Chapter 1273: Long Legs All Covered in Hair

Chu Feng was startled back to his senses by the shouts, seeing crowds of people gathering around him.

Moreover, his standing place was covered by a barrier of light, blocking his escape route.

To everyone’s surprise, his reaction was unusual.

He exclaimed, “So many long legs!”

Chu Feng muttered to himself, his expression "rippling" with a strange emotion. He showed no fear or panic; instead, he was staring intently at everyone’s legs.

What kind of look was that? What did he mean? His face was truly "rippling" with that strange emotion; his expression was too lewd and peculiar, leaving everyone speechless.

Even familiar faces and his own allies like Monkey, Peng Wanli, and Mi Qing felt utterly bewildered!

Many were perplexed, exchanging bewildered glances.

Some female cultivators were particularly enraged. Cao De's gaze was too direct, specifically staring at people’s long legs!

What some male evolutionaries found unbearable was that Cao De was also staring at their lower bodies, his eyes a little glazed over.

This was... truly deranged, wasn't it?

What kind of stimulus had he received after entering the First Famous Mountain?

Even some elders felt uncomfortable. What kind of bizarre hobby was this? Was Cao De... a perverted Great Sage!?

From the Nine-Headed Bird clan, one of Chi Feng's cousins shouted loudly, interrogating Chu Feng and aiming to condemn him: "Cao De, stop feigning madness! Do you think you can muddle through with strange words and bizarre behavior? It's clear you intended to use this path to escape, deceiving everyone. Now your true colors are exposed. What do you have to say for yourself?!"

At this moment, many looked displeased, staring at Chu Feng. After all, he had been caught red-handed; they had cornered Cao De here, not at his original entry point.

Chu Feng glanced at Chi Feng's cousin and said, "Stop blabbering! You short-legged fellow, go stand aside!"

Upon hearing this, the divine-level evolutionary from the Nine-Headed Bird clan first froze, then erupted in rage, seething with humiliation. This was too infuriating; he simply couldn't stand it.

Being personally attacked was one thing, but being inexplicably insulted for having short legs—what was the logic in that? Was there any causal connection?

Even sworn enemies wouldn't resort to criticizing someone's legs, would they? Aren't evolutionaries judged by their combat strength?

He desperately wanted to curse. Did this damnable Cao De think he was a Great Sage, superior to everyone, and deliberately humiliate him?

"Cao De, why don't you just die!" the divine-level evolutionary from the Nine-Headed Bird clan roared, then sneered, "I don't even need to act. Today, you've angered everyone, even the Celestial Venerables. Do you still have the nerve to live? If you don't end your own life in front of us now, you'll die an even worse death later!"

"Short-legged people have no right to babble here! Stand aside!" Chu Feng rebuked him, his demeanor entirely self-righteous.

This whole situation, this scene, was too much for others to bear. They truly pitied the divine-level figure from the Nine-Headed Bird clan.

"Throwing tantrums and feigning madness, do you think you can muddle through? If you don't court death, you won't die. But now you're finished; no one can save you!" Yun Tuo, the three-headed divine dragon of the Dragon clan, spoke up, sneering.

After observing for a moment, he realized no one had emerged with Chu Feng, and the man was indeed feigning madness, so he directly mocked him.

"Yun Tuo, your legs are quite long, not bad at all. Promising, and quite... flavorful!" Chu Feng said, nodding as he assessed.

Yun Tuo, the three-headed divine dragon, shivered, feeling utterly repulsed. Goosebumps rose on his skin; he couldn't stand being praised by a man in such a way, especially with such an ambiguous gaze.

"Brother Yun Tuo, why bother arguing with a dead man?" Kun Long interjected. As a fellow member of the Dragon clan who also held a deep grudge against Cao De, he found Cao De utterly repugnant and harbored immense resentment, wishing to slay him immediately.

"Kun Long, hold onto that blade tightly, don't drop it again. As for your legs, they're an eighty-five; quite strong and powerful, barely excellent."

Upon hearing these words, everyone felt that Cao De was somewhat perverse. Why did he constantly stare at people's legs for no reason?

He didn't even spare the legs of Monkey, Xiao Yao, and others, scanning them and observing each one.

"Sister Mi Qing, your long legs are a ninety-nine!" Chu Feng assessed, and even secretly transmitted a message, telling her to quickly cover them up so they wouldn't appear overly slender.

Mi Qing was silent for a moment, then immediately wanted to hit him. Her clear, sparkling eyes widened, glaring at him with murderous intent.

"Cao De, how do you want to die?!" a group from the Dragon clan demanded.

The Nine-Headed Bird clan members echoed them, criticizing him in unison.

"Cao De, you are truly deranged! You dared to deceive even the Celestial Venerables, who escorted you here, only to make fools of everyone!"

Divine King Chi Feng sneered repeatedly, a cruel smile on his lips. He truly regarded Cao De as a dead man, with no hope of survival.

Indeed, he now wanted to act. He advanced step by step, confident that no one would object if he tore off Cao De's arm and inflicted a cruel, bleeding injury right now.

"What are you trying to do?" Chu Feng demanded coldly.

He was naturally fearless. Number Nine was right behind him, within the light barrier. He could already imagine Number Nine's current state: probably drooling while staring at everyone's legs.

"Naturally, I'm here to teach you a lesson. What Great Sage? You don't follow rules, don't show reverence to Celestial Venerables, and spout nonsense—you're still going to die. I'll start by severing one of your arms!"

Divine King Chi Feng roared, his hair flying, his expression utterly severe.

"Presumptuous!" Chu Feng rebuked, pointing at him in warning. "How dare you act so arrogant in front of my sect's mountain gate? Are you tired of living!?"

At this moment, Li Jiuxiao and Mi Hong stepped forward, intending to shield Cao De from Chi Feng. As fellow Divine Kings, these two grandmasters were considered top-tier.

However, Celestial Venerable Qi Rong cast a cold, immensely authoritative glance at them, intimidating the entire gathering.

Celestial Venerable Yu Shang moved, stepping forward as chains of divine order intertwined. He intended to block Chu Feng behind him, protecting him first.

However, Celestial Venerable Qi Rong blocked his path, and the mysterious Celestial Venerable, always shrouded in mist, also moved, intercepting Yu Shang. Their gazes met, cold and confrontational.

"Heh heh..."

Chi Feng smiled, then strode forward, approaching Chu Feng.

The Nine-Headed Bird clan members all revealed chilling murderous intent. They hated Cao De intensely and wished to eliminate him swiftly.

"Cao De, do you have anything to say?" Celestial Venerable Qi Rong spoke, his gaze icy.

Then, his expression softened slightly as he asked, "How did you enter, and what exactly is inside?"

Chu Feng responded calmly, "As I've said, this is my sect's mountain. I'm merely returning home, so I can naturally enter and exit as I please. If the Celestial Venerable wishes to know what's inside, you are welcome to come in with me as a guest."

He was neither arrogant nor subservient, remaining perfectly composed.

"Full of lies! You still dare to spout nonsense even when facing death. You won't shed tears until you see the coffin!" an elder Divine King from the Dragon clan rebuked.

"You truly deserve a slap!" Divine King Chi Feng roared further, extending a hand and slowly winding it up, clearly intending to make Cao De see it coming before delivering a powerful slap.

"Presumptuous! I'd like to see who dares to move!?" Chu Feng snapped, his gaze burning brightly. He had already secretly transmitted a message, inviting Number Nine to emerge and enjoy the feast.

Blocked by the barrier of light, even the Celestial Venerables couldn't clearly see what was happening inside.

The mysterious Celestial Venerable shrouded in mist spoke indifferently, "Who exactly is being presumptuous? Are you scolding us in front of everyone? You reckless fool!"

He had previously had the Divine Kings around him reveal that the Li lineage's successors were closely associated with the Martial Lunatic's faction, making it impossible for Cao De to belong to the Li lineage.

"Heh heh..." Chu Feng sneered, ignoring him. What if he was a Celestial Venerable?

Just then, Divine King Chi Feng's palm truly swung forward. But in the next instant, he was struck with terror, feeling as if he had been targeted by a primordial beast.

He rapidly retreated, his hair standing on end.

Silently, a gaunt figure appeared beside Chu Feng, its eyes glowing green, its hair like withered yellow weeds. It looked very much like... a living corpse!

What was happening? Everyone was stunned. An extra person had appeared, and they had emerged directly from the First Mountain?!

None of them had clearly seen how he emerged; it was too bizarre, too fast!

Not to mention the others, even Qi Rong and the mysterious Celestial Venerable felt a chilling dread, their hair standing on end. They hadn't even received a prior warning!

At this moment, the elder Divine King of the Nine-Headed Bird clan felt his liver and guts tear apart, his face turning ashen. He naturally recalled the rare ancient manuscript he had once seen.

Li's master had emerged from here, and the legacy of the prehistoric dark hand originated from this very place.

Earlier, when he had spoken of it, everyone's deductions had led them to believe that Cao De could not be from this lineage, and that the prehistoric legends about this place were unreliable.

But now, it seemed they had all been wrong!

At this moment, all the members of the Nine-Headed Bird clan felt a chill run through their bodies, and they couldn't help but tremble.

"Ah..." Divine King Chi Feng cried out.

Because he found he couldn't retreat; his body, out of his control, was flying towards Chu Feng.

Then, everyone's eyes blurred; it was so fast that even Divine Kings couldn't clearly see, and then they heard Chi Feng's agonizing scream.

When people finally focused their gaze, Chi Feng was sent diagonally flying, crashing to the ground. Divine King blood splattered everywhere as he desperately scrambled backward in pain and terror, his face etched with profound fear.

Beside Chu Feng, Number Nine was gnawing on a Nine-Headed Bird's leg.

"Oh my God!"

Many felt their scalps tingle and their bodies break out in goosebumps. They were now absolutely certain: this was a being that had emerged with Cao De. The First Mountain Under Heaven truly housed a powerful lineage, a terrifying sect.

Now, looking back, their suspicions and actions seemed utterly reckless.

Not to mention the saints and Divine Kings who were chilled to the bone, even Celestial Venerable Qi Rong and others felt their hair stand on end, their scalps tingling. It was unbelievable that such an impossibly powerful living being existed within this prehistoric First Famous Mountain.

Moreover, he was so terrifying, showing no regard for anyone.

The mysterious Celestial Venerable who had earlier rebuked Chu Feng now had the mist around his body surging violently, his emotions highly unstable. Even he was terrified.

"Everyone, allow me to formally introduce you. This is my Ninth Master. You may refer to him as Ancestor Nine."

Upon hearing this, everyone's emotions became incredibly complex. This was... truly something! He had actually brought a person out!

Some felt indignant, such as several elder Divine Kings and Celestial Venerables, all silently grumbling, "You call him Ninth Master, but you expect *us* to call him Ancestor Nine?"

However, their momentary indignation was instantly suppressed. No one dared to provoke or challenge this extremely bizarre being.

In just that brief moment, Chi Feng's leg was almost entirely gnawed away; even the bones had been chewed to bits and swallowed.

Chu Feng spoke again, "Ninth Master, don't just focus on the chicken leg. Let me introduce you to the others."

Just that one glance caused the Dragon clan evolutionaries to go weak in the knees with fear. That damnable Cao De wasn't going to introduce *them*, was he? This was going to lead to their demise! The Dragon clan was terrified.

In fact, the Nine-Headed Bird clan also harbored immense resentment. Calling Chi Feng's leg a "chicken leg" was an insult to their entire clan, but now they dared not voice their anger.

Monkey, Mi Qing, Li Jiuxiao, Ji Caixuan, and the others were speechless and dumbfounded. It was hard to imagine that Cao De was truly a being who had emerged from the First Famous Mountain, having completed his studies there.

*Crunch!* After Number Nine gnawed through and swallowed the last piece of Chi Feng's leg, his eyes glowed green as he scanned everyone present.

"Where's the Celestial Legion?" This was the first time he had spoken in public, as he didn't see many celestial-level beings.

Chu Feng coughed, "Ninth Master, don't rush. Let me introduce you. These are our friends from the Dragon clan."

The Dragon clan members cursed inwardly. Their worst fears had come true; he was actually introducing them like this!

As Number Nine's green eyes swept over them, Yun Tuo, the three-headed divine dragon, felt his legs turn to jelly and could barely stand. A group of elders trembled uncontrollably.

However, Number Nine's green gaze ultimately landed on the Celestial Venerable shrouded in mist. With a *whoosh*, he vanished.

A muffled groan emanated from within the mist.

When Number Nine reappeared beside Chu Feng, he was holding an extra leg in his hand—a massive dragon leg!

Then, he publicly began to gnaw on it.

At that moment, everyone understood: the mysterious Celestial Venerable shrouded in mist actually belonged to the Dragon clan!

Everyone was shocked, unable to believe their eyes. A Celestial Venerable, having a leg instantly ripped off, bloody and being gnawed on in public.

The Dragon clan's Celestial Venerable himself was bewildered. Standing there on one leg, still in human form, he was in immense pain, his face pale. He stared at Number Nine as if he had seen a ghost, his lips trembling.

Chu Feng said, "My Ninth Master is good in every way, except he's a bit protective of his own."

Then, he cleared his throat and said, "Everyone, quiet down. Here, allow me to formally introduce my Ninth Master to you all."

A wave of dread washed over them.

"Please, no more introductions!" Many people were on the verge of screaming in horror. "Whoever gets introduced will have their legs gnawed off!"
