The demonic soul trembled.
He was even wondering if he could gain the Crown Prince's forgiveness if he helped Lin Feng assassinate Tian Yusheng now.
No... He has to contact His Highness the Crown Prince first, and then follow His Highness's orders!
Demon Soul was fearless in the face of death. He was seriously considering how to apologize to Lin Feng later in order to gain His Highness's forgiveness!
Just as the demon soul was filled with fear and apprehension, the battle on the arena came to a conclusion.
"Cough cough cough!"
Shen Xiaohong was already struggling to cope with the constant pressure from Lin Feng's sword formation. Now that Lin Feng had broken through and his momentum had surged, he easily found Shen Xiaohong's weakness. The hilt of Lin Feng's sword struck Shen Xiaohong's chest, causing him to stagger back several steps and spit out a mouthful of blood.
This was only because Lin Feng held back; if that sword strike had landed squarely, Shen Xiaohong would have been seriously injured.
But Lin Feng obviously didn't need to go that far.
He also understood that Shen Xiaohong had not gone all out; he must still have some trump cards up his sleeve.
After all, the ruins will open in another month, and powerful figures from all sides will gather at that time. If their trump cards are revealed, it will obviously not be a good thing for Shen Xiaohong.
Shen Xiaohong decisively admitted defeat.
"Brother Lin has won! I am ashamed of my inferiority!"
"What the hell? The winner is actually Lin Feng, who is at the fifth level of the Divine Tribulation Realm?"
"My Crimson Blood Crystals!! I've lost them all!"
"Why is this happening? To defeat a level nine Divine Tribulation Realm cultivator with only a level five Divine Tribulation Realm cultivation... There has never been anything so shocking!"
At the location of the Xuan Yan Dynasty, Xia Shiying's mouth dropped open slightly.
"That guy... won?"
"Amazing!"
Li Qinghe stared intently at Lin Feng on the stage with her starry eyes. If she had some reservations about Lin Feng before, the strength he had shown had completely won her over!
[Li Qinghe, the Chosen One, has gained favorability; reward: 3000 Destiny Points!]
[Li Qinghe's favorability is rapidly increasing]
With 3000 Destiny Points, that girl is quite a target.
Lin Feng sheathed his sword and jumped off the stage.
Following this, numerous palace maids and eunuchs tallied the victories and, combined with each person's performance on the field, compiled a ranking, which was then presented to Emperor Xuan Yan.
"Please take a look, Your Majesty."
Mo Yuandao presented the rankings with both hands.
Xuan Yanhuang took it and examined it; there was generally no problem.
First place: Lin Feng!
Second place: Shen Xiaohong!
Third place: Shangguan Qingning!
Fourth place: Feng Yushang!
...
After that, they were mostly disciples of dynasties and various ancient clans. The Yuwen family, who had no say in the Xuan Yan Star Realm in the past, actually managed to get tenth place. It can be said that ignoring the Eastern Clan, this Hundred Sects Martial Arts Tournament was quite successful and everyone was happy.
As they departed, the leaders of various factions bid farewell to Emperor Xuan Yan with unprecedented fervor.
Dongfang Qing, however, had led the Dongfang clan away in a sorry state at some unknown time.
Lin Feng was talking with Shen Xiaohong when Feng Yushang beside him whispered, "Your Highness."
"It has the scent of demonic souls."
Um?
Feng Yushang has lived in the Northern Divine Region for many years and is very familiar with this aura.
But Lin Feng was puzzled.
Why would a demonic soul appear in the perfectly peaceful Xuan Yan Star Realm?
Before he could capture the demon soul for interrogation, the thing appeared in his dantian.
"Your Highness! Your subordinate, Mo Ye, has come here specifically to apologize to Your Highness!"
"Oh? What crime have you committed?"
Lin Feng became interested.
He placed Mo Yuan in the Northern Divine Region to monitor Luo Haoqun, but he never expected to encounter another demon soul in the Xuan Yan Star Realm.
If used properly, this thing can be quite useful.
Mo Ye cautiously revealed the connection between himself and Tian Yusheng.
What?
Lin Feng frowned.
"System, in Li Jingxiao's original life, did a person named Mo Ye exist?"
The system retrieved detailed information about Mo Ye, and only then did they understand what had happened.
This guy had always coveted Li Jingxiao's body, wanting to possess it and take his place. However, because Li Jingxiao's Holy Body was far stronger than he had imagined, his plan naturally failed. Mo Ye became nourishment for the Holy Body, indirectly giving Li Jingxiao a great opportunity.
"So that's how it is..."
"Please punish me, Your Highness!"
"No need. You haven't done anything too outrageous. I also don't like Li Jingxiao. After we deal with him, it's not impossible for me to give you my body."
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Mo Ye was overjoyed, not expecting that Lin Feng would not only not blame him, but would also reward him.
"However, from now on you will be monitoring Tianyusheng for me. You must tell me whatever he does, understand?"
"Yes, Tian Yusheng is currently mainly conducting research on replicating the Holy Body. He intends to curb Li Jingxiao's growth rate. Otherwise... Li Jingxiao's Holy Body has already reached the second stage, and he should have broken through to the seventh level of the Divine Tribulation Realm long ago."
Mo Ye said respectfully.
"At the same time, Tian Yusheng will also disguise the evil pills he developed as ordinary healing pills and feed them to Li Jingxiao, intending to gradually extract the power of the Holy Body. However, there has been no progress so far. Moreover, because Tian Yusheng is not familiar with alchemy, I personally guide him in refining most of the pills."
"Alright, next I require you to change the formula of the pill. While ensuring that Li Jingxiao's cultivation is suppressed, you must not allow his sacred body to suffer the slightest damage. Do you understand?"
That was nourishment for the Chaos God-Demon Body; Lin Feng couldn't just stand by and watch Tian Yusheng ruin it.
