My husband Can Cultivate

Chapter 677: Chapter 677: Really Found a Treasure!

"I wonder who’s going to be unlucky this time!"

"With the Tianhai Association making a move, another round of chaos is about to erupt in Thunder City. I wonder who their target will be."

"Ah, this is terrifying!"

Everyone was in utter despair, their hearts trembling incessantly.

Thunder City had just stabilized and was beginning to flourish, but now the Tianhai Association had set its sights on it. To be honest, they were all deeply unhappy about it. But there was nothing they could do; they couldn’t contend with such a power and didn’t even dare to speak carelessly, lest they end up dead without knowing how.

Of course, some admired the Tianhai Association. As Martial Artists themselves, they were filled with respect for the association’s rapid growth over just a few decades. Some were even hopeful, dreaming of becoming members, but sadly, their abilities were too poor to qualify.

The Tianhai Association was known for being fiercely protective of its own. If anyone touched one of their members, they would hunt the offender to the ends of the earth to eliminate them.

As one of the four great elders and the younger brother of Tianhai Association President Gu Zhiyuan, Gu Mingwu’s reputation in the Martial Arts World was immense, and many people feared him greatly.

Gu Mingwu waved his hand, and the crowd immediately fell silent.

He continued, "Some of you may not know this, but my brother’s only disciple died here in Thunder City. And he was killed by someone from the Star Shining Society!"

BOOM!

The crowd went wild. The Star Shining Society killed the Tianhai Association president’s disciple? They must have a death wish! How could they dare do such a thing?

What was the Tianhai Association? And what was the Star Shining Society? Before the Tianhai Association, the Star Shining Society was nothing but an ant! To dare provoke the Tianhai Association, they must be eager for ruin.

"Was... was that young master named Jin Xing?" someone asked, trembling.

"Precisely!" Gu Mingwu said coldly. "Jin Xing came to Thunder City to inspect business and was murdered. As his martial uncle, I cannot simply overlook this! Tell your President to get his ass out here!"

"We have nothing to do with the Star Shining Society!"

"That’s right, we’re just members of the Martial Arts Association! We have no connection to them at all!"

"You should take this up with Ye Feng!"

Many people quickly backed away, not wanting to get involved. They knew how terrifying the Tianhai Association was; how could the fledgling Star Shining Society possibly compare?

However, some people did not move. They were official members of the Star Shining Society, and they could not retreat.

"Elder Gu, they are all from the Star Shining Society!" a Martial Artist declared, pointing at the group.

Gu Mingwu smiled, a savage grin spreading across his face as he looked at them. "So, you are the members of the Star Shining Society. Very well. Kneel and kowtow in apology for my martial nephew’s death. Do that, and I might consider giving you a quick end. Otherwise, you will all be buried alive!"

Despite the terrifying pressure emanating from Gu Mingwu, the Martial Artists of the Star Shining Society did not back down. They understood a simple truth: whether they submitted or resisted, death was certain. If that was the case, they might as well fight.

"Members of the Star Shining Society die on their feet, not on their knees! In your dreams!" one of them shouted. "That bastard Jin Xing deserved to die! He came to Thunder City wreaking havoc and causing chaos. With him gone, Thunder City is finally peaceful, and everyone can live stable lives. His death was an act of justice!"

"Heh, die on your feet, you say?" Gu Mingwu sneered. "Today, I will make you die on your knees!"

Suddenly, a furious aura surged from him. He appeared before the man who had spoken and thrust his palm downward.

But just at that moment, a flash of sword light tore through the void, piercing toward Gu Mingwu.

Gu Mingwu frowned. His opponent was weaker than him, but their aura was still powerful. If he ignored the attack, there was a high chance he would be injured, so he had no choice but to abandon his target.

Raising his hand, he struck the sword light and shattered it.

A figure had already appeared before him.

"President!" The members of the Star Shining Society were overjoyed. Ye Feng was here! Now they were safe!

"Oh? So you’re Ye Feng, the President of the Star Shining Society," Gu Mingwu scoffed, looking at him with disdain. "You don’t look like much."

"Who are you, and why are you slaughtering innocents here?" Ye Feng asked coldly.

Huang Borren’s intelligence network had been fast. Although they hadn’t noticed Gu Mingwu’s initial arrival in Thunder City, they had started tracking him when he went to find Chen Guoyuan. His visit to the Martial Arts Association was also included and promptly reported to Ye Feng.

"Elder Gu, capture this man! We’ll definitely find the Star Shining Society’s headquarters then! After all, he’s their President!" Chen Guoyuan yelled.

Gu Mingwu nodded, then waved his hand. "Seize this President Ye for me!"

He, of course, disdained to act personally. According to his intelligence, Ye Feng was merely a First Rank Overlord, hardly requiring his personal attention. The men by his side were all experts.

A dozen or so experts, all Great Grandmasters comparable to Yang Taining, lunged at Ye Feng.

CLANG!

With a flash of sword light, seven or eight of them were dead, lying motionless on the ground.

Since Ye Feng knew why his opponents were here, he had no reason to show mercy; his strikes were naturally ruthless.

Everyone was stunned by the scene. This was the first time they had witnessed Ye Feng’s true power. He rarely made a move, so not even the people from the Martial Arts Association knew the extent of his Combat Power.

"What!" Gu Mingwu’s face darkened, his brow furrowed. "You dare kill men from my Tianhai Association?"

"What a joke. You were about to kill my men from the Star Shining Society. Why shouldn’t I kill yours?" Ye Feng retorted contemptuously.

"Good! Very good! It seems I’ve underestimated you. The power of that sword strike was not something a First Rank Overlord could unleash. You’re a Third Rank Overlord! A peak Third Rank Overlord, at that!" Gu Mingwu said, his face sinister.

"Why don’t you find out for yourself?" Ye Feng smiled.

"Such arrogance! If I don’t teach you a lesson today, I, Gu Mingwu, will become a laughingstock."

Gu Mingwu tapped his foot lightly on the ground, and his figure shot forward, appearing instantly before Ye Feng.

BOOM!

He threw a terrifying, mountain-like punch, filled with dreadful power.

Ye Feng didn’t hesitate, meeting it with a slash of his longsword.

BOOM!

The collision of sword and fist created a shocking scene as both men were forced back simultaneously.

This greatly startled Gu Mingwu. "Impossible! You’re clearly just a peak Third Rank Overlord, so what’s with your Combat Power? How is it not lower than mine?"

Ye Feng simply smiled faintly, offering no answer.

This was because of the Cultivation Technique Yang Qi had given him. The change was as profound as a complete rebirth. It was far superior to the technique he had previously practiced and now seemed even stronger than Gu Mingwu’s. He had truly stumbled upon a priceless treasure.
