"Who else is there?"
"No one dares to step up."
With a single punch, Heathward was sent flying. Everyone assessed their own strength and realized that if they were to go up, they would meet the same fate of being knocked away with one blow.
Hua Guinian looked as if he had been dealt a heavy slap, his face turning an alarming shade of blue.
"Kill!"
Thirty Golden Core Disciples rushed forward, weapons like spirit swords, Spirit Talismans, and hidden weapons raining down on Xu Feng. They didn't dare to challenge him one-on-one, but a group assault was still an option.
Xu Feng took out the Fire Dragon Whip and began to whirl it wildly. The incoming Spirit Talismans and hidden weapons were all knocked down. With the Medium-Grade Magical Artifact Fire Dragon Whip in hand, no one dared to confront him directly. Xu Feng swung the whip seven times, breaking through the encirclement, and with the Wings of the Strange Dragon unfurled, he soared into the sky.
These Golden Core Cultivators were all at least mid-stage; they were not easy opponents. In a one-on-one fight, Xu Feng could knock one down with a single slap, but against thirty people working together, he found it hard to gain any advantage. The earlier punch that sent Heathward flying relied on his Supreme Quality Armor and the formidable physique from his Five Elements Cultivation; Heathward had been careless at that moment, which allowed Xu Feng to take him down.
As Xu Feng flew into the sky, his Wings of the Strange Dragon were incredibly agile. The cultivators could no longer surround him. Xu Feng created some distance and took out the Moonchaser Bow. With several arrows shot off, the group of cultivators became flustered. A few who underestimated their own abilities tried to block his arrows but ended up injured and fell down. Fortunately, their fellow disciples caught them; otherwise, they would have turned into meat patties.
Hua Guinian had several Late Stage Golden Core elders by his side but did not let them intervene. Given the current situation, even if these elders acted, they wouldn't be able to subdue Xu Feng. In less than a month, Xu Feng had already developed strength that gave Wuhua Island a headache; what a pity for my Qinglong Mountain's mine.
Ten Golden Core disciples were stationed at Qinglong Mountain along with Wuhua Island's reputation; this arrangement should have been foolproof. Unexpectedly, Xu Feng found a loophole.
Xu Feng didn't dare to press too hard. Flapping his wings from above, he declared, "Hua Du is still in my hands. In ten days, I will exchange him for someone else. It would be best for the Flower Island Master not to make things difficult for me. If Elder Qiu comes to any harm, even if I die, I will seek justice." This was an outright threat; unless Hua Qian Zhi stayed here, anyone from Wuhua Island who went out would die.
Xu Feng flapped his wings and flew away; no one dared to pursue him.
Hua Guinian frowned and turned to walk into the island, saying, "Bring Qiu Wuling to see me."
As he passed by Heathward, he paused slightly and said to the fallen Heathward, "Take care of your injuries. Once you recover, you will be one of the elders of Wuhua Island." Heathward's ashen eyes brightened for a moment, wanting to express his gratitude but unable to do so.
Xu Feng swaggered out of Wuhua Island. Today, with a single punch, he demonstrated his powerful strength to intimidate Hua Guinian, ensuring that he would not act recklessly. With Hua Guinian having reservations, Qiu Wuling and Cai Shujun could be safer. Xu Feng set a deadline of ten days; firstly, to avoid prolonged uncertainty, and secondly, because his own strength was still insufficient to make Wuhua Island obedient. He needed these ten days to prepare.
Xu Feng had reached the Mid-Stage of Golden Core and was now in the Late Stage of Fire Element One Star. He was already the strongest below Yuan Ying in Liuxiang Kingdom. Even if Hua Qian Zhi arrived, he would not be able to do anything to him; otherwise, Xu Feng would not have dared to single-handedly invade Wuhua Island.
He flew back to Mist City overnight, intending to find Lin Fangxin to understand the enrollment situation of Koukou Group. However, he felt a powerful spiritual sense locking onto him. Xu Feng descended from the sky, retracting his wings as he stood on the city wall of Mist City. With his superior Soul Power, he quickly detected the malicious spiritual sense.
In the distance, on top of a three-story wooden building, a white figure coldly watched him.
Hua Wanduo was from Wuhua Island.
Under the bright sun, Xu Feng soared into Mist City with his Wings of the Strange Dragon and was immediately spotted by Hua Wanduo, who was searching for Hua Du in Mist City. Xu Feng's keen senses allowed him to notice Hua Wanduo in time, causing her to be slightly startled. The two exchanged glances across the distance; Hua Wanduo was shocked again—after half a month apart, Xu Feng had actually advanced to the Late Stage of Golden Core!
She did not yet know that Xu Feng had refined Azure Dragon Mine. Seeing Xu Feng's rapid progress in cultivation made her think that he must have encountered some fortuitous event. Hua Wanduo was also a rare talent; if Hua Qian Zhi did not return, she and Qiu Wuling would be the strongest Golden Core experts below Yuan Ying in Liuxiang Kingdom.
"Xu Feng," Qiu Wuling called out from several dozen meters away, "I still stand by what I said: release Hua Du, and I won't make things difficult for you."
Xu Feng smiled lightly and replied, "You're wasting your breath. You know I'm using Hua Du to exchange for Qiu Wuling and Cai Shujun. Elder Hua, can you show some sincerity?"
As their verbal clash drew attention from cultivators in the city.
"Wow, it's Xu Feng! I heard he single-handedly stormed into Wuhua Island half a month ago and took away Hua Du."
"What is he trying to take Hua Du for? Hua Du is a man!"
"What are you thinking, you bastard? Taking Hua Du is to save Cai Shujun from New Moon Sect. New Moon Sect has already promised Cai Shujun to Xu Feng as a *partner*."
"Ah, is that true? I haven't heard about it."
"Yes, it's absolutely true... Whether you believe it or not, I certainly do."
Hua Wanduo, having no choice but to endure and negotiate with Xu Feng since Hua Du was in his hands, said, "I don't want it to be this way either, but I'm not the Island Master, so I don't have the authority to release Qiu Wuling."
"Then what power do you have to capture her?"
Hua Wanduo was momentarily speechless and could only say, "New Moon Sect is competing with Wuhua Island for the Azure Dragon Mine. As the person in charge, what’s wrong with us capturing her?"
Xu Feng replied, "Azure Dragon Mine is originally unowned; those with virtue can occupy it. Since Wuhua Island captured Qiu Wuling, that’s one thing, but then you also pressured her disciple, Cai Shujun, into marriage. As the first island of Liuxiang, Wuhua Island is doing shameful things." The matters of Wuhua Island were well-known, and by bringing them up publicly again, Xu Feng was essentially exposing their wounds.
The cultivators below the city indeed began to discuss and cursed that Wuhua Island had given birth to sons without any sense.
Feeling outmatched by Xu Feng, and seeing the cultivators below cursing Wuhua Island, Hua Wanduo felt angry and said, "Xu Feng, if anything happens to Hua Du, then Qiu Wuling will definitely not survive either. Don’t mislead yourself and others. Hand over the jealousy to me, and I guarantee that Qiu Wuling will return safely."
"What can you guarantee?" Xu Feng asked. "Elder Hua, we have no great enmity between us. You are not a bad person. If you leave now, I won’t make things difficult for you. Just treat Elder Qiu well when you go back, and I will naturally remember your kindness."
"You want to make things difficult for me?" Hua Wanduo narrowed his eyes and said, "I would like to see how you plan to make things difficult for me." Having laughed proudly in the Liuxiang Kingdom for many years, aside from a few old ghosts of the Yuan Ying, only Qiu Wuling could fight her; who would dare speak to her like this? Moreover, Xu Feng was still just a young man under forty.
Looking at the increasing number of cultivators below, Xu Feng thought, "Alright then, establishing some authority over you wouldn't be a bad idea."
Xu Feng stopped talking and took out the Fire Dragon Whip, shaking it in the wind, creating a burst of flames.
"Medium-Grade Magical Artifact!" There were gasps from below the city. Hua Wanduo had seen the Fire Dragon Whip before, so it was no surprise that she quietly took out her own magical artifact, Paddle.
Paddle was an Inferior Magical Artifact, obtained by Wuhua Island during the first Nine Dragon Pool battle and eventually fell into Hua Wanduo's hands. She had used it in the second Nine Dragon Pool battle but was deceived by the opponent's armor and suffered heavy injuries. This time, Hua Wanduo used her artifact much more discreetly than before.
Against a Medium-Grade Magical Artifact, Hua Wanduo planned to teach Xu Feng a lesson using her years of combat experience.
The two locked eyes from a distance. Xu Feng unleashed the Wings of the Strange Dragon and flew into the air, while Hua Wanduo followed closely on her Flying Sword. Nearly a hundred pairs of eyes in the city below were fixed on them, afraid to blink and miss the spectacle.
"Tiger Strike!" Xu Feng swung his whip, transforming it into a tiger claw aimed at Hua Wanduo. She swiftly dodged to the side, skillfully avoiding the attack while countering with Paddle, striking towards Xu Feng's midsection.
Hua Wanduo's movements were simple yet surprisingly fast. Before Xu Feng could retract his Fire Dragon Whip, Paddle was already upon him.
"Flexible Body!" With a sideways roll, Paddle brushed past Xu Feng's shoulder without inflicting any damage.
Hua Wanduo was greatly surprised; she shared a deep connection with Paddle and felt that it had indeed struck Xu Feng, only for him to deflect it using his Water Element Cultivation Method.
In reality, the Water Element Technique only reduced part of the force; it couldn't completely negate the impact of the artifact. Most of it still hit Xu Feng, but he remained unharmed due to his Supreme Quality Armor.
Taking advantage of this slip, Xu Feng charged forward, conjuring a ring of fire with his Fire Dragon Whip aimed directly at Hua Wanduo.
Before the fire ring could close in on her, Hua Wanduo swiftly opened her paddle and lightly tapped against the Fire Dragon Whip, creating a faint red gap. In an instant, she slipped through this opening. With her rich combat experience, it was very difficult for Xu Feng to trap her with the fire ring.
Having observed Xu Feng's move, Hua Wanduo grasped the characteristics of the Fire Dragon Whip and prepared to exploit its weakness—its long reach made close combat challenging. This would allow her to better utilize Paddle's capabilities.
Hua Wanduo broke free from the fiery ring, as if she had returned to the embrace of spring. The sky still held a hint of white, like delicate spring rain.
"Spring rain?" This was bad! Mist City rarely experienced rain, and just moments ago it had been shrouded in heavy fog. How could it suddenly start to rain? There was no time to think further; Hua Wanduo's years of combat experience prompted her to react immediately and shift sideways once more.
The maneuver from a straight line to a sideways shift was a sharp turn, a very difficult combat move. Fortunately, it was Hua Wanduo; others would have found it impossible, but she succeeded.
Unfortunately, this time she only managed to move five meters. A five-meter shift was usually enough to evade an enemy's attack. However, this time she miscalculated; what she faced was not just a knife or a sword, but...
A flickering white light danced around her. Hua Wanduo, along with her sword, tumbled together, strangely suspended in the sky, struggling continuously yet unable to fall.
Xu Feng suddenly unleashed the Ice Spider Web. Caught off guard, Hua Wanduo was swiftly captured.
Hua Wanduo could never have imagined that Xu Feng possessed a Medium-Grade Magical Artifact like the Ice Spider Web. In an instant of carelessness, she found herself ensnared by Xu Feng's merciless web, unable to move. As soon as Xu Feng activated the Fire Dragon Whip, Hua Wanduo's beautiful blossoms would be completely withered.
