Chapter 614 Who is on the Verge of Death?
Shen Feng felt a sudden kiss on his left cheek from Xue Wanyue, and a wry smile crossed his mind. He had only agreed to pretend to be her fiancé! But that didn't mean Xue Wanyue could just kiss him!
Feeling the softness against his arm, Shen Feng saw that Xue Wanyue's chest was pressing right against it, and he couldn't help but clear his throat with a soft cough, "Ahem!"
Overcome with indignation, Xue Wanyue had acted on impulse at Shen Feng's appearance. Now that she had calmed down, her heart pounded wildly, realizing she had been too rash. She slightly relaxed her hold on his arm, trying her best to appear composed.
Not only were Xue Dingkang and Xue Zhengyu stunned for several seconds, but even Gao Huiying and Jiang Zhuyu were at a loss for words. They knew well that Shen Feng was only pretending to be Xue Wanyue's fiancé. Hadn't Wanyue acted a bit too forward? Was she trying to turn the pretense into reality?
For some reason, Jiang Zhuyu felt a sour tightness in her heart as she watched the scene, with waves of jealousy washing over her. She managed not to show it on her face.
After taking a deep breath, she said to Xue Dingkang and Xue Zhengyu, "Is there anything else you'd like to say now? I expect that as a righteous sect, Star Sea Sword Sect would never force someone to take another man's fiancée, and it's time for your Xue Family to stand down."
As a sect master, Jiang Zhuyu wasn't about to let jealousy cloud her judgment.
Gao Huiying, losing her patience, waved her arm dismissively and said, "Leave! Or do you really want to be guests at the Hundred Flower Sect?"
Seeing Xue Wanyue so intimately linked with Shen Feng's arm and even kissing his cheek left Xue Dingkang and Xue Zhengyu reeling; they had not expected such a young man to emerge from within the Hundred Flower Sect! However, they were determined to see this marriage through, otherwise they would not only gain nothing but would also be blamed by that outer gate elder of Star Sea Sword Sect.
Noticing that Shen Feng only radiated a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation aura, Xue Dingkang and Xue Zhengyu were considerably relieved. After all, how could Xue Wanyue, with her Nascent Soul Initial Stage cultivation, possibly pair up with a Foundation Establishment youngster? In their view, Xue Wanyue and the Hundred Flower Sect were really throwing themselves into this act.
With a dark gaze, Xue Zhengyu glowered at Shen Feng and barked, "Kid, do you know what you're meddling in? With your mere Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation, you dare interfere in the matters of Star Sea Sword Sect. How much has Hundred Flower Sect offered you? Don't get in my way here, disappear at once."
Shen Feng simply shrugged his shoulders slightly, his expression unchanging; he didn't move an inch from where he stood.
Seeing Xue Zhengyu speak so rudely to Shen Feng, Hu Fangmei, a First Grade Spirit Chef, finally found an opportunity to shine. She wouldn't miss it, as she had many questions about Spirit Chef craft she wanted to ask Shen Feng.
She stepped forward, her cloudy eyes narrowing slightly, and said coldly, "This is Hundred Flower Sect's territory; what right does the Xue Family have to run wild here? Don't think just because you rely on Star Sea Sword Sect you can do whatever you want. At best, you only have a slight connection with an outer gate elder of Star Sea Sword Sect—do you really think you have ties with their sect master? How laughable. The ones who should disappear are you two. Are you really forcing us to take action?"
The imposing aura of the Late Stage of Nascent Variation suddenly burst forth from Hu Fangmei, and a faint murderous intent could be seen on her face.
Upon seeing Hu Fangmei's sudden change of demeanor,
Xue Dingkang and Xue Zhengyu's expressions shifted; they knew Hu Fangmei was not just a guest elder of the Hundred Flower Sect but also a First Grade Spirit Chef.
The Spirit Chef Hall was a very special power, not to be trifled with by the likes of them. If Hu Fangmei and others took action, their two lives would be in no doubt lost.
Xue Dingkang and Xue Zhengyu had not expected that Hu Fangmei, a guest elder, would get involved in matters pertaining to the Star Sea Sword Sect.
Usually, guest elders in sects wouldn't involve themselves in such troublesome matters since they enjoyed a great deal of freedom within the sect.
At this point,
father and son knew they could only wait for the people from Star Sea Sword Sect to arrive. Yet, as they looked at the unperturbed face of Shen Feng, they felt particularly gloomy. In their eyes, this young man was entirely relying on the support of Hundred Flower Sect; otherwise, he surely would have been scared out of his wits by them.
Leaving the pavilion with frustration and anger, Xue Dingkang cast one more look back, fixing his gaze on Shen Feng, and said, "Kid, let me remind you of something. Don't be oblivious to your impending doom. There are matters that you, a minor character, can't meddle in."
Hu Fangmei and Gao Huiying, among others, also truly knew that now was not the suitable time to take action against Xue Dingkang and Xue Zhengyu, when Hu Fangmei again wanted to stand up for Shen Feng.
The always composed Shen Feng spoke first, "Who is the one unaware of their impending doom? I truly feel sorry for you two!"
"Since you've reminded me, I always like to return the favor. Let me give you a few more words of advice."
Upon hearing this.
Xue Dingkang and Xue Zhengyu found it very amusing; a mere Foundation Establishment Stage junior acting like a big shot in front of them!
However, their expressions instantly turned cloudy and uncertain when they heard what Shen Feng said next.
Shen Feng said, "Starting a month ago, whenever you two are under moonlight, you know very well what happens to you, no need for me to elaborate, right?"
Indeed.
Since a month ago, whenever they were bathed in moonlight, they would rapidly grow wolf fur on their bodies and eventually be covered in it entirely. Unable to stand on their feet, they would have to walk on all fours like a wolf.
Recently, Xue Dingkang and Xue Zhengyu were quite troubled by this, having sought out many a Pharmacist and Alchemist, but no one could find anything wrong with them.
This had caused them to relax quite a bit, thinking if it was only the moonlight at night that affected them strangely without causing any harm to their bodies, it was still within their range of acceptance.
Very few people knew about this matter, not even Xue Wanyue was aware, let alone this young man in front of them. Could it be that this youth had seen right through their condition? How could that be possible?
As they steadied their emotions, ready to lash out with accusations of nonsense.
Shen Feng said further, "You can press down two inches below the location of your heart."
Upon hearing this.
Xue Dingkang and Xue Zhengyu were slightly stunned, then involuntarily extended their fingers, pressing the spot Shen Feng mentioned.
The moment their fingers pressed down.
"Ah! Ah!"
Two agonizing screams immediately echoed through the air.
"Bang! Bang!"
Both Xue Dingkang and Xue Zhengyu collapsed onto the ground, drenched in a cold sweat, their bodies convulsing continuously on the floor.
Their faces were filled with immeasurable pain, gasping for air, the pain was so intense they couldn't even speak, their hearts felt as if they were about to suddenly stop.
Jiang Zhuyu, Xue Wanyue, and the others had no idea what Shen Feng was going to do. But seeing the plight of Xue Dingkang and Xue Zhengyu, could it be that these two were indeed not long for this world?
