Chapter 1542 - 1539: Kuang Chenggong’s Scheme

Chapter 1542: Chapter 1539: Kuang Chenggong’s Scheme

He was gambling too. If he couldn’t withstand this move, he might die instantly. If he managed to block it and still had a breath left, he could use the power of the Great Rejuvenation Pill to sustain himself and escape through the hostage.

"Boom....."

Just as Chen Tianlong was about to strike, Kuang Chenggong deliberately angled his body to fly backward, just in line with Wu Mengting and Pure Yang Feifei.

"Not good..."

Although Chen Tianlong was swift, he didn’t act recklessly. The moment his palm was directed at Kuang Chenggong, he noticed that Kuang’s body slightly shifted, as if intentionally aiming at a specific direction.

It must be noted that directly rushing over to confront Mengting or Feifei was impossible; they were both masters of Great Perfection, and while they couldn’t defeat Kuang Chenggong, they could certainly escape.

Therefore, Kuang Chenggong chose not to grab directly but to confront Chen Tianlong, creating confusion, making it seem like a battle while in fact aiming to seize a hostage.

Fortunately, it was Kuang Chenggong. If it had been anyone else, they wouldn’t have succeeded because after facing Chen Tianlong’s move, they would most likely be dead or severely injured.

But Kuang Chenggong was different. His body was naturally resilient, and he was a master similar to the Great Protector Wu Hui, except for Master Wuchen. Coupled with Kuang Chenggong’s ultimate skill, the Golden Bell Divine Skill, he avoided death, and with the aid of the Great Rejuvenation Pill.

Thus, after landing, Kuang used the rebound off the ground, leaping up directly behind Pure Yang Feifei and clawed Feifei’s throat with his hand.

"Chen Tianlong, if you dare move, I’ll break her neck. I know you’re very powerful now, but you’ve seen my speed. If you think you can risk it, go ahead."

Kuang Chenggong knew full well that Pure Yang Feifei was Chen Tianlong’s weakness, and no matter what, he wouldn’t dare to take risks regarding Feifei.

As expected, Chen Tianlong was shocked. He never expected this damned Kuang Chenggong would use this tactic. Evidently, Kuang Chenggong was severely injured, but with the Golden Bell Divine Skill and the pill sustaining him, he was relatively unharmed for now.

"Kuang Chenggong, don’t act rashly. Release Feifei, and I’ll let you go. If anything happens to Feifei, I’ll destroy your Great Sabina Country and ensure your body is dismembered."

Chen Tianlong rarely made such threats, but for Feifei’s sake, he had to intimidate Kuang Chenggong.

However, Kuang Chenggong was clearly not a coward fearing death. As a General, he possessed some grand demeanor. He coldly smiled and said, "If you let me go, I will return her to you unharmed, otherwise don’t blame me for being ruthless."

As he spoke, Kuang Chenggong tightened his grip on Pure Yang Feifei’s throat, leaving Feifei gasping for breath.

"Cough cough..... Chen Tianlong, don’t... don’t mind me, kill... kill this demon to avenge your master..." Pure Yang Feifei managed to say a sentence but was choked even more tightly.

"Kuang Chenggong..."

Chen Tianlong shouted, "Hear me, if you dare squeeze Feifei any harder, I will tear you to pieces."

Seeing Feifei’s painful expression, Chen Tianlong’s heart was pierced with agony. He would rather be the one strangled than Feifei.

Nonetheless, despite his fury, some rationality remained. Kuang Chenggong was very cunning. If he wasn’t allowed to leave immediately, he surely wouldn’t give up, and might take some drastic actions.

"Hahaha... Help me open the door, and as soon as I safely leave, she will be unharmed and returned to you." Kuang Chenggong spoke ambiguously, but Chen Tianlong had no choice.

Chen Tianlong gritted his teeth, never expecting Kuang Chenggong to use this tactic. But there was no alternative; no matter how powerful he was, if Feifei suffered any harm, he would be devastated.

Moreover, he fully believed Kuang Chenggong was capable of anything, potentially killing Feifei in a moment of urgency, leaving him in uncontrollable grief.

"Boom....."

Chen Tianlong waved his hand, and the stones blocking the doorway were instantly blown away. Kuang Chenggong was surprised, but he couldn’t delay any longer. He knew Chen Tianlong was highly intelligent; once he found a flaw, it would be over.

"It’s best not to approach me. Once I’m safely out, I’ll release Pure Yang Feifei; otherwise...." Kuang Chenggong continued threatening.

"Humph, I warn you too, if you dare harm Feifei, expect to die and be left unburied."

Chen Tianlong was equally threatening Kuang Chenggong. Clearly, Chen Tianlong’s threats carried weight, and Kuang Chenggong couldn’t afford to gamble—as the Sabina People’s Grand General, ruling over Huaxia, he couldn’t ruin himself for a girl.

So, indeed, he didn’t dare make any drastic moves. Kuang Chenggong led Pure Yang Feifei outside carefully.

Chen Tianlong followed them out, while those from Kunlun Sect outside were already terrified, retreating in a panic.

Before long, Kuang Chenggong reached the mountain gate outside the cave. He glanced at the surrounding cliffs, a slight smile on his lips, thinking: "Chen Tianlong, you think you’re so powerful now that I won’t dare touch your woman? Hmph..."

"Chen Tianlong, Pure Yang Feifei returned to you." Kuang Chenggong said, grinning wickedly.

At this moment, Chen Tianlong sensed something amiss, and sure enough, the next moment, Kuang Chenggong thrust his palm at Pure Yang Feifei’s shoulder, sending Feifei flying.

That wasn’t the key part; the key was Feifei was flying off towards the edge of the cliff.

Seeing this, Chen Tianlong didn’t hesitate, sprinting forward like an arrow and leaping, but just then, Kuang Chenggong unexpectedly executed the seventh level of Phantom Divine Skill, attempting to eliminate him in the instant Chen Tianlong rescued her.

"Boom....."

Chen Tianlong was holding Feifei in mid-air above the cliff, oblivious to Kuang Chenggong’s strike, taking a punch directly from Kuang. Even though Chen Tianlong was much stronger than Kuang Chenggong, facing his full-force attack while focused on rescuing was still tough.

At this moment, the two were rapidly descending, leaving Pure Yang Feifei and the Kunlun Sect members stunned, surprised at Kuang Chenggong’s sudden turn in events.

Pure Yang Feifei woke up amidst the wind whistling by her ears, delighting at being in the arms of her beloved Chen Tianlong, but quickly became terrified upon seeing her surroundings.

"Chen Tianlong, we’re falling rapidly, what do we do?" Pure Yang Feifei realized their peril, but with this speed, what could Chen Tianlong do while holding her?

Chen Tianlong didn’t speak, his mind racing rapidly. This speed could be managed with Sword Control Skill, but with two people, would the force from using Sword Control cause them to crash?

He had tried with one person at Heartless Cliff before, but the momentum of two falling was not simply doubled.

"Wait, haven’t I reached Extreme Dao now? Can I fly in the sky then?" Chen Tianlong suddenly remembered his strength, deciding to take this chance and try.
