Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law-Chapter 599 - 594: The Fastest Man

Hong Gaishi's injuries had been healed by the Fourth Hall Master, Hong Wuji, and with his help, he successfully advanced to the Grandmaster of the Golden Core Realm. However, since his advancement didn't take place in the Spirit Essence Pool of the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm, his realm wasn't directly stabilized.

"Gaishi, Ye Feng hasn't shown up until now. I'm afraid he has already gone ahead on his own, along with the two prodigies from the Chi and Xiao families," someone said.

A middle-aged man at Hong Gaishi's side spoke up.

Hong Gaishi's face was filled with resentment as he coldly said, "Going ahead on their own, I hope they run into some trouble on the way."

As Hong Gaishi spoke, his eyes suddenly shifted, looking towards the middle-aged man beside him.

"Elder Hong Qing, aren't you able to get in touch with someone from the Sword Saint Palace in Fusang Kingdom?"

Hong Gaishi asked.

The middle-aged man beside him was none other than Hong Qing, who had previously participated in the battle for the Void Spirit Fruit.

At that moment, Hong Qing was taken aback but quickly nodded in confirmation. He indeed had a way to contact someone from the Sword Saint Palace in Fusang Kingdom.

The Sword Saint Palace in Fusang Kingdom was also part of the forces under the Yin-Yang Temple in the Outer Battlefield.

Although it was called the Yin-Yang Temple, it didn't only have Onmyoji, as other powers of Fusang Kingdom were also part of the Yin-Yang Temple.

Within the Yin-Yang Temple, Sword Saint Palace was considered one of the larger factions, with plenty of strong individuals and numerous members.

Hong Qing had previously interacted with people from the Sword Saint Palace in the Outer Battlefield, so he had the means to contact them.

Seeing Hong Qing nod, Hong Gaishi let out a sly smile, "Then it will be easy. Before Ye Feng entered the Outer Battlefield, back on Earth, he once targeted the Sword Saint Palace, destroyed their Mountain Protection Array, and killed quite a few of their people."

"As far as I know, it has always been their own people who go to the talent competition at the Talent List Conference. So, if Ye Feng and the others haven't shown up later, Elder Hong Qing, you can notify the Sword Saint Palace and tell them Ye Feng will be attending this Talent List Conference."

"As long as they aren't fools, they will definitely set up an ambush for Ye Feng on the way or near the conference site."

Hong Gaishi's face showed a vicious look. He knew that with his current strength, it was absolutely impossible for him to contend with Ye Feng.

Ye Feng's solo battle against seven Grandmasters of the Golden Core Realm during the pursuit of the Void Spirit Fruit was something already known to many, but the news hadn't completely spread yet since it was somewhat shameful.

At that time, there were also Bu Tianyun and Golden Cicada, two individuals of Heaven's Pride Level, who cared about their reputation and ordered to keep the news under wraps after leaving.

Yet, within the major powers, the information was already somewhat understood.

Hong Gaishi had also heard from Hong Qing about Ye Feng's incomparably strong combat power. At first, he couldn't believe it, but Hong Qing and Hong Zhong, two elders of the Hong family, said the same thing. Both of the Hong family elders wouldn't lie to him, he thought, allowing him to accept this fact.

Now, he no longer expected to deal with Ye Feng personally. He was only a newly advanced Grandmaster of the Golden Core Realm, while Ye Feng was already a freak capable of single-handedly fighting seven Grandmasters. How could he compete? Even if he went to find Ye Feng now, he would surely be defeated in a single move, and he wasn't that foolish.

That's why he thought of the Sword Saint Palace. Ye Feng hadn't been in the Outer Battlefield for long, and his information was basically only known to those in Xuanyuan Hall. The forces from the Fusang Yin-Yang Hall were essentially sworn enemies of Xuanyuan Hall, and it was only through an accidental transaction that Elder Hong Qing had made contact with them previously. After the transaction, there had been virtually no further contact.

Using the uninformed Sword Saint Palace to deal with Ye Feng was undoubtedly an excellent plan. Moreover, it was rumored that recently, the Sword Saint Palace had a Great Power who had broken through to the Yin-Yang Realm. That Great Power of the Yin-Yang Realm would definitely lead the people of the Sword Saint Palace to the talent competition site.

With a Great Power of the Yin-Yang Realm joined by the masters of the Sword Saint Palace, Ye Feng would certainly be taken care of.

Hong Qing also realized Hong Gaishi's intentions, his eyes lighting up, "This plan is good, it's just a pity about the Void Spirit Fruit."

He was still distressed over the loss of the Void Spirit Fruit, as it had initially been he and Hong Zhong who first discovered its location. They'd thought nobody would notice it, but the news leaked anyway and the Void Spirit Fruit ended up being snatched away by Ye Feng and the others.

"The Void Spirit Fruit and such are no longer important. The main focus is on Ye Feng. He's completely out of our control. His growth is just too terrifying. Before entering the Outer Battlefield, he was only a Half-Step Golden Core powerhouse, and now, in just one month's time, he's grown to such an extent. He absolutely cannot be allowed to continue growing," Hong Gaishi said.

"The grievances with our Hong family are set, and he'll undoubtedly be the first to trouble our Hong family in the future. He's a sworn enemy who must be eliminated now rather than later, or he'll become a never-ending problem!" Hong Gaishi's expression was grave, as the existence of Ye Feng now instilled deep fear in him. Back on Earth, he could look down on Ye Feng, but now he found himself looking up to him, and this wasn't an acceptable situation.

Hong Qing nodded with a solemn expression, "Gaishi, what you said makes sense. The Fourth Hall Master already wanted to get rid of Ye Feng previously, but the First Hall Master stopped him last time."

Hong Qing's expression wasn't pleasant, as this was something he had heard from the Fourth Hall Master, Hong Wuji, only after returning from the battle for the Void Spirit Fruit.

"Let's not worry about other things for now and just wait a bit longer to see if Ye Feng shows up," Hong Gaishi said, squinting his eyes and continuously observing the strong figures arriving from various places. Before long, he noticed that the Bu Family had also arrived, apparently also looking for someone, much like Hong Gaishi.

After half a day had passed, Golden Cicada had arrived, but Ye Feng still hadn't appeared.

"Elder Hong Qing, notify the Sword Saint Palace. If Ye Feng hasn't come by now, he must've already set off earlier with Chi Jark and Xiao Rulong," said Hong Gaishi, calculating the time. Now the people from Xuanyuan Hall were about to assemble completely and ready to depart soon, making his judgment confirmable.

As for Ye Feng, would he not go to the Talent Competition at the genius rankings?

He didn't even need to consider it. Even if Ye Feng, with his exceptional talent, did not desire Origin Energy, there were still Chi Jark and Xiao Rulong, these two prodigies of the Ancient Clans would definitely not give up the opportunity to enter the Source Secret Realm this time.

Every prodigy would grasp every opportunity well and would never miss any chance to improve themselves.

Otherwise, why would prodigies be stronger than ordinary cultivators?

Merely talent?

If one only has talent but fails to seize opportunities, even the strongest talent could be wasted.

Don't forget, Hong Gaishi himself is also a personage on the level of a prodigy. At the mere age of twenty-seven, he had already reached the realm of a Grandmaster of the Golden Core Realm. Although it was because he had entered the Spirit Essence Pool of the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm, it is undeniable that Hong Gaishi's talent is also extremely high.

At this time, an extremely terrifying aura had already filled the Xuanyuan Hall, and everyone instantly quieted down, all looking towards the Xuanyuan Hall.

The figure of the First Hall Master had already risen from within the Xuanyuan Hall, his majestic figure arriving at the doorway of the hall as if he were the ruler of this heaven and earth.

Many people were still shocked upon seeing the First Hall Master, mysterious and powerful, these were the impressions the First Hall Master gave them.

The First Hall Master arrived in front of the Xuanyuan Hall, looking down at the crowd below. After a brief glance, there were less than fifty people, and fewer than ten could actually go to the Talent Competition of the genius rankings.

The First Hall Master swept his eyes over the crowd, his eyebrows slightly furrowing as he couldn't see Ye Feng's figure.

Could this youngster be planning not to go?

The First Hall Master was pondering this when he looked again and realized neither Chi Jark from the Chi Family nor Xiao Rulong from the Xiao Family were there either!

He immediately understood that Ye Feng must have headed to the location of the Talent Competition with these two men on their own.

The First Hall Master didn't think too much about it, nor was he worried. He naturally knew about the news of the Void Spirit Fruit's battle for ownership. He had been quite surprised earlier, but now, although Ye Feng had gone ahead with Chi Jark and Xiao Rulong, he probably didn't need to worry about their safety.

In his mind, the First Hall Master reckoned that the three of them together could probably even fight it out with a Great Power of the Yin-Yang Realm if they encountered one.

Without thinking further, he turned to the people before him.

"Follow me, and don't be too slow, or if you fall behind and encounter danger, I will not be responsible."

The First Hall Master spoke coldly, and then his figure flew off in a certain direction. In front of the Xuanyuan Hall, everyone also stood up and followed the First Hall Master.

As the Xuanyuan Hall made its official departure, Ye Feng and his group were already on their way.

Currently, Ye Feng was leading the way, with Long Nannan and Sausage Sister flying ahead, followed closely by Chi Jark and Xiao Rulong.

Because Long Nannan and Sausage Sister were completely unable to match the speed of the Chi Family's Footwork and the Xiao Family Body Technique, Ye Feng naturally had to lead these two to avoid delaying the journey.

Chi Jark followed right behind Ye Feng and couldn't help but complain, "Is this guy even human? It's one thing to have powerful combat strength, but how can he be so fast, too?"

He had already pushed the Chi Family's Footwork to the limit, but still couldn't surpass Ye Feng's speed and could only follow behind.

If Chi Jark knew that Ye Feng hadn't even fully unleashed his speed, he probably would be so mad he could spit blood.

Xiao Rulong, who was beside Chi Jark and could roughly keep up with his speed, said helplessly, "There's nothing you can do. This guy just defies all logic, what can you do about it?"

He had also pushed his body technique to the limit and still couldn't catch up with Ye Feng, leaving him feeling rather resigned.

Chi Jark, looking at the figure of Ye Feng leading the two, suddenly remarked, "This guy, I truly consider him to be the fastest man!"

Xiao Rulong stumbled at this comment, almost falling mid-air, and gave Chi Jark a strange look.

The fastest man?

Xiao Rulong's eyes twitched, feeling that was quite a statement from Chi Jark.

But just then, a powerful aura erupted ahead, and a flash of black light suddenly appeared.

Chi Jark paused, looking ahead. The black light had appeared right behind Ye Feng and the next second, it swiftly flew towards Chi Jark.

"Sky-breaking Divine Spear!?"

Chi Jark's eyes bulged out, and he was instantly dumbstruck.
