Chapter 1656: Chapter 1656: Acting on Heaven’s Behalf

A man and a ghost walked into the mountain cave.

It was not quite what Chen Feng had imagined before.

The cave where the black-robed man resided was not big; it was very small.

After only a few steps, they reached the end.

And when Chen Feng walked inside the cave.

He discovered.

Sitting in front of the cave wall at the far end was a figure.

It was a middle-aged man dressed in a black robe, with his eyes closed.

His appearance was quite ordinary, the kind that would go unnoticed in a crowd.

Yet, such a person.

Sitting there, gave an invisible sense of oppression.

Even Chen Feng couldn’t help but furrow his brows.

His intuition told him.

This black robe was not simple.

It made sense.

Being able to discover the Heavenly Origin Pearl within Lu Ying.

And to think of such a vicious method to steal it, could an ordinary person do that?

Moreover, could an ordinary person create a troublesome monster like the Green-eyed Wolf?

It was clearly impossible.

It seemed this time, he had unwittingly encountered a tough opponent. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Thinking of this.

Chen Feng shook his head with a smile.

However, he didn’t back down in his heart.

Although this black robe appeared difficult to deal with.

Chen Feng was no pushover either.

He dared to take on the entire Tie Sect.

So why fear just this one black robe now?

If there’s a fight to be had.

Then let it be fought to the end.

Chen Feng never feared!

"You finally came!"

At this moment.

The black-robed man sitting in front of the cave wall opened his eyes, looked at Chen Feng, and said coldly.

"Oh? You’re not surprised at all. It seems my actions have indeed been under your surveillance for some time!"

Chen Feng squinted his eyes slightly, sneering as he spoke.

"Didn’t you already know that you had been discovered by me? Yet you still dared to come. This means you have some confidence or backing, am I right?"

The black-robed man asked with a cold laugh.

"You could think of it that way. In any case, I came today to kill you. Unless I achieve my goal, I won’t go back. Even if you discovered me, I would still come to kill you!"

Chen Feng said plainly.

"Ha, such arrogance, young man, do you really think you have the power to kill me?"

The black-robed man scoffed contemptuously, his face full of disdain.

"How would one know without trying? Since you knew I was coming and still waited here for me, does that mean you are confident in defeating me, or even killing me? If that’s the case, there’s no need for either of us to hide anything. I like honesty—let’s fight!"

Chen Feng squinted slightly, speaking calmly.

"Fine, fine. You’re truly reckless. Since you’re so sincere about it, I’ll oblige. But before we start, you must answer one question for me!"

The black-robed man said with a cold laugh.

"What question?"

Chen Feng asked, puzzled.

"Why do you interfere in this matter? Why do you obstruct me? It seems that little girl isn’t related to you at all, right? Couldn’t you just turn a blind eye and pass by? Why involve yourself? Don’t you know that meddling could be life-threatening?"

The black-robed man asked, looking puzzled.

"Simple!"

Chen Feng’s lips curved slightly, and he said calmly, "Upholding moral justice!"

"Ah, upholding moral justice, young man, sometimes meddling can get you in trouble. Since you insist on interfering today, don’t blame me for being cruel!"

A cold gleam flashed in the black robe’s eyes, and his voice was icy.

As soon as he finished speaking.

Suddenly, a terrifying fluctuation of True Qi was unleashed from his body.

It swept in all directions.

Even the cave began to tremble due to the intense aura of the black-robed man.

Seeing this.

Chen Feng also squinted his eyes.

The power of the black-robed man was indeed beyond his expectation.

If nothing else.

Judging from the intensity of this aura alone.

The realm of this black-robed man was at least above Heavenly Rank Perfection!

After all, Heavenly Rank Late Stage, even Heavenly Rank Late Stage Peak, wouldn’t necessarily cause such a commotion.

This made Chen Feng furrow his brow.

He initially thought this was just a thief in the dark stealing energy, with a strength at most at the Heavenly Rank Early or Middle Stage, which would be quite high already.

But who would have thought that he would encounter a Heavenly Rank Perfection expert just by chance.

Chen Feng was somewhat speechless.

He didn’t know whether to say his luck was bad or good.

If it was said to be bad luck.

A Heavenly Rank Perfection, the pinnacle of the Ancient Martial World’s apex.

An ordinary person might never see one in a lifetime.

But what about him? In just two days, he first met the Great Elder of the Tie Sect.

Now he met this black-robed man.

Both of them are Heavenly Rank Perfection experts.

Seeing two in two days, the probability is practically hundred percent.

But if his luck was said to be good.

Both Heavenly Rank Perfection experts were his enemies.

In two consecutive days, he made enemies of two top experts in the Ancient Martial World.

The thought of it was simply speechless.

So for a moment, Chen Feng didn’t know what to say.

He was utterly speechless to the extreme right now.

But, he still had to fight.

He couldn’t give up just because the opponent was a Heavenly Rank Perfection expert.

Besides, it wasn’t even the first time Chen Feng faced a Heavenly Rank Perfection expert.

So he wasn’t too alarmed.

Taking a deep breath.

Chen Feng was not to be outdone and released his own True Qi fluctuations.

Feeling the True Qi fluctuations released by Chen Feng.

The black-robed man was stunned at first, then burst into laughter.

The laughter was full of disdain.

After the laughter.

The black-robed man lowered his head, looked at Chen Feng, full of contempt, and said, "A mere Heavenly Rank Early Stage dares to trouble me. Aren’t you afraid I’ll beat your guts out?"

"We’ll see if you have the ability!"

Chen Feng’s lips curved slightly, and he spoke fearlessly.

"Heh, you’re nothing but an ant. I really don’t know what gave you the courage to challenge me. Since that’s the case, I’ll let you see the real gap between Heavenly Rank Perfection and Heavenly Rank Early Stage!"

The black-robed man sneered coldly, his face filled with scorn.

Perhaps it was because he didn’t take Chen Feng seriously at all.

He didn’t even bother to stand up; he remained seated in a cross-legged position.

Then he raised his right hand, pinching two fingers together, pointing at Chen Feng from a distance.

Instantly, a purple-black True Qi burst from his fingertips, coagulating into a True Qi Flying Arrow, shooting toward Chen Feng...
