As the crown prince of the Radiant Sun Empire, Yu Fei had possessed countless women—hundreds, if not thousands. Yet, none had ever truly captured his heart. Even the most beautiful women in the empire, whom he had taken as cultivation furnaces, had failed to move him.
But the moment he laid eyes on Ye Muqing, he knew his heart had been stolen. He had once believed that no woman in the world could stir his emotions, not even Li Tianxin, the renowned beauty of the Heaven Heart Sect, whom he had only seen as a tool.
Ye Muqing, however, was different. With just one glance, Yu Fei knew she was the one. She had stolen his heart, and he was certain that even his father, the Radiant Sun Emperor, would be unable to remain calm in her presence. To put it bluntly, his father was nothing more than a powerful old lecher. The Radiant Sun Emperor's harem was the largest among the three empires, a fact that spoke volumes.
Yu Fei's gaze was locked onto Ye Muqing, his eyes burning with desire. A woman like her could only belong to him. Only someone of her caliber was worthy of him!
In the sky above, Wang Feng noticed the lustful gazes directed at Ye Muqing and frowned. He turned to her and said gently, "From now on, would you mind wearing a veil?"
"Of course, husband. If you say so, then I will," Ye Muqing replied with a smile, her eyes curving like crescent moons, radiating charm.
When Ye Muqing smiled, the experts below were once again captivated. Her smile was like a gentle breeze, warming the heart, or like the sound of flowing water from a mountain stream, cleansing the soul.
The beautiful Daoist-robed woman from the Heaven Heart Sect glared with resentment. Another wretched woman! But, heh, her fate would likely be even worse than that of Li Tianxin.
"Are you the sect master of the Divine Immortal Sect?" Lin Tiancheng steadied his mind and looked at Wang Feng, his voice heavy.
His words snapped the crowd out of their daze, reminding them that the three sects were currently besieging the Divine Immortal Sect.
"And who are you?" Wang Feng looked down at Lin Tiancheng, his tone indifferent.
Wang Feng stood with his hands behind his back, exuding an air of nobility and grandeur, despite not releasing any aura.
"I am the sect master of the Flying Feather Sect!" Lin Tiancheng also stood with his hands behind his back, his chest puffed out with pride. As he spoke, he didn't even look at Wang Feng but instead focused on the graceful figure beside him.
"Oh, never heard of it."
Wang Feng shrugged, his tone dismissive.
"A frog at the bottom of a well wouldn't know the majesty of a dragon like the Flying Feather Sect!" Lin Tiancheng's face twisted with anger, but when he glanced at the beauty beside Wang Feng, he suppressed his rage and sneered.
Getting angry would only lower his dignity. In front of such a beauty, he had to maintain some decorum.
"So, you're the one who threatened to attack my Divine Immortal Sect?" Wang Feng narrowed his eyes, his voice cold.
"And what if I did? What will you do about it?" Lin Tiancheng sneered, standing even taller.
A mere sect master of a small sect dared to act so arrogantly in front of him? Truly, when there are no tigers in the mountains, monkeys claim to be kings! No, this so-called Divine Immortal Sect wasn't even a monkey—it was nothing more than an ant.
"And what about you two?" Wang Feng turned to Tian Sang and Shao Chen.
"A mosquito bites a tiger. Though the tiger feels no pain and the mosquito offers little meat, the tiger must still eat it. The tiger's dignity cannot be challenged," Shao Chen said with a faint smile.
"Though the mosquito offers little meat, it's a nice change of pace," Tian Sang added with a grin.
The conversation between Wang Feng and the others seemed casual, like a friendly chat, but the onlookers could feel a chilling killing intent gradually filling the air.
The major sect experts looked at Wang Feng with pity, while the disciples of the sects lamented the fate of the fairy-like woman beside him.
"I've never been one for grand displays. I've always preferred to keep a low profile. But since you've forced my hand, I'll have to oblige," Wang Feng sighed, shaking his head as if helpless.
Hearing this, at least half of the crowd rolled their eyes.
Low profile? Really?
Who was it that caused a scene at the Qin Yun Pavilion? Who severed Elder Gui Xiong's arm with a single sword strike? Who killed Feng Mo of the Azure Sea Sect? Who killed Ye Feng of the Flying Feather Sect?
In just a few days since arriving in Divine Arrival City, Wang Feng had managed to offend the three top sects. His ability to stir up trouble was unmatched in the Radiant Sun Empire.
Lin Tiancheng and the others shook their heads, amused. This man was clearly living in a dream. With such a sect master, it was no wonder the members of the Divine Immortal Sect were all a bit delusional.
"Divine Immortal Sect elders, where are you?" Wang Feng stood in the sky, his hands behind his back, and shouted. His voice echoed throughout the square.
"Ximen Chuixue, here!"
"Ye Gucheng, here!"
"Zhu Yuyan, here!"
"Xiao Shiyilang, here!"
"Monk Wuxiang, here!"
As Wang Feng's voice rang out, five deep voices responded in unison. Immediately, five figures appeared before Wang Feng, bowing respectfully.
At this moment, Ximen Chuixue and the others no longer held back. Their peak Profound Sovereign auras erupted, and five terrifying pressures swept across the Divine Arrival City square. It felt as if an invisible mountain had descended, pressing down on everyone.
Silence!
Dead silence!
Lin Tiancheng was stunned!
Tian Sang was dumbfounded!
Shao Chen was shocked!
Even General Chen Lie's smile froze, and the Daoist-robed woman from the Heaven Heart Sect's sneer vanished.
Everyone's minds went blank. The overwhelming pressure made their bodies tremble uncontrollably, as if they were trapped in quicksand, unable to move.
"An ancient major sect!!!"
"From now on, the Qin Yun Pavilion will do everything in its power to befriend the Divine Immortal Sect!" Elder Qin Sheng, at the edge of the platform, nearly pulled out his beard in shock. He took a deep breath, his expression one of awe, before turning to Elder Zhu Qin beside him.
However, Elder Zhu Qin didn't respond. She was staring blankly at the five figures in the sky, her mouth slightly agape, her chest heaving with shock.
"H-how is this possible?"
Lin Tiancheng exclaimed, his voice trembling, his eyes filled with fear for the first time.
Five peak Profound Sovereigns! What kind of terrifying power was this?
How could this unknown Divine Immortal Sect possess five peak Profound Sovereigns?
Lin Tiancheng's exclamation snapped everyone out of their stupor. When they regained their senses, they collectively gasped.
"Gasp!"
"Am I dreaming?"
"Five peak Profound Sovereigns? How is the Divine Immortal Sect this powerful?"
"Good heavens! No major sect in the entire empire has this many peak Profound Sovereigns, right?"
"Terrifying! I thought the Divine Immortal Sect would be crushed by the three sects, but they've suddenly revealed such terrifying strength?"
The crowd erupted into frantic discussions, trying to process their shock. The disdain they had felt for the Divine Immortal Sect earlier was now replaced by sheer awe.
Five peak Profound Sovereigns!
Even the three empires would think twice before taking action against such a force!
In the three empires, a sect with one peak Profound Sovereign was considered a top-tier major sect. A sect with two peak Profound Sovereigns could dominate the region.
No one could have imagined how terrifying a sect with five peak Profound Sovereigns would be.
"Kill!"
Wang Feng stood with his hands behind his back, gazing down at the crowd like a god. He paid no attention to their shock and issued the command coldly.
Boom!
As soon as Wang Feng spoke, Ximen Chuixue and the others unleashed a chilling killing intent. The temperature in the square plummeted, sending shivers down everyone's spines.
Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng slowly drew their swords.
An inch...
Two inches!
With each inch drawn, their sword auras grew stronger. By the time their swords were fully unsheathed, their bodies were enveloped in a cold, razor-sharp sword intent.
Zhu Yuyan drew her Shadow Empress Sword, Xiao Shiyilang wielded his Deer-Slaying Saber, and Monk Wuxiang summoned his Wuxiang Meditation Beads.
Then, the five of them descended like shooting stars, charging toward the experts of the three sects. Countless sword energies erupted from Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng, raining down like a storm of blades.
Xiao Shiyilang slashed out several saber energies, each one tearing through the void.
Zhu Yuyan, holding her sword, performed a few elegant maneuvers. Black energy coiled around her flower-like sword energies, which fell slowly but distorted the surrounding space.
Monk Wuxiang didn't bother with fancy moves. He simply hurled his Wuxiang Meditation Beads, which spun rapidly, each bead glowing with golden light. In an instant, the beads disappeared, leaving only a golden ring that crashed down with immense force.
"Join forces and resist!"
Lin Tiancheng's face turned pale. Without time to think, he roared and leaped into the air, his peak Profound Sovereign aura erupting.
In his left hand, a massive blade appeared.
"Boom!"
The blade struck the ground, causing the entire high platform to tremble.
Lin Tiancheng gripped the blade tightly, his profound energy surging and enveloping the weapon, giving it an overwhelming, heavy aura.
Without hesitation, Lin Tiancheng swung the blade. A terrifying crescent-shaped blade energy shot out, carving a massive fissure into the ground before him.
Tian Sang and Shao Chen also reacted, unleashing their own powerful techniques. The Profound Sovereign experts of the three sects erupted into action.
