Xie Feng sneered, "If you have no power, then find me someone with power. If I leave empty-handed today, your Demon-Burying Clan will be turned upside down!"
Ming Dao's expression changed.
He couldn't disbelieve Xie Feng's words!
For some reason, he felt that Xie Feng was somewhat different now than he was a month ago.
The aura is even stronger now!
Moreover, there was a mysterious and powerful man in white behind him. Ming Dao knew he couldn't defeat Kong Qiusu no matter what, so he had no choice but to call for reinforcements!
Ming Dao said, "I will take you to see the Burial King!"
Xie Feng nodded. "Lead the way."
Kong Qiusu spoke up, "We must be wary of the Demon-Burying Clan. Junior Brother, you go with this person to see the Burial King first. Gu Yu and I will hide elsewhere and observe first."
Xie Feng agreed.
Unlike Ming Dao, Yuan Ling is definitely a seasoned veteran, and may have even studied Peak of Heaven. If he discovers Kong Qiusu's true identity and spreads it, it won't be a good thing for Kong Qiusu.
Before leaving, Gu Yu gave a fierce warning. "If you dare say there are three of us, I'll stab your head off with my sword!"
Ming Dao curled his lip. "So meddlesome!"
Gu Yu made a move as if to attack, Ming Dao quickly slipped ahead, saying, "Young Master Xie Feng, right? I'll lead the way! Let's go!"
It's not that he can't beat Gu Yu, it's that he can't beat the two people next to Gu Yu!
Xie Feng didn't care about Gu Yu's behavior of using the tiger's power to bully others.
Because there are some things he can't do himself, it's most appropriate to let Gu Yu do them for him.
Besides, I've already taken on a disciple, might as well use him!
In the vast, deep mountains, the greenery is refreshingly cool, and a babbling brook flows downstream, rushing towards the boundless distance.
A man in gray stood on the bank with his hands behind his back, his eyes lowered, staring intently at the goldfish swimming freely in the stream.
The fish are colorful, and their shadows are reflected on the clear stream bottom like a shimmering rainbow.
The man is none other than the Burial King Yuan Ling!
Every day he would come to the stream to feed the fish, immerse himself in the deep mountains and valleys, cultivate tranquility, and cleanse his mind.
At this moment, Ming Dao arrived with Xie Feng. He clasped his hands and said, "Your subordinate pays respects to the Burial King!"
"You've fused your physical body so quickly? You came here...?"
Yuan Ling turned around, but his words were cut short before he could finish speaking.
He saw Xie Feng!
"And who are you?" Yuan Ling's eyes were deep and unfathomable.
"My name is Xie Feng, sir. We've met before, and we even made a promise to meet again. Have you forgotten?"
Xie Feng smiled, revealing his teeth; his smile was genuine and kind.
Yuan Ling was far from relaxed. His eyes narrowed, and he said coldly, "You came to see me alone. Aren't you afraid something might happen?"
Xie Feng smiled, "How can you be sure I'm a person?"
Yuan Ling glanced around but found nothing unusual. He then turned his gaze and asked, " Ming Dao, what's going on?"
Ming Dao glanced at Xie Feng and lied, "He was waiting outside the clan gate to see you, so I... I brought him here."
In the end, he didn't have the courage to say that Xie Feng had three people!
He knew that Kong Qiusu was nearby, and if he said the wrong thing, he would die!
Yuan Ling frowned, seemingly dissatisfied with the answer.
Xie Feng looked around. "I told you back then to bring more people with you, Burial King, but it seems you didn't take my words to heart."
The Burial King scoffed, "We're even!"
Xie Feng smiled brightly.
"No, no, no, we're different. I didn't come alone. As for how many people I brought, and how strong they are, you'll find out when you try, Burial King!"
Yuan Ling scoffed sarcastically, "Commendable courage!"
Xie Feng's face now screamed "Come and attack me!" This behavior made it difficult for the cautious man to judge how credible Xie Feng's words were!
Xie Feng sighed softly, "I've already said that so many times my tongue hurts, don't make me repeat myself, just give me my land!"
"Why should I give you land if you didn't give me an energy source?" Ming Dao indignantly from the side.
"That's not right, is it?"
Xie Feng turned his head, stared at the former, and frowned.
"My initial plan was to give you the energy source after we left Peak of Heaven, since you weren't short of time. Who knew you'd be so impatient, trying to steal the energy source in broad daylight? Not only did you erode our trust, but you also tried to kill me for the treasure. Tsk tsk, even now, thinking back on those actions still chills me to the bone!"
He clutched his chest, looking utterly heartbroken.
Ming Dao pointed at his nose angrily. "You impersonated Lu Xun and deceived me! Otherwise, how could I not believe you?"
"That's not important. What's important is that you owe me a piece of land! Give it to me now! Immediately!"
Xie Feng stared intently at the two men, Ming Dao and his companion!
Yuan Ling said, "Young Master Xie, I think you're being a bit unreasonable. We didn't get the energy source, and you didn't get the promise, so we're even!"
Xie Feng gazed at the beautiful scenery around him and laughed, "I won't leave unless you give me land."
Yuan Ling was not intimidated. Instead, he smiled and said, "My Demon-Burying Clan has beautiful mountains and clear waters. Young Master Xie can stay a few more days and enjoy the scenery!"
"I am a diligent person and I love cultivation, especially in the midst of mountains and rivers. I have just learned a palm technique, but I am not very proficient at it. Would the Burial King mind if I reviewed the palm technique with him?"
Xie Feng smiled mysteriously and struck the stream with his palm. In an instant, waves surged into the sky, and rolling energy rose out of thin air. Wherever the energy spread, everything evaporated, and billowing steam rose!
The next second!
The stream water evaporated, leaving only a dried-up riverbed!
Even Yuan Ling's beloved fish evaporated!
Yuan Ling nearly fainted. His facial muscles twitched, and he glared at Xie Feng, coldly saying, "Are you provoking me?"
Xie Feng blinked. "I was just cultivating. Since the Burial King invited me to stay in the Demon-Burying Clan, I'm a guest. I can't stop a guest from cultivating, can I? Oh dear, my hands are itching again. That mountain range in the distance... if it exploded, it would be quite a spectacle..."
Ming Dao immediately panicked. "That's our capital!"
Yuan Ling said, "Don't go too far!"
"If they won't give me any land, I'll just have to take it myself... I'll just use that one!"
Xie Feng pointed to a majestic city on a distant mountain range, which was none other than the imperial capital of the Demon-Burying Clan!
Yuan Ling finally lost his temper, raised his hand, and a surge of killing intent ignited within him!
At this moment!
A devastating pressure suddenly descended!
Covering a million miles!
Yuan Ling's pupils twitched, and he felt his blood boiling, as if it were about to burst through his skin and spray out!
That kind of fear that comes from the bloodline!
"How could this be? Who is secretly releasing this pressure?! And... why does this power make me so uneasy?!"
Yuan Ling looked around, his emotions surging wildly!
He couldn't see anyone!
But he could clearly sense that power crushing him!
Is this the powerful figure behind Xie Feng?
Yuan Ling's expression changed rapidly!
