âSenior Qiu, Chu Feng isnât an outsider. Heâs a friend of our Dao Sea,â Song Feifei quickly explained.
âJunior Feifei, the Lady of Dao Sea didnât inform us that thereâs going to be a visitor. You should know how important this matter is. We canât let someone as suspicious as him loiter around here!â
Senior Qiu took a much more amicable tone toward Song Feifei, just that his attitude remained hard.
âChu Feng, did you come here under my masterâs invitation?â Song Feifei asked.
Chu Feng was just about to answer when Shengguang Baimei spoke to him through voice transmission.
âChu Feng, this brat is just picking a fight with you for no reason. You should say that you were invited by the Lady of Dao Sea first. Didnât you mention that youâre on good terms with her? You can explain the reason to her afterward.
âThis brat doesnât pose a threat to us, but things could get troublesome if that rank nine Martial Exalted level cultivator comes after us.â
Chu Feng thought that it made perfect sense too. He wasnât afraid of the small fry standing before him, but he wasnât sure what was the stance of the rank nine Martial Exalted level cultivator yet.
If that expert chose to make things hard for him, that would put him in a spot.
So, Chu Feng nodded his head and replied, âIndeed, the Lady of Dao Sea invited me here.â
âI knew it! How else could you have possibly found your way here?â Song Feifei exclaimed with a smile.
âWhereâs your invitation letter?â Senior Qiu stretched his hand forth and asked.
âI donât have one,â Chu Feng replied.
âHow can you prove that you were invited by the Lady of Dao Sea without an invitation letter?â Senior Qiu questioned.
Chu Feng didnât think that the other party would continue to pressure him even though he had already said that he was with the Lady of Dao Sea. This made him feel displeased.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âSenior Qiu, Chu Feng is on close terms with our Dao Sea. He wonât lie about something like this,â Song Feifei spoke up for Chu Feng.
âJunior Feifei, itâs not that I donât trust you, but this matter is of grave importance. Our interests are at stake as well. Unless the Lady of Dao Sea personally verifies his identity, I canât allow him to enter the city. Men, capture him!â
Senior Qiu refused to compromise.
âThat wonât do, Senior Qiu! Chu Feng isnât an outsider. How can you capture him?â
Song Feifei walked over to Senior Qiuâs side and pleaded on Chu Fengâs behalf. Unfortunately, her plea was of little use.
âSenior Feifei, carry me.â
All of a sudden, Yaoyao appeared beside Song Feifei and stretched her hand toward her, asking to be carried.
Song Feifei doted on Yaoyao a lot. Even though she knew that this wasnât a good time to get distracted, she still accepted Yaoyaoâs request and carried her up. Then, she turned her attention back to Senior Qiu, wanting to continue speaking up on Chu Fengâs behalf.
Pah!
A shocking sight occurred.
Yaoyao hurled her little hand against Senior Qiuâs face.
Caught off guard, Senior Qiu was struck in the cheek despite the difference in their cultivation levels. It was just that Yaoyaoâs slap was nothing more than a tickle on the face of a Martial Exalted level cultivator even though she had exerted her full strength.
âYou dare to hit me?â
The slap hardly dealt any damage, but Senior Qiu still lost his temper. He glared at Yaoyao with hostile eyes.
It looked as if he would have killed Yaoyao without any hesitation if not for the fact that there were bystanders around.
âYaoyao, what are you doing?â
Song Feifei was shocked by Yaoyaoâs action and Senior Qiuâs response. She subconsciously took a step back, hoping to protect Yaoyao. Having spent several days together, she knew just what kind of personality Senior Qiu had.
She was really worried that Senior Qiu would harm Yaoyao.
âYaoyao, hurry up and apologize big brother Qiu!â Song Feifei urged.
âNo! That uncle dared to bully my father! Hmph, I was already going easy on him. Wait till I grow older! Iâll suck his origin energies dry!â Yaoyao exclaimed with a pout as she hurled her little fists indignantly.
She didnât think that she had done wrong at all. On the contrary, she felt that she hadnât done enough.
Seeing that, a faint smile appeared on Chu Fengâs solemn face. He never thought that a day would come where a young child would stand up for him. It left him moved.
âBrat, it looks like youâre asking for a beating?â
Senior Qiu grew even angrier upon seeing that Yaoyao wasnât remorseful over her actions at all.
âWho are you calling brat?â Chu Feng bellowed.
There was a change in his gaze, but Senior Qiu didnât seem to have noticed it.
âDid anyone allow you to talk?â Senior Qiu spat disdainfully.
Chu Feng didnât answer. Instead, he headed over to Song Feifeiâs side and carried Yaoyao over into his embrace before turning to look at Senior Qiu.
âSheâs my daughter. I wonât allow anyone to insult her,â Chu Feng replied.
âOh, so this brat is your daughter. No wonder sheâs so ill-bred. That makes you even more unqualified to join us,â Senior Qiu sneered.
âAre you courting death?â
Chu Fengâs face darkened as he emanated a chilling aura.
Everyone shuddered to the aura, including Senior Qiu. When they looked at Chu Feng once more, there was a complicated look in their eyes.
They never thought that Chu Feng could emanate such a cold aura. It was so terrifying that it frightened them.
âYoung friend Chu Feng, you can teach him a lesson if you canât tolerate it anymore. Even if we have to give up on the heritage, we canât let that bastard trample all over us!â
Shengguang Baimei felt angry just looking at it, so he sent a voice transmission to Chu Feng.
As for Chu Feng, he had already made up his mind to teach Senior Qiu a lesson. He had been through so much hardship that that insults couldnât hope to faze him anymore, but he couldnât do the same when it came to Yaoyao.
âWhatâs wrong? You look like youâre going to murder someone. Are you thinking of killing me? Do you even know who I am? Come, my neck is right here. You can swing your blade down on it whenever you want. But do you dare to?â
Even though Senior Qiu was intimidated by Chu Fengâs chilling aura for a moment there, he quickly regained his composure and became even more arrogant. He even walked up to Chu Feng, pointed to his neck, and provoked him.
âWhoâs creating a fuss here?â a voice suddenly boomed.
Chu Feng felt a clench in his heart when he heard the voice. He turned his head over and saw an elder standing on top of the city walls.
âWhy is she here?â
It was a familiar face.
