Zhang Chongxian's Grand Bearing! His Might Pressed Down on the Cloud Mountain Sword Sect!

Meanwhile, at the core of the Cloud Mountain Sword Sect's Spirit Vein.

A handsome young man clad in a purple brocade robe embroidered with wandering dragons abruptly opened his eyes!

If not for the lack of any swell upon his chest, no one would object to calling him a woman.

"Damn it! Why has that madman Zhang Chongxian come here?!"

"Martial Uncle is still in seclusion. I can only handle this myself!"

"Unbelievable!"

With a sigh, his figure vanished from the Cave Mansion.

The next moment, he appeared before Zhang Chongxian with a genial smile on his face.

"Fellow Daoist Zhang, your arrival brings glory to our humble Cloud Mountain Sword Sect. May I ask what brings you here from so far away?"

Zhang Chongxian looked at the handsome young man before him, chuckled, and said mockingly, "Lin Feng, decades have passed, yet you are still as sanctimonious and flirtatious as ever. Don't put on that hypocritical act before me. I know exactly what kind of person you are, so stop fucking pretending!"

The two were of similar age, and both possessed Dual Spirit Roots. Back then, they had been among the most outstanding geniuses.

When they were young, the two had clashed more than once.

Yet Zhang Chongxian had always held Lin Feng down by a head, even nearly driving him to develop an Inner Demon.

Thus, Lin Feng had repeatedly plotted to kill Zhang Chongxian, but every attempt had ended in failure.

Now, Zhang Chongxian had reached the Peak Golden Core Mid Stage, while Lin Feng remained stuck at the Early Golden Core, unable to advance an inch.

This was also why Lin Feng did not wish to face Zhang Chongxian.

"You!"

Hearing Zhang Chongxian's insults, Lin Feng's face turned ashen. Yet when he saw the amused look in the other man's eyes, he forcibly suppressed the fury in his heart.

He did his best to remain calm.

He said coldly, "Speak. What business do you have at my Cloud Mountain Sword Sect?"

Zhang Chongxian ignored him and instead asked, "Where is Old Ghost Cang Ming? Tell him to come out!"

"Just state your business. I can make the decision!"

"Is that so? Fine. A disciple of your Cloud Mountain Sword Sect ran to my Zhang Family's territory and insulted my Zhang Family. For this matter, compensate me with one Golden Core Pill!"

Lin Feng was stunned upon hearing this.

A Cloud Mountain Sword Sect disciple had gone to Zhang Family territory?

And even insulted the Zhang Family?

How was that possible?!

Not even an idiot would make such a mistake!

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Disciples of my Cloud Mountain Sword Sect could never do such a thing! Zhang Chongxian, do you take my Cloud Mountain Sword Sect for easy prey?!"

Lin Feng's voice was resolute. He simply did not believe anyone could be foolish to such an extent.

Heh heh!

"Since you don't believe me, I'll show you the evidence!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Chongxian took out a Sound-retaining Stone, and a voice instantly rang out from within.

"The Zhang Family? Hahaha! The Zhang Family is less than a fart before my Cloud Mountain Sword Sect! They merely have one Golden Core Ancestor overseeing them, while my Cloud Mountain Sword Sect has two Golden Core Ancestors! How would they dare act recklessly? If they dare stick their noses into our business, even if Zhang Family members come, this young master will kill them all the same!"

Under Zhang Chongxian's spiritual power, the voice's volume was magnified countless times.

They were only a few hundred meters above the ground. As cultivators, those below could naturally hear it.

"Isn't that Jiang Tiangou's voice?"

"Senior Brother Jiang and Junior Sister Liu went to that Xiao Clan this morning to break off an engagement. How did he end up cursing the Zhang Family?"

"I heard the Xiao Clan is an Affiliated Family of the Zhang Family."

"Oh~ So that's how it is!"

Hearing the discussions of the disciples below, Lin Feng's expression darkened to a terrifying degree. Originally, he had not wanted to admit it and had planned to muddle through the matter.

But now, it was too late for everything.

He had no choice but to spend money to avert disaster.

As for killing Zhang Chongxian, he had never even considered it. Even if he joined forces with Martial Uncle Cang Ming, they still could not possibly kill him.

He stretched out his right hand, and pale blue spiritual energy condensed in his palm. A deep-water vortex formed in the air.

In an instant, it sucked over the young cultivator who had been talking the most enthusiastically on the ground.

Grabbing him by the collar, Lin Feng said coldly, "Tell me everything you know!"

How could that Qi Refinement cultivator have ever seen such a scene? He hastily said, "Reporting to Ancestor, this morning, Senior Brother Jiang Tiangou and Junior Sister Liu Ruyan brought several senior and junior brothers to the Wutan Mountain Xiao Family in the Penglai Islands to break off an engagement. They have yet to return. The other disciples know nothing more."

"Jiang Tiangou? Jiang Erhe's son? Tell him to get the hell out here and see me!"

After saying that, he tossed the Qi Refinement cultivator toward the mountain peak where Jiang Erhe was located.

At that moment, Jiang Erhe stared at the two shattered Soul Tablets in his hand, his eyes hollow and devoid of light.

A chilling killing intent radiated from his entire body.

He had gained a son in his old age. Jiang Tiangou was his only son, and he had always doted on him, granting him anything he asked for.

But now, he was dead.

Even Liu Ruyan, the wife he had chosen for his son, was dead as well.

"Rest assured. Your father will definitely avenge you!"

He secretly swore in his heart that he would make the murderer who had killed his son pay the price they deserved!

Just then, a trembling voice sounded outside the Cave Mansion. "E-Elder Jiang, Ancestor..."

"This Elder already knows. You may leave."

After saying that, Jiang Erhe concealed his killing intent and flew toward Lin Feng and Zhang Chongxian.

No matter what, he had to first get through the immediate crisis.

Arriving before the two Golden Core powerhouses, Jiang Erhe respectfully bowed. "Greetings, Ancestor Lin. Greetings, Senior Zhang."

Lin Feng nodded at him, then noticed that Jiang Erhe seemed to have aged several decades. He immediately realized something.

"Zhang Chongxian! Where are the disciples of my sect?"

Zhang Chongxian shrugged, utterly unconcerned. "Naturally, I killed them."

His tone was exceedingly calm, as though he were speaking of something utterly insignificant.

Seeing this, Lin Feng was enraged. He squeezed out gloomy words through clenched teeth. "Zhang Chongxian! You have gone too far!"

"Gone too far? What a huge joke! Your Cloud Mountain Sword Sect disciples openly went to the Xiao Clan to break off an engagement. When they were refused, they wanted to wipe out the Xiao Clan by force! They even insulted my Zhang Family and declared they would kill my Zhang Family's descendants. Wasn't that rubbing my Zhang Family's face beneath their feet? Laozi isn't dead yet! If you don't hand over one Golden Core Pill today, this matter isn't over!"

Clang!

A phantom of a golden sword a hundred meters long abruptly appeared above Lin Feng's head!

At the same time, the power of the Peak Golden Core Mid Stage erupted!

Overwhelming sword intent swept through the surroundings!

Jiang Erhe, at the Foundation Establishment Late Stage, immediately fell to his knees in midair, his body unable to move.

Zhang Chongxian possessed a Gold-Water Dual Spirit Root and cultivated Gold Attribute techniques. His killing power was unmatched among those of the same realm!

Faced with Zhang Chongxian's sudden attack, Lin Feng hurriedly responded and cast out a light screen to protect Jiang Erhe.

If this had happened within the Cloud Mountain Sword Sect, those cultivators who had insulted others would have faced certain death as well.

Pressed by Zhang Chongxian's strength, Lin Feng helplessly glanced at Jiang Erhe. If there was blame to place, blame yourself for failing to raise your son properly. Ancestor could not help you.

With a sigh, he said, "This matter was indeed the fault of my sect's disciples, but you have already killed them. Let this matter end here."

"One Golden Core Pill!"

"Impossible! Your Zhang Family's face is not that precious!"

Seeing Lin Feng's resolute attitude, Zhang Chongxian was not surprised.

From beginning to end, he had never expected to extort a Golden Core Pill. The reason he had acted this way was naturally to carry out his later plan.

"Fine, I'll give you, Lin Feng, some face! Then five Foundation Establishment Pills."

Lin Feng slowly raised one finger, his attitude unwavering.

"You killed disciples of my sect, and you still dare open your mouth like a lion! One Foundation Establishment Pill! Otherwise, we fight!"
