1717 Strange Connection With the Ring, The Storm Queen, Feng Qiyu’s Invitation
“Is Liu Chuanxing somehow related to Wu You? Otherwise, why would he try to save him?”
“Then again, I heard that the Divine Lightning Tribe is not on good terms with the Nether King Tribe, so why would the Prodigies from these two tribes work together? There must be another reason behind this.”
Chu Kuangren thought to himself.
Looking at the bloodstain on the ground, he felt a familiar and strange aura coming from it.
‘What kind of ancient aura is this?’
“Lil Ai, analyze this aura for me.”
“Yes, Master!”
Lil Ai immediately started analyzing it, and it did not take long before she said, “Master, this aura has a certain connection with the aura inside your ring.”
“Oh.”
Chu Kuangren’s eyes lit up as he looked at the dark black ring on his finger. Then, his eyes narrowed a little.
Until now, he still could not find out what the deal with the ring was.
Back then, the Emperor Tribe also wanted to steal that ring from him, and moments ago, another person with a similar aura to the aura inside that ring, Liu Chuanxing, showed up. Moreover, that person was trying to save Wu You from being killed by Chu Kuangren.
‘Is Liu Chuanxing somehow related to the Emperor Tribe?’
“It looks like things are getting more and more interesting.” Chu Kuangren chuckled.
At the very least, he was sure that many were after that ring of his.
‘Perhaps he was a goon sent by the Emperor Tribe?’
‘Liu Chuanxing, having witnessed my overwhelming strength, might’ve wanted to save Wu You to join forces with him later and go against me. After all, Wu You was quite a powerful cultivator and someone who could be manipulated.
“Haha, what an interesting rag-tag bunch of fools. Now, which one among you is strong enough to steal this ring from me, I wonder?”
Chu Kuangren did not mind playing along with their plans.
If that turned out to be a simple game of prey versus predator, it might be too boring for him.
For Chu Kuangren, the prey must also deal with the hunter to make things interesting.
Chu Kuangren chuckled before he disappeared in a flash, leaving the area.
Beneath the Immortal Tree, Chen Fei and the others had already met up with Ling Fei, Han Xingyu, and Feng Qingxue.
Soon after, Chu Kuangren appeared and walked toward them slowly. Everyone went to greet him.
“Heavenly Sword, are you alright?”
“What’s the matter? Do you think I’ll have trouble against a little weakling like Wu You?” Chu Kuangren said indifferently.
Everyone grinned upon hearing that. Sure enough, their Heavenly Sword was the strongest.
“What about Wu You?”
“You’ll have to ask the winds themselves. After all, he has already been reduced to ashes and scattered in the winds.”
Although everyone anticipated that, they were still shocked.
They were shocked not because Chu Kuangren had killed Wu You but because of the Nether King Tribe the latter came from. By killing him, the Heavenly Sword had undoubtedly offended the Nether King Tribe.
“The trickiest person to deal with from the Nether King Tribe is not Wu You but Wu Tianming!” said Ling Fei.
Wu Tianming was ranked fifth on the Heavenly God Leaderboard. He proclaimed himself the Nether King Heaven Daoist and was many times more powerful than Wu You.
“It doesn’t matter. Those beneath the Heavens are all the same!” said Chu Kuangren.
His words were clear. Regardless of whether it was Wu You or Wu Tianming, it would be no difference to him.
If he could kill Wu You, he could surely do the same to Wu Tianming!
“As expected of the Heavenly Sword, his confidence and pride are truly admirable!”
At that time, a voice sounded.
A beautiful woman in a long cyan dress was approaching the group gracefully from afar. She was surrounded by Immortal Sparks, which attracted a lot of people’s attention.
Upon noticing who she was, everyone immediately exclaimed, especially some of the men, whose faces were filled with admiration.
“That’s Feng Qiyu! She’s here!”
“By the heavens, I can’t believe Feng Qiyu is here. Does she want to fight the Heavenly Sword for the Divine Oceanic Immortal Fruit?”
“Feng Qiyu is a Prodigy ranked third on the Heavenly God Leaderboard. If she were to attack, even the Heavenly Sword will have a hard time winning.”
Everyone was engaged in a heated discussion.
Feng Qiyu was a legendary Prodigy and cultivator from the Feng clan. Although the Feng clan was a King Tribe, they were no different than the Spiritual Sword Tribe. After all, both tribes had experienced a decline once in the past.
Hence, the Feng clan had been allies of the Spiritual Tribe for a long time, and both tribes would frequently support each other in times of need.
However, despite being born in the Feng clan, Feng Qiyu displayed exceptional talents. Although she did not possess any powerful physiques or bloodlines, her cultivation progress skyrocketed, and it eventually landed her a spot in the Heavenly God Leaderboard’s top three, making her known as the Storm Queen. Even the Peerless Prodigies from the Ancient King Tribes were overshadowed by her.
Since then, she was known as the star of hope for the Feng clan’s future!
“Elder sister…”
Feng Qingxue exclaimed when she saw who it was. Then, she crouched down and hid behind Chu Kuangren.
“Weren’t you so brave when you decided to run away from home back then? Why are you so afraid now, huh?”
When Feng Qiyu glanced at Feng Qingxue, she put away her gentle look and said to her sister indifferently.
Feng Qingxue became more afraid after seeing her sister like that.
“Sigh…”
In the end, Feng Qiyu sighed helplessly. “Don’t worry. I’m not going to do anything to you.”
Feng Qingxue breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the two sisters grew up together, they did not have a close relationship.
Perhaps it was because Feng Qiyu outshined her younger sister too much. Feng Qingxue would always feel uncomfortable when her elder sister was around, and it seemed like an invisible barrier had wedged between the two sisters.
However, the two were still sisters, and they would not have bad blood.
“Sister, are you here for the Divine Oceanic Immortal Fruit too?” Feng Qingxue asked anxiously.
Although she knew Feng Qiyu was extremely powerful, she knew that the Heavenly Sword was comparable to or, if not, stronger than her elder sister in terms of strength. After all, she had been observing him for the past two years.
If the two of them were to fight, she would have no idea what to do. No matter who got injured in the end, she would still feel awful about it.
“If I say yes, what are you going to do about it, Heavenly Sword?” Feng Qiyu looked at Chu Kuangren and said.
“If the Heavens don’t allow it, who would dare take it? There will be no exception, even for you,” Chu Kuangren said with both hands behind his back.
Frankly speaking, he was quite eager for Feng Qiyu to attack. After all, that woman was the strongest Prodigy he had encountered so far.
In fact, her aura made him feel a little threatened for the first time in a while.
Such an occurrence was just too rare.
‘The Heavenly God Leaderboard…’
‘It looks like not all of them are a bunch of useless weaklings.’
‘Then again, that’s a good thing as well. That makes it all the more worth it for me to hunt and kill them!’
“Well, I’m afraid you’ve misunderstood. I don’t intend to fight you for the Divine Oceanic Immortal Fruit. In fact, I happen to know a treasure that has far greater value than this one here. Are you interested to find out more about it?”
“Interesting. Tell me about it.”
“Are you sure you want me to tell you here?”
Feng Qiyu looked around her, and the chattering crowd immediately fell silent. Everyone had turned their ears towards them, hoping to find out what that great treasure she was talking about.
What was everyone’s purpose for coming here?
It was definitely for Opportunities of Fortune!
How could they possibly let an Opportunity of Fortune slip by?
“Not a problem for me.”
An incredibly powerful sword aura instantly erupted from Chu Kuangren’s body and spread everywhere. Every sky-pride present immediately felt a huge pressure weighing down on them and suffocating them.
“Everyone, leave this place right now!”
Upon hearing that, everyone was a little dissatisfied, but they dared not say anything because of how powerful he was.
The crowd soon dispersed.
“You can speak now.”
“The Heavenly Sword is truly swift and resolute in doing things.”
Feng Qiyu laughed before she said, “I know of a place in the Ancient Central Heaven Planet where a great one had left behind his inheritance, and it contains many hidden treasures. There will surely be some treasures more valuable than this Divine Oceanic Immortal Fruit. However, that inheritance’s location is filled with dangerous trials. That’s why I wish to invite the Heavenly Sword to come with me. What do you think?”
