This person was also clad in a black robe, his attire not all that different from the Ghost-Face Old Demon's.
But the impression he gave was entirely unlike the Ghost-Face Old Demon's.
The Ghost-Face Old Demon radiated a towering aura of malice — one glance was enough to tell he was no good person.
This person, however, appeared to be a middle-aged man who looked thoroughly amiable, especially those eyes of his, which actually gave off a kindly, approachable feeling.
Yet when Chu Feng looked at this person, his heart was already churning with extreme unease.
Chu Feng could sense that this person was not devoid of ruthlessness. On the contrary, his vicious nature might even surpass the Ghost-Face Old Demon's — he was simply far better at concealing it, which was why Chu Feng could not pick up on it.
If the Ghost-Face Old Demon was merely a hungry wolf, then this person was a fierce tiger draped in a lamb's skin.
"Chu Feng, run. Now!"
Suddenly, the Queen's voice rang out in Chu Feng's ears, thick with urgency.
Chu Feng was not the only one who sensed the danger — the Queen had sensed it too.
Even though the Grand Battle Formation that Chu Feng commanded could crush everyone within the Martial Ancestor realm, it would struggle to defeat this person.
After all, this person was a True Immortal powerhouse.
"No good. There's no escape."
Chu Feng shook his head. Although the other party had not unleashed the oppressive might of a True Immortal, he had clearly not come with good intentions, and his strength was genuinely terrifying — greater than anyone else present.
In front of this person, there was simply no way for Chu Feng to flee, nor could anyone else here escape, however unwilling he might be. Chu Feng had already steeled himself to the possibility that he might die here.
"Hahahaha! Chu Feng, no matter how powerful your formation is, it can't hope to contend with a True Immortal!"
"You fools, actually pinning your hopes on trash like Chu Feng — are your faces red now? You never would have guessed that the Soul Infant Sect actually has a True Immortal standing guard!"
"It's too late for regrets now. A True Immortal doesn't even need to lift a finger — a single breath would be enough to blow all of you to death!"
Kou Kang, that petty man drunk on his sudden advantage, pointed at the crowd and burst into hearty laughter.
He was absolutely thrilled. He had originally assumed the Ghost-Face Old Demon was the Soul Infant Sect's strongest. But now, to his surprise, the sect actually had a True Immortal!
A True Immortal — that was the absolute pinnacle of existence in the Hundred Refinements Ordinary Realm.
The Soul Infant Sect, a force he had never even heard of before, actually had a True Immortal standing guard. That meant the Soul Infant Sect's strength already placed it among the first-tier powers.
One of the strongest forces in the entire Hundred Refinements Ordinary Realm!
Just think about it — he, a mere disciple of a second-tier power, had by sheer fortune become part of a first-tier power, and moreover had been personally chosen by someone like the Ghost-Face Old Demon. To say he had achieved greatness in a single step was no exaggeration.
The more Kou Kang thought about it, the happier he became, congratulating himself on his sharp instincts.
Abandoning the Three Star Hall and choosing the Soul Infant Sect — that had to be the single most correct decision he had ever made in his entire life.
"The Soul Infant Sect has a True Immortal standing guard — that makes it a first-tier power in the Hundred Refinements Ordinary Realm!"
"You ants, daring to overreach and oppose such a force — you're practically begging for death!"
"Chu Feng, you may be a heaven-blessed genius, but you're nothing but a clown who deserves to die! You brought this on yourself!!"
After Kou Kang started in, more and more people began hurling insults at Chu Feng and at those who had refused to kneel before the Ghost-Face Old Demon.
Of course, every one of those who opened their mouths to spew venom were the same people who had been against Chu Feng from the start — the ones who had declared that newborn infants being refined deserved their fate.
They had already crossed the line. Before, they had still worried about potential consequences, but now that they had discovered the Soul Infant Sect had a True Immortal at its back, thoughts of joining the sect began to bloom in their minds.
To gain entry into the Soul Infant Sect, they naturally had to spare no effort in tearing down Chu Feng and his allies, flattering the Soul Infant Sect and its True Immortal to win a favorable impression.
But as Kou Kang watched more and more people piling on against Chu Feng, he grew displeased. Unwilling to be outdone, he pointed at Chu Feng once more and, in a voice dripping with venomous scorn, began:
