"Ahh—!"
Screams rang out simultaneously. The two women of the night, upon seeing the vicious woman's miserable state, fainted dead away on the spot from sheer shock.
"You, you you you..."
When Yue Lian saw Chu Feng and Yue Ling, his face was filled with utter disbelief. For a moment, his mind descended into chaos.
Yue Ling appearing here was understandable, but why was Chu Feng also present?
However, Chu Feng couldn't be bothered with talk. Wielding his formation sword, he thrust it straight toward Yue Hui's Dantian.
Chu Feng intended to cripple his cultivation first, then take his life.
But just as the blade pierced the flesh and before it could fully penetrate the Dantian, Chu Feng felt his sword meet resistance.
It was as if a steel plate were hidden within Yue Hui's Dantian.
No, not a steel plate—how could a steel plate block Chu Feng's strike?
It was an incredibly powerful formation power concealed within Yue Hui's body.
Hummm—
Sure enough, with a radiant flash from Yue Hui, a protective formation barrier emerged from his body. It not only shielded Yue Hui but forcibly ejected the sword that Chu Feng had already stabbed in.
"A guardian formation?"
As a Spirit World Master, Chu Feng recognized it instantly. It was a guardian formation, similar to the one Old Cat had placed within Young Master Wolf's body.
The type that could only protect, possessing no offensive capability.
But its protective power was far stronger than that particular formation.
This must have been laid by Yue Ling and Yue Hui's father—Yue Lian.
Chu Feng guessed that if Yue Lian hadn't gone far, his projected figure might also appear.
Hummm—
As expected, the formation soon shifted, and a phantom image projected from it.
It was a middle-aged man.
"I am Yue Lian! Who dares to harm my son?"
The middle-aged man's image materialized and immediately let out a furious roar.
"I know you're Yue Lian. It's your son I'm killing," Chu Feng said.
After his appearance, Yue Lian naturally surveyed his surroundings. Upon seeing, he too was shocked, because he recognized Yue Ling from her figure.
He certainly recognized Chu Feng as well, but... how could Chu Feng be together with Yue Ling?
"Why are you together?" Yue Lian asked.
"Husband, come back quickly! Destroy this brat and that demoness!"
"It was that demoness who brought this little beast here! He wants to kill both me and Hui'er!"
From her corner, the vicious woman let out a weak and incredibly aggrieved voice.
"You... you... could you be...?"
Since he could only view the scene through the formation and it wasn't his true body, his perception was limited. The vicious woman's face was completely ruined and unrecognizable, her clothes in tatters. If she hadn't spoken, Yue Lian truly wouldn't have been able to tell this was his wife.
"Husband, who else could it be? It's all that little beast's doing. He tortured me horribly!" the vicious woman wailed.
"Yue Ling, you truly have a vicious heart! Had I known this, I should never have let you live!"
At this, Yue Lian was also furious, glaring viciously at Yue Ling. Even though it was only a projected phantom, his rage was palpable.
Hearing Yue Lian say this, Yue Ling froze completely. Although she already knew her father was not a good person, actually facing such a father still dealt a tremendous shock to her heart.
