Free Web NovelChapter 560: Chapter 339: Kekkei Genkai?
At that moment, Zou Feng’s gaze toward Chen Ang was filled with contempt.
Three thousand Immortal Fate points had gone down the drain. Zou Feng had to fight the urge to scream at Chen Ang, "Fuck this! I want a refund!"
Of course, he couldn’t actually make Chen Ang give him a refund.
Shaking his head in extreme disappointment, Zou Feng couldn’t be bothered with pleasantries and simply turned and walked away.
In fact, it was already quite merciful of him not to taunt Chen Ang.
’After all, not only were Chen Ang’s fees exorbitant, but he’d also talked a big game, claiming he could shatter my Evil Qi toxic dragons in a single move. It had actually gotten my hopes up a little...’
’It seems fighting people ranked around one hundredth on the Skyward Rankings won’t have much of an effect on me.’
’If I want to restore my battered state of mind, just crushing a weakling like Chen Ang won’t cut it.’
’I need to face a truly strong opponent, have an exhilarating, all-out battle, and immerse myself in the feeling of my own power before finally seizing a decisive victory. Only that would have a significant effect.’
’I’ll probably have to find a prodigy ranked around fiftieth...’
With that, Zou Feng left to search the hall for a higher-ranked disciple.
Meanwhile, Chen Ang, still reeling in shock, became the center of attention as a crowd began to gather.
This was big news. Someone in the top one hundred of the Skyward Rankings had clearly been beaten into a stupor after a duel. It was only natural that this would draw a crowd of gawkers and incite a flurry of discussion.
There was no shortage of people gloating over his misfortune, especially the disciples who had previously lost to him.
And Chen Ang truly was in a state of shock.
Given his genius-level talent since he began his Cultivation, he had never suffered such an incomprehensible defeat.
’Zou Feng’s rank on the Skyward Rankings had even been lower than mine, and yet... during the battle, I couldn’t even fight back!’
’All I could do was watch in despair as five ferocious toxic dragons lunged at me, and just like that, the battle was over...’
’No, that wasn’t a battle. It was a one-sided annihilation.’
Staring blankly at Zou Feng’s retreating back, Chen Ang understood for the first time what true terror felt like.
Chen Ang was sure of it: during Zou Feng’s battle against Li Dingjie, he definitely hadn’t possessed his current level of strength.
’And yet, in less than a year, his power has grown to such an absurd degree?’
’It feels like... Zou Feng could probably even take on a typical Dao Foundation Realm Cultivator...’
It must be said, Chen Ang’s assessment was rather conservative.
Zou Feng could do more than just "take on" an ordinary Dao Foundation Realm cultivator; Fu Jiaming, who had an Earth Tier Dao Foundation, had long since been turned to ash by him.
Fortunately, Chen Ang was a prodigy among prodigies. After a brief period of shock, he wasn’t so broken that he couldn’t recover.
His mind quickly began replaying the battle.
’Strictly speaking, while defeat was inevitable, I shouldn’t have been instantly defeated by those five toxic dragons.’
’Zou Feng’s attack just came so far out of left field that I froze, unsure how to react...’
Before long, Chen Ang had adjusted his mindset. He resolved that once Zou Feng’s Mind Body was created, he would challenge it again and again, no matter the cost.
’I have to study every last detail of Zou Feng’s power!’
’As for the jeers from the crowd...’
’...it’s nothing more than the squawking of the weak.’
Meanwhile, Zou Feng was having no luck finding a suitable opponent.
This was normal. Even among the top one hundred prodigies on the Skyward Rankings, and even for battle fanatics like Chen Ang, most wouldn’t choose to spend all day here.
Fortunately, news that Zou Feng had suddenly appeared at the Battle Hall and humiliated Chen Ang spread quickly.
Eventually, the news reached someone who had been wanting to spar with Zou Feng.
That person immediately rushed to the Battle Hall, afraid they would miss him.
Just as Zou Feng was considering challenging a Mind Body for lack of a better opponent, a woman entered the Battle Hall in a flurry, surrounded by an entourage.
Zou Feng turned and saw the woman’s gaze lock onto him as she strode quickly in his direction.
The woman had a full head of white hair, so long it nearly dragged on the floor.
Furthermore, every strand of her hair seemed meticulously groomed; it was exceptionally lustrous and looked unbelievably silky.
Her features were just as exquisite, virtually flawless, except for a white eyepatch over her left eye, suggesting something was wrong with it.
Zou Feng, of course, had never met this woman before, but from the buzzing whispers of the crowd, he soon learned her name and identity.
Yan Lingshuang, the undisputed number one of the Tianxiang Association in the Spiritual Energy Realm, powerful enough to completely dominate Mu Wanrou—who had since been turned into a display of human fireworks.
Before she could get any closer, Zou Feng quickly pulled out his Token to check the Skyward Rankings.
Yan Lingshuang was ranked an impressive forty-first!
A look of delight instantly appeared on Zou Feng’s face.
’I’d just been agonizing over not being able to find a prodigy ranked fiftieth or higher, and who would have thought one would come knocking on my door.’
’After all, judging by her aggressive aura, she isn’t here for a friendly chat over tea.’
"Senior Sister Yan!"
The next moment, before Yan Lingshuang could reach him, Zou Feng strode forward to meet her.
Yan Lingshuang didn’t respond. Instead, she sized Zou Feng up, looking him up and down.
Clearly, she hadn’t witnessed his battle with Li Dingjie. This was the first time she had seen Zou Feng in person.
She stared for so long that Zou Feng started to feel awkward. Only then did Yan Lingshuang finally speak. "For Senior Sister Liu to take a liking to you... I’m quite curious to see for myself what’s so special about you!"
From her words alone, Zou Feng knew she hadn’t come all this way just to settle some old score.
