Huo Feng immediately executed his movement technique and swiftly disappeared from Yun's sight. Yun had originally wanted Huo Feng dead, but he reappeared unscathed to disrupt the situation. Yun's anger surged, and he coldly snorted, saying, "You should cherish the life you've regained. If you insist on coming here to seek death, then I will entertain you properly."
Yun's figure also became illusory, causing Huo Feng to pause momentarily before sneering. "This Yun must also possess some movement technique; his footwork seems lighter than my 'Phantom Steps' and likely superior. However, I can still catch a glimpse of his form. Hmph! He must be spoiled and lacking in training. This scoundrel harms others everywhere; today, I will kill him. At worst, I can escape from the Azure Wave Kingdom to another country."
With this thought, Huo Feng decided to end things quickly and flashed to Yun's side.
"Nether Break"
Although Yun reacted hastily, he turned and summoned a light shield from his chest to block Huo Feng's attack. However, he was forced to retreat repeatedly, his previously arrogant expression replaced by fear.
Yun warily looked at Huo Feng. "How is this possible? Wasn't he just at the Tribulation Pulse Realm Three? How could he suddenly become this strong? If he strikes like that again, I will surely be severely injured. And that 'Protective Barrier Shield' can only be used once; it seems I need to find an opportunity to escape."
Seeing that his attack had failed, Huo Feng immediately retreated as well. He thought to himself, "This scoundrel seems to have many tricks up his sleeve. I need to use a stronger attack; I can't afford to delay in such a crowded place. If this drags on too long, it might be my life on the line."
Noticing Huo Feng was not moving, Yun saw it as a good opportunity and immediately executed his movement technique toward the city. Just then, those around saw Huo Feng's body erupting with Azure Blue Flames, transforming him into a figure engulfed in blue fire. Yun sensed Huo Feng's change but saw him standing still while he desperately ran away, feeling a sense of triumph.
Suddenly, a flash of golden light appeared before Yun; he saw a golden-scaled arm emerge in front of him, its golden claws reaching for his face. Startled, Yun hurriedly retreated just as he felt a wave of heat behind him. Huo Feng, having missed with his claw strike, did not give up but instead shot out two silver blades from his claws, both aimed directly at Yun's heart from different directions.
This was the second stage of "Star Blade," and at the same time, the fiery attack from behind Yun was about to reach him.
Having made up his mind, Huo Feng unleashed all his power. While executing "Phantom Steps," he activated a fire-element Beast Soul seed to create a "Phantom Fire Clone" that remained in place to mislead Yun. The moment Huo Feng appeared before Yun, he transformed his right arm into the "Golden Dragon Arm" and finally unleashed his strongest attack: "Star Blade."
At this point, Yun found himself caught between two attacks. Seeing the ferocity of the assault filled his eyes with despair; his body stiffened in place and could not move as regret flooded his heart.
Just then, a violent surge of Origin Force swept through the area; everyone was forced to kneel on one knee under the pressure, beads of sweat forming on their foreheads. The only person who remained standing was Ruo Xi, though she too was sweating profusely.
At that moment, someone supported Yun while both Huo Feng's Phantom Fire Clone and Star Blade were deflected away. This person glanced at Ruo Xi before dissipating the scattered Origin Force. Huo Feng suddenly felt lighter and looked up toward Yun. He saw a large middle-aged man standing beside Yun; the exposed muscles gave Huo Feng the impression of steel plates. He realized that things were looking grim for him.
At this moment, Ruo Xi also arrived beside Huo Feng. He looked at her urgently and said, "What are you doing here? Leave quickly! I'll hold them off; this person is not someone we can handle."
"I won't leave; we face this together. You didn't abandon me back in the Dark Poison Forest," Ruo Xi replied calmly.
"Get out of here now! Don't meddle in men's affairs! Either listen to me or don't follow me anymore," Huo Feng glared at Ruo Xi, his eyes filled with unwavering determination. This sudden display of dominance made Ruo Xi feel compelled to comply. After giving Huo Feng a deep look, she reluctantly stepped back and quietly hid in the shadows to watch him.
"Have we come to an agreement? I can't bully you, but if you want to kill my nephew, that's not bullying," the middle-aged man spoke.
"Hmph! If you want to fight, then let's fight. Why all the nonsense? You're acting like a woman," Huo Feng knew the situation was dire, so he decided to be bold and arrogant.
"Uncle, kill this bastard! How dare he speak to you like that? It's a great disrespect and an insult to our Martial Hall," Yun added fuel to the fire, looking coldly at Huo Feng.
"I see you still have some spirit; I quite like that. However, if you choose to become our enemy, I will have no choice but to cripple you. But I do appreciate your spirit, so I'll give you a chance. I'll fight you with one hand. If you can injure me even slightly, I won't kill you; I'll only cripple your cultivation so that you can no longer practice. If you can't hurt me, then you'll have to die," the middle-aged man said.
Huo Feng couldn't be bothered with his nonsense and directly commanded the Phantom Fire Clone to attack him. The man stood still, not even pushing Yun away. He must have been very confident in his abilities.
Huo Feng immediately used Phantom Steps to flash behind the man, clawing at his back with the Golden Dragon Arm. To Huo Feng's shock, it felt as if he had struck steel; his claws couldn't penetrate at all. He quickly unleashed Star Blade against the man's back but was sent reeling backward, spitting blood from the backlash.
The man instantly appeared in front of Huo Feng and smiled at him, saying, "I'm sorry, but since you couldn't injure me, you'll have to die."
He pointed a finger at Huo Feng's heart. Suddenly, a violent Origin Force erupted again. In an instant, Huo Feng felt a chill throughout his body—no pain, no sensation—but he could feel his consciousness slowly fading away. "Am I going to die? I'm not willing! Why? Why can bad people live so freely? Must I endure this existence? No, I refuse! I want to grow stronger; I want to crush everything. But am I really going to die...?"
"Don't!" Seeing Huo Feng's chest pierced by the man's finger and his body flying into the lake, Ruo Xi felt immense sorrow. She remembered how she had just arrived in this realm and met Huo Feng; she had followed him all this way. Suddenly losing him made her feel as if she had lost her support, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
"Uncle, is that bastard dead?" Yun asked tentatively.
"His heart has been pierced; it's impossible for him not to die. Come with me," the man replied.
He brought Yun before Ruo Xi and said, "Come back to Martial Hall with me; don't linger here any longer. That man is already dead."
Ruo Xi remained silent, staring quietly at the surface of the lake.
"Yes, come back with me. I promise you'll live in wealth and honor; I'll take good care of you," Yun's uncle Shibang added as he brought Ruo Xi along.
The man shot a fierce glare at Yun and angrily said, "Yun, you can play however you want, but if you lay a finger on her, I'll cripple you."
Yun trembled in fear; this uncle was never polite to anyone—even his father, the Hall Master, had to give him some respect. He quickly replied, "Yes, yes!" while thinking in his heart, "Hmph! You old fool who never touches women and calls himself a martial fanatic is now trying to steal my woman."
But Yun could only think such thoughts in his heart; on the surface, he still had to maintain a smile.
Seeing Ruo Xi standing there in a daze, without any movement, the man spoke again: "It seems you care about him a lot. Then you must take revenge for him. Come back with me and train well; only then can you kill me to avenge him."
Upon hearing this, Ruo Xi suddenly became alert. "Right, I need to avenge him. This person clearly has a martial arts obsession and admires Huo Feng. He must also see my talent. If I train well by his side, I can monitor him and understand his habits, which will increase my chances of success."
Ruo Xi looked up coldly at the man and said, "Fine, I agree. But you must ensure that this scum does not appear before me; otherwise, I cannot guarantee that I won't kill him."
"Alright, as long as you agree, I will do my best to meet your demands. My name is Xiang; you can call me whatever you like. Since that's settled, let's head back to Martial Hall." The middle-aged man named Xiang took the lead, and Ruo Xi followed closely behind.
Hearing their conversation, Yun dared not follow them and had to take a detour back alone.
...
"Big Brother, you saw the girl we just brought back, right? She has great talent. At just thirteen years old, she is already at Network Realm Level Nine and shows signs of about to break through to Earth Vein Realm. If we control her well, the entire Azure Wave Kingdom will be ours."
"Yes! That girl is indeed impressive. However, I have no confidence in that drug. I hired dozens of Alchemists from other countries to create it at a great cost, but I don't know how effective it will be. Let's use her as a test subject."
In the dimly lit secret chamber, two men were engaged in a shocking conspiracy; one was Xiang, who killed Huo Feng, and the other was the Martial Hall Master.
