"Little Feng, how are you?"
When the Wind-Thunder Formation dissipated, Yan Haotian looked at Xiao Yifeng sitting on the ground, his body drenched in blood, and his face showed a shock. Beside him, An Juntian’s mouth curled into a cold smile, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Xiao Yifeng did not speak. His body began to shimmer with streaks of starlight, enveloping him as his wounds rapidly healed.
A few seconds later, a roaring sound came from Xiao Yifeng’s body, and a terrifyingly powerful aura swept out, instantly annihilating the surrounding void’s air currents.
The wounds on Xiao Yifeng’s body had all healed, giving off a metallic sheen, and emitting a domineering and powerful presence.
Xiao Yifeng’s eyes snapped open, sparkling with vigor, his aura resonant and profound.
Through the refinement of the Wind-Thunder Formation, Xiao Yifeng’s physical body had achieved a significant breakthrough, his physical strength now fully reaching the level of the Entering Saint Realm.
His pure physical strength was now enough to contend with early-stage masters of the Entering Saint Realm; against masters below that level, even with their full strength, they could not harm him.
Xiao Yifeng’s body had become incredibly domineering; ordinary people could not hurt him, and even without the power of Starforce, he could utterly defeat Condensing Qi masters with his physical strength alone.
Even facing early-stage masters of the Entering Saint Realm, he was fearless. With the substantially strengthened Starforce post-transformation and his weapons, he should have no problem confronting middle-stage masters of the Saint Realm.
Xiao Yifeng’s strength had progressed at a miraculous pace in just two short days.
The expressions on Yan Haotian and An Juntian’s faces were full of shock after witnessing this scene.
"How is this possible?"
An Juntian’s eyes flickered, scarcely able to believe it.
"Worthy of being his apprentice, indeed exceptionally talented; capable of enhancing his strength even from this."
Yan Haotian watched Xiao Yifeng, thinking inwardly.
Xiao Yifeng stood up from the ground, his gaze turning towards Yan Haotian.
"Good, you really are impressive. Not only did the Wind-Thunder Formation not harm you, but it also even made you stronger, impressive!"
Yan Haotian exclaimed admiringly as he looked at Xiao Yifeng.
"I guess this can be considered a blessing in disguise. I even have to thank Elder An for this!"
Xiao Yifeng said with a smile, his eyes glancing towards An Juntian.
An Juntian snorted heavily and turned away, leaving the place.
"Alright, you are now a member of the Dragon Soul Purple Dragon Guard. I will have someone send the Dragon Soul Credential to you later. If there are any missions that need you, I will notify you."
Yan Haotian spoke indifferently.
"Also, I’ll get someone to bring you some clothes to wear."
Yan Haotian’s gaze swept over Xiao Yifeng and he couldn’t help but say.
Xiao Yifeng glanced down and suddenly realized that his clothes had been completely destroyed in the Formation; he was completely naked, and he instantly covered himself up with an embarrassed look.
After changing into the clothes provided by Yan Haotian, Xiao Yifeng walked out of the room, waved to Bai Zhixin, and then left the Dragon Soul Headquarters base.
Time passed, and night fell.
In Yanjing, outside a luxurious hotel, one luxury car after another appeared at this location, with CEOs or representatives from various large corporations in Yanjing.
Many scions of noble families and children of officials were clad in Western dress suits, gathering for one specific purpose—to attend a charity gala.
It was not the charity event itself that drew such a crowd, but the host was no ordinary figure. She was none other than the chairwoman of Yanjing Sunx Corporation, Sunx Ziyun, who was considered one of the two most powerful businesswomen in Yanjing alongside Situ Qian.
Being the sister of the Patriarch of one of the Eight Great Families of Yanjing, Sunx Ziyun, with her noble status, naturally attracted a throng of celebrities and nobles to her event.
A Pagani pulled up, and out stepped Xiao Yifeng and Ye Yaxin from the stretch vehicle.
Ye Yaxin wore a white gown that exuded elegance and grace. Coupled with her delicate features and perfect physique, she was undeniably the center of male attention.
However, Xiao Yifeng was dressed in casual attire, appearing carefree and relaxed.
"You, this guy, at such an important event, couldn’t you at least wear a suit?"
Ye Yaxin looked at Xiao Yifeng somewhat helplessly.
"Suits just don’t suit me. I prefer to do as I please, without constraints!"
Xiao Yifeng retorted with a snort.
"Alright, I can’t do anything about you. Let’s go inside,"
Ye Yaxin said with a sense of resignation.
At that moment, two Mercedes-Benz 600s escorting a Maybach slowly approached. Several men in suits got out of the Mercedes-Benz and opened the door to the Maybach, from which a man and a woman emerged.
The woman was dressed in a black backless evening gown, her face strikingly cold and her eyes radiating an aloofness that seemed to keep others at a distance. The man wore a well-tailored, high-end suit with handsome features and side-swept bangs.
Carrying the air of nobility, with a smile lingering at the corner of his lips, these two were none other than Situ Yuntian and Situ Qian of the Situ Family Clan.
As Situ Yuntian and Situ Qian got out of the car, their gazes landed on Xiao Yifeng and Ye Yaxin.
Situ Qian shot a cold look at the two of them.
Situ Yuntian, on the other hand, approached with a smile.
"Brother Xiao, it’s been decades since we last met, and today we finally see each other again!"
Situ Yuntian greeted Xiao Yifeng.
Xiao Yifeng glanced casually at Situ Yuntian.
With a slight change in his complexion, Situ Yuntian tried to maintain his smile and said, "Brother Xiao doesn’t recognize me anymore? I am Situ Yuntian. As a child, I often visited the Xiao Family, and we used to meet frequently."
"I don’t know you, don’t make unwarranted connections!"
Xiao Yifeng spoke indifferently, taking Ye Yaxin by the hand and walking toward the interior of the hotel.
"Hmph, acting so arrogant!"
Situ Qian uttered a disgruntled cold snort.
Situ Yuntian was not at all angry but smiled faintly, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.
"Do you know that Situ Yuntian?"
Once inside the hotel, Ye Yaxin curiously looked at Xiao Yifeng.
"He’s the nephew of an enemy of mine, not worth our attention,"
Xiao Yifeng uttered coldly.
The two of them presented their invitations and entered the venue of the charity gala, packed with many attendees and rows of tables set up. At the front was a stage, and behind it, a large screen displayed the Sunx Corporation’s new annual charity gala.
"Wife, you sit first; I’m going to the restroom!"
Xiao Yifeng said and then turned to leave, asking for directions before making his way to the restroom.
After finishing in the restroom, Xiao Yifeng had just walked out when a striking figure emerged from the opposite women’s restroom. Their eyes met.
In an instant, time seemed to freeze, their bodies halted, and their gazes intertwined in the air.
