Chapter 42: I Will Be Back

Swish…

The Cold Moon City Lord was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of Hu Feng and blocked the exit of the Underground Arena.

His eyes were clear, his forehead was full, and his figure was upright. Dressed in a spotless white warrior uniform, he looked younger than Lasalle, who spent all day indulging in pleasure. He radiated vitality from the inside out, as vigorous as a ten-thousand-year-old tree. His fluctuating power resonated with the magic power of heaven and earth, merging into one.

This was a true warrior!

Hu Feng tightened his grip on the Dark Magic Pen and took a deep breath. He knew he had encountered another true expert.

If the powerful Hei Mu Sword Saint had ascended to heaven, looking down on all living beings, the Cold Moon City Lord before him had taken half a step. He was only one line away from breaking through to the Sword Saint realm. His understanding of power and his control over the spiritual energy of heaven and earth had reached a height that ordinary people could never hope to reach in their lifetime!

Seeing Lasalle, who was dying in Hu Feng’s hand, the Cold Moon City Lord’s face turned cold. His anger turned into sharp Sword Qi. “Evil heretic, put down Lasalle. I can let you die quickly to avoid burning you on the Burning Stake for three days and three nights!”

Burn for three days and three nights?

Hu Feng smiled coldly. “Out of consideration for a father’s heart, I was originally going to let it go and let this guy Lasalle live for a few more years. But you are his father, and you failed to teach him. He did nothing but bad things without any punishment, and he still did not repent today. Since you called others evil heretics at the first word, then today I will show you how evil you really are!”

Hu Feng’s face turned cold. He pressed down hard with the five fingers of his left hand and devoured Lasalle, who had only one breath left, right on the spot.

After inheriting the Soul Imprint of Ovisis, he instinctively felt the strongest aversion to hypocritical people like the Cold Moon City Lord who did bad things in secret. Lasalle, this playboy, not only had to be killed but killed swiftly!

“No, I will kill you…”

Watching his only son, Lasalle, being devoured bit by bit by Hu Feng, the Cold Moon City Lord screamed loudly. He drew the long sword on his back with a reverse hand and thrust it directly at Hu Feng’s brow.

As a City Lord with high status and great strength, even high-ranking Divine Officials of the Divine Court and Elders of the War Soul Hall did not dare to act recklessly in his presence. With a single order, obedience was enforced. Even the fiercest Demon Hunters did not dare to be presumptuous in the city. He thought that as soon as he appeared, this guy Hu Feng would have to surrender, no matter how fierce he was. To his surprise, this guy not only shrank back but also attacked him fiercely!

Rebellion!

The Cold Moon City Lord was furious and instantly unleashed a Fatal Strike!

In an instant, the heaven and earth changed color. The violent Killing Intent turned into an unstoppable storm. With a ‘whoosh’ sound, it lifted several tons of heavy stone steles in front of the exit of the Underground Arena. The cold wind pouring into the Underground Arena sounded like sharp bayonets, crushing everything in its path into fragments. Unaware people inside the arena ran around in all directions. Their crying shook the sky. Everyone was terrified as if the end of the world had come.

Ding…

After a crisp sound, the world became quiet!

Hu Feng’s Dark Magic Pen collided head-on with the Cold Moon City Lord’s cold long sword. Then, a more violent shockwave erupted. The hard walls collapsed one by one, making a huge noise like a volcanic eruption. Cardiron hugged the dying Minotaur Udely and curled up tightly, hiding in a dark corner. Aside from the howling wind in his ears, he could hear nothing!

At the critical moment, Hu Feng did not dodge. Instead, he fought head-on, with boundless battle intent!

After breaking through to the fourth tier of Magician, Demon Hunters of the same realm were no longer a concern. Even those one realm higher, ordinary Grand Swordsmen and Great Magicians, were no match for him. The stronger you became, the braver you fought in battle. Only by fighting with experts like the Cold Moon City Lord, who had cultivated to the Peak of Tier 9 of the Grand Swordsman, could you possibly gain some understanding and further break through the bottleneck of cultivation.

After one battle, the strength of both sides was fully exposed.

The Cold Moon City Lord retreated a few steps. His face was cold and hideous. His warrior uniform was corroded by the Dark Mist, forming a layer of fine cracks. He no longer had the previous calm demeanor. Hu Feng groaned once, was shaken back, and spat a mouthful of blood. The Magic Power and Soul Power in his body seemed to be on the verge of collapse.

This Fatal Strike of the Cold Moon City Lord was not far from an attack of one percent from Sword Saint Hei Mu. Its power was astonishingly great, far exceeding that of an ordinary Grand Swordsman!

“Good. I don’t believe you can take another strike of mine!”

Hu Feng was a little surprised. He did not expect the Cold Moon City Lord to be so powerful. At the same time, the Cold Moon City Lord, not far away, was even more shocked. He did not expect Hu Feng to casually take his Fatal Strike! After the shock, he let out a fierce roar, gathered all his strength, and launched a sharper attack. He instantly swung three swords, aiming at Hu Feng’s vital points, swearing to kill Hu Feng on the spot.

Moon-Severing Slash!

The furious Cold Moon City Lord, enraged and furious, used his famous ultimate skill to its fullest. When he slashed down three times, even the moonlight could be severed. Ghosts cried and wolves howled. It was so deadly that even the strongest demonic beasts in the Wasteland trembled with fear. He did not believe that Hu Feng could escape this time!

He was a Peak of Tier 9 expert of the Grand Swordsman. An all-out attack, regardless of the consequences, was simply unstoppable, like a god-slayer!

From a distance, the Magic Power in the sky above the entire Cold Moon City seemed to be drained. It turned into three giant sharp swords and whistled towards Hu Feng. Sensing the strong energy fluctuation, all the experts within a radius of 108,000 miles were equally shocked. Thousands and thousands of powerful divine thoughts descended almost instantly onto the small Underground Arena, silently watching this intense battle.

Powerful!

Hu Feng’s face changed drastically. He realized that he was indeed not the opponent of the other party. There was a gap in realm between them that was not slight. No matter how tough he was, he did not dare to take this all-out attack head-on. The Dark Wings behind him unfolded fully. The thick Dark Mist turned into a rope, pulling Cardiron and the Minotaur Udely in the corner. He used the Great Teleportation Technique and disappeared with a ‘swish’ sound.

“Cold Moon City Lord, truly powerful! When I descend again, that will be the day your Cold Moon City falls. At that time, I will personally cut off your head!”

Hu Feng traveled thousands of miles in an instant and returned silently to the distant Lich Castle. Only a vague and cold voice remained in the Void. He had found the Minotaur slave Udely, which was the purpose of this trip. There was no need to fight to the death with the mad Cold Moon City Lord. It would not be too late to cut off his head after breaking through to the Grand Swordsman realm!

“Damn it, where are you running?”

Seeing Hu Feng disappear there and then, the Cold Moon City Lord was furious. He thrust the sharp sword in his hand fiercely into the Void. Unfortunately, he was one step too late and instantly lost his connection to Hu Feng. The sharp sword tip only had a drop of blood drawn from Hu Feng’s skin. Before he could examine it carefully, it ‘swished’ and quickly turned into a ball of black mist and disappeared. The corrosion was astonishing, leaving a hair-thin notch on the hard long sword.

“Issue the order. Offer a bounty of 10 million Contribution Points for the head of that Great Demon Head. You must kill him!” Looking at the clear notch on the long sword, the Cold Moon City Lord was both surprised and angry.

Having cultivated for several thousand years in the Wasteland, he had never seen such a terrifying Dark Magician. Even worse, this devil Hu Feng had already stepped out of the category of Magician. He seemed to have cultivated a profound Innate Divine Ability like a powerful Commander of demons. Whether in close combat or long-range attacks, his combat power had reached a terrible level!

He had already been so fierce at the Low-rank Magician stage. If he broke through to the Great Magician stage, who in Cold Moon City would be his match?

“Cold Moon City has been passed down for hundreds of thousands of years. Could it really be destroyed by me?”

Looking at the Cold Moon City, which was red as blood under the setting sun, the Cold Moon City Lord’s hands and feet turned cold. He felt a strong pressure. Having cultivated to his level, he had already touched the thread of fate in the unknown. Others might not care, but he was very clear that those words Hu Feng said before leaving were not just a simple warning!
