"Hahahaha!" Great Elder Ouyang Gong laughed in extreme anger, turned around, and stared at Ling Feng, "I have been meticulously preparing for a long time; everything was within my expectations. I didn’t expect that today, an outsider like you would disrupt everything!"
"A victor becomes the king and the loser the bandit, I accept my fate," Ouyang Gong said. "However, even if I am to die today, I will not die alone!"
Ouyang Gong was well aware of the rules of the Ouyang Family. They would absolutely not allow him to continue as the Great Elder. Since that was the case, then this young man who had caused him to lose everything absolutely could not be allowed to remain in the world.
"Boy, you’re going to die!" Ouyang Gong was cornered and desperate; his large hand smacked down, channeling all his True Qi, and he violently pressed it towards Ling Feng’s chest!
Ouyang Gong’s figure, like a streak of lightning, took action explosively in an instant before anyone could react!
The crowd was tremendously frightened, especially the Elders of the Ouyang Family, each of them paled as if their faces were smeared with earth.
Ling Feng was a respected Divine Country Imperial Physician. If Ouyang Gong truly killed Ling Feng in front of everyone, they feared that their entire Ouyang Family would not be able to escape the fate of being razed by the Empire’s grand army.
No one could challenge the supreme authority of the Empire!
Was Ouyang Gong trying to drag the entire Ouyang Family down with him?
Ouyang Gong might not be a genius martial artist, but he possessed the strength of the Peak of Qi Condensation Realm. Ling Feng, despite being demonic and outstanding, was merely a martial artist in the Qi Condensation Realm. Could he withstand a full-force strike from Ouyang Gong?
Only Lin Xian’er, who was quite familiar with Ling Feng’s capabilities, knew that he could nearly crush Jing Wuxue, who was also at the peak of Pulse Condensation Realm, with overwhelming dominance. This Great Elder of the Ouyang Family was only somewhat stronger than Jing Wuxue.
Below the stage, Jia Lang’s eyes sparkled with extreme excitement, "Haha, exactly, kill him! Kill that kid! Competing with me? Stealing a woman from me? Go to hell!"
As for Ouyang Yu, in his eyes, he was nothing more than a henchman. Jia Lang didn’t care how he ended up; nevertheless, if Ouyang Gong could kill Ling Feng, he would be extremely pleased and happy.
Even as time delayed, it happened swiftly!
Ouyang Gong’s angry strike was already pressing close to Ling Feng.
The Elders of the Ouyang Family were either too far or taken by surprise, and none could intervene in time to rescue.
"What, cornered like a desperate dog?" Ling Feng stood still, neither dodging nor evading, a cold smile curling at the corner of his mouth.
His gaze grew chilly, filled with a profound killing intent, and even the furiously enraged Ouyang Gong couldn’t help but shudder.
"Nothing but a little brat still wet behind the ears. Die!" Ouyang Gong roared, "Fiery Flame Battle Fist!"
This was Ouyang Gong’s strongest killing move. Ling Feng had thwarted his plans. This deep hatred and grievance must be repaid with blood!
"Ninth Style of the Nine-layered Sea Suppressing Fist: Jiao Long Zhen Canghai!"
A fierce shout exploded across the entire Treasure Appraisal Hall, everyone faintly hearing what seemed like the roar of a dragon, followed by a conception resembling the vast ocean sweeping forth.
A figure heavily collided with a nearby stone pillar, rebounding fiercely and falling to the ground.
That figure was none other than Ouyang Gong!
Ouyang Gong struggled on the ground, pointed his finger forward, his pupils dilating rapidly as he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, and then fainted.
"Hmph, I’m in a pretty good mood today, not wanting to kill anyone. I’ll spare you from death," Ling Feng declared in cold harshness, standing proudly on the Treasure Identification Platform. "But while death can be pardoned, your crimes must be punished! Your Dantian Energy Sea has been completely ruined; you will never be able to cultivate again in this life!"
Below the stage, a deathly silence prevailed, not a sound to be heard!
Everyone’s eyes widened, stunned as they watched Ling Feng.
After a long while, an uproar erupted—no, a sensation!
"My god, he killed Ouyang Gong in one move!"
"So strong! Invincible!"
Exclamations of awe were ceaseless, and on the stage, Ouyang Rui, Lio Xudong, and those appraisers and young descendants of the Ouyang Family, each of them dumbfoundedly froze.
Qi Condensation Realm, one punch to kill the Peak of Pulse Condensation!
What kind of monster is this! What kind of demon!
Amazement sparked in Lin Xian’er’s eyes. Although she had witnessed it once before, seeing Ling Feng take action again still inevitably shocked her.
Jia Lang, the second son of the Jia Family who had vowed to make life difficult for Ling Feng, now sat in his chair as if he had seen a ghost.
"It’s impossible, this must be a dream, this has to be a dream!"
If Ling Feng had the power to instantly kill Ouyang Gong, did that mean he could casually kill him too?
My god, this must be a horrible nightmare!
Jia Lang felt his legs tremble violently; even if he were given three hundred doses of courage, he would never dare to be arrogant in front of Ling Feng again.
"Let’s... let’s go back, I... I need to go home first, then... then make a long-term plan..."
Jia Lang shivered and, while no one was paying attention, quietly slipped out through the back door.
He needed to bring a few experts from the Origin Transformation Realm from home to have the confidence to stand in front of Ling Feng again.
Finally, someone on the Treasure Identification Platform came back to their senses.
Ouyang Yu, with a tragic expression, suddenly threw himself next to his father, bursting into tears. "Dad, Dad!"
The highs and lows of life, nothing surpasses this.
A moment ago, he was prepared to become the heir of the family; now, his father not only lost his status but had also become a cripple. From now on, the situation for him, Ouyang Yu, would be dire.
The main branch of the family would certainly not keep this "source of misfortune."
By then, Ouyang Jing had also reacted and rushed toward Ling Feng in a few strides; with a "thump," he knelt before Ling Feng. "Master Ling Feng, thank you, thank you, Master!"
While he knelt and kept kowtowing, without Ling Feng’s assistance, today’s situation would have been settled, leaving him absolutely no chance to turn the tables.
"Thank me for what." Ling Feng hooked Ouyang Jing’s arm, "A man’s knees are as precious as gold; these knees should kneel only to parents and mentors, not to heavens and earth!"
As Ling Feng spoke, he patted Ouyang Jing on the shoulder and added through a sound transmission, "Regarding my previous covert guidance, you must not speak of it, understand?"
Ouyang Jing paused momentarily, then nodded slightly, quickly got up from the ground, and bowed deeply to Ling Feng. "Master Ling Feng, may I become your disciple?"
"Take me as a master?" Ling Feng rolled his eyes, "I am not even older than you; let’s skip the formal apprenticeship."
"Uh..." An awkward expression appeared on Ouyang Jing’s face.
Ling Feng smiled faintly, "Let’s skip the apprenticeship, but if you don’t mind, you can call me ’Big Brother.’"
"Junior brother Ouyang Jing greets Big Brother!"
Ouyang Jing immediately changed his address, without hesitation, and respectfully bowed to Ling Feng again.
