Chapter 83: Sudden Attack

Yun Lintian always wondered why all those young masters in the novels were stupid, waiting for the protagonist to face slapping them. However, as time passed by, he slowly understood the reason behind this.

In the cultivation-oriented world, everyone was limited to one way. Unless you didn't have a qualification to practice, whether you were a chef or a tailor, in the end, the profound way was your everything.

However, the majority of people didn't seem to realize that individual strength was the most important thing. Taking Feng Yi as an example. Instead of strengthening himself, he relied on his background to suppress others. Time after time, he became addicted to the taste of being above others and subconsciously thought this was the way to go. Why would he need to practice further when he could cover the entire town with one palm using his background alone?

Feng Yi was gradually blinded by this idea and became more arrogant. He was blindly confident everything was always in his hands, but the truth wasn't. That was why he had underestimated Yun Lintian greatly.

Those young masters in the novels were the same. They thought with their strong background, handling the protagonist was as easy as breathing. Thus, they kept underestimating the protagonist and let the protagonist became stronger by sending their weak lackeys to hunt him down. In the end, those lackeys had become the protagonist's tools for practice and even gave him free resources.

Hearing Yun Lintian's remark, Feng Yi came back to his sense and quickly said, "What do you mean by doing this to me, Brother Ye? We're not an enemy, aren't we?"

Yun Lintian smiled playfully and responded, "Yes. We're not an enemy. But why did you try to run earlier? Could it be, you want to go toilet?"

Cold sweat appeared on Feng Yi's forehead. He knew this time he had kicked an iron plate. The bastard he regarded as an idiot had toyed with him for all this time. It turned out the real idiot was himself.

Even though Feng Yi knew it had a low chance of success, he still wanted to try and continued his act further. "You're misunderstanding me, Young Master Ye." He looked at Yun Huanxin and said, "I thought she's an assassin who came to kill me. That's why I tried to run earlier… Since she is Brother Ye's acquaintance, I can feel at ease now."

Yun Lintian chuckled and said, "Nice try." His eyes turned sharp as he stared into Feng Yi's eyes. "Do you really think I will believe this nonsense of yours?"

Feng Yi put a confused expression on and asked, "What are you talking about, Brother Ye? Of course, you can believe me. Why would I lie to you?"

Yun Lintian shook his head and said, "Let's end this boring nonsense. Why don't you tell me your conspiracy with the Wang clan?"

Feng Yi's pupils shrank slightly. Just as he'd expected. Yun Lintian did know he had colluded with the Wang clan. But how could he admit readily?

"What are you talking, Brother Ye? The Wang clan and I are enemies. How could I be together with them? Aren't you a bit too much?" Feng Yi growled, appearing as though he was suffered injustice.

"Alright, since that's the case. I don't want to know anymore." Yun Lintian said and signaled Yun Huanxin to kill Feng Yi.

Perceiving a murderous intent, Feng Yi felt as if he had been thrown into an ice cave. His face was pale, void of blood. He hurriedly pleaded, "I say! I will say it! Don't kill me!"

Yun Lintian shrugged, "Tell me then."

Just as Feng Yi was about to say something, Yun Huanxin perceived danger and quickly shielded Yun Lintian and Yun Qianxue with her profound energy barrier.

Bang!

All of a sudden, Feng Yi's body burst out with a powerful force, and he was directly shredded into pieces along with the courtyard. The powerful force instantly collided with Yun Huanxin's barrier, causing cracks to appear on it. However, Yun Huanxin managed to resist it until the end.

Under the courtyard's debris, Yun Lintian's face was ghastly pale. The sudden turn was too fast before he could put up any defense. If Yun Huanxin was not here, he and Yun Qianxue would be blasted into smithereens by now.

"What the hell is this?" Yun Lintian spoke in shock.

Yun Huanxin's brows knitted together. This was the first time she encountered something like this. From the earlier impact, she could perceive the force was at least on the Ruler Profound Realm's level, but it was limited to the early level. Otherwise, she won't be able to repel it.

"This is not the time to think about it. We should go now." Yun Qianxue reminded. A huge commotion like this would definitely alarm everyone within the town.

Yun Lintian's gaze swept over Feng Yi's earlier position and found nothing. He then let Yun Huanxin brought him and Yun Qianxue away.

A moment later, Feng Qi arrived at the scene with several of his guards. He looked at the courtyard's remains and frowned. "What's going on here?"

The guards glanced at each other, did not know how to answer. From the look of it, whoever within this courtyard undoubtedly had been reduced to nothingness by now.

"Master, isn't this courtyard belong to Young Master Ye?" One of the guards said.

Feng Qi frowned deeply for a while before his expression abruptly changed. He roared at the guards. "Go check your Young Master's courtyard now!"

The guards were startled by Feng Qi's roar and were able to react in the next second.

Feng Qi rushed toward Feng Yi's courtyard anxiously. He prayed in his heart Feng Yi must be there. However, when he arrived at the courtyard, not a shadow of Feng Yi could be seen.

Feng Qi was petrified on the spot. At this moment, he knew in his heart, his son had definitely resided within Yun Lintian's courtyard earlier.

"No… this is not true." Feng Qi stagnated and almost fell onto the ground if it wasn't because of the guard's support.

"M-master?" The guard asked uncertainly.

Feng Qi snapped back to his sense and yelled out, "Hurry up! Activate the formation!"
