Chapter 476: Insulting Them One by One
Lin Feng slowly stood up. Instead of walking toward the crowd opposite him, he strode directly toward the lower seats, leaving the people of Snow Moon Kingdom puzzled.
What did Lin Feng mean by this? Their gazes followed him, tinged with confusion.
But soon, they understood his intent. When Lin Feng reached Duan Tianlang's side, he stopped, standing there, looking down from above at the Wolf King.
Duan Tianlang raised his head slightly, staring at Lin Feng with cold eyes.
"Snow Moon, Wolf King?"
A cold, mocking smile curled at the corner of Lin Feng's mouth. He lifted his foot slightly, then brought it down.
With a crisp cracking sound, the wine cup and the red sandalwood table in front of the Wolf King shattered directly, crushed beneath Lin Feng's foot.
This scene made everyone's gaze freeze.
Lin Feng—he was so domineering, using his foot to trample on the Wolf King's dignity.
The Wolf King was also stunned, staring coldly at Lin Feng. He wanted to say something but couldn't get a word out. Duan Han had been killed by Lin Feng, and he, Duan Tianlang, had once gone into seclusion to cultivate. After emerging, his cultivation had greatly improved, but he discovered that even with his progress, Lin Feng had already surpassed him.
Now, he was no match for Lin Feng either.
An ancient saying goes: Do not bully a youth for being poor. Once upon a time, Duan Tianlang, with his supreme status, descended upon Cloud Sea Sect, using the Crimson Blood Iron Cavalry to trample Cloud Sea. How majestic he was, how unmatched.
Back then, in Duan Tianlang's eyes, Lin Feng was nothing but an ant. Though he had some talent, he still counted for nothing in the Wolf King's view.
Duan Tianlang destroyed Cloud Sea and bullied Lin Feng.
Later, during the march to Moyue, Duan Tianlang set a trap to frame Lin Feng, leaving him unable to defend himself. He was accused of colluding with the enemy and capturing the princess, causing tens of thousands of soldiers to die and be buried in foreign lands. Then, playing the thief crying "thief," he arrested Liu Canglan and wanted him beheaded.
At that time, Lin Feng was still just a pawn in Duan Tianlang's hands.
But now, Lin Feng stood right in front of Duan Tianlang, one foot crushing the red sandalwood table before him, grinding the Wolf King's wine cup into powder under his sole.
Perhaps at this moment, Duan Tianlang truly realized that the Lin Feng of today was no longer the Lin Feng of the past.
Now, Lin Feng dared to stand openly before him, without considering any consequences, and trample him with his foot.
Snow Moon, Wolf King?
Recalling the mocking smile on Lin Feng's lips, Duan Tianlang understood that this smile was undoubtedly Lin Feng's declaration. Lin Feng no longer cared about him, the Wolf King.
There was no gap in status between them. Lin Feng, as Yue Menghe's descendant, possessed a bloodline martial soul and a dual martial soul. Though Duan Tianlang also had bloodline power within him, it was thin. His status was not nobler than Lin Feng's. Moreover, Duan Wuyai had never been particularly fond of him, and now, he certainly wouldn't side with him.
Everyone just watched this scene silently, no one speaking or intervening. This was the grudge between Lin Feng and Duan Tianlang.
Even if some people resented Lin Feng, they dared not speak. The current Lin Feng no longer had any fear of them. If they said too much, they might invite Lin Feng's humiliation, and then they would have no way to save face.
"What do you want?" Duan Tianlang finally spoke, breaking the oppressive silence that had made everyone feel suffocated. But the Star Observation Platform still carried a chill, with all eyes fixed on Lin Feng and Duan Tianlang.
"What do I want?" Lin Feng sneered. "Duan Tianlang, you know very well the grudge between us. It's a fight to the death—either you die, or I die."
"But today, the Second Prince is hosting a banquet. I didn't come for you because of the Second Prince, not because I didn't dare. But you—how laughable. I didn't seek you out, yet you took the initiative to provoke me, showing off your schemes and targeting Xinye. Duan Tianlang, should I call you clever, or stupid as a pig or dog?"
A slap to the face. Lin Feng's words were like a slap across Duan Tianlang's face. Duan Tianlang showed off his schemes, but in Lin Feng's eyes, he was as stupid as a pig or dog.
Duan Tianlang's face alternated between green and purple, extremely uncomfortable, but he couldn't utter a single word to refute.
In this world, strength alone speaks. In the past, his status was nobler than Lin Feng's, and his strength greater, so he looked down on Lin Feng. But now, Lin Feng could ignore his status, and in terms of strength, Lin Feng was also stronger. Therefore, Lin Feng stood there, looking down on him.
"Duan Tianlang, in my eyes, you are nothing but a dead man, a man doomed to die. How laughable that you still took the initiative to provoke me," Lin Feng said coldly. "Today, after the banquet, I will come for you again."
With that, Lin Feng slowly turned around, leaving Duan Tianlang's gaze frozen in place. Lin Feng said: In my eyes, you are nothing but a dead man, a man doomed to die!
Lin Feng also said that after the banquet, he would come for him again. Was this "coming for him" to kill him?
A sudden fear surged in Duan Tianlang's heart. Lin Feng wanted to kill him, and this was no joke. He himself knew how deep the enmity between them was. One was the grudge of destroying a sect, the other the hatred of killing a son. Just as Lin Feng described, between the two, it was a fight to the death—either Lin Feng died, or he, Duan Tianlang, perished. Only one could live.
Duan Tianlang suddenly felt at a loss. He had tried every means to kill Lin Feng, but now he realized that Lin Feng already had the ability to kill him and dared to do so.
"Leave now?"
In front of so many people, if he sneaked away now, even if he lived, he would have no face left. Besides, if he left, would Lin Feng let him go? This hatred would have to be faced sooner or later.
His eyes flickered constantly. Duan Tianlang suddenly regretted his earlier impulsiveness, showing off petty cleverness by having those people use Duan Xinye's teasing to force Lin Feng out.
Lin Feng had indeed been forced out, but the first person he targeted was him, Duan Tianlang.
Lin Feng didn't know what Duan Tianlang was thinking at that moment, nor did he care. He turned around, and this time, he faced the people of Tian Feng Kingdom—the self-important Seven Envoys of Heavenly Wind.
He lifted his foot and stopped before the Sixth Envoy. The Seventh Envoy had already been killed by him, so the lowest-ranking among the Seven Envoys was now the Sixth.
"Lin Feng is not one of the Eight Young Masters, nor does he have a reputation as a genius. He can't compare to the illustrious and imposing Seven Envoys of Heavenly Wind. However, the Seven Envoys insulted the one I love. Even if my strength is insufficient, I still have to step forward."
Lin Feng stood before the Sixth Envoy and spoke slowly: "Lin Feng of Snow Moon Kingdom challenges the Sixth Envoy of Heavenly Wind to a life-and-death battle. One side dies, and the battle ends."
A challenge. Lin Feng belittled himself and elevated the Seven Envoys, but at this moment, he issued a challenge—a life-and-death battle.
This scene made everyone's gaze freeze, staring at Lin Feng. This guy...
The Sixth Envoy also looked at Lin Feng, his somewhat gloomy eyes flickering uncertainly. His strength was stronger than the Seventh Envoy's, but not by much. Lin Feng had killed the Seventh Envoy with one sword strike, so he could probably defeat him too.
If he accepted the challenge, the outcome would likely be death.
"Envoy Six, do you accept the challenge?" Lin Feng pressed with a cold sneer when he saw the Sixth Envoy's silence.
The Sixth Envoy's face turned ugly at Lin Feng's pressing question, and he finally uttered a sound: "Not interested."
Hearing the Sixth Envoy's reply, Lin Feng smiled—a sinister smile—and then let out a voice, not loud but very clear.
"The Seventh Envoy of Heavenly Wind, a waste; the Sixth Envoy, a coward. Two of the Seven Envoys of Heavenly Wind are already ruined."
The people of Tian Feng Kingdom heard Lin Feng's words, their faces turning extremely ugly as they stared at him.
But Lin Feng didn't care about their stares. He lifted his foot and took a step toward the upper seats, stopping beside the Fifth Envoy.
"Fifth Envoy!"
Lin Feng gave a cold smile and said: "Lin Feng of Snow Moon Kingdom, for the second time, challenges the Fifth Envoy of Heavenly Wind to a life-and-death battle. One side dies, and the battle ends."
The same voice, the same nobility—a life-and-death battle.
Lin Feng challenged the Sixth Envoy, and the Sixth Envoy refused. Then, he challenged the Fifth Envoy.
This made the faces of the Seven Envoys of Heavenly Wind extremely ugly. Lin Feng—was he going to insult them one by one, slap their faces one after another?
If the Fifth Envoy refused again, would Lin Feng move on to the next one and challenge the Fourth Envoy?
