Chapter 1433: Temporary Ceasefire

Act according to one’s means, act according to one’s means… Everyone who heard Lin Qing, the Elder of the Lin Family, understood what he meant by these words, but in the current environment, these words and threats seemed to give them an illusion.

That is, Lin Qing also seems unqualified to say such things!

“Although I’m alone now without any great background, it doesn’t mean I’ll be scared by your ‘act according to your means’ and behave obediently, right? You tell me to act according to my means and not be impulsive for a moment’s pleasure. Otherwise, why don’t you replace me to take action, if you win, I’ll leave obediently, even my life could be yours. If you lose, what cost can you bear?”

Chen Fei looked playfully at Lin Qing, the Elder of the Lin Family, and pointed to the severely injured Dong Tianqing beside him, saying lightly: “Or do you want to end up like him?!”

Instantly, everyone who heard was at a standstill. Dong Tianqing’s face turned pale, and his eyes went cold. Given his identity and level, being humiliated as a ‘bad example’ under everyone’s gaze, how could he not be angry?

Lin Qing, the Elder of the Lin Family, also had a cold gaze, but his strength wasn’t actually as formidable as his words suggested. Strictly speaking, he was just an ordinary cultivator of the Ancient King level, and his entry into this realm was purely coincidental, so his strength was at most seventy percent of Dong Tianqing’s. Now, seeing Dong Tianqing repeatedly being severely injured by Chen Fei, does he dare to act? He doesn’t have the courage.

Therefore, despite the loss of face, Lin Qing, the Elder of the Lin Family, remained silent, making the most correct decision.

At the same time, he also regretted a bit why he stood out to provoke Chen Fei after enduring so long. Is it because Chen Fei looks young and made him jealous? Or something else?

In short, looking back now, his previous actions were indeed a bit unwise.

“No wonder some old folks become cunning, they can really endure. They’ve given up on their face.”

Seeing this scene, people sighed deeply, witnessing Chen Fei’s formidable strength and character. They understood clearly that if Lin Qing, the Elder of the Lin Family, continued, his outcome wouldn’t be favorable.

The Dong Family, ranking among the top four of the Ten Great Families, had at least five Ancient King-level entities within the clan and could repeatedly act domineeringly with intent to kill Chen Fei.

But the Lin Family is different, ranking ninth among the Ten Great Families, even below the Jun Family of Long Scorpion Island.

With such rankings and family heritage, provoking an enemy like the madman Chen Fei would have dire consequences.

Chen Fei faintly smiled sarcastically at this scene, but said nothing more, instead looking coldly at Hou Qianshan, who blocked his path, and said with narrowed eyes, “You’re still going to…”

However, he hadn’t finished his sentence when suddenly a strong and fierce gust of wind blew from the horizon.

Soon, several figures flew swiftly towards them, their aura formidable, causing Chen Fei to slightly change his expression.

Because those people were none other than Elder Quann and Yan Jingjing of the Sun Moon Divine Sect, with whom he had had a dispute and standoff outside the micro space earlier.

“Look, their attire, could it be?”

“It must be them. They’re people from the Sun Moon Divine Sect!”

“Sun Moon Divine Sect?”

…

The crowd seeing the approaching figures was also in uproar, their faces changing drastically.

If the Demon Clan of the Demon Territory Mountain is the uncrowned king of the Demon Territory Mountain, then the Sun Moon Divine Sect is equally a ‘giant beast-level’ force, and witnessing it firsthand is indisputably shocking and panicking.

At the same time, some people subconsciously looked at Chen Fei with flickering gazes because if they remembered correctly, Dong Tianqing had said before that Chen Fei had offended people from the Sun Moon Divine Sect?

“Is it him?” At this moment, Elder Quann and other powerhouses of the Sun Moon Divine Sect in the sky immediately had a chill in their eyes, staring down at the square, for they had already discovered Chen Fei’s presence at this moment.

And by now, the day period Chen Fei had mentioned for antidote was long past.

Meanwhile, Chen Fei also frowned, looking up at the people from the Sun Moon Divine Sect, feeling a bit unlucky. If he had encountered these guys alone, it wouldn’t be much of an issue, but now with people watching intently, if they really start fighting, many of his secrets would be exposed, and the Dong Family is also present.

“It’s that dog!” In the sky, the silver-eyed Yan Jingjing gritted his teeth, glaring at Chen Fei.

However, there was a noticeable fear in his gritted demeanor, evidently, his previous encounter had truly scared this ‘greenhouse flower’.

He didn’t fear strong individuals because he had a background, what difference would it make even if they were stronger? Could they ignore his background as a descendant of the powerhouse of the Saint Realm?

But Chen Fei is not only strong, he’s also a madman who disregarded his background, and that’s what he fears most.

Because he understands that if given the chance, Chen Fei might really dare to kill him.

“Elder Quann, what should we do now? Should we…” A powerhouse of the Ancient King level from the Sun Moon Divine Sect coldly stared at Chen Fei and asked Elder Quann softly.

Elder Quann tightly frowned, saying nothing.

Kill? He’s afraid he can’t, and the consequences would be endless.

Don’t kill? This person makes him feel like there’s a thorn in his throat, very disgusting, very uncomfortable.

“Cough, cough, cough… You all must be friends of the Sun Moon Divine Sect, right? Cough… I am Dong Tianqing, Supreme Elder of the Demon Territory Mountain. I heard you have dealings with this little beast, coincidentally, so do we, therefore, how about, cough, cough…”

Suddenly, the continuous coughing of Dong Tianqing echoed ominously, drawing everyone’s attention to him instinctively. Dong Tianqing, looking weak and clutching his wound, gazed viciously and menacingly at the powerhouses of the Sun Moon Divine Sect.

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Fei narrowed his eyes slightly.

Quann Xiang and other Sun Moon Divine Sect powerhouses also stirred and looked at Dong Tianqing, but then Quann Xiang frowned and said coldly, “Where did you get those injuries?”

“I was caught off guard and ambushed by this little beast…” Dong Tianqing said through gritted teeth.

However, before he could finish his sentence, an Ancient King Level entity within the Sun Moon Divine Sect team coldly interrupted him, mocking, “You want to use us to benefit yourself and reap the spoils?”

Dong Tianqing’s expression changed immediately, and he said, “No, cough, cough, that’s not what I meant, you misunderstood…”

“Misunderstanding, my ass!” The Ancient King Level expert from the Sun Moon Divine Sect barked impatiently, “Given your injuries, you’re of no use, and you want to join us? Putting aside whether you’re qualified, do you think you’re foolish, or are all of us foolish?”

Dong Tianqing’s face reddened with embarrassment at the group’s derision. If anyone else dared to question him like this, he would have exploded in anger by now, but the other’s background and identity were more formidable than his, and their strength matched his own, forcing him to hold back.

“Enough.”

At that moment, Elder Quann coldly silenced the Ancient King Level expert behind him, ignoring Dong Tianqing, whose face was flushed with anger, and directed his gaze at Chen Fei, saying coldly, “Daring to appear in front of us, I must say, you indeed have great courage.”

“What, you want to fight?” Chen Fei also coldly gazed at them, ready to fight at any moment.

“Hmph!” Yet, Quann Xiang merely glared at Chen Fei with a cold sneer, shifted his gaze away, and turned to leave, saying, “They say one’s bold twice, but not thrice. When we meet again, I’ll make sure you understand the might of our Sun Moon Divine Sect. If you can still live to boast then, it’ll be uncertain.”

“Let’s go!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Quann Xiang led the Sun Moon Divine Sect members away, heading toward the golden gate at the end of the plaza.

Clearly, he ultimately chose to retreat, opting not to fight.

The primary reason being, their most crucial goal now was the relic of the powerhouse of the Saint Realm, the Divine Emperor of the Four Elephants, which they must obtain.

Secondly, for some reason, there was already a small shadow lingering in his heart concerning Chen Fei, perhaps one he hadn’t even realized. He wasn’t confident in defeating Chen Fei, nor did he want Chen Fei to act against Yan Jingjing, so it was better to wait for Junior Brother Jing Zhe to arrive.

Once Junior Brother Jing Zhe arrived, no matter how crazy or formidable this little beast was, wouldn’t he be like a turtle in a jar, unable to escape?

The terrifying eleventh-ranked prodigy on the Spirit Saint Ranking of our Spirit Essence Holy Domain, is a force that these uncultured folks from the Demon Territory Mountain cannot comprehend or experience.

It’s just fitting that this time they get a taste of it!

As they left, Quann Xiang coldly glanced down at Chen Fei’s back from a commanding position, murmuring, “Once Junior Brother Jing Zhe arrives, it’ll be your date with fate. Just wait.”

Upon hearing his words, Yan Jingjing and other Sun Moon Divine Sect powerhouses flashed their eyes coldly, casting cruel and dangerous glances toward Chen Fei.

Clearly, they had absolute confidence in the strength of their so-called ‘Junior Brother Jing Zhe’!

Noticing the gaze from the Sun Moon Divine Sect members, Chen Fei smirked coldly on the surface, but inwardly became vigilant and wary. He wasn’t foolish, discerning a message from their words… would it be time to fight during their next encounter?

Heh, then let’s see.

“Hmm?” The next moment, Chen Fei’s expression subtly changed again, because during the slight lapse in attention, Dong Tianqing and the Dong Family had taken the opportunity to slip away, which he now noticed.

“They slipped away fast.” Shaking his head with a smile, Chen Fei’s eyes flickered as he turned and left in the direction opposite to the golden gate.

Seeing this, many were slightly taken aback.

“He’s… leaving like that?”

“Is it that strange? He’s not only offended the Dong Family but also the Sun Moon Divine Sect! Although they say they’re not teaming up now, can you guarantee that for the future? If you ask me, that’s how a smart person preserves their life.”

…

The people debated.

“Left? Hmph!” In the distance, Elder of Lin Family, Lin Qing, noticed Chen Fei’s actions, sneering as he felt a slight release from the resentment he felt earlier.

“Ignorant beast, when my Dong Family people arrive and Tu Mo’s Treasure Cover comes into my possession, I’ll definitely eliminate you!”

Dong Tianqing, with a sombre face, glared venomously at Chen Fei’s back, muttering.

Tu Mo’s Treasure Cover was a supreme spiritual weapon and the Dong Family’s Clan-Suppressing Treasure, which could unleash 120% of its power in his hands. He did not believe he wouldn’t be able to kill Chen Fei then.
