forced back one step; the First Elder gained the upper hand in the first round.

As a half-step Earthly Spirit Realm fighter, the First Elder was much more powerful than Qingfeng Li but he Li was forced back only one step, showing the great innate power of his self-cultivation techniques.

The more advanced the self-cultivation techniques were, the more powerful its combat strength was.

The First Elder focused her vital essence into her fist and launched another attack at Qingfeng Li, who again blocked it with the Strangle Hell Fist.

The Strangle Hell Fist was a set of immortal-level self-cultivation techniques, and Qingfeng Li had only learned the first two techniques, which were already powerful enough to block the First Elder.

She turned pale when her attack was blocked again, as she realized that she couldn’t win with only self-cultivation techniques.

“Seven Blood Vine Bloodline.” With a low yell, she activated her bloodline powers.

Her eyes and skin turned red, emitting a blood red light, and above her head rose a shadow of a writhing seven blood vine.

Fifty meters high, it had seven giant red vines and emitted a horrible presence.

The Seven Blood Vine was a second-grade bloodline and it was the first time that Qingfeng Li encountered a second-grade bloodline.

“Devourer Bloodline.” Qingfeng Li activated his own bloodline.

The Devourer Bloodline transformed into a giant black vortex and devoured the mirage of the Seven Blood Vine, infusing its energy into Qingfeng Li.

His power raised to a new level, elevating him from the mid-stage to the pinnacle-stage of the True Spirit Realm. The First Elder’s second-grade bloodline was so powerful that it had pushed him two stages higher.

Puchi!

The First Elder spat out a mouthful of blood. She was severely wounded when her bloodline was swallowed and her essence blood had been seriously depleted.

Qingfeng Li never wasted any opportunities to beat his enemies. He leapt up in the air and flew toward the First Elder in a flash.

He punched hard onto the First Elder’s chest, breaking one of her ribs into two pieces.

Qingfeng Li was unrivalled on his level and could even challenge fighters one stage higher than him. A moment ago, he had just made another breakthrough so the injured First Elder was naturally no match for him.

Crack!

Qingfeng Li slammed his fist forward again and broke another rib, forcing another mouthful of blood out of her.

The First Elder felt a pang of regret for her Frost Ice Mirror, with which she might have been able to defeat Qingfeng Li. But unfortunately, it was broken and useless to her.

She was no longer a match for Qingfeng Li after the latter devoured her bloodline power.

Quick as a bolt of lightning, Qingfeng Li moved to her back and kicked her on her bottom, sending her off the arena.

The previous powerful First Elder was quite pathetic with her bloodline power swallowed, ribs broken, and bottom kicked.

“Are my eyes playing tricks on me? The First Elder was really defeated?”

“Yes, the jerk Qingfeng Li indeed defeated the First Elder.”

“I hate Qingfeng Li, but I have to admit he is really powerful.”

The surrounding people were all talking with astonishment in their eyes.

No wonder they were shocked since the First Elder was the strongest fighter besides the Sect Master.

The truth was that Qingfeng Li was no match for the First Elder in strength, but she made the mistake of using her bloodline against Qingfeng Li, not knowing that Qingfeng Li’s Devourer Bloodline was unrivalled.

Looking at the injured First Elder, the Sect Master of the Hundred-Flower Palace was angry, but she couldn’t deny the result with everyone watching.

“The winner is Qingfeng Li. The Saintess of the Hundred-Flower Palace will continuye to be Flower Fairy,” though displeased with the result, the Sect Master announced it anyway in a loud voice.

With a faint smile, Qingfeng Li walked down the arena to Flower Fairy, “I didn’t disappoint you. I took back the title of Saintess for you.”

Her face turned red with excitement, she squeezed out a timid ‘Thank you!’

The Saintess of the Hundred-Flower Palace was not a mere title; she had access to all sorts of resources of the palace such as elixir, martial techniques and spiritual devices, etc..

The reward for the title this time was a rare vital essence pill which could help her break through into the True Spirit realm.

She took the vital essence pill from the Sect Master of the Palace. It was a blue pill the size of a thumb with an intense blue halo radiating off of it.

She put the pill into her mouth and it turned into a surge of energy entering her meridians, muscles and bones. It finally came to the Dantian and condensed into a spirit core.

Boom!

A tremendous power emitted from her body and she went directly into the late-stage of True Spirit realm.

The vital essence pill was really powerful as it had sent Flower Fairy directly from the Higher Heaven realm into the late-stage of the True Spirit realm.

“Flower Fairy, congratulations to your breakthrough into the True Spirit realm,” with a smile, Qingfeng Li said to her.

Chapter 1001: Wedding Discussion with Xue Lin

 

Flower Fairy’s alluring face blushed in response to Qingfeng’s congratulations. She was joyful to have finally returned to the True Spirit Realm.

For self-cultivators, to have recovered their strength was like as if they had gained another life, so this should be celebrated.

“Thank you,” Flower Fairy replied with thankfulness.

She knew that this was all due to Qingfeng’s help. If it weren’t for Qingfeng, she would have been doomed.

Qingfeng smiled and said, “Your level was lowered because of me, so I am obligated to help.”

“Come with me.” Flower Fairy smiled beautifully and led Qingfeng into another room.

Only saintesses could live in this spacious room, so she could only have returned now. Flower Fairy carefully pulled out a secret book from a box; it read “Dragon Steps”. It was a beginning stage Earthly Spirit tier technique, and only palace masters and saintesses could train in it.

Qingfeng’s face lit up when he saw this movement technique. He had already acquired both the attack and the defensive self-cultivation practices, but lacked physical practice. This was a speed physical technique that could improve one’s movement.

Qingfeng opened the jade scroll and inspected the inside. He saw the precise training scrolls of the “Dragon Steps”.

Qingfeng had a great memory and understanding. With one look, he remembered all of the techniques written inside.

Swoosh swoosh swoosh…

The soles of Qingfeng’s feet moved around on the ground, sometimes towards the east, then the west, north, and south. He moved incessantly in all four directions.

His body moved endlessly and quickly in the room, like a moving dragon. The whole room filled with his figure.

Within the time it takes for one stick of incense to burn, Qingfeng had fully mastered the basic techniques of the “Dragon Steps.”

“You’re really a genius.” Flower Fairy smiled attractively and complimented him.

“What does the genius get for reward?” Qingfeng smiled

“What do you want?”

“A kiss.”

“You’re a pig,” Flower Fairy said as she shifted her eyes.

Qingfeng couldn’t just let this extremely attractive woman go. He pulled her by the waist and kissed her.

“You’re the worst,” Flower Fairy said as her cute face blushed.

Qingfeng didn’t care about Flower Fairy’s small revolt. He didn’t want to miss his chance, so he took full advantage.

“Qingfeng how dare you taint Flower Fairy?” Little Cui was filled with shock when she entered the saintess room with a cup of tea.

This Qingfeng was shameless in public in broad daylight! How dare he taint Flower Fairy?

Little Cui looked on with more shock than if an earthquake had hit her.

Flower Fairy immediately pushed Qingfeng aside when she heard Cui’s voice. Her alluring face blushed, and her heart was beating faster than a thousand war drums.

This Qingfeng is such a torture to be around. Now Little Cui has found out, what should I do? Flower Fairy might be powerful, but it was the first time this had happened, so she was left clueless.

Clearly, Qingfeng has had plenty of experience, he said, “Little Cui, Flower Fairy had a fly on her mouth. I was only helping her to get it off.”

Qingfeng was very intelligent, and had a fast response. He immediately came up with the fly excuse, because he has used it plenty of times before and had gotten away with it.

Fly?

Little Cui frowned and was confused. The Hundred Flower Palace was cool all season round, why would there be flies?

Little Cui examined around, and couldn’t find a fly anywhere, her face filled with confusion and unhappiness.

“Little Cui look, here is the fly.” Qingfeng smiled as he reached out with his right hand as fast as lightning, and caught a fly in the air.

Hmm, it really is a fly?

Little Cui didn’t know how to respond as she looked at the fly in Qingfeng’s hand. There really were flies.

Qingfeng couldn’t kiss Flower Fairy anymore in front of little Cui, so he had a brief conversation and left.

Flower Fairy personally saw Qingfeng off at the gate, and had hints of reluctance in her eyes.

Flower Fairy and Qingfeng had experienced many things together, and this time Qingfeng had helped her regain her title of Saintess. She naturally had sentiments beyond friendship for Qingfeng.

Qingfeng left the Hundred Flower Palace and got on a flight back to Eastern Sea city.

Eastern Sea city.

Qingfeng didn’t go to the company, but rather going straight back to Noble Palace’s Villa number 13.

Xue Lin didn’t go to work today. Instead, she sat on the sofa and looked at the wedding album.

Xue was very beautiful, her face was cold but sophisticated, and her skin was glowing white.

She sat there gracefully and breathed out traces of allure.

“Wife, I’m back,” Qingfeng said as he opened the door.

Xue turned around when she heard Qingfeng. Her alluring face had hints of excitement, even though Qingfeng hadn’t left for too long, she still missed him

She was deeply infatuated with Qingfeng; she thought of him everywhere and anytime.

Qingfeng asked, “What are you looking at?”

“The wedding photos we took last time.” Xue took out her soft pink hands and waved the wedding pictures in her hand.

“The wedding didn’t happen as planned last time, so let’s host another one.” Qingfeng smiled as he sat beside Xue and held her soft hands.

Xue nodded, her attractive face blushing. She was overwhelmed with happiness inside, as she had wanted to have another wedding with Qingfeng, after their last one was canceled.

Qingfeng and Xue discussed the time for the wedding and reached the conclusion that a week later seemed to be a lucky day.

Ding ding ding…

Qingfeng’s cellphone rang, he took it out and saw that it was from Wushuang Nie the Sword King. His expressions grew suspicious as Nie was supposed to be in Europe. Why was he calling?

Qingfeng knew that Sword King Nie wouldn’t call unless it’s an emergency. He immediately picked up.

On the other end of the phone, “Qingfeng a precious gem has appeared in the forbidden district of Kunlun Mountain. There were various lights from the district and I suspect it will open in three days.”

What, the Kunlun Mountains will open in three days?

Qingfeng’s face changed when he heard, his eyes filling with shock, then surprise. This is a good news.

Qingfeng’s father was trapped inside the forbidden Kunlun Mountains by an King level array. Now that the forbidden district had been released, he could save his father.

However, when Qingfeng remembered the wedding with Xue, his eyes filled with regret. If he entered the forbidden Kunlun Mountain district, then he wouldn’t be able to have the wedding with Xue.

“Dear, do you have to go to forbidden Kunlun district in three days?” Xue blinked her eyes, as her attractive face filled with unwillingness.

Honestly Xue didn’t want Qingfeng to go to the forbidden Kunlun district. She wanted to have the wedding with him and officially become his bride.

Chapter 1002: Forbidden Kunlun Mountain District

 

Forbidden Kunlun Mountain District
“Honey, both my father and teacher are trapped inside the forbidden Kunlun Mountains. I have to go save them,” Qingfeng said.

Xue nodded, “If it’s your father and master you’ve to save, then go. I’ll support you.”

Xue knew that this would mean no wedding. She was disappointed, but she knew Qingfeng was going to save his father, so she didn’t intervene.

Qingfeng had a conversation with Xue, and then left the mansion. He had gone to the hospital to see Ruyan Liu, and also to say goodbye to her.

Inside the hospital.

Ruyan had the baby in her arms; her attractive face was flushed red because of the heat.

“Little apple, call mommy,” Ruyan said as she pouted her red lips.

Yah yah!!

Little apple’s cherry red lips opened and made two “yah” sounds. She was still small, so that was all she knew.

Little apple was very cute; her face was red as she made sounds. She looked very beautiful; one couldn’t help but to look at her more.

Qingfeng pushed open the room door and saw the baby making sounds. Her two soft white hands were waving incessantly.

“My baby girl can say yah yah now, come give daddy a hug,”Qingfeng smiled as he said to Ruyan.

Ruyan’s alluring face blushed, and she asked, “Why did you come back?”

“I’ve missed you and the baby, so I came back.” Qingfeng smiled as he looked at Ruyan and Little Apple.

“Here’s the baby.” Ruyan smiled attractively and passed Little Apple to Qingfeng.

“Yah yah yah…” Little Apple opened her mouth and yah-ed to Qingfeng. Her big eyes were filled with joy.

“Ruyan did you see? The baby recognizes me, she’s smiling at me.” Qingfeng smiled as he looked at Little Apple.

Qingfeng was joyous as Little Apple smiled at him; he felt wonderful being a father.

“Look at how happy you are,” Ruyan said while she looked at him alluringly.

Smooch!

Qingfeng kissed the baby’s cheeks, and said excitedly, “Little Apple, daddy will wait for you to grow up.”

“Ruyan, I’ve to leave in three days, this time might be quite a while.” Qingfeng turned to look at Ruyan with apology.

Ruyan was disappointed, she had only given birth to the baby not long ago. She wanted to spend more time with Qingfeng, and didn’t expect him to leave so fast.

“Qingfeng, will this trip be dangerous.”

“Relax, it will be fine.”

“Okay, please be careful.” Ruyan smiled alluring as she insisted. However, she was clearly reluctant.

“I will … I’ll go now.” Qingfeng smiled as he left the room.

Three days passed in a breeze. In these three days, all of Huaxia’s self-cultivators were aggravated, because of the unsealing of the forbidden Kunlun Mountains.

As one of the four major forbidden districts on earth, the Kunlun district was the most mysterious one in Huaxia. It was filled with many treasures, elixirs, spirit herbs, ancestral self-cultivation techniques, and training caves. There were plenty of unknown opportunities that drove self-cultivators insane.

In these few days, many of the hidden Huaxia freaks were tempted along with hidden self-cultivation sects. Many forces began preparing to enter the forbidden Kunlun district.

Huaxia self-cultivation sects were distinguished as: Spirit, Earth, Heaven, King and Emperor tiers…

The higher the self-cultivation sect tier, the more powerful they were.

Huaxia’s Heavenly Sword Sect, an earth-tier hidden sect, had gathered its most formidable people at the Heavenly Sword Sect Headquarters. The Heavenly Sword Sect Master, Tianjian Zhao, was discussing the opening of the forbidden Kunlun district with the Heavenly Sword Sect’s elders.

“Sect master, how many people should be bring into the forbidden Kunlun Mountain district?” the third Heavenly Sword elder asked.

“Bring the top one hundred ranking disciples.”

“Yes, sect master.” The third elder nodded.

Not only the Heavenly Sword sect, but others earth tier sect forces like the Black Blade Sect, Coiling Stone Sect, Wicked Sky Sect, and Demonic Blood Sect, along with spirit level self-cultivation sects, like the Sword Pavilion, Fiery Emperor Palace, Hundred-Flower Palace, and so on, all geared towards the Kunlun Mountains.

Qingfeng brought the Wolf Fang Team along as he headed towards the forbidden Kunlun Mountain district.

Meanwhile, Fiery Demon King and Purple Bat Demon King were in Pacific Island trying to rescue Liying Wang, and hadn’t yet returned. Qingfeng had already called to inform Fiery Demon King to head towards the forbidden Kunlun district as soon as she gets back from Pacific Island.

Lion Demon King and Green Dragon Demon King had wanted to come, but Qingfeng told them to stay in Eastern Sea city to protect Xue Lin and Ruyan Liu. Both of these women didn’t know any martial arts, and needed protection.

Qingfeng and the Wolf Fang Team cooperated wonderfully, and they were all he needed.

The Kunlun Mountains was named as the home of many gods. In ancient times, that was the place where celestial beings resided. In the modern day, these celestial being had disappeared, but their legend still lives on.

Qingfeng and the rest travelled quickly, and in only half a day’s time, they’ve already arrived at Kunlun Mountain. The mountain was massive, with a few hundred mountains interconnected, everyone was over ten thousand metres tall. These tall rocks were steep, and their presence was glorious.

There were plenty of people who’ve gathered at the bottom of the mountain. On the east side stood the Heavenly Sword sect, and their sect master, Tianjian Zhao, stood on the most advantageous spot of the east.

Tianjian Zhao was a forty-some year old man, and since he was at the Earthly Realm peak as well as being the top swordsmanship of a Earth Tier sect, he had a powerful presence.

Behind him were several elders and disciples. They were all powerful figures in the Heavenly Sword sect, and each carried a long sword behind them, emitting fierce sword energy.

On the west stood the Black Blade Sect. The sect master Wuya Hei was a middle-aged man with a massively heavy blade that appeared as light as a feather on his back. The blade distributed powerful rays that soared through the sky.

Behind Wuya were the elders and disciples of the Black Blade Sect. Every black blade was heavy, wide and breathed out fierce energy.

The Coiling Stone Sect was stationed in the south. Their sect master was Shan Pan, a middle-aged bloke with dark tanned skin. On his back was a massive stone mill with a powerful aura.

Behind Shan Pan were the elders of Stone Sect. Each carried a giant rock on their backs, like a massive mill, but it was in fact a spiritual device with insurmountable attack power.

In the north were those from the Demonic Blood Sect. If the previous three forces were considered orthodox forces, then this one was definitely evil.

The Demonic Blood Sect was an earth-tier sect, and their sect master, Jinlun Xue, was an advanced level earth realm practitioner. He was a middle-aged man with a blood-red face, and held a Demonic Blood Flag in his hands that radiated out bloodthirsty energy.

The Demonic Blood Sect Disciples all had a red blood flag in their hands, that were also emitting a powerful bloodthirsty energy.

Qingfeng looked at these people with shock, they were way too powerful.

Chapter 1003: Opening of the Forbidden District

 

“These four sects are indeed powerful.” Qingfeng thought to himself as he felt the strong aura from them.

The four Earth-Tier Sects had taken their spots in front Kunlun Mountain, and in the middle was the Wicked Sky Sect.

The Wicked Sky Sect was an unorthodox Sect, and an Earth-Tier Sect with massive power.

The Wicked Sky’s sect master, Ming Xie, was in the late-stage Earth Realm, and was extremely powerful. He had green eyes and radiated a sinister evil energy that felt terrifying.

Along with these five major Earth tier sects, the spiritual sects that included the Fiery Emperor Palace, Hundred-Flower Palace, and Sword Pavilion were all in the back.

Amongst them, Aotian Qin, the Hundred Flower Palace Sect Master, and the Sword Pavillion Sect Master were both Earthly Spirit realm powers.

Qingfeng saw many familiar faces amongst these people. There were Flower Fairy, Xianzhi Qin, and many others, but none of them were weak.

At the entrance of forbidden Kunlun district, there was a mysterious light barrier that protected it. They had to destroy that light barrier to get in.

Tianjian Zhao, Wuya Hei, Shan Pan and Jinlun Xue all took out their spiritual devices and charged at the light barrier. Under the strong impact, the light barrier broke into a large crack.

The cracks in the defensive light barrier grew with the increase in the force of attack. When suddenly, it disappeared with a loud bang.

“The forbidden Kunlun district has been unsealed! Come everyone!” The people around were more than thrilled as they rushed into the Kunlun Mountains.

Of course, the fastest were those from the Heavenly Sword Sect, Black Blade Sect, Stone Sect, and the Demonic Blood Sect. Behind them followed those from the other sects.

Qingfeng and the Wolf Fang Team fell behind as well, but managed to rush inside.

Swoosh!

With one flash of light, Qingfeng found himself amongst a mountain range.

There was a secret dimension inside the interior of the Kunlun Mountains. As Qingfeng looked around, only he and the Daoist were there, the rest of the Wolf Fang Team and other people were transported elsewhere by the light.

“Boss, where are we heading?” Daoist asked.

Qingfeng released his spirit energy and felt the surroundings. He pointed at the north and said, “Let us go that way.”

The Kunlun Mountains were filled with secrecy. There were tall mountains surrounded by ranges, trees, rivers, lakes, swamps, and grassy plains.

There were also demonic beasts that flew in the sky, and ran across the ground. It didn’t take long for Qingfeng to bump into one.

This was a powerful beast at the peak of the True Spirit realm. It was like a dark shadow ten metres tall, with glossy, highly-reflective feathers covering it like blades.

“Human, how dare you intrude onto my turf, I’m the Black Eagle King, and I’ll eat you,” the Black Eagle King said to Qingfeng with opened beaks.

Rumble!

Qingfeng’s stomach cried in hunger, as he hadn’t eaten food in a day. This eagle before him looked like a delicious meal, and his eyes began emitting rays of green light.

“Daoist, are you hungry?” Qingfeng asked the Daoist.

Daoist’s stomach also rumbled, he said, “Boss, of course I am.”

Qingfeng pointed at the Black Eagle King in front of them, and laughed, “Let’s barbeque it.”

Those that passed by were shocked when they heard this. These people were atrocious! The Black Eagle King was a very powerful beast, how can it be barbequed?

“You evil human, how dare you think of eating me? I’ll eat you first.” The Black Eagle King’s eyes turned red as he said angrily to Qingfeng.

Boom!

The Black Eagle King gave off great energy, waving its massive wings, and fiercely charging at Qingfeng while flinging razor sharp feathers at him.

Clang!

Qingfeng’s pulled out the Red Fiery Sword, and with one slash, the sword energy decapitated Black Eagle King’s head.

As the Black Eagle King’s head fell, its massive corpse crashed loudly to the ground, scaring off all those beasts that were waiting around in horror.

“Daoist, make the fire, let’s cook,” Qingfeng said nonchalantly.

The Wolf Fang team used to go on missions in the Wolf Continent in the past. They frequently met beasts, like tigers and cheetahs, and they were all hunted for food.

The Daoist was clearly experienced in dealing with demonic beasts, as it didn’t take long for him to clean the meat.

During this process, he found a demonic core inside the Black Eagle King’s belly. That was the essence that stored all of the Black Eagle King’s power. It was immediately sucked in by the Daoist, and his power elevated into the early stage of the True Spirit realm.

The Daoist built the fire, plucked the feathers off the Eagle King, and then put the meat onto the racks. Underneath, the firewood began to burn, crackling and heating the meat to allow a delicious aroma to diffuse.

The leg of Black Eagle King was golden yellow, crispy and juicy. Qingfeng took off two of its legs, gave one to Daoist, and they ate joyously.

The leg meat of the Black Eagle King contained vital essence, and was high in calories. With just one bite, Qingfeng felt all the pores in his body had opened, and his internal vital essence had increased.

Who knew that the meat of these demonic beasts could increase vital essence? Qingfeng and Daoist were joyous, and it didn’t take long for them to finish all of the Black Eagle King’s meat. They patted their bellies, and were satisfied.

Not only did Qingfeng’s vital essence increase, but so did the Daoist’s.

Qingfeng and the Daoist continued towards the mountain ranges when they were full.

Soon they reached a lake, in front of it stood four disciples of the Heavenly Sword sect, and four disciples of the Fiery Emperor Palace. Kaixuan Zhao led the Heavenly Sword sect, and Xianzhi Qin led those from the Fiery Emperor Palace.

Kaixuan and Xianzhi looked at each other coldly, with great vigilance in their eyes. Before them was a kilogram of white spiritual herbs. It was a second-grade spiritual herb, a seven-star ice herb, that could increase vital essence.

Whether if it was Kaixuan of the Heavenly Sword Sect or Xianzhi of the Fiery Emperor Palace, they both wanted the clump of seven star ice herb. At the same time, Qingfeng approached.

Kaixuan frowned and yelled, “Get lost!” as soon as he saw Qingfeng approach.

Kaixuan thought Qingfeng was there to also compete for the seven star ice herb, so he told him to keep out of this.

Qingfeng was upset, he had just arrived and was already cursed at to get lost.

“Did you not brush your teeth this morning, it stinks.” Qingfeng coldly said as he looked at Kaixuan.

Hahaha!

Xianzhi laughed, her attractive face softening due to Qingfeng. This guy still had a nasty mouth.
