Chapter 499: Chapter 499 I’ve Seen Better Form from a Drunk Mortal
All eyes were attracted to the small figure who appeared. It was a young blonde girl who looked as though she had just been dragged out of bed.
Her beautiful golden hair was slightly messy, and she continuously rubbed her sleepy eyes while yawning adorably.
She wore loose pajamas beneath a hastily thrown robe, making it obvious she had arrived in a hurry. The heavy battlefield atmosphere instantly became strange.
This little girl... Was Lin Feng serious? The moment the blonde girl noticed Lin Feng, however, her sleepy expression immediately vanished. Her eyes lit up brightly like stars.
"Mentor Lin Feng!" she happily cried before running toward him excitedly. "Wanwan is so happy to see you!" Her cheerful voice instantly shattered the suffocating pressure in the area.
Many spectators looked at each other awkwardly. A moment ago, everyone was preparing for a heaven-shaking battle between supreme experts. Now a sleepy little girl was happily greeting her teacher.
The contrast was simply ridiculous.
"Is it Monday already?" Su Wanwan suddenly asked nervously while looking around anxiously. "Am I late for class?"
Apparently, she had been abruptly awakened by Ning Xi and hurriedly brought here without understanding the situation at all. Lin Feng chuckled lightly.
"No. You’re not late."
"Really?" Su Wanwan sighed in relief while patting her chest. "That’s good..." Only then did she finally notice the countless cultivators staring at her from every direction.
The little girl froze. Her face immediately turned red. So many people... Some of them even looked terrifying. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
Su Wanwan instinctively hid behind Lin Feng like a frightened rabbit, clutching his sleeve tightly while secretly peeking at the crowd.
"Mentor..." she whispered shyly. "Why are there so many people here?"
Lin Feng smiled faintly before gently patting her head.
"I brought you here for a small lesson."
"A lesson?" Su Wanwan blinked innocently.
Lin Feng then pointed directly toward Gu Tianzun.
"That vile character over there is looking to stir up trouble. This is the perfect opportunity for you to temper your martial heart, eliminate a bit of filth for the mortal realm, and teach him the price of arrogance."
"...Huh?"
Su Wanwan’s small mouth slowly opened in confusion. She looked at Gu Tianzun. Then back at Lin Feng. Then at Gu Tianzun again. The little girl’s expression gradually became strange.
Meanwhile, the spectators looked at Lin Feng as though he had finally lost his mind completely. He truly intended for this sleepy little girl... To fight Gu Tianzun.
"HAHAHA! Don’t make me laugh!" Gu Tianzun roared with laughter, his voice shaking the heavens and causing the surrounding space to ripple. "Are you truly telling me that a mere child can defeat me? What a ridiculous joke!"
His laughter continued for several moments before gradually fading away. When it did, his expression became cold and disdainful.
He looked down at Su Wanwan as if she were nothing more than an ant standing before a dragon.
"Go home, child," he said arrogantly. "Your teacher is a coward. He knows he cannot face me himself, so he brought you here in the hope that I will show mercy."
Gu Tianzun then shifted his gaze toward Lin Feng. His eyes were filled with contempt.
"If you think, Lin Feng, that hiding behind a little girl is enough to save your life, then you are gravely mistaken. Heaven’s Retribution will descend upon you today regardless of who stands in my way."
The moment he finished speaking, an overwhelming aura burst forth from his body.
BOOOOOOM!
The sky darkened instantly. Violent winds swept through the region. The clouds above twisted into a massive vortex as immortal energy flooded the heavens. Many weaker cultivators turned pale.
Some were even forced to take several steps backward. Others felt their legs trembling uncontrollably.
"What terrifying power!"
"Is this the strength of Gu Tianzun?"
"I can’t even breathe properly!"
"Just his spiritual pressure alone is enough to suppress us!"
Fear appeared on countless faces. Even some powerful elders wore solemn expressions. Gu Tianzun had cultivated for millions of years. His strength had long surpassed the imagination of ordinary cultivators.
To many people present, he was practically invincible. Yet Lin Feng appeared completely unaffected.
The terrifying pressure that was making everyone tremble seemed incapable of affecting him in the slightest. Instead, he simply smiled. Then he looked down at the little blonde girl standing nearby.
"He’s a bully and a bad person, Wanwan," Lin Feng said gently. "Show him what you’ve been practicing all this time."
The little girl immediately nodded. She has complete faith on Lin Feng.
"Wanwan understands, Mentor Lin Feng."
Her cute face became serious. She then turned toward Gu Tianzun. Unlike everyone else, she did not appear frightened. There was no fear in her eyes.
"Wanwan doesn’t like bullies," she said honestly. The innocent words caused many people to blink in surprise.
"And Wanwan doesn’t like bad people." Her small fists clenched.
"If mentor Lin Feng says you’re evil then Wanwan thinks you’re really evil."
The entire area suddenly became silent. Everyone stared at the little girl. Nobody could believe she was speaking to Gu Tianzun in such a manner.
After all, this was an existence capable of destroying entire cities and regions. Many powerful cultivators wouldn’t even dare look directly into his eyes.
Yet this five year old girl was openly calling him evil. The courage or perhaps innocence and this left everyone speechless. Gu Tianzun himself was stunned.
For a brief moment, he actually forgot how to react. Then his face darkened. The surrounding temperature seemed to drop.
"You dare?" The words escaped his mouth slowly. His killing intent intensified. However, Su Wanwan paid him no attention. She simply pointed at him.
"Wanwan will defeat you."
The declaration sounded almost childish. Yet for some reason, Lin Feng smiled. And that smile made several observant cultivators uneasy.
Before anyone could understand why, Su Wanwan suddenly started running.
Tap.
Tap.
Tap.
Her tiny footsteps echoed across the field. The sight left everyone dumbfounded.
