The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 781 - 777: Is the Initial Stage of Sky-Breaking Strong?

Hm?

When Wang Anqi made his statement, Fang Ziping and the others also turned their attention to Xia Zining.

Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining felt a jolt in their hearts, especially Xia Zining; she had not expected someone here to see through her illusion technique.

Despite the silly smile still on his face, Ye Chenfeng’s mind was racing rapidly, moving his steps slowly to Xia Zining’s side, carefully gauging the overall strength of the opposing group.

"Feng Qianshui at the Initial Stage of Sky-Breaking, Wang Anqi at the Middle Stage of Innate, Fang Ziping at the Initial Stage of Innate, Qiu Lengyao at the Initial Stage of Innate, Zhong Yang at Middle Grade of Heaven Rank."

After discovering that the highest among the five was only at the Initial Stage of Sky-Breaking, Ye Chenfeng breathed a sigh of relief. Even if his identity was exposed here, he was confident that he could take Xia Zining and leave safely. However, he had only just infiltrated the Tianshan Sect and had to consider leaving so soon? This made Ye Chenfeng immensely frustrated.

"Fine, since it’s like this, I’ll just collect some interest first, and then my trip to the Tianshan Sect won’t have been in vain." Ye Chenfeng now targeted these five, knowing that if he could instantly kill Feng Qianshui, who was at the Initial Stage of Sky-Breaking, the remaining four would be easy to deal with.

"Wang, what do you mean by this? You’re saying this woman used an illusion technique?" Fang Ziping asked, puzzled.

Wang Anqi nodded without hesitation and said, "Yes, the defenses of your Tianshan Sect are somewhat lacking, allowing someone to slip in unnoticed."

Hearing Wang Anqi’s affirmative response, the expressions of Fang Ziping and the others looking at Xia Zining and Ye Chenfeng started to turn hostile, and Li Weida, who had been maintaining a bowing posture, also sensed the wary gazes of Fang Ziping and the others. He quickly ran to a spot far away from Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining and said in a fluster, "Elder, these two are new menials who arrived today. I was originally taking them to the Miscellany Yard, they have nothing to do with me."

The Elder mentioned by Li Weida was Feng Qianshui. Having worked as a menial in the Tianshan Sect for many years, Li Weida’s words did not stir doubt in Feng Qianshui and the others, so they did not spare a glance at Li Weida but continued to focus their attention on Xia Zining and Ye Chenfeng. freewёbnoνel-com

"Speak, who exactly are you two?" The Sect’s Elder, Feng Qianshui, erupted with the aura of the Initial Stage of Sky-Breaking, his fierce eyes staring intently at Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining. He had long heard that the young sect master of Yun Tian Sect was adept in the way of illusion, so when Wang Anqi revealed that Xia Zining had used an illusion technique, he harbored nearly no doubt.

The oppressive aura of the Initial Stage of Sky-Breaking surged towards Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining. With her mere Profound Rank strength, Xia Zining could not withstand such a formidable force and immediately softened, her face pale, collapsing to the ground.

Although Ye Chenfeng had reached the Initial Stage of King Level Soul Force, capable of contending with the Initial Stage of Sky-Breaking, he knew he had to kill Feng Qianshui in one strike. Even though he could use the Storm Step Technique, he worried it still wouldn’t be secure enough. If Feng Qianshui dodged the attack, he would surely be held up by him. This would definitely cause a commotion and likely attract the other experts of the Sky-breaking Realm from the Tianshan Sect.

Right now, Ye Chenfeng could at best draw with an expert at the Initial Stage of Sky-Breaking. Only by using the Storm Step Technique did he stand a chance to instantly kill a Sky-Breaking expert in a surprise attack. If a Middle Stage expert came after, then he and Xia Zining’s lives would surely be forfeit today.

Therefore, when Ye Chenfeng sensed the aura of Feng Qianshui’s Initial Stage of Sky-Breaking, he, too, sat down with a thud, "Pfft!" forcing a mouthful of fresh blood from his body and looking at Feng Qianshui and the others in front of him with feigned fear and trepidation, his body shaking. During this time, he even gave Xia Zining a covert glance.

Xia Zining was a very clever woman, and upon catching Ye Chenfeng’s glance, she also forced out a mouthful of fresh blood.

"We beg for mercy, immortals! My wife and I are just country folk, please forgive us if we’ve offended you in any way. We only came here to earn a living," said Ye Chenfeng, stuttering and shivering in fear, with what appeared to be genuine terror on his face.

Seeing this scene, Feng Qianshui and the others began to feel doubtful, and they couldn’t help but cast a questioning look at Wang Anqi, wondering if he might have been mistaken—these two didn’t seem out of the ordinary, especially Ye Chenfeng, who looked to all the world like a simple country bumpkin.

Little did they know, Comrade Ye Chenfeng had been a supremely talented agent trained by the nation in his past life, and so this level of performance was nothing to him! He could control all manner of emotions and expressions to perfection.

Wang Anqi scrutinized Xia Zining, who sat paralyzed on the ground, and said, "Impossible! My instincts can’t be wrong. To know the outcome, why not just capture these two first? After all, they’re merely menial workers."

...

The steward, Huang, was in an exceptionally good mood today. After arranging for two menial workers to join the Tianshan Sect, he had already received six silver bars. After finishing his tasks, he planned to visit Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining at the storeroom. Halfway there, he was surprised to find Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining sitting paralyzed under a large tree, with none other than Elder Zhong Yang and other high-ranking members of Tianshan Sect standing before them. This left him thoroughly perplexed.

Fortunately, Huang spotted Li Weida, who was standing dumbly not far away. He approached Li Weida and asked in a low voice, "What’s going on here?"

Li Weida, also unclear on the situation, responded vaguely, "Steward Huang, I’m not sure what’s happening. It seems Elder Zhong Yang and the others are somewhat displeased with these two new menial workers."

Hearing this, Huang inwardly cursed, "Damn it." He had been the one to recruit these menial workers; what if Elder Zhong Yang’s dissatisfaction with them ended up implicating him? His previously good mood vanished without a trace, and he wanted to step forward and explain, but he lacked the courage to do so.

Feng Qianshui agreed with Wang Anqi’s view that it was better to kill the wrong person than to let one go by mistake. The situation at Tianshan Sect was not optimistic recently. Allowing someone with ulterior motives to infiltrate would be no good for the sect.

"Young Master Wang, you indeed live up to your name as the young sect master of Yun Tian Sect. Let’s capture these two first; after all, they’re merely menial workers. Even if they were killed, it wouldn’t matter," said Feng Qianshui as he walked toward Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining. He did not feel any energy fluctuations coming from them, which relaxed his vigilance considerably.

Upon seeing Feng Qianshui approaching, "paralyzed" Ye Chenfeng, trembling, helped Xia Zining stand up from the ground and began to stagger away, trying to escape. Feng Qianshui immediately shouted, "You two, stop right there."

Ye Chenfeng paid him no heed, angering Feng Qianshui. How dare two mere menial workers defy his command? Watching the slow pace of Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining, Feng Qianshui pushed off the ground and sped toward Ye Chenfeng, reaching out with his right hand to strike at Ye Chenfeng’s back.

This was a palm strike from a Sky-Breaking, Initial Stage expert. An ordinary person would likely be smashed to bits by such a hit.

Wang Anqi, Fang Ziping, and the others just stood there as if they were watching an entertaining play unfold.

Seeing Elder Zhong Yang take action, Steward Huang’s face grew more worried, while Li Weida’s face bore a schadenfreude smile. He still remembered how Ye Chenfeng had made a fool of him earlier. In Li Weida’s eyes, it was only natural for Ye Chenfeng to be slapped to death.

However, as Feng Qianshui closed in on him at high speed, Ye Chenfeng, who had been "escaping" with Xia Zining, suddenly came to a halt, turned around, and faced Feng Qianshui. Due to Feng Qianshui’s complacency, his attack was full of openings, and this was precisely the moment Ye Chenfeng had been waiting for.

King Level, Initial Stage Soul Force exploded from inside him, and the incantation for the Storm Step Technique began to circulate within. A hot energy seemed to erupt from the soles of his feet, his speed far surpassing that of Feng Qianshui, easily dodging the palm strike. A cold smile surfaced on his face as he said, "Sky-Breaking Initial Stage? Are experts of the Sky-Breaking Initial Stage really that strong?"

Feng Qianshui’s complexion changed drastically as he tried to retreat, but Ye Chenfeng wasn’t about to allow it. Masterfully executing the Storm Step Technique, small whirlwinds appeared around him as he closed in tightly on Feng Qianshui and delivered a powerful palm strike directly to Feng Qianshui’s chest.

"Pu!"

Feng Qianshui’s body went flying, and blood sprayed from his throat.

Ye Chenfeng had held nothing back with that palm strike and was certain Feng Qianshui’s heart meridian had been shattered, leaving no doubt of his demise.
