# Chapter 907: The Proud Young Man
In a city within the Qian Domain, Lin Feng stopped and entered a tavern in the city. He ordered a few small dishes and placed several jars of Blazing Essence Wine on the table.
Now he was alone again. During his final days in Snow Moon, Lin Feng had left behind many good things. Old Man Huo and Old Man Yao had also returned to the imperial palace. Lin Feng had opened his furnace to refine pills, producing some powerful medicines, including Heavenly Fate Creation Pills, which helped several elders reshape their bones and improve their talents.
Xinye had very much wanted to come out and explore the world with Lin Feng, but Lin Feng knew it wasn't suitable. The outside world was fraught with danger, and countless people wanted to kill him. As soon as he left the Snow Moon Kingdom, the masses would soon forget that small nation. No one would go looking for trouble in Snow Moon Kingdom. Lin Feng understood clearly — those people's target was him.
Han Man and the others had each gone out to explore the continent on their own. Lin Feng drank the Blazing Essence Wine and couldn't help but think of Youyou and Jun Moxi and the others. He wondered how his brothers were progressing in seclusion. With venerable ones guiding them, they should be on the verge of breaking through to Heavenly Martial Realm at any moment. After all, their talents were already formidable, and they had all reached the Ninth Layer of Mysterious Martial Realm.
Qiongqi was also lying on the table, actually using his claws to hold a wine jar and pour himself a drink, causing the crowd in the tavern to stare in astonishment.
"What an interesting demonic beast. It actually wants to drink alcohol."
Lin Feng didn't mind, only giving Qiongqi a few sidelong glances. But this former great emperor was pitiful enough; he might as well let him be a bit carefree.
"Qiongqi?" At that moment, a slightly surprised exclamation came from within the tavern.
"To think it's actually the ancient ferocious beast Qiongqi. I never expected to encounter one in such a small place." Another voice came, clearly someone had recognized Qiongqi.
Qiongqi raised his head, his gaze coldly sweeping over those few people, revealing a human-like contempt that made them stare in surprise. Among them, a young man in white smiled lightly and said, "This Qiongqi is interesting."
The crowd all looked toward the group that had appeared in the tavern and immediately sensed something extraordinary about them. There were three of them, all with distinguished bearing. Especially the leading young man — fair-skinned, handsome, with a slender build — he was a very beautiful man. Beside him, a woman in a green long dress had delicate features and was very beautiful. On her neck hung a sparkling jade crystal that was clearly no ordinary item.
Even the black-clothed young man following behind the youth exuded a sharp aura. The three of them standing there seemed to become the absolute center of attention, overshadowing everyone else's radiance.
"It's actually the ferocious beast Qiongqi." Many people looked in surprise at the Qiongqi beside Lin Feng. They hadn't expected that the slightly sickly-looking man could actually have Qiongqi as his mount.
The white-clothed young man walked slowly toward Lin Feng. The woman pressed close to him, while the black-clothed young man quietly followed behind. The three of them came together to Lin Feng's side.
"This Qiongqi — can you trade it to me?" At this moment, the white-clothed young man spoke to Lin Feng, who was lowering his head to drink. His gaze casually swept over Lin Feng's shoulder. The little white fox there also seemed extraordinary, but he couldn't see anything unusual about it.
It turned out that Xue Linglong had also used some method to transform her body, turning into an ordinary snow fox so as not to reveal anything unusual. This was something her mother had always instructed her to do.
Lin Feng raised his head and looked at these three people. They were all very young, but their cultivation levels were all at Heavenly Martial Realm. This made Lin Feng feel puzzled. Were there really so many geniuses in the Qian Domain? That seemed unlikely. To encounter three of them just by drinking at a random tavern.
"Sorry, you must know how precious Qiongqi is. I won't trade it." Lin Feng replied with a faint smile. This young man stood there looking down on him, and whether it was him or the beautiful girl beside him, they both carried an air of arrogance. Lin Feng guessed they were probably geniuses from some terrifyingly powerful force. Otherwise, how could there be so many geniuses in the Qian Domain that he could encounter three at random? Especially this white-clothed young man, whose cultivation was at the Third Layer of Heavenly Martial Realm — enough to astonish even him.
"Don't worry, I won't treat you unfairly. You can make any request — Essence Crystals, or Heaven-grade techniques and martial skills." The white-clothed young man said casually, his voice indifferent, causing the people in the tavern to be shocked. Essence Crystals and Heaven-grade techniques — spoken so lightly by this young man.
"Just as I thought." Lin Feng smiled inwardly. It seemed his guess was correct. He just didn't know which force's genius this was, to speak of Essence Crystals and Heaven-grade techniques so casually.
"If you want to have a few drinks as a friend, that's fine. But as for trading Qiongqi, don't mention it again." Lin Feng said with a faint smile, directly refusing.
"And if I insist on having him?" The young man saw Lin Feng refuse him several times, and his voice turned slightly colder. A person at the First Layer of Heavenly Martial Realm — he was willing to exchange treasures with him, which was already giving him plenty of face.
"Know when to stop. Being able to exchange for treasures is already your good fortune. Why make things difficult for yourself? If you want some pills that can improve your constitution or make you look better, I have those too." The girl beside the young man spoke in a soft, rather charming voice, but her sarcastic words were especially grating.
Many people in the tavern watched the conflict between the two sides with interest. Compared to the spirited white-clothed young man, Lin Feng, with his sallow, sickly complexion, did appear rather ugly.
Lin Feng casually glanced at the girl and said with a faint smile, "Why is it that seeing your face makes even fine wine taste so bland? Drinking really depends on who you're facing. With a beautiful woman as company, the wine is fragrant and mellow. On the contrary, it's tasteless and hard to swallow — just like now."
"Oh?" The girl's gaze froze at Lin Feng's words, her expression turning unpleasant. Lin Feng was actually mocking her for being ugly.
"I'll give you one chance. Trade Qiongqi and take back what you just said." The white-clothed young man looked down at Lin Feng sitting there drinking, his voice becoming arrogant. His entire demeanor exuded an air of superiority.
Lin Feng shook his head slightly, then continued drinking on his own, ignoring the young man.
"It's rare to see someone as calm as you. But those who are calm usually have extraordinary strength. I wonder just how strong you really are." The young man didn't get angry but spoke with a smile. Then he pulled the girl along and walked away, sitting down at a table across from Lin Feng. The black-clothed young man, however, remained standing still, releasing a sharp aura. His killing intent carried a trace of blood energy. This person had likely been involved in killing not long ago.
"If you had agreed to the young master's trade just now, perhaps you would have had the chance to get to know him. But you missed this great opportunity. Maybe that's just your fate." The black-clothed young man said coldly, as if getting to know his young master was Lin Feng's great honor.
"Given your young master's character, it's better not to get to know him." Lin Feng shook his head and continued drinking, completely unconcerned about this young man who was also at the First Layer of Heavenly Martial Realm.
"Ungrateful." The black-clothed young man spat out a word, then took a step forward. Instantly, a sharp and fierce aura rushed toward Lin Feng. The killing intent seemed to come from a sea of bones and blood, enough to make one's heart tremble and dare not fight him.
"Oh?" Lin Feng frowned slightly. This aura was already quite fierce, carrying a soul-shaking willpower. This person was clearly very skilled in attack and had stained his hands with countless blood.
Moreover, his speed was extremely fast. In an instant, terrifying palm force slashed toward Lin Feng's face, like an incredibly sharp blade.
For a servant to have such astonishing strength made Lin Feng somewhat curious about the young man's identity.
Lin Feng's foot stomped the ground, and his body retreated along with his chair. The black-clothed young man moved like a gale wind, instantly reversing direction and continuing his attack toward Lin Feng. His speed was like lightning, and his footwork was extremely mysterious.
Lin Feng raised his palm and struck out. A booming collision sound rang out. The black-clothed young man felt his arm go numb, and his gaze stiffened. The force in Lin Feng's palm was so strong.
The white-clothed young man sitting there also showed a hint of surprise. He knew the black-clothed young man's strength well. Dealing with an ordinary First Layer Heavenly Martial Realm cultivator was no problem at all. His palm could easily tear apart demonic beasts. But he had actually been forced back by Lin Feng's palm strike.
"What do you think about taking him in as a subordinate and having him follow me?" The white-clothed young man said softly to the woman, actually wanting to recruit Lin Feng.
"This person is arrogant and unruly. I don't like him." The girl pouted and shook her head, saying, "Kill him."
Lin Feng had actually dared to insult her by calling her ugly.
"Alright, I'll listen to you and let him die then." The white-clothed young man said casually with a smile, as if a single word could decide Lin Feng's life and death.
PS: Seven hours left, brothers. Take a look at the flowers in your hands. Let's widen the gap a bit, so Wuben doesn't keep worrying and refreshing. How embarrassing.
