In a short while,

All the wind blades converged on Shi Feng, their overwhelming power causing everyone to pale.

Judging from this, is Li Changqing going to kill Shi Feng? This... this means he's going to have a complete and irreconcilable feud with the Shi family?

In an instant, everyone felt a chill run down their spines. If it were truly a war to the death, the entire world would be engulfed in endless conflict.

When the city gate catches fire, the fish in the moat suffer!

With the combined power of the Shi and Li families, if they were to engage in a war of attrition, the entire world would be dragged into a conflict.

That was definitely not the outcome they wanted. If they were dragged into the war, countless people would be buried alive, and the demons from beyond the realm would swarm in. How long could this world exist then? How could they possibly survive?

at the same time,

Wu Feng was about to make a move, but was stopped by the Li family. "Don't rush. Chang Qing knows what he's doing. If he goes too far, I will take action."

That's what he said, and that's what he really thought. He believed that Changqing knew what he was doing. After all, although he wasn't afraid of the Shi family, it wasn't good to break off relations. A fight to the death would obviously be unwise.

However, if Changqing really can't stop himself, he will naturally take action and will definitely not let Shi Feng really perish.

At this moment,

Everyone's breathing became heavy, and their hearts were in their throats. They were afraid that if they were not careful, the world would descend into chaos, the land would be stained with blood, and heads would roll everywhere.

As time passed, the wind grew stronger, and the elders of the Li family were preparing to make their move.

But at this very moment,

The wind stopped.

The immense power dissipated.

When everyone looked, they saw that Shi Feng was unharmed, which instantly put everyone at ease.

As expected, Li Changqing was aware of the situation and did not kill Shi Feng, nor did he even injure him. It seems that he stopped at the crucial moment, otherwise, there would have been much more trouble.

However, what happened next shocked everyone. Li Changqing suddenly clutched his chest, spitting out a mouthful of blood. His face was pale, clearly indicating that he had suffered a serious injury.

"How...how could this be?!"

"Perhaps it's the consequence of suddenly reducing my strength!"

"..."

At this moment, everyone was discussing it. In their opinion, Li Changqing was injured because he suddenly stopped using his strength.

Otherwise, with Shi Feng's cultivation level, how could he have caused Li Changqing such serious injury?

"How is it? Is it acceptable?!" Shi Feng's indifferent voice rang out.

"You..." Li Changqing was unable to utter a complete sentence for a moment. Seeing this, the elder of the Li family took action to heal his injuries and calm his boiling blood and qi.

Regarding the battle that just occurred, none of them had clearly seen what happened.

The elder of the Li family hurriedly asked, "Changqing, what happened? Did you injure yourself by suddenly withdrawing your power?"

They were only concerned with whether Shi Feng would be seriously injured or even accidentally killed by Li Changqing. The outcome was certain, so they didn't need to worry about the details.

Moreover, the strong wind just now tore through the void, creating countless wind blades, and then suddenly subsided in an instant. In other words, Li Changqing was defeated in an instant, so it was indeed not seen clearly.

Of course, those with lower cultivation levels would be completely unable to see it!

Before Li Changqing could speak, Yunlan's voice rang out, "I saw the battle just now clearly. Li Changqing lost, not because he was injured from suddenly withdrawing his power."

What? !

What! ?

What did they hear?

Li Changqing lost? He lost to Shi Feng? How is that possible?!

Ling Yun's voice also rang out, "What she said is indeed true. My husband did win. Li Changqing's injury was not caused by holding back his strength."

For some reason, she seemed to emphasize the word "husband" very heavily, as if it had a different meaning.

It seems like this was specifically said to Yunlan!

However, everyone was so shocked at the moment that no one paid attention to it, not even Shi Feng.

However, Yunlan's gaze towards Lingyun changed noticeably, while Lingyun's eyes showed an expression of "I knew it." Their eyes met, and an invisible confrontation suddenly began.

At this moment, Ling Yun finally understood why Li Changqing was targeting her husband. After all, she hadn't heard of any prior grudges, so it seemed that Li Changqing had sensed something.

However... I have never heard of when Yunlan had any contact with her husband!

While the two women were preoccupied with their own thoughts, the rest of the group remained unable to calm down for a long time.

If what the two said is true, then... then wouldn't that mean that Shi Feng's cultivation level is above Li Changqing's?

this……!

The spiritual root he transplanted couldn't possibly be a perfect match, making him weaker in combat among those of the same realm. Could it be... that he transplanted the legendary Holy Spirit Root?!

But the Holy Spirit Root has never appeared in ten thousand years. Even if it did appear, would it be so coincidental that it could fit Shi Feng?

They truly couldn't understand this, given the almost improbable probability of it happening.

Or, there's another possibility: the so-called useless spiritual root is just something the Shi family intentionally spread to conceal their true abilities? But... with the Shi family's current resources, there's absolutely no need for them to do this; it's completely unnecessary.

Could it be that something extraordinary is about to happen?

That shouldn't be the case!

After a brief silence, the Li family elder came to his senses and asked, "Changqing, is that so?"

Li Changqing seemed not to hear these words. His gaze shifted from Yun Lan to Shi Feng, the killing intent in his eyes becoming increasingly undisguised.

"Changqing!" The elder of the Li family's voice grew even louder.

Immediately,

Li Changqing came to his senses and then said, "It's not as they say. If I hadn't held back, I wouldn't have been injured."
