"The Greedy Immortal is correct. These two Blood-devouring Armors already have owners — Princess Miao Miao and Xian Yuyin," Chu Feng said to everyone after examining them for a moment.
"How can this be?" Upon hearing his words, many people's faces twisted with frustration. By now, they all wanted Chu Feng and Xian Miao Miao to enter the Blood-devouring Slaughter Formation together — they certainly didn't want Xian Miao Miao and Xian Yuyin going instead.
"You bastard! Who gave you the right to make that decision — to custom-fit those two for me and Xian Yuyin? Did you ask for our permission?" Xian Miao Miao's little face flushed red with anger as she erupted on the spot. She was truly furious.
"Miao Miao, don't be rude," the Elven King said.
"Please calm down, Princess Miao Miao. This matter has nothing to do with me — it was my senior brother's decision."
"But please don't blame him, either. At the time, no one knew that a certain young friend Chu Feng would suddenly appear halfway through. Everyone assumed you and Young Master Yuyin would be the ones going, so… sigh, it's useless to say anything now. The situation is set. If the princess wishes to place blame, blame me."
The Greedy Immortal dropped to one knee with a thud. His display appeared loyal and righteous, but to many, it was nothing more than an act.
In truth, after Chu Feng had spoken those words, the Greedy Immortal was practically bursting with joy inside — because it proved that his boundary arts were truly impressive. He had managed to fool even Chu Feng.
Meanwhile, Xian Yuyin and his father, though outwardly showing no reaction, were equally delighted on the inside. When they recalled how domineering and untouchable Chu Feng had seemed the night before, the satisfaction they felt now was even sweeter. They had finally gotten to see Chu Feng lose face.
"There's no need to worry, Miao Miao. These two Blood-devouring Armors were indeed prepared for you and Young Master Yuyin, but with just a few modifications, I'll be able to wear one," Chu Feng said suddenly.
"Ah?" The moment these words left Chu Feng's lips, not only Xian Yuyin and his father but even Xian Miao Miao and the other Ancient Elves were taken aback.
"Chu Feng, is that really true?" Xian Miao Miao asked eagerly once more.
"Of course it's true. It's nothing difficult," Chu Feng replied with a smile and a nod.
"Young friend Chu Feng, please don't act rashly! My senior brother and I spent many days forging these Blood-devouring Armors. I understand their properties better than anyone. They are already finished products — if you attempt to modify them on your own, the Blood-devouring Armors will lose their original function."
"Even if you succeed in wearing one, once you enter the Blood-devouring Slaughter Formation and the armor fails to protect you, what use will it be? It would be nothing short of a suicide mission!" The Greedy Immortal appeared to have been fully prepared for this, ratting off an entire speech without hesitation.
Hearing this, Xian Miao Miao was dumbfounded. Even if she wanted to explode in anger, she didn't know how — because she couldn't tell whether the Greedy Immortal was telling the truth or lying.
If it was a lie, that would be one thing.
But what if he was telling the truth? Then Chu Feng entering the Blood-devouring Slaughter Formation wearing the Blood-devouring Armor would essentially be walking straight to his death.
Neither Xian Miao Miao nor anyone present could bear the responsibility for that.
So at that moment, this was not merely a concern for Xian Miao Miao and Princess Ling Yue — it was something that even the elders and protectors deeply worried about.
The only two who remained composed were Chu Feng himself and the Elven King. Chu Feng was fearless and unflappable, while the Elven King remained silent throughout, calm and indifferent, as though he were simply watching a play unfold.
Chu Feng smiled again and said, "The Greedy Immortal worries too much. These Blood-devouring Armors aren't as difficult to handle as you imagine. There's no need for you to concern yourself — I can manage it on my own."
