Luo Feng was just about to strike and behead Wang Molin when, all of a sudden, a voice rang out from the side.

"Wait!"

Black Cloud City’s City Lord Gu Yushan stood up, face grim.

Luo Feng had been slaughtering people right in front of him; Gu Yushan had already been in a foul mood. But because he feared Luo Feng’s strength, he’d been forcing himself to endure. Wang Molin’s words just now had hit him right in the heart. As the City Lord of Black Cloud City, if he still didn’t step out to stop this, how would he have any authority left in the future? He’d forever be suppressed by Luotian. No matter what, he had to save Wang Molin.

Luo Feng’s brows knit as he looked at Gu Yushan. "You want to stop me?"

Hearing Luo Feng’s questioning tone, Gu Yushan’s eyes narrowed slightly. He was from the Gu Family, one of the six great families of Flowing Cloud Region, and the City Lord of Black Cloud City. When had a youth ever spoken to him like this?

Taking a deep breath, Gu Yushan spoke:

"Luo Feng, Luo Ying was possessed by a demon thing and killed many people of the Wang Family. She even injured the Wang Family’s young master, so the Wang Family wants to behead her and display the body as a warning."

"City Lord Gu should know it was the Wang Family’s young master who attacked first and injured someone, which drove my cousin mad and led to her ending up like this."

Luo Feng’s expression was ice-cold.

Gu Yushan’s brows furrowed, his tone sinking a few degrees. "Luo Feng, this is Black Cloud City. I, Gu Yushan, am the lord of this city. You’ve been killing wantonly right under my eyes—have you taken me for nothing? On account of your youth, and since the Wang Family was in the wrong first, I won’t hold you accountable. Now you’ve already killed so many of the Wang Family. Your two families owe each other nothing. Let’s draw a line under this. Take Luo Ying and leave."

Wang Molin felt a surge of joy. Just as he’d expected, Gu Yushan, who’d long been jealous of Luotian, would definitely stand up for him.

With these words from Gu Yushan, even if Luo Feng wanted to kill him, he’d have to consider Gu Yushan’s status.

Luo Feng met Gu Yushan’s gaze, then suddenly raised his brows and smiled.

"Since City Lord Gu has spoken, I won’t pursue this matter any further."

Whoosh...

Hearing this, Wang Molin breathed a sigh of relief. But in the next instant, a gust of force hit him in the face. He looked up and his heart jolted—he had no idea when Luo Feng had appeared right in front of him.

Retreat!

The thought flashed through his mind. Wang Molin immediately executed his Qinggong, wanting to get far away from Luo Feng.

"You think you can leave?"

Luo Feng sneered. He reached out and grabbed. A massive transparent palm manifested and clamped Wang Molin firmly within, leaving him unable to move.

"Luo Feng, you go back on your word, you dare deceive City Lord Gu! The Gu Family is the head of the six great families, and the family has True Yuan Realm Martial Artists in town. You’re seeking your own death!"

Wang Molin used every ounce of strength he had but still couldn’t break free. His mind felt like it was tearing apart, and he forced himself to roar at Luo Feng.

Luo Feng’s expression was indifferent. "I, Luo Feng, never break my word. Since I promised City Lord Gu I would no longer pursue my cousin Luo Ying’s matter, then I naturally won’t pursue it."

"Then why aren’t you letting him go?"

Gu Yushan’s face turned extremely ugly. He hadn’t thought that, in front of so many people, Luo Feng would give him no face at all.

"No hurry."

Luo Feng shook his head slightly, fixed his gaze on Wang Molin, and said slowly, "Family Head of the Wang Family, we still have an old debt to settle."

Wang Molin was stunned for a moment, then suddenly thought of something, and his face changed drastically. He naturally knew what Luo Feng meant.

"Looks like you’ve remembered."

A smile appeared on Luo Feng’s face, but his eyes were icy and merciless. "What you never should have done was lay a hand on my father."

As he spoke, Luo Feng’s fingers clenched. The Yuan Qi hand also tightened. Wang Molin’s face turned purple-red, and under the crushing force, blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.

"Lo... Luo Feng! I was instigated by others in this matter, please spare me! It was all the Blood Skulls, the First and Second Chiefs of the Blood Skull Bandit Group who bewitched me. I lost my head for a moment and listened to their slander, then sent people to ambush your father."

Wang Molin was so terrified his face turned ashen. He spilled everything in one breath.

Instantly, the entire Purple Cloud Plaza erupted into an uproar.

Everyone had heard rumors that the Wang Family was in collusion with the bandits of the Northwestern Plains, but there’d never been any solid proof. Now Wang Molin’s words confirmed it beyond doubt.

At this moment, in a corner of the central area of Purple Cloud Plaza, a figure in a black bamboo hat was quietly edging backward.

"Die."

Luo Feng’s eyes flashed. He flicked his index finger and a spiraling Qi Force shot out. The figure in the black bamboo hat didn’t even have time to react before his chest was pierced through with a huge hole and he fell flat on his back.

"That is..."

"I recognize him. He’s Xuekui, the First Chief of the Blood Skull Bandit Group! He actually slipped into Black Cloud City."

"Serves him right. That man rampaged across the Northwestern Plains. Who knows how many people he slaughtered!"

"Looks like what Luo Feng said wasn’t false. The Wang Family really did collude with the Blood Skull Bandit Group to ambush Luotian."

"Hmph, Wang Molin actually colluded with bandits. He deserves a thousand deaths."

Seeing the corpse on the ground, the crowd was shocked and started talking all at once.

The Wang Family only had one Four Spirit Rotations level Martial Artist—Wang Molin—so Luo Feng had already been certain of Xuekui’s identity.

Retracting his gaze, Luo Feng looked at Wang Molin and said coolly:

"Heaven’s misfortune can still be survived, but self-made sin cannot be lived with. You struck at my father—then your entire Wang Family will pay the price."

"What!"

Wang Molin’s face changed dramatically.

"All members of the Luo Family, hear my order!" Luo Feng shouted.

"Yes!" Over a hundred Martial Artists of the Luo Family roared in unison, their shout making the entire plaza tremble slightly.

These Luo Family Martial Artists were all from the branch families. Luo Ying was usually kind by nature and treated the servants very well. Everyone respected her greatly. Seeing Luo Ying in such a miserable state, a fire had been burning in their hearts. Now their blood was boiling, and they were like wolves and tigers.

Luo Feng swept his gaze over them and said coldly, "Head to the Wang Family residence immediately. All Wang Family clansmen—kill without mercy!"

Whoosh!

As soon as Luo Feng’s words fell, Purple Cloud Plaza boiled over. No one had expected Luo Feng to actually want to annihilate the entire Wang Family!

"You mustn’t!"

Wang Molin cried out in alarm. He had never imagined that Luo Feng not only wanted his life, but wanted the entire Wang Family to be buried with him. He shouted loudly to Gu Yushan, "City Lord, save me!"

Gu Yushan’s eyes flickered. With a wave of his hand, squads of guards from the City Lord Mansion of Black Cloud City moved out to block the Luo Family’s path.

"Luo Feng, you are far too presumptuous!"

Luo Feng’s brows creased and he looked at Gu Yushan. "City Lord Gu, this is a private grudge between my Luo Family and the Wang Family. I hope you won’t interfere. There’s no feud between my Luo Family and your Gu Family. I don’t want to become enemies with you."

Hearing Luo Feng’s words, Gu Yushan’s face turned gloomy.

"This is Black Cloud City, not a place where your Luo Family can do as it pleases."

If he let Luo Feng wipe out the Wang Family today, how would he, the City Lord of Black Cloud City, have any face left?

Luo Feng’s eyes flashed; he refused to back down an inch:

"Today I will destroy the Wang Family no matter what."

He did indeed dread that True Yuan Realm expert from the Gu Family, but not to the point of fear.

Right now he was already at late stage of the eighth level of the Spiritual Rotation Realm. It wouldn’t be long before he stepped into the True Yuan Realm!

Shen Qing looked at Luo Feng, her face showing a trace of shock. "Second Brother, Feng Er... he’s not the same as before. In this one year, just what has happened to him?"

Luotian’s expression was full of pride as he laughed. "No matter what, he’s my son, Luo Tian’s son, your nephew, and the pride of our Luo Family!"

Shen Qing gave a faint smile and nodded.

Gu Yushan stared at Luo Feng, his expression shifting several times in an instant. He had not expected Luo Feng to be so unappreciative of his kindness.

The two sides were at a stalemate, hundreds of people glaring at each other. A strange pressure blanketed the entire Purple Cloud Plaza. The tense atmosphere unconsciously made the Martial Artists around the plaza slow their breathing.

Whoosh!

Just then, a sharp tearing sound suddenly came from the sky.

Luo Feng’s gaze flickered. He raised his head and looked upward.

In the sky, a pillar of wind was spiraling downward. In an instant, it appeared in the middle of the plaza.

The wind pillar dissipated, and two figures walked out from within.

"True Yuan Realm experts!"

Luo Feng’s heart tightened. He looked at the two who had suddenly appeared, his expression incomparably grave.
