69: A gentleman holding a sword does not kill ants

“There’s no problem? That’s not right, you didn’t seem to say that just now.”

“Does that mean you’re not dissatisfied with being second place?”

“Yes, I, Han Feng, am not dissatisfied.”

“Then you have no objection to this person’s death?”

Hearing this, Han Feng’s peripheral vision, still lowered, swept over the fatty’s corpse again. His face showed a fleeting mix of anger, shame, sadness, and a tearful expression. After repeating “I must avenge him” ten thousand times in his heart, he replied again:

“Yes, I have no objection.”

At this moment, he was no longer as arrogant as before, no longer the returning Genius who felt he could defeat anyone.

It was a simple conversation, but with those two sentences, Han Feng had already squeezed out all his strength to answer.

The anger in his heart and the injuries on his body were one part, but more of it came from the pressure above his head. His mind was constantly trembling, urging him to run! Run! Run! Run! Run! Run! Run!

Under such immense pressure, it was already difficult for him to utter complete sentences.

One could even say his Mental Energy far surpassed that of an ordinary person.

Jun Lingxiao drew the sword hanging at his waist, then put it back. He glanced at Su Lianxue beside him, chuckled softly, and finally withdrew his pressure.

A gentleman wields a sword, but does not slay ants.

Although the protagonist was clearly not an ant, killing him without any resistance would be too dull.

Moreover, the Karma of the Mortal Sword was not on Han Feng.

The rift between the male and female leads was a good show, but this show still lacked a few important spectators.

“I’m tired.”

“Get out.”

As Jun Lingxiao’s words fell, Han Feng immediately got up as if granted a great pardon, hugging the fatty’s corpse and hurrying away.

He had to bury the fatty first, then quickly discuss with Senior what to do about this matter.

Returning to the high platform, Jun Lingxiao’s first words nearly made Su Lianxue lose her footing.

“Invite everyone from the Han Family over, not one less.”

Jun Lingxiao completely disregarded Su Lianxue still standing there, turning his head to Jun Zizhuo and saying.

Jun Zizhuo nodded and immediately summoned the hidden guards to give orders.

Su Lianxue’s face instantly turned incredibly ugly. She gritted her teeth and squeezed out a sentence: “Your Highness, you said… you wouldn’t implicate Han Feng…!”

When they arrived, he said he wouldn't implicate Han Feng, but now?

Not only did he use her hand to kill Han Feng’s friend, and beat him to such a state, but now it seemed he was going to exterminate the entire Han Family!

Jun Lingxiao was momentarily stunned by this, as if he had just remembered, and slapped his head. Just as Su Lianxue saw a glimmer of hope, what followed was utter despair.

“Right, right, I almost forgot.”

“Also, invite everyone named Su over, not one less.”

She looked at the young man before her in despair, while her father, the Holy Lord behind her, had already knelt down.

“Your Highness!! Your Highness, please spare our lives!”

“Someone! Quick!! Quickly tie up everyone from the Han Family!! If even one is missing, I’ll kill all of you!!!”

No sooner had Jun Lingxiao’s words fallen than a powerful, top-tier expert appeared from the Void Realm. He looked at the Holy Lord as if he were looking at a dead man, scaring the Holy Lord into kneeling immediately, and he didn’t forget to order the Elders behind him.

What Holy Lord’s dignity? It was utterly worthless in the face of his own life!

Even Su Lianxue, pulled by her father, knelt on the ground, subconsciously looking up, meeting… Jun Lingxiao’s half-smiling eyes.

“Look.”

“This is the angle you should have when you look at me.”

He looked down, speaking lightly, not concealing the coldness in his brows.

“Su Lianxue, your ability to stand by my side and speak a few words doesn’t mean you have the corresponding qualifications; it’s entirely dependent on my mood.”

“If I’m in a good mood, you can stand and speak a few words. If I’m in a bad mood, you are no different from them; you’ll also have to kneel to speak.”

“Understood?”

As these words fell, Su Lianxue gave a bitter smile and could only lower her head in assent.

Only when Su Lianxue lowered her head did Jun Lingxiao turn around with satisfaction, gazing meaningfully at Han Feng’s departing back.

“Implicate?”

“Do I need such a low-level excuse to target someone?”

“I just don’t like Han Feng, and I just want to deal with him.”

“Tell me, how is this implicating him?”

After speaking, Jun Lingxiao’s peripheral glance at Su Lianxue made her feel as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, unable to muster any thought of resistance.

Indeed, he hadn’t implicated anyone; after all, his target had been Han Feng from the very beginning.

And that glance just now also made him understand what Han Feng’s Golden Finger was.

With his Dao Heart Clear, he clearly saw a small cauldron in Han Feng’s Dantian, and inside the small cauldron… was a drop of Emperor’s essence blood.

At the foot of the Labor Peak, Han Feng’s hut.

“Senior? Is he really that powerful?”

Han Feng asked the Senior in his mind while biting a white cloth and wrapping it around himself with one hand.

“That is natural. It’s a good thing you handled it properly, otherwise, you would have surely died on the spot.”

A sigh of emotion came from his mind. While feeling lingering fear, he also began to ponder why such an existence would come to this Small World.

“Senior, I don’t understand. Does he really dare to act in front of so many people? Guan Xue Holy Land wouldn’t tolerate him making a move, would they?” Although Han Feng narrowly escaped, his mind was full of questions.

Guan Xue Holy Land is one of the four Great Holy Lands of the Central Continent! Can he, an adult from the Upper Realm, just kill innocent people without consequence?

This was a huge blow to his worldview.

“Tolerate him making a move? Heh heh, Han Feng, you haven’t left this Small World, and I was afraid you’d aim too high, so I haven’t told you much about the Upper Realm before. It’s not your fault for thinking this way.”

“The Holy Land you speak of is nothing more than an ant in the eyes of that young man just now, and even the smallest among all ants.”

“Considering the Fang Family’s sworn enemy and the Family that uses swords, I’ve thought it over and over, and there’s only one possibility for the destruction of my clan.”

“The Jun Family.”

“Jun Family members possess a clear Sword Heart and sword might like a prison. Remember that person’s aura from just now. If you encounter a similar one in the future, walk a wide berth.”

“You may not know about the Jun Family’s influence in the Lower Realm, but in the Upper Realm, you must know that the Jun Family is all-powerful. Let alone you, even your Holy Land, or even this Small World, a young master from a collateral branch of the Jun Family, even a Middle-tier Family, could destroy it with a flick of his hand. The Jun Family has such power.”

“Not to mention the legendary Ten Directions Immortal Court, which countless people yearn for.”

Han Feng listened to all this in silence. He looked at the tombstone he had erected for the fatty in his courtyard, his heart filled with shock.

“Upper Realm… Ten Directions Immortal Court…”

“Then Senior, what should I do now?”

Finally, Han Feng sighed helplessly and asked for help.

“Now…?”

“Run quickly, run before he makes a move against you, the farther the better!”

“As long as you’re alive, there’s still hope. It’s also thanks to me being the person in charge of the Family treasury. Fortunately, this small cauldron protected me, preserving a wisp of my remnant soul. Those whose Realm was even higher than mine didn’t even leave a remnant soul!”

“This small cauldron is my Family’s most treasured possession. Legend says it was used by a Great Emperor. Its specific functions will have to be discovered by you in the future.”

“For now, don’t even think about revenge. It’s impossible. That will have to be for later…”

“Run?”

Senior was still giving endless instructions, but Han Feng felt a little lost the moment he heard it, as if he was hearing this word for the first time. Even when his cultivation was completely lost and he was being hunted, he hadn’t thought of running.

But now… to avoid implicating his Family, it seemed he had no choice but to leave.

However, before leaving… Han Feng thought, and Su Lianxue’s pretty face unconsciously appeared in his mind.

Su Lianxue’s expression just now clearly showed she was being coerced! He only cared about two people. The fatty was dead, and Su Lianxue couldn’t have any more accidents!

He wanted to take her with him!
