Chapter 1253: Chapter 1253: The Arrival of Gu Xingfeng

“Master Feng, spare me! Master Feng, I’ll do anything if you spare me.”

Xu Ran begged for mercy in terror, kneeling in the void before Feng Wuchen.

Feng Wuchen fought against four and could instantly kill three elders; his terrifying power was beyond Xu Ran’s ability to resist.

“Xu City Lord actually kneels and begs for mercy?”

“Am I seeing things? The revered City Lord is scared to the point of kneeling?”

“Hmph! Didn’t expect Xu Ran would face this today! Serves him right!”

Seeing Xu Ran kneel in the void, numerous cultivators of Ancient Wind City were in a frenzy.

“Xu Ran, concerning your deeds, I’ve made an effort to learn a bit.” Feng Wuchen spoke coldly, “Three months ago, you forcibly seized the civil woman Liu Cuiyun, killed her parents and brother, eventually causing Liu Cuiyun to commit suicide.”

“Before this incident, you forcibly tarnished three women, afraid they would ruin your reputation, you then cruelly killed them, am I wrong?” Feng Wuchen spoke coldly.

The intelligence of Tianying Pavilion is extremely well-informed; perhaps others don’t know about Xu Ran’s deeds, but he couldn’t hide them from Tianying Pavilion.

“Indeed, there’s such a thing, Master Feng, I will change! I implore Master Feng to spare my life!” Xu Ran kowtowed and begged.

“Things less than beasts shouldn’t exist in this world!” Feng Wuchen spoke coldly, his eyes flashing with fierce killing intent.

“Whoosh!”

“Slash!”

“Feng…”

In the instant the words fell, Feng Wuchen flickered outward, arriving instantly, the dagger mercilessly slashing across Xu Ran’s neck, spraying blood as the latter uttered just one word, his expression instantly rigid, then falling down.

Feng Wuchen’s speed was terrifying, Xu Ran was completely unaware.

The instant movement left Xu Ran defenseless.

Xu Ran, City Lord of Ancient Wind City, dead!

“The City Lord… died…” The guards looked at the falling Xu Ran in extreme terror.

With a single thrust sealing the throat, Xu Ran’s aura had completely dissipated.

The entire Ancient Wind City was silent, everyone’s gaze on the fallen Xu Ran, seemingly unable to believe the fact he was killed.

“Xu City Lord was killed!”

“Who is he exactly? To have such terrifying power, unable to see clearly when he made a move.”

“To kill Xu City Lord in the blink of an eye! How is this possible!”

“Good kill! Good kill! Xu Ran deserved to die!”

The observing cultivators of Ancient Wind City, after shock and terror, exploded instantly.

Who dares believe a mid-stage Heavenly Monarch could instantly kill a late-stage Heavenly Monarch?

No matter how weak Xu Ran was, he could not be completely unaware, right?

Of course, they didn’t understand how powerful instant movement could be.

Looking at the fallen Xu Ran, Feng Wuchen said, “Honestly, I didn’t want to kill you either, but Tianying Pavilion’s standard is such, enforcing justice with heaven.”

The bounty task list at Tianying Pavilion consists of traitorous evildoers, and the assassin’s existence is specifically to kill these traitors.

Of course, another part is killing for bounties! No matter who, as long as the bounty is enough, there will be assassins taking the task.

“Xu Ran committed numerous evil deeds, this is his end!” Feng Wuchen slowly floated to the main city square, coldly sweeping his gaze at the crowd, scaring the family heads, elders, and guards from three major families to great fear.

“What Master Feng says is right! Xu Ran deserves his fate!” The leaders of the Li Family nodded repeatedly.

“Boom!”

With a thought, Wu Fire emerged out of thin air in Feng Wuchen’s palm, then with a flick, a strand of black flame shot out, burning Xu Ran’s corpse to ashes in a blink.

The extremely terrifying cold aura frightened the Li Family head and others to soul-stirring fear, a suffocating feeling.

“Black flames!” Gong Family’s head showed fear, thinking secretly: “Heard in the Artifact Refining conference, Master Feng’s true fire is black flame, extremely terrifying.”

“Is that the black flame rumored in the Ling Realm? The flame is actually a cold aura!” Li Family’s head thought fearfully.

Feng Wuchen waved, Wu Fire dissipated, and Xu Ran’s corpse had turned to ashes and scattered.

Overall, the task went smoothly, fortunately, the identity as a Divine Grade Artifact Refiner intimidated the three major families; otherwise, they would’ve joined forces, wasting Feng Wuchen’s time.

Task completed, Feng Wuchen flew away.

The entire place was silent, all were engulfed in fear.

Everything happened too swiftly, so quickly, it felt unreal to them, like in a dream.

“Whoosh!”

Just after Feng Wuchen leaves, high above Ancient Wind City, a black shadow flickered into view.

The newcomer was Gu Xingfeng, a reverend from Spirit Emperor Temple.

“Has Wind Shadow’s cultivation broken through again? How’s that possible? He truly has a terrifying cultivation speed?” Gu Xingfeng furrowed his brows, saying: “This brat’s growth speed is comparable to a monstrous talent, no, it should be said, more terrifying than a monstrous talent, I have never seen a genius with such a terrifying cultivation speed.”

“Spirit Emperor’s concerns are not unfounded, if Wind Shadow continues cultivating for a few years, by then Spirit Emperor won’t be able to do anything against him either.” Gu Xingfeng frowned, the more he thought, the more he dreaded Feng Wuchen.

“Easily killing three Heavenly Monarchs, instant movement can even kill late-stage Heavenly Monarchs, Wind Shadow’s strength is feared, under Heavenly Deity Realm, no one can defeat him.” Gu Xingfeng said.

“Reporting to Spirit Emperor, Wind Shadow’s cultivation has already broken through mid-stage Heavenly Monarch, if not eliminated, future troubles will abound, should we eliminate him, I am absolutely confident to kill him.” Gu Xingfeng quickly relayed to Spirit Emperor.

In the grand hall of Spirit Emperor Temple, Spirit Emperor slowly opened his eyes.

“Breaking through mid-stage Heavenly Monarch so quickly? Truly terrifying cultivation speed, amidst the entire Heavenly Realm, few possess such fearsome cultivation speed.” Spirit Emperor furrowed his brows deeply, his eyes flickering with ferocity.

“Given his cultivation speed, it wouldn’t be long before he steps into Heavenly Deity Realm; feared in a few years he can even break through Heavenly Emperor’s realm, such a terrifying enemy, the great reverend blatantly ignores, once he grows powerful, the consequences are unimaginable.” Spirit Emperor thought furiously, the more he considered, the greater the threat Feng Wuchen posed.

Upon this thought, Spirit Emperor relayed, “Gu Xingfeng, kill Wind Shadow, I alone will bear all consequences.”

“Yes!” Upon receiving Spirit Emperor’s transmission, Gu Xingfeng immediately pursued.

No matter how strong Feng Wuchen is, he ultimately isn’t in Heavenly Deity Realm, Gu Xingfeng could kill him effortlessly.

Feng Wuchen had just left Ancient Wind City when Gu Xingfeng had already caught up.

“Heavenly Deity Realm!” Feng Wuchen, having sensed, his face abruptly changed, frowning, thinking: “Later-stage Heavenly Deity Realm, this aura is… Gu Xingfeng!”

“Wind Shadow, we meet again, do you still remember me, the reverend?” Gu Xingfeng’s cold and contemptuous voice sounded, followed by a flickering figure appearing.

“Even if you were to turn to ash, I’d recognize you!” Feng Wuchen spoke grimly, staring fiercely at Gu Xingfeng.

Nearly dying at Gu Xingfeng’s hands before, how could Feng Wuchen forget?

“The reverend orders your death! Prepare to die!” Gu Xingfeng said fiercely, suddenly charging towards Feng Wuchen.
