Chapter 564 - A Change of Circumstances

Wang Chen was indeed trying to stall for time. And he was not stalling for the Floating City.

Tian Yan opened his mouth again, “As for that governor of yours, don’t you know this saying? Distant water cannot quench a fire nearby.”

However, as soon as he finished saying those words…

“Are you sure about that?”

This was not said by Wang Chen. Of course, this was not from Zhao Xiang’s mouth too.

It was someone else.

Zhao Xiang felt a clench of despair after hearing that voice. His heart started to beat furiously as tremendous nausea started to overwhelm him. It felt as though he was falling straight into the bottomless abyss.

He quickly raised his head to check his surroundings. However, he saw no one around him.

“Who is it?!” Tian Yan too was surprised.

However, he could not sense anyone else nearby.

If this was not caused by an illusion, then this could only mean that his foe had stronger abilities in stealth than him.

As soon as he realized this, Tian Yan felt a shiver down his back as a swift palm approached him from behind.

Tian Yan was shocked as he turned around.

He saw an extremely young man inching closer with his palm, exerting extremely powerful force!

Qin Feng was already behind Wang Chen in split seconds right after striking Tian Yan to the air.

Splat!

Tian Yan got sent straight to the villa’s wall. The villa was constructed with special materials, thus it did not crumble after enduring such a powerful force. However, all the decorations and paintings on the walls fell to the floor.

“Argh!”

Tian Yan spitted out blood as he tried to stand up.

Qin Feng only used one percent of his internal energy. However, it was enough to injure Tian Yan.

“So, how’s the taste of that ‘distant water’, huh?”

Qin Feng’s voice floated into Tian Yan’s ears, like a whisper from the devil.

Struggling to stand still, Tian Yan tried to use his own internal energy to calm the boiling energies that were squalling in his organs. Cold sweat started to roll down on his forehead.

“Who… who are you?!” Tian Yan raised his head and asked.

Qin Feng rolled an eye at him. “Hey, I only struck your back. Not your head. Don’t tell me you’ve become a retard from that attack! Are you really sure you don’t know who I am?”

Tian Yan stared at Qin Feng’s overly young face… and then, he understood something.

“Qin Feng! You’re Qin Feng! But aren’t you…”

“Dead? Or stuck at the unknown dimension? Heh…” Qin Feng did not continue on with his words. His smirk was clear as day and it was quite easily understood what the situation they had on hand was though.

Perhaps trying to beg for forgiveness or scared so sh*tless that his legs felt weak, Zhao Xiang quickly kneeled on the floor.

“Boss… Boss! I’m sorry. I beg for your forgiveness! Please. I’ve done a lot for your organization, so please let me go! You have got to believe me. I was threatened by this man. I did not intend to betray you on purpose!” Zhao Xiang crawled to Qing Feng’s feet and begged like a dog.

However, Qin Feng did not seem moved by his words.

He raised his Verdant Emperor Saber and swiped lightly across Zhao Xiang’s neck.

He did not waste time talking to him. Qin Feng did not even waste his energy to look at the traitor.

If it were not for Qing Feng, Zhao Xiang would have died at Han Town. This guy had followed him and ascended to E3-tier in a year. Was that not enough for him?

If he worked harder, there could still be room for his power to keep on growing. Other than that, if Qing Feng had gotten more powerful personally, financially and politically, his followers would still have benefited from it anyway!

However, not many could remain firm and honest with their position. There would always be someone becoming envious and jealous of another anyway.

Zhao Xiang’s face froze as his head fell off from his neck and onto the floor. There was no blood spilt though—the open wound was cauterized by the blade’s fire.

After witnessing Qin Feng slaying Zhao Xiang in the blink of an eye, Tian Yan’s eyes shrank in astonishment.

He did not even give his underling any chance to defend himself. This man must be someone who had a heart made of stone, one that would not waver under any circumstances. This man had no weaknesses!

And that strike earlier… Tian Yan knew he could not win against Qin Feng. He was injured by a simple attack from him, there was no way for him to fight back now!

“Run… I must run!”

Tian Yan turned and ran without hesitation.

However, Qin Feng’s cold voice followed him like a ghost.

“Oh, come on now. You’re running now? Isn’t it a bit late to do that now? Besides… do you think you can come and go as you please in my turf?”

The anger in Qin Feng’s voice was very apparent.

Qin Feng did not say anything when he killed Zhao Xiang. However, he was quite pissed.

Even if Zhao Xiang was not satisfied with his position in Fengli, there was no way he would pull such a traitorous move if Tian Yan did not show up.

A young man who followed him from the beginning was now being lured to betray him. This was not just an issue in regards to his governance. This was personal to him.

And thus, it was unforgivable for him!

He did not even utilize his dragon style. All he did was use his powerful physical capabilities and he had already caught up to Tian Yan outside of the villa. Despite using all of his powers and getting away for about seven seconds, Qin Feng suddenly appeared next to him with tremendous force and momentum!

This time, Tian Yan had made his preparation and charged up his internal energy for defense. He was a C-tier, so he had a lot of internal energy in him.

However, these C-tier powers meant jack sh*t to Qin Feng’s attacks!

Posh!

His internal energy shield was crushed in just one strike!

Qin Feng then hurled a kick on Tian Yan’s thigh.

“Arggh!!”

When Tian Yan entered Wang Chen’s villa earlier on, he had sealed the dimension in the area using his internal energy so that noises would not spread out to the outside. Right now, he did not care to do preparations like those anymore.

Tian Yan’s loud, excruciating cry woke up the residents in the higher levels of Fengli City.

In mere minutes, countless people rushed out from their villas to find out what was happening.

Yet, when they saw what was happening, they all stopped and watched in awe and excitement.

Qin Feng—the one who literally owned Fengli City and Organization was now back!

Booom!

As another attack landed, both of Tian Yan’s legs were now completely crushed.

“Arghhhhhhhh!!”

Tian Yan’s internal energy flooded out from his body as he unleashed every power and martial art that he knew in a last ditch attempt to save himself.

However, to Qin Feng, these “powers” and “martial arts” were nothing but a joke.

“Weak. Weak!! How dare someone as weak as you come and make a mess in my turf?! In my Fengli City?!”

As Qin Feng said sternly, he struck out another two kicks and crushed Tian Ya’s limbs. Now, the man could not move ever again.

Right now, all that Tian Yan felt was fear.

It felt as though Qin Feng was literally the incarnation of the devil himself. When he was locked on by this devil, there was no hope of fleeing away.

“President Qin… Look, it’s all just a misunderstanding. Misunderstanding!”

“Ha!”

Qin Feng let out a dry laugh.

“Misunderstanding? So, you’re saying that because of a misunderstanding you came to Fengli City and killed over a dozen men? And not only that, you also stepped on one of my city’s higher-ups, all because of a misunderstanding?”

Qin Feng raised his foot and aimed it at the man’s chest.

If he stepped onto his chest right now, Tian Yan would definitely die a horrible death.
