Upon hearing this, Elder Xing took a deep breath, a hint of madness flashing in his eyes.

rule?

When there are enough benefits, rules are worthless!

"Please forgive me, senior, but I am determined to do what I'm told today!"

He suddenly raised his hand, his withered palm turning into a blur as he grabbed at Chu Feng's brow.

That terrifying Nascent Soul spiritual power poured down like a tidal wave, determined to forcibly tear open Chu Feng's sea of ​​consciousness.

"Chu Feng!"

Yuexi was shocked and was about to intervene.

Although Elder Xing's cultivation level was not as high as hers, his ability to adapt to changing circumstances was first-rate.

He deliberately chose an angle of attack that Yuexi couldn't intercept, aiming to catch her off guard.

Chu Feng felt a chilling power invade his soul.

My mind was in turmoil, and I was in excruciating pain.

He gritted his teeth and desperately channeled his spiritual energy to resist.

However, the gap between the Nascent Soul stage and the Foundation Establishment stage is too vast to be stopped.

It’s over.

Chu Feng's heart sank.

Am I really going to die here today?

Just as Elder Xing's withered hand was about to completely invade Chu Feng's sea of ​​consciousness.

Suddenly, a crack appeared silently in the void above Chu Feng's head.

A fair, jade-like hand slowly emerged from the crack.

That hand was slender and long, each finger seemingly carved from mutton-fat jade.

It was just a slight lift.

An invisible force materialized out of thin air, transforming into a finger that touched Elder Xing's withered palm.

"stop."

boom!

Elder Xing felt a devastating force pour into his body through the withered hand.

His once-proud mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivation was as fragile as an infant's!

He flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, more than a hundred feet away, and tumbled seven or eight times in mid-air before barely managing to regain his balance.

But his right hand was completely useless.

The withered palms were charred black, the flesh was mangled, and the bones were exposed.

"who!"

Elder Xing roared fiercely, his voice filled with terror.

The spatial rift slowly widened.

A figure stepped out and landed in front of Chu Feng.

He wore a dark palace dress with a subtle gold phoenix pattern, and his phoenix eyes were sharp as swords.

That face, capable of eclipsing the heavens and earth, was expressionless, yet possessed an inherent majesty that made people dare not look directly at it.

The patriarch of the Liuyun Sect, Feng Jiuyou.

"Ancestor... Ancestor!"

I don't know who shouted it first.

Immediately afterwards, a thud sounded as everyone knelt down.

Whether it was the disciples watching or the elite enforcers of the Golden Core stage in mid-air, they all knelt down in unison, not daring to raise their heads.

Elder Xing's face turned deathly pale instantly.

He wasn't afraid of Yuexi because although Yuexi was at the Nascent Soul stage, she was gentle and reasonable.

But Feng Jiuyou is different.

This patriarch was known for his ruthlessness and mercilessness, killing without blinking an eye.

If you fall into her hands, you won't even have a chance to be reincarnated ten times.

"Grand...Grand Ancestor, please forgive me!"

Despite the excruciating pain in his arm, Elder Xing knelt down with a thud, his forehead hitting the ground heavily.

"This junior, Elder Xing of the Enforcement Hall, was unaware that our Ancestor had emerged from seclusion, and has disturbed his peaceful cultivation. I deserve to die!"

Feng Jiuyou looked down at him from her high position, her phoenix eyes showing no pity whatsoever.

"Elder Xing, you've overstepped your bounds."

"Chu Feng is an inner disciple of my Flowing Cloud Sect. Did you obtain my permission to harm him?"

Elder Xing trembled and hurriedly began to defend himself.

"Ancestor, you are wise! Your junior disciple, Liu Rushuang, has been murdered, and her soul lamp has been extinguished. Investigation has confirmed that Chu Feng was responsible!"

"This junior merely wished to search the soul for evidence; there was no intention to offend!"

"Collecting evidence?"

Feng Jiuyou sneered, "Where's your evidence? Witnesses? Physical evidence?"

"Or are you just basing this on someone else's side of the story?"

She shifted her gaze slightly, sweeping it towards Liu Ruoxue, who was hiding in the distance.

However, he was too lazy to pay attention to her and quickly looked at Elder Xing again.

"I will only say this once."

"Either produce concrete evidence, or take your men back to the Enforcement Hall."

"If you dare to lay a finger on Chu Feng again, I will personally go to your Enforcement Hall to demand an explanation."

This is no longer a warning; it's a blatant threat!

Given Feng Jiuyou's cultivation level and status, if she says she's going to the Enforcement Hall to demand an explanation, then the Enforcement Hall wouldn't need to exist anymore.

Elder Xing's face turned pale and then white, then pale and then pale again.

He knew that he was completely finished today.

Let alone someone like him who is only at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, even if the head of the Enforcement Hall himself came, he would only have the right to kneel before Feng Jiuyou.

"This junior...yes."

He gritted his teeth as he spoke, giving Chu Feng a hateful look.

Then, leading the group of Enforcement Hall disciples and Liu Ruoxue, they left in a sorry state.

The crisis is over.

Chu Feng finally breathed a long sigh of relief after Elder Xing and the others disappeared from sight.

He straightened his clothes, stepped forward, and bowed to Feng Jiuyou.

"Thank you for saving me, Ancestor."

"If it weren't for the timely arrival of the Ancestor, I'm afraid I would have perished here today."

Feng Jiuyou turned around, her phoenix eyes landing on Chu Feng's face.

"You're quite composed."

"Knowing they couldn't win, they still dared to go head-to-head with Elder Xing."

Chu Feng smiled and said in a low voice, "The ancestor hasn't come, how dare I admit defeat?"

"Besides, Ancestor, you're so powerful, you definitely won't just watch me die!"

Feng Jiuyou raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Are you so sure I'll come?"

"I'm not sure," Chu Feng shrugged. "But taking a gamble is better than waiting to die."

"If you don't come, the worst that can happen is that you die. At least you've gained a day."

Feng Jiuyou remained silent for a moment.

That bastard is certainly honest.

"Don't cause trouble in the future." She snorted coldly and turned to leave.

"By the way, Ancestor."

Chu Feng suddenly called out to her again.

Feng Jiuyou paused and turned around.

"Anything else...?"

Before he could finish speaking, Chu Feng leaned closer and said with a smile, "I have no way to repay this life-saving grace."

"How about I repay you with my body in the future?"

The air was quiet for a moment.

An unnatural blush appeared on Feng Jiuyou's perpetually icy face.

The scenes from that night kept flashing through my mind uncontrollably.

She turned her head sharply, not wanting Chu Feng to see the expression on her face.

You'd better watch your mouth.

"If anyone were to find out what happened that day... those two days, I would make sure your soul is annihilated!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a flash of spiritual light appeared around her, and she transformed into a streak of light that shot into the sky, disappearing into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

Chu Feng stood there, watching the streak of light disappear into the distance, a smile playing on his lips.

"They say no, but their bodies tell a different story."

Yuexi stepped forward, her cool eyes filled with curiosity.

"What exactly is your relationship with Jiuyou?"

Chu Feng turned his head, looking completely innocent.

"It's alright, just a normal relationship between an elder and a younger generation."

Yuexi clearly didn't believe it, but she didn't press the matter further.

She only glanced deeply at Chu Feng, feeling the complex emotions in her heart growing stronger.

This man harbored far more secrets than she had imagined.
