"A Ghost Fiend Beast?!"
Looking at the figure on the ground, everyone blurted out in unison. At a single glance, they all recognized it as the very Ghost Fiend Beast they had been desperately searching for.
"This—this, you killed it?" The burly man asked Chu Feng with a face full of shock.
"Who else, you?" Chu Feng shot back with a cold smirk, glancing sideways at the burly man. The earlier mockery the burly man had thrown at him? Those four words sent it all right back.
Upon hearing that, the burly man's expression changed, his face flushing with embarrassment.
After all, he knew full well that with his strength, there was no way he could have slain the Ghost Fiend Beast.
"Wow, Chu Feng, you're seriously insane! Do you have any idea how much effort we put into tracking this thing down? Even Senior Luo Tian and Senior Luo Di couldn't manage to kill it — they had it slip away from them multiple times!"
Tang Ying was practically glowing with excitement. The Luo Tian and Luo Di he mentioned were clearly the twin elders, both sixth rank Half Ancestors.
"Hmph." However, upon hearing those words, the two brothers Luo Tian and Luo Di simultaneously let out a cold snort, their displeasure evident.
Luo Tian then addressed Chu Feng: "Little friend, one should be honest."
"What do you mean by that?" Chu Feng asked.
"You know perfectly well what I mean. This Ghost Fiend Beast is not only a fourth rank Half Ancestor — it possesses the ability to fight two ranks above its level, making its true combat power equivalent to that of a sixth rank Half Ancestor."
"And you — you are merely a first rank Half Ancestor. At your age, having such cultivation is already quite remarkable, but it is nowhere near sufficient to kill this Ghost Fiend Beast."
"Tell us the truth. Who actually killed this Ghost Fiend Beast? Where did you find its corpse?" Luo Tian asked coldly. Earlier, he hadn't even bothered to look at Chu Feng, but the moment the Ghost Fiend Beast appeared, he already regarded Chu Feng as a threat.
"That's right — his strength is considerable, but the Ghost Fiend Beast is far more powerful. There's no way he could have killed it." At the same time, the others present had caught on and began voicing their skepticism.
At that moment, Chu Feng, who had been sitting on the ground, slowly rose to his feet. After casually brushing the dust off his backside, he began walking toward Luo Tian and Luo Di, one steady step at a time.
When Chu Feng was less than two meters from the pair, he finally stopped and spoke: "I found this corpse here in the Celestial Light Mountain. As for who killed the Ghost Fiend Beast… the person is standing right in front of you."
"Hahaha! Little friend, I'm not trying to belittle you, but your cultivation speaks for itself — the gap between you and this Ghost Fiend Beast is enormous."
"It's not that we two brothers don't believe you. Go ahead and ask anyone here — who among them would?" Luo Tian and Luo Di burst into laughter, their smiles dripping with sarcasm.
"Hahaha…" At the same time, all the Tang family members who had arrived later joined in the laughter.
Zzzzzzzzz— But right at that moment, a sudden flash of lightning blazed through Chu Feng's eyes. The instant the Thunder Armor and Thunder Wings materialized around him, his aura surged from the first rank of Half Ancestor all the way up to the third rank.
Immediately after, a thunderous boom erupted as a tremendous wave of oppressive might erupted from Chu Feng's body, slamming directly into the two elders, Luo Tian and Luo Di.
Caught off guard at such close range, and with the pressure overwhelmingly powerful, the two brothers hadn't even registered what was happening before the force struck them full-on and blasted them several meters away.
Bang bang bang bang bang— Two aged figures shot backward like arrows loosed from their bow, hurtling through the air at blinding speed. Everything in their path — whether massive boulders or towering trees — was pierced clean through, leaving utter devastation in their wake.
And yet even so, the two of them didn't stop until they had been flung a full several hundred thousand meters.
"Heavens!"
The sudden turn of events left everyone stunned, their jaws hanging open. When they turned their gazes back to Chu Feng, forget the others — even the burly man who had looked down on Chu Feng from the very beginning wore an expression of grave solemnity.
After all, those two were genuine sixth rank Half Ancestors — yet they had been blown away by Chu Feng's aura alone.
