Chapter 346 - 346: Slap in the Face

The rest of the Zhao family members stood at the side in fear. They did not know what had happened. Some of their families were even crying in fear.

Chou Yuanceng would never tell his family about the backup plan he had prepared. In Chou Yuanceng’s heart, other than himself, everything else could be used.

The only difference was how much value he could make use of it and how much effort he needed to put in.

Chen Fei appeared in a corner of the city and looked at the Zhao Mansion from afar. At this moment, the auras of cultivators in the aperture tempering realm were mixed together there, and the city’s guards had completely surrounded the area.

If Chen Fei were truly trapped inside, it would be difficult for him to leave unless he fought his way out. However, this method of escape seemed worthless, as it would be playing right into Chou Yuanceng’s hands.

Chen Fei sensed his surroundings and did not find anything unusual. His figure turned into a phantom and rushed towards the city wall.

The city wall had increased its patrol intensity, indicating that Shang Wu City was wary of the possibility that the Zhao Residence was a diversion, and they didn’t want to be taken advantage of by the Yashan Army outside the city.

Chen Fei activated the Shuttle of Flying Clouds in his arms, and his speed increased by a notch. Without Chou Yuanceng to drag him down, Chen Fei’s movements became even more agile and natural.

Under the Wind Gathering Technique, even the sound of the wind was restrained by Chen Fei. This time, the guards on the city wall did not even notice anything strange as Chen Fei had already landed outside the city.

A moment later, Chen Fei returned to the top of the mountain.

However, just as he approached, Chen Fei’s figure stopped. Looking at the surroundings of the mountain, Chen Fei frowned slightly.

“Yashan Army?” Chen Fei whispered.

Even though there was no one around, Chen Fei could still sense something strange with his senses.

“Good eyesight. We hid like this, but you still saw through us.”

A hearty laugh rang out. Liang Zhongpu walked out slowly, holding Chen Fei’s half-spirit weapon in his hand. There were two people following behind him, sizing up Chen Fei from head to toe.

“I have no intention of getting involved in the matter between you and Shang Wu City. I’m here to deal with my personal matters.”

Chen Fei looked at the three of them. Liang Zhongpu was at the middle stage of the Aperture Tempering realm. He wore a green robe and looked elegant. However, the light that flashed in his eyes from time to time showed that he was not as gentle as he looked.

The other two, a man and a woman, were both at the early stage of the aperture tempering realm. The older man was Xu Yanxin, Liang Zhongpu’s junior brother.

The other female cultivator was called Liang Ruolan. She looked young and her aura was agile. She should have just broken through to the aperture tempering realm less than a year ago and was still consolidating her cultivation.

“In the middle of the night, sneaking around, and entering Shang Wu City without notice. Do you think it’s enough to claim you had no intention of getting involved?” Xu Yanxin stared at Chen Fei, his hostility evident in his eyes, not bothering to conceal it. If it weren’t for Liang Zhongpu being present, Xu Yanxin might have already rushed up to subdue Chen Fei.

“No need for such aggression,” Liang Zhongpu waved his hand, looked at Chen Fei, and smiled, saying, “Could you please clarify your identity first? With both armies at war, your sudden late-night entry and exit from Shang Wu City raise suspicions.”

“He’s just a rural independent cultivator.”

Chen Fei shook his head slightly and looked at the half-spirit weapon in Liang

Zhongpu’s hand. “Can you return it to me? 1 will leave Shang Wu City immediately.”

“Coming and going as you please, what kind of place do you think this is?” Xu Yanxin shouted.

Chen Fei furrowed his brows and turned to look at Xu Yanxin, his expression gradually turning cold. Chen Fei simply didn’t want to do meaningless things, but that didn’t mean he would allow others to act this way in front of him.

As Xu Yanxin saw Chen Fei turning his gaze towards him, he was about to continue speaking. However, for some reason, after meeting Chen Fei’s eyes, he suddenly felt a chill creeping up on him.

This chill came out of nowhere, but Xu Yanxin felt that if he said one more word, he might have to face a terrifying disaster.

It was possible that he would die!

However, the person in front of him was only at the early-stage of the aperture refinement realm, the same cultivation level as him. Moreover, he looked so young. Perhaps the acupoints he opened were not as good as his. How could there be a disaster? How could he die?

Moreover, Liang Zhongpu was still beside him, and there was also Liang Ruolan who had just broken through. Their strength should have far surpassed Chen Fei’s.

Liang Ruolan looked at Xu Yanxin strangely. Xu Yanxin was famous for having a bad temper in the Yashan Sect. Why did he stop after saying two sentences today? This was not like Xu Yanxin’s temper.

Liang Ruolan looked at Chen Fei. He was quite handsome and had reached the early stage of the Aperture Tempering realm at such a young age. How could such a person be a rural independent cultivator?

Chen Fei saw that Xu Yanxin did not say anything else and turned to look at Liang Zhongpu. Liang Zhongpu and Chen Fei looked at each other and felt a wave of pressure.

Liang Zhongpu was surprised. To be able to make him feel pressure with just a gaze, the person in front of him was definitely not a simple aperture tempering realm primary stage cultivator. However, no matter how Liang Zhongpu looked at him, he could only feel that Chen Fei’s cultivation was only at this level.

Liang Zhongpu hesitated for a moment. He loosened his right hand slightly and the half-spirit weapon in his hand flew towards Chen Fei. Chen Fei caught the half-spirit weapon and glanced at the three of them. His figure flashed and disappeared from the spot.

Seeing Chen Fei leave, Liang Zhongpu felt a slight sense of relief. He hadn’t realized it just now, but now he found that at some point, a tremendous pressure had been weighing on his heart.

Only when Chen Fei disappeared did this pressure slowly dissipate.

Liang Zhongpu turned his head to look at Xu Yanxin, only to discover that Xu Yanxin’s face had turned extremely pale and his eyes were bloodshot.

Liang Ruolan, who did not seem to be acting strangely, noticed that something was wrong with the two of them, especially Xu Yanxin. At this moment, it was as if he was seriously injured, but clearly, nothing had happened just now.

“What’s wrong with you?” Liang Zhongpu looked at Xu Yanxin and asked with a frown.

“My core soul was pierced!” Xu Yanxin looked at Liang Zhongpu and said with a wry smile. Although it wasn’t very severe, he would still need some time to recover.

During the moment when he made eye contact with Chen Fei just now, he felt palpitations, indicating that his core soul had been injured. However, it was only after Chen Fei left that Xu Yanxin realized the true horror of the situation.

Liang Zhongpu narrowed his eyes slightly. Was it possible that Chen Fei had directly injured Xu Yanxin’s core soul with just that one look?

When the four of them were probing each other’s core souls just now, trying to silently injure Xu Yanxin’s core soul in this situation required an incredible level of skill and finesse.

Liang Zhongpu could potentially harm Xu Yanxin’s core soul, but doing it silently and without anyone noticing was a whole different level.

Liang Ruolan widened her eyes slightly and couldn’t help but look towards the spot where Chen Fei had disappeared. Who was this person? If a conflict had really occurred just now, were the three of them in real danger?

The other party clearly looked younger than him.

A dozen miles away, Chen Fei stopped and looked around. He identified the direction and rushed towards Qinhai City.

Just now, he had only given Xu Yanxin a small punishment. If the other party had continued to press on, Chen Fei might have drawn his sword.

In the Yashan Army, there were definitely more than three people at the Aperture Tempering realm. However, as long as they dealt with the situation quickly enough, Chen Fei could escape unscathed. Even if the other Yashan Army came too quickly, Chen Fei would be able to kill Xu Yanxin before leaving.

Under the night sky, the wind howled in the wilderness. Chen Fei’s reason for heading to Qinhai City was very simple. He needed to gather information.

Although Chen Fei had heard a few words about Sword Return Tower from others, he did not know the exact situation. He did not even know which city the other party was in.

Now that Shang Wu City was at war, it was not convenient for them to gather information. Naturally, it was more convenient to go to the nearest Qinhai City.

When the time came, Chen Fei would need to purchase a map. Shang Wu City was already the farthest place Chen Fei had traveled to. Any further, and he would start to lose his way.

In such situations, the safest option was to follow a caravan. Although caravans had become scarce nowadays, those that remained were extremely powerful.

These caravans traveled far and wide, and they were well aware of many dangerous areas, allowing them to avoid them in a timely manner.

However, following the caravan was too slow for Chen Fei.

In less than two hours, Chen Fei saw a city appear in the distance. It was Qinhai City.

Chen Fei’s figure turned into a phantom as he directly jumped over the city wall and entered the city.

Perhaps it was because of the war in Shang Wu City, but Qinhai City had received the news that there were more soldiers patrolling on the city wall than before.

However, with the strength of the soldiers and generals that Qinhai City had displayed, if the Yashan Army attacked Qinhai City, then Qinhai City would not have much strength to resist.

This was because there was not a single aperture tempering realm cultivator in Qinhai City. As long as the Yashan Army executed the beheading tactic, it would be enough to cause chaos in Qinhai City.

Then, the Yashan Army’s aperture tempering realm cultivators would open the city gates, allowing the Yashan Army soldiers to march in and easily occupy Qinhai City.

In this world, the influence of high-level cultivators on war was fatal. As long as an Aperture Tempering cultivator wasn’t forced into a corner, he could easily kill a Body Refining realm cultivator.

Unless they used a formation to trap an aperture refinement realm cultivator and then employed a strategy of overwhelming numbers, only then could they hope to kill them on the spot.

However, because they knew about formations, most aperture tempering realm cultivators would not charge into the army because it was easy to fail.

At the combined aperture tempering realm, these powerful individuals could even stand in mid-air, rendering many Body Refining realm cultivators ineffective since they couldn’t even get close.

As for arrows, unless they were shot by aperture tempering realm experts, they wouldn’t even be able to get close to combined aperture tempering realm experts.

The reason why there were so many rebels in this dynasty that could not be eliminated was because there were many experts among them who acted as backup. The reason why the Immortal Cloud City was able to maintain stability was because there were combined aperture tempering realm experts there.

The next morning, Chen Fei appeared in front of the Ruan family. The Ruan family guard looked at Chen Fei and felt that he looked familiar. In the next moment, the guard’s eyes widened.

Because he had met Chen Fei two years ago!

A moment later, the entire Ruan family was in an uproar. All the influential people in the Ruan family hurriedly appeared in the hall. They looked at Chen Fei, who had taken the throne, and did not even dare to breathe loudly..
