# Chapter 149: Drawing the Sword, Staining It with Blood
Seeing Meng Qing's figure, the crowd's gazes froze, appearing somewhat startled and uncertain.
The man in the blue long robe let out a cold laugh, his aura growing even more frigid. Strands of white light shimmered and blazed upon his body, dazzling to the extreme.
"Stop."
At that moment, a furious shout rang out from afar, causing the hearts of the crowd to tremble. This voice pierced straight into their lungs and souls, as if making their very spirits quake.
The man in the blue long robe also halted in his steps, his body stopping as he turned around. He saw a figure flickering over, arriving before him in an instant.
"Vice Dean."
Everyone's gazes trembled. It was actually the Vice Dean himself who had come.
"Dean Long." The man in the blue long robe called out respectfully, not daring to act recklessly.
"Withdraw."
Dean Long shouted coldly and indifferently. The man in the blue long robe's expression stiffened, and the crowd couldn't help but feel shaken inside.
It seemed the Vice Dean was being quite ungracious toward the teacher. Lin Feng might truly be someone the Dean had personally approved for entry into the academy, even granting him a privilege token.
"Yes." The man in the blue long robe trembled as he withdrew, his face ugly.
Dean Long turned his gaze, landing on Lin Feng, and smiled: "I have my own plans regarding this matter. You should go back first."
"Go back first?"
Everyone was stunned. Indeed, the Vice Dean valued Lin Feng greatly. With this simple sentence, he had removed Lin Feng from this matter. With the Vice Dean taking charge, they fully believed that even the blue-robed middle-aged man wouldn't dare touch Lin Feng anymore.
The blue-robed middle-aged man also frowned, puzzled. Could Lin Feng have some background? For the sake of a mere Lin Feng, Dean Long was willing to disregard his face. Although his status was lower than Dean Long's, didn't the other party consider the attitude of the people behind him?
Leaving others aside, even Lin Feng himself couldn't understand why the Vice Dean treated him this way.
Lin Feng absolutely did not know the Vice Dean, nor did he know anyone of status in the Imperial City. If he had to force a connection, he actually had enmity with quite a few people.
That day outside the Heavenly One Academy, Dean Long had personally invited him, treated him with such courtesy, granted him a privilege token, and rebuked academy teachers several times for his sake. This completely defied common sense, leaving Lin Feng unable to understand.
Since he couldn't understand, Lin Feng didn't want to dwell on it. When the time came for him to know, he would naturally understand.
"Vice Dean, there are a few words I wonder if I should say or not."
Lin Feng slightly shook his head, not following the other's words to go back directly.
"Speak your mind." Dean Long nodded in agreement.
"The Heavenly One Academy has both good and bad mixed together. Some people disregard the academy's dignity and are unworthy of being academy teachers."
Lin Feng spoke calmly, his words sharp. The crowd's gazes instantly fell upon the man in the blue long robe. Lin Feng's words were clearly directed at him.
"Dean, I, Lin Feng, am not someone who doesn't know what's good for me. I will bear the consequences of what I did in the Prison Fight Arena myself. I don't need some people pointing fingers and acting as outsiders' lackeys." Lin Feng continued speaking: "I won't pursue today's matter. However, if in the future, someone is so shameless as to try to deal with me, and I, Lin Feng, end up doing something, I hope the Vice Dean will forgive me."
"This guy, so arrogant. Does he think he can deal with the academy's teachers?"
"Such big talk."
Many voices arose in the crowd, all feeling that Lin Feng was too arrogant. Even the Vice Dean was stunned, somewhat surprised by Lin Feng's words.
Lin Feng clearly didn't care what everyone was thinking, nor did he want to know. Turning his gaze, his eyes landed on the blue-robed middle-aged man, and he said coldly: "You, looking for me?"
"Yes." The blue-robed middle-aged man nodded indifferently, looking at Lin Feng with a hint of mockery in his gaze.
"Since you're looking for me, I'm standing right here now. What are you waiting for?"
Lin Feng's voice remained calm, making the crowd wonder where Lin Feng's confidence came from.
Seeing Lin Feng's self-assurance, the blue-robed middle-aged man suddenly revealed a strange smile. Very good. If Lin Feng had listened to Dean Long and gone back, he really couldn't have done anything to Lin Feng. But Lin Feng hadn't done that, and had even rejected Dean Long's goodwill. Lin Feng was seeking death.
"Seize him."
The blue-robed middle-aged man said indifferently. Immediately, two figures stepped forward, their bodies trembling slightly as they shot toward Lin Feng in an instant, their auras icy cold.
Seeing the two approach, Lin Feng didn't move at all. He stood there, his gaze calm.
At this moment, Meng Qing's figure stepped forward again. Instantly, a freezing aura suddenly spread out, frosting heaven and earth. The two who had reached Lin Feng's front stiffened all over, feeling cold penetrating to their bones.
Meng Qing's palm gently pushed forward. The freezing momentum was unstoppable. In an instant, dazzling ice crystals spread up along the arms of those two, climbing upward. Soon, the two figures in front of Lin Feng were completely frozen there, their entire bodies turned into blocks of ice, motionless.
Waving her hand, the two ice blocks crashed to the ground with crisp sounds. Whether the frozen two were dead or alive, no one knew.
"So strong."
The crowd's hearts trembled violently. Two experts, in just one move, had been completely frozen. No wonder that woman had blocked Lin Feng's front earlier. Her strength was actually so terrifying.
"Mysterious Martial Realm."
Both Dean Long and the blue-robed middle-aged man's pupils slightly contracted. This woman had a holy aura, her figure graceful, and she should be young. She had only been silently following Lin Feng without speaking, but her strength was actually so astonishing.
That casual strike just now could only have been executed by an expert of the Mysterious Martial Realm, instantly freezing and killing two experts.
As for the man in the blue long robe, his expression stiffened. If he had made a move against Lin Feng earlier...
No wonder Lin Feng's tone had been so arrogant. He actually had a Mysterious Martial Realm expert following him. Too terrifying. At this moment, the crowd was even guessing just what kind of powerful background Lin Feng had to be so valued by Dean Long, and to have such a strong and beautiful woman following him.
"Ever since I, Lin Feng, stepped out of the Prison Fight Arena, I made a silent decision in my heart: from today onward, if I see any member of the Bai Clan, as long as I have the ability, I will kill every single one I see."
Lin Feng spat out an icy cold voice from his mouth, causing the hearts of the Bai Clan members to tremble slightly. Meng Qing also understood Lin Feng's meaning. Her graceful figure moved like a dancing white lotus, without any words, directly attacking toward the Bai Clan members.
Heaven and earth, faint frost appeared. All the Bai Clan members felt an unparalleled chill enveloping their bodies. Before she even arrived, white frost and snow had already covered them.
Meng Qing lightly waved a palm, the palm wind sweeping past. The freezing intent spread out. In an instant, the Bai Clan members were all covered in frost, their bodies shivering uncontrollably from the cold.
For martial artists, even those at the Qi Martial Realm could be impervious to cold and heat. Yet at this moment, numerous Spirit Martial Realm experts were actually shivering from the cold, their bodies trembling continuously. This showed just how fierce the cold contained in that palm wind was.
"Ha!"
The blue-robed middle-aged man could no longer remain calm. His figure moved like the wind. Behind him, an extremely powerful gale shot straight into the clouds, and his body also transformed into a hurricane, sweeping toward Meng Qing.
Meng Qing unhurriedly, casually slapped out a palm. Layers of ice spread out, and ice crystals appeared in the space, directly freezing the incoming hurricane.
"Crack, crack..."
The sound of ice crystals breaking continuously rang out. Under that hurricane, the ice crystals kept shattering and breaking apart.
Meng Qing's hand traced in the void. Instantly, two ice crystals appeared in the empty space, extremely sharp, directly slashing toward that hurricane.
At this moment, Lin Feng held a long sword, his gaze cold. His body trembled slightly, instantly arriving among the still-shivering Bai Clan members.
"Sword of Life-Seizing."
Lin Feng lightly shouted. Dazzling life-seizing light flashed out. Blood blossomed in the space. With just one sword strike, several people were slain on the spot.
Just as Lin Feng had said, whenever he saw members of the Bai Clan, as soon as he had an opportunity, he would kill every one he saw, showing no mercy.
Seeing this brutal slaughter, the crowd was all stunned. The indiscriminate-killing middle-aged man had come in force, demanding that the Heavenly One Academy hand over Lin Feng and the two slaves. But the result was so ironic. Lin Feng had walked out openly and honestly, carrying extreme arrogance, mercilessly slaughtering the Bai Clan members who had come in force.
Drawing the sword, staining it with blood. For whom was this rage?
