Chapter 4046 Deceiving Everyone — Chapter 4048

"It seems you possess yet another treasure on your person."

"Is it the same one used to suppress the Clan Master of the Linghu Heavenly Clan?"

Even though he already knew that Chu Feng possessed the power to restrain the envoy of Dragon City, he remained perfectly composed and brimming with confidence. While displaying his calculating nature, he also made his disdain for Chu Feng quite evident.

"Heh…" Chu Feng let out a faint laugh, then said, "If you want to know, come and try for yourself."

"Posturing."

Wuming Doutian was utterly dismissive. Then he continued:

"Chu Feng, do you truly believe that we fled back then because we feared the Linghu Heavenly Clan?"

"Do you think I only returned to reap the spoils after the Linghu Heavenly Clan was driven off?"

"If that is what you think, then you underestimate my Wuming Clan far too much."

"I, Wuming Doutian, am no coward."

Boom—

The moment those words left his mouth, a tremendous wave of pressure erupted from within his body.

That pressure was immensely powerful, instantly flooding heaven and earth and crashing down upon every single person present.

And upon sensing that pressure, the expressions of everyone changed dramatically.

They could all feel just how powerful Wuming Doutian's aura had become.

Wuming Doutian's cultivation was an entirely different beast now compared to before.

Even if the Clan Master of the Linghu Heavenly Clan were still here, he would be no match whatsoever.

Because the cultivation that Wuming Doutian now possessed was that of a Rank Three Sovereign!!!

"Rank Three Sovereign — the Domain Lord's cultivation has actually risen once more."

"Incredible. As expected of the Domain Lord. At this level of cultivation, even the Linghu Heavenly Clan's Clan Master would have been completely unable to contend with him."

"So it turns out he didn't flee back then — he went into closed-door cultivation."

"After his cultivation improved, he returned to deal with the Linghu Heavenly Clan."

"As expected, the Lord of the Star Domain is still the Lord of the Star Domain. Everything is under his control."

"Sure, the Linghu Heavenly Clan was driven off. But even if they hadn't been, even if they had taken the position of Star Domain Lord, they would have been no match for the Wuming Clan. It was only a matter of time before they were crushed."

After sensing that pressure, the crowd erupted into commotion once more, with every faction buzzing with discussion.

But there was one voice that rang out in unanimous agreement — praise for Wuming Doutian.

Only now did they realize that the Wuming Clan's retreat from before had been a strategic withdrawal.

They had not conceded defeat. On the contrary, they had possessed the ability to reclaim everything that was rightfully theirs.

Wuming Doutian's current cultivation alone was proof of that.

After sensing Wuming Doutian's cultivation, all eyes turned toward Chu Feng.

They wanted to see Chu Feng humiliated.

They figured that if Wuming Doutian had still been a Rank Two Sovereign, perhaps Chu Feng — based on how he had faced the Linghu Heavenly Clan's Clan Master that day — could genuinely have put up a fight.

But now, Wuming Doutian was a Rank Three Sovereign.

What could Chu Feng possibly do this time?

"Chu Feng, a wise man knows when the odds are against him."

"For the sake of your grandfather and your father, if you hand over that invitation letter now, I can let this matter slide and not hold it against a junior."

Wuming Doutian addressed Chu Feng.

He was thoroughly pleased with himself.

In his mind, having revealed his cultivation, victory was already firmly in his grasp.

"Heh…"

Hearing those words, Chu Feng simply smiled faintly.

Then, with a flick of his robes—

Boom—

A vast and overwhelming pressure erupted from within Chu Feng's body.

In that instant, Wuming Doutian, the envoy of Dragon City, and every single person present were struck with utter astonishment.

Chu Feng's cultivation had also reached Rank Three Sovereign.
