Chapter 553: Chapter 554: Chu Fengmian Takes Action (4th Update)

A voice, filled with unmatched arrogance, suddenly came from the sky. The tone of this sentence didn’t seem to put Cang Lanni, an eminent high-order figure at the level of life and death realm, in its eyes at all.

And this arrogant voice belonged precisely to Chu Fengmian.

He didn’t concern himself with the life or death of others, but Bai Xuan owed Chu Fengmian no small favor, and of course, he wouldn’t stand idly by.

"Chu Fengmian?"

Bai Xuan’s face instantly transformed into delight, as this voice was the one she knew all too well, the voice of Chu Fengmian.

Having been pursued by the Undying Demon Lord, Bai Xuan had believed that Chu Fengmian was certainly doomed.

To her surprise, Chu Fengmian had actually survived, even from the clutches of the Undying Demon Lord.

However, the next moment, Bai Xuan’s heart filled with sudden and immense anxiety, as Chu Fengmian was now confronting Cang Lanni.

Cang Lanni’s personality was extremely arrogant and haughty. Now that there was a clash, there was absolutely no chance of a peaceful resolution.

Especially since Cang Lanni was a high-order powerhouse of the life and death realm, within the Ancient Dragon Emperor’s cave dwelling, he was nearly invincible.

Chu Fengmian’s confrontation with Cang Lanni, I’m afraid, spelled more ill than good.

Not just Bai Xuan.

Hearing this voice, the complexions of countless martial artists present changed dramatically, and the scene immediately heated up.

Who was Cang Lanni? An elder of the Cang Lan household!

The Cang Lan household was the first among the martial families in the northern realm, a lineage with thousands of years of inheritance, with depth beyond imagination.

Even Beimang Academy wouldn’t lightly provoke a conflict with the Cang Lan household.

And yet, in the voice that suddenly came through, someone was openly mocking Cang Lanni.

The crowd could not have imagined that someone would suddenly stir up trouble now.

Upon hearing this sentence, Cang Lanni’s expression instantly darkened to the extreme, with a murderous intent in his eyes as if he wanted to kill someone.

With his status, no one had ever dared to speak to him like this, suggesting he was unworthy; he had extended courtesy, only to have it kicked back in his face, an utter humiliation to him.

"Your words, sir, are perhaps too arrogant. Since you do not give me, Cang Lanni, this face, then I will just capture you directly! Sneaking around, making a mystery of yourself! Come out!"

Cang Lanni bellowed angrily, concentrating spiritual power, which then transformed into an immense arm reaching towards the sky.

He was attempting to snatch Chu Fengmian directly from the void.

"Boom!"

But this grasp, reaching deep into the space, found nothing – instead, Chu Fengmian’s voice rang out once more.

"Cang Lanni, with your petty strength, you dare to be so boisterous and rob others? Are the people of the Cang Lan family all born of bandits? That young Cang Lanba already met his demise inside from robbing others, and now, do you wish to seek death too?"

Chu Fengmian spoke while bursting into laughter.

His figure suddenly appeared, standing in front of Bai Xuan, with a flick of his palm, a surge of spiritual power violently infused into Bai Xuan’s body.

Contained within this spiritual power was a touch of the Dragon Blood lineage’s strength, and although it could not transform Bai Xuan’s body, it was enough to heal her wounds instantly.

In an instant, Bai Xuan’s injuries were completely healed, and her strength, even more powerful than just moments before.

"What is this?"

Bai Xuan’s face was filled with utter astonishment.

Her injuries, though not critical, were not minor either. A complete recovery would need at least a month or two.

Yet now, in the hands of Chu Fengmian, her recovery appeared instantaneous.

What surprised her even more was Chu Fengmian’s aura, which had become deeper and more unfathomable than the last time she saw him.

Even Bai Xuan could hardly discern the extent of Chu Fengmian’s current strength.

"Ba’er! Was it you who killed him?"

Upon hearing Chu Fengmian’s words, Cang Lanni’s expression changed dramatically, and his eyes bulged with intensity.

Cang Lanba was a genius of their Cang Lan family and, moreover, Cang Lanni’s son.

Cang Lanni naturally knew of Cang Lanba’s demise. He had searched frantically in the Ancient Dragon Emperor’s cave dwelling, seeking the murderer who killed Cang Lanba.

Now, hearing Chu Fengmian’s words, the fury in his heart erupted, his face turning crimson and his Martial Arts prowess fully displayed.

"Give me your life! I will use your head to commemorate Ba’er!"

As he spoke, Cang Lanni’s Martial Arts essence was completely condensed, his Spiritual Power swirling around him, making him shine as dazzlingly as the sun.

His extreme Martial Arts prowess was enough to suppress most of the people present, rendering them unable to make a move.

He waved his hand, causing the entire void to tremble. With a palm strike, the mysteries of Martial Arts were contained within. The Martial Arts of the Cang Lan family were fully and vividly demonstrated.

"What terrifying Martial Arts! Is this the Martial Arts of the Cang Lan family, a Martial Arts household of ten thousand years?"

"Cang Lanni’s strength has already reached the high levels of the Life and Death Realm; his Martial Arts are shockingly fearsome. Such a figure is simply invincible!"

"This brat is just at the ninth layer of the Divine Power Realm and dares to provoke Cang Lanni; he’s literally seeking his own death!"

One after another, the Martial Artists shook their heads upon seeing Chu Fengmian’s realm.

They had assumed that Chu Fengmian must be at least a high-tier figure of the Life and Death Realm to dare contend with Cang Lanni like this.

But the Chu Fengmian before them was merely at the ninth layer of the Divine Power Realm. Even with monstrous talent, prevailing over Life and Death Realm’s fourth or fifth layers was his limit.

Arrogance with strength might be called pride, but arrogance without strength is merely courting death.

The sixth layer of the Life and Death Realm marked the entry into its high tiers, a stark difference in power that not even a Divine Power Realm Martial Artist could shake.

"Be careful, the Martial Arts of the Cang Lan family focus on strength; you can’t resist it head-on."

Bai Xuan cautioned out loud.

She could see that Chu Fengmian, in the Ancient Dragon Emperor’s cave dwelling, had encountered more adventures and further improved his strength.

However, Cang Lanni was, after all, a figure of the high tiers in the Life and Death Realm, not someone a Divine Power Realm Martial Artist could easily challenge.

Even if the seed disciples from Beimang Academy were called, few could achieve this, except perhaps those ranked in the top ten of the heavenly list.

Yet such individuals were the stuff of legends, those who had cultivated diligently at the ninth layer of the Divine Power Realm for hundreds or even thousands of years to reach this stage.

Chu Fengmian seemed to have only just reached the ninth layer of the Divine Power Realm without sufficient accumulation—how could he possibly achieve this?

Bai Xuan believed in Chu Fengmian’s strength, but upon witnessing Cang Lanba in action, she could only sigh, as if she had already foreseen the outcome.

All eyes were on Chu Fengmian, watching how this arrogant young figure would be obliterated by Cang Lanni.
