The Art of Chaotic Divinity

Chapter 368: You're the Ones Who Are Scum!

"You!" The leader of Zhenlong Academy named Ye Fan's eyes flashed with anger momentarily, but he quickly suppressed it and put on a smile. "Hmph, Gu Tengfeng, I admire your capabilities, but the teammates you've chosen are pathetically weak!

"We were each minding our own business on our respective missions, but your team happened to take away something I had already set my eyes on. How do you explain that?"

As Ye Fan spoke, he fixed his gaze on Ling Feng and smirked coldly. "I discovered this Blue Moon Vermilion Fruit long ago. If I had hurried over to pick it, you would have been too late. Brother Gu, what would you have done in my place?"

"You're clearly distorting the truth!"

Lin Xian'er gritted her teeth. These people clearly coveted the Blue Moon Vermilion Fruit in Ling Feng's hands. What they claimed to have spotted was thousands of yards away; the Misty Hidden Forest's greatest feature was its pervasive fog. With their vision, could they see a small plant from thousands of yards away?

"Hahaha! Who do you think you are, junior sister?"

Ye Fan's eyes flashed with a cold light, and a domineering aura swept over, causing Lin Xian'er to involuntarily step back three paces. Her mind was trembling.

Ling Feng stepped forward, pressing his hand on Lin Xian'er's shoulder before standing in front of her. His intent to kill erupted which forcefully pushed back Ye Fan's aura.

"Hmph, you're clearly here to snatch it. Why bother with such hypocritical reasons?"

Ling Feng stared at Ye Fan with disdain, his voice cold. "If you want something from me, let your strength speak!"

Where there were treasures, there was competition—this truth was eternal!

Ling Feng naturally understood the other party's intentions. However, the Blue Moon Vermilion Fruit was already in his pocket. Making him give it up wouldn't be so easy!

Ye Fan's expression changed slightly. Ling Feng's killing intent was almost tangible, making even him feel a slight fear.

This person was definitely not simple!

A hint of seriousness flashed in Ye Fan's eyes. However, to let go of such a valuable item like the Blue Moon Vermilion Fruit was absolutely impossible.

"Senior Brother Ye, we have the absolute upper hand here. That kid is asking for trouble. Why don't we..." Beside Ye Fan, a dark-skinned man gestured as if slashing at his own neck.

In this deep mountain and old forest, even if they killed students from Tianwei Academy, who would know?

This way, they could not only obtain the Blue Moon Vermilion Fruit and whatever the students from Tianwei Academy had on them but also eliminate a competitor in the demon slaying mission. It could be described as killing two birds with one stone.

"Do you think it's your place to advise me?"

Ye Fan snorted lightly, his gaze fixed on Ling Feng. However, seeing Ling Feng casually storing the Blue Moon Vermilion Fruit into his storage spirit ring right in front of him ignited a raging fire of anger within Ye Fan.

What an audacious little brat, daring to disregard me!

A cold light flashed in Ye Fan's eyes, clearly indicating murderous intent.

Gu Tengfeng calmly walked up beside Ling Feng and used Covert Sound Transmission to convey, "Ling Feng, if we really fight later, we might not gain the upper hand. I'll hold them back; you lead the others and go ahead!"

"But Captain!"

"No buts, this is an order!" Gu Tengfeng signaled to Ling Feng with his eyes. "Trust me, they can't do anything to me alone! Finding Xiaofan's family first is our top priority!"

With that, Gu Tengfeng reached out to push Ling Feng behind him. His gaze then fixed on Ye Fan as he demanded in a cold voice, "Ye Fan, I advise you not to act recklessly."

"Senior Brother Ye, why waste words with them?"

A robust man in a dark blue long gown furrowed his thick eyebrows and said boldly, "Isn't it just Gu Tengfeng? With Senior Brother here to stop that guy, the rest are no match for us at all!"

As he spoke, the man in the green gown glanced at the scattered cultivators of the hunting team nearby, sneering. "What? You useless bunch of cultivators are still not running away? This is a matter of our Zhenlong Academy. You scum dare to meddle?"

"You!" Mo Yao trembled with anger, pointing her sword at the man in the green gown while gritting her teeth. "Though we are wandering cultivators, we still understand loyalty! It's you who are shameless, resorting to bullying and plundering. You're the scum!"

"Haha, well said! Sister Mo Yao, that was spot on!"

Lin Xian'er immediately applauded, while Gu Tengfeng and Ling Feng nodded in agreement, both looking at Mo Yao with increased respect.

"Ignorant fools!" The man in the green gown chuckled coldly. "I hope you can still talk tough when I stomp you into the ground later!"

"Who will be the ones on the ground later remains unknown!" Mo Yao's temperament flared like fire as she shouted, "If you have the guts, face me one-on-one!"

"Interesting!" The man in the green gown burst into laughter as he emanated a strong killing intent. "Since when do you dirt dwellers dare challenge geniuses like us?"

"Let's fight then!"

Mo Yao immediately drew her long sword, aiming directly at the green-robed man's forehead. Though she knew she couldn't compare to those top-tier geniuses, the green-robed man only had around forty meridian gates. She could still put up a decent fight.

"Let me show you what happens to trash like you who is only fit to roll in the gutter!"

The green-robed man leaped into the air, his sword gleaming brightly as he unsheathed it. A cold light could be seen falling swiftly as he aimed towards Mo Yao's forehead.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The clash of swords sent rocks and soil flying into the air and created clouds of dust. Within moments, the two figures in the haze clashed continuously, neither gaining the upper hand.

"How is this possible?"

The green-robed man's face darkened slightly. Facing a wandering cultivator, he couldn't gain the upper hand which was a stark contrast to his earlier boasting. His face burned with embarrassment.

"Haha! Well done, Sister Mo Yao!"

Lin Xian'er, Yun Yiyi, and Bai Yushuang immediately cheered for Mo Yao.

"This Mo Yao seems quite extraordinary!"

Ling Feng rubbed his nose. Judging from Mo Yao's swordsmanship and elemental qi, she was no ordinary wandering cultivator. Regular cultivators wouldn't have the opportunity to attain such high-tier sword skills, let alone be able to compete evenly with the geniuses from Zhenlong Academy.

Even though she had reached the peak of the third level of the Transformation Realm, it was still inconceivable.

"In less than three moves, Mo Yao is about to overpower her opponent."

Ling Feng's eyebrows raised. True enough, with two intersecting sword lights, Mo Yao's horizontal slash had already knocked the green-robed man's sword away. Her blade pointed straight at his throat, decisively sealing the victory.

"Hmph, it seems your trash talking has backfired. So, are you not even fit to be called trash?"

Mo Yao stared coldly at the green-robed man. "Don't think being a student of the four major academies makes you impressive! Among wandering cultivators, there are also masters!"

"Well said!"

"Haha, Captain is mighty! Captain is amazing!"

The members of the Shadow Strike Hunting Team were excited. Mo Yao's actions had undoubtedly brought great honor to them as wandering cultivators.

"Hmph!"

Mo Yao disdainfully glanced at the green-robed man, sheathed her sword, and turned to return to her team.

"You damn bitch, you're asking for it!"

However, the moment Mo Yao turned around, the green-robed man unexpectedly launched a sudden attack, hurling a Bone-Piercing Needle directly towards Mo Yao's back!
