My Mother-in-Law Gifted Me a Building

Down in the audience, Chu Qingqing grew anxious when she heard this.

”Is Chu Feng a fool? How could he dare make a bet with the Patriarch?” Chu Qingqing said worriedly.

Even though Chu Feng was strong, she figured he was bound to lose against the Patriarch.

”Sister, don’t worry. Nothing will happen to Chu Feng. I believe in him,” Su Miaoke said with confidence. She knew just how powerful her husband was.

The Patriarch of the Chu Family might be powerful, but since Chu Feng had dared to make the challenge, it meant he was sure of himself.

”Oh, sister-in-law, you don’t understand how powerful the Patriarch is. I don’t see how Chu Feng can possibly win this,” Chu Qingqing said, her expression still fraught with worry.

”No matter how strong he is, he’s not stronger than my husband,” Su Miaoke stated with absolute confidence.

Seeing Su Miaoke’s unwavering faith in Chu Feng, Chu Qingqing said no more. In her view, Chu Feng’s defeat was inevitable.

”You’ve got some nerve, kid. If you win, you can do as you please. Come back, don’t come back—it’s your choice. You’ll be the next Patriarch of the Chu Family, with full authority to mobilize all our resources,” Chu Wuji declared.

Upon hearing this, Chu Feng wasted no more words.

”Bring it on,” Chu Feng said.

With a single step, Chu Wuji appeared on the training field.

He moved so fast that almost no one could even catch a glimpse of his figure.

Chu Feng watched this, perfectly calm. He wasn’t the least bit afraid.

’So what if he’s fast? Once he gets close, I’ll send out a palm strike, and he won’t dare to take it head-on.’

”Draw your sword, or you’ll be at a disadvantage,” Chu Wuji told Chu Feng.

”You said it, not me.” Chu Feng stopped holding back and decided to get serious.

Chu Feng drew the Heaven-Slaying Sword. The moment it left its sheath, a cold light radiated in all directions.

”I’ll give you the first move,” Chu Wuji said coolly. It was clear from his gaze that he didn’t take Chu Feng seriously in the slightest.

He was a Foundation Establishment Realm expert, after all. His combat prowess was immense. Facing a Qi Cultivation Realm opponent like Chu Feng, his arrogance was only natural.

Unfortunately for him, he had no idea that Chu Feng’s true strength was at the Peak of Foundation Establishment.

Chu Feng simply hadn’t revealed his full power earlier, which was why they had all mistaken him for being in the Qi Cultivation Realm.

SHING!

Chu Feng wasted no time. Since his opponent had insisted, he saw no reason to refuse and attacked.

He opened with the Heaven-Slaying Sword Technique.

This was the Sword Technique created by Heaven-Slaying. While it appeared plain and unremarkable, and its execution lacked any flashy moves, it was simple and fluid.

But as the sword strike rippled outward, it felt like a slash that could sunder the heavens, causing the very air to howl.

At first, Chu Wuji remained composed, thinking little of the attack. He intended to block it casually.

CLANG!

But when he raised his weapon to parry, his expression changed in an instant.

’Hmph?’ Chu Wuji was stunned. He hadn’t expected the blow to be so powerful; it nearly knocked the weapon from his hand.

However, no one in the crowd noticed the subtle shift in Chu Wuji’s expression.

”Heh, that kid actually dares to trade blows with the Patriarch. He’s got a death wish,” someone sneered after seeing them clash.

”Hehe, he clearly doesn’t know that the Patriarch’s Sword Skill is the best in the entire Chu Clan. Comparing Sword Skills with the Patriarch? That’s like trying to teach a fish how to swim,” another person said with a laugh.

”Let’s just wait for him to be sent flying. I’ll be the first one to laugh when it happens!”

After witnessing this, many of the Chu Family disciples sneered from the sidelines, their faces full of smug satisfaction. They were all certain Chu Feng was going to lose.

”I really underestimated you,” Chu Wuji said, surprised. His gaze on Chu Feng finally turned serious.

But just then, Chu Feng attacked again, sending several blades of sword light slashing toward him.

It was too late for Chu Wuji to dodge; his only option was to counter with all his strength.

”HAH!” Chu Wuji unleashed a fierce sword strike of his own, the light from his blade just as sharp.

The two were instantly locked in combat.

CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!

After a few more exchanges, Chu Wuji’s expression grew increasingly grim.

”What in the world is this Sword Technique?” Chu Wuji asked in horror.

The might of this Sword Technique was simply too immense. Even as a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator, he was filled with dread when facing it.

It felt as if this Sword Technique could pose a mortal threat to him at any moment, making his heart pound with terror.

”What? Do I need to report my own Sword Technique to you?” Chu Feng sneered.

”You’d better hang in there. It would be quite embarrassing if I knocked you off the stage,” Chu Feng said with a smile.

”Arrogant whelp! You want to knock me off the stage? You’re not worthy!” Chu Wuji retorted, just as arrogant. He was the Patriarch of the Chu Family, after all.

’How humiliating would it be to be knocked off the stage by Chu Feng in front of everyone?’

”Is that so?” Chu Feng continued to sneer.

”Then let me show you the Chu Family’s true Secret Sword Technique—the Qingyang Sword Technique!” Chu Wuji bellowed.

His aura suddenly surged, and his speed increased dramatically. He charged forward, closing the distance in an instant.

BOOM!

As he unleashed his Sword Qi, a deafening explosion rang out. Chu Wuji’s attack power had multiplied several times over.

And yet, faced with this onslaught, Chu Feng remained perfectly calm.
