Chapter 995: Human Sorrows And Joys Are Not Interc

Bai Piaopiao and Su Jie were both deeply shaken.

They knew Yi Feng's cultivation was impressive, but they never expected it to be this formidable!

Their eyes filled with excitement as they landed beside Yi Feng.

"Yi Feng, you're incredibly strong!"

"We never imagined your strength would be this terrifying. You defeated Gu Qingcheng with just one move!"

Seeing the two women's excitement, they looked like adoring fans.

Yi Feng, however, was merely stunned, showing no excitement at all.

Why was Gu Qingcheng so fragile?

He hadn't even used any real strength, yet the guy was sent flying...

Looking down at his right hand, Yi Feng sighed softly.

"Ah..."

Raising his gaze, he saw the figure lying in the pit. Though disheveled, the thick layer of powder on the face was unmistakable—it was indeed that powdered-up pretty boy!

Defeating a so-called Saint with a single move, his cultivation was terrifyingly strong.

If there had been onlookers, they would surely have been dumbfounded!

It was no wonder the two women were so excited—this was utterly unbelievable.

Yi Feng felt no joy, only growing desolation and bitterness, as if he had fully accepted his fate, his expression one of utter despair.

The sorrows and joys of humans are not interconnected, and this was especially evident now.

As the two women continued to praise him, he stood there in silence, feeling as if cold water had been poured over him, leaving him speechless and on the verge of tears.

Damn it!

It was confirmed—he was at the Saint level, and an exceptionally strong one at that!

Curse this damned system!!!

If you made me this strong, why are you still making me seek death?!

Yi Feng stood frozen, feeling as if the world was unbearably noisy.

Why.

He really was at the Saint level, capable of defeating that pretty boy with a single move. What kind of joke was this?!

With this level of cultivation, how was he supposed to go about seeking death?

After a night of agonizing over it, Yi Feng had initially refused to accept his fate, clinging to a sliver of hope that it was all just a misunderstanding.

But then this pretty boy showed up, confirming everything!

He was a Saint, without a doubt!

He was screwed...

All hope in life was gone!

Yi Feng fell completely silent, his heart utterly chilled.

Seeing his desolate and dazed expression, Bai Piaopiao and Su Jie grew even more impressed, especially Bai Piaopiao, whose eyes sparkled like a starstruck fan!

That's right.

Yi Feng's cultivation was formidable. He had already blocked Su Jie's sword strike earlier, and now defeating Gu Qingcheng was only natural. There was nothing to be excited about.

As Su Jie had said, Yi Feng's pursuits had already transcended the mundane.

He was truly special...

Seeing Yi Feng so powerful, Bai Piaopiao felt both amazed and exhilarated. Her heart raced faster and faster, her gaze fixed on him. Even his silence seemed incredibly unique, cool, and irresistibly attractive.

Until, from the distance, the figure in the pit began to stir.

A series of shocked and furious roars echoed, the trembling voice sounding like that of a madman!

"This... this is impossible! It can't be!"

The three of them were jolted awake, turning their gaze toward the source of the noise. Gu Qingcheng, his hair disheveled, glared at them with a face full of hatred!

Their eyes met!

Gu Qingcheng's face alternated between green and red, as if he had suffered an immense humiliation. His twisted expression was one of sheer rage.

"Bastard! Bastard!!!"

"How could you possibly be a Saint?! I, a Saint who has been renowned for thousands of years, have never experienced such humiliation! Bai Piaopiao, you slut, how dare you bring a Saint here to play the pig to eat the tiger!"

"I will make sure all of you die here! Your families! Your servants! Everyone connected to you will pay for this humiliation with their lives!!!"

A terrifying killing intent began to spread, veins bulging on Gu Qingcheng's forehead.

The murderous aura was horrifying, and there was no doubt about its authenticity. Even Su Jie's expression turned grave, not out of fear of his strength, but because of the unrelenting, life-or-death determination.

This matter had escalated!

Bai Piaopiao and Su Jie exchanged a silent glance, their faces serious. Faced with the ancient clan behind Gu Qingcheng, they dared not underestimate the situation.

Just as they were about to discuss how to handle it, Yi Feng stepped forward.

To Yi Feng, Gu Qingcheng's wild threats sounded like a beacon of hope. Seeing Gu Qingcheng unleash such terrifying power, almost like a madman...

Surely, he would use some powerful trump card now, right?

Please, don't let the title of "Ancient Clan Saint" be for nothing!

Yi Feng walked forward steadily, a glimmer of anticipation in his eyes.

This move not only stunned Bai Piaopiao and Su Jie but also made Gu Qingcheng's expression turn deadly serious.

Slowly circulating his Dao power, Gu Qingcheng revealed a rare, ruthless determination.

"Good! You really have guts!"

"For thousands of years, I have never fought with my full strength, nor have I been pushed to such a point. But now that you've provoked my killing intent, it will be the greatest misfortune of your life!"

"Open your eyes wide and witness the true power of an ancient clan!!!"

Yi Feng nodded seriously, his anticipation growing.

"Alright! I'm watching!"

Gu Qingcheng's eyes twitched, cursing inwardly at Yi Feng's audacity.

Then, with a burst of Dao energy, he rose into the air. The energy of heaven and earth converged around him, and a terrifying aura spread out. The clouds churned, and the earth trembled!

His face, already twisted with rage, now had veins bulging even more. As he spread his hands, his once delicate eyes shone with a fierce light, like a god descending from the heavens.

"Star Chess Formation!!!"

A voice that seemed to pierce through heaven and earth rang out. In the sky, a chessboard formed from the power of the Dao, with connecting points turning into chess pieces, resembling a sea of stars illuminating the entire sacred land!

Bai Piaopiao watched with a grave expression, circulating her Dao power to resist.

Su Jie also gripped her sword, unable to hold back her astonishment.

"This playboy truly has extraordinary talent. Despite wasting his cultivation for years, his understanding of the Dao of Chess has reached such a level that he can summon the power of heaven and earth. Even I might not be able to easily withstand this!"

Hearing this, Bai Piaopiao's expression grew even more tense. But as she looked at Yi Feng's solitary figure in the distance, she also felt a mix of anxiety and concern.

At that moment, she saw Yi Feng smile!

Bai Piaopiao's heart skipped a beat, shocked by his unshakable confidence. Su Jie was equally stunned, lowering her arms in disbelief.

They couldn't imagine what kind of immense strength could support such confidence!

Yi Feng was truly unfathomable. His composure was something they could never hope to match!

The two women watched in awe, not daring to make any rash moves.

As the overwhelming power enveloped the entire sacred land, the dazzling light was like a blazing sun. Whether it was the palaces, pavilions, or all living beings, everything was subdued by the might of the black and white chess pieces!

Looking down from above, Gu Qingcheng's face was filled with arrogance, treating those on the ground as mere ants.

"Ignorant fools!"

"You and those two sluts will die here! I will make sure your families, and everyone connected to you, wail and beg for mercy as they join you in hell!!!"

Finally, Yi Feng also smiled, praising aloud.

"So strong..."

Since he was this strong, Yi Feng decided to play along and put in a bit more effort. He had to force Gu Qingcheng to use his full strength!

With that thought, Yi Feng put on a show of preparing his stance, clenching his right hand into a fist.

The stance looked utterly ordinary, and Gu Qingcheng's eyes filled with pity, as if he were looking at a child, his gaze full of disdain and mockery.

"Have you given up? When I get serious, everyone is just an ant..."

But as Yi Feng's fist shot forward, Gu Qingcheng's smile froze!

As the fist moved, Gu Qingcheng's expression changed rapidly. In an instant, his face turned pale!

In his eyes.

After that fist was thrown, it seemed as if a massive, sky-spanning fist shadow appeared, rushing toward him from the ground. Under its terrifying might, it felt as if the heavens would turn to dust, and even the sun was frantically trying to escape!

Gu Qingcheng's face turned deathly pale, his lips trembling. He had no time to react!

Boom!!!

The chessboard shattered like dry twigs, and the world returned to normal!

The figure that had been shouting threats was swept away like a leaf in a storm, falling like a meteor. All the overwhelming power vanished, and the morning light once again bathed the earth, as if nothing had happened.

The sun rose, the sky clear and bright.

One punch!

The chessboard formed by the power of heaven and earth had dissipated like dust!

Was this...

really the power of a Saint?!
