Chapter 1002: Chapter 1026: Murder in Hanjiang City (Part 1)
After witnessing the light emanating from the Jade Token in the man’s hand, Chu Linfeng laughed and said: "Heh, you actually notified the people from the City Lord’s Mansion. It seems you’re just Hanjiang City Lord’s lackey, so you’re no good either."
The man in elegant clothes appeared to be at the Early-stage Golden Immortal level of strength and Chu Linfeng didn’t take such people seriously. However, Chu Linfeng’s words made the man’s face lose some luster. "Kidd, don’t be smug. Soon you’ll realize the consequences of causing trouble in Hanjiang City. You’ll soon know how you’re going to die," he said.
"Is that so? But I’m planning to slay you before the City Lord’s Mansion people arrive. Who do you think you are to meddle in my affairs? Even a lackey dares to shout in front of me," Chu Linfeng retorted angrily.
"You may lack the strength to kill me. Remember, within Emperor Wu’s Spirit Realm, people aren’t allowed to fight in the city—if violations occur, they face a pursuit by everyone in the Spirit Realm. This is a decree by Emperor Wu Immortal Emperor. Do you think you have the qualification to kill me? You’ve already committed a capital crime by killing someone at the city gate. If I were you, I’d escape early. But here you are, boasting ignorantly without even considering what you are," the man in elegant clothing said confidently.
"Very well, you speak excellently. For that comment alone, you can die a hundred times. Emperor Wu Immortal Emperor’s rules don’t apply to me. I want to kill and no one can govern me—not even an Immortal Emperor," Chu Linfeng spoke, and then the overwhelming murderous aura from him surged toward the man.
Initially, the man only considered Chu Linfeng’s strength might be at the Late-stage Celestial Immortal realm, as he was too young to have reached a high level even if he started cultivating in the womb. Thus, he dared to speak up since he was merely a peripheral steward of Hanjiang City, equivalent to a guard of the City Lord’s Mansion.
But now, Chu Linfeng’s murderous aura was immense, making him feel the suffocating presence of a true master. Sweat poured like rain from his body as he gazed at Chu Linfeng in horror and asked, "Who exactly are you? Hanjiang City doesn’t have someone like you."
"You’re not qualified to know. Little old me doesn’t view Hanjiang City as anything significant. Now is the time to end your life," Chu Linfeng laughed, acting like killing someone was merely a trivial matter.
At this moment, the man swiftly took out a black, bowl-like object from his Storage Ring and held it in his hand saying: "Want to kill me? Let’s see how much power you have."
As soon as the words left his mouth, his entire figure flickered and flew into the sky, while Chu Linfeng glanced at him for a moment, disappearing from his original position and appearing before the man, astonishing the surrounding spectators with his strength.
"Who is this young man? Doesn’t seem like he’s from Hanjiang City. His strength is so formidable, he’s likely reached the Late Golden Immortal stage at such a young age—it’s indeed rare!" said one person in the crowd.
"So what if he’s a genius? He’s too impulsive. The outcome of causing trouble in Hanjiang City is death—it’s just heaven envying talent!" echoed another.
"Perhaps this young man is from a family in the Domain, even the Hanjiang City Lord would bow down if met him. I’m sure he won’t be in trouble; otherwise, he wouldn’t dare to kill at the city gate. A strong person, yet young, cannot be a fool. He’s already thought it through long ago. Let’s just enjoy this rare spectacle!"
Discussion surged through the crowd, and soon word spread across Hanjiang City that Chu Linfeng was causing a disturbance at the city gate, defying Hanjiang City, which drew more people toward the gate, and even a few strong individuals from the City Lord’s Mansion quickly approached.
Chu Linfeng looked at the bowl-like object in the man’s hand and laughed: "Even if you’re hungry, you don’t need to carry a bowl with you at all times. I have nothing to spare for you. An Early-stage Golden Immortal dares to act arrogantly in front of me."
The man said at this moment: "Today you’ll get to see Master’s Flowing Gold Bowl and know my prowess." As soon as he finished speaking, the black bowl flew from his hand toward Chu Linfeng.
Chu Linfeng was very curious about the Immortal Realm’s magical treasures; he didn’t move. With his current Second Layer Earth Transformation defense power, he was not afraid of a Golden Immortal realm immortal’s magical treasure attacks. He wanted to see how these people borrowed the power of Heaven and Earth when using these treasures, so his Heart Sword could find the true breakthrough point.
If the man knew Chu Linfeng’s thoughts at this moment, he might have been so frustrated he bled and fell from the sky. Soon the black bowl arrived before Chu Linfeng, and he could clearly sense the energy fluctuations emanating from it.
The man gestured with his fingers continuously, while Chu Linfeng focused his Divine Sense on the rim of the bowl. As the white light from the man’s fingers shot towards the black bowl, Chu Linfeng could clearly understand the situation inside. Just as the Ice and Snow Fairy had said, within these magical treasures were some restrictions or seals containing powerful energy attacks.
After a slight tremor at the rim of the bowl, a powerful Sword Qi attack was unleashed toward Chu Linfeng. This powerful Sword Qi attack made Chu Linfeng’s face show a slight flicker of surprise; it had the power equivalent to the Earth Slash performed by an Early-stage Daluo Golden Immortal. This strike would instantly destroy a Mid-stage Golden Immortal.
At that time, Chu Linfeng saw the man’s smug smile—he probably thought Chu Linfeng would die from his magical treasure. Perhaps now he’s thinking: "His strength isn’t much, can’t even withstand one strike from my treasure, dares boast about killing me—what a joke."
When the Sword Qi reached Chu Linfeng, it was immediately blocked by a layer of gray Earth and Stone. After being knocked back several meters from the force of the blow, Chu Linfeng steadied himself. The Earth and Stone Defense had neither been dispersed by the strike nor even showed signs of cracking. Chu Linfeng then blinked his body to appear in front of the black bowl.
With a slight lift of his hand, the black bowl flew involuntarily into Chu Linfeng’s grasp as the middle-aged man became astonished. No matter how he tried to control it, the bowl seemed to ignore his command and landed steadily in Chu Linfeng’s hand.
Chu Linfeng used his Divine Sense to examine the situation inside the bowl and discovered it still contained one or two restrictions, possibly hiding potent techniques. This kind of magical treasure was useless to him. With a thought, a flame with threads of black appeared in his palm, and the black bowl quickly melted into liquid at a speed visible to the naked eye.
With a gentle wave of his hand, Chu Linfeng sent all the liquid flying towards the man. This force wasn’t weaker than several Sword Qi attacks. The man saw his magical treasure melt into liquid before Chu Linfeng and experienced genuine fear in his heart.
Attempting to escape, he found the liquid had already reached him. In his panic, he tried to block it, but it was to no avail; the liquid rushed into his body, creating a large hole in his chest and a severe pain appeared in his brain, making him feel his life rapidly slipping away.
Before he could utter a cry of pain, Chu Linfeng’s Heart Sword came out and destroyed the Immortal Infant in his chest. Thus, an Early-stage Golden Immortal expert was casually slain by Chu Linfeng.
