Everlasting Chapter 484: Spiritual Tree Attacks (1/2)
“Sword Hall.” Needless to say, Chen Feng recognized the cultivator's background.
Next up, the cultivators there began revealing their stances. Generally speaking, they would only make two choices. The first choice was to be neutral. The second choice was to stand beside Mo Hong. Of course, the majority of them chose to stand beside Mo Hong.
Soon enough, only two remained. Liu Shaolong and Bai Yunyan. Chen Feng himself was curious to see what they would do.
“Junior Brother Liu, what are you s.p.a.cing out for?” a cultivator standing beside Mo Hong said.
Liu Shaolong smiled at him. Then, he turned to look at Chen Feng, an apologetic smile on his face before turning to move towards Mo Hong's group.
“Everyone, you made the right choice. Junior Sister Bai, are you still not coming over?” Mo Hong turned towards Bai Yunyan and said.
“Sorry, I am here to search for treasures, not to fight a b.l.o.o.d.y battle,” Bai Yunyan said coolly before walking to the side. She had decided to stay neutral.
“I am sorry, Chen Feng. This is my only option.” Bai Yunyan sent a secret vocal transmission to Chen Feng.
Chen Feng smiled, not answering. In his opinion, it was only normal for Bai Yunyan to do so. In her shoes, he would have done the same thing. Rather, he might even stand on Transcendent Firmaments Palace's side.
As for Liu Shaolong, Chen Feng believed that he did nothing wrong. Even so, Chen Feng would still not let him off. Why? Because Chen Feng found him to be an eyesore.
“Ha ha ha! There are only three of you while there are 23 of us. How do you plan on fighting us? You can't even escape now!” Mo Hong laughed loudly.
Mu Qingfeng and Zhang Xuanjin's faces turned grim. In a three-on-three fight, or even all the way up to a three-on-six fight, the two of them would not feel worried. At that moment, however, there were so many people on the opposing side. Not to mention, the cultivation bases of the opposing cultivators were in no way inferior to their own cultivation bases. Thus, Mu Qingfeng and Zhang Xuanjin felt very worried.
“I didn't think that Sword Hall, Jade Talisman Sect and Skypond Faction would collude together with Transcendent Firmaments Palace to commit a nefarious deed. Do not forget, even if you finish us off, you fellows will not be able to get anything good,” Zhang Xuanjin said coldly.
“There is no need for you fellows to worry about that,” the cultivator from Skypond Faction retorted.
“Junior Brother Chen, do not try to fight them head on. Later on, we'll find an opportunity to charge out!”
“It will be very difficult to charge out. I think we might as well charge towards the spiritual tree. Maybe something unexpected would happen.” Mu Qingfeng and Zhang Xuanjin were secretly communicating with one another.
Comparison wise, there was a calm expression on Chen Feng's face. He appeared completely unperturbed at the current crisis. Seeing his ability to remain calm, Mu Qingfeng and Zhang Xuanjin felt admiration towards him They thought to themselves, No wonder Junior Brother Chen could remain safe despite getting pursued by Nine Firmaments Palace for so long. His ability to remain calm like this is something that no ordinary people could possess.
It was true. Chen Feng wasn't worried. Rather, if the two of them were to find out what was on Chen Feng's mind, they would probably grow even more shocked. He was wondering if he should continue to wait and observe for any changes or if he should just bring out the Longevity Tower and smash the other cultivators to their deaths before figuring a way to collect the Domain Tree.
“Ha ha ha ha! This place looks lively!” A loud laughter rang out and more people arrived. There was a total of three cultivators. The moment they arrived, they blocked the path of retreat for Chen Feng's group.
“Not good! They are from Nine Firmaments Palaces.” Mu Qingfeng and Zhang Xuanjin's faces grew extremely ugly to behold. They thought to themselves: This is very bad!
“Chen Feng, ha ha ha! This really is a meeting between enemies on a narrow road!” One of them saw Chen Feng and chuckled, a look of amus.e.m.e.nt in his eyes. Although they had the upper hand, they were in no hurry to attack. Instead, it would appear that they wanted to toy with Chen Feng's group.
“It has nothing to do with narrow roads. You fellows just have a death wish,” Chen Feng said smilingly.
“Although there are quite a few who chose to remain neutral, most of them chose to stand against us. Additionally, many of them are from the other great sects. Is this because Extreme Celestial Sect is too weak? Or is this all because of me?” Chen Feng secretly conversed with Mu Qingfeng and Zhang Xuanjin.
“Junior Brother Chen is not to be blamed for this. It is just that our Extreme Celestial Sect is too weak,” Mu Qingfeng replied with a sigh.
“It is not that. The main issue here is that the three Palaces are too strong. They are practically the overlords in the Northern Plains. The other sects can't wait to ingratiate themselves to them. Naturally, they wouldn't dare offend the three sects. In truth, many disciples in our sect highly admires Junior Brother Chen for killing so many disciples from the three sects,” Zhang Xuanjin said in a hushed tone.
“Senior brothers, don't worry. Nothing will happen to us today.” Chen Feng smiled.
Hearing Chen Feng's words, the two of them felt their hearts skip a beat. Chen Feng had become a target of pursuit for so long, and yet he had continued to remain safe. If so, he must possess certain means to protect himself. Additionally, the two of them had heard that Chen Feng also possessed a Sacred artefact. If Chen Feng could bring out a Sacred artefact, then it might turn their situation around. Thinking about that, the two of them revealed a somewhat hopeful look.
