Chapter 1428: Monster, What Are You Trying to Do?

“Hmm?”

Bai Ye’s brows furrowed deeply, a faint surprise flickering in his eyes. His earlier strike was something even a Martial Artist at the seventh level of the True Yuan Realm would struggle to withstand. He never anticipated that Luo Feng would disperse it with a single punch.

“No wonder you managed to injure the Eleventh Prince. However, do you really think you can block me with your meager strength?”

Muttering to himself, Bai Ye curled his fingers, and instantly, a fierce wind tore through the courtyard. His immense True Yuan formed a funnel-shaped Qi Force that spun wildly, its suction increasing severalfold. The ground around Luo Feng immediately cracked under the force, and his body was somewhat out of control.

“Luo Feng.”

“Master!”

Yue Haitang and Xuelian’s faces changed, and they attacked simultaneously.

Swish swish swish swish…

Yue Haitang pushed the Sword Intent to its limit. As the nearby space faintly trembled, countless phantom sword shadows appeared, fiercely entangling in the void, attempting to sever the terrifying suction.

Xuelian was even more direct. With a step, she came beside Luo Feng, her delicate palm pressing on the ground. She raised her head to look at Bai Ye, a flash of blood-red shimmer in her eyes.

Roar!

The earth trembled as the ground surrounding Luo Feng turned a glaring blood-red. The soil churned like ocean waves, transforming into blood-red beasts in an instant. The beasts roared to the sky, their intense sound waves withstanding the monstrous suction enveloping Luo Feng, before striding towards Bai Ye.

Seeing this scene, everyone else was stunned. The aura emanating from the blood-red beasts was extremely sinister, like ghosts struggling out of purgatory.

“Blood Refining Skill! Blood Demon lineage!”

Bai Ye glanced at the stomping beasts, his expression changing to one of coldness. Looking at Luo Feng, he said, “So you’ve colluded with the likes of Blood Fiend. Seems the Eleventh Prince was right about you. In that case, I won’t need to show any courtesy.”

With a cold snort, a colossal aura erupted from Bai Ye, causing the surrounding ground to sag under pressure.

Bang bang bang bang bang…

With just a palm, the terrifying Qi Force crushed forward, exploding layers of earth in its wake. The countless sword shadows, along with the dozen or so beasts, were instantly pulverized into dust, reduced to rubble.

Xuelian groaned, her body swaying, supported by Luo Feng.

“Dare to still shield this demon!”

Bai Ye, enraged, advanced in a step, his entire body surging with True Yuan which transformed into a huge palm, reaching for Xuelian in Luo Feng’s embrace.

Crack!

Lightning flashed, and a streak of Thunder light Saber Energy shot out, severing the giant True Yuan hand.

Next.

With a hissing sound, a keen and imposing crystal Sword Qi appeared behind Bai Ye, carrying a sharp whistling sound as it slashed down.

Bai Ye’s face turned pale, his entire True Yuan erupting as he raised his palm to block. With a bang, his palm force and the Sword Qi shattered simultaneously, forcing him back several steps.

Finally, they arrived.

Luo Feng exhaled in relief and glanced at Xuelian, “Are you alright?”

“Master, I’m fine.”

Xuelian shook her head, her beautiful eyes staring coldly at Bai Ye, “This old guy is powerful. Someday, when I become a Blood Demon, I’ll drain him dry.”

“Desireless Yin Thunder Blade! Immeasurable Instant-Kill Sword!”

Bai Ye’s figure halted, his gaze shifting towards the mansion interior, his expression grave, “I did not expect to encounter disciples of the Free and Unfettered Sect and the Sword Tomb Sect here. Since you’ve arrived, why not show yourselves.”

Footsteps sounded, and three figures appeared in the open ground — it was Chixiao, Jiang Fengfeng, and Su Zhuyun.

Jiang Fengfeng glanced at Luo Feng, her red lips curling into a playful smile, “Luo Feng, you really know how to get into trouble. We’ve been waiting for half a month for you, and now you return with such a big mess.”

Luo Feng gave a wry smile, saying nothing.

Chixiao’s gaze roved around, finally landing on Bai Ye, with a smile appearing on his face, “City Lord Bai, long time no see.”

Bai Ye scrutinized Chixiao, and after a moment, his gaze sharpened, “You are… Chixiao!”

A few years back, when he was visiting Melt Fire City in the Imperial City of the Dali Dynasty, he had seen Chixiao, who had already passed the Free and Unfettered Sect recruitment then, leaving a deep impression.

“Heh, didn’t expect City Lord Bai to remember me.”

Chixiao walked to Luo Feng’s side, glanced at the Eleventh Prince and others, and said to Bai Ye, “Today we have several friends visiting here. Since City Lord Bai came by, why not give a heads-up so we could prepare and properly accommodate everyone?”

The Eleventh Prince sensed an unusual atmosphere and asked, “City Lord Bai, who is he?”

Bai Ye’s face was dour, avoiding the Eleventh Prince’s question, and addressed Chixiao, “Chixiao, I apologize for today’s rudeness, consider it a favor from me. Farewell.”

Saying this, Bai Ye turned and ordered the surrounding white-armored Martial Artists, “We’re leaving!”

This Filariasis Residence, ever since Chixiao bought it, he had only resided twice. So the people only knew this residence was not simple, with a later-stage Spiritual Rotation Realm warrior as a guard, but none were aware the owner was a Prince from the Dali Dynasty.

Even Bai Ye, the City Lord of Cloud Brocade City, was unaware of this fact, or else, even if the Eleventh Prince begged on his knees, he would not have interfered in this matter.

The Eleventh Prince was momentarily confused when he saw Bai Ye suddenly leaving, but upon seeing Luo Feng, his expression turned grim, quickly catching up to Bai Ye. “City Lord Bai, you promised me…”

Bai Ye halted, casting a dark glance at the Eleventh Prince, making him swallow his words.

“Eleventh Prince, don’t you want to know his identity?”

Bai Ye glanced at Chixiao, coldly saying, “He is the current Crown Prince of the Dali Dynasty, Chixiao,

Bai Ye was in a foul mood. Agreeing to help the Eleventh Prince capture Luo Feng today was a massive mistake.

To know, just from his identity as a Free and Unfettered Sect disciple, Chixiao was immensely more prestigious than the Eleventh Prince. Judging by their brief encounter, Bai Ye knew he was no match for Chixiao, not to mention there was a strong Sword Tomb Sect disciple present. Staying would be self-humiliation, which explains his hasty departure.

Leaving these words behind, Bai Ye ignored the stunned Eleventh Prince and quickly left the residence.

The Eleventh Prince regained his senses, casting a fearful glance at Chixiao and others, flimsily smiling,

“Hehe, well, I… I’ll take my leave too.”

Even though he was a prince, the Out Cloud Country had many princes, and his cultivation talents were just mediocre, leaving him with an undistinguished status among them, nowhere near the rank of the Dali Dynasty’s Crown Prince Chixiao, and besides, he’s part of the Holy Land sect…

While he spoke, the Eleventh Prince turned to leave, when suddenly Chixiao’s voice called out.

“Eleventh Prince, are you just leaving like that?”

The Eleventh Prince’s body trembled slightly, stopping as he turned back, forcing a strained smile, “Chixiao, I have some matters, will visit another day.”

Whoosh!

The moment the Eleventh Prince finished speaking, the sound of tearing air was heard, and the surrounding Fire Armour Guards flashed, blocking his exit, eyes fierce.

Thud thud thud…

The Eleventh Prince stepped back in fright, looking at the approaching Chixiao, swallowing hard.

“Chixiao, you… what do you intend to do?”
