Chapter 974: Firmly Disbelieving

When Xu Kaihan slowly regained consciousness, he saw Yi Feng sitting with his legs crossed, casually eating peanuts.

"Who are you? What do you want?"

"I am the young master of the Moonview Sect, the man of Empress Baihuang. How dare you capture me?"

"You have some nerve."

After waking up, Xu Kaihan endured the pain that felt like his entire body was falling apart. He glared at Yi Feng with gritted teeth, cursing loudly, completely shedding his previous image of a refined, jade-like gentleman.

As he spoke, he even spat at Yi Feng!

However, whether it was due to his lack of strength or some other reason, the spit didn’t even reach Yi Feng. Instead, it weakly landed on his own chin.

This immediately disgusted Yi Feng, who silently lamented Empress Baihuang’s poor taste.

What kind of person would she bring to her bed?

Looking at his strength, he couldn’t even spit properly. Could he even pee without wetting his shoes in the wind?

"Hey, are you ignoring me?"

Seeing that Yi Feng paid him no attention, Xu Kaihan continued to shout.

The noise irritated Yi Feng, who scratched his ear, then grabbed Xu Kaihan’s chin and said leisurely, "Don’t you know that I captured you precisely because you’re Empress Baihuang’s man?"

"You... you... how dare you?"

Xu Kaihan’s eyes widened in shock as he stammered, "How could you dare?"

Xu Kaihan couldn’t believe it. How could someone dare to capture him knowing he was Empress Baihuang’s man?

"Because Empress Baihuang and I have an irreconcilable blood feud!" Yi Feng said with a cold smile, his expression turning fierce. "So, you’d better tell me where Empress Baihuang is right now."

"Otherwise, I’ll turn you into a human stick!"

"A blood feud with Empress Baihuang? And you’ll turn me into a human stick?"

Xu Kaihan was instantly terrified. Realizing the situation, he immediately begged for mercy, "Brother, I don’t know where Empress Baihuang is!"

"You don’t know?"

Yi Feng’s expression turned even more menacing.

He picked up a large blade nearby and used the back of it to harshly scrape Xu Kaihan’s neck a few times.

"Ahhh!"

"I’m dead, I’m dead!"

The cold aura from the blade seeped into his body, and combined with Yi Feng’s ferocious appearance, Xu Kaihan was so frightened that he lost control of his bladder, closing his eyes and screaming in panic.

"I was wrong, I was wrong!"

"I’ll talk, I’ll talk now!" Xu Kaihan wailed.

Hearing this, Yi Feng looked at Xu Kaihan.

"Really?" he asked with delight.

"That’s great!"

As he withdrew the gleaming blade, he said, "See, if you had just done this earlier, things would’ve been much easier!"

"Now, tell me, where is she?"

"Sir, what I want to say is... I don’t even know her..."

"I’m not Empress Baihuang’s man at all. The rumors outside were all made up by me."

*Slap!* A hard slap landed on Xu Kaihan’s face.

Instantly, Xu Kaihan saw stars, and his entire body went numb.

"Are you messing with me?" Yi Feng’s blade was once again leveled at Xu Kaihan as he glared at him fiercely. "It seems you won’t confess until you see your own coffin!"

He put on an even more menacing act.

"I’ll warn you again, Empress Baihuang and I have a generational feud, a life-and-death entanglement that spans lifetimes! If I can’t kill her with my own hands, I’ll make sure everyone around her dies with her!"

As he spoke, Yi Feng flipped his palm, and the sky outside visibly darkened.

The black clouds pressed down on the city, creating an overwhelming sense of doom.

Xu Kaihan stared in shock at the scene outside the door behind Yi Feng, where thick clouds churned as if they were about to collapse.

He was completely numb...

A generational feud with Empress Baihuang, a life-and-death struggle...

If he couldn’t kill Empress Baihuang with his own hands, he would make everyone around her pay...

Holy crap!

This was a huge mess!

He prostrated himself on the ground, kowtowing frantically.

"Misunderstanding! Misunderstanding!"

"Sir, this is a huge misunderstanding!!"

"A colossal misunderstanding!!!"

"I really don’t know Empress Baihuang!"

"Please spare my life!"

Yi Feng looked at the frantically kowtowing Xu Kaihan and sneered, "Do you think I’m stupid? The entire Nine Realms is spreading the rumor that you’re her lover. How could it be false?"

As he spoke, Yi Feng pulled out an array of weapons from his storage ring.

He slammed them into the ground.

Where they landed, the ground cracked like a spiderweb.

It was clear that he was preparing to dismember Xu Kaihan.

Xu Kaihan trembled.

"Sir, please spare me! I really don’t know Empress Baihuang!" he cried, his face full of despair.

How could he make the man believe him?

He truly didn’t know Empress Baihuang, wuwuwu...

"Ha!" Yi Feng looked at the lying Xu Kaihan with amusement. "I didn’t expect you to be so loyal."

"Even at a time like this, you’d rather break your head from kowtowing than drag her into this."

He had scared him so much, yet for the sake of not causing trouble for his girlfriend, this guy still refused to talk even in such a dire situation.

Such love was truly touching.

But he wasn’t moved.

He was only angrier!

"It seems you won’t talk unless I resort to torture."

"Sir, I don’t need torture! I’ll confess to anything you say! I’ll answer any question you ask!" Xu Kaihan declared loudly. "If I don’t say anything, there’s only one possibility!"

"I really don’t know, sir!!!"

Yi Feng rolled his eyes. "Damn it, do you think I captured you to admire your deep affection?!"

Yi Feng’s face was filled with anger as he raised the blade and placed it directly on Xu Kaihan’s neck!

"Talk!!!"

A furious roar made Xu Kaihan shudder.

Immediately afterward, a warm stream flowed from his lower body.

Yi Feng sniffed, glanced over, and looked at Xu Kaihan with disgust.

But within that disgust, there was also a hint of admiration.

He hadn’t expected this guy to be so devoted.

Xu Kaihan gritted his teeth, realizing that no matter what he said now, it was useless.

The other party was convinced that he was Empress Baihuang’s lover!

If this had happened before, he would have been overjoyed. But now, facing this demon, he was on the verge of tears.

He wished he could strangle the servant who had spread those stories everywhere.

But now, there was no time for that. If he wanted to survive, he had to find another way.

After all, no matter how much he protested, the other party wouldn’t believe that he didn’t know Empress Baihuang.

The next moment, Xu Kaihan looked up, gritting his teeth as he stared at Yi Feng.

Yi Feng had already started sharpening his blade.

"If you harm me, my father will never let you go! My father is the sect master of the Moonview Sect!" Seeing that Yi Feng wouldn’t believe him no matter what, Xu Kaihan came up with another plan, shouting with false bravado.

But even as he spoke, his teeth chattered, and his entire body trembled.

Yi Feng continued sharpening the blade with a menacing air.

Xu Kaihan listened to the sound of the blade being sharpened, and even his manhood began to tremble.

So he increased the intensity of his threats.

"Not only will he not let you go, but I’m also my father’s most precious treasure! My father holds the title of Saint! And he’s even stronger than Empress Baihuang. If you dare harm me, he’ll definitely kill you!"

The sharpening sound stopped.

Yi Feng turned around, grinning.

The four-meter-long blade gleamed brightly, reflecting his white teeth.

Originally, he had planned to use this guy to lure out Empress Baihuang, but instead, he had stumbled upon a Saint even stronger than her?

What an unexpected gain.

"Oh~" Yi Feng nodded meaningfully, as if he had just realized something. "So that’s how it is."

"Are you sure your father is also a Saint?" Yi Feng stood up, holding the blade, which left a long gash in the ground as he dragged it.

"Uh..."

His father was at the Dao Realm. Claiming that he was a Saint stronger than Empress Baihuang was shameless, but for the sake of survival, he had no choice.

"Yes, my father is a Saint!"

"A very powerful Saint."

"When he makes a move, it’s absolutely terrifying."

"If you let me go now, my father will definitely come looking for me. If he sees I’m unharmed, he might spare your life." Xu Kaihan seized the opportunity to say.

Yi Feng laughed.

"Fine, I’ll give you a chance to call your father over." Yi Feng set the blade aside and took out Xu Kaihan’s communication jade slip from his storage ring.

Yi Feng’s actions left Xu Kaihan completely stunned.

This wasn’t going as expected.

Why wasn’t this guy afraid of his threats?

Shouldn’t he have released him? Why was he handing him the jade slip instead?

But the cold, gleaming blade beside him made him act without hesitation. He grabbed the jade slip and shouted.

"Dad! Dad! Save me!" Xu Kaihan cried, tears and snot streaming down his face. "If you don’t come soon, your son is going to die, wuwuwu."

With that, Xu Kaihan crushed the jade slip in his hand.

The jade slip instantly turned to powder, scattering into the air.
