Martial God Asura

Chapter 6249: Intimidating Me?

Chu Feng also became the center of attention due to Wang Qiang’s declaration. They thought that something must have happened between them for Wang Qiang to suddenly make such a declaration.

“I trust you, brother, so stop speaking. We can settle this quietly among ourselves. Don’t do this. It’s too embarrassing.” Chu Feng quickly dragged Wang Qiang’s raised hand down.

“I-I-I’m just saying it aloud to show my sincerity,” Wang Qiang exclaimed. “Brother, you don’t doubt me, r-r-right? I don’t mean anything like that.”

“I believe you.”

Chu Feng trusted Wang Qiang’s character. The latter might be severely lacking in tact, but he was a trustworthy person.

Soon, people started stepping out from the illusion formation. Most had awful looks on their faces; only some were smiling. The illusion formation was created by a Heavenly Dragon World Spiritist. As soon as they stepped in, they forgot it was a trial and thought it was reality.

All of them went through the same experience in the illusion formation.

They entered the Immemorial Bloodline Tower, and Chu Feng saved their lives. Later, Chu Feng encountered danger, and they were made to choose between betraying Chu Feng and escaping safely or risking their life by helping Chu Feng.

Those with awful looks on their faces had chosen to betray Chu Feng.

Those who were smiling had chosen to help Chu Feng.

But there were very few kind-hearted people. Of the 30,000 people who went through the illusion formation, only 37 of them had chosen to help Chu Feng.

With a wave of his sleeves, Chu Feng took out Cosmos Sacks of another color and tossed them to the 37 people. The 37 people tried to open it but to no avail.

Just as they were about to ask about it, Chu Feng said, “You have been eliminated.”

“Ah? Why? We helped you in the formation!”

The 37 people felt confused and aggrieved.

Even those who had betrayed Chu Feng were taken aback too. They didn’t expect the people who had chosen Chu Feng to be eliminated like that.

“You aren’t suited for this. Leave. Go as far as you can.” Chu Feng waved his hand.

“W-what about us?” someone who had betrayed Chu Feng in the illusion formation asked.

“You may stay,” Chu Feng replied.

Those who had betrayed Chu Feng were initially startled, but they soon revealed gleeful smiles. Some even taunted those who helped Chu Feng, saying, “The strong preys on the weak in the world of cultivation. The likes of you aren’t suited for this world. Scram as far as you can, or else it’s just a matter of time before you’re eaten up.”

Many people agreed with those words.

“Hypocrites pretending to be good people. Pui!”

“You deserve that!”

Those who were eliminated had their heads lowered a second ago, but their regret vanished without a trace upon learning they were the chosen ones, and they became extremely gleeful.

In the first place, they didn’t regret betraying Chu Feng; they only regretted failing to clear the illusion formation.

“B-b-brother, why are you doing this?” Wang Qiang asked Chu Feng in confusion.

“Ah, I forgot to tell you. The Immemorial Bloodline Tower becomes transparent when fully activated, allowing the spectators outside to see what’s happening inside. On top of that, our disguise means will unravel, revealing our true identity,” Chu Feng discreetly replied.

“I understand. You’re w-w-worried that they’ll be implicated when our identities are revealed.” Wang Qiang widened his eyes in realization.

“Mmhm. We can’t implicate the kind.” Chu Feng looked at the ones who were gleeful despite having betrayed him. “We’ll see what fate has in store for these people. I’ll count them lucky if the Huangfu Heavenly Clan doesn’t go after them. Otherwise... since their favorite catchphrase is that the world of cultivation is a place where the strong preys on the weak, they shouldn’t blame us for fooling them.”

“T-t-they deserve it,” Wang Qiang said.

“Are you sure you still want to enter? I wouldn’t advise you to,” Chu Feng said.

“W-w-what are you saying? What do you take me, W-W-Wang Qiang to be? When have I feared death?” Wang Qiang grumbled in displeasure.

“You might not fear death, but what about the Divine Body Heavenly Mansion? You might implicate them if you get revealed here,” Chu Feng said.

“It’s fine. I-I-I have already let out the news that I’m leaving the Divine Body Heavenly Mansion.”

Chu Feng was taken aback. Why would a Divine Body Heavenly Mansion’s grand elder be protecting him if he had already left them?

“It’s a feint lest I bring trouble upon the Divine Body Heavenly Mansion, especially since I have offended the Netherworld Sect. But I am still a member of the Divine Body Heavenly Mansion. I’ll tell my grand elder later not to go in,” Wang Qiang explained.

Having made up their minds, Chu Feng continued filtering the group till there were only 20,000 people left. These were the people he had meticulously chosen, so they unsurprisingly passed through the Huangfu Heavenly Clan’s gates without a hitch.

Just like that, Chu Feng successfully obtained a tower token from the Huangfu Heavenly Clan.

He activated it and enveloped his team members in it. The tower token could be described as a mini-contract formation; his team members could choose whether to join him or not. Needless to say, all his team members accepted his invitation.

With that, they completed the binding. Chu Feng fulfilled his promise and gave his team members the incentives he promised them.

He was examining the tower token when the surroundings suddenly quietened down. He didn’t have to lift his head to tell that someone important had just arrived—it was the juniors from the Huangfu Heavenly Clan.

Huangfu Shangwu was among them too, but he trailed behind the man and the woman from earlier. They were the ones leading the group.

“What’s your name?” the man asked.

“Shouldn’t you i-i-introduce yourself first before asking for someone’s name?” Wang Qiang asked.

“Shut your mouth. I’m not talking to you.” The man glared at Wang Qiang.

A yellow-bearded Huangfu Heavenly Clan’s elder suddenly descended from the sky. All of the Huangfu Heavenly Clan’s juniors, except for the man and the woman, bowed to him, including Huangfu Shangwu. This showed he had a high standing in the Huangfu Heavenly Clan, yet he fawned over the man and the woman like a lapdog.

“They are our clan chief’s children, young master Huangfu Jiangxing and Miss Huangfu Jiangyue,” the yellow-bearded elder said.

“I don’t care what’s your name, but let me give you some words of reminder. We’ll welcome you if you follow our rules, but we won’t hold back if you try something with us,” Huangfu Jiangxing pointed a finger at Chu Feng and said those words before turning around to leave.

“H-H-Huangfu Jiangxing and Jiangyue... Judging from their name, they probably possess General-tier Heavenly Bloodline. Does the Huangfu Heavenly Clan have no other Saint-tier Heavenly Bloodline aside from the Huangfu Shengyu whom you killed?” Wang Qiang asked via voice transmission.

Chu Feng didn’t answer, but a smile formed on his lips.

Trying to intimidate me? I’m too familiar with this.

Such situations had happened so many times that he couldn’t even remember how many people had tried this on him. But he remembered none of them having a good outcome.
