Chapter 2060: Slaughter
"You can understand it that way!" A calm voice came from beneath the black veil, causing the expressions of those young members of the Ji Clan to suddenly stiffen. They involuntarily rose slightly and walked toward Lin Feng. In an instant, waves of pressure descended upon Lin Feng. The other patrons in the tavern quickly distanced themselves from Lin Feng's position, muttering to themselves that this man was far too bold.
"Your cultivation is not weak, sir. I, Ji, would like to test your skills and see what gives you the right to provoke my Ji Clan." A man stood before Lin Feng, speaking calmly. Whether it was the enfeoffed king Ji Shang being defeated by Lin Feng or the Hundred Emperors Battle against Lin Feng in the past, both were humiliations for the Ji Clan. And now, this man dared to mock them openly in the tavern.
"Ji Clan members!" As Lin Feng heard these words, the wine table before him suddenly emitted a crisp cracking sound and was directly torn to shreds. The pupils behind the veil burst forth with a chilling light that made one's heart tremble.
Youyou had been blasted so miserably by the Saint Emperor of the Ji Clan. Three sieges... the Ji Clan. He would make the destruction of the Ji Clan a necessary path on his martial journey.
Standing up, Lin Feng took a step forward. The Ji Clan member felt the pressure emanating from Lin Feng and experienced an inexplicable fear, a sense of dread he couldn't articulate.
Suddenly, a pair of pitch-black hands extended from beneath the black robe, wreathed in traces of demonic might. The Ji Clan expert's expression hardened, and he let out a fierce roar. A terrifying fist light, carrying an overwhelming force, shot forward like a roaring azure dragon, as if a demonic dragon danced forward, crashing toward the dark fist light, seemingly intent on devouring it entirely.
"Crack!" A crisp sound of bones breaking rang out. The man's arm was directly torn apart. The dark demonic fist continued forward, unstoppable, and pierced straight through his heart. A booming explosion echoed, as if his heart had burst. The man's eyes rolled back, his face deathly pale. His soul drifted out from his body, but the fist light lifted and slashed out, as if a sword light whistled past, shattering the ethereal soul.
The patrons of the tavern froze in place, their hearts pounding violently. What a ruthless bastard—he had directly killed a member of the Ji Clan.
The faces of the several young Ji Clan members stiffened with ugliness, a terrifying killing intent radiating from them. Someone had dared to kill a member of the ancient saint clan, the Ji Clan, on their own turf.
Lin Feng, of course, dared. And not just one—he would kill high-rank emperors, mid-rank emperors, and low-rank emperors alike. When dealing with the Ji Clan, would he care about realms or about bullying the weak?
Every time he recalled the Ji Clan Saint Emperor in the void repeatedly crushing and obliterating those bodies that were Youyou's, the obsession for slaughter in his heart grew stronger, as if he wanted to annihilate the world and raze the Ji Clan to the ground.
Thus, Lin Feng showed no mercy. Without hesitation, he continued to throw punches. Each fist light killed one young member. Soon, the ground was littered with cold corpses, and the surrounding crowd felt a chill seeping through their bodies. This man was a madman, a reckless madman, and also a terrifyingly powerful one. Whether high-rank emperor or mid-rank emperor, no one could withstand a single punch from him. It gave the illusion that the martial emperors of the ancient saint clan, the Ji Clan, were so weak.
Of course, Lin Feng spared one life. Standing before this man, he said in a low voice, "The Ji Clan members are truly this weak. Go back now and tell Ji Shang that someone thinks he disgraces the title of enfeoffed king and wants his head. Tell him to come here."
With that, Lin Feng kicked out, and the man's body smashed through the tavern wall, flying into the distance.
"He wants to challenge Ji Shang."
"Someone is challenging Ji Shang, a high-rank emperor. Is another figure like Chu Chunqiu and Lin Feng about to appear? Quickly, notify the clan."
As the crowd heard Lin Feng's words, the tavern erupted into chaos. So, this man had killed Ji Clan members here to lure Ji Shang into battle.
"This man is incredibly strong. He killed a high-rank emperor of the Ji Clan with one punch. I wonder who he is and if he has the strength to fight Ji Shang."
"Since he dares to challenge Ji Shang, he must have the confidence. His strength won't be weak. And since he dares to kill Ji Clan members directly, he must be from an ancient saint clan as well." The crowd speculated. News spread quickly, and at this rate, the Ji Clan should have already received word: someone had killed their members and wanted to fight Ji Shang.
Lin Feng sat quietly in the tavern, very calm, as if the people he killed weren't from the Ji Clan at all. He knew well that if he revealed himself as Lin Feng, the Ji Clan would never let Ji Shang come out. Over a year ago, eight experts had joined hands to attack him, and he had killed five of them. The Ji Clan would certainly protect Ji Shang. So, he came here, killed people, and provoked them. The first person he wanted to kill was the enfeoffed king of the Ji Clan, Ji Shang.
Soon, the Ji Clan arrived. A terrifying pressure enveloped the tavern, the suffocating force making many tremble. This was imperial might. The Ji Clan had sent an emperor-level expert.
"Come out." A calm voice poured down from above the tavern, the sound waves penetrating the eardrums of the crowd. They knew who was being addressed, and their gazes turned to Lin Feng.
But when the crowd looked at Lin Feng, he acted as if he hadn't heard the voice, continuing to drink as if he were the only one in the tavern. Clearly, he was ignoring the command.
Just then, the tavern began to tremble, as if it might collapse at any moment. The crowd quickly flashed out, leaving only Lin Feng inside the vast establishment.
With a loud crash, the tavern collapsed from top to bottom, turning into rubble. Yet in the void, the man continued to drink, his wine table still intact.
"Who are you?" The Ji Clan had sent many people, led by an emperor-level expert. He looked at Lin Feng, his expression cold. He had been in a bad mood lately. A few days ago, he had failed again in comprehending the great dao, lowering his status in the Ji Clan, even below many martial emperors. Hearing that someone treated the Ji Clan as nothing, he had come with some powerful martial emperors of the clan.
"Where is Ji Shang?" Lin Feng asked calmly, still not turning to look at them. Ji Shang hadn't come, and Lin Feng was quite disappointed.
"In Holy City Central Continent, there are many who want to challenge Ji Shang every day. Does everyone have the right to see my Ji Clan's Ji Shang?" The emperor-level expert said coldly.
"A stray dog, with no glorious victories in recent years, losing again and again, yet your Ji Clan still treats him like this. No wonder your clan has fallen so low that you need to send Saint Emperors to deal with mere martial emperors." A mocking voice came from Lin Feng's mouth. The surrounding crowd had grown accustomed to this man's audacity, but they were curious about his identity. Who was he to be so bold?
As Lin Feng's words fell, the chill in the void intensified. Imperial might spread, enveloping the heavens and earth. The martial emperors behind the emperor-level expert had cold expressions, their battle intent surging, as if it might erupt at any moment.
"Ji Fenglie, go kill him." The Ji Clan emperor said to a man beside him.
"Ji Fenglie, the rising youth of the Ji Clan. He has comprehended the Ji Clan's Collapse Dao and is extremely powerful. He has already made it onto the Emperor's List. Let's see if this man can fight Ji Fenglie."
The crowd felt a sense of familiarity at the name. Martial emperors who had comprehended the dao and those who hadn't were on completely different levels of combat power. The black-robed man hadn't released his dao might yet. They wondered if he had also comprehended the dao. If not, he probably wouldn't dare to challenge Ji Shang.
Ji Fenglie stepped forward. The void trembled, and the Collapse Dao radiated outward. The surrounding space seemed on the verge of collapse. A terrifying flaming gale rushed toward Lin Feng.
"Kill!" Ji Fenglie appeared before Lin Feng in an instant. The Collapse Dao might was terrifying. But at that moment, Lin Feng suddenly rose. The demonic qi on his arm seemed to pierce through heaven and earth, directly smashing toward Ji Fenglie.
"Crash!" A terrible explosive sound shook the void. The crowd froze, watching as Ji Fenglie's body exploded, demonic might wreaking havoc.
"This..."
"How is this possible? Ji Fenglie attacked with dao might, yet he was killed with one punch. That demonic law just now was terrifying. I wonder how powerful it was."
The crowd's hearts trembled. They hadn't even seen how Lin Feng did it. At that moment, Lin Feng moved. His body, wrapped in a gale, stepped forward and appeared before the Ji Clan emperor.
"Azure Dragon Roar!" The Ji Clan emperor roared, and an azure dragon seemed to charge out, its eternal power destroying everything. But Lin Feng charged straight at the dragon, blasting through its head. The supreme force made anyone's heart tremble.
"Kill!" The emperor's attack was as fast as lightning. A terrifying trajectory appeared in the void, as if several azure dragons simultaneously tore at Lin Feng.
But at that moment, the demonic intent erupting from Lin Feng seemed even stronger than the emperor's law, as if it would destroy everything. His fist tore toward the opponent.
"How is this possible? How can a martial emperor have such powerful laws and strength?" The emperor exclaimed in shock. He roared, and beams of azure dragon light tried to cut through the space. But the supreme force could destroy everything. All resistance seemed futile. Lin Feng's fist finally struck the opponent. A thunderous boom echoed in the hearts of the crowd. The emperor's body exploded into pieces!
