Chapter 5429: Insane
It was Bai Yunqing. He happened to stumble upon the sight of Ling Hang attempting to do something inappropriate to Li Taâer. He didnât know what had happened, but he couldnât allow Ling Hang to harm Li Taâer.
âHow unexpected. Trash like you was actually able to get in here.â Ling Hang was surprised.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âScrew you!â
Bai Yunqing didnât want to waste his breath talking to Ling Hang. He hurled his fist out to strike Ling Hang in the face.
Ling Hang willingly took the punch face-on. He was pushed back, but he didnât suffer any injuries as a result.
âYour spirit power is decent, but itâs a pity that youâre no match for me here,â Ling Hang sneered in disdain.
âYou deserve to die for daring to touch my big sister Taâer!â
Bai Yunqing formed a series of hand seals and manifested a massive formation sword. He was a Purple Dragon God-cloak World Spiritist, but his strength was further enhanced by the power bestowed upon him by this land. He swung his sword toward Ling Hang.
âYou donât know your place!â Ling Hang sneered.
With a casual wave of his hand, Bai Yunqingâs formation sword shattered into pieces. Ling Hangâs fighting prowess was far above Bai Yunqing, not because of the gap in their spirit power but because he had received much more power from this hall.
âA trash dares to ruin my plan?â Ling Hang snorted.
He raised his palm and thrust it toward Bai Yunqing. It might appear to be a simple palm strike, but the force behind it was far stronger than Bai Yunqingâs earlier sword. If the attack were to land, Bai Yunqing would definitely sustain severe injuries.
Refusing to admit defeat, Bai Yunqing quickly constructed a shield formation to counterattack. However, his shield formation could not hold its own against the palm strike and was crushed to bits. There was already no time for Bai Yunqing to deploy another defensive maneuver, and he had no choice but to accept his fate.
Boom!
With a resounding explosion, Ling Hangâs palm strike suddenly stalled to a halt. A person had appeared in front of Bai YunqingâChu Feng.
âBig brother Chu Feng!â
Bai Yunqing was overjoyed to see Chu Feng, but Li Taâer had a conflicted look on her face.
âHoh! You also managed to get in here? I have really underestimated the two of you.â
Ling Hang wasnât nervous at all to see Chu Feng. Instead, he thought that this was a good opportunity for him to teach the two of them a lesson for their earlier arrogance.
âToday, Iâll let the two of you know that I, Ling Hang⦠Uwah!â
Before Ling Hang could even finish his sentence, he was suddenly flattened to the ground. Chu Feng had released his spirit power to crush Ling Hang into the ground, rendering him immobile.
âBig brother Chu Feng, youâ¦â
It was only then that Bai Yunqing realized that there was a divine aura shrouding Chu Feng, which made it seem as if he was the master of this treasure. It was clear as day to them that Chu Feng had been bestowed with far greater power than Ling Hang.
âWhatâs with your confused expression? You donât understand whatâs going on?â Chu Feng eyed Ling Hang with narrowed eyes.
âHow could you acquire even greater power than me here?â Ling Hang raised his doubt.
âItâs because of this.â Chu Feng opened up his palm, revealing the copper key in his grasp. The copper key was releasing a brilliant glow, revealing that it was the source of his power.
âHow could you still be in possession of the copper key if youâre still in here?â
Bai Yunqing beat Chu Feng to answer that question. âThatâs because my big brother Chu Feng is far more talented than you. He is able to enter this place even without relying on that key.â
âThatâs impossible. Absolutely impossible.â Ling Hang refused to accept that answer.
âImpossible your head!â
Bai Yunqing marched up to Ling Hang with the intention to beat him up, but Li Taâer stopped him, saying, âForget it, Bai Yunqing. Heâs from the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion.â
Now that Li Taâer had calmed down from the earlier shock, she realized that they couldnât afford to offend Ling Hang. However, Bai Yunqing simply sneered, âSo what if heâs from the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion? I wonât forgive anyone who dares to hurt my big sister Taâer!â
Bai Yunqing insistently hurled a fist toward Ling Hang, only to be stopped by a hand.
âBig brother Chu Feng?â Bai Yunqing looked at Chu Feng in confusion, not understanding why the latter had stopped him.
âYour big sister Taâer is right. You shouldnât touch Ling Hang. He is from the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion, after all,â Chu Feng said.
âHehâ¦â Ling Hang sneered. âIt looks like your big brother knows his place. Touching someone from the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion will only bring disaster uponâ¦â
Before he could finish his sentence, a fist had sunk into his face, causing three of his teeth to fly in all directions. It was Chu Feng.
âY-you dare to hit me?â Ling Hang stared at Chu Feng in disbelief.
âOf course. What makes you think that I wouldnât?â Chu Feng asked.
âI am from the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion!â Ling Hang roared.
âMy greatest hobby is none other than beating up people like you from the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion!â Chu Feng scoffed as he continued throwing punches and kicks at Ling Hang.
His movements were primitive and without any flair, but such attacks were the most humiliating of all. Ling Hang was left groaning in pain.
Li Taâer was taken aback to witness Chu Fengâs violence. She didnât think that he would be so bold as to even disregard someone from the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion. She had thought that Chu Fengâs rumors were exaggerated, but it looked like they had been toned down instead.
Chu Feng stopped shortly after, but by then, Ling Hang was bruised and swollen all over so that it was almost impossible to make out who he was.
âS-stop hitting me! Stop hitting me!â Ling Hang pleaded for mercy. His previously suave face was now as swollen as a pigâs head.
âApologize to my brother,â Chu Feng ordered.
âI-Iâm sorry, Brother Bai. I was wrong.â Ling Hang obediently admitted his mistake.
âRemember, I am the one who beat you up today. If you want to exact vengeance on anyone, come for me instead,â Chu Feng said.
âI understand⦠No no no, what I mean is that I wonât exact vengeance on you. I was wrong. Iâll earnestly repent for my actions!â Ling Hang exclaimed.
Li Taâer was left feeling conflicted by Ling Hangâs cowardice, but Chu Feng was already used to it. He had seen far too much of such stuff.
Weng!
A surge of teleportation energy enveloped the entire hall.
âTimeâs up,â Chu Feng murmured.
The group was teleported out of the copper palace.
Ling Hang quickly constructed a recovery formation to treat himself, fearing that others would see him in his current embarrassing state.
Li Taâer looked a little nervous. She was still worried about how Ling Hang would react to this incident. Thus, she looked at Chu Feng, only to see that his attitude hadnât changed in the least despite having lost the power he had gained from the copper palace.
âThis fellow.â Li Taâer couldnât tell whether he was brave or a fool.
âMy treasure! My family heirloom!â Ling Hang suddenly howled.
Cracks had appeared on the copper palace, a sign that it couldnât be used anymore.
âItâs you! You must be the one behind this! I donât know what kind of sorcery you employed, but you must be the culprit who ruined my family heirloom! Chu Feng, I wonât spare you. You must pay the price of your actions!â Ling Hang pointed his finger at Chu Feng and roared.
âHavenât you been beaten up enough?â Chu Feng asked.
âYouâ¦â Ling Hang shuddered in fear upon hearing those words. The earlier beating he went through had traumatized him. However, he quickly regained his courage and bellowed, âYou think that Iâll be afraid of you? Chu Feng, you must not know who I am! My father and Ling Shengâerâs father are sworn brothers. By offending me, you have also offended Ling Shengâer. Thereâs no way sheâll let you off!â
âLing Shengâer?â Both Chu Feng and Bai Yunqing were surprised to hear that name.
âYou donât know Ling Shengâer? Well, thatâs only to be expected. You arenât from the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion, after all. You should have at least heard of Ling Moâer, right? Ling Shengâer is Ling Moâerâs little sister, but her talent far surpasses the latter.
âLet me put it in such a way. You know about Jie Ranqing, right? Ling Shengâerâs talent is second only to Jie Ranqing in the entire history of the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion. Almost everyone in the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion believes that itâs inevitable that Ling Shengâer will surpass Ling Xiao⦠and her father is my fatherâs sworn brother!
âYou must have thought that Iâm just an ordinary member of the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion, but you barked up the wrong tree. Do you know just how big of trouble youâre in?â Ling Hang sneered.
âLing Hang, do me a favor,â Chu Feng suddenly said.
âAh?â Ling Hang was surprised by the sudden change of tone.
âSend Ling Shengâer my regards when you return,â Chu Feng replied with a smile.
âSend her your regards? Are you sick in the head? Who do you think you are to send my little sister Shengâer your regards? You must be out of your mind!â Ling Hang was bewildered.
