After Chu Feng finished speaking, Elder Tuoba of the Star Fall Sacred Ground and the silver-haired elder of the Nine Profound Sect exchanged a glance.
A trace of coldness flickered through both their eyes.
"Elder Tuoba, the Inheritance of the Arrow Dao Venerable is no trivial matter. I believe that the immortal-grade weapons Chu Feng gave to Miss Xia earlier were merely a drop in the bucket."
"And all of that originally belonged to your Star Fall Sacred Ground and the Nine Profound Sect. Yet now this Chu Feng has claimed it all for himself — and with such righteous indignation, no less."
"Forgive my bluntness, but he clearly does not have the slightest regard for your Star Fall Sacred Ground or the Nine Profound Sect."
Zhao Kuangfeng was the one who spoke up.
He was obviously trying to sow discord, hoping to use the strength of the Nine Profound Sect and the Star Fall Sacred Ground to deal with Chu Feng.
In truth, even without his meddling, neither the Nine Profound Sect nor the Star Fall Sacred Ground would let Chu Feng go.
At the very least, they would not allow him to leave with the Inheritance of the Arrow Dao Venerable.
"Brother Zhao, might I use your formation to have a word with Chu Feng?" Elder Tuoba asked Zhao Kuangfeng.
"Of course."
As Zhao Kuangfeng spoke, he began activating the formation.
Inside the Inheritance Cave at that moment, all of the younger generation had their eyes fixed on Chu Feng, their gazes filled with astonishment — and Xia Yun'er was no exception.
She truly had not expected Chu Feng to openly provoke the Star Fall Sacred Ground and the Nine Profound Sect like this.
But Chu Feng had his reasons for doing so. This was absolutely not because he was tired of living.
Rather, Chu Feng knew full well that the Star Fall Sacred Ground and the Nine Profound Sect would never let him leave unscathed.
Whether or not he admitted to obtaining the Inheritance, they would not let him go peacefully.
Chu Feng was certain that even if he said the ninth Inheritance Point was empty, neither the Star Fall Sacred Ground nor the Nine Profound Sect would believe him.
Rather than sit and wait for death, Chu Feng might as well make his position clear from the start. At worst, it would end in mutual destruction — but even if things came to that, Chu Feng felt it would not necessarily be him who perished.
Besides, the Arrow Dao Venerable himself had declared that the Inheritance belonged to Chu Feng. Why on earth should he share it with anyone?
Sharing it with them would be a gesture of goodwill. Not sharing it would be entirely within reason.
And in Chu Feng's view, the only person present worthy of sharing it with him was Xia Yun'er.
Apart from her, no one else would take a single thing from him.
Pfft— But just then, a stifled laugh suddenly escaped.
It was Asura Zhao Kun. After Chu Feng had appeared, Asura Zhao Kun had not even dared to meet his gaze, terrified that Chu Feng would demand he change his name. But after seeing Chu Feng openly challenge the Star Fall Sacred Ground and the Nine Profound Sect, he simply could not hold back his laughter — because in his eyes, Chu Feng was being spectacularly overconfident.
"What's the matter, Brother Zhao? Could it be you're eager to change your name already?" Sure enough, the moment Asura Zhao Kun let out that laugh, Chu Feng directed his ill-intentioned gaze straight at him.
"Change my name? Change what name?" Asura Zhao Kun's face turned ashen as he played dumb.
He would never change it. He would sooner die than do so. After all, if he actually adopted that kind of name, he would be the laughingstock of the entire world — and what would be the point of living then?
"Oh my, looks like someone wants to welch on a bet," Chu Feng said with a cold smile. His figure then blurred forward, and in an instant he appeared before Asura Zhao Kun, delivering a kick that sent the man sprawling to the ground.
Chu Feng placed one foot on Asura Zhao Kun's chest, then clenched his right hand. In the span of a heartbeat, a barrier sword materialized in his grasp.
"That is—?!!!"
The moment that barrier sword appeared, not only did the younger generation inside the Inheritance Cave stare in shock, but even the elders outside the cave had their expressions change dramatically.
They could all recognize it — the barrier power surging from Chu Feng's barrier sword was at the Venerable rank.
It was already known to all that Chu Feng had become a Venerable-robed Spirit World Master.
"A Venerable-robed Spirit World Master — is this the Inheritance that Chu Feng obtained?"
"Damn it.()"
