Chapter 117: Chapter 117 Sky Pavilion
“`
Divinity Transformation Realm experts are considered legendary on the Mainland, and one can only imagine how terrifying a purple energy barrier is.
Among those present, only Feng Wuchen and Zhang Junlan knew that the purple energy was a barrier; no one else had any clue, not even Huangfu Zhantian.
No one had ever seen such a fearsome barrier, and they were unfamiliar with it as well.
“The aura of the barrier is extremely terrifying. Could Xiao Xiao be…” The dreadful aura emanating from the barrier seemed to give Feng Wuchen a clue about Ling Xiaoxiao’s origins, but he wasn’t certain.
“Bastards!” Huangfu Zhantian was furious, his face twisting with rage. He couldn’t believe he had been injured by a barrier, his entire arm throbbing with pain.
...
How could an expert at the Fifth Level of the Yuandan Realm be injured by a girl at the First Level of the Yuandan Realm? Such a humiliating event — how could Huangfu Zhantian not be enraged?
However, Huangfu Zhantian dared not try a second time. If he still couldn’t break through and ended up getting hurt again, would he even have the strength left to flee?
“Do you want to try again?” Ling Xiaoxiao asked coldly.
Huangfu Zhantian glared at Ling Xiaoxiao, his eyes filled with cruelty and malice, but he had no way to deal with her.
Such a fearsome barrier, even if the Sect Master of Tianyun Sect were to come, would not be able to shake it in the slightest.
“Feng Wuchen, you have good luck today! I refuse to believe you can hide behind a woman forever! I won’t rest until I’ve killed you!” Huangfu Zhantian bellowed in rage. Helpless to do anything else, he had no choice but to retreat for the time being.
With Huangfu Zhantian leaving, Feng Wuchen and the others lacked the power to stop him.
Today, they owed their lives to Ling Xiaoxiao’s intervention; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
“Feng Wuchen, come clean, who is that girl? Her barrier is no simple thing,” Zhang Junlan hurriedly asked in a low voice.
“Since you can tell it’s a barrier, your origins must not be simple either,” Feng Wuchen said indifferently.
“Big Brother Feng, are you all right?” Ling Xiaoxiao asked with concern.
“I’m fine, this injury will heal by tomorrow. Xiao Xiao, thank you for your help,” Feng Wuchen said with a faint smile, not forgetting to express his gratitude.
Ling Xiaoxiao’s sweet smile appeared as she said, “You’re too polite, Big Brother Feng. I don’t want to see you being bullied, especially by Huangfu Zhantian. If you had broken through to the Third Layer of the Yuandan Realm, how could he be so arrogant?”
Feng Wuchen smiled without replying, feeling deep gratitude towards Ling Xiaoxiao in his heart.
Unsure of Ling Xiaoxiao’s true origins and with no apparent connection between them, she had entered Feng Wuchen’s world and was willing to risk her life for him. Her sincerity was enough for Feng Wuchen to accept her.
“Miss Xiao Xiao, thank you for saving Chen Er and saving our Feng family,”
Feng Zhengxiong and Xiao Qingqing also expressed their gratitude. Overwhelmed with joy, Xiao Qingqing hugged Ling Xiaoxiao tightly, weeping with happiness.
“The Huangfu family.” Feng Wuchen glanced in the direction Huangfu Zhantian had left, a hint of coldness flickering in his eyes.
In the moment Huangfu Zhantian had injured Feng Zhengxiong, he had thoroughly enraged Feng Wuchen. Regardless of whether the Huangfu family backed down, Feng Wuchen would not let Huangfu Zhantian off.
The appearance of Huangfu Zhantian had posed a great threat to the Feng family; as long as the Huangfu family existed, Feng Wuchen would never be at ease.
“Now is not the time, the moment is not yet ripe. The forces of Chi Huang are not strong enough yet. Just give me half a year, no, three months! Give me three months, and I can contend with the Huangfu family!” Feng Wuchen said confidently, his eyes resolute.
Put simply, the Feng family was too weak, and Feng Wuchen’s strength was not yet formidable enough; otherwise, Huangfu Zhantian would definitely not have returned today.
“Elders, mother, please take father back to heal. Big brother, second brother, follow me to a place,” Feng Wuchen said seriously.
Feng Yuan and Feng Zhan exchanged puzzled looks, unsure of where Feng Wuchen was taking them.
“Chen Er, be careful,” Feng Zhengxiong cautioned.
“Father, don’t worry,” Feng Wuchen assured him with a confident glance, leading the way out of the courtyard first.
Ling Xiaoxiao and Liu Qingyang were also confused, quickly following him.
“Uncle Feng, please heal well. I’ll go and take a look,” Zhang Junlan politely called out before rushing to catch up.
The group sped through the woods after Feng Wuchen, and about half an hour later, they arrived at a mountain range near the capital.
Lofty peaks stretched as far as the eye could see, one after another, towering and majestic.
Not far ahead in the mountain range was a clear lake with an impressive peak rising from its center. Around the grand peak, there were several chain bridges that connected to the lake’s shore. At the summit sat a stately pavilion.
This pavilion was known as Sky Pavilion!
“Third brother, what are we doing at Sky Pavilion?” Feng Yuan asked, puzzled.
“Sky Pavilion is a mysterious force that has recently appeared in Tianzhou. It’s guarded by eight powerful experts, with strict vigilance. No one dares to approach it. They have appeared in Unmatched City before, displaying formidable strength. At the time, no one knew whom they were pursuing,” Feng Zhan added.
“That’s right, and they also have connections with people in the capital,” Feng Yuan said gravely.
“Let’s go, let’s take a look,” Feng Wuchen said with a light smile. Before Feng Yuan could stop him, Feng Wuchen had already darted off.
“Eight people?” Liu Qingyang frowned slightly.
About ten minutes later, Feng Wuchen and the seven others arrived at the edge of a chain bridge by the lake.
There were actually people dressed in black guarding the chain bridge!
“Sky Pavilion is off-limits. Leave immediately!” a person dressed in black said coldly.
“Third brother, let’s not be rash!” Feng Yuan quickly tried to persuade him.
“`
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh!”
Just at that moment, eight Black Shadows suddenly flashed into existence, like wraiths appearing without warning, catching everyone completely off guard.
“Instantaneous movement!” Ling Xiaoxiao exclaimed in surprise as she watched the eight figures.
“What a terrifying movement technique!” Zhang Junlan frowned slightly, shocked to the core.
“Greetings, Grand Commander!” The eight figures suddenly dropped to one knee and respectfully spoke.
“Greetings, Grand Commander!” All the guards stationed by Sky Pavilion shouted respectfully. Their voices echoed through the surrounding mountains, reverberating continuously, their momentum overwhelming.
The guards who had been obstructing the way immediately broke out in cold sweat, not realizing that the young man before them was actually the Pavilion Master of Sky Pavilion!
However, Feng Wuchen had no intention of blaming them.
“Rise,” Feng Wuchen said with a light smile.
“Thank you, Grand Commander!” Their voices swept through the surrounding mountains once again.
“Feng Wuchen, I really didn’t see it coming. You even have your own forces! Ambitious, aren’t you?” Zhang Junlan said with a surprised smile.
Looking towards the eight individuals, Feng Wuchen smiled lightly and said, “Chi Huang, your cultivation has progressed very quickly.”
Chi Huang removed his mask and respectfully replied, “Thank you for your tutelage, Grand Commander.”
Chi Huang’s cultivation had already stepped into the Third Layer of the Yuandan Realm. Except for Leng Mucheng, who was the weakest among them, the other seven had also stepped into the Yuandan Realm, their strengths advancing by leaps and bounds.
“Grand Commander? Are you soldiers of the Empire?” Feng Yuan said in utmost shock, “Little brother, you… you’re the Pavilion Master of Sky Pavilion?”
“Sky Pavilion is actually your power base!” Feng Zhan said with an incredulous face.
“Elder brother Feng Yuan, they are elite soldiers of the Empire’s Sky Shadow Cavalry and Black Flag Army! But not anymore,” Liu Qingyang said with an excited smile, having guessed the identity of the eight.
“Liu Qingyang, do you remember me?” Leng Mucheng removed his mask, revealing a trace of a smile.
“Big Brother Leng!” Liu Qingyang declared excitedly, “Impressive! Eightfold of the Transformative Realm!”
“Big Brother Leng!” Miao Qingqing also greeted happily.
Leng Mucheng nodded, then respectfully addressed Feng Wuchen, “Grand Commander, please!”
“Sky Pavilion is well built; you’ve all put in a lot of effort,” Feng Wuchen commended, extremely satisfied with Sky Pavilion.
This was also Feng Wuchen’s first visit, he only knew the location and had never been there. Seeing it for the first time, he was extremely satisfied.
“As long as the Grand Commander is satisfied, we can rest easy,” Leng Mucheng said with a smile, looking quite proud, as if he had designed Sky Pavilion himself.
“What’s the background of these guards?” Feng Wuchen inquired.
“Grand Commander, they are all death-row prisoners of the Empire! Given hope and opportunity, we believe they wouldn’t dare betrayal,” Chi Huang replied respectfully.
“Death-row prisoners?” Feng Wuchen said, looking at Chi Huang in surprise.
“These guards are all death-row prisoners?” Miao Qingqing and Liu Qingyang were both immensely astonished.
Seemingly sensing Feng Wuchen’s concerns, Chi Huang quickly added, “Grand Commander, rest assured, no one knows about this. Huanyang secretly brought them out, and even the Great Commander of Tianzhou is unaware of the matter.”
“I trust your actions; I’m just surprised, that’s all. Indeed, death-row prisoners are a good choice, it’s just lacking a bit…” Feng Wuchen said with a satisfied smile.
Upon hearing this, Chi Huang breathed a sigh of relief.
“Grand Commander, what’s the situation with the Huangfu family?” Chi Huang inquired, obviously already aware of the issues between the Feng family and the Huangfu family, but they had not acted without orders from Feng Wuchen, since they were no longer soldiers of the Empire, but subordinates of Feng Wuchen.
Feng Wuchen said gravely, “I have come just for that matter.”
After crossing the chain bridge, Chi Huang led Feng Wuchen and the others into the imposing palace.
“Wow! So beautiful! So majestic!” Miao Qingqing was full of astonishment and delight.
“Brother Feng, this place is truly magnificent!” Ling Xiaoxiao was overjoyed at first sight, her pretty face breaking into a sweet and enchanting smile.
Feng Wuchen smiled with satisfaction and said, “Indeed, it’s very magnificent, Chi Huang, well done.”
“Grand Commander, this was all thought up by Leng Mucheng. The kid has a good head on his shoulders,” Chi Huang said with a laugh.
“Oh? It was Leng Mucheng’s idea?” Feng Wuchen looked at Leng Mucheng in surprise and praised, “Not bad at all, the palace is quite magnificent.”
“Please take a seat, Grand Commander!” Leng Mucheng said joyfully, respectfully gesturing an invitation.
Feng Wuchen nodded and then took his seat in the main hall. His presence was imposing, truly befitting the master of a pavilion.
Zhang Junlan smiled and commented, “Indeed, you do have the air of a pavilion master.”
“Truly imposing!” Liu Qingyang said enviously. “I wonder when we will be as impressive as Brother Feng.”
“Greetings, Pavilion Master!” The moment Feng Wuchen sat down, Chi Huang and the other seven respectfully knelt on one knee, their expressions filled with worship.
“We’re all friends here; no need for such formalities, rise,” Feng Wuchen quickly said.
“Grand Commander, since we are here today for the matter of the Huangfu family, please give your orders!” Leng Mucheng said earnestly, ready to face any danger for Feng Wuchen’s cause.
