Chapter 549: In the Blink of an Eye, Turned to Ashes

Chu Feng is here!

As people were discussing and some Saint Sons were speaking ill of him, he suddenly appeared. With a single thunderous step, he arrived from the horizon.

Behind him, on the path he had just taken, white mist surged, caused by a massive air explosion.

Lan Shi’s long dress fluttered in the breeze. She stood in the Kunlun Mountains, a place steeped in mythological heritage. Her face was picturesque, and her every glance exuded grace, like a banished immortal.

Upon seeing Chu Feng, a divine light flashed deep within her eyes, and her body even paused slightly. However, others could barely perceive this subtle change. In an instant, her smile became radiant again.

“Chu Feng.” She nodded slightly. Her bright eyes shone, her slender figure stood elegantly tall, her skin was fair and crystalline, and even her hair seemed to glow. Her long dress could barely conceal her graceful curves.

Naturally, she didn't go to pour wine for him. She wasn't warm, nor was she cold; her demeanor was very neutral.

Chu Feng didn't press the matter either. It wasn't time yet.

Chu Feng’s sudden arrival caught everyone by surprise. The Kunlun Mountains were covered in lush green grass, and purple mist permeated the cliffs, resembling an immortal realm. Many Divine Sons and Saintesses were present here, all of them powerful cultivators!

A large group of people watched, their eyes fixed on Chu Feng. He was an uninvited guest, and his appearance was too sudden. He had actually returned on his own accord, appearing before everyone.

Some were nervous, some indifferent, some excited, and some sneering... Their reactions varied.

A moment ago, the group had been engaged in a heated discussion. Many were flattering the Young Divine Son of the Heavenly God Race, thereby casting Chu Feng as a pitiful and pathetic foil. Now that the main character had arrived, some people's expressions turned strange.

This was awkward. They had been talking about Chu Feng, and then, in a flash, he was right there.

The unluckiest one was the Saint Son who had been kicked away. Just moments ago, he had been pointing fingers, speaking with great fervor, intentionally disparaging Chu Feng with disrespectful words. Yet, the very person he spoke of arrived from the horizon, kicked him flying, and left him hanging on the cliff. This truly filled him with shame and anger.

“Chu Feng!” The Saint Son's face flushed crimson, and his body was wracked with intense pain. For a moment, he couldn't move, stuck to the cliff, trembling with rage as he glared at Chu Feng.

“Something wrong?” Chu Feng glanced at him casually, calm and composed.

“You... you're a significant figure, why are you so crude, attacking so suddenly here?” To save face, he completely avoided mentioning his earlier mockery of others, nor did he admit his own lack of strength. He only claimed that Chu Feng was barbaric and had ambushed him.

“I just don't like the look of you, and besides, your seat is quite good,” Chu Feng said with a smile.

What kind of reason was that? It was preposterous. The Saint Son hanging on the cliff felt like spitting blood. This demon was truly unbridled, clearly mocking and taunting him.

“The Young Divine Son is here, and Saintess Qin is also present, how can we tolerate your rudeness!” he retorted angrily. He hoped to change the subject, prompting powerful individuals to intervene and deal with Chu Feng sooner.

“Stop yelping. If you dare make another sound, I'll sell you off later!” Chu Feng threatened.

The group was speechless. All the Divine Sons and Saintesses were utterly silent.

Who talks like that? Threatening to sell a Saint Son the moment he opens his mouth. He truly lived up to his notorious reputation as a human trafficker.

The one on the cliff also broke into a cold sweat; he was getting nervous. Based on the rumors he'd heard, he felt this demon wasn't just bluffing; if things went sour, he might actually sell him!

He opened his mouth but dared not retort. He was quite unnerved, because the person before him was too savage and brutal. He had recently even become a "Silver Client" of the Skyreach Wormhole Company. How did one achieve such VIP status? Everyone in the starry skies knew that too many Divine Sons and Saintesses had been mailed away, which was simply... insane!

Most crucially, Qin Luoyin and the Young Divine Son of the Heavenly God Race were currently ignoring the situation. The one hanging on the cliff naturally felt his heart grow colder.

So, he decisively... kept silent.

Some people were speechless. They all wanted to tell him, "Can't you show a little backbone? You're just going to be threatened and not dare to talk back?"

At this moment, the Young Divine Son of the Heavenly God Race showed a peculiar expression, observing Chu Feng. He didn't lose his temper or speak. He remained calm, seated behind a jade table on the green grass.

He was very tall, with a magnificent and upright bearing. Sitting there, he was a head taller than the other Divine Sons. His thick golden hair emanated a dazzling radiance, as if a sun hung behind his head.

It was obvious that the Young Divine Son of the Heavenly God Race possessed incredibly vast vital energy. Even when dormant within him, it gave off a terrifying sense of oppression, far surpassing that of ordinary people.

Someone demanded, “Chu Feng, what do you think this place is? How dare you act so brazenly and perversely in front of the Young Divine Son and Saintess Qin?”

They were all figures of Divine Son rank, from different planets. In their daily lives, they were naturally spirited and exceptionally confident. Even after coming to Earth and hearing many rumors about Chu Feng, they remained fearless and unconvinced.

Thus, some questioned and rebuked Chu Feng.

Chu Feng casually glanced at him and said, “This is my backyard. Don't you know the Kunlun Mountains have been occupied by me and my brothers? I should be asking you, why are you coming to my house for no reason?”

At this point, he asserted himself as the host, looking at the person and saying, “I am the true landlord of the Kunlun Mountains.”

“That's right, this entire planet is ours. You trespass here and then accuse us of rudeness? This is our home!” From afar, Zhou Quan shouted.

Many turned their heads.

At this moment, if anyone was most afraid, it was naturally the people from Penglai, Fangzhang, and Yingzhou. Half a day ago, some of their forces dispatched to the vicinity of West Lake were completely wiped out by Chu Feng, who showed them no mercy. This made them increasingly worried; if Chu Feng truly rose to power, they would be in for a terrible time.

A small contingent of people from Penglai, Fangzhang, and Yingzhou were also present here.

They became even more convinced that they needed to seek refuge with forces from beyond the domain, finding a powerful backer like the Heavenly God Race.

“Chu Feng, this planet isn't yours alone. Kunlun is the ancestor of all mountains, the root of all famous mountains in the world. If you want to claim it for yourself, have you asked all the evolvers under heaven? It doesn't just become yours because you say so.”

Unexpectedly, while others were still hesitant, someone from the Fangzhang Secret Realm spoke up, specifically targeting Chu Feng.

Because at this moment, they were all standing behind the Young Divine Son of the Heavenly God Race, acting very subserviently. They weren't seated, but stood respectfully with hands clasped, showing deference.

Clearly, they intended to fully align themselves with the Heavenly God Race. Days ago, Princess Qingqi of the Fangzhang Secret Realm had almost formed a dao-partner relationship with Yu Jiubian, a descendant of a Heavenly God Race retainer. Now that true members of the Heavenly God Race had arrived, they naturally prostrated themselves in submission immediately.

“Heh heh... Even the local people are against you. What more is there to say? This planet isn't dictated by one person. Everything here doesn't belong to you; it belongs to everyone from Penglai, Fangzhang, Yingzhou, and other places.”

A Divine Son from beyond the domain spoke, looking at Chu Feng with a smile and a hint of mockery.

Chu Feng glanced at him indifferently and said, “Do you know who they are? They are a bunch of extremely servile lackeys. Do you take their words as gospel? Are your stances aligned, or are you inherently the same kind of people?!”

Everyone gasped. This demon was a fighter, or rather, a battle demon. He started confronting people the moment he arrived, attacking or speaking up against anyone he disliked, truly fearless.

That Divine Son was thoroughly enraged. He knew the origins of the people from Penglai, Fangzhang, and Yingzhou; strictly speaking, they were indeed descendants of ancient battle-servants. Now, the people from secret realms like Penglai and Fangzhang had immediately surrendered to outsiders, which indeed showed their slavish nature and made them look down upon.

“You are too barbaric and unreasonable!” The Divine Son's words were truly powerless.

Many Saintesses were present, each either pure and ethereal or seductive and graceful, all extremely beautiful. Some Saintesses glanced at him, clearly finding his performance lacking.

On the other hand, Chu Feng, this demon and their subconscious enemy, made them show peculiar expressions. They felt he possessed confidence and boldness, making him an extraordinary individual.

A person from Penglai spoke, saying, “Chu Feng, you fail to recognize the grand trend. With numerous Divine Sons and Saintesses descending from beyond the domain, you're merely a mantis trying to stop a chariot. There's no confidence in this; by relying on mere verbal trickery, you'll ultimately suffer a terrible defeat today!”

Chu Feng still ignored them, just as before, disregarding the people from Penglai, Fangzhang, and Yingzhou. He looked at the Young Divine Son of the Heavenly God Race, directly addressing him.

“You accept these kinds of servants too?” His words were quite concise. However, they made the people from the three immortal islands overseas want to vomit blood, filled with immense hatred.

Chu Feng ignoring them was one thing. But with a single simple sentence, he set the tone for their status, deeming them the lowest and most contemptible servants. Such an evaluation was too vicious for them.

Around them, the Divine Sons and Saintesses also showed peculiar expressions, their eyes flickering, because they all realized how damaging Chu Feng's words were.

With just one remark, he negated the efforts of the Three Immortal Islands to voluntarily surrender, reducing their standing to the absolute lowest.

“Chu Feng!” Immediately, some from the Three Immortal Islands had fire in their eyes, wishing they could fight Chu Feng to the death.

However, the people from the three immortal islands instantly fell silent again, because the Young Divine Son of the Heavenly God Race had finally spoken.

“Chu Feng, I find you quite admirable. It's not easy for one person to cause such a commotion.” The Young Divine Son of the Heavenly God Race, radiating golden light, sat there like a sun god. His face was handsome, his golden hair cascaded to his waist, and his eyes were piercingly bright, emitting golden rays.

Chu Feng remained calm and said, “Oh really? I'm undeserving of such praise. As for the people standing behind you, they reek.”

The people from Fangzhang and Penglai each wished they could eat him alive. At this moment, they were indeed standing behind the Young Divine Son of the Heavenly God Race, and Chu Feng was still genuinely targeting them.

Their hearts were filled with intense hatred; they wanted to roar, "It's fine if you're talking to the Young Divine Son, but why do you always have to include us?"

At this, the Young Divine Son of the Heavenly God Race nodded and said, “Indeed. They're just a bunch of spineless slaves; I truly don't think highly of them. Earlier, when I heard that a descendant of one of my Heavenly God Race retainers was going to marry their princess, I was displeased.”

Upon hearing this, the people from the Three Great Immortal Islands had their expressions suddenly change, having received such an evaluation.

Especially the people from Fangzhang Island; their Princess Qingqi had almost married Yu Jiubian back then. At the time, they didn't know he was a descendant of a Heavenly God Race retainer and thought he was a true member of the Heavenly God Race. Afterward, their feelings were complicated.

And now they heard such words. The Young Divine Son of the Heavenly God Race looked down on them completely. He even found it disgusting for a descendant of his retainers to marry one of their princesses.

How could they possibly bear this humiliation?

Chu Feng spoke, saying, “In that case, I'll wipe them out. You wouldn't object, would you? Having such people here simply pollutes the air.”

“Be my guest,” the Young Divine Son of the Heavenly God Race replied.

“Young Divine Son?!” The people from Penglai and Fangzhang cried out, barely believing their ears.

“Shut up!” Someone beside the Young Divine Son of the Heavenly God Race immediately stood up and rebuked them, saying, “If the Young Divine Son wants servants, countless powerful individuals in the starry skies would flock to him. You are merely descendants of servants, and so disloyal yourselves. How dare you even dream of seeking refuge with the Young Divine Son? You haven't weighed your own worth or status; you are simply unworthy!”

“You...” The people from the Three Great Immortal Islands turned ashen, almost spitting blood!

“Pathetic, pitiful, shameful, deplorable!” Chu Feng shook his head, uttering four consecutive words.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh... Although the people from the Three Great Immortal Islands were utterly devastated, once they calmed down, they all shot into the sky at once, wanting to escape. They couldn't stay in this place; it was not only humiliating but also deadly!

However, terrifying beams of light awaited them. Chu Feng had advanced to the Contemplation level, his power skyrocketing. He simply flicked his finger, and blinding divine radiance shot forth!

Poof, poof, poof... In the sky, one figure after another exploded, turning into blood mist, then burning away, all reduced to ashes.

“You've killed those who deserved to be killed. Now, let's talk,” The Young Divine Son of the Heavenly God Race's expression turned cold.

At the same time, in the East Sea, Undying Mountain experienced an anomaly; light beams surged forth.

With a rumble! The Big Black Ox, Yellow Ox, Ouyang Feng, Old Donkey, Northeast Tiger, and others appeared, emerging from the majestic Undying Mountain.
