Dragon God Supreme

Chapter 80: Chapter 080: Su Yuanshan’s Concerns

Burn Heaven Valley fell into complete silence as if time had stopped at this very moment.

Was this an illusion?

Was this a sign of failing eyesight?

Neither; this was reality!

All disciples around Burn Heaven Valley, including the genius disciples and the senior disciple, were utterly shocked.

Wu Kun, of the eighthfold Transformative Realm, was considered exceptional among the many disciples for his speed, but even such a powerful disciple was defeated by a single punch from Feng Wuchen.

...

Just one punch, Wu Kun was seriously injured and fell unconscious on the spot!

Feng Wuchen showed no mercy in his strike, completely disregarding the face of Burn Heaven Valley.

Miao Qingqing, not far behind Feng Wuchen, also widened her eyes in disbelief; although she knew of Feng Wuchen’s formidable strength, she had not realized it was to such an extent.

At this moment, many disciples of Burn Heaven Valley looked on with fear in their eyes.

With Feng Wuchen’s current identity and status, even if he killed them, Burn Heaven Valley would not dare to do anything to him.

It was like with Lin Yuntian; Feng Wuchen killed him, and Burn Heaven Valley would not dare to seek revenge from Feng Wuchen!

Although Burn Heaven Valley was powerful, they dared not make enemies with the royal family of the Empire!

Su Yuanshan recovered from his shock and furrowed his brows, thinking to himself, “Knocking out Wu Kun with one punch; it seems this youngster indeed has the strength to have killed Lin Yunchong. Yet, when this youngster was in Luan Tian City, Lin Yunchong had already arrived there. With his strength, it shouldn’t have been difficult to kill this youngster.”

It was impossible for even a supreme genius like Feng Wuchen to break through from the fourth layer of the Transformative Realm to the sixth layer within a mere two months, right?

That’s not the point.

The point is, Lin Yunchong had already set out to hunt down Feng Wuchen. At that time, Feng Wuchen was most certainly still at the fourth layer of the Transformative Realm, so he couldn’t possibly have killed Lin Yunchong.

What exactly happened? Su Yuanshan couldn’t figure it out.

“Valley Master Su, I may have been a bit heavy-handed; I hope you will not take offense,” Feng Wuchen said with a light smile, turning his gaze to Su Yuanshan.

Hearing that, Su Yuanshan returned a slight smile, “Master Feng is jesting, Wu Kun was simply no match.”

“Master Feng, please come inside,” the Grand Elder said with a respectful smile, not daring to show any disrespect due to Feng Wuchen’s identity.

“No need,” Feng Wuchen shook his head and said, “I came here to clarify some matters.”

“But of course, Master Feng. Please speak freely,” Su Yuanshan said with a feigned ignorant smile, already guessing Feng Wuchen’s purpose.

Nodding his head, Feng Wuchen said, “Some time ago Lin Yunchong captured my friend Liu Qingyang, the young master of the Liu family from Luan Tian City. Up to now, there’s still no word from Liu Qingyang. I wonder if Lin Yunchong might have brought him back to Burn Heaven Valley?”

“Brother Lin? Oh right! Brother Lin has been gone from the mountain for a long time, and he hasn’t come back yet!”

“I heard Brother Lin went to seek revenge on Master Feng, could it be that Brother Lin was also killed by Master Feng?”

“Judging by how Master Feng just knocked out Brother Wu Kun with one punch, it’s quite possible that Brother Lin was killed too!”

“But Brother Lin was at the Ninth Level of the Transformative Realm, there’s no way he could have been killed!”

The disciples began discussing in shocked whispers; they hadn’t thought about Lin Yunchong until Feng Wuchen brought it up.

“What an idiot, even if he brought him back, who would admit it?” a disciple muttered under his breath, looking as if he was staring at someone with an intellectual disability.

However, Su Yuanshan and the elders didn’t think so; Feng Wuchen’s question was not an easy one to answer.

To say Lin Yunchong wasn’t there would surely make Feng Wuchen suspect that it was Burn Heaven Valley who sent Lin Yunchong after him; to say they had him was even more impossible, for knowing he was a friend of Master Feng, how dare Burn Heaven Valley continue to detain him, if not courting death?

“Master Feng, the truth is, after Lin Yunchong learned that his brother was killed, we guessed he would seek revenge. We tried to dissuade him with all our might, but to no avail. He left that same day, and we expelled him from Burn Heaven Valley. We haven’t seen him since, nor has he returned,” Su Yuanshan said with a helpless wry smile.

Having guessed that Lin Yunchong was killed by Feng Wuchen, Su Yuanshan took great pains to wash his hands of the matter.

“Is that so?” Feng Wuchen seemed quite surprised, but he didn’t believe Su Yuanshan’s lies, thinking to himself, “Su Yuanshan is truly a sly old fox; it seems he’s guessed that I killed Lin Yunchong.”

“Expelled from Burn Heaven Valley?” The disciples were stunned, though no one dared to interject.

The Grand Elder nodded and said, “Indeed, that is the case.”

“What have you done to Brother Lin?” Suddenly, a disciple shouted angrily at Feng Wuchen.

Glancing at the disciple, Feng Wuchen said with a light smile, “I killed him.”

“Killed him?” The disciples were immensely shocked.

“Lin Yunchong wanted to avenge his brother’s death by killing me; I couldn’t just stand there and let him, could I? Anyway, since he’s been expelled from Burn Heaven Valley, there isn’t much to it if he’s killed,” Feng Wuchen said, shrugging his shoulders with a smile.

Upon hearing this, the expressions on Su Yuanshan’s and the elders’ faces darkened slightly.

Feng Wuchen was clearly showing no regard for Burn Heaven Valley, and was not giving Su Yuanshan any face either.

“Outrageous! To have even killed Brother Lin, you insolent brat, don’t think we fear you because you’re the Grand Commander of the Empire!”

“Avenge Brother Lin! We can’t let this bastard leave Burn Heaven Valley alive!”

“Kill him! Kill him!”

The disciples of Burn Heaven Valley roared in anger, their voices thunderous and murderous intent soaring.

“Big Brother Feng, is Big Brother Liu really in Burn Heaven Valley?” Miao Qingqing asked softly, looking at the infuriated disciples of Burn Heaven Valley and beginning to feel a little scared.

“He’s not here, I can’t sense Qingyang’s presence,” Feng Wuchen replied in a low voice, feeling extremely disappointed in his heart.

“Then where on earth could Big Brother Liu be?” Miao Qingqing asked anxiously. If Liu Qingyang wasn’t in Burn Heaven Valley, where could Lin Yunchong have hidden him?

Could it be that Liu Qingyang really died?

Feng Wuchen shook his head and said, “I don’t know either.”

Su Yuanshan raised his hand, signaling the disciples to quiet down.

Looking at Feng Wuchen, Su Yuanshan said, “Master Feng, the disciples speak out of turn, I hope you’ll forgive them.”

“The patience of this old fox is truly remarkable; he can even endure this,” Feng Wuchen inwardly marveled, but he replied with a faint smile on his face, “Valley Master Su is overthinking it.”

“Since Lin Yunchong didn’t bring Liu Qingyang back, I will take my leave,” Feng Wuchen continued with a smile, cupped his hands in salute, and then turned to leave.

But many disciples of Burn Heaven Valley were not pleased, and quickly, dozens of disciples blocked Feng Wuchen’s way.

“You killed Brother Lin and you think you can just leave? Others might fear you, but we don’t!”

“Murder must be paid for with life; it’s only natural! You won’t leave Burn Heaven Valley alive!”

The disciples were extremely angry, and their shouting did not cease.

“I want to leave, but I doubt you can stop me, don’t you agree, Valley Master Su?” Feng Wuchen said with a slight smile, his gaze shifting to Su Yuanshan, a flash of coldness in his eyes.

Sensing the coldness in Feng Wuchen’s eyes, Su Yuanshan felt a cold sweat break out on his back, but his face turned even uglier.

“Arrogant and conceited! This is Burn Heaven Valley, not the Empire’s military camp. What can a Grand Commander do? Can you escape from Burn Heaven Valley?” a disciple shouted angrily.

“If we kill you, the Empire won’t even know who did it!” another disciple threatened.

“Oh? Is that so?” Feng Wuchen said in surprise, then sneered, “Are you sure we came here as just two people?”

Su Yuanshan’s and several elders’ expressions changed drastically. Did Feng Wuchen’s words not imply he had brought powerful reinforcements?

Where were the powerful allies? Why couldn’t they sense any presence? Could it be a Tianyuan Realm expert?

Feng Wuchen, a Fifth Grade Thought-Forming Instrumentation Artifact Refiner who was also an Alchemist, indeed had the resources to invite a Tianyuan Realm expert!

For a while, Su Yuanshan and the higher-ups of Burn Heaven Valley were in a panic; if Feng Wuchen had indeed brought a formidable expert, Burn Heaven Valley would surely be destroyed!

The more Su Yuanshan thought about it, the more panicked he became. He immediately ordered in a low voice, “Back down! Do not disrespect Master Feng!”

Su Yuanshan dared not doubt that Feng Wuchen was bluffing, because he had the resources to make such a claim, and he couldn’t afford to gamble!

“Valley Master Su, I bid you farewell!” Feng Wuchen said with a smile. The disciples blocking the way were incredibly reluctant in their hearts but didn’t dare to disobey Su Yuanshan’s command.

Watching Feng Wuchen leave with imposing strides, those disciples gnashed their teeth in frustration, wishing they could bite a chunk out of him.

After leaving Burn Heaven Valley, Miao Qingqing finally let out a deep breath, having been truly frightened, with her pretty face still somewhat pale.

If Su Yuanshan hadn’t let them leave, the two of them would have surely perished in Burn Heaven Valley!

“I was really scared to death just now,” Miao Qingqing said, patting her chest in lingering fear.

Feng Wuchen said, “Su Yuanshan, that old fox, has a very strong capacity for patience. Anyone else would have turned against us long ago.”

“Big Brother Feng, weren’t you worried or scared at all just now?” Miao Qingqing asked while looking at Feng Wuchen.

“Of course, I was scared, so I had to use my brains, intimidate Su Yuanshan so they wouldn’t dare to lay a hand on us,” Feng Wuchen said with a light smile.

If the disciples of Burn Heaven Valley had disobeyed Su Yuanshan’s orders and swarmed him, Feng Wuchen really would have had no other option, having risked his life to enter in the first place.

Of course, if Feng Wuchen hadn’t been sure he could intimidate Su Yuanshan, he wouldn’t have risked his life coming to Burn Heaven Valley.

…

“Valley Master, do you really believe this kid brought powerful allies?” one of the elders asked, frowning.

Su Yuanshan’s face was extremely grim. When had he suffered such a snub? When had he ever lost his temper like this in front of a sixteen- or seventeen-year-old boy?

Glaring at Feng Wuchen’s departing silhouette, Su Yuanshan said, “I don’t know, but the fact that this kid dared to come indicates he has enough confidence! I can’t risk the survival of Burn Heaven Valley! It’s better to believe that he has, rather than risk it.”

Even if he knew Feng Wuchen hadn’t brought any powerful ally, Su Yuanshan didn’t dare to gamble; he didn’t have the capital, and he didn’t want to capsize in a gutter.

“The speed of this kid’s cultivation is too terrifying. He broke through two layers in just two months. If we let him continue to grow like this, the consequences are unthinkable,” the Great Elder said gravely, deeply worried.

“Without a Yuandan Realm expert taking action, I’m afraid we won’t be able to kill him! The people sent out by other powers were all killed by that kid,” another elder said.

Su Yuanshan remained silent, his thoughts inscrutable, but the fierce look in his eyes indicated that he was contemplating a way to eliminate Feng Wuchen.

After a long time, Su Yuanshan finally said in a deep voice, “Even if we can’t eliminate him, he won’t be able to do much to us, but to avoid complications, we must get rid of him as soon as possible!”

The Great Elder nodded in agreement, “The Valley Master’s words are very true. The more people this kid kills, the more enemies he’ll attract. I’m curious to see if he really wants to be an enemy to the entire Yunzhou’s major powers!”
