Chapter 37: Chapter 36: Cannot Withstand a Single Move
Objectively speaking, Yu Yao was truly stunning. Her tall, graceful figure, her long, slender legs, and especially her foxy gaze and fiery red lips—everything about her exuded an alluring aura.
But looking at this woman, Qin Feng felt as disgusted as if he had swallowed a dead fly.
’So, who’s the one actually getting cheated on here?’
Qin Feng’s eyes widened, feeling as though he’d just been cuckolded. The sensation put him in a terrible mood, so with a loud THUD, he sent the loud-mouthed, dark-faced man flying with a single kick.
The girl in pink’s expression darkened. Qin Feng’s reaction was beyond what she had imagined. It wasn’t that she’d never seen him before. Every time he saw her, he was always meek and submissive, blushing so hard he couldn’t even muster the courage to look her in the eye. He was a complete coward.
But now, not only did he dare to speak loudly to her, he even dared to taunt and insult her. For a moment, she was so furious her face flushed red, and a cold, murderous intent flickered in her eyes.
"So you’re that waste of a Ninth Young Master from the Qin Family, Qin Feng!" the young man beside her spoke up. He had a smile on his face, but his eyes held a sharpness like a sword’s edge as he demanded, "Trash aptitude, but you’ve got some nerve. How dare you speak to my Yaoyao like that!" freewebnσvel.cѳm
"And who are you? Just the other man, and you’re still talking so big!" Qin Feng retorted with a disgruntled sneer.
Yu Yao’s delicate brows furrowed. She stared coldly at Qin Feng and said with disdain, "Qin Feng, who’s the other man and who’s the whore? I, Yu Yao, never agreed to this marriage with your Qin Family. Don’t be so full of yourself. Who do you think you are? You’re nothing but a waste. How could you possibly be worthy of me? My future husband, even if he isn’t a peerless prodigy of his generation, will at least be a world-class hero who can command an entire region. He will absolutely not be a waste like you!"
"As for Qin Fang, he’s just a self-proclaimed genius. The only reason we accepted Qin Qingshan’s proposal was as a matter of convenience for my Yu Family. But after today, the Qin Family of Shanghe Town will cease to exist in this region! And Qin Fang will disappear too!"
At the mention of Qin Fang, a hint of gravity touched the corner of her eyes, but she quickly dismissed it with a smile. Her beautiful, tender gaze then fell upon the handsome, green-robed youth beside her.
"As for him..."
Yu Yao’s disgust for Qin Feng vanished, replaced by a radiant sparkle in her gentle eyes. A flash of pride crossed her face as she elegantly lifted her chin and said, "This is Ning Yutang, a genius from the Ning Family of Sanhe Town. His status is something a waste like you could never hope to compare to!"
"He’s a genius, and I’m a waste?" Qin Feng pointed at Ning Yutang, who wore a calm, superior smile, and began to laugh.
Yu Yao’s eyes flashed as she spoke with a touch of pride, "That’s right. Yutang is a true genius. Not even fifteen, and he has already broken through to the Martial Arts Fifth Layer Heaven and condensed the Inner Breath Great Cycle. Even among the top geniuses in Mountain and River City, he would be considered one of the best. And what is your Qin Family’s Qin Fang? At fifteen, he hasn’t even broken through to the Martial Arts Third Heaven. He’s not even fit to carry Yutang’s shoes!"
"As for you?" A look of profound disgust flashed in Yu Yao’s eyes as she gave a small, derisive smile. The contempt in her expression was self-evident.
"Me?" Qin Feng blinked, looking at the cold, arrogant youth in green and then at Yu Yao, who wore an expression that screamed, ’I have excellent taste.’ He suddenly broke into a wide grin. "Go on, tell me. What about me?"
Qin Shou, who had returned at some point, saw the strange smile on Qin Feng’s face and immediately thought, ’The Devil is smiling again. Something bad is about to happen!’
"You!" Yu Yao sneered, speaking bluntly. "You’re nothing but mud on the ground, destined to be trampled underfoot forever. A good-for-nothing waste of space just waiting to die. You aren’t even worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as Yutang!"
Yu Yao couldn’t be bothered to waste her breath on Qin Feng. In her eyes, Ning Yutang’s future was destined to be spectacular; he would even reach levels that the Yu Family Patriarch had never touched. He was a great figure in the making. What was Qin Feng? Just a waste. She couldn’t be bothered to even acknowledge someone like him.
"Yaoyao, don’t mind this waste. Since he’s discovered our relationship, he must die today!" A cold, murderous aura spread across Ning Yutang’s handsome face, and a cruel glint flashed in his eyes.
Two figures landed on either side of the path, blocking Qin Feng and Qin Shou’s way. Their eyes were filled with a vicious, scrutinizing killing intent, as if they were already looking at corpses.
Qin Feng gave a dry cough, a hint of self-mockery in his expression. ’I’m such a failure,’ he thought, ’to be looked down on so much by my own fiancée.’
But when he saw Yu Yao’s gaze, as gentle as water, constantly landing on Ning Yutang, a chill spread across his face. His smile vanished. He lifted his head, his gaze becoming as sharp as a peerless blade.
His voice was cold as he said, "Yu Yao, I don’t care what your motives are—whether you’re a social climber or just doing it for personal gain. Since you are my betrothed wife, you are not allowed to be unfaithful. I, Qin Feng, can wrong you, but you cannot wrong me! I will settle this score with you later."
As Yu Yao stared in shock and disbelief, Qin Feng pointed his longsword at Ning Yutang. "As for you, the other man, you dared to seduce Yu Yao and even plotted to kill me to cover your tracks. You are dead today!"
"On your own, you waste?" Ning Yutang found it so ridiculous he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Beside him, Yu Yao burst into laughter, her body trembling like a flower in the wind. The rapid rise and fall of her pale, smooth curves was, for a moment, a breathtaking sight.
Just as the two were mocking him, Qin Feng moved. Ever since his epiphany of the Clear Wind Realm, he had integrated its essence into his Movement Technique and Stepping Technique, making his speed unimaginably fast.
Like a wisp of clear wind, he appeared before Ning Yutang in an instant and threw a punch. Qin Feng held nothing back. This one punch contained the entirety of his cultivation, all of its power focused into a single point.
As the punch shot out, his figure seemed to be wreathed in a raging thunderstorm. The violent Fist Force sealed off all of Ning Yutang’s escape routes, leaving him nowhere to run.
Suddenly, before Ning Yutang could even wipe the smile from his face, the massive fist was already filling his vision. The stench of death washed over him. His eyes bulged in terror as he desperately suppressed the fear in his heart, his hands flying up to block Qin Feng’s punch with all his might.
He thrust out both palms. Though a hasty defense, they were filled with Hidden Force condensed from his Inner Breath. The palm strike was like a thunderbolt, and his hands, pushed to their limit, began to faintly glow. But he had still underestimated Qin Feng’s power. At full strength, Qin Feng’s Xuanwu’s Power could clash head-on with a Yunling Giant Tiger, an Ancient Relic Species. It could send even the Yunling Giant Tiger fleeing in pain, so how could a mere pair of hands possibly block it?
The violent Fist Force smashed into him. Ning Yutang only managed to block it for a few moments before a series of CRACKS echoed out—the sound of his bones shattering. Qin Feng’s fist broke through his guard with unstoppable momentum and slammed into Ning Yutang’s chest with a BANG. His body was launched high into the air like a cannonball, flying dozens of feet before crashing into the bushes more than a hundred feet away.
However, his last-ditch block had managed to dissipate some of the Fist Force, so Qin Feng hadn’t killed him in one blow. But the final strike that landed on his chest had shattered most of his ribs from the outside in. Even if he survived, he would be bedridden for the rest of his life.
Shock. Stupor. Utter disbelief. Ning Yutang, a genius of the Martial Arts Fifth Layer Heaven, couldn’t even withstand a single move from that "waste" and was now severely wounded! The world seemed to turn upside down in Yu Yao’s mind. Her face was ashen, and she was nearly catatonic.
