Douluo's Soul Power increases by two levels every year

Chapter 659 Ingratitude?

That year, Han Feng was still a simpleton, clueless about love; that year, Ning Rongrong was rejected by Han Feng in every way, yet she couldn't resist and couldn't control herself; that year, Gu Rong couldn't bear to see her own cabbage being so proactive, so she planned to step in and teach Han Feng a lesson, making him realize how good Ning Rongrong was.

That year, Han Feng, unaware of the situation, was inexplicably ambushed by a Title Douluo; that year, Han Feng swallowed blood, his mouth turning crimson; that year, Ning Rongrong suddenly appeared and stopped Han Feng and Gu Rong.

That year, Gu Rong owed Han Feng a blow!

The ancient banyan tree has owed this blow for over a hundred years.

At first, Gu Rong was quite relaxed. After all, when Gu Rong delivered this blow, Han Feng was just a Soul Venerable who wasn't even a Soul Master. For Gu Rong, a well-established Title Douluo, it was a piece of cake. He could stand there and let Han Feng bombard him without getting hurt in the slightest. But after Han Feng advanced to Soul Emperor and witnessed the power of Han Feng's sixth Soul Skill, Gu Rong became nervous. He even disregarded his pride and urged Han Feng to finish the attack as soon as possible.

Gu Rong was alarmed by the speed at which Han Feng's strength had improved. In just a few years, Han Feng had already gained the strength to threaten him. What would happen if he continued to improve in a few more years?

But at that time, Han Feng casually rejected him.

Gu Rong knew that Han Feng was up to no good, but besides feeling indignant, he was also helpless—he was too embarrassed to break his promise!

But after Han Feng returned from his training in the far north, Gu Rong had already given up on the matter!

Thinking about it is useless. At that time, Han Feng was already at level ninety, with a full set of 100,000-year soul rings, more than Gu Rong had ever seen in his entire life. At that time, Han Feng already possessed strength no weaker than Qian Daoliu. What's the point of thinking about it?

To avoid humiliating himself, Gu Rong subconsciously avoided the matter.

At that time, Gu Rong thought that at worst, he could just grit his teeth and bear it when Han Feng remembered him. It was just a matter of gritting his teeth. Han Feng wouldn't cripple him, would he?

But at that time, Han Feng seemed to have forgotten about it and did not mention it.

Even after Han Feng became a god, he still didn't mention it.

Now, a century has passed, and even Gu Rong himself has forgotten about it. How could he possibly remember that he owed Han Feng a blow? Who knew that Han Feng would suddenly bring it up just as he was about to ascend to immortality!?

Is this appropriate?

Han Feng has been a god for a hundred years. Although his cultivation is not at its peak, it is still highly refined. He has slain Rakshasa above and suppressed the Pope below. Even in the vast God Realm, Han Feng's strength is among the top. So why does Han Feng suddenly want to settle old scores with a mortal Douluo from a hundred years ago?!

This is going to be the death of me!

What kind of ghost is this?!

The gap between Gu Rong and Han Feng back then wasn't as big as the gap between Han Feng and Gu Rong now!

So when Han Feng said those words, not only Gu Rong, but also Flander and the others beside Han Feng were shocked, staring at Han Feng with disbelief on their faces.

Zhao Wuji exclaimed repeatedly, "Han Feng! You are already a god, why bother arguing with Bone Douluo about these things!?"

Liu Erlong and the others chimed in.

There is no doubt that Gu Rong has been kind to Han Feng. Gu Rong has helped Han Feng on several occasions, which is evident to everyone. Now, not only does Han Feng not take Gu Rong with him to ascend to immortality, but before leaving, he also wants to settle old scores with Gu Rong. This is simply repaying kindness with enmity!

Even if a reckoning is to be settled, it's Han Feng who owes Gu Rong!

Han Dang's eyes widened in anger as he stared intently at Han Feng. Though he remained silent, anyone could sense the fury emanating from him!

Han Dang had almost never been angry with Han Feng. Han Feng was mature beyond his years, which made Han Dang feel at ease. This was something Han Dang had always been proud of. But today, Han Dang had no choice but to be angry.

The father is to blame for not teaching his son properly. Han Feng's ingratitude is a failure of his duty as a father!

But Han Feng seemed not to hear him, and even used his divine power to imprison Liu Erlong and the others.

Liu Erlong and the others stared at Han Feng in disbelief, their eyes filled with unfamiliarity!

If Han Feng is truly such an ungrateful person, then it's better not to go to the God Realm!

Han Feng seemed oblivious to all of this, merely glancing indifferently at Gu Rong and saying calmly, "Cause and effect are cyclical, retribution is inevitable! Yesterday's cause, today's effect! I doubt you, Gu Rong, would want to form a karmic bond with a deity, would you?"

Hearing Han Feng's words, Gu Rong was filled with mixed feelings. His eyes seemed to show disappointment and anger, but in the end, he accepted everything calmly and regained his carefree and playful smile. With the Bone Dragon Martial Soul attached to him, although he knew he was not weak, his nine soul rings still shone brightly!

"Do you think I'm the kind of person who doesn't repay debts?!" Gu Rong laughed heartily, looking at Han Feng, and said, "Today, I will repay you everything I owe you!"

Having said that, Gu Rong unleashed his full power, his ferocious bone dragon form rising from the ground, his gaze fixed intently on Han Feng!

Back then, Han Feng, with his Soul Venerable cultivation, endured a punch without spitting out blood, displaying his unyielding pride. What Han Feng could do, Gu Rong could do too!

At this moment, Han Feng noticed the hint of relief deep in Gu Rong's eyes, and frowned almost imperceptibly. He couldn't help but remind her, "Back then, you didn't use your cultivation to suppress me, and today I disdain to retaliate with divine power. We've both exerted our utmost to settle our karmic debts!"

Gu Rong was taken aback, and after a long pause, he shouted in a hoarse voice, "Fine!"

"That was great!" Han Feng grinned and, without further hesitation, threw a punch!

There is no peerless divine spear, no uncrowned divine armor, and no supreme holy flame domain!

Han Feng kept his word. He didn't even use his divine power, just a simple punch without any fancy moves. But this punch came from a god who had become a god in the flesh. It was powerful and heavy, capable of shattering the sky and splitting the sun!

Throughout the entire Douluo Continent, apart from the ten god-level powerhouses beside Han Feng and the Silver Dragon King beneath the Lake of Life, no one else could withstand this punch!

Han Feng's punch was absolutely enough to kill Gu Rong!

Chen Xin, who was closest to the ancient banyan tree, almost had tears of blood welling up in his eyes. The Seven Kill Sword hummed incessantly, but no matter what he did, he could not break free from Han Feng's restraint!

Chen Xin was puzzled. Why did Han Feng do this? Why didn't Ning Rongrong and the others stop him?

Is Han Feng really going to kill Gu Rong because of the grudges from back then?!

Chen Xin found it unbelievable!

On the other hand, Gu Rong was completely oblivious to everything else; all he could see was the punch right in front of him!

At this moment, Gu Rong felt his whole body tense up. His combat instincts, accumulated over the years, were constantly reminding him to dodge, or he would surely die!

But the question is, where can the ancient banyan tree hide?

Han Feng had already locked onto his aura. In the face of a god, Gu Rong was so weak and powerless!

Strangely, at this moment, Gu Rong showed neither anger nor fear; only a deep sense of grievance filled her heart.

People over a hundred years old might feel wronged, and it might seem ridiculous to others, but Gu Rong is indeed feeling wronged right now!

Could it be that Han Feng is really such a petty and calculating person?

Gu Rong had never doubted Han Feng before, but now he was wavering. He felt betrayed. He had been completely open and honest with Han Feng, but now Han Feng wanted to kill him. It was truly heartbreaking!

Gu Rong's感慨 (feelings/reflections) didn't last long; in the blink of an eye, they were swallowed up by the fist energy unleashed by Han Feng!

Immediately afterwards, half of Tianjian Mountain was crushed into dust!

At the same time, atop Tianjian Mountain, all the gods, including Han Feng, and Tang Hao, the Lord of the Unforgiven, narrowed their eyes, their divine power surging as they stared intently at the ancient banyan tree within the fist's aura. Ye Lingling summoned the Nine-Hearted Begonia, which had already advanced to the Divine Soul realm. Its rich healing aura made everyone feel as if they were bathed in a spring breeze, but at this moment, no one had the leisure to pay attention to it!

Han Feng clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles dug into his flesh without him even realizing it!
