My Mother-in-Law Gifted Me a Building

The legend of the Heaven-Slaying Sword Emperor has persisted for centuries. After all, in his time, he was like a god.

”You all can have your fun. I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll be leaving.” The man in the black robe turned and left.

He didn’t hesitate for a moment.

He knew all too well how terrifying a ruthless figure like the Heaven-Slaying Sword Emperor was. How could someone who inherited his legacy be anything but powerful?

If he didn’t leave now, he would very likely be beaten to death by Chu Feng today.

Besides their formidable strength, there was another reason these men had lived to such an old age.

They were survivors. The moment things looked bad, they ran.

That was how they had managed to live so long.

”It can’t be... Is this kid the heir to that god of slaughter? Did he actually break through to that legendary realm back then?” the one-armed man asked in horror, his face contorting as he stared at Chu Feng.

”Who knows? But the Martial Arts Realm won’t be peaceful from now on. With such a formidable young man in the Chu Family, we might as well give up. I’m leaving too.” The man from the Corpse Transport Sect turned and left without another word.

None of them wanted to die. Self-preservation was paramount.

”Damn it, I’m out of here too! If I’d known the Chu Family had a little freak like this, you couldn’t have paid me to come!” another Cultivator at the Human Martial Arts Peak Realm couldn’t help but curse.

Soon, nearly all of them had fled.

Only the man in the linen clothes and straw hat remained. He was pinned down by the Heaven-Slaying Sword in Chu Feng’s hand, unable to move a muscle.

He had actually realized what Sword Technique Chu Feng was using the moment they clashed, but by then, it was already too late for him to escape.

”Are you the heir to the Heaven-Slaying Sword Emperor?” the man in the linen clothes and straw hat demanded.

”Not really. I just happened to receive his legacy, that’s all,” Chu Feng replied.

”I surrender. Let me leave, and I swear I will never involve myself in the Chu Family’s affairs again,” the man in linen clothes said.

”Hah! Isn’t your Mao Sect usually so arrogant? What, you think you can just run wild here and then walk away? Not a chance!” Chu Tianshan rebuked him angrily.

”Chu Tianshan, what more do you want?” the man demanded.

”The swords your Mao Sect forges are quite fine. Send our Chu Family three hundred superior-grade swords, and you can walk out of here. Otherwise, this isn’t over!” Chu Tianshan declared.

”Don’t take it too far!” the man in linen clothes snapped.

The words infuriated him, but there was nothing he could do. He was at Chu Feng’s mercy.

”You’re free to disagree,” Chu Tianshan said with a cold smirk. ”But that sword in the boy’s hand doesn’t play favorites. Don’t come crying to me when your head goes flying.”

After a moment’s hesitation, the man in linen clothes finally relented.

”Fine! Just let me go.” The man was getting desperate. With so many people watching, if he were to be killed here, it would be a huge blow to the Mao Sect.

”Then go,” Chu Feng said. He had no intention of killing him, so he let the man go.

The moment Chu Feng withdrew the Heaven-Slaying Sword, the man turned and vanished in a few quick flashes.

Just then, Chu Feng suddenly sensed something was off as a faint, sweet fragrance drifted toward him.

Chu Feng then turned to Chu Tianshan. ”Don’t you forget your promise.”

Outside, the members of the Chu Family who had witnessed the outcome went from fear and anger to utter shock and ecstasy.

None of them had expected the Chu Family to resolve this crisis so easily. It was simply exhilarating.

They had always known Chu Feng was strong, but they had assumed his power was roughly on par with their family head.

Only now did they realize that Chu Feng’s strength surpassed even that of their own Old Ancestor.

He had single-handedly driven off five or six experts at the Human Martial Arts Peak Realm. His power was simply immense.

When Chu Wushuang approached, the way she looked at Chu Feng was completely different. Her gaze was now filled with even greater adoration and infatuation.

”Bring out the wine and food! We must celebrate!” Chu Tianshan shouted joyfully.

”Will the Old Ancestor be joining us?” a Chu Family disciple asked.

”Of course! An occasion this joyous must be celebrated together!” Chu Tianshan said happily.

”From this day forward, no one will dare to provoke our Chu Family again! After this battle, the Chu Family’s name will echo far and wide!” Chu Tianshan proclaimed with a triumphant shout.

His words might have seemed like a slight exaggeration.

However, they were rooted in fact. After all, Chu Feng had fought against experts of the Human Martial Arts Peak Realm today, easily defeating two of them while the rest retreated without even putting up a fight.

What average family or power would dare to move against the Chu Family now?

It seemed Chu Feng could take on seven or eight Cultivators of the Human Martial Arts Peak Realm by himself. If he couldn’t, the result of today’s battle would have been tragic.

And on top of that, Chu Tianshan was also at the Human Martial Arts Peak.

A single Chu Family with two experts at the Human Martial Arts Peak.

Even some Major Sects and great families couldn’t necessarily field two experts at the Human Martial Arts Peak Realm.

At this moment, the Cultivators from the various other clans who had been watching from the outside all surged forward.

They all began to offer their congratulations.

In truth, they had all come wanting to see the Chu Family’s downfall, but they never expected them to turn the tables and snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.
