At this moment, Qiu Wanfeng looked at the thatched hut in front of him with a mocking expression, his eyes flashing with a cold light.
His Lingyun Sect, as the largest sect on the outer edge of the Starry Mountain Range, did not dare to use the word "immortal" in its name.
This mere sect that used a thatched hut as its residence dared to commit such a great act of disrespect. It was truly courting death!
However, at this moment, Qiu Wanfeng suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. He felt as if a pair of incredibly terrifying eyes were staring at him, and he even had a feeling that he had one foot in hell.
Boom!
Immediately afterward, to Qiu Wanfeng's horrified gaze, a palm print shot out from the thatched hut, striking him with terrifying speed before he could even react!
Bang!
A terrifying force struck, and Qiu Wanfeng was instantly sent flying backward, crashing into the ground in the distance. The ground shattered into pieces, with debris flying everywhere, and a large, human-shaped crater appeared.
"Cough cough!"
Qiu Wanfeng coughed up blood and scrambled out of the pit, his face filled with horror. He looked up and saw three figures slowly stepping out of the thatched hut!
Leading the group was a young gentleman dressed in fine clothes. To his left was a stunningly beautiful woman with captivating charm, and to his right was a burly man with black lines across his face, making him appear extremely ferocious.
These three people were Wang Feng, Yao Yue, and the Great Demon Xuan Sha.
Wang Feng looked at the disheveled and badly injured Qiu Wanfeng, shook his head, and sighed softly. This was the first time he had ever seen someone as reckless as Qiu Wanfeng.
He and Yao Yue had just entered the thatched hut when they heard Qiu Wanfeng's extremely sarcastic words. Before Wang Feng could get angry, Yao Yue, who was beside him, had already struck out with her palm, which led to the scene they were in now.
Wang Feng didn't blame Yao Yue. Someone as foul-mouthed as Qiu Wanfeng deserved to be beaten however he wanted, and even killing him would be justified.
In fact, even if Yao Yue hadn't made a move, Wang Feng would have done it himself. He couldn't tolerate anyone daring to insult the Divine Immortal Sect he had founded.
The Great Demon Xuan Sha beside Wang Feng also had murderous intent in his eyes as he coldly stared at Qiu Wanfeng. Even if Yao Yue hadn't made a move earlier, he definitely would have.
Although he had only temporarily joined the Divine Immortal Sect for a year, as long as the Great Demon Xuan Sha was there, no one could insult the sect!
Moreover, the longer he stayed with the Divine Immortal Sect and the more secrets he came into contact with, the more the Great Demon Xuan Sha began to have the idea of staying in the sect indefinitely.
Even now, Great Demon Xuan Sha is still unaware of the true strength of the Divine Immortal Sect. Is a reclusive sect like the Divine Immortal Sect worth joining?
"Who are you? Why are you attacking this one?"
Despite the pain in his body and the trembling in his heart, Qiu Wanfeng stared intently at Wang Feng and the others, questioning them.
Despite being severely injured by Yao Yue's palm strike, Qiu Wanfeng did not sense the cultivation aura contained in that strike. Therefore, he assumed that he was caught off guard and thus allowed Wang Feng and the others to launch a sneak attack.
Qiu Wanfeng was naturally furious. He, the Grand Elder of Lingyun Sect, had been ambushed and seriously injured. If word got out, what would become of his reputation? Moreover, he was the Grand Elder of Lingyun Sect.
How dare these people ambush him? Did they think Lingyun Sect was made of clay?
Of course, although Qiu Wanfeng believed that he had been ambushed by Wang Feng and the others, the fact that they could seriously injure him with a single palm strike meant that they were no ordinary people.
Therefore, although Qiu Wanfeng was questioning them, his tone was somewhat weak.
If it weren't for the support of the Lingyun Sect, he would have accepted the attack even if he was ambushed. After all, he was seriously injured and the other side had the upper hand.
As the saying goes, a wise man doesn't fight a losing battle. He could take revenge later.
But he was the Grand Elder of the Lingyun Sect, and the Lingyun Sect was a major sect on the outskirts of the Starry Mountain Range, which gave Qiu Wanfeng some confidence. He believed that once he mentioned the name of the Lingyun Sect, these people would definitely not dare to be his enemy.
The outer perimeter of the Starry Mountain Range is the territory of his Lingyun Sect. When the Lingyun Sect says one thing, no one dares to say another!
"This one? A mere cultivator at the Entry Phase Realm dares to call himself this one? Hmph, I never imagined that in this era, there would be someone even more arrogant than I was back then!"
Upon hearing Qiu Wanfeng's words, Great Demon Xuan Sha standing next to Wang Feng, said with a sarcastic expression.
Wang Feng waved his hand, and the Great Demon Xuan Sha immediately stopped his mockery, straightened his expression, and stood respectfully beside Wang Feng.
Wang Feng narrowed his eyes, looked down at Qiu Wanfeng, and said in a deep voice, "What is your name? Why have you insulted my Divine Immortal Sect?"
"Divine Immortal Sect? You're from this tiny sect in the backyard?"
Upon hearing Wang Feng's words, Qiu Wanfeng's expression froze, and he subconsciously spoke up. He hadn't expected that the person who could sneak up on him and seriously injure him with a single palm strike was actually someone from a minor sect that he had previously looked down upon.
How is that possible? How could such a powerful expert be located in a small sect that uses a thatched hut as its headquarters? The one who could sneak up on him and seriously injure him must be at least a Peak-stage Entry Phase Realm expert, or even possibly a Nobility Realm expert.
"Beat him until he tells you!"
Wang Feng narrowed his eyes, waved his hand, and indicated that even at this point, this person was still being sarcastic and deserved to be taught a lesson!
"Yes, Sect Master! Hmph, how dare you insult my Divine Immortal Sect in front of the Sect Master! You have no sense of mortality!"
Upon hearing Wang Feng's words, Great Demon Xuan Sha's face turned cold. He then looked at Qiu Wanfeng and grinned maliciously. He clenched his fist and strode towards Qiu Wanfeng!
"What are you trying to do? How dare you! I am the Grand Elder of the Lingyun Sect! If you dare to touch me, the Lingyun Sect will make you wish you were dead!"
However, the Great Demon Xuan Sha completely ignored Qiu Wanfeng's rebuke. Standing over two meters tall, he carried the heavily injured Qiu Wanfeng like a chick and dragged him more than ten meters away.
"What Lingyun Sect? Never even heard of it. A mere minor sect dares to mock my Divine Immortal Sect. They deserve to die!"
As Qiu Wanfeng frantically circulated his internal power when Xuan Sha Da Mo's broad hand reached out, he tried to break free from Great Demon Xuan Sha's hand.
However, in just a moment, his expression changed drastically, because he felt that the power he had unleashed was like mud sinking into the ocean after touching Great Demon Xuan Sha's hand, without causing the slightest ripple.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
In no time, a series of booming sounds, like fists striking flesh, echoed through the valley, along with faint wails.
"Stop...stop hitting me, I...I'll talk!"
Upon hearing this voice, which was so low it was almost inaudible, Wang Feng waved his hand, signaling Great Demon Xuan Sha to stop.
Upon seeing this, the Great Demon Xuan Sha dragged Qiu Wanfeng back to Wang Feng, leaving a trail of blood on the ground.
Looking at Qiu Wanfeng, whose face resembled a pig's head, Wang Feng could hardly bear to look at him. He sighed softly, "If only you had known this would happen, you should have just answered my question obediently. Why did you have to suffer like this? You're such a spineless coward!"
Did you even give me a chance to speak?
I just instinctively retorted and got beaten up like this. What did I even say?
Upon hearing Wang Feng's words, Qiu Wanfeng roared with fury in his heart, but that was all he could do. With his face swollen like a pig's head, he was too weak to speak.
"The Sect Master told you to speak, so speak now!"
Seeing that Qiu Wanfeng was still dawdling, Great Demon Xuan Sha glared at him and slapped him on the head. It was this slap that gave Qiu Wanfeng a chance to catch his breath.
Great Demon Xuan Sha's slap was no joke; he also channeled a surge of pure energy to slightly heal Qiu Wanfeng's body. Otherwise, given Qiu Wanfeng's condition, he wouldn't have been able to speak.
"My name is Qiu Wanfeng, and I am the Grand Elder of Lingyun Sect, the largest sect on the outskirts of Starry Mountain Range. I have come here to investigate the Profound General Realm aura that appeared in this valley earlier!"
"Hmm? What's the purpose of probing that Profound General Realm aura?" Upon hearing Qiu Wanfeng's words, Wang Feng narrowed his eyes and asked. Isn't this Profound General Realm aura the same as Ling Feiwu's previous breakthrough?
Wang Feng hadn't expected that what he thought was just a mindless act by a foul-mouthed person would actually concern Ling Feiwu, a disciple of the Divine Immortal Sect. This naturally made him even more concerned.
"With the Demon Sealing Tournament approaching, my Lingyun Sect does not have a single disciple at the Profound General Realm, making it impossible to compete for a ranking on the Demon Sealing Ranking. Therefore, we can only search for talented disciples outside and bring them back to the sect!" Faced with Wang Feng's question, Qiu Wanfeng dared not hide anything and frankly said.
He was truly terrified by the Great Demon Xuan Sha. Each punch not only struck his physical body but also seemed to hammer his soul, causing him immense torment.
"The Demon Sealing Tournament? The Demon Sealing Ranking? What are these?" Upon hearing this, Wang Feng asked with a surprised expression.
"You don't know?" Qiu Wanfeng was stunned when he heard Wang Feng's questioning voice, but after thinking about it for a moment, he understood. It was not surprising that such an arrogant and rude little sect did not know about the Demon Sealing Conference.
"Speak!" The Great Demon Xuan Sha, glared and shouted.
The shout of the Great Demon Xuan Sha made Qiu Wanfeng tremble. He hurriedly said, "The Demon Sealing Tournament is initiated by the royal family of the Shining Sun Empire and is open to all sects within the entire empire. It can be called a grand event held once every ten years!"
"The Demon Sealing Tournament is held to suppress and seal the Great Demon Xuan Sha, who ravaged the entire Shining Sun Empire a thousand years ago! Because that demon is extremely terrifying, its pure demonic energy will still leak out even when it is sealed, causing the place where the Great Demon Xuan Sha is sealed to be tainted by the leaked demonic energy!"
"The Demon Sealing Tournament is an event organized by the Shining Sun Empire, in which powerful figures from all sects within the empire are tasked with killing demonic beasts corrupted by demonic energy, thereby weakening the power of the Great Demon Xuan Sha!"
"However, this time, that decree only allows younger disciples to go. Therefore, all sects are now frantically training their own disciples and searching for unsung geniuses in order to win first place in the Demon Sealing Tournament!"
Upon hearing Qiu Wanfeng's words, a glint of light flashed in Wang Feng's eyes, and he glanced meaningfully at the trembling Great Demon Xuan Sha beside him!
