On both sides of the enormous arena sat many powerful figures from the upper realm, dressed in various styles.
Based on the probing of spiritual energy, these people must be the leaders of other demonic sects.
Only they are qualified to sit on equal footing with Su Mu; no one else would dare to sit in such a position rashly.
When the group saw Xiao Feng and Su Xueqing arrive, they all opened their eyes and found the two behaving very intimately.
Su Mu's face was so ugly it was almost frightening; the fact that he was even here meant that the mission to stop him had clearly failed.
When Su Xueqing saw Su Mu's expression change, she snorted coldly: "Don't think that playing those little tricks behind our backs will stop us from being here."
His tone carried a chilling undertone, sending a shiver down the spines of some of the talented young people present.
She is clearly a woman, yet she possesses such terrifying killing intent; she truly deserves to be the future successor of the Ming Cult.
Beside him, the Demon Sect leader turned to Su Mu and said, "Judging from your daughter's appearance, she should have chosen a husband long ago. Why bother to bring us here?"
His tone was extremely displeased, as if he felt that his presence was of no use whatsoever.
Seeing their expressions, Su Mu stood up and explained, "That person is a lowly person from the lower realm. The future of our dignified Ming Cult cannot be entrusted to this person."
"The lower realm?"
The power within the Demon Sect leader burst forth and fiercely attacked Xiao Feng.
Seeing their reaction, it seemed they wanted to probe the power within Xiao Feng's body.
"call out..."
Su Xueqing stepped aside to block Xiao Feng, pretending not to notice as their power approached.
"Bang..."
Worried about his daughter's safety, Su Mu could only step forward and smash that force into nothingness.
He had no idea whether these demonic sect leaders would harm his daughter.
Seeing the farce escalating, Su Mu dared not let time drag on.
"Xiao Feng, are you ready? Get on stage as soon as possible."
Seeing that Xiao Feng had not yet come up on stage, Su Xueqing lowered her voice: "Don't worry, if someone tries to kill you, just crush the teleportation jade slip, and no one can hurt you."
That thing was an extremely rare jade talisman, which could be considered an essential item for survival.
Xiao Feng looked at Su Xueqing's face and landed on the dueling platform with a loud laugh.
"I'm all ready. I wonder who dares to be the first to challenge me."
Because of Su Xueqing's obstructed view, not a single person dared to come up from below.
Seeing Su Xueqing's expression, Su Mu beckoned to her: "Xueqing, you sit next to your father, you mustn't put pressure on them."
They can only passively know the outcome and cannot influence the course of the battle from below.
Upon hearing that Su Mu had specially reserved a spot for her, Su Xueqing gritted her teeth and went upstairs.
"call out..."
A familiar figure and a familiar laugh rang out. Che Zhengqing flew up from below and stood in front of everyone, his hands placed on his chest.
"Do you dare to have a match with me? She's not someone you can have. I advise you to get down from there yourself, or you'll break an arm or a leg, which is a minor matter."
When Xiao Feng saw Che Zhengqing come up first, he knew very well that they cared a great deal about the status of the Ming Cult.
Obtaining Su Xueqing was not their original intention; their true goal was the position of the Ming Cult leader.
Below the stage, many Ming Cult disciples spoke up, saying, "Come down. We will not only not look down on you, but we will also think highly of you."
People who can emerge unscathed from danger often possess remarkable resilience.
Xiao Feng noticed that they all had their eyes on him, and he knew perfectly well that they were all expecting him to come down from above. His expression turned extremely unpleasant.
"I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you all. I'm happy to take on this competition."
As soon as he finished speaking, Che Zhengqing's expression turned extremely unpleasant. He glanced at him and said, "How about... we add another bet?"
Xiao Feng had absolutely no liking for this man, and glanced at him, saying, "Oh? Tell me about it."
Her aura was in no way inferior to Che Zhengqing's, as if the two were evenly matched in status.
Che Zhengqing scanned the people below, his face extremely ugly: "If you lose, not only will you roll down in front of all these people, I'll make you crawl like a dog."
On the high platform, Su Xueqing saw Che Zhengqing's aggressive demeanor and her face turned extremely ugly. She wished she could kill him on the spot.
However, Su Mu stayed by her side the whole time, preventing her from making a move.
"Lying like a dog won't satisfy them, how about we also bark like dogs?"
The clash between the two was so intense that the disciples below exchanged disbelief: "Does this kid intend to throw caution to the wind?"
"It is highly likely that, given Che Zhengqing's strength, killing him would be as easy as snapping his fingers."
On the high platform, Su Mu saw that the two had already announced their bet, so he quietly walked between them and said, "The bet you just made was your private matter and has nothing to do with our Ming Cult."
Even cults don't hesitate to use such methods to humiliate people.
Besides, all they have is the ability to kill; they have no capacity to insult people.
He glanced sideways at Che Zhengqing and said, "Nephew, if you can kill him, do not hold back."
Only she knew her own daughter well, and if she didn't kill Xiao Feng, she feared that other things might happen.
Che Zhengqing understood perfectly well how deep the bond was between Xiao Feng and Su Xueqing, and the spiritual energy within his body began to roar.
After giving his instructions, he looked at Xiao Feng again and said, "If you feel your life is threatened, you can jump off the stage, and then you won't be attacked."
"Please rest assured, Master, no matter how badly I fail, I will not leave this arena."
Having already promised Su Xueqing, he naturally couldn't shirk his responsibility.
Looking at Xiao Feng's provocative expression, Che Zhengqing sneered, "I will cripple your hands and feet, and let Xue Qing know who the real strongman is."
He reached out and pulled the weapon out of thin air, then swung it around in his hand several times.
The shadow of a sword gradually spread from his weapon, giving people an extremely dangerous feeling.
"Put your weapon out, or I won't give you any more time."
Seeing that he had his weapon firmly in his hand, Xiao Feng's playful nature was aroused, and he took out the water-type spiritual treasure that he had just obtained yesterday.
"A water-based spiritual treasure? Isn't this the very magical artifact that Che Yongyan just gifted me yesterday?"
The Ming Cult members below the stage, seeing him bring out such a thing, mocked him: "I don't think he even has his own weapon. How can someone like him be your opponent?"
"It would be better to surrender sooner rather than later, which would save a lot of time."
As Che Zhengqing heard the people praising him, he laughed loudly, "Haha, even your magic weapon was a gift from us, what use are you?"
Xiao Feng ignored him, slightly opened his right hand, and frantically poured the spiritual power into the water-type spiritual treasure.
In an instant, he suddenly clenched his fist: "Water Curtain Heavenly Splendor".
