Chapter 787 Scheme (1/2)

“Yes, thank you for the essence of the ocean.”

“You’re welcome. Truthfully, it’s just a cup of wine.” Chen Feng shook his head. Next, he waved his hand and two jade bottles flew towards the Human Immortals.

“This is?”

“Inside each bottle are 10 droplets of Dawnsource Crystal Water. You two have been taking care of me for the past few days. This is just a small gift to show my token of appreciation. I hope that the two of you will accept it,” Chen Feng said smilingly.

“Err.”

“Ha ha ha! Island Lord Chen, don’t mention it.”

The two Human Immortals only hesitated for a moment before carefully keeping the jade bottles. That was a good item. There was no reason for the two of them to reject the jade bottles.

After accepting the jade bottles from Chen Feng, the two Human Immortals grew more friendly towards Chen Feng. They even started talking about things that they were not supposed to talk about. That was exactly what Chen Feng wanted.

Following that, Chen Feng continued staying in Void City. He would spend all his time either in cultivation or strolling around. He never mentioned Ye Ziming’s name again.

Later, Chen Feng also participated in several more auctions. Again, Chen Feng put on that same display of arrogance, deliberately revealing that he possessed many good items on his person. Naturally, the two Human Immortals who accompanied him also managed to obtain some benefits.

Due to that, the two Human Immortals grew pleased. Thanks to the items they obtained from Chen Feng, they would be able to break through to the next level. Thus, their attitudes towards Chen Feng grew from friendliness to respect and flattery.

On this particular day, Chen Feng was headed out once more. This time, Chen Feng had requested the two Human Immortals from the Xu Family to not accompany him. Since they had received so many benefits from Chen Feng, agreeing to this request was nothing.

Naturally, even though the two Human Immortals were not accompanying him, there were still others from the Xu Family secretly monitoring him. However, Chen Feng put on a façade of ignorance. After strolling around Void City, he then headed outside the city.

After leaving the city, Chen Feng moved leisurely. Leading the group of ocean yao guards, he looked like the young master of a great family out for a spring outing.

Not long after Chen Feng left Void City, some cultivators came for Chen Feng.

Two Human Immortals descended from the sky to appear before Chen Feng.

“Fellow friend, someone wants to meet you.” One of them cupped his fists and bowed in a saluting gesture. He appeared quite respectful towards Chen Feng.

“Who wants to meet me?” Chen Feng rolled his eyes and asked with a disdainful tone.

“You’ll find out once you get there.”

The ocean yao guards strictly enforced Chen Feng’s instructions and they swarmed forward to viciously beat up the two Human Immortals. It did not take long before the two Human Immortals were forced to run away, coughing blood as they did. The only reason they could leave was because Chen Feng had deliberately allowed them to live. Given the eight ocean yao guards on his side, killing off the two Human Immortals was simply too easy.

As expected, they are no longer capable of holding back. Hopefully, more Human Immortals would come. It would be even better if Earthen Immortals come, Chen Feng thought as he continued moving forward.

The cultivators from the Xu Family had been constantly on Chen Feng’s tail. Naturally, Chen Feng was aware of that. Rather, he was not only aware of the existence of the cultivators from the Xu Family. He could even sense the cultivators who were waiting in ambush up ahead.

There are quite a number of them. Not to mention, they even set up some magic arrays. Looks like they poured in quite the effort to deal with me. Chen Feng smiled. By borrowing the power of his Dao artefact, he was able to see the positioning of the cultivators and what they had set up.

Chuckling, Chen Feng then sped up, leading his ocean yao guards with him as he deliberately walked into the ambush.

Boom!

The magic array activated and layer after layer of restrictive arrays moved forward to encase Chen Feng. Not even a Void Jump Talisman would be able to help him out from the magic array.

“Ha ha ha ha ha! This fellow is truly an idiot! To think that he could so easily fall into the trap!” A loud laughter made its way into Chen Feng’s ears.

The voice sounded very familiar to Chen Feng. He had heard the voice before in the auction house.

Without any word from Chen Feng, the eight ocean yao guards had already begun attacking the restrictive arrays encasing them.

“It’s useless. We brothers had spent a great fortune to obtain this magic array. Even a high-level Human Immortal can forget about escaping from it, let alone a starter-level Human Immortal like you. If you obediently turn yourself over now, you can preserve your life.”

“Is that so? If I am not mistaken, you fellows should be the cultivators from the auction house. What is this? Are you fellows doing this for the sake of the Dawnsource Crystal Water in my possession?” Chen Feng said smilingly, unconcerned about the current situation.

“Ha ha ha ha! It’s not just the Dawnsource Crystal Water. Kid, everything you have on you is now ours!”

“That’s right. I heard that you also have other good items like essence of the ocean. Although I do not know what kind of background you have, encountering us means you’re a dead man. If you want to blame someone, you can only blame yourself for being too conceited.”

“Are you fellows not afraid of my backer?” Chen Feng asked again.

“No need to talk about things that hold no weight. No matter how powerful your backer may be, it is useless. Because you will be dying right now.”

“Are you fellows so confident in your ability to kill me?” The smile on Chen Feng’s face grew wider and a bloody light began shining out from his palm.

“You think you can still escape? With those eight ocean yaos? Dream on!”

“Ha ha ha ha ha ha!”

“This guy is too arrogant.”

The cultivators who were hiding in the dark shot out ridiculing words. In their opinion, there was no longer any way for Chen Feng to escape.

“Since I have so many good items on me, don’t you fellows think I would have a powerful magic treasure for protection?” After saying that, the Blood Mustering Bead abruptly flew out from Chen Feng’s hand to transform into a massive ball of blood. With a shake, it caused cracks to spread out across space. Next, bloody light shone out in a dazzling manner and the stretch of space there turned bloody.

Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!

A series of thunderous, explosive sounds rang out and all the restrictive arrays encasing Chen Feng and the ocean yao guards were shattered. Seeing that, the faces of the cultivators who were hiding in the dark sank sharply. Knowing that the tables had turned on them, the first thought to come to their minds was to run.
