"Don't be angry just yet. Chu Feng coming here is actually a good thing. Rest assured, we will help you seize the Celestial Immortal Sword back. When that happens, the Celestial Immortal Sword will still belong to your Ximen Imperial Clan, and as for Chu Feng... he will most certainly die." The other three elders said, wearing smiles on their faces.
Among those who were most excited to learn of Chu Feng's arrival, they topped the list. They had laid an inescapable net, and the one they had been waiting for was none other than Chu Feng. Now that Chu Feng had come, there was absolutely no chance of escape.
Gulp— Inside the fortress, Lajiao and the other two swallowed hard.
Those outside the fortress could not see them, but they could see everything outside. They had witnessed all that had transpired.
Clan Head Ximen had attacked the fortress, only to be repelled by it. The sight had truly been soul-shaking.
However, what they saw was not just Clan Head Ximen's humiliation, but also his murderous intent that soared to the heavens.
As such, they could not help but cast worried glances toward Chu Feng.
The fortress was safe enough, but what would happen to Chu Feng once he stepped outside?
In fact, quite a few people were thinking the same thing. But Chu Feng's face was entirely carefree, his attention solely focused on gripping the Celestial Immortal Sword in his hands.
His Evil God Sword was indeed more powerful than the Celestial Immortal Sword, but he did not dare use the Evil God Sword again.
Although he planned to sell the Celestial Immortal Sword, he did not mind using it before doing so. After all, he was well aware of the Celestial Immortal Sword's power.
It was not as powerful as the Evil God Sword, but it surpassed ordinary half-emperor weapons.
Boom— In an instant, the air surged, the void shifted, and a beam of light flowed from within the Celestial Immortal Sword into Chu Feng's body.
In the next moment, the violently trembling Celestial Immortal Sword calmed down. Its demeanor was even more docile than when it had been in Ximen Feixue's hands.
"Submit to its master!"
"A weapon like that, and Chu Feng actually made it submit to its master?"
"Making it submit to its master isn't even the most impressive part. Being able to make such a powerful half-emperor weapon submit to him in such a short time — that is what's truly remarkable."
Watching Chu Feng make the Celestial Immortal Sword submit to him right before their very eyes, even these outstanding individuals — the most elite talents of the Martial Sacred Land — were visibly impressed and could not help but draw in a sharp breath.
"How is this possible? Chu Feng actually possesses such talent?" At that moment, a trace of jealousy and unwillingness surfaced in Baili Xinghe's hostile eyes.
He wanted a Celestial Immortal Sword as well. He felt that the Celestial Immortal Sword suited him perfectly and that it should belong to him.
That was why, when Chu Feng had been subduing the Celestial Immortal Sword earlier, he had been hoping Chu Feng would fail. That way, he would have the chance to obtain it.
However, not only had Chu Feng not failed, but he had actually made the Celestial Immortal Sword submit to him. This left Baili Xinghe feeling both frustrated and deeply displeased.
In truth, not to mention everyone else, even that mysterious man standing in the sky had a flash of surprise in his eyes.
However, that flash of surprise was fleeting. Not only could ordinary people not detect it, but even Chu Feng did not notice it.
"Lajiao, Big Radish, Little Radish — come out." Suddenly, the mysterious man called toward Chu Feng's tower.
Hearing these words, Lajiao and the other two felt their hearts tighten, but without hesitation, they stepped out from the tower one after another.
"What? They're only Martial Kings? Those three are Lajiao, Big Radish, and Little Radish?" When the crowd saw the three of them, they were all stunned. They had imagined many possibilities for who Lajiao and the others might be, but the three standing before them were clearly nothing like what they had expected.
This... this was way too weak. With cultivation like that, how could they have made it here? And even faster than them?
"Your cultivation is insufficient to compete tomorrow. If you wish to withdraw from the competition, you may say so now." The mysterious man said.
"We withdraw." Big Radish and Little Radish said in unison.
