Chapter 451: The Butcher

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Luo Sanfeng was originally screaming, but at this moment, she couldn’t help but stop.

Although at this moment, Luo Sanfeng’s eyes were blinded by the two slaps from Chen Fei, her spiritual perception still existed.

Therefore, Luo Sanfeng immediately noticed that her husband’s breath had greatly diminished, a situation that could only result from a severe injury.

Clearly, he had just unleashed the Suspended Water Yin Yang Profound and Luo Sanfeng herself had practiced the Suspended Water Technique, so she naturally understood the kind of power this forbidden technique would possess when activated.

But now, Qiu Changtai had been severely injured by a single move. This shocked Luo Sanfeng and made her realize the current situation between the two of them.

She had initially been blaming Qiu Changtai for not saving her just now, but now she realized that it wasn’t that Qiu Changtai didn’t want to save her; it was that the person from the Primordial Sword Sect who had just appeared was too powerful.

So powerful that even as a pinnacle Aperture Tempering realm cultivator, Qiu Changtai couldn’t even withstand a single move from him.

Qiu Changtai struggled to raise his head, looking at Chen Fei with disbelief. The positive and negative elemental forces in his body had already been dispersed.

For the many years he had been a pinnacle Aperture Tempering realm cultivator, Qiu Changtai had rarely been injured, let alone suffered such a serious injury.

Not far away, the people from the Primordial Sword Sect and the Sunken Water Pavilion, upon seeing the current scene, let go of all their worries and couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The crisis had been easily resolved in this unexpected manner, far from what they had anticipated.

Qu Qingsheng had a few people who originally knew that Chen Fei had already reached the advanced Aperture Tempering realm in his cultivation. While they couldn’t quite fathom how Chen Fei had broken through to the pinnacle Aperture Tempering realm stage so quickly, at least they had some mental preparation.

But for others, in their eyes, Chen Fei had always been in the early Aperture Tempering realm, and it had only been a few years since he had advanced from the Visceral Tempering realm. Just a few years, and he had achieved this unimaginable progress, as if it were a dream.

“I surrender, I surrender!” Qiu Changtai looked at Chen Fei in front of him, clasping his hands together and shouting loudly.

Despite harboring resentment and being unable to imagine this turn of events, the current situation was clear. Qiu Changtai surrendered straightforwardly, knowing that as long as he survived, he could continue to plot revenge in the future or find other ways to achieve his goals.

“Yes, we surrender!” Luo Sanfeng, upon hearing her husband’s words, also shouted loudly. It was just a matter of surrendering, nothing too serious.

“I don’t accept it!” Chen Fei, listening to the words of Qiu Changtai and Luo Sanfeng, shook his head slightly and said calmly.

“If you have any demands, you can make them, and we will do our best to fulfill them!”

Qiu Changtai’s eyes widened involuntarily. He had thought that by surrendering, the other party would spare him. But now, looking at Chen Fei’s calm expression, his heart tightened even more.

“We are all members of the Thousand Feathers Alliance; you can’t kill us!” Luo Sanfeng shouted with a trembling voice.

“You trespassed into our sect and harmed our disciples. For that, you shall die!” ♦Clang!*

As Chen Fei’s words fell, the Qianyuan Sword emitted a sharp clang, striking toward Qiu Changtai’s neck.

If Chen Fei hadn’t returned in time, the situation here could have evolved in different ways. It’s possible that everyone could have been left with severe injuries, or it might have depended on Chen Fei’s intentions, whether he chose to kill more people as a warning to others.

In situations like this, where life and death hang in the balance, anything is possible.

“I’ve already surrendered, why are you forcing me!” Qiu Changtai, seeing Chen Fei take action, couldn’t contain the resentment hidden deep in his eyes. “I’ve already admitted defeat, why do you have to go this far? That’s just ruthless!”

The 108 aperture points within Qiu Changtai’s body suddenly trembled and contracted toward the chest area. When a pinnacle Aperture Tempering realm cultivator goes all out, it’s slightly different from cultivators in other Aperture Tempering realms. Other Aperture Tempering realm cultivators may at most shatter their aperture points to gain immense power during the process.

But for pinnacle Aperture Tempering realm cultivators, who are just a step away from Core Formation, they can forcibly merge their 108 aperture points. During this process, there is no real control, and the damage to the aperture points is inevitable. Therefore, this fusion is not a true breakthrough and cannot be completed in the end.

However, the brief merging of the 108 aperture points can indeed unleash unparalleled power.

Godslayer! Dream Entry!

Chen Fei sensed Qiu Changtai’s movement, and the spiritual consciousness in his sea of knowledge turned into a sharp blade, piercing straight into Qiu Changtai’s forehead.

At this moment, Qiu Changtai’s sea of knowledge was already boiling due to the forced merging of his aperture points. The Godslayer Sword only pierced a few points before it melted away.

However, the power of the Dream Entry Technique contained within the Godslayer Sword suddenly spread out. Qiu Changtai felt a momentary daze, and the pull on his aperture points went into a chaotic frenzy.

A pain as if his body were about to be torn apart suddenly filled Qiu Changtai’s mind, and he snapped back to his senses.

Forcibly merging aperture points was already fraught with danger, and this process was forcibly interrupted in an instant. Qiu Changtai found himself completely unable to control it.

Sensing the condition within his body, despair filled Qiu Changtai’s eyes.

He had originally intended to cause some trouble for Chen Fei before dying, and if he had the chance, he might have briefly broken through Chen Fei’s obstruction and gone on a rampage inside the hall, killing as many people as possible. If he could take a few lives, it would be a small satisfaction, and Chen Fei would surely suffer.

But now, he couldn’t even break through Chen Fei’s obstruction, let alone move. His aperture points had completely lost control, beyond his command.

* Swoosh!*

The Qianyuan Sword swept across Qiu Changtai’s neck, and Qiu Changtai’s head flew high, with an inexplicable look in his eyes. He had been hunting wild geese all his life, but in the end, he was pecked in the eye by a goose.

*Thud!*

Qiu Changtai’s body crashed to the ground, making a dull sound.

“You butcher, I’ll kill you!” Upon sensing Qiu Changtai’s death, Luo Sanfeng cried out in alarm and lunged at Chen Fei.

To them, killing and injuring others was a matter of course, but when others used the same methods against them, it suddenly turned into a massacre.

Many people operated with this mindset – what they did was right, while any harm others caused them was premeditated and malicious. Faced with such people, there was no reasoning, only action – kill!

* Swoosh!*

A black sword aura flashed, and Luo Sanfeng’s body stiffened, her voice abruptly silenced.

Throughout the entire ordeal, Chen Fei’s expression remained calm. Even when he had slain a pinnacle Aperture Tempering realm cultivator, he didn’t display any strong emotions.

The members of the Primordial Sword Sect looked at Chen Fei with bright eyes. It had been many years since the Primordial Sword Sect had produced a pinnacle Aperture Tempering realm cultivator. Since the great calamity the sect had faced in the past, the highest cultivation level within the sect had only reached the advanced Aperture Tempering realm, and they were considered relatively weaker among late Aperture Tempering realm cultivators.

As a result, the Primordial Sword Sect’s influence had declined significantly, becoming an ordinary sect with limited prestige.

But today, with a pinnacle Aperture Tempering realm cultivator here, they finally gained some confidence in this unfamiliar place, the Boundless Sea, and within the Thousand Feathers Alliance.

While a pinnacle Aperture Tempering realm cultivator might not be considered extraordinary within the entire Thousand Feathers Alliance, it held significant value in the remote and resource-scarce region of Primordial Water Island. Being at the pinnacle Aperture Tempering realm stage provided them with a strong shelter.

Moreover, considering Chen Fei’s current age, already reaching the pinnacle Aperture Tempering realm stage, it was reasonable to anticipate his future advancement to the Combined Aperture Tempering realm.

Some of the senior members of the Primordial Sword Sect had tears welling up in their eyes, and even Qu Qingsheng clenched his fists, finding it difficult to contain his emotions.

On the side, the Sunken Water Pavilion, while looking at Chen Fei, showed a hint of envy.

Envy was inevitable.

Chen Fei had once saved the Sunken Water Pavilion, which was one of the reasons why they had chosen to cooperate with the Primordial Sword Sect when they arrived in the Thousand Feathers Alliance, especially during the early stages of their integration.

Naturally, the Sunken Water Pavilion had also placed some bets on Chen Fei’s future, believing that he was destined for greatness, given his youth.

However, they had never expected that Chen Fei’s growth rate would be so astonishing. He had already reached the pinnacle Aperture Tempering realm stage, and today, he had even slain another pinnacle Aperture Tempering realm cultivator right before their eyes.

Such talent was something they had never encountered before.

Their bet on Chen Fei was likely going to pay off handsomely, and today’s cooperation with the Primordial Sword Sect had added even more value to it.

One day later, Chen Fei appeared on the island where the Xuanhe Palace was located. Compared to Primordial Water Island, this place was undoubtedly more bustling.

This time, Chen Fei wasn’t alone; he was accompanied by several senior members of the Primordial Sword Sect.

Wiping out an entire sect was a rare occurrence within the Thousand Feathers Alliance. However, this rarity referred to those actions done openly and boldly. If you were to accomplish such a task quietly and discreetly, hardly anyone would investigate it.

Sometimes, you wouldn’t even know who to look for to inquire about such matters.

Chen Fei hadn’t come here today to annihilate the entire Xuanhe Palace. Killing everyone from a sect would create too much commotion.

But Chen Fei couldn’t simply let the Xuanhe Palace off the hook either. There were valuable resources hidden within the Xuanhe Palace, and Chen Fei had no reason to let them go.

One hour later, Chen Fei and his companions left the island where the Xuanhe Palace was located. The boat was loaded with numerous crates, all containing the most valuable resources from the Xuanhe Palace.

Additionally, Chen Fei obtained the sect’s signature martial technique, the Suspended Water Technique.

There were some hiccups along the way, but everything was within Chen Fei’s control. When your strength reached a certain level, many forms of resistance could easily be subdued.

Especially within the Xuanhe Palace, the strongest member was only at the advanced Aperture Tempering realm, posing no real challenge to Chen Fei.

During the course of this one-hour operation, most of the time was spent on infiltration and interrogation.

Chen Fei obtained what he needed, killed some individuals, and ensured that there were no remains left behind. He destroyed all traces of their presence. Many people from the Xuanhe Palace didn’t even know what had happened to their sect during the recent events.

The second day brought chaos within the Xuanhe Palace, yet strangely, they couldn’t find a single clue, which was the most terrifying aspect of the situation for them.

A month later, news of a pinnacle Aperture Tempering realm cultivator on Primordial Water Island quietly spread among the neighboring factions and

sects..
