Chapter 1381 - A Test of Strength!

Hong Feiyu faced Su Yi and bowed elegantly. When everyone saw this, they couldn’t help but sigh to themselves.

In the modern era, perhaps only Su Yi, the man who controlled the power of reincarnation, could receive such a show of respect from the Hong Family’s Little Demon God.

Su Yi took a sip of wine. “You’re here to make trouble, so why feign politeness?”

“Trouble?” Hong Feiyu laughed. “When I left, my seniors commandedto be polite and not to cause an incident. Please don’t misunderstand, Fellow Daoist.”

He waved his jade fan, and the thin, white-haired old man accompanying him immediately took out a bronze box, which he opened for all to see.

Treasure light surged out of its interior, so dazzling that it stung the eyes. Its colors reflected on the nearby skies, making them light up.

The crowd couldn’t help but be curious. All of them looked over. Inside the box, they saw a pile of wondrous and precious treasures. All of them flowed with colorful light, and all were rare and precious. It was obvious at a glance that none were ordinary!

Hong Feiyu chuckled and said, “This is our first meeting, Fellow Daoist Su, so I selected a few modest gifts. Please take them as a token of my sincerity and accept them with a smile.”

The crowd couldn’t help but gasp. They would never have guessed that this tyrannical hoodlum of the Hong Family would go to such lengths. This was their first meeting, yet he was giving Su Yi such a generous gift!

Sof the older-generation cultivators had strange looks on their faces. Hong Feiyu’s manners are on point. Given the circumstances, what will Su Yi decide?

But Su Yi didn’t so much as glance at the treasure box. He just said with waning interest, “If you’re not here to make trouble, leave as soon as possible. Don’t get in the way.”

“....”

The crowd was at a loss for words.

Hong Feiyu was stunned too. It seemed he dared not believe Su Yi would be so direct. One wrong word, and he was already kicking them out.

The thin old man accompanying Hong Feiyu snorted coldly. “Young man, our young leader has treated you with courtesy and respect. Don’t you think your attitude... is a bit over the line?”

How could Su Yi possibly concern himself with such a threat? He directly ignored it.

Sword Immortal Qingshi laughed coldly. “Have a look around. Every fellow Daoist here has already agreed to assist Fellow Daoist Su, while you’ve shown up uninvited. Don’t tellyou plan to refuse to leave?”

This question wasn’t at all polite, and the atmosphere was instantly tense.

Hong Feiyu couldn’t help but laugh. He looked at Su Yi and said, “Fellow Daoist Su, didn’t you put on such a grand showing because you wanted to improve your relationship with the world’s ancient orthodoxies? If you want to smooth things over, why refuse me?”

His sharp, dark blue eyes swept across everyone else present with feigned indifference. “Don’t tellthat in your eyes, our Hong Family is inferior to even factions like these?”

His voice had grown colder and more imposing. At that moment, Hong Feiyu’s typical tyrannical disposition finally revealed itself.

Murderous intent filled heaven and earth. The mountains and rivers fell silent.

The crowd’s hearts tensed.

Before Su Yi could respond, Hong Feiyu said seriously, “Giveface. Take it as making a new friend. How about it?”

He looked around the surroundings once more. “I dare say with certainty that even if you help these fellow Daoists of ancient orthodoxies, they won’t necessarily cto your aid if you run into trouble!”

The crowd fell silent, their expressions shifting and uncertain. Sof those who’d already received Su Yi’s help breaking their curses were too ashamed to raise their heads and meet Su Yi’s gaze.

All of this only further highlighted Hong Feiyu’s prestige!

Su Yi laughed, not at all concerned. “You’re wrong. I didn’t help them to make them risk their lives for me.”

Hong Feiyu smiled. “That doesn’t matter. I’ll just ask you this. Will you giveface or not?”

His tone was outwardly casual, but in truth, he was being as forceful and tyrannical as could be.

“Hong Feiyu, don’t you think you’re pushing this too far?” Li Zhong said gravely.

Hong Feiyu cleaned out his ears, raised his jade fan, and pointed at Li Zhong. “Old man, don’t think you can behave impudently in front ofjust because you’ve got Mo Qingchou behind you. One more word out of turn, and I’ll kill you!”

Li Zhong’s expression shifted, his gaze suddenly full of uncertainty.

Hong Feiyu returned his attention to Su Yi. “I’ll speak directly. If you help me, I’ll be happy to grant you my protection! Going forward, if anyone dares view you with enmity, they’ll becmy enemies too!”

He spoke with firm conviction. This made the atmosphere all the tenser. Everyone was as silent as a cicada in winter.

From this, it was obvious how terrifying the Hong Family’s reputation was. It was to the point that none of the experts of these ten-plus orthodoxies dared get involved!

Sword Immortal Qingshi and the Universal Emptiness Sword Buddha's expressions darkened.

But just as they were about to say anything, Su Yi waved. “All you two need to do now is stand back and watch. Leave everything to me.”

“That’s indeed how it should be,” said Hong Feiyu with a burst of applause. “This is a conversation between the two of us. Who else could possibly be qualified to interject? Those who interrupt don’t know their place. They’re seeking out their own deaths!”

These words were obviously intended as a warning for Sword Immortal Qingshi and the Universal Emptiness Sword Buddha!

Both couldn’t help but be furious, and their gazes frosted over. This Hong Feiyu really is unbridled and tyrannical!

“Are you done talking?” Su Yi took a sip of wine and asked.

Hong Feiyu thought for a moment, then said, “I brought several friends from other factions with me. See? They’re standing right behind me. I’ll have to trouble you to break their curses too.”

The old-timers standing behind him all hailed from factions hostile to Su Yi. They were now staring at him, their gazes rife with mockery.

“I’ll have to trouble you, Fellow Daoist Su!” A gray-robed elder with white hair and youthful features smiled and clasped his fist.

“The wise know how to adapt to their circumstances. Fellow Daoist Su doesn’t strikeas the foolish sort. He surely knows what needs to be done,” a beautiful woman in a red dress said with a charming smile.

When the crowd saw this, they couldn’t help but sigh to themselves. Indeed, Hong Feiyu is here to make trouble!

Su Yi was just about to say something when Zhong Wanli smiled and said, “Temple Master, you once proclaimed that within half a year, you’d wipe the Zhong Family from the face of the earth. I suggest you take those words back, as the Zhong Family has already formed an alliance with Young Lord Hong!”

His face was nothing but smiles.

When Su Yi saw this, he couldn’t help but laugh. He looked at Hong Feiyu and said, “Might I ask you a question?”

Hong Feiyu laughed heartily. “Go right ahead.”

“Did someone else put you up to this?” asked Su Yi.

“Why do you ask?” Hong Feiyu was a bit confused.

“Simple,” said Su Yi. “I still cannot fathom why people would throw their lives away like this.”

“....” Hong Feiyu’s smile stiffened, then faded. His deep blue eyes shone with imposing light.

But after a moment’s silence, he smiled again. “My seniors toldto be polite, and that I was not to force you even if you refused my good intentions. Very well. Let’s let this end here.”

With that, he turned and was just about to leave. “Uncle Song, take the gifts back. We’re going home.”

He started leading his companions away. The sight left the onlookers completely dumbstruck. They cin such numbers, and they were so pushy just moments ago. Now, the blink of an eye later, they’ve turned to leave?

What's going on?

Did the glorious Little Demon God of the Hong Family suddenly get a new personality? Has he learned tolerance and when to back down?

Sword Immortal Qingshi and the Universal Emptiness Sword Buddha were unwittingly stunned. Neither would have guessed that Hong Feiyu would simply choose to leave.

“Stop right there,” said Su Yi. His brow furrowed.

A batch of whetstones had delivered itself to his door, only to suddenly turn around and leave. Su Yi was a bit unwilling to see them go.

“Do you still have business with us, Fellow Daoist Su?” Hong Feiyu stopped and turned to look at him. His face was nothing but smiles. There was no trace of his earlier unbridled hooliganism.

“You arrived uninvited, and now you think you can just leave,” Su Yi said flatly. “What do you takeand my territory for?”

The crowd clucked their tongues in befuddlement. Hong Feiyu and his companions were about to swallow their indignation and leave without a confrontation. Who could have imagined that Su Yi wouldn’t let them off?

What was even going on?

Hong Feiyu was stunned too. His smile disappeared, and he said, “Does that mean you plan to hold us accountable?”

His companions’ expressions darkened too.

Su Yi threw back his head, drained his jug of wine, and said, “I plan to do exactly that.”

The atmosphere was instantly tense once more.

“Su Yi, don’t take this too far! Our young leader has already been more than tolerant enough. He gave you face, but you took an inch and demanded a mile. You’re playing with fire, so be careful not to burn yourself!” rebuked that thin, white-haired elder.

Su Yi laughed, took a step toward them, and said, “If I’m playing with fire, then you’re all moths to the flame.”

The crowd’s scalps went numb. This isn’t just forceful. He’s tyrannical down to his very bones! He even dares disregard the Hong Family’s prestige!

Hong Feiyu rubbed his cheeks and sighed. “Had I known it would end like this, why would I have feigned such politeness? It’s my seniors' fault for tellingto keep a low profile and use my manners. Look at what’s happened! People are suddenly trying to walk all over me!”

As he spoke, his aura suddenly transformed.

Boom!

His jade-colored robes billowed around him. Ferocious murderous intent filled the air, spreading out around him. Countless onlookers paled.

And Hong Feiyu’s handsface was now utterly vicious. He smiled and said, “Everyone, how about we play with our friend here?”

Although he was smiling, it was a chilling sight, enough to make one tremble.

“Certainly!” The Cloud Soaring Realm old monsters accompanying him were all too happy to agree.

Murderous intent surged throughout heaven and earth. The mountains and rivers trembled. As the crowd realized that this didn’t bode well, they hurriedly moved further away.

Li Zhong was sweating on Su Yi’s behalf. He smiled bitterly; he would never have guessed that Su Yi would insist on pursuing this.

But when he thought about it, Hong Feiyu’s behavior really was overly tyrannical. Given Su Yi’s disposition, how could he possibly let them just cand go as they pleased?

Meanwhile, Su Yi was already just a few hundred feet away. He continued his approach, his gait unhurried.

His presence was entirely calm and unassuming.

It was then that the thin white-haired old man stepped forth and shot toward Su Yi, quick as lightning.

“Young Leader, please wait. Allowto test the boy’s strength!”
