Free Web NovelChapter 196: Chapter 195: Directly Crush Him?
The authority of an Inspector was not exactly vast, but it was not insignificant either.
Although an Inspector did not control the resources of an entire peak like a Cave Master, they reported directly to the Four Great Elders of the Medicine King Hall.
They could report directly to the Four Great Elders.
According to Qin Feng’s analogy, they were like the eunuchs who served the Emperor, while the various Cave Masters were the regional dukes. A eunuch might be a castrated man, useless in most respects, but he controlled the one channel all officials and ministers had to the Emperor.
If such a eunuch wanted to slander one of the dukes, it would be laughably easy.
It was for this reason that Qin Feng had decided to treat him with courtesy. But that did not mean he was afraid.
Evidently, Wei Qinghuang had refused the courtesy offered, so Qin Feng pushed right back.
Qin Feng’s firm stance made Wei Qinghuang’s expression turn exceptionally ugly. ’A mere Cave Master at the Martial Arts Ninth Layer Heaven Realm, not even in the Condensing Vein Realm, dares to defy me!’
’Does this Qin Feng really think his position as Cave Master is secure?’
Wei Qinghuang’s face was cold and sinister, his gaze menacing. "Qin Feng, I’m afraid this matter is not up to you today. Your Heavenly Red Peak lost Spirit Medicines; this is a grave mistake. If you, the Cave Master, don’t give the Medicine King Hall a clear explanation, I fear today will be your last as the Cave Master of Bishui Cave!"
Qin Feng let out a frosty laugh. "The loss of Spirit Medicines from my cave is my own affair. It has nothing to do with you, does it? If I recall correctly, you Inspectors are only responsible for documenting the condition of Spirit Medicines. I don’t believe you have the authority to question me!"
Wei Qinghuang’s expression shifted slightly, his face turning colder. Qin Feng was right; an Inspector truly did not have the authority to hold a Cave Master accountable.
However, it was not without precedent. Inspectors held high and influential positions, reporting directly to the Four Great Elders. Even if one were to apprehend a Cave Master on the spot, it would not be considered overstepping their bounds.
Let alone one who was merely at the Martial Arts Ninth Layer Heaven!
’A mere ant, and he really thinks he’s some great Cave Master!’
A sinister glint flashed in his eyes. Wei Qinghuang gazed at Qin Feng with an icy stare, as if looking at a dead man.
"Qin Feng, enough talk. Surrender without a fight and come with me to the Medicine King Hall!"
Qin Feng’s eyes narrowed. "It seems you intend to take me by force? What impressive authority you Inspectors have!"
Wei Qinghuang’s gaze was frosty, as if looking at an ant. "Master Qin, I am giving you a chance. Otherwise, I’ll just crush you to death!" fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
Qin Feng’s gaze turned cold. He fell completely silent.
Seeing Qin Feng fall silent, Eighth Master, who was watching from a nearby rock, could not hold back any longer. "CAW CAW! Brother Feng, why aren’t you talking? Insult him! Beat him up!"
"Oh, right, Brother Feng said this expression is called ’Daddy can’t be bothered with you’!"
Wei Qinghuang’s expression changed instantly. He shot a venomous glance at the chattering Eighth Master on the rock.
Eighth Master let out a shriek. "So fierce! Don’t look at your daddy like that!"
’Shameless! Utterly shameless!’
A strange smile tugged at the corner of Qin Feng’s mouth. Qin Feng swore he had never taught Eighth Master those words.
Wei Qinghuang’s eyes turned ice-cold. A subtle, formless glint of cold light flashed and instantly enveloped Eighth Master.
Eighth Master shrieked. "CAW CAW! He’s killing a bird! He’s killing a bird! Brother Feng, help me!"
Qin Feng’s figure had already appeared in front of Eighth Master. He slashed his Beiming Divine Water Sword, and a peerless ray of cold light shot toward Wei Qinghuang.
Wei Qinghuang’s expression changed slightly. His figure flashed like a phantom, retreating several hundred paces in an instant.
RUMBLE!
The sword light streaked past, crashing into the Celestial Pool Lake and tearing a gash in its surface.
Incredibly, the gash it created refused to close. The lake water on either side simply flowed around the opening.
"The Third Realm of the Sword Dao, Heavenly Dao Formless!" A faint, strange look flashed across Wei Qinghuang’s face, but his eyes were filled with disdain.
The gash in the lake contained a trace of Sword Qi. As long as the Sword Qi did not dissipate, the water could not merge.
"Phew! You scared your daddy to death! How dare you try to assassinate your daddy! Brother Feng, beat this son of a turtle to death for me!"
Eighth Master was fuming. Standing on the rock, he wiped his eyes with his fleshy wings, utterly exasperated.
Wei Qinghuang’s face turned pale with rage. He wished he could chop this foul-mouthed, shameless bird to pieces right then and there.
Qin Feng shot a glance at Eighth Master and snorted coldly. Eighth Master immediately shut his beak.
Wei Qinghuang stared at the black-robed youth with exceptional coldness.
"No one can save you today!"
Qin Feng’s voice was just as cold. "To move against a Cave Master so brazenly, aren’t you afraid the Medicine King Hall will hold you accountable?"
"Cave Master, you think too highly of yourself. You’re just an ant that I can kill whenever I please! As for answering to the Medicine King Hall, you need not worry about that either. I am a powerful expert who serves the Four Great Elders. Killing a traitor who intends to betray the All Stars Academy is my duty!"
Wei Qinghuang was like a giant beast from the Barbaric Wilderness. The Void Essence Qi he emanated reached a terrifying level, causing the very void to twist and distort.
With a cold expression, Wei Qinghuang thrust a palm thunderously down at Qin Feng.
RUMBLE!
A palm descended, blanketing Qin Feng. It seemed to move slowly, yet Qin Feng had the inescapable feeling that he could not dodge it. This was no illusion; Wei Qinghuang was simply too strong.
This one palm strike was enough to make the earth collapse!
A sneer appeared on Wei Qinghuang’s face. He was confident that this palm strike was enough to obliterate Qin Feng.
Even if Qin Feng was an Elder of the Cyan Dragon Academy, even if he possessed a High-level Spirit Sword that allowed him to kill foes above his realm!
’But in the face of absolute power, all of that is just trash!’
With his very first move, Wei Qinghuang intended to deliver a killing blow to Qin Feng.
Enveloped by the terrifying palm wind, feeling as though he were being targeted by the God of Death, every one of Qin Feng’s forty-eight thousand pores trembled. freewёbnoνel.com
’The gap in power is too vast!’
A sharp glint erupted in his eyes. The Innate Primordial True Qi inside him transformed into Innate Primordial Sword Qi as Qin Feng gripped his Beiming Divine Water Sword.
The Innate Primordial Sword Qi circulated once, twice, three times, four times, five times! In an instant, the Sword Qi around Qin Feng reached its peak.
At that moment, a trace of horror appeared in Wei Qinghuang’s pupils. Qin Feng’s aura was now only slightly weaker than his own.
But it was not over. A ruthless look appeared in Qin Feng’s eyes as the Innate Primordial Sword Qi within him thundered into an unprecedented sixth circulation.
A tangible blue sword light coursed through his meridians. Qin Feng forced it onward, wave after wave of Sword Qi battering his energy channels. The pain made his face twist in agony.
PFFT! PFFT!
The Sword Qi burst through his meridians. Like a leaking teapot, Qin Feng sprayed jets of blood that stained his robes red.
Qin Feng’s eyes were icy, devoid of any warmth. In that instant, the aura around him exploded once more, climbing to an unprecedented height.
The sixth sword of the Innate Primordial Tide Extinction Sword!
With a single ZING, the sword sang as if suddenly waking from a long slumber, letting out a joyous roar. A beam of sword light, as graceful and powerful as a dragon, flew from its sheath. The stunningly sharp light instantly flooded the lakeside, hurtling straight for Wei Qinghuang.
Sword Qi crisscrossed the air, and a single flash of the blade brought a biting chill!
Unstoppably, the sword light tore directly through Wei Qinghuang’s palm energy, which had been powerful enough to shatter mountains and rivers!
In the blink of an eye, it was right in front of Wei Qinghuang!
Wei Qinghuang’s face changed drastically!
