Pursued by the Top Grade Saintess after Engagement Annulled
Chapter 557 - 553: Dealing with the Qin Family Brothers (Part 1)
Qin Tian seemed especially fearful. He had just spoken forcefully, but that was because Xia Feng had been controlled within the talisman array, making Qin Tian feel secure enough to speak that way.
Now seeing Xia Feng easily emerge from the talisman array, Qin Tian felt an immense fear.
At this moment, he shrank behind Qin Fei, not daring to face Xia Feng even after being slapped.
Xia Feng raised an eyebrow, watching the two brothers argue, his expression showing a hint of impatience: "You two are really noisy."
"Let me think, who should I deal with first?"
"It seems the traitor is more despicable."
As his words fell, the Heaven-Burying Sword in Xia Feng’s hand had already pierced through Qin Tian’s chest, stabbing him through.
Qin Tian seemed not to have realized what had happened, his pupils suddenly widened as he looked at the nearby Xia Feng, his mouth opening as if he still wanted to argue something.
But as soon as he opened his mouth, a gush of blood sprayed out.
Xia Feng sidestepped slightly to avoid the blood, looking at Qin Tian with even more impatience, then jerked the Heaven-Burying Sword out with a flick of his wrist.
More blood oozed from Qin Tian’s chest as Xia Feng squinted slightly at him: "A traitor meeting such an end is not really a problem, is it?"
Qin Fei’s pupils also trembled. Although he didn’t like this brother, Qin Tian was his blood brother, a direct lineage of the Qin Family.
To die just like this inside the Secret Realm, once he goes out, he’s afraid their father would break half his leg.
Qin Fei’s eyes were slightly red as he glared in Xia Feng’s direction: "You actually killed him, you actually dared to kill him! Do you know the Qin Family’s status in the Divine Domain?"
"You dared to kill a member of our direct lineage, you’re courting death!"
Xia Feng’s expression showed more impatience, looking at Qin Fei with a trace of contempt in his eyes: "If everyone in your Qin Family is like this, you’d better hide away early, otherwise I’m afraid one day the Celestial Sound Orthodoxy will be dragged down by your family."
Qin Fei looked puzzled: "What do you mean by that?"
Xia Feng let out a cold laugh: "I mean your family doesn’t know how to behave, it’s easy to offend people outside. Be careful not to provoke someone you shouldn’t. It would be a disaster for the entire Celestial Sound Orthodoxy to be buried with your family."
Qin Fei felt Xia Feng was mocking him, and his body trembled with anger, layers of talisman arrays started spreading over him.
The Qin Family might not have much ability, but after existing for so many years, they had accumulated capital, and these talisman arrays for defense and attack were probably prepared by the Qin Family Patriarch for Qin Fei’s use.
The initial plan was likely to protect himself in the Secret Realm, and if opportunity allowed, to return with some inheritance from the Celestial Sound Divine Emperor.
But it was unexpected that Qin Fei used them in a pointless quarrel over jealousy.
Xia Feng merely glanced at him twice, the cold smile on his lips widening, seemingly showing utter disdain for his actions.
The prodigies behind Qin Fei wore inquisitive expressions, having witnessed Xia Feng’s abilities outside the great gate initially.
However, these people still thought their skills and defenses untested, with Xia Feng, a rustic boy from the sticks, unlikely to handle their varied attacks.
Seeing Xia Feng’s cold smile, these people felt a slight unease in their hearts.
It seemed that Xia Feng wasn’t afraid of Qin Fei’s methods at all. Did he have some card up his sleeve?
These prodigies exchanged glances, stepping back a bit from Qin Fei, as if distancing themselves from him.
Xia Feng cast a mocking gaze over the distant prodigies, then returned his focus to Qin Fei.
At this moment, Qin Fei was enveloped in ten layers of protective shields, each layer of light surrounding him.
The protective barriers formed by the talisman arrays gave Qin Fei a lot of confidence, his gaze upon Xia Feng now tinged with contempt.
He turned his head to look at Qi Wan’Er: "Wan’Er, you know I like you the most, so I’m willing to give you another chance."
"As long as you stand by me, once I deal with this kid, you can even share part of the Secret Realm’s inheritance."
"If you wish to become the successor of the Divine King, it’s impossible without the support of the Qin Family."
He squinted slightly, eyes filled with a lecherous gleam: "With my brother dead, the future Patriarch of the Qin Family is only me."
"If you don’t accept my help, I’ll offer it to another Divine Maiden."
Qin Fei sneered coldly: "Don’t forget, you’ve only just returned as the Lower Realm Goddess for two years, and your father has other Divine Maidens as well."
The cold air around Xia Feng was almost undisguised: "Are you threatening Wan’Er?"
Qin Fei sneered: "I’m just stating the facts, how about it, are you triggered?"
Xia Feng’s face grew increasingly grim, and behind him, Qi Wan’Er also looked displeased: "I told you long ago, whoever wants that successor position can have it, I’m just satisfied being with my husband."
"The successor position you all vie for is worthless to me."
"Tying me down with such things is utterly laughable."
Qin Fei gritted his teeth, staring at Qi Wan’Er. "You’re just being stubborn. How could there be a Divine Maiden who doesn’t care about the successor position?"
Xia Feng had no patience to listen to Qin Fei any longer. He lightly swung the Heaven-Burying Sword in his hand, an intense cold covering the blade, lowering the surrounding temperature.
Qin Fei’s eyes were filled with a hint of fear and confusion: "How can you wield the Great Dao of Extreme Ice?"
"In the Celestial Sound Secret Realm, besides the Great Dao of Music, no other Dao should be usable. How did you do it?"
Xia Feng let out a cold laugh: "If you really want to know, go to hell and find the answer!"
At the end of his words, a deep bell sound echoed, changing the faces of all the prodigies present. Especially Qin Fei, who seemed reminded of the earlier defeat at the entrance.
"It’s only been a few days, and you can use this kind of attack so frequently?"
Until now, Qin Fei still thought that the way Xia Feng controlled so many prodigies outside the Secret Realm gate involved some special trick.
He believed Xia Feng’s method couldn’t be used frequently, maybe even only once, which gave him the courage to confront Xia Feng here.
But hearing the familiar bell sound, Qin Fei’s brain felt like it was struck by a hammer again.
All thoughts vanished, and all he wanted was to escape from here.
