Chapter 479: Suppression

His gaze flickered for a moment, Duan Tianlang turned his body back, his foot stomping on the ground as true essence force gathered at his feet. His body soared into the air, treading through the void as he walked.

However, the feeling of being followed still lingered for Duan Tianlang. It felt as if he was being stared at by a wild beast, making him extremely uncomfortable.

His brows tightly knitted together. After a moment of hesitation, Duan Tianlang’s body suddenly spun around. A fiery shadow flashed before his eyes and instantly vanished.

“Since you’ve already shown yourself, come on out.”

Duan Tianlang looked behind him and spoke loudly. Although he had seen a fiery red shadow, he hadn’t seen it clearly.

A phantom slowly emerged from the darkness, rising into the air, causing Duan Tianlang’s eyes to freeze as he stared at that fiery figure.

No wonder, no wonder he had felt like he was being watched by a wild beast. The thing appearing before him was actually a demonic beast, one filled with an aura of majesty.

Its body was wreathed in crimson firelight, covered in sharp spikes, with cyan and red wings on its back. Even more terrifying was the beast’s gaze—fierce and malevolent, making anyone who looked at it feel its dread.

“This is… the demonic beast Qiongqi.”

Duan Tianlang’s eyes locked onto the figure of the demonic beast. He had seen this beast in ancient texts before, and it was very similar to the ancient ferocious beast Qiongqi.

“Lin Feng!”

A cold light flickered in his eyes. Seeing the demonic beast Qiongqi, how could Duan Tianlang not know that Lin Feng was behind this? When Lin Feng had slaughtered the people of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, he had heard that a demonic beast Qiongqi had appeared.

Lin Feng had actually sent the demonic beast Qiongqi to tail him.

He looked behind Qiongqi—no one was there. Lin Feng didn’t seem to be around.

Moreover, Lin Feng had indeed gone to send off Duan Xinye just now; there was no way that was fake. So that meant Lin Feng had deliberately sent Qiongqi to follow him. It seemed he really was planning to deal with Duan Tianlang.

A trace of chill crept into his heart. Duan Tianlang’s body suddenly moved, fleeing at an extremely fast speed.

“Whoosh…”

A whistling wind suddenly entered his ears, and then Duan Tianlang heard the demonic beast Qiongqi let out a low roar, causing his gaze to stiffen. Turning his head, Duan Tianlang’s heart trembled again.

Lin Feng. Lin Feng had also caught up.

His steps, which had been about to flee, came to an abrupt halt. Duan Tianlang stared at Lin Feng and said, “What do you want?”

Lin Feng didn’t speak, just quietly watching him, his gaze carrying a hint of coldness. From those calm yet deep pupils, Duan Tianlang could discern nothing.

When the breeze brushed against his body, Duan Tianlang felt a chill creeping in. This chill was very cold—it was the coldness in his heart.

Lin Feng’s silence made him feel very oppressed. Neither attacking nor not attacking, Lin Feng just stared at him like that.

Finally, Duan Tianlang couldn’t bear the oppression any longer. He snorted coldly, then whistled away as he fled.

As he flew through the air, there was no sound behind him at all. It seemed Lin Feng and Qiongqi hadn’t followed.

Duan Tianlang’s speed was fast, very fast. After flying through the air for a distance, he stopped and looked back, only for his gaze to freeze again.

Lin Feng and the demonic beast Qiongqi were there again. This time, Lin Feng was sitting on Qiongqi’s back, calmly looking ahead, not even glancing at him. That was why he hadn’t felt anyone behind him just now.

“Such terrifying speed.”

The demonic beast Qiongqi had been following him with hardly any sound; he couldn’t even sense it. Clearly, this beast’s speed was far greater than his, so it could easily keep up.

Of course, that was inevitable. A demonic beast with wings didn’t rely on true essence force to propel itself through the air like a human did; it truly soared. And Qiongqi was an ancient ferocious beast—how could its speed not be fast?

“Can’t escape?”

A voice arose in Duan Tianlang’s heart. Being tailed by Qiongqi, he couldn’t shake it off. And Lin Feng’s strength was clearly displayed. Could it be that today, he, the dignified Heavenly Wolf Prince of Snow Moon, would die at the hands of someone he once saw as an ant?

“What exactly do you mean?”

Duan Tianlang’s voice was cold. Lin Feng neither attacked nor refrained from attacking; he just kept staring at him, and the oppressive feeling in his heart grew stronger and stronger.

In response to Duan Tianlang, there was only more terrifying silence. Lin Feng still didn’t say a word, just watching him like that, causing the unease and fear in his heart to climb continuously.

The ferocious beast Qiongqi also stared at him. The gazes of the man and the beast pressed down on him, nearly suffocating him.

“Go.”

Duan Tianlang’s body suddenly turned around, speeding away at an incredible pace. True essence whistled as he moved at an unimaginable speed.

Flee. Now, Duan Tianlang only wanted to shake off Lin Feng and that damned beast.

Watching the scenery below constantly change, Duan Tianlang left the Imperial Palace, flying through the air above the Imperial City. He didn’t even look down, just mindlessly charging forward.

Finally, after what felt like a long time, a series of majestic buildings appeared before him.

Snow Moon Holy Academy. He had arrived.

The wind brushed past, and Duan Tianlang directly stepped into the Holy Academy, stopping at the tallest building in the center. This tower-shaped building was the cultivation sacred ground of Snow Moon Holy Academy, with a vein of origin energy beneath the ground.

Many people who were still cultivating near the Holy Tower looked up at the figure in the void and their gazes froze. It was the dean, Duan Tianlang.

And judging by the dean’s current appearance, he seemed somewhat disheveled, as if he was fleeing from something.

A moment later, two more figures appeared before them, causing their gazes to all freeze. It was a man and a beast.

The man was very young, his robes fluttering, looking exceptionally handsome and extraordinary. As for the beast, it was majestic and terrifying, its entire body exuding ferocity—clearly not a good creature.

“What’s going on?”

The crowd stared at the man and beast in the void, very puzzled. This man and beast seemed to be chasing their dean.

“It’s Lin Feng. That’s Lin Feng.”

Many people had been to the Xiangjiang River to watch that genius gathering back then, and Lin Feng was undoubtedly the most dazzling figure. Now, who in Snow Moon didn’t know Lin Feng?

Even in Snow Moon Holy Academy, many people recognized Lin Feng. As soon as Lin Feng appeared, they knew who he was.

Lin Feng and a terrifying demonic beast were following their dean, Duan Tianlang.

Duan Tianlang’s eyes locked onto Lin Feng and Qiongqi as he roared, “You won’t fight, yet you keep following me. What exactly are you trying to do?”

The crowd saw Duan Tianlang’s ferocious expression; he seemed to have been driven to desperation. Of course, there was also a trembling fear in his voice that he couldn’t hide.

Lin Feng’s gaze fell on Duan Tianlang as he said calmly, “Are you so afraid of me? Afraid that I’ll kill you? Where has the dignity of your Heavenly Wolf Prince gone?”

Lin Feng’s words were piercing, causing Duan Tianlang’s gaze to freeze in place. The identity of the Heavenly Wolf King was a joke in the face of Lin Feng’s strength. With absolute power, even imperial authority could be scorned, let alone a prince.

The crowd now understood completely. Lin Feng really was tracking their dean, the Heavenly Wolf King. And their powerful dean was very scared, terrified, afraid of Lin Feng.

This seemed somewhat laughable. Their dean was actually afraid of a disciple from Heavenly One Academy. But that was the reality. Whether in an academy or a sect, when those genius disciples grew up, they would inevitably surpass their teachers and become stronger than the leaders of their academies or sects. And Lin Feng had undoubtedly entered that ranks. With his current strength, he was enough to look down on their dean, Duan Tianlang.

Silence. Faced with Lin Feng’s words, Duan Tianlang could say nothing. The dignity of the Heavenly Wolf King?

Strength brought dignity. If one’s strength was inferior to another’s, where was the dignity?

“Swish, swish…” A series of sounds rang out as many figures soared into the air, standing beside Duan Tianlang, staring at Lin Feng with cold gazes. These people were all guest elders of Snow Moon Holy Academy.

But now, they all seemed to be facing a great enemy, staring at Lin Feng.

That day on the banks of the Xiangjiang River, Lin Feng had already proven the power of his strength. And now, Lin Feng’s cold gaze seemed even more terrifying. He had actually charged straight into their academy to act wild—too arrogant.

PS: Today, I accompanied Yu Feng the great author for a bit, then accompanied some high school classmates. Two days off were wasted like this, shameful. I still owe about twenty-five or twenty-six chapters. I have no face to say it. This was something I didn’t anticipate. I’ve always been afraid to make promises easily, afraid that my brothers would be too supportive. This month, my brothers have really been too supportive. I have no face to say anything more. I can only apologize. Next month, aside from the three days of the annual meeting, I will still maintain a base of four updates per day, continuing for another month.
