Chapter 254: It Felt Good, But What Now?
At this moment, the grand competition arena had long since fallen into silence; in fact, the entire Weapon Refining City had plunged into dead silence.
Li Xuanfeng had used overwhelming power to behead five King Realm experts in succession, four of whom were in the top ten of the King Ranking.
The Heaven-Opening King, Yin Kui King, Spear-Covering King, and Hundred Fire King represented the strongest group of people on the King Ranking.
Yet, this very group of people could not even offer resistance before Li Xuanfeng; they were slaughtered like mere chicks!
"Peerless King, truly peerless under the heavens!"
"He is simply unreasonably powerful!"
"Forget about resisting or defending, they couldn't even scatter to escape. The gap in strength has already reached an unimaginable level!"
"Who is actually stronger, him or the rumored Blood Devil King?"
"They say the Blood Devil King is not on the same level as other King Realm experts, and the Peerless King is likewise not on the same level as them. Perhaps there isn't much difference between the two."
"It cannot be denied that the Blood Devil King is strong, but definitely not this outrageous. The Blood Devil King is inferior to the Peerless King!"
"I also think the Peerless King is definitely stronger!"
"He is the true number one on the King Ranking. I really don't know how the Holy City came up with such a ranking of eighth place!"
"This is the first time the Holy City has made such a huge error in the King Ranking!"
Countless Cultivators were shocked and bewildered, whispering to each other through sound transmissions.
The higher the Realm, the harder it is to widen the gap.
However, Li Xuanfeng's performance made countless Cultivators doubt reality itself.
Li Xuanfeng's invincible figure would be forever etched in their memories, impossible to forget.
"I knew it!"
"Senior Peerless King's strength will always exceed the world's imagination!"
"He has clearly become stronger!"
"And only half a year has passed!"
"He is inferior to him; the Blood Devil King is definitely far inferior to him!"
Xu Zhenlong looked at the figure appearing on the bronze mirror, his expression fanatical, his face flushed with excitement.
"Father, I was right, wasn't I!"
"Before, you wanted to meet Senior Peerless King; it is fortunate you didn't go, otherwise you saw what the outcome would be!"
Xu Zhenlong turned his head to look at his old man.
Xu Zhi did not answer him, only staring at Li Xuanfeng's figure in the bronze mirror with a shocked expression.
He had thought Li Xuanfeng would be strong, but he never expected him to be this strong!
"Son, you are right!"
After a long while, Xu Zhi took a deep breath and let it out, looking at Xu Zhenlong with a faint smile.
His attitude had undergone a huge change compared to before.
It was fortunate that he hadn't truly gone to meet Li Xuanfeng, otherwise he would be a corpse by now—no, he should be reduced to nothing, his Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering!
Just a moment ago, he had found Li Xuanfeng's arrogant words grating and felt displeased, harboring the urge to take action.
Now it seemed that he had been too arrogant, or rather, he had ultimately underestimated Li Xuanfeng's terror.
In front of so many Emperor Realm experts, he had actually been so ruthless, killing them all directly!
If other Cultivators encountered a situation similar to Li Xuanfeng's, even if they had the strength to crush their opponent, they surely wouldn't have dealt a killing blow in the end.
The Heaven-Opening King had wanted to challenge Li Xuanfeng himself and had even stated that life and death were up to fate, so there was nothing to say about his own death.
But if Xu Zhi were in Li Xuanfeng's position, he certainly wouldn't have dealt a killing blow, or rather, he wouldn't have dared to.
Because that would directly offend the Fan family; even if displeased, one would have to endure it.
The Yin Kui King's intentions were also very clear: to find an excuse to snatch treasures from Li Xuanfeng.
The Spear-Covering King wanted to avenge the Red Spear King, Cloud Thunder King, Dark Spear King, and others, settling scores with Li Xuanfeng.
The Hundred Fire King was the same, intending to deal with Li Xuanfeng because of the Lijiang Branch Sect matter.
Looking solely at today's matter, they had no justification for being killed by Li Xuanfeng, but if any normal person were in Li Xuanfeng's position, they wouldn't have taken things this far!
The Heaven-Opening King, Yin Kui King, Spear-Covering King, and Hundred Fire King were no small figures; they were representative figures of the King Realm within four super-powers.
Emperor Realm experts rarely showed themselves, so many major matters were handled by these people, who possessed great power.
Killing them was effectively a slap in the face to the super-powers!
If they hadn't been killed, there would still be room for maneuver; perhaps with an apology or some resources, the major powers wouldn't pursue the matter to the end.
But Li Xuanfeng had taken things to the extreme, completely cutting off his own path of retreat!
In the eyes of normal people, this kind of behavior was no different from that of a madman!
Xu Zhi knew that if he hadn't been able to suppress his impulse, the outcome would have been the same; Li Xuanfeng certainly wouldn't have given him the slightest chance!
"With such crazy behavior, it felt good for him, but what about what comes next?"
Xu Zhi looked at Li Xuanfeng's figure, thinking silently to himself.
Previously, the number of people Li Xuanfeng had offended wasn't that many, and the Xu family had differing attitudes regarding him; not everyone advocated being enemies with Li Xuanfeng.
But now, of the eight super-powers in the Holy City region, Li Xuanfeng had offended half of them all at once!
The Xu family, Fan family, Heavenly Puppet Sect, and Black Fire Sect—even if they each only dispatched a portion of their strength to deal with him, they could force him into a situation where he had nowhere to hide!
Li Xuanfeng's relationship with the sisters Ming Yueqing and Ming Yuesnow seemed very unusual, but the Ming family alone absolutely could not protect him!
The situation ahead was the most dangerous.
"Now there is trouble; he has completely offended four powers!"
"Even if he were brought back to the Ming family headquarters, the four major powers might join forces and come to demand him!"
"Moreover, whether he can leave the Hundred Weapon Domain safely is a question!"
Ming Yueyao recovered from the extreme shock of Li Xuanfeng.
He had finally witnessed the terrifying strength of Li Xuanfeng after his Breakthrough to the Peak of the King Realm, and he knew this was certainly far from Li Xuanfeng's full extent.
Although he had wanted to see the other top ten on the King Ranking beaten up by Li Xuanfeng, he hadn't expected Li Xuanfeng to be so resolute, directly beating them all until they were reduced to nothing and their Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering!
The top brass at headquarters didn't yet know about the relationship between his two daughters and Li Xuanfeng; now that this had happened, would they be willing to protect Li Xuanfeng?
Ming Yueyao felt a bit anxious.
In contrast, Ming Yuejin, who was beside him, had eyes shining with brilliance at this moment, quietly staring at Li Xuanfeng's figure, her breathing even becoming slightly rapid.
"So strong!"
"Worthy of being the Peerless King!"
"Worthy of being him!"
"Powerful, invincible, resolute; there isn't such a perfect man even in storybooks!"
"I can't take it, I…"
"I cannot, he is Qing'er and Xue'er's man…"
Ming Yuejin's heart was pounding, and fearing that her older brother or two nieces would notice her abnormality, she tried hard to calm herself down.
"Killing the Hundred Fire King and the others is what makes it most dangerous for him going forward!"
"Although I don't know why the Spirit Emperor is willing to help him, the Spirit Emperor cannot help him forever; whether he can leave the Hundred Weapon Domain safely is a question!"
"What to do?"
"Are the clan elders willing to protect him?"
After a burst of inexplicable excitement and agitation, Ming Yuejin quickly calmed down and began to worry about Li Xuanfeng.
"No, he cannot have an accident; I don't want him to have an accident!"
"I will come forward with my older brother to plead for him, hoping the clan elders can help him!"
Ming Yuejin thought to herself.
