Chapter 176: Friend or Foe? (1/2)
Chapter 176 : Friend or Foe?
Feng Feiyun’s eyebrows rose as he couldn’t help but laugh: “Of course I don’t believe you. I have seen Young Noble Flawless before. This person, regarding both talents and mind, is countless of times beyond ordinary people. Even a Ju Qing would not be able to force him to bend down. As for Beiming Tang... Even though he is not as sophisticated as Young Noble Flawless, he is also very stubborn. I almost killed him before, but I still wasn’t able to force him to submit.”
“Young Noble Flawless would not kneel to anyone, and Beiming Tang also would not hand his clan’s scripture to anyone, let alone implore you to take it!”
The darkness and the river were connected, adding to this serene scene.
A flame was floating above the river like a blood-red lotus. This aura was both spiritual and ethereal.
“You ought to believe me. In this world, force is not the only thing that can make men submit!” The hoarse voice slowly spoke.
Feng Feiyun stared straight ahead and pondered for a moment before answering: “Indeed, force is not the only thing that can force men to submit. There could be something that could shatter their self-esteem and stout back.”
“A hero still cannot defeat a beauty’s trial!” The person in the flame laughed raucously with a great deal of arrogance.
“But you are not a beauty!” Feng Feiyun was also a hero who had failed this trial before; otherwise, he would not have died in the hands of a woman.
Hundreds of tender sentiments around a beauty’s bed.Even heroes have a weakness for the charms of such a nest.
The greatest enemies of men were “life and death”, “himself”, and “beauties.”
If a man could defeat any of these three, then they would have unlimited potential and could even become immortals or saints, however…
Since the start of time, very few men were able to defeat any of them.
“How do you know that I’m not a beauty?” The burning flame became even more crimson like a sun floating above the water.
Its raucous laugh sounded like an old man’s.
Feng Feiyun also laughed and said: “Once I catch you, I would surely be able to find out who you are.”
“Swish!”
This time, Feng Feiyun utilized his entire movement shifting skill. His body was like an arrow leaving a bow, causing the river’s surface to be spread apart into a line, creating an endless amount of white bubbles.
Feng Feiyun’s speed was beyond the speed of sound. In just a blink of an eye, he traversed several hundred meters. However, the speed of the flame was even faster. With a swift flash, it appeared more than a hundred meters behind Feng Feiyun.
This speed could only be described as terrifying. Not to mention, its trajectory was filled with twists and turns. This type of spatial swing was not something that ordinary cultivators could perform.
“Swish!”
Feng Feiyun stabilized his motion as a light emanated from his feet. Then, he stomped on the water’s surface.
During the heat of the moment, the two had exchanged positions.
“Ah! I told you earlier, we are friends, not enemies. Brother Feng, why do you keep on forcing the issue?” The person in the flame lamented with a sigh.
Feng Feiyun smiled and said: “In these times, everyone in the world can be considered my enemies. I am without a single true friend. What can you do to make me believe you?”
“I am willing to be Brother Feng’s first friend!”
Feng Feiyun replied: “There must be a reason for wanting to become friends?”
“In the future, I’m going to partake in a grand matter, and I will need your help in order to be successful. If we become friends now, then it would be easier to ask you for assistance later, correct?” A laugh came from the flame.
