âYoung master Xu, youâre still alive?â Chu Feng asked.
The reason why Chu Feng asked this question was because Xu Morong was the reason why the Tantai Heavenly Clanâs elder ended up being severely punished.
Thus, Chu Feng felt that that elder would definitely not spare Xu Morong. Chu Feng was actually mocking him.
However, Xu Morong evidently did not manage to comprehend the hidden implications of Chu Fengâs words. He looked at Chu Feng and spoke with a ridiculing tone, âWhen even youâre alive, I will naturally be alive.â
Chu Feng chuckled upon hearing those words. He was laughing at how pitiful Xu Morong was. Even though he was facing an imminent catastrophe, he had absolutely no idea.
âYoung master Xu said that I, Chu Feng, am shameless to the highest level, may I know why you think such a thing?â Chu Feng asked.
âI will only ask you this. Since youâre not here to pester little sister Mingyue, why didnât you state that you didnât come for her from the very start?â asked Xu Morong.
âYoung master Xu, we can be considered to be acquaintances. And today... both you and I have appeared here. Why didnât you tell me the moment you saw me that you didnât come here for me?â Chu Feng asked instead of answering.
âBullshit! I never came here for you to begin with, why do I need to make such a declaration?â Xu Morong questioned.
âIn that case, I have also not come here for miss Mingyue, why do I need to make such a declaration to her?â Chu Feng asked.
âVery well, youâre quite talented with sophistry. In that case, why donât you tell me why you came here?â asked Xu Morong.
âI came here because I received miss Tantai Xingâerâs invitation,â Chu Feng knew that words did not serve to prove anything. Thus, he took out Tantai Xingâerâs invitation letter as he spoke.
Xu Morong directly snatched the invitation letter from Chu Feng. After looking at it carefully, a mocking smile appeared on his face.
âThis forgery is quite good, itâs no wonder you were able to sneak your way in here. However, while youâre able to deceive others, you cannot deceive me. This invitation letter of yours is a phoney!â Gong Morong spoke loudly.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âItâs actually a fake invitation?â
âSure enough, what Xu Morong said is true, this Chu Xuanyuanâs son is a despicable and vile man.â
âIf I didnât witness it myself, I truly wouldâve never dared to imagine that Chu Xuanyuan, such an upright individual, could actually give birth to a despicable son like that Chu Feng.â
âHis illustrious name has been completely ruined by this child.â
âSuddenly, I feel extreme sympathy for the young miss of the Gong Clan. To be engaged to such a shameless man, she will likely never be able to shake off that reputation in her entire life.â
All of a sudden, practically everyone felt that Chu Fengâs invitation letter was a phoney. Because of that, they also started to feel what Xu Morong said to be correct.
They believed that Chu Feng was a shameless person, and had snuck his way into the gathering all so that he could pester Gong Mingyue.
Furthermore, he said he didnât like Gong Mingyue after he was rejected by her. This caused the crowd to feel with even greater certainty that Chu Feng was completely shameless, shameless to the extreme.
Hearing the crowdâs discussions and even curses, Chu Feng did not show the slightest trace of anger. The reason for that was because he had grown accustomed to this sort of scene, and had seen countless people like those before him -- ignorant fools that would voice malicious words at others without knowing the truth. That was the inherent quality of the majority of people.
Thus, Chu Feng only smiled and shook his head. Furthermore, that smile of his appeared to be very mocking.
âSmile? Heâs actually smiling? Oh how shameless is he?!â
Chu Fengâs smile infuriated the crowd.
Because of that, they began to lash out at Chu Feng even more. They were acting as if they were warriors of justice on a crusade to eliminate the scourge that was Chu Feng.
Seeing such an intense reaction from the crowd, Xu Morong had a very pleased look in his eyes. This was... precisely the result that he wanted to see.
âEveryone, please get to know the truth first. Chu Feng isnât a bad person.â
Suddenly, a voice supporting Chu Feng sounded at that moment. It was Gong Qing.
Faced with the crowdâs attacks toward Chu Feng, she was no longer able to remain silent anymore, and stood out for Chu Feng.
âLil Qing, donât be deceived by this shameless sham.â
âDid you not see when he insulted your big sister earlier?â
However, right after Gong Qing stood up for Chu Feng, she was immediately pulled back by the Gong Heavenly Clansmen.
Gong Mingyue also glared at Gong Qing angrily.
In those circumstances, Gong Qing didnât know what to do. Besides, her previous rebuttal was completely ineffective.
Everyone seemed to be possessed. It seemed like... they were determined to take care of Chu Feng.
âChu Feng, are you going to scram by yourself or do you want me, Xu Morong, to do it for you?â asked Xu Morong.
âHave him scram? Iâm afraid that wouldnât do.â
âSomeone as shameless as him must be taught a proper lesson!â
âThatâs right. He must be taught a lesson so that he can learn. Otherwise, if we are to disregard him like that, we will instead encourage him to continue to do evil!â
The crowdâs snarls resonated nonstop. Sure enough, they were not planning to allow Chu Feng to leave like that.
âChu Feng, you cannot blame me for this. After all, this is the will of the people.â
âThus, today... I cannot allow you to leave safely,â Xu Morong said.
âBoom~~~â
Suddenly, a loud sound was heard.
Following that, the crowd all turned their eyes upward.
The reason for that was because a change had occurred to the Peach Garden Mystic Realm floating above them.
Soon, a spirit formation gate opened from the Peach Garden Mystic Realm. Then, a beautiful figure walked out from it.
Everyone felt deep veneration upon seeing that person. The reason for that was because that person was the one who had called the gathering of the younger generations, Tantai Xingâer.
Merely, when the crowd saw Tantai Xingâerâs current expression, they were unable to keep themselves from feeling nervous, so much so that they became speechless.
At that moment, Tantai Xingâer had a very gloomy look on her face.
Although Tantai Xingâer was famous for being good-natured, no one dared to provoke her now.
They all knew how terrifying an angered Tantai Xingâer was.
âMiss Tantai Xingâer has come. With this, thereâs no need for me to uphold justice anymore,â after seeing Tantai Xingâer, Xu Morong immediately changed his tone. With a beaming smile, he flew toward Tantai Xingâer. As he flew, he even said, âMiss Xingâer, that man over there is extremely despicable. Please...â
âWoosh~~~â
Suddenly, Tantai Xingâer waved her sleeve. Boundless martial power turned into an enormous palm. The palm filled the sky as it swept past, ruthlessly striking Xu Morong.
âEeeaahh~~~â
A scream resonated through the peach garden. Xu Morong was knocked flying, and did not stop until he was smashed into the mountain rocks.
When he landed, Xu Morong was completely mutilated, and his aura was extremely weak.
âThis...â
The crowd were all dumbstruck by what had suddenly happened, and confused expressions filled their faces.
At the time when the crowd were confused, Tantai Xingâer opened her mouth and coldly asked, âWho else dares to act disrespectful toward the important guest Iâve invited?â
Hearing Tantai Xingâerâs question, the crowd were all confused as to who the important guest mentioned by Tantai Xingâer was.
They were confused until Tantai Xingâer turned her ice-cold gaze to Gong Mingyue, âI seem to recall that you were disrespectful too.â
Once Tantai Xingâer said those words, the crowdâs hearts all tensed up. Subconsciously, they turned to Chu Feng.
âHeavens! Could it be that he really was invited? That invitation letter is not a fake?â
âCould it be that the important guest invited by Miss Tantai Xingâer is him?!â
âBoom~~~â
The crowd all felt their heads explode upon thinking of that!!!
Especially Gong Mingyue. At that moment, she was standing there completely stunned.
