Chapter 434: Reverse Breed

Chu Feng's killing intent permeated the air. He had been lured into a trap. It truly was a case of knowing a person's face but not their heart. Huang Tong had given him a very good impression, so he never expected to be betrayed by him at such a crucial moment.

"Brother Chu, I truly apologize, but I had no choice," Huang Tong said, feigning sincerity. However, this only made Chu Feng despise him even more. This person was utterly detestable.

Huang Tong continued, "For an evolutionist who aspires to be a galactic hunter, one sometimes has to control their emotions. To complete a mission, there are times when you must send natives or barbarians, who could have become your friends, to the execution block."

So-called galactic hunters roam between undeveloped, wild planets, engaging in various clandestine activities. Hired by others, they are sometimes cold-blooded, sometimes hypocritical and cunning, all for bounties and rewards.

"Lion-beast, don't let me catch you, or I'll smash your head in like a dog's!" Chu Feng said coldly. He was rarely tricked, and yet an alien being with a lion's face and human body had actually deceived him.

"Hmm, think what you will. But once you're dead, I'll try to keep my word. If I haven't left this barbaric planet by next year, I'll go to your grave, burn two pieces of paper, and pour two bottles of fine wine as an offering. So, for now, you can rest easy. Any further resistance is futile. You are no match for the Hundred Transformations Saint Child; in the end, you are merely prey."

Huang Tong spoke slowly and deliberately, completely at ease. He saw nothing wrong or shameful in deceiving Chu Feng; on the contrary, he felt a sense of accomplishment. This was, after all, his job.

Around him, a group of Descendants wore complex expressions and retreated. They had always found this lion-faced man too cunning. Initially, he had seemed righteous, standing up for Chu Feng and uniting everyone to kill the survivors from Penglai, but it turned out he had ulterior motives.

Chu Feng stopped bothering with him, unwilling to waste another word. He would make him wish for death once he was captured.

Ahead, clouds steamed and glowed with colorful light. That area was the folded space where the Hundred Transformations Saint Child resided. Nothing was visible at the moment, covered by mist and shimmering light, making it hazy and sacred.

It wasn't until someone stepped forward, stirring up a powerful gale around them, that the area became clearly visible.

A young man, with black hair as lustrous as silk falling to his waist, had a fair and handsome face. He appeared slightly effeminate, more beautiful than many women, and his eyes sparkled.

"A 'rebel seed' has become a Chosen One among the natives. You are very much worth hunting. After I plunder your life and fate, don't disappoint me,"

Yuwen Feng said, wearing a gentle smile. Even as he spoke of slaughter, his smile did not falter, though his words carried a cruel intent.

When Chu Feng saw him and heard his words, his hair stood on end. The term "rebel seed" had reappeared. How many years had it been since that term was last used?

In the past, when the beings on this planet were defeated, women, children, and the elderly scattered, fleeing for their lives. The Starry Sky Knights specifically hunted them down, referring to adult males as "rebel seeds" and suppressing and slaughtering them in a bloody rampage.

That was a dark and bloody chapter in history!

Chu Feng had personally witnessed those historical scenes on the Moon, and at the time, his scalp had tingled, and his chest had swelled with furious indignation. That group of Iron Cavalry was truly abhorrent.

After such a long time, someone in the present day was calling him a "rebel seed," which instantly gave Chu Feng goosebumps and stirred deep emotions within him.

"You deserve to be cut into a thousand pieces! Get out of that folded space and face your death!" Chu Feng shouted, looking at the Hundred Transformations Saint Child, who was still some distance away, standing within the folded space.

He knew clearly that the Iron Cavalry of old, those executioners, were still haunting the world, and that their successors, some of their descendants, had come directly to Earth.

Bai Qing, dressed in snow-white robes, stood close to Yuwen Feng and sternly rebuked Chu Feng, "How dare you be so insolent? His Highness's destiny is ordained by heaven. How can a mere native like you resist?"

"Hmm, though you are a 'rebel seed,' you are not worthy of my personal attention. The Starry Sky Iron Cavalry I have personally trained will suffice," Yuwen Feng said blandly.

He had learned from his ancestors about the ways of those iron-blooded, cold-hearted knights and had used that knowledge to cultivate a powerful retinue of his own.

Chu Feng roared, "You vile, heartless Saint Child, you yearn for the cruelties of the past! Are you trying to summon the spirits of those infamous Starry Sky Iron Cavalry?"

Yuwen Feng was not angered. He retained his faint smile and lightly clapped his hands. "Capture this 'rebel seed' for me and bring him here."

In the area behind Chu Feng, white mist swirled, and figures emerged one after another. Some were mounted directly on ferocious beasts, each radiating an intimidating aura.

The moment Chu Feng saw them, his pupils contracted. They truly resembled the Starry Sky Iron Cavalry he had seen on the Moon, even down to their attire: grim armor and extraordinary weapons.

A total of six knights appeared, radiating a ruthless aura. Three of them were mounted on savage beasts; even their mounts had successfully crossed dimensions.

In the distance, those who had come with Huang Tong and Chu Feng gasped in shock. These six knights, enveloped in mist, emitted powerful, undisguised energy fluctuations. Their power levels were palpable, indicating that they were invincible at the current stage.

This was because they were beings who had broken eleven or twelve shackles, and even their mounts were similarly powerful, unmatched on Earth at present.

Such a force, having crossed dimensions, could sweep aside all evolutionists among the natives, becoming unstoppable.

"These are already considered my weakest subordinates," Yuwen Feng explained. "Some of them even crippled themselves to cross over, greatly reducing their power, which allowed them to successfully arrive."

Yuwen Feng's words sent shivers down many spines. They felt trepidation and secretly marveled. This truly was a Saint Child-level figure, whose weakest followers were already so formidable.

"Hmm, I hear you are a domain researcher. Coincidentally, I also have two servants skilled in this art who have already gone ahead. They can exchange insights with you," Yuwen Feng said with a faint smile.

At that moment, behind the six Iron Cavalry, figures emerged from the mist, and a voice said, "There's no need to personally kill this 'rebel seed.' We will use domain arts to destroy him in his own most proficient field."

The reason white mist billowed in this area was due to these two individuals, who had also concealed the aura of the Iron Cavalry. Their methods were extraordinary.

These two domain researchers were extremely confident!

However, not long ago, they and the Iron Cavalry had been hidden further away. Only after seeing Chu Feng venture deep did they quickly arrive to cut off his retreat.

Otherwise, even with their impressive domain skills, they wouldn't have been able to hide from Chu Feng at close range, nor could they have shielded his senses in an adjacent area.

Many who had followed them to this spot were startled. Two domain researchers appeared just like that? This was extraordinary. Such individuals were the most precious, far fewer in number than evolutionists, and yet the Hundred Transformations Saint Child, Yuwen Feng, had two by his side. His backing was truly profound.

At this moment, even those on the other two star paths showed surprise and were moved.

The young Divine Child-level figure playing chess with the old man showed slight surprise, raising his head briefly to look at the two domain researchers, but quickly returned to his calm demeanor.

Princess Lin's heart pounded. She secretly sighed, thinking, 'As expected of an extraterrestrial Saint Child-level figure.' Chu Feng, as a domain researcher, was already astonishing enough, but Yuwen Feng had two such individuals among his followers. How could they even compare?

She shook her head. This was an asymmetrical force. No matter how powerful a Chosen One among the natives was, they couldn't compare to extraterrestrial Saint Children or Divine Children. They would simply be crushed, with no hope of victory or survival!

She let out a slight breath of relief, feeling a touch of guilt, but ultimately she had made the correct choice not to get involved with Chu Feng at this critical juncture.

Not far away, on another star path, the Demon Race Saintess was alluring and charming when she smiled, but cold and captivating, with a hint of ruthlessness, when expressionless. Now, she watched the scene with considerable interest.

The Peacock King and Nine-Lives Cat King stood respectfully aside, holding this woman in awe. At this moment, both sighed inwardly, thinking that while Chu Feng was remarkable, he still fell far short when compared to extraterrestrial beings. What was Chu Feng good at? Domain arts. Yet the Hundred Transformations Saint Child had directly sent out two such figures. This lineup was simply crushing! As for evolution, there was no comparison; the weakest of the Hundred Transformations Saint Child's followers far surpassed Chu Feng in evolutionary level!

The Peacock King and Nine-Lives Cat King exchanged glances, concluding that their choice was correct. Aligning themselves with powerful extraterrestrial Saintesses and Divine Children was the right move.

They had once been very proud and confident, which was why they had hesitated and agonized for a long time before making their recent decision, but now their minds were at ease.

Bai Qing spoke with a beaming smile, "While domain researchers are extraordinary and truly remarkable talents, my Saint Child never lacks such followers. Chu Feng, are you still so arrogant now?"

The two domain researchers, enveloped in mist, felt no pressure facing Chu Feng and possessed a sense of superiority.

In their view, on a declining planet, the legacy of domain arts was merely fragmented, with the true treasures still buried underground, undiscovered by anyone.

Moreover, based on the information they had previously received, they judged that Chu Feng was definitely inferior to them and would be utterly suppressed.

"Come now, let the duel between domain researchers begin! We will slay you in the field you are most skilled in!"

Both wore faint smiles, utterly certain of the outcome of the battle.

However, they were not careless. They had already secretly set up their arrangements, intending to eliminate Chu Feng in one fell swoop. In fact, they had the home advantage, having buried many magnets, just waiting for Chu Feng to step into this Lu Mountain area to his death.

Upon hearing this, Chu Feng showed disdain, a cold smile playing on his lips. He had just returned from the Moon, and someone already wanted to use domain arts against him?

At this moment, the Hundred Transformations Saint Child, Yuwen Feng, spoke, "Hmm, remember, I want him alive, not dead, and not maimed. Capture him completely intact; he will be of great use to me."

"As you wish, a domain duel," Chu Feng said, lightly stamping his foot on the ground. The underground arrangement of magnets immediately became chaotic. In an instant, his mental power surged from his forehead, rewriting the symbols within the magnets and completely altering the domain array the two had meticulously prepared.

"Then prepare to die!" the two domain researchers shouted in unison, activating their proudly constructed underground domain.

In that very instant, a blinding, fiery light erupted.

Smiles still lingered on their faces, but terror instantly flashed in their eyes. The terrifying light beam was not assaulting Chu Feng from his vicinity; instead, it was surging up from beneath their own feet.

"No!" one of them shrieked, then exploded on the spot. His end was truly tragic.

"Ah..." The other wailed, rolling on the ground, as his entire body was engulfed in flames. A few wisps of Sun Fire Essence clung to him, unquenchable, and he quickly turned into a pile of ashes.

The scene fell silent; not a sound was heard from the surroundings!

Even the six knights standing not far away were stunned. Though powerful, they couldn't react in time and had no idea what was happening.

Chu Feng spoke indifferently, "Which star domain are you from? Is this some kind of joke? What kind of 'domain researchers' are these? One self-destructed, and the other self-immolated. Is this a performance? It's quite tragic."

He looked at the Hundred Transformations Saint Child, Yuwen Feng, and said, "These are your so-called powerful followers? Hmm, indeed extraordinary."

Everyone was moved, filled with doubt and astonishment.

Princess Lin was dumbfounded, lost in thought.

The Divine Child-level young man and the old man playing chess also stopped their game, showing surprise as they looked outside.

The Demon Race Saintess was surprised. She didn't understand domain arts, but her own senses were sharp, and she felt something strange. The Peacock King and Nine-Lives Cat King were both perplexed and extremely astonished.

Standing close to Yuwen Feng, his maidservant Bai Qing's face turned ashen, her delicate features covered in frost. She ordered the six knights, "Why aren't you attacking? Seize him!"

"Seize me?" Chu Feng scoffed, saying, "I always felt that everyone you've brought here is a fraud. Two powerful domain researchers actually self-immolated and self-destructed; it's ridiculous. Now you want a true confrontation with me? You'll fare even worse. You should know that my most proficient field is evolution, and my combat power is unrivaled!"

Everyone who heard him silently scoffed. How could someone who had only broken nine shackles boast that his greatest strengths were evolution and combat power?

"Kill!"

One knight roared, charging forth like a bolt of lightning. His long saber slashed towards Chu Feng, its brilliant gleam tearing through the mountainside, shattering all vegetation.

With a raise of his hand, Chu Feng produced a kasaya, vibrant red and translucent, interwoven with golden threads. It not only blocked the terrifying saber strike but also wrapped around the knight, pulling him back.

The kasaya radiated crimson light and golden patterns, appearing extraordinarily unique. Its defensive power was astonishing; it could break through long sabers and even restrain people.

This was a secret treasure given to him by Hu Ruoxian, and Chu Feng had long since tested its power.

In an instant, he captured a knight alive. Without hesitation, he wielded a bronze sword in his other hand, swung it, and with a thump, severed the knight's head, which rolled far away.

Everyone's expressions froze. Such an outcome, and it was only a single encounter! A powerful knight had his head sliced off just like that, cleanly and efficiently!

At this moment, Chu Feng, draped in the kasaya, actually intoned a Daoist salute: "Infinite Heavenly Venerate!"

He looked at the Hundred Transformations Saint Child, Yuwen Feng, and said, "So these are your followers? Some self-destruct, some self-immolate, and some are sliced like vegetables with a single cut. Truly a colorful variety of people. Hmm, Starry Sky Knights, indeed remarkable." Chu Feng was being quite ruthless with his sarcasm.
