Chapter 105: What If I Kill Them?
The ferocious face startled Shen Qianxue, causing her to instinctively step back, eyes full of wary suspicion as she fixed her gaze on Lin Zhantian. Unease swelled within her heart—could it be that she had just escaped a pack of wolves only to fall into the tiger’s den?
Lin Zhantian, seeing Shen Qianxue's reaction, realized he had lost his composure. He himself was unaware of what had come over him. Deep inside, he had begun to regard Shen Qianxue as a woman belonging solely to him. Upon hearing that Shen Qianxue had a husband, an inexplicable surge of murderous intent erupted within him.
He immediately apologized, saying, "Miss Qianxue, please don’t misunderstand me. That’s not what I meant. I simply wish to meet your husband and discuss some terms with him."
"Oh? I wonder what terms the Sacred Land of Primordial Dawn wishes to discuss with me," came a cold, indifferent voice.
Its owner was none other than Chu Feng.
[Lin Zhantian, Child of Destiny.]
[Fate Value: 890,000.]
[Age: 865 years.]
[Innate Divine Thunder Physique, master of lightning, cultivator of the Primordial Sacred Body’s Violet Heaven Thunder Sutra—an emperor-level classic, creator of the Violet Heaven Divine Thunder, acclaimed as the greatest lightning in the Tianyuan World, mid-stage Fusion Realm, a true peerless genius.]
[Experience: From the moment Lin Zhantian met Shen Qianxue, she, seeking to escape the Jiang Family’s captivity, attempted to use Lin Zhantian through the traits of her Beauty Saint Physique, hoping to control him. However, the disparity in strength prevented her from succeeding. Nonetheless, Lin Zhantian was affected, growing infatuated and obsessed with her, awakening a powerful possessiveness. Upon learning Shen Qianxue had a husband, he developed intense murderous intent towards you, the host. Please be prepared.]
"Huh."
This time, the system unexpectedly provided information from a thousand years in the future. In such cases, two possibilities arise. The most likely is that, although Lin Zhantian is a Child of Destiny, he did not live to see that future.
If he wishes to meet me, I shall grant him his wish.
I had thought I would need to visit the Jiang Family, but it turns out there’s no need.
Yet Chu Feng did not believe things would resolve so easily. The Jiang Family would not let this matter rest; a great battle was inevitable, one that would thoroughly demonstrate his power to them.
Seeing Chu Feng appear before her, Shen Qianxue was overjoyed, as if she were a sprite rushing into his arms.
She cried out excitedly, "Husband!"
Chu Feng, instantly elated, swept Shen Qianxue up and twirled her around.
"Qianxue, forgive me. I should have come for you sooner."
"Let her go."
Just as Shen Qianxue, tears glimmering in her eyes, shook her head and prepared to speak, a chilling voice rang out from behind.
It was Lin Zhantian.
His gaze was murderous, eyes ablaze, teeth clenched, his mind echoing a singular thought—she was his woman.
Now, his woman was held in another’s arms; he could not allow this. He had to reclaim her, and so this scene unfolded.
The system had already warned Chu Feng that Lin Zhantian coveted his woman.
Moreover, as a Child of Destiny, Lin Zhantian’s killing intent had reached its peak. Chu Feng released Shen Qianxue, strode boldly toward Lin Zhantian, and snorted coldly, "So, you’re the Sacred Son of Primordial Dawn? I’ll give you a chance to rephrase your words. If you have the guts, repeat what you just said."
Dominant and full of challenge.
Lin Zhantian was unafraid of Chu Feng. He scoffed, "I told you to let go of Miss Qianxue."
Smack.
Chu Feng had no intention of indulging this so-called Sacred Son. He slapped him outright.
"Are you insane? Do you know who Qianxue is to me? She is my wife. You want me to let go? Who do you think you are?"
The slap left the scene in stunned silence.
Everyone stared in disbelief at Chu Feng. He had actually struck Lin Zhantian, the Sacred Son of Primordial Dawn.
Who was this man? Speculation ran wild.
Lin Zhantian was nearly driven mad—he had been struck! But deeper than his anger was a shadow of fear; when Chu Feng slapped him, Lin Zhantian had tried to evade, but no matter what he did, he could not escape.
For the first time ever.
Smack.
Before Lin Zhantian could recover, Chu Feng slapped him again. "I asked you a question. Didn’t you hear me? Answer!"
"Ah!"
Lin Zhantian finally snapped.
He bellowed, "I’ll kill you!"
In an instant, endless thunder gathered around him, dazzling with world-shattering radiance.
The Violet Heaven Divine Thunder, famed as the greatest lightning in the Tianyuan World, its power ranked among the top three.
Chu Feng did not know the ways of thunder, but that did not hinder him—he understood the principle of overwhelming force.
Raising his hand, he pressed down with his palm.
Dragon Subduing Palm.
Countless golden dragons soared forth, charging into the thunder.
Dragons command wind and rain, and govern thunder.
Though the Violet Heaven Divine Thunder was powerful, under the onslaught of countless golden dragons, it was instantly torn apart and dissipated, unable to unleash even a fraction of its might.
This gave Chu Feng the perfect opportunity to strike.
He had always acted without restraint.
Especially now, emboldened by his power.
To sleep with a saintess, to kill a sacred son—so be it.
"You dare to steal my woman and threaten my life? Do you truly believe I, Chu Feng, won’t kill you?"
"Die!"
The Heaven-Burning Sword.
A single strike opened the gates of heaven.
At this moment, Chu Feng showed no mercy.
With one sword, he pierced Lin Zhantian’s body before the latter could even react. Enduring intense pain, Lin Zhantian stared in disbelief, "How dare you kill me? I am the Sacred Son of Primordial Dawn!"
Chu Feng dismissed him, "So what?"
Lin Zhantian, weakly, "Are you not afraid of the Sacred Land of Primordial Dawn?"
Chu Feng shook his head. "No. If the Sacred Land of Primordial Dawn foolishly seeks revenge, I have no qualms about slaughtering them until rivers run red and the sun and moon are dimmed. Believe me—I have the power to do so."
[Beep beep. Congratulations, host. You have slain the Child of Destiny, Lin Zhantian, and gained 20,000,000 fate value, along with the following rewards:]
[Reward 1: A drop of demon god essence blood.]
[Reward 2: A celestial-grade treasure, the Violet-Gold Gourd.]
[Reward 3: One of the Thirty-Six Divine Skills—Mastery of Five Thunders.]
[Reward 4: A bloodline advancement.]
Truly worthy of the title Child of Destiny—far stronger than Zhu Neng.
This Violet-Gold Gourd—could it be for storing pills? I recall that the Supreme Elder had one, and whoever answered its call would be drawn in and instantly reduced to a pool of blood.
Remarkably, Chu Feng discovered it was indeed so, with identical effects.
There was, however, a limitation—it could only absorb those whose realm was at most one level higher than his own.
In other words, at peak Grand Ascension, he could absorb up to peak Tribulation Crossing.
If he encountered an Emperor of Immortal Ascension, it would still pose no threat.
Unless he himself set foot into the Tribulation Crossing realm.
