Eastern Wilderness, Great Xia Kingdom.
It was noon and the sun was scorching.
In the Huntian Taoist Temple, Chen Feng was holding an octagonal ebony box and running quickly along the path leading to Mirror Lake.
"This birthday gift will definitely surprise Xue Ning. She definitely won't have expected that it would be a Pei Yuan Pill.
"In the distance, a sweet and quiet girl in a white dress was standing outside the woods by the lake.
Seeing this figure, Chen Feng sped up."Xue Ning, today is your birthday, I have prepared something for you..."
Chen Feng was wearing a washed-out gray cloth shirt and trousers.
His hair was short and a bit messy, with bruises on his handsome face.
He was sweating and looked a little disheveled, but his face was filled with joy from the bottom of his heart.
As he spoke, he handed over the octagonal ebony box.
"Chen Feng!" The girl interrupted the boy without even looking at the box he handed over. Her cold and unfamiliar tone made Chen Feng stunned.
"It's been six years, and you've only reached the third level of body forging, while I've already reached the peak of the sixth level of body forging and am about to break through to the seventh level.
In a month, I will definitely pass the assessment and become a disciple of the Huntian Sect, and from then on I'll spread my wings and fly high.
And you're just a reptile, are you worthy of me?"
"And this rubbish jade pendant, a scrap you picked up from somewhere, but you insisted it was a family heirloom.
I'm returning it to you. From now on, we have no relationship.
You and I are destined to be from two different worlds. I'm in heaven, and you're on earth.
"The girl became more and more disgusted as she spoke.
She took out a black crescent-shaped jade pendant and threw it fiercely at Chen Feng.
Her originally pure and sweet face became cold and distorted like never before.
The jade pendant hit Chen Feng's face and bounced into the fallen leaves under the tree.
The pain on his face woke Chen Feng up from his daze.
Staring at the still pretty but cold and ruthless face of the girl a few meters away, he felt unprecedentedly strange.
Unauthorized tale usage: if you spot this story on Amazon, report the violation.
For six years, he gave all his body-building pills to her, just to let her practice better, but it became the reason for her to despise him.
A wave of dizziness hit Chen Feng, and he staggered backward unconsciously, his back hitting the tree trunk.
The octagonal sandalwood box in his hand fell out of his hand and rolled into the pile of fallen leaves.
After staring at Yang Xuening for a few moments, Chen Feng came back to his senses.
"Why? Since you are determined to join the Huntian Sect, I will give you all the body-building pills, and be beaten as a sparring partner for a month, just to earn enough money to buy you a Peiyuan Pill so that you can better break through to the seventh level of body-building.
I will give you the jade pendant left by my mother without hesitation if you say you like it.
I am willing to give everything for you. Tell me...
what else have I done wrong?" Chen Feng stepped closer, his voice low and suppressed.
His eyes were filled with extreme grief and anger, which Yang Xuening had never seen before.
She couldn't help feeling guilty and subconsciously avoided his gaze without answering.
"Because you are a waste. If you are a waste, how can you be worthy of a beautiful woman like Xue Ning?"
A frivolous voice was suddenly heard, and a young man wearing a dark green shirt and holding a knife on his back walked from behind a big tree beside Yang Xuening to his side.
He put his hands skillfully on Yang Xuening's waist, and caressed her unscrupulously, with a strong sense of ridicule and mockery on his arrogant face.
"Who are you?"It was so blatant that even if Chen Feng was stupid, he understood what was going on and questioned in a stern voice.
"Chen Feng, listen carefully.
He is Ye Yunqi, who is one of the top ten strongest people in the Taoist academy and ranks fourth.
" Yang Xue Ning leaned on the young man in the dark green tights, her eyebrows flying with joy and her spirits high, as if this honor belonged to her.
"Yun Qi is only eighteen years old, but he has already reached the peak of the eighth transformation of body forging, and he is also the young master of the first family in Da Xia."
Yang Xue Ning raised her neck proudly, staring at Chen Feng with increasing disgust:
"In terms of family background, talent, and wealth, what can you compare with Yun Qi? Your mother who eloped with someone? You are a complete waste, a bastard without a mother."
"Bitch!"The last bit of Chen Feng's sanity was destroyed.
He jumped up and slapped Yang Xuening hard in anger.
"roll!"Ye Yunqi kicked out, and Chen Feng retreated several meters at a faster speed.
He fell down under a big tree and glared at Yang Xuening and Ye Yunqi.
"Okay... okay, things change over time. For today's shame, I, Chen Feng, will pay you back double in the future.
"Chen Feng struggled to get up and shouted at the two of them.
“How ridiculous!” Yang Xuening sneered, her face full of disdain:
“Chen Feng, stop daydreaming. People like you will never achieve anything in your life.
Just accept your fate.
Since we both came from Lingshan City, kneel down and kowtow three times, and I will let Brother Yun spare you…”
"Kneel down, your mother, bitch...dog..." Chen Feng cursed.
"court death!" A cold shout was accompanied by a whistling strong wind.
Chen Feng caught a glimpse of a dark green figure rushing towards him quickly.
He quickly dodged and stretched out his hand to resist, but he was a step too slow.
His forehead was hit so hard that it seemed to explode, his eardrum ruptured, and one of his eyeballs seemed to be squeezed out.
He flew into the air and hit a tree.
Severe pain shocked his whole body, and he couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of blood that splashed on his hands.
Falling under the tree, Chen Feng lost consciousness in half of his head and his consciousness gradually became blurred.
"A piece of trash who doesn't know his own limitations!"
Ye Yunqi's extremely contemptuous voice seemed to float from the distant sky.
"Brother Yun, if this waste dies, will you be punished by the Taoist temple?
" Yang Xuening's slightly uneasy voice sounded."It doesn't matter.
It's just an ant.
It dies, so be it.
I believe the Dao Academy can tell the difference."
Ye Yunqi sneered.
The cold words floated into Chen Feng's ears and made him feel cold all over.
"Let's go.
Today is your eighteenth birthday.
I have prepared a Da Pei Yuan Dan unique to my Ye family for you.
It is enough to allow you to break through to the seventh level of body forging and consolidate your foundation in a short period of time.
Then, you can follow me to participate in the Huntian Sect assessment."
"Brother Yun, you are so nice to me.
" Yang Xuening's voice was full of surprise.
"Then how are you going to repay me?" Ye Yunqi raised his eyebrows and smiled meaningfully.
"You are so bad."
Yang Xuening said in a low voice with a blushing face and eyes full of love.
"There are worse ones...hahahaha..."
Ye Yunqi immediately picked up Yang Xuening's delicate body by the waist.
His wild laughter kept floating into Chen Feng's ears and gradually faded away.
Chen Feng stared at the two quickly departing figures with blurred vision, and struggled to stretch out his bloodstained hands to grab the black crescent-shaped jade pendant in the fallen leaves.
Suddenly, a strange change occurred.
The jade pendant swallowed up all the blood like a dried-up sponge, emitting a strong black light, which instantly flew towards Chen Feng's brow.
Ye Yunqi and Yang Xuening, who were moving away quickly, were unaware of it.
Chen Feng's forehead seemed to be struck by lightning, his vision went dark, and his consciousness seemed to be dragged into a bottomless abyss.
