As the middle-aged man’s words came out, except for the headmaster and Tang Li, an unnatural look appeared on everyone’s faces.
Everyone understood that even if the Lu Family did not have Lu Buhui, their strength was still exceedingly great—enough for them to completely suppress San Chuan School.
The reason they said all those things was simply because their pride had been wounded.
“Sigh, we’ve made a grave misjudgment. If we had fully supported Lu Buhui back then, the situation would’ve probably been vastly different now. It was easy to paint colors atop flowers, but to deliver coal in the midst of winter was an entirely different thing.” The headmaster shook his head heavily and sighed.
The others also did not speak anymore, and followed him silently.
Inside the sealed chamber, Bei Feng sat cross-legged as a black pattern appeared across his chest. The pattern was exceedingly intricate, and a terrifying energy ripple surged from it.
Inside Bei Feng’s chest aperture, his blood Qi was colliding together violently, rousing huge waves!
This surge of blood Qi was extremely powerful, far surpassing the energy levels of a newly advanced Thousand Year King. It was not inferior even to the energy levels of a Second or Third level Thousand Year King!
Additionally, his blood Qi was still constantly growing purer and more plentiful. His blood Qi was as vast as an ocean, and at this time, it was as if a whirlpool had appeared in the middle of this blood Qi ocean!
In just an instant, all the blood Qi was sucked into the whirlpool, and Bei Feng’s blood Qi disappeared with a speed visible to the naked eye.
Finally, the boundless ocean of blood Qi was gone, leaving only a single blood-red pearl at the center of the vortex.
The pearl was only about the size of a thumb, but it contained the entirety of Bei Feng’s blood Qi! Right now, this pearl was constantly changing shape, and looked very unstable.
Just the slightest bit of aura leaking from it was enough to cause Bei Feng to feel startled. Countless blood Qi energy had been compressed into this single pearl, and the blood and Qi was forcefully merged together under this kind of extreme circumstance.
Bei Feng calmed his heart, and quietly observed the changes to this pearl.
“Boom!”
As time passed, small ripples started to appear around the pearl; small explosions occurred constantly around it, forming tiny little mushroom clouds.
Before Bei Feng could react, the pearl instantly bloated into one 10 meters wide, and then shrunk down to the size of a pin, directly exploding!
As the pearl exploded, Bei Feng felt as if he was suddenly struck by a bolt of lightning. His body shook, and a line of blood appeared in the corners of his mouth. A dazzling ray of light shone from the bowl-sized black pattern on his chest!
Bei Feng could feel just how terrifying that blood Qi energy which exploded from the pearl was when compared to how it had been before!
The blood Qi gushed out of his chest, instantly covering his body!
“Crack!”
A series of crackling sounds rang out from Bei Feng’s body. A single sound was insignificant, but together, it was deafening!
The terrifying noise rang out constantly in the chamber. The high frequencies of the sounds caused even the very foundations of the chamber to shake and creak.
Bei Feng had spent great amounts of efforts to clear just one-thousandth percent of his meridians so far, but in that one instant, one percent of his meridians had been cleared!
One percent of all his veins and meridians might not sound like much, but it was actually a terrifying amount. At Bei Feng’s level, even if he used a spirit herb, it would only be enough for him to clear about 10 or so veins!
The further he advanced, the greater the price to clear just one vein!
Although only one percent of the veins had been cleared, it was enough for Bei Feng’s strength to double!
Countless dredges were expelled from the veins, and more blood Qi was formed in the newly opened veins, merging perfectly with Bei Feng’s original strength.
At this moment, Bei Feng’s utilization of his blood Qi became even smoother, and the quantity and quality of his blood Qi was tens of times greater than that of other experts at the same level!
“Is that the benefit perfectly fused blood Qi brings?” Bei Feng clenched his fists, causing loud booming sounds to ring out.
Bei Feng had not imagined that perfectly fusing his blood and Qi together would bring such a great benefit. Right now, a large amount of his veins and meridians had been cleared, and his foundations had reached an inconceivable level!
“Ji-ji!”
Before Bei Feng could dwell on the thought for long, a sense of extreme hunger surged up, causing Bei Feng’s lips to swivel up, and his eyes seemed to turn green.
This sudden sense of hunger was so intense that even Bei Feng could not resist it despite his strong will. From this, one could easily see how powerful the hunger was.
Bei Feng felt as if his innards were twisted together; without any thought, he took out a bunch of high-grade spirit stones from his spatial ring and instantly crushed them!
“Huu!”
A single high-grade spirit stone had huge amounts of Ling Qi, and Bei Feng had crushed several thousand of them in an instant! The terrifying amounts of Ling Qi instantly flowed out and filled the room, causing the Ling Qi in the air to condense to an inconceivable level!
The vast amounts Ling Qi were contained in the chamber, and directly turned into mist, even showing signs of condensing further in liquid form!
Bei Feng’s entire body was covered in a layer of white mist, and he revolved his cultivation constantly to directly absorb the huge amounts of Ling Qi!
In less than half an hour, the huge amount of Ling Qi was absorbed clean. As he was absorbing the Ling Qi, his feeling of hunger decreased greatly, but as soon as he was finished, the intense hunger once again burst out!
“I’m still hungry; this is not something that can be supplemented by Ling Qi! Meat, I need to eat meat!”
And this time, it was even more terrifying than before. The hunger pangs assaulted Bei Feng’s mind in waves, almost driving him to the point of insanity.
“Boom!”
Bei Feng stood up and directly smashed with a palm towards the door of the chamber. With a single strike, the sturdy door was directly blown apart!
Bei Feng’s body instantly disappeared, and when he appeared again at the surface, his aura of a Thousand Year King surged towards the heavens!
“What’s going on? What happened?”
“It’s Family Head!”
“Everyone, quickly go and find some food with high iron content, the higher the better! Hurry! I want to see food within 10 minutes! Also, quickly bring over the food in the manor!” Bei Feng’s voice rang out, echoing through the entire manor.
“Eh?”
“What are you standing there for? Hurry up, send my orders! Go to the restaurant nearby and bring back all the cooked food! Quickly!”
Everyone froze dumbly when they heard Bei Feng’s words, but they also recovered in an instant, rushing out in all directions like frenzied ants.
At the same time, all the food in the manor flowed to the kitchen, and the chefs got busy.
“Family Head, what happened?”
“Moo!”
“Father, what’s wrong?”
At this time, Lu Bu and the others also rushed here, and when they saw Bei Feng’s stickly and malnourished look, they were completely stunned.
“Don’t mind me, quickly go and tell them that the food needs not be prepared too beautifully, just make it fast!”
At this moment, Bei Feng could be said to be only skin and bones, without much flesh throughout his entire body. Too much blood Qi had been expended in merging the blood and Qi, and also in clearing the veins and meridians.
This was also a problem caused by Bei Feng’s lack of knowledge. If he’d known it would be like this, he would have made his preparations long ago for this.
“Moo?”
Lu Bu and the rest hurried off, leaving only Han Kui and the gangster rabbit there. At this moment, Han Kui mooed curiously as he wondered how this human suddenly looked so wretched.
Gu Qi was still feeling a little shaken when it saw Han Kui moving up to disturb Bei Feng. Without any hesitation, it sent a paw slapping towards Han Kui.
“Ji-ji!”
“Pa!”
“Moo!”
Han Kui looked back with a dumb look on its face. What was this fellow doing again, hitting it for no reason?
“Moo!”
Han Kui who had just been hit turned around angrily, but as it did so, it also felt a cold gaze turning onto its body. Turning back around, it saw a pair of green eyes looking at it, and the line of drool hanging on Bei Feng’s mouth. In that moment, it was so scared that it jumped several meters away.
“Ji-ji!”
Seeing this, Gu Qi shook its head, and proceeded to give Han Kui a good beating before dragging it out away like a dead dog.
As Bei Feng’s partner, it had already sensed the strange state Bei Feng was in long ago. That terrible sense of hunger had driven even the gangster rabbit to the point of insanity as well.
A moment ago, it had felt the almost irresistible urge in Bei Feng, and it knew that if it did not drag Han Kui away, that dumb fellow would most likely end up being gobbled up soon after.
“I’m losing control,” Bei Feng murmured as he watched the gangster rabbit dragging Han Kui away.
As Han Kui looked at that hungry look in Bei Feng’s eyes, it instantly understood everything!
At that moment, it did not dare to turn back as it hurriedly ran away. Its speed even left Gu Qi somewhat speechless.
Han Kui’s heart was currently filled with fear. This human was too scary; he normally didn’t do much, but who would have thought that he was even scarier than Gu Qi!
“Is it still not ready?!” Bei Feng roared with impatience.
“Family Head, it’s almost ready, almost ready!” a servant replied with a bitter face. In just a short minute, the family head had already asked that no less than 10 times!
Bei Feng was clearly not in a right frame of mind now, and everyone in the Lu Family was treading carefully, afraid that they would become a target he’d vent on.
“Quickly! The taste is not important, I only want speed!” Bei Feng roared with frustration. His face was sallow with hunger, and he chewed on a piece of a spirit herb to allay his hunger. But, apart from making him feel even hungrier, it did not have any other effect.
“Family Head, it’s ready! The food is ready!”
The servants’ foreheads were all filled with cold sweat. Those several short minutes had felt like years. Seeing Bei Feng’s temper worsening with every passing second, they all felt incredibly anxious as they cursed the slow chefs in the kitchen with all their might.
