Chapter 44

Chen Feng shook his head slightly and walked off the stage.

Han Cong strode over, patted Chen Feng's shoulder heavily, and said with a smile, "Well done!"

Chen Feng smiled and asked, "Where is Senior Sister Yu'er? How is she doing?"

"Not much of a problem. I know her opponent, just an ordinary peak Fourth Stage of the Later Heaven realm. Yu'er should be able to defeat her."

Han Cong smiled and said, "Come, let's go and see."

"Alright."

The two walked towards the eighty-third arena where Han Yuer was.

As they arrived, they saw Han Yuer using her long whip to entangle a burly man, tightening it inch by inch like a python strangling its prey.

The disciple's face turned red, his breathing became difficult, and his bones creaked.

Chen Feng couldn't help but smile in understanding.

He knew how powerful this move was.

Sure enough, after just a few breaths, the burly man in the Fourth Stage of the Later Heaven realm couldn't hold on any longer and shouted with difficulty, "Senior Sister, I concede."

"You wouldn't have had to suffer if you had conceded earlier."

Han Yuer curled her lips, flicked her wrist, and the burly man was thrown out of the arena, landing heavily on the ground.

He lay there, greedily breathing in the air.

The feeling of almost suffocating was truly terrifying.

"The first round, match eighty-three, Han Yuer wins and advances to the second round!"

The referee announced loudly.

The crowd below cheered. Han Yuer, a beautiful and fiery woman with strength, was naturally popular in the sect.

Han Cong and Chen Feng also clapped.

Han Yuer, strutting confidently with her long legs, jumped down from the stage and saw them, exclaiming in surprise, "Father, Chen Feng, you're here?"

"Senior Sister, your skills are impressive."

Chen Feng smiled.

Han Yuer, flattered by his praise, blushed slightly and lowered her head, saying, "I should thank you. If it weren't for the whip technique you gave me, I might have lost today."

Han Cong teased, "What, not thanking me?"

Han Yuer gave him an exasperated look.

The three walked towards Han Cong's courtyard. As they walked, Han Cong said, "I modified the technique you gave Yuer to avoid detection."

"The Green Wood Sect's secret techniques falling into our Qianyuan Sect could be a big deal if it gets out. The consequences are unpredictable."

Chen Feng nodded and took note.

When they reached Han Cong's small house, Han Cong smiled and said, "Chen Feng, let's have lunch here today. Just in time, the reward from the recent hunting trip has arrived—a piece of dragon meat!"

"Dragon meat? That's a good thing." Chen Feng was moved.

A dragon was at least a Divine Gate realm powerful beast, extremely formidable, and even a hundred of him couldn't handle one.

He had never tasted dragon meat before.

Soon, the sliced dragon meat was served.

To maximize the essence and true qi it contained, the dragon meat was only lightly boiled.

The dragon meat was rough and tough, not at all delicious, but the three ate it seriously, not leaving a single piece of meat.

After eating, Chen Feng felt a surge of thick spiritual energy spread from his stomach, filling his limbs and body.

The ancient tripod vibrated slightly, as if something had been devoured, making Chen Feng feel a sudden emptiness in his heart, a bit uncomfortable.

But he couldn't say what exactly had been devoured.

After the meal, the three didn't speak but focused on adjusting their breathing.

Chen Feng finished absorbing first, gently exhaling a breath of turbid air.

A glint of joy flashed in his eyes. This dragon meat was truly extraordinary. Although it was just a piece weighing less than a pound, it had pushed his realm from the early Fourth Stage of the Later Heaven realm to nearly the middle stage.

It had advanced by a third.

Han Cong finished next, looking at Chen Feng with some surprise and saying, "I didn't expect you to absorb it so quickly, comparable to someone at the Divine Gate realm. You're truly exceptional."

Chen Feng smiled, "Maybe it's because I couldn't cultivate before and was too hungry, now I'm making up for it."

"You, you're quite amusing..."

Han Cong smiled and patted him.

"Uncle, what's wrong with Senior Sister?" Chen Feng suddenly pointed at Han Yuer.

Han Yuer was emitting white vapor, her expression pained, her eyes tightly closed, and her body convulsing. Black spots began to appear on her skin.

"Yuer is about to break through," Han Cong said happily.

"Let's go outside and wait."

Chen Feng nodded. During a breakthrough, the body expels many impurities, which are foul and dirty. Since Han Yuer was a girl, it would be inappropriate for the two of them to stay.

The two left the courtyard.

"Uncle Han, there's something I need to tell you," Chen Feng said seriously. "Today, when I faced Cui Zhen Shan, he said something..."

Chen Feng finished and said, "I suspect that Elder Sun might be targeting you!"

Han Cong's face turned ashen, and he punched the wall fiercely, "How dare they!"

"Chen Feng, this information is very important!"

"I will investigate this thoroughly!"

Han Cong said coldly, "If I find out who is behind this, I will not let them off easily!"
