But she quickly suppressed that emotion.

"No! Absolutely not!"

"No matter how talented he is, he's only a high-grade spiritual root!"

"Compared to my younger brother Lin Yi, and to a true Saint-grade spiritual root, he is still nothing more than a mediocre person!"

Lin Zhengnan also came to his senses at this moment, and said through gritted teeth:

"It's too late for regrets now!"

"Since we've already crossed the line, we have no choice but to nip it in the bud!"

"Pass down the order! Continue to send men to seal off Tian Shu Peak! Do not allow them to leave the mountain!"

……

Over the next two days, the area surrounding the Qingyun Sect was in complete chaos.

A mysterious "masked robber" appears like a ghost in every corner.

He never kills, he only robs!

Moreover, they specifically target disciples of Wang Tianyi and the Lin family!

Whether you're an inner or outer disciple, once he sets his sights on you, there's only one outcome—

Knock them out! Strip them naked!

At the foot of Tian Shu Peak.

Two disciples of the Lin family, at the fourth level of the New Realm, were just about to cause some trouble.

brush!

A dark shadow flashed by.

"Who?!" someone exclaimed.

Qin Feng's face was covered, revealing only a pair of cold eyes:

"Those who will kill you!"

boom!

With both hands forming palms, a violent wave of fire erupted instantly!

Before the two could even scream, their protective spiritual energy shattered instantly. Terrified, they wet themselves and knelt down, begging for mercy.

"Don't kill us! Please don't kill us!"

"Noisy."

Qin Feng didn't bother with words, and knocked them unconscious with a single chop to the neck.

"So easily frightened."

He skillfully reached into the storage bag and weighed it in his hand:

"Not bad, a hundred or so low-grade spirit stones are enough for the disciples to have a few good meals."

After saying that, he vanished in a flash.

……

On a narrow mountain road.

Three of Wang Tianyi's disciples were swaggering along.

suddenly!

A violent heatwave hit me from above!

"Oh no! Enemy attack!"

Bang bang bang!

Before they could even draw their weapons, Qin Feng had already descended from the sky like a tiger coming down from the mountain!

One punch, one kid!

The three collapsed instantly, unconscious.

When they woke up, they found themselves lying naked on the mountain path, wearing only their underwear and exposed to the cold wind.

"Aaaaaah! Who is that robber?!"

"That's outrageous! They even stripped me naked!"

In just two days.

The lower-ranking disciples of the Wang and Lin families were all in a state of fear and dared not go out alone.

They didn't even dare to accept daily tasks anymore, for fear of encountering that nemesis in the wild.

There was even more discussion behind the scenes:

"Is that guy a human or a ghost? He appears and disappears like a ghost!"

"I've heard they specialize in fire-based techniques. Does our sect have such a formidable expert?"

"No! I've never seen it before!"

"They must be reinforcements hired by Tian Shu Peak! They might even be subordinates of the legendary 'Master Feng'!"

……

Elder Wang Tianyi's Hall.

"Useless! A bunch of good-for-nothings!!"

Wang Tianyi slammed his fist on the table in a furious rage, his face contorted in a grimace.

"More than thirty people have been killed in just two days!"

"You didn't even touch a hair on their head! What are you all good for?!"

He was breathing heavily, his eyes bloodshot.

"Investigate! Find out the truth at all costs!"

"Who dares to oppose the Lin family?! I'll make them pay in blood!!"

"Pass down the order! Select elite troops! Have disciples in the late stage of the New Life Realm or even the half-step Divine Power Realm lead the teams!"

"I refuse to believe I can't catch this mouse!"

……

But can we actually catch it?

Qin Feng possesses two Saint-grade spiritual roots, three cultivation techniques, and a thorough understanding of the sect's terrain.

In his eyes, these people were just a flock of fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered!

A dense forest somewhere.

Qin Feng had just dealt with a group of seemingly ordinary Lin family disciples and was preparing to loot their corpses.

suddenly!

Brush brush!

Four powerful auras erupted from all directions!

Four experts at the peak of the Newborn Realm emerged from behind the tree with sinister smiles!

"Finally caught you!"

"You little thief! Prepare to die!"

Qin Feng raised an eyebrow, showing no sign of panic; instead, a slight smile played on his lips.

"Wow? So many people?"

Goodbye!

He swayed slightly, feigning weakness, and slipped away into the depths of the dense forest.

"Chase!!"

The four roared and gave chase.

After chasing for a long time, they didn't even see a ghost. Instead, they were caught off guard by the traps Qin Feng set up using the terrain.

"Ugh! I'm so angry!!"

……

As one side gains and the other loses, the other gains.

The disciples of Tian Shu Peak tentatively descended the mountain and were surprised to find—

Nobody stopped them!

All those previous blockades seemed to have vanished overnight!

Instead, they heard disciples from other peaks complaining that a mysterious person had been robbing people from the Lin and Wang families.

Lu Qianlang and the others exchanged glances, instantly understanding each other's intentions.

"It must be the Peak Master!"

"Besides the Peak Master, who else has such great abilities?"

"Peak Master is mighty!!"

The awe and worship that everyone has for Qin Feng has reached a point of blind devotion!

……

Elder Wang Tianyi's Hall, Secret Chamber.

Zhao Erhu remains unconscious.

A trusted disciple, sweating profusely, reported on the battle losses and the failed ambush, adding cautiously at the end:

"Elder... the rumors circulating about that 'Master Wind' are getting more and more outlandish."

"Everyone says he's backing up Tian Shu Peak..."

Wang Tianyi's face was so gloomy it could drip ink.

"In just a few days, nearly forty people were injured or killed, countless resources were stolen, and our reputation was utterly ruined!"

"This Wind Master... what impressive skills!"

He gritted his teeth, utterly baffled:

"How exactly did Qin Feng get involved with this? Could it be... that he's an old acquaintance of Qin Xiaotian?"

Lin Zhengnan, standing to the side, also frowned and said in a deep voice:

"It seems that small-scale attacks are no longer effective."

"With Master Feng's assistance, the Qin dynasty is poised for great things!"

"If this continues, it will be a lose-lose situation!"

Wang Tianyi took a deep breath, a ruthless glint flashing in his eyes:

"At this point... the only way out is the arena!"

"A public challenge! To decide the winner!"

"Once you step onto the arena, your fate is in the hands of heaven! Not even the sect leader can interfere!"

"But..." Lin Zhengnan hesitated, "Most of our elite troops are injured. Who should we send?"
