999 Kinds of God-level Identities, Various Ways to Beat the Protagonist

15: The top of my head is green, and tears are flowing down uncontrollablyChongxuan Pavilion, Chongming Palace.

Splash!

Splash!

...

A massive current of water formed a silver river, cascading down the steep cliff face, splashing water everywhere, and exuding an overwhelming Spiritual Qi.

Beside the waterfall, pavilions, terraces, and corridors were integrated with the mountains and water.

As the Cultivation place for the Pavilion Revered Master, it appeared simple but was, in fact, far from it.

The Spiritual Qi floating in the air was incredibly dense, and all around were countless magic arrays and runes, all in the details.

In the main pavilion, surrounded by all the other pavilions like stars surrounding the moon.

Chu Feng, dressed in a black robe, sat cross-legged, comprehending the Innate Chaos Sutra.

Suddenly, his sword-like eyebrows twitched slightly, and he opened his eyes, vast as stars.

“Escaped?”

“As expected of the Heavenly Mandate Protagonist; even when falling into a dangerous place, he can find new life from certain death and even gain an Opportunity.”

“This Void Realm displacement technique... at the very least, it’s a method only a Great Saint can use.”

“If I really were just an ordinary Saint, I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to do anything to him.”

A faint smile hung at the corner of his mouth, carrying a hint of cynicism.

Under the coverage of his Great Emperor Divine Thought, everything happening in Chongxuan Pavilion was within his perception, naturally including Gu Yan, who had just escaped.

If he wished, he could easily capture Gu Yan and bring him back.

But there was no need; what he wanted was the heavenly fate treasure chest.

After several days of research, Chu Feng had understood that simply beating Gu Yan would no longer yield any benefits; letting him jump around a bit more would bring rewards.

“Oh?”

“After finally escaping, instead of hurrying away, he came to Chongming Palace.”

“Interesting, does he want to see Nangong Qin?”

“Gu Yan, Gu Yan, should I call you infatuated, or foolish?”

A hint of mockery appeared in Chu Feng’s eyes; this Gu Yan was a typical Heavenly Mandate Protagonist full of youthful Qi.

Impulsive, arrogant, and willful.

These were all fatal weaknesses.

Well, there’s something I need to verify; it’s not bad to use you as a guinea pig.

He sensed Gu Yan’s movement trajectory getting closer and closer, then rose and walked out of the main hall.

Behind the main hall of Chongming Palace, a waterfall cascaded down, forming a pool called Qianxuan Holy Spring.

Qianxuan Holy Spring was a Cultivation Secret Realm that could greatly refine the physical body.

To enter such a Secret Realm in Chongxuan Pavilion required a huge price.

Of course, for Chu Feng, it was useless, just a bathhouse.

It was excellent for bathing and relaxing, though.

He walked leisurely, and with each step he took, the surrounding space changed slightly, a method infinitely more profound than the Void Realm technique Gu Yan used.

In the blink of an eye, Chu Feng arrived outside the Qianxuan Holy Spring; the spring water glowed with a faint silver light, and heavy white mist floated on the surface, like a fairyland on earth.

His black robe naturally receded, revealing a perfectly proportioned, muscular physique with clear lines.

As he stepped into the Qianxuan Holy Spring water, feeling the warm spring water nourishing him, a soft voice came from his ear: “Husband, may I come in?”

“En.”

Chu Feng was not surprised by Nangong Qin’s arrival.

In fact, every time he came here to bathe these past few days, Nangong Qin would voluntarily come to serve him.

Soon, a graceful figure was seen from beyond the mist, walking gracefully.

Nangong Qin was clad only in a sheer black veil, a large expanse of her fair skin exposed.

A fragrant scent wafted over, and as Nangong Qin approached, her exquisite face was tinged with a blush, her dark long hair gently falling over her shoulders, with three parts charm and seven parts holiness, like a fairy descending to the mortal world.

A pair of round, slender jade legs stepped into the pool, the black veil becoming soaked in the Saint Spring, creating an ambiguous atmosphere.

A pair of soft hands gently rested on Chu Feng’s shoulders, slowly massaging him, like a maidservant.

Chu Feng was not like Gu Yan, a timid Heavenly Mandate Protagonist who valued his integrity; as a villain, if he didn’t enjoy himself, would he still be called a villain?

He closed his eyes, enjoying Nangong Qin’s service.

Neither of them spoke, remaining silent and perfectly in sync.

Suddenly, Chu Feng slowly opened his eyes and glanced faintly upwards.

Heh heh, he came quite fast, didn’t he?

You can’t see this kind of scene.

With a thought, the Saint Spring immediately became foggy.

The mist was very thick; from the outside, only two blurry figures could be seen.

Gu Yan, who had transformed into nothingness, controlled the power of the mysterious gate, silently sneaking into Chongming Palace.

He secretly searched in Chongming Palace for a long time but could not find his Revered Master’s figure.

Where did she go?

Wait, Qianxuan Holy Spring.

Gu Yan’s heart suddenly stirred, he stomped his foot, and with the power of the Void Realm, he appeared outside the Saint Spring.

Even with the thick mist obscuring his view, he still spotted a familiar figure.

Revered Master?

And there’s another person, that guy... a man?

Gu Yan’s heart trembled, his eyes wide, almost unable to believe his own eyes!

He stared intently into the Qianxuan Holy Spring, but the mist was too thick, and he could only see two blurry shadows.

How could this be?

What is Revered Master doing?

He couldn’t help but tremble all over!

He wanted to see clearly, but he found that the mist was too thick!

He couldn’t see anything at all!

He could only vaguely hear some sounds!

Gu Yan gritted his teeth; although he relied on the power of the mysterious gate, he dared not get too close.

If he were discovered and captured again, even the mysterious gate might be found.

He could only prick up his ears, wanting to hear what these two were saying.

“Husband, what’s wrong?”

Nangong Qin noticed the mist thickening, and her Phoenix eyes moved slightly; she was a clever person, and as if she had thought of something, she asked softly.

Chu Feng’s gaze was fixed on the calm pool water in front of him, and he casually asked, “Has the wedding date been set?”

Nangong Qin’s delicate hand stiffened slightly, and she immediately said, “Elder Jiang and the others have already invited various forces from the Xuan Realm, tentatively set for half a month from now.”

Wedding date, half a month later?

Gu Yan, hidden in the dark, heard this and his heart trembled.

Even though he had gradually come to terms with reality, hearing this news now still felt like a heavy hammer slamming into his heart, causing him unbearable pain.

Chu Feng nodded gently and said, “If you are unwilling, you can still go back on your word now.”

Go back on her word?

Gu Yan clenched his fists; Revered Master, she must be forced, surely she’s unwilling!

As long as Nangong Qin hesitated even a little, he still had a chance!

Nangong Qin’s voice immediately rang out, softly saying, “Husband, it has come to this point, what is there to go back on?”

What point?

What have you two been doing all these days?

Nangong Qin’s voice sounded again: “All of this is my heartfelt willingness. If Husband dislikes me, then I will naturally give up.”

“Heh heh.”

Her voice was calm yet firm, and Chu Feng chuckled lightly, a little surprised.

Nangong Qin lying in front of him would be easily detected.

This woman truly knows how to be sensible.

Forced love is not sweet.

He had never forced Nangong Qin; everything was her own will.

Under normal circumstances, for them, who had no emotional foundation and involved some coercive elements, it would be normal for Nangong Qin to feel some reluctance.

But the words she just spoke were from the bottom of her heart, which gave him a new understanding of Nangong Qin.

Nangong Qin’s heart was very calm; at first, she was indeed a little unwilling.

Entrusting herself to a powerful person she completely did not understand carried great risks.

But she was no longer a teenage girl; whether it was the high betrothal gifts Chu Feng offered, or the precarious Demon Subduing Magic Array suppressed by Chongxuan Pavilion, or the fate of the Nangong Clan, all made her realize that she never had any choice.

Moreover, after spending these days together.

She found that although Chu Feng was strong, he was gentle and easygoing, treated her with great respect, and was also very handsome.

What more could she be dissatisfied with?

Hearing Nangong Qin’s words, so humble that they were in the dust, Gu Yan only felt his throat dry and his head turn green.

This… b*tch!

He was completely disheartened, feeling a grief greater than a dead heart.

[Due to the Heavenly Mandate Protagonist giving up on Nangong Qin, the completion of the hidden quest ’Conquer Nangong Qin’ has increased by 50%. Current completion: 200%. Settle reward?]

Seeing the System panel’s prompt.

Chu Feng smiled indifferently; as expected.

This hidden quest was not about cultivating Nangong Qin’s favorability, but about using Nangong Qin to torment Gu Yan.

In the past few days, he and Nangong Qin had indeed cultivated their relationship, but the completion rate hadn’t increased at all.

As soon as Gu Yan arrived, it immediately surged by 50%.

As long as it was related to Gu Yan, the completion rate would increase.

He held Nangong Qin’s jade hand, pulled her from behind him to his chest, and asked with a faint smile, “I heard you are going to act against the Gu Family, where Gu Yan is from?”

Nangong Qin was suddenly embraced but did not resist; instead, she leaned gently against Chu Feng’s chest, docile as a fawn, her Phoenix eyes moving slightly as she said, “The Elders have made that decision. I did not participate, so I don’t know the specific details.”

Are they talking about me?

The Gu Family?

Gu Yan was startled, as if struck by lightning.

He immediately became anxious.

It was as he expected, the Gu Family was in trouble!

He pricked up his ears, wanting to listen on.

However, the two people in the Saint Spring pool did not continue the conversation on that topic.

Not long after, a decadent sound was heard.

Damn it!

Why did they stop talking? What are they doing?

Gu Yan’s mind was in a mess; although he had a strong possessive desire, he was a traditional person.

Although he had had several confidantes, they had all maintained their integrity and had not reached that step yet.

Now, with some suspicions in his heart, his eyes widened like copper bells, staring downwards, wanting to penetrate the mist.

But unfortunately.

There was too much mist, and tears flowed uncontrollably, blurring his vision.

Listening to Nangong Qin’s gasping sounds.

Gu Yan’s heart was shattered; he bit his teeth tightly, activated the mysterious gate, and disappeared from the spot.

[Due to the Heavenly Mandate Protagonist being greatly stimulated, the completion of the hidden quest ’Conquer Nangong Qin’ has increased by 10%. Current completion: 210%. Settle reward?]

[Due to the Heavenly Mandate Protagonist’s mental breakdown, the completion of the hidden quest ’Conquer Nangong Qin’ has increased by 10%. Current completion: 220%. Settle reward?]

After sensing Gu Yan’s departure, Chu Feng looked up at the sky and smiled faintly.

My Eternal Gate seems really useful.
