Chapter 1043: So Hes A Senior Expert

Yi Feng was captivated, and a rare glimmer of hope shone in his eyes.

At the same time, he noticed something strange, and a hint of suspicion appeared on his face.

"Wait a minute."

"The Star Gate, judging by its name, should be a gate, right? Shouldn't it be wide? But from this distance, it looks like just a thin line. Is it because we're too far away?"

His question caught Qing Yin Xianyun's attention.

As the flying ship moved forward, Qing Yin Xianyun's voice also carried a trace of doubt.

"It seems the Star Gate has been closed, and the demons seem to be hiding somewhere, not showing themselves much."

"This is indeed very strange!"

"But no matter the reason, our mission is to destroy this gate. We absolutely cannot allow the demons to use it to transport more power!"

Her resolute voice was filled with fighting spirit.

The flying ship sped along the Bone Road and soon came to a halt in mid-air.

After a solemn glance at the long bone path, the three of them descended to the ground one after another. Yi Feng, full of anticipation, leaped off the flying ship and quickly caught up with the three aliens.

Standing a hundred feet away from the Bone Road, the eerie blood-red flowers sent chills down their spines. The end of the bone path was shrouded in dark clouds, making it impossible to see any movement or the true appearance of the Star Gate.

A chilling, ominous atmosphere permeated the surroundings.

In the sky, a faint blood-red mist seemed to drift, swirling in complex patterns, and a pungent smell of blood spread in all directions.

The old man, with a stern expression, stroked his beard and looked up before turning to offer advice.

"Sir, it seems the demons have set up some kind of formation here. We must proceed with caution!"

Qing Yin Xianyun nodded slightly and issued a solemn order.

"Indeed. Let's enter the formation together, but we must not be careless."

Feeling the gravity of the situation, Yi Feng, though not sensing anything particularly special, was here to seek death and thus didn't mind taking the lead in scouting the path.

Without hesitation, he quietly suggested to the girl.

"Maybe I should walk in front."

Qing Yin Xianyun's eyes showed gratitude, and a confident smile appeared on her face.

"Thank you for your kind offer, senior."

"But for this mission, we don't need you to intervene just yet. Although your cultivation is profound, we are not ordinary either. We've come prepared, and destroying the demon gate shouldn't be too difficult."

As her gentle voice fell, a radiant light gathered in her hand.

A dazzlingly brilliant sword appeared, its long blade gleaming with cold light, and its hilt adorned with various gemstones, making it look incredibly impressive!

Yi Feng's eyes lit up as he saw the girl confidently holding the sword in front of her.

"Senior, this is a Heavenly Weapon. Breaking the demon formation and destroying the Star Gate will rely entirely on this sword!"

Yi Feng listened with a look of confusion, not fully understanding but still impressed.

"Wow, impressive."

Hearing his praise, Qing Yin Xianyun became slightly more confident, her clear eyes sparkling with starlight.

"This demon formation is not to be underestimated, and the Star Gate is no ordinary object. A Sacred Weapon might not be enough, which is why I brought this Heavenly Weapon, which is a level above the Sacred Weapon."

"Although using a Heavenly Weapon consumes a tremendous amount of energy, it's worth it if we can destroy this demon gate."

Qing Yin Xianyun was full of confidence in the Heavenly Weapon in her hand, and a hint of longing appeared in her eyes.

"Senior, your cultivation must be close to the Heavenly Tier, right?"

Yi Feng was caught off guard by the question and rubbed his nose without responding.

He had no idea what his cultivation level was. Logically, he was stronger than these three, but as for the specifics, he truly didn't know.

Seeing Yi Feng's noncommittal smile, Qing Yin Xianyun didn't dare to press further.

She took a graceful step forward, holding the Heavenly Weapon with confidence.

"Senior, your profound cultivation is undeniable, but without a Heavenly Weapon, it would be difficult to break the demon formation and destroy the Star Gate. Since this is our mission, we won't trouble you further."

"Alright."

Since that was the case, Yi Feng didn't say anything more.

Qing Yin Xianyun nodded and led the other two forward.

Although their conversation had been quiet, it didn't escape the notice of the old man and the young man.

Qing Yin Xianyun's constant reverence, her rare tone of respect, and her repeated use of the term "senior" had already left the old man and the young man wide-eyed, questioning their understanding of the situation.

After walking a short distance, they could no longer contain their curiosity and asked.

"Sir!"

"That... that person's cultivation seems shallow. Why do you hold him in such high regard? How did he suddenly become a senior?"

Qing Yin Xianyun stopped and glanced at them coldly.

"Do you remember the sky-covering giant toad?"

How could they forget such a terrifying creature? The mere mention of it sent shivers down their spines. But what did that have to do with Yi Feng?

The two of them were momentarily stunned, their eyes filled with confusion.

"That... is Senior Yi Feng's pet."

!!!

The young man's face turned pale with shock!

The old man, though more composed, nearly lost his footing!

The sky-covering giant toad, a creature of unimaginable terror, capable of hunting demons with ease—something they wouldn't dare face head-on—was actually Yi Feng's pet?

How could that be...

As the two stood frozen in place, Qing Yin Xianyun's cold voice continued to echo in their minds.

"When Senior Yi Feng was on guard, it wasn't as peaceful as it seemed. Numerous demons came to attack, far more than we encountered."

"Each time, Senior single-handedly slaughtered them all!"

"I witnessed it myself. Senior wielded his blade as if he were walking through an empty field, cutting down demons with ease."

BOOM!!!

The shocking words exploded in their minds.

The old man and the young man were completely numb, standing stiffly like statues, their minds blank and buzzing with disbelief.

Heavens above.

They had never dared to imagine that the truth could be like this?

The most low-key person in the group, the one who seemed to have the weakest cultivation, was actually a terrifyingly powerful expert, with a sky-covering giant toad as his pet!

Their hearts raced with shock, and suddenly, they remembered all their past interactions with Yi Feng.

They exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with horror.

Oh no...

They had treated Senior Yi as a young man, repeatedly speaking to him disrespectfully. This was really bad!

The young expert's throat went dry, and he didn't dare utter a word.

The old man looked at his hand, remembering how he had once patted Senior Yi on the shoulder, and suddenly began to tremble, his legs going weak.

Damn it, he had unknowingly courted death countless times!

What should they do now?

The two stood frozen like stone statues, their faces a picture of despair.

From behind them came a puzzled voice, which sounded like thunder in their ears.

"Hey? Why did you stop?"

Summoning their courage, they slowly turned around to see Yi Feng walking toward them.

When their eyes met, the two of them stiffened completely, a sense of impending doom washing over them. They felt as if they had been struck by lightning, unable to move a muscle!
