My Mother-in-Law Gifted Me a Building

When the man stepped forward, the wealthy businessmen at his table jumped in fright.

’Holy hell, the poisoner was at their very table.’

Breaking out in a cold sweat, they all scrambled to get away from him.

”You’ve got some nerve,” Chu Feng said. ”Hiding among these tycoons, pretending to be a subordinate. The average Martial Cultivator wouldn’t spare them a second glance, which is why you dared to show your face so brazenly.”

”I thought my disguise was flawless, but I never expected a brat like you to see through it,” the Qing Gang Leader said. ”Worthy of the Heaven-Slaying Sword Emperor’s successor—you’re impressive, I’ll give you that. I’ll let the Chu Family off the hook this time. I’m leaving.”

Now that he was exposed, the man was ready to just walk away.

”What?” Chu Feng said. ”You think you can just leave? Where do you get the nerve? Are you just going to pretend we’re not here?”

”Heh,” the Qing Gang Leader chuckled, his face oozing confidence. ”You can’t possibly think you can stop me, can you?”

”You old bastard! You poisoned so many people here, and you think you can just walk away? Impossible!” Chu Tianshan declared forcefully. ”You’re not leaving today until you’ve answered for what you’ve done!”

”That’s right,” Chu Feng said. ”You’ll have to leave something behind before you go.”

”Is that so?” The Qing Gang Leader let out a manic laugh. ”Why don’t you give it a try? See if you can actually make me stay.”

”Alright,” Chu Feng said with a calm smile. ”Let’s have a contest. We each make one move. How about we see who dies first?”

”Hah. Kid, I’ll admit, reaching the Human Martial Arts Peak Realm at your age is monstrously talented. But with that much arrogance, aren’t you afraid you’ll die here today?” the Qing Gang Leader sneered.

”What’s there to fear?” Chu Feng said. ”Once you set foot on the path of the Martial Dao, who’s afraid of death? Bring it on.”

In truth, he just wanted to test out his new skill: the external release of Spiritual Power.

”Since you’re looking to die, I’ll be happy to oblige!” the Qing Gang Leader sneered. He was more than eager to eliminate Chu Feng.

Chu Feng posed too great a threat to the Qing Gang’s future. Even though he had the legacy of the Heaven-Slaying Sword Emperor, he was, after all, still young.

Therefore, the Qing Gang Leader was confident he could defeat Chu Feng.

’Even if I can’t win,’ he thought, ’it’s absolutely impossible for Chu Feng to kill me in a single strike.’

”Die!” Chu Feng barked, slashing out fiercely with the Heaven-Slaying Sword.

Spiritual Power surged from his body into the sword, and a brilliant light flared along the blade.

Seeing this, the Qing Gang Leader calmly raised his own weapon to parry.

He had absolute confidence in his own strength and paid Chu Feng’s attack little mind.

However, the man didn’t know that Chu Feng had already reached the Mid-Stage Core Formation Realm and could now channel his externalized Spiritual Power into the Heaven-Slaying Sword.

To the crowd, this spiritual radiance just looked like the normal glint of a sword’s edge, so no one thought much of it.

CLANG!

SNAP!

As their blades met, the Qing Gang Leader’s longsword snapped in two.

The glowing edge of Chu Feng’s sword then slammed viciously into the man’s body.

A wave of Sword Qi, backed by immense power, sent the Qing Gang Leader flying backward.

His body shot back like an arrow loosed from a bow, flying more than ten meters before tumbling right off the edge of Wangyue Peak.

They had been fighting near the edge; the cliff was just a short distance away.

”AHHH—”

A bloodcurdling scream echoed through the pitch-black night sky. Everyone was stunned.

The top half of a broken blade clattered to the ground, the sound sharp and clear.

After taking a strike like that from Chu Feng, he’d be gravely wounded, if not dead outright. Add to that the fall from the cliff... he was almost certainly dead.

The entire crowd was dumbfounded.

”Heh. That’s what you get for underestimating me,” Chu Feng sneered. In his eyes, the man was already dead.

”You... you really took him out in a single blow?” Chu Tianshan stammered, his face a mask of disbelief.

His shock was understandable; the Qing Gang Leader wasn’t just some ordinary expert at the Human Martial Arts Peak Realm.

The man had reached the Human Martial Arts Peak Realm nearly twenty years ago; his power was on a completely different level from the others they had faced.

And yet, Chu Feng had finished him with a single stroke of his sword.

”What else?” Chu Feng said. ”I said one blow, so it was one blow. No messing around. It’s his own fault for looking down on me.”

When the two had started fighting, everyone had backed off to a safe distance.

But they still had a clear view of the fight, and what they saw was simply outrageous.

Incredible.

Though everyone was stunned into a stupor...

...they were all incredibly satisfied with the outcome.

After all, that old bastard, the Qing Gang Leader Zhou Hunyuan, had nearly gotten them all killed.

Now that he had been sent flying off a cliff, it was a deeply satisfying release for everyone!

”Fuck! That son of a bitch is finally dead!” a Cultivator cursed angrily. ”My feud with the Qing Gang is far from over!”

Now that the Qing Gang no longer had an expert at the Human Martial Arts Peak Realm, the other cultivators were fearless. It was time to move against them.

”That’s right! Those bastards are disgusting, always resorting to poison! We have to eliminate scum like them, or none of us will ever be safe!” someone else chimed in.
