Chapter 59: That Bastard Lin Feng
"Kneel to me three times and kowtow nine times, beg for my forgiveness, and perhaps I'll be merciful and let you off," Liu Fei said, her voice cold.
"Three kneels and nine kowtows? Merciful?" Lin Feng chuckled and shook his head. "You should leave. I won't make things difficult for you."
After several encounters, Lin Feng knew this woman was arrogant and domineering, but she still had her own bottom line. Just like last time when the inner disciple Yu Hao appeared—if Liu Fei had nodded, Yu Hao would have immediately killed him, but she didn't. And at the foot of the mountain, he believed that with a single command from Liu Fei, those Crimson Blood Iron Cavalry would have trampled him flat. Yet Liu Fei only said that he and she were from the same sect, again not using the opportunity to kill him.
So Lin Feng thought that while this woman was quite detestable, she wasn't exactly malicious. Perhaps she really believed that his first visit here wasn't a coincidence, but rather that he had come to spy on her.
"Not make things difficult for you?" Liu Fei stared at Lin Feng. This scoundrel was quite confident.
"This time when I returned home, my father bestowed upon me the Silver Profound Bow. I'll use you to test my arrows."
Liu Fei took down the silver-white bow strapped to her back. It was extremely dazzling, faintly reflecting light.
Taking an arrow, stepping forward, bending at the waist, drawing the bow—the movements were fluid and seamless. Paired with Liu Fei's form-fitting attire and perfect figure, the action was filled with aesthetic beauty. But beneath that beauty lurked killing intent.
"Whoosh!"
The arrow left the bowstring, like a fiery streak of light, arriving in an instant. Lin Feng's gaze sharpened as his body twisted sharply. The arrow grazed past his shoulder, unbelievably fast.
"Boom, rumble."
The stone wall behind Lin Feng shook with rumbling sounds as rocks split and cracked. The power of a single arrow was formidable indeed.
"Oh?" Lin Feng raised an eyebrow. Spirit Martial Realm. So Liu Fei had stepped into the Spirit Martial Realm. No wonder she dared to come and settle scores with him.
This woman was about the same age as him, yet she had also entered the Spirit Martial Realm. Her talent was quite outstanding, on par with Lin Qian and Nalan Feng. Arrogance was inevitable. Moreover, Liu Fei's status and position were probably even more noble than Nalan Feng's and Lin Qian's. This was evident from those Crimson Blood Iron Cavalry.
"Arrow cultivators are truly terrifying." The speed of arrows was simply too fast. It was said that as one's strength increased, powerful arrow cultivators could shoot arrows at speeds surpassing sound. This meant that the arrow would have already struck you before you even heard the sound. If used for a sneak attack, taking a life would be as easy as turning one's hand.
Arrow cultivators were the most fearsome and awe-inspiring in the military.
Unfortunately, Liu Fei's strength wasn't enough yet. For him, this was still far from sufficient.
"Lucky," Liu Fei said, seeing Lin Feng dodge. She nocked another arrow onto the bowstring. "I'll give you one more chance."
"No need. I wasn't wrong in the first place, so why apologize, let alone kneel?" Lin Feng shook his head, lifting his foot and walking toward Liu Fei.
"Courting death!" Liu Fei shouted angrily, nocking another arrow. The arrow shot through the air.
"Eight Wastelands Palm."
Lin Feng raised his hand and waved. Three palm prints smashed out violently, colliding with the arrow and instantly causing it to fall powerlessly. Overwhelmingly domineering.
"Profound Extreme martial skill, Eight Wastelands Palm. Spirit Martial Realm." Liu Fei's heart trembled. Seeing Lin Feng casually use the Eight Wastelands Palm, she immediately understood that Lin Feng had also stepped into the Spirit Martial Realm. No wonder he was so reckless.
Turning her body, Liu Fei actually ran wildly in the opposite direction from Lin Feng, moving at incredible speed.
Just as Lin Feng was wondering what was happening, he saw Liu Fei suddenly bend backward, her body forming a perfect arched curve before his eyes, yet still concealing fierce killing intent.
"Galloping Arrow."
The arrow whistled, faster and stronger than before.
Lin Feng remained fearless, still striding forward with his head held high. The Eight Wastelands Palm smashed out violently. This time, four palm prints flew from Lin Feng's hand.
"Damn it, what level has this guy trained the Eight Wastelands Palm to?" Liu Fei cursed inwardly. She released her martial soul. A dazzling golden arrow martial soul materialized. Unlike last time, three bows now appeared behind Liu Fei, complete with arrows, arranged in a triangular formation, exuding a heart-shaking aura.
Clearly, Liu Fei's martial soul had also undergone a lifebound awakening.
Rushing toward Lin Feng, Liu Fei leaped into the air, her body soaring upward.
High in the air, all three bows of her arrow martial soul aimed at Lin Feng. At the same time, three arrows appeared on the Silver Profound Bow in her hand—three illusory arrows and three real arrows.
"Meteor Shower, Falling Moon."
Liu Fei's expression was solemn. Her body seemed to pause briefly in midair. Six arrows tore through the void, the very space seeming to tremble.
An arrow martial soul was undoubtedly a powerful offensive martial soul. It could not only lock onto souls but also destroy bodies.
In that moment, Lin Feng felt as if his soul was locked onto, sensing an extremely intense pressure.
"What a domineering arrow cultivator."
Lin Feng thought to himself. Both palms struck out simultaneously, pushing the Eight Wastelands Palm to its limit. Fourteen destructive palm prints filled the sky, charging toward the incoming arrows.
"Boom, crack!"
Explosive sounds continuously rang out in the space. A turbulent current swept through, causing Lin Feng's clothes to flutter.
When the smoke cleared, Liu Fei's figure reappeared. She was slightly crouched, her full chest heaving as she breathed heavily, a stirring sight.
"How can he be this strong?" Liu Fei saw Lin Feng completely unharmed, his robes fluttering, and was shocked inside. After breaking through to the Spirit Martial Realm, her father had personally guided her in archery. Through thousands of refinements and shooting two thousand arrows daily to strengthen her inner breath, she had developed tremendous explosive power. She could now simultaneously use the Silver Profound Bow and her martial soul arrows, firing six arrows at once with terrifying, unparalleled power.
Even some elite Spirit Martial Realm First Layer soldiers in the military found it hard to withstand. But Lin Feng had blocked it. She had lost again.
Countless palm prints. The Eight Wastelands Palm at the peak of the seventh layer, both palms striking simultaneously. Was this guy really only at the Spirit Martial Realm First Layer? How could his talent in martial skills be so monstrous?
Seeing Lin Feng walking toward her with a half-smile, Liu Fei's heart jolted. She became alert. "What do you want to do?"
"Uh..." Lin Feng was speechless. What kind of person did this woman take him for? She had made this kind of expression several times. Especially since she was so stunningly beautiful. If Lin Feng didn't have a strong will, he might have developed some improper thoughts.
His gaze casually swept over Liu Fei's full figure. Lin Feng smirked. "What do you think I want to do?"
"You..." Liu Fei's face turned pale. Seeing Lin Feng getting closer, she took an arrow from her back and pointed it at her own neck. Her gaze was icy but resolute.
Lin Feng, who had intended to tease Liu Fei a bit, was stunned. He hadn't expected this woman to do something like this. He couldn't help but feel a bit speechless.
"If I had any improper intentions toward you, I wouldn't have let you off last time."
Lin Feng said helplessly. Did he really look like a lecher?
Hearing this, Liu Fei's heart relaxed, and the hand holding the arrow dropped.
"If you want this place so badly, I'll return it to you. Just don't come looking for trouble with me anymore." Lin Feng continued forward. When he reached Liu Fei's side, he paused.
Turning his head to look at Liu Fei, Lin Feng silently marveled at how good this world's women's skin was—so smooth it seemed it would break at a touch.
Reaching out his finger, under Liu Fei's stunned gaze, Lin Feng flicked her delicate, smooth cheek and chuckled softly. "I find you quite adorable."
With that, Lin Feng stepped into the One-Line Sky.
Liu Fei was frozen for several seconds before finally exploding.
"Ah... you bastard..."
Walking through the One-Line Sky, Lin Feng felt the stone walls on both sides tremble. He covered his ears and rolled his eyes. Did she have to react so strongly? That resentful voice sent chills down his spine.
"It was just a touch on the cheek."
A bright, pure smile appeared on Lin Feng's face again, like a carefree youth. The world was so cold and dull; occasionally, one had to relax a little.
