Chapter 921: Looking for Trouble
“No wonder they’re imperial cultivation disciples, they don’t need to use their full power to win.” said the patriarch of the Xiao Yao Sect. The crowd enjoyed watching the battles. What level did a cultivator need to be to defeat them?
Cultivators of the fifth Tian Qi layer couldn’t defeat them, what about cultivators of the sixth Tian Qi layer?
“You won’t have this opportunity everyday, does anyone else want to challenge an imperial cultivation disciple?” The patriarch of the Xiao Yao Sect was smiling, but at that moment, everybody remained silent. It was pointless to fight them, they were way too strong. Even cultivators of the fifth Tian Qi layer couldn’t defeat them. Besides, the geniuses weren’t even using their full strength. It made challengers feel dispirited to fight such people.
“So, nobody else?” said the patriarch of the Xiao Yao Sect smiling. He looked at everyone and said, “We organized the great sect meeting to plan the war against Tian Chi. We need leaders for that. Gan Yu is really big and it would be difficult to convince everyone, especially since there are so many influential groups in the region. I won’t pretend to be a leader either. Those cultivators are real geniuses, they are imperial cultivation disciples. Besides, they have a very high social status so people trust them. As the patriarch of the Xiao Yao Sect, I decide that those imperial cultivation disciples are the leaders. Does everybody agree?”
“What?” The crowd was surprised. The crowd thought that the patriarch of the Xiao Yao Sect had given them the opportunity to challenge the imperial cultivation disciples to show their strength and become leaders, they hadn’t thought that those imperial cultivation disciples would end up the leaders.
“I agree.” said King Dragon.
“I also think that it’s the best thing to do, it is even an honor for us, Gan Yu’s people, to have these cultivators with such a high social status become the leaders of our war against Tian Chi.” said Duan Mu.
“I agree too.” said Mie Qing indifferently. The three leaders agreed.
“Even though I admit they are talented, the imperial cultivation disciples don’t have a very high cultivation level. Aren’t they too weak?” many people whispered in the crowd. Many were skeptical.
“They have a high social status and they are talented. We could just listen to their orders, isn’t that even better?” said the patriarch of the Xiao Yao Sect when he saw people’s faces. So… in fact, he wanted to keep them in control.
“How sly.” groaned Lin Feng coldly. The three leaders didn’t need to say they were the leaders, they just had to put a few talented young people in the front and control them from behind. The imperial cultivation disciples wouldn’t decide anything important. But in any case, behind the scenes, there was something going on between the imperial cultivation disciples and the three leaders.
“Indeed.” said someone at that moment. Lin Feng turned around and saw a smiling old man.
“Teacher.”
“Little Lin Feng, shouldn’t we cause some trouble together?” said the old man narrowing his eyes and looking at the stage.
Lin Feng’s eyes twinkled and he replied, using telepathy, “Teacher, was it you a moment ago?”
The old man smiled and nodded. He was the one who had talked and humiliated those people. Those people wanted to join hands and destroy Tian Chi as if Tian Chi were evil.
“Alright, teacher. Let’s have some fun.” said Lin Feng. He looked at the stage and said, “Patriarch, why do I have the feeling that this is all staged?”
Everybody was stupefied and looked at him. When they saw that the one talking was a sick looking young man with a yellow face, they looked at him in a despising way. Was he tired of living? It was surprising the accused them of such things.
It was dangerous to offend the patriarch of the Xiao Yao Sect.
“Explain.” said the patriarch of the Xiao Yao Sect looking cold.
“Patriarch, if you want to be the leader, organize the great sect meeting and tell everyone that you’re the leader. Why do you need those imperial disciples? They’re talented but that’s all.” said Lin Feng indifferently. People were astonished, talented but that’s all?
“Do you not believe that they’re extremely strong and that they’re geniuses?” asked the patriarch.
“They have a high social status but they are imperial cultivation disciples so what do they have to do with the Gan Yu’s internal affairs? Everybody clearly understands that those people are a bit more talented than average cultivators and that they participated in a few battles. Is that enough to convince everyone that they should become leaders?” said Lin Feng before adding, “For example, if I challenge a few people and say I’m an imperial cultivation disciples, can I become a leader too?”
The patriarch stared at Lin Feng. He hadn’t thought that someone would cause him trouble. How audacious.
“Come onto the stage.” said the patriarch.
“Alright. Today is the great sect meeting, I think that you can convince everybody that you are right.” said Lin Feng while slowly getting onto the stage.
Tian Lin was staring at Lin Feng in a cold way as he said, “You again.”
“Indeed.” said Lin Feng smiling at Tian Lin. He then looked at the patriarch of the Xiao Yao Sect and said indifferently, “Patriarch, they only fought once, won once and were chosen to be leaders because they possess so much social sway. If I fight against a few people and win, will that prove that I am also extremely talented and will I be able to act as a leader?
“Show us first if you’re even strong enough to be standing on this stage.” said the patriarch while smiling coldly, “You have only broken through to the first Tian Qi layer. Fight against a cultivator of the third Tian Qi layer and if you lose and die, it’ll prove you’re a piece of trash.”
The patriarch looked at the crowd. In a flash, someone stepped onto the stage and stared at Lin Feng. Lin Feng understood what the patriarch meant and that person had broken through to the third Tian Qi layer.
“Since you dare proclaim yourself a genius, I will make things difficult for you. If you lose, I’ll kill you for causing trouble at the great sect meeting.” said the one who challenged Lin Feng. The patriarch of the Xiao Yao Sect wouldn’t kill Lin Feng but Lin Feng was saying he was a genius, so if the challenger killed him, the challenger would be considered a great warrior.
“Boom!” that person used the Xiao Yao agility technique and it became difficult to track his movements.
Lin Feng looked at that person and released his godly awareness. Everything around him suddenly seemed very clear and precise. He could see every single movement the challenger made.
“Die!” Lin Feng didn’t release any Qi at all, in fact, he remained motionless. When the challenger saw that Lin Feng wasn’t moving, he closed the gap. He was moving so fast that it created a strong gusts of wind.
“Boom!”
He tried to punch Lin Feng, but Lin Feng grabbed him when he got close enough. The challenger couldn’t move any further. Lin Feng was gripping his hand and it seemed like he was going to crush it.
Lin Feng had the strength of the Heruka and the body of a Buddha. Trying to compete with Lin Feng using physical strength was way too dangerous.
“Boom boom boom!” Then, Lin Feng punched the challenger’s throat and released some sword energy. It felt like a million swords were penetrating his throat and suddenly, he flew away.
“Initially, it was supposed to be a way of exchanging views on cultivation, but since you threatened to kill me, I can’t remain polite.” said Lin Feng indifferently. In the distance, a thump was heard. It was the challenger’s body which had finally fallen down from the sky, dead.
Lin Feng, a cultivator of the first Tian Qi layer had killed a cultivator of the third Tian Qi layer in one punch.
Lin Feng had just proved he was strong.
Lin Feng turned around and looked at the patriarch of the Xiao Yao Sect, “Patriarch, I did the same as them. Since they are leaders, can I be a leader too?”
