Chapter 1449: Chapter 1149: Bringing Humiliation Upon Oneself

Li Fei was not worthy to fight him.

But now, with a single punch from Li Fei, he, Liu Chan, was suppressed so hard he could barely move, not even knowing how many ribs were broken; blood sprayed from his mouth in great gulps, utterly wretched and lowly. One could say that if Li Fei wanted his life, it would be but a flick of the fingers.

What right did he, Liu Chan, have to say Li Fei was not worthy to fight him?

Pathetic, isn’t it?

Utterly pathetic.

And yet, he did not inspire pity; this was his own doing, courting humiliation of his own accord.

Recall earlier, how arrogant this Liu Chan had been—one word from him and Xiao Tianyu had to stop, and he even felt that with his Second Layer of Divine Separation challenging Xiao Tianyu’s First Layer of Divine Separation, it was some kind of glorious deed.

But now, he was suppressed with a single casual move by a mere disciple of the Xiao Sect, forced prone on the ground, unable to rise.

So, what qualification did he have to challenge Xiao Tianyu?

One punch?

Those around fixed their gaze on the utterly wretched Liu Chan, feeling speechless inside; Liu Chan, at Second Layer of Divine Separation, was suppressed with one punch, Li Fei’s Fist Aura pressing down on his body so hard he didn’t even have the qualification to twitch.

Humiliation.

This was unquestionably humiliation.

Some even thought to themselves: rumor had it that under Xiao Tianyu sat five great disciples—Lihen Heaven, Li Fei, Bai Bufan, Mo Qingluan, Jian Wushuang—each of them possessed peerless talent, able to treat all peers within the Nine Peaks of the Luoshen Sect as nothing. Seeing them today, it seemed the tales were not false.

Just that single punch from Li Fei had already proven it all.

"Let go!" Liu Chan let out a low, furious roar; his body could be described as a bloody ruin, blood soaking through his clothes, and that punch suppressing him made it utterly impossible for him to lift his head.

"Didn’t you just say I didn’t even have the qualification to fight you? In that case, why should I let go?" Li Fei’s eyes fixed on Liu Chan in the pit, a playful smile curling his lips.

Since he said Li Fei had no qualification to fight him, then why not shatter Li Fei’s Fist Aura?

"You..." Liu Chan struggled, and when he especially sensed all those gazes falling on him, his heart twisted as though being cut by knives.

Today, just because Yang Qian’Er at his side had looked at Xiao Tianyu twice more than usual, he decided Yang Qian’Er might be having a fling with Xiao Tianyu, and thus vented his anger on Xiao Tianyu, finally seizing an opportunity to "teach Xiao Tianyu a lesson."

Yet now, he was suppressed by Li Fei under Xiao Tianyu’s seat.

Did he truly think the Xiao Sect had no one?

"When you conduct yourself, it’s better to leave a margin!" At this moment, Shen Ting, who had not spoken all along, finally spoke calmly. There was no ripple in his gaze, drawing quite a few gazes onto him.

Although his voice was indifferent, it gave one the feeling of some invisible pressure contained within.

In this generation of the Southeast Celestial Sect, although two great prodigies, Yue Qianhan and Shen Ting, had emerged, it was widely known that Shen Ting’s talent was completely above Yue Qianhan’s; he was the most outstanding figure of this generation of the Southeast Celestial Sect.

His senior brother Gu Qianchou was a figure on the same level as Wang Tian, already listed among the seven peerless figures of the era that suppresses generations.

It was said that Shen Ting’s Martial Arts talent was in no way inferior to Gu Qianchou’s, merely born a few years later, so his Cultivation was a few layers weaker.

Upon hearing this, Li Fei’s gaze fell on Shen Ting as he spoke: "Just now, when people of your Southeast Celestial Sect were slandering my Xiao Sect’s Sect Leader, why didn’t I hear you say it’s better to leave a margin when conducting oneself?"

Li Fei’s voice was very loud.

It seemed what he said was not without reason. When Yue Qianhan first arrived, he had brazenly slandered Xiao Tianyu, claiming that even if Xiao Tianyu founded the Xiao Sect, it was only because his ten senior brothers were supporting him from behind.

He had even taken the chance to humiliate Xiao Tianyu while humiliating Wang You. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ

Where was Shen Ting then? He seemed to have been here too, yet why had he never voiced such words?

Eh?

Everyone around fell silent, each of them looking strangely at Li Fei—this fellow actually dared go head-to-head with Shen Ting?

Li Yuan sat upright there, still wearing his usual faint smile, as though he were not the host at all.

Hm?

Shen Ting’s brows furrowed slightly; he finally lifted his gaze to sweep Li Fei once, then raised his cup and took a sip before speaking coldly: "Just because you think you have some talent, you dare ’discipline’ people of my Southeast Celestial Sect. Have you ever considered what it feels like to be trampled under someone’s foot?"

"Moreover, today Prince Li has set this banquet to entertain everyone. I, Shen Ting, naturally must give him face; I had no intention of quibbling with you. Since you’ve already gained a benefit, it would be best for you to end it here!"

As his voice fell, Shen Ting picked up the wine jug before him and poured himself another cup.

As though, to him, the meaning of that previous statement was that only out of consideration for Li Yuan’s face was he not pursuing Li Fei’s actions.

However, it seemed the ones who had stirred up trouble first were still people of his Southeast Celestial Sect; yet his tone sounded as though he were pointing out fault in the Xiao Sect.

Still, no one dared question Shen Ting’s words; in this world where Martial Arts stand supreme, reason itself is hammered out with fists.

Thus, Shen Ting had the capability to speak thus.

"Gained a benefit?" Xiao Tianyu’s gaze fell upon Shen Ting as he spoke: "You think this is a benefit? If I remember correctly, I never had any intention of challenging your Southeast Celestial Sect before. It was your sect that produced a piece of trash who ordered me to stand. You call that a benefit?"

"Also, regarding what you just said, should I take it that you’re threatening my Xiao Sect?" Xiao Tianyu’s voice continued, though his gaze was calm. "Now that the trash has been crushed, if you want to stand up for him, you can say so directly. Why bother beating around the bush?"

Thinking himself aloft, looking down on all, putting no one in his eyes—in Xiao Tianyu’s view, this was laughable to the extreme.

What qualification did Shen Ting have to warn the Xiao Sect’s group?

"Presumptuous!" Yue Qianhan suddenly coldly snorted, his gaze sharpening in an instant, and even within those deep eyes a trace of icy killing intent flashed forth.

This scene made everyone around feel things were getting entertaining.

Looked like Yue Qianhan was going to step in and discipline the Xiao Sect’s group?

"Next era’s suppressor of generations?" Xiao Tianyu shifted his gaze, looking at Shen Ting as he spoke: "Just now you said Wang You, having been defeated by me, was not worthy to be mentioned in the same breath as you, did you not? In that case, I, Xiao, despite my lack of self-awareness, would very much like to see your abilities!"

Whoosh~

With these words, many gazes fell upon Xiao Tianyu.

Yue Qianhan had long been famous.

Xiao Tianyu had burst onto the scene from nowhere, rising to prominence only recently as a figure of romantic legend. Were these two great prodigies going to collide now?

Moreover, earlier Wang You said that in the battle at the Outer Peaks he had been defeated by Xiao Tianyu. Thus Yue Qianhan declared Wang You unworthy to be mentioned in the same breath as him.

Those words, while trampling Wang You, were also trampling Xiao Tianyu’s dignity, were they not?

Hence Xiao Tianyu invited Yue Qianhan to battle.

The crowd thought: in this battle, if Xiao Tianyu lost, then Yue Qianhan’s previous statement would be proven true—Wang You indeed lacked the qualification to be mentioned alongside him.

If Yue Qianhan lost.

Then he would likely have nowhere to hide his face.

"If you’re looking for humiliation, I don’t mind fulfilling your wish!" Yue Qianhan’s pair of deep eyes slowly lifted, falling upon Xiao Tianyu.

Then, under the gaze of everyone, Yue Qianhan left his seat and strolled toward the center of the Storm Pavilion.
