Chapter 435: Despising Everything
"What a stunning woman!"
The moment they saw this woman, the crowd all let out a sigh of admiration, their gazes locked onto her figure, unable to look away. They seemed to want to catch a glimpse of the face hidden beneath the bamboo hat and light veil, just as they wished to see Meng Qing remove her own veil to reveal her true appearance.
How could a woman who could evoke such a unanimous feeling from the crowd be ordinary?
Lin Feng was also stunned for a moment. Looking at this woman, his first impression was that he didn't recognize her—she was a complete stranger. But on second glance, he felt a hint of familiarity, as if he had seen her somewhere before.
A stranger he had never met, yet one who felt familiar—this sensation was extremely strange, beyond words.
Of course, there were also many people standing far away, separated by the crowd in the middle, who had no idea what was happening. They only knew that countless gazes were now fixed on one spot. Some people stood on tiptoe, trying to see what the crowd was looking at, but it seemed they no longer needed to.
One end of the bridge formed by the interwoven colorful ribbons had landed directly in front of the woman. Then, the surrounding crowd watched as she stepped onto the bridge, her body moving like an illusion as she glided through the air, beautiful as a dream.
Moments later, following this bridge, the woman arrived in midair, level with Lin Feng.
"Come out, all of you."
She uttered a faint voice, carrying a hint of softness. As her words fell, the ribbons danced, and figures from the ground stepped into the air, ascending into the void.
These figures were all women, their bodies descending around the mysterious woman, simultaneously forming an arc that surrounded the mysterious old man, as if deliberately arranged.
"Who are they?"
Many people silently questioned in their hearts. This group of suddenly appearing mysterious individuals—each one moving through the air as if walking on solid ground—were all very strong, and all women. How could this not spark curiosity among the crowd?
Down below, among the Yu Family crowd, many people's eyes trembled violently. It was them—or rather, her!
The leader of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, Teng Wuyao, also trembled slightly. Ever since receiving the warning last time, he had already understood. Seeing these people now, how could he not realize it was her?
The most shocked of all was the Yue Family direction, specifically the family head, Yue Qingshan.
The moment he saw this figure, his body suddenly stood up, trembling all over, his eyes carrying a terrifying sharpness.
This scene shocked the Yue Family members around him. Who could cause the usually steady-as-a-mountain Yue Qingshan to have such a strong reaction? Only one person could do this!
"It's her. She has appeared."
Everyone's gaze turned to the void, to this suddenly appearing mysterious woman.
"Chi chi!"
A soft sound came from the air, interrupting the crowd's thoughts. The old man tore apart several of the ribbons binding him, his body emerging again. Seeing the additional group of figures before him, he couldn't help but be stunned.
"Bind and kill!"
The mysterious woman said softly, her faint voice carrying a hint of coldness.
The moment her words fell, countless colorful ribbons danced in the air, shooting toward the old man.
At the same time, the women's figures trembled slightly. Six of them took positions in front of, behind, to the left, to the right, above, and below the old man—six directions, sealing him off.
A terrifying aura bloomed in the void. Endless colorful ribbons flew out from their bodies, tearing through space. Meanwhile, waves of dreamlike true essence power gathered in the air. In each of the six directions, a mass of white true essence floated and trembled.
Even more astonishing was that this trembling true essence seemed to connect with the colorful ribbons.
"Break for me!"
The old man's face darkened as he roared. His powerful force tore apart the colorful ribbons striking him, but every time he tore one, he felt a surge of surging true essence power tremble within his body.
"Bind!"
The women from all six directions simultaneously let out a low shout. In the void, six colorful ribbons tightly connected, also linking their true essence together.
"A formation!"
The crowd's eyes trembled. These six women were forming a formation, sharing their true essence power. As soon as they appeared, they directly targeted the old man.
"Kill!" The old man roared again, tearing apart the newly gathered colorful ribbons one by one. His body leaped upward, trying to break through the air. He too realized that the other side was forming a formation to deal with him.
"Boom!" A terrifying palm force struck out, heading upward.
But the moment the palm force was unleashed, a series of buzzing sounds emerged. The heavens and earth seemed to tremble. In the void, a faint, illusory white ripple floated—it was the power of true essence, becoming a transparent ripple. When the old man's palm force struck it, it actually rebounded the palm wind back.
The old man's body trembled as he dodged the rebounding palm wind, his expression stiff and ugly.
"True essence, bind!"
Another series of women's low shouts rang out. The true essence ripples in the void appeared and disappeared, causing the crowd's eyes to freeze.
The true essence formation of the six women turned into a prison, trapping the old man inside, and slowly trembled toward him.
The old man's face grew increasingly gloomy. Only from within could he clearly feel the deterrent power of this true essence prison—it was very strong.
Watching the constantly approaching and compressing true essence, the old man's palms churned. Terrifying true essence rolled in his hands, sharp as blades.
"Ha!"
The old man's legs violently trembled. His body turned into an illusion, shooting upward. A terrifying palm force directly stamped onto the true essence prison. The prison became clear, emitting light and making cracking sounds.
"Bind and kill!"
Another series of icy voices echoed through the space. The true essence prison transformed into a brilliant light. A terrifying aura of slaughter spread through the air. All those true essence lights converged toward the old man's body, strangling him.
"Chi, chi..."
The terrifying aura of slaughter spread. The old man's body trembled and swayed wildly. The strands of true essence power directly imprinted on his body. No matter how frantically he resisted, he could not stop the true essence from binding and killing him.
The crowd's eyes all trembled. The old man, at the Fifth Layer of Mysterious Martial Realm, was trapped by the true essence prison, then bound and killed. His body was twisted by the true essence, trembling incessantly.
"Bind!" One after another, colorful ribbons floated in the air, firmly tying up the old man's body. From six directions, his hands, feet, and head were all bound, like a dead man, in a cross shape, suspended in the void. His face was pale, blood seeping from the corners of his mouth.
"Boom!"
The crowd felt their minds tremble, finding it somewhat dreamlike. Not long ago, the old man had controlled the Nine Palaces Trapping Dragon Grand Formation, arrogant and invincible. Yet in the blink of an eye, he was strangled by a formation, now bound in the void, unable to move.
These people were incredibly strong. Why did they bind and kill the old man?
The mysterious woman looked at the bound old man, her expression cold. She spoke faintly: "Do you think that because he is alone and weak, you all want to kill him, thinking you can kill him whenever you want?"
As soon as the woman spoke, the crowd's eyes froze.
Him—this "him" clearly referred to Lin Feng.
The mysterious woman had come for Lin Feng.
The old man's eyes were stiff and ugly, his face as pale as paper, without a trace of color.
"Today, I want to see just how strong your forces are, and whether you dare to act without restraint." The mysterious woman swept her cold gaze over the crowd and spoke again: "Since you disregard the rules and break them, I will no longer abide by any rules. This so-called Snow Moon Gathering is no longer necessary."
After saying this, the mysterious woman's body slowly turned to face Lin Feng. Behind the light veil, her face carried a tenderness as soft as water. The coldness and sharpness from before had all vanished, completely gone.
In fact, even her watery eyes faintly glistened with tears, though she forcefully suppressed them.
"He wants to kill you. Now, you can kill him—kill him whenever you want. As for the battles with those two, continue. I want to see who dares to interfere."
The mysterious woman pointed at the old man, then at She Qiong and Dapeng Gongzi. The old man—Lin Feng could kill him if he wished. As for the battles with Dapeng Gongzi and She Qiong, they would continue.
No one was allowed to interfere!
This woman was so domineering, facing everyone, ignoring everything.
