Chapter 82

Li Xingjian waved his hand at the crowd, indicating that there was no need for formalities, then turned his gaze toward the Burial Sword Peak.

The gravitational field of the Burial Sword Peak has actually changed?

Each of the ten peaks of Shujian Mountain has its own corresponding gravitational field, in accordance with certain heavenly laws, allowing them to stably float in the void.

But now, the gravitational field of the Burial Sword Peak has become unstable?

Without time to think too much, Li Xingjian waved his hand, and a huge, illusory Nine-Star Wheel appeared in front of him. As the wheel turned, different star symbols slowly rose on it, mysterious and unpredictable.

Li Xingjian formed a spell with his hands, then shot out a white sword finger. The Nine-Star Wheel began to spin rapidly, and a large number of star points rose in the void, condensing into a huge ancient "Heavy" character, which then entered the Burial Sword Peak.

The collapse of the mountain continued, but after the "Heavy" character entered, the speed of the collapse clearly slowed down, and the tremors gradually subsided.

Li Xingjian cast another spell, and after several "Heavy" characters entered the mountain, the collapse finally stopped.

It actually... lost three layers of force!

Li Xingjian's silver eyebrows rose, clearly indicating the severity of the situation.

After looking around, he finally fixed his gaze on Qin Feng, who was dragging Chong Wu.

"Huh? He actually pulled out that strange sword?!"

Li Xingjian knew about the Chong Wu Sword, but he did not know the name or origin of the sword. This mysterious heavy sword had existed long before he entered Shujian Mountain, and it was said to be one of the earliest hidden swords on the Burial Sword Peak. When Li Xingjian was young, he had tried to pull out this sword but failed. Moreover, from the establishment of Shujian Mountain to the present, there had been no reports of anyone pulling out this sword.

But today, someone actually pulled out this treasure sword!

"Bring that disciple over to me!"

Li Xingjian pointed at Qin Feng, indicating to the attendant to bring Qin Feng over.

"Yes!"

The broad-faced attendant quickly responded, activating his flying sword and flying directly to Qin Feng. He tried to carry Qin Feng, but as soon as Qin Feng, carrying Chong Wu, jumped onto the broad-faced attendant's flying sword, the sword immediately plummeted straight down.

"Sure enough, that sword can affect gravity!"

Li Xingjian's silver eyebrows rose, and silver light flashed between his fingers. He reached out into the void, and a huge silver hand suddenly appeared, catching Qin Feng and the broad-faced attendant.

After catching them, Li Xingjian flashed and appeared on the Burial Sword Peak, placing the two down. As he retracted his hand, Chong Wu was already in Li Xingjian's hand.

Qin Feng did not stop him, knowing that if Li Xingjian really wanted to take Chong Wu, he wouldn't do it in public.

"Thank you, Sect Leader, for your rescue!"

The broad-faced cultivator was drenched in sweat, having been terrified.

Qin Feng gave a slight bow, then narrowed his eyes and looked at Li Xingjian. The leader of the righteous sect in Yunqi Kingdom stood there like a giant sword piercing the sky, naturally exuding an aura of authority, which was indeed extraordinary.

However, when Qin Feng's gaze fell on Li Xingjian's back, his eyes widened to the size of eggs.

Behind Li Xingjian stood Li Haoran, Li Xingjian's only son, the son whom Li Xingjian's wife, Qin Xin Yue, cherished like a treasure. But this son of heaven, Qin Feng actually knew!

He was the black-cloaked youth who, along with Ye Wuyuan, had attempted to rape Huo Siyan in the small forest on the southern outskirts of Luoyang Town!

Especially those silver eyebrows, which were extremely noticeable!

The lecher who almost died from a punch from Qin Feng was actually a disciple of Shujian Mountain, and even the only son of the Sect Leader of Shujian Mountain!

If this news spread, it would surely cause a sensation in the entire cultivation world of Yunqi Kingdom!

The key issue was that, despite his soul being damaged, the Li Haoran in front of him seemed completely fine, which was impossible unless he had used some rare medicine to heal his soul damage. Otherwise, he wouldn't have recovered so quickly.

Qin Feng glanced at Li Xingjian and Qin Xin Yue and suddenly understood.

Li Haoran truly had a good father!

This thought, which Qin Feng kept to himself, was indeed quite sarcastic.

As the leader of the righteous path, his son was out raping and plundering.

After being injured, his father would clean up the mess.

"This matter, his father Li Xingjian probably doesn't know about. Otherwise, for the sake of face, he would have disciplined his good son properly."

"Hmph, what a small world!"

Qin Feng recognized Li Haoran, and Li Haoran naturally recognized him.

At that moment, Li Haoran's face turned pale, as if he had seen a ghost. He stared at Qin Feng, almost terrified, and quickly hid behind Li Xingjian.

How could he be here? It's really a nightmare!

Li Haoran knew that Qin Feng was a physical cultivator, and a good physical cultivator who should have stayed in the Qin family. Why did he come to Shujian Mountain?

The key issue was that Qin Feng knew him!

That night, the power of Qin Feng's punch had caused Li Haoran to have nightmares for three days. Qin Feng's terrifying face and that huge fist were unforgettable, even if they were turned to ashes.

"This Qin Feng must die!"

At that moment, Li Haoran felt that Qin Feng was a demon from his nightmares, and he couldn't rest until Qin Feng was dead. His mother, Qin Xin Yue, seemed to notice his abnormality and asked, "Haoran, what's wrong?"

"Oh... nothing, nothing! I was just surprised by Father's divine power. I didn't expect Father's cultivation to have improved so much."

"Indeed, your father has benefited greatly from studying the 'Ten Cloud Swords of the Great Wasteland.' It seems he has a good chance of advancing to the third stage of the Heavenly Gang within ten years."

Qin Xin Yue's doting on her son was well-known, and she didn't notice his evasive gaze.

In her eyes, her son was the best, and under her good education, he was beginning to show his potential. His cultivation was among the best of the younger generation, and with her help, he had successfully obtained one of the twin swords of Shujian Sect, the Heavenly Thunder.

Her husband, Li Xingjian, was her pride, and her son, Li Haoran, was her pride.

Li Xingjian glanced back at his son, a hint of helplessness in his eyes. As the saying goes, a doting mother often spoils her son. This son was good in every way, except that he was too playful. Otherwise, with Li Haoran's mutated lightning spiritual root, if he had worked hard, he could have already surpassed Zhan Bai, who had an Earth Profound root, and become the best among the younger generation of Shujian Mountain.

Li Xingjian didn't notice anything unusual because Qin Feng had concealed it well.

Qin Feng wasn't foolish. If he told anyone about this, they wouldn't believe him, especially in public, in front of Li Xingjian and Qin Xin Yue. Without evidence, he would be the one to suffer.

Li Haoran also understood this.

Therefore, Qin Feng only glanced at Li Haoran and then looked away, as if he had never seen him before. But in his heart, he decided that if this guy dared to cause trouble, he wouldn't care who his father or mother was; he would kill him without hesitation!

Worst case, he would just leave and run away!

From the moment he entered Shujian Mountain, everything Qin Feng saw and heard, especially the matter with Li Haoran, had brought his impression of Shujian Mountain down to zero.

If it weren't for the Chong Wu Sword in Li Xingjian's hands, Qin Feng might have turned around and left.

It really confirmed what Tian Yao had said: a bunch of hypocrites!

"What's your name?"

At this moment, Li Xingjian had shifted his gaze from Chong Wu to Qin Feng, his tone calm as he asked.

Qin Feng leaned forward slightly, not intimidated, and replied, "Reporting to Sect Leader, I am Qin Feng!" At this point, Qin Feng was not yet a formal disciple of Shujian Mountain, so he could only refer to himself as a junior.

"Qin? A disciple of the Qin family?" Li Xingjian's eyebrows rose, his expression somewhat surprised.

"Um!" Qin Feng nodded. There was no need to hide this. Before entering the sect, Shujian Mountain would send someone to investigate his background, and Li Haoran behind Li Xingjian also knew he was from the Qin family.

After receiving a positive response, Li Xingjian suddenly stopped asking questions, his face serious, as if he was thinking about something.

After a long time, Li Xingjian sighed and continued, "This mysterious heavy sword, although not the strongest sword of Shushan, is of great significance to Shujian Mountain. So don't blame me for being cautious. If a spy from the demonic path were to infiltrate the sect and obtain this sword, it would be a disaster for Shujian Mountain. The sword was pulled out by you, so it belongs to you. However, you say you are from the Qin family. Do you have any proof?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Feng's eyebrows furrowed.

"What does Li Xingjian mean by this?"

Qin Feng quickly thought about Li Xingjian's words, trying to understand his intentions and the tone of his voice. Tian Yao, who was inside his body, had completely hidden his presence, probably to avoid being discovered by Li Xingjian.

After much thought, Qin Feng felt that Li Xingjian wasn't being petty. After all, Zhan Bai was Li Xingjian's disciple, and Qin Feng knew Zhan Bai's character. His master shouldn't be too bad, right? Therefore, after a moment's hesitation, he nodded and replied, "Yes!"

With that, Qin Feng took out a letter from his storage bag, which his grandfather had given him before he left, and handed it to the attendant nearby, who then passed it up.

Li Xingjian took the letter and saw that it was addressed to Luo Yuchan.

The sender was Qin Tianzheng.

Upon seeing these two names, Li Xingjian's face suddenly turned dark, and he coldly snorted but did not open the envelope. Instead, he held the envelope, lost in thought, as if recalling something. Qin Xin Yue, standing beside him, glanced at the envelope and, upon seeing a certain name, instantly revealed a murderous look, and her gaze toward Qin Feng became unfriendly.

"Uh..."

This time, Qin Feng was puzzled. It was just a letter; why such a murderous look? Could it be that his grandfather and this Luo Yuchan...

Recalling the strange expression on his grandfather's face when he gave him the letter, Qin Feng felt a sense of foreboding.

"Can't be, I didn't expect this old man to be a playboy in his youth!"

While Qin Feng was silently criticizing in his mind, Li Xingjian quickly adjusted his state of mind and, in a calm tone, said to Qin Feng, "I will pass on this letter for you! As for this sword..." Li Xingjian hesitated for a moment but still threw the Chong Wu Sword to Qin Feng.

"If you ever betray Shujian Mountain, I will chase you to the ends of the earth to retrieve this sword! Do you understand?"

As he spoke, Li Xingjian's eyes suddenly flashed with a piercing light, and his aura grew, pressing down on Qin Feng so hard that he could hardly breathe.

"Yes, disciple understands!"

This feeling of being suppressed was very uncomfortable and frustrating, but Qin Feng had no choice. In the face of such a huge power gap, everything was meaningless, so he chose to endure.

Li Xingjian throwing the Chong Wu Sword to him clearly meant that he had confirmed Qin Feng's identity and that he could join Shujian Mountain. Therefore, Qin Feng referred to himself as a disciple.

"Good!" Li Xingjian was somewhat satisfied with Qin Feng's response and then turned to leave.

Qin Xin Yue glanced at Qin Feng again, coldly snorted, and looked displeased. Li Haoran, after calming down, gave Qin Feng a menacing look, threatening him not to reveal anything.

Qin Feng smiled. In his life, he had been threatened many times, but none of those people had a good end.

Qin Feng had no interest in spreading rumors, but if he had the chance, he wouldn't mind killing Li Haoran again.

Holding the Chong Wu Sword, Qin Feng looked into the distance, feeling that this trip to Shujian Mountain might have been a wrong choice.

The mountains were beautiful, but the hearts of people were even more treacherous...
