The Art of Chaotic Divinity-Chapter 136: Desperate Measures!

"Hmph!" Ouyang Rui exclaimed indignantly. "Grand Elder, resorting to such underhanded tactics just to secure the position of family heir—isn't it a bit too despicable?"

"Hahaha!" Grand Elder Ouyang Gong, furiously yet mockingly, turned to stare at Ling Feng. "I've meticulously prepared for this moment, and everything has gone according to my plan. But to think that today, it's you, an outsider, who has disrupted my plans!

"Success crowns kings and condemns losers. I accept that reality. However, even if I die today, I'll make sure to drag you down with me!" Ouyang Gong knew the rules of the Ouyang family; they would never tolerate him continuing as the grand elder. Therefore, this young man who had deprived him of everything could not be allowed to live.

"Kid, I'll kill you!" Ouyang Gong, driven to desperation, slapped his palm with full force, channeling all his inner energy, and then swung fiercely towards Ling Feng's chest!

Swish!

Ouyang Gong's figure surged forward like a bolt of lightning, catching everyone off guard.

"Uh-oh!"

"This is bad!"

Panic gripped the hearts of the onlookers, especially the elders of the Ouyang family. Their faces were drained of color.

Ling Feng was an esteemed divine imperial physician. If Ouyang Gong were to kill him in front of everyone, there was a strong likelihood that the entire Ouyang family would face the grim fate of being decimated by the imperial army.

No one could challenge the supreme authority of the empire!

Is Ouyang Gong intending to drag down the entire Ouyang family with his actions?

Although Ouyang Gong wasn't an exceptional martial artist, he possessed the strength of a peak Pulse Formation Realm. Could Ling Feng, despite his extraordinary talent and prowess, withstand Ouyang Gong's full-force attack, considering he was merely a martial artist in the Qi Formation Realm?

Only Lin Xian'er truly understood Ling Feng's strength, recognizing his ability to effortlessly overpower even formidable opponents like Jing Wuxue. In comparison, the grand elder of the Ouyang family was only marginally stronger than Jing Wuxue.

In the audience, Jia Lang's eyes gleamed with intense excitement. "Haha, that's it! Finish him off! Kill that kid! Dare to challenge me? Dare to steal my woman? Go to hell!"

To Jia Lang, Ouyang Yu was nothing more than a lackey. He didn't care about his fate. However, if Ouyang Gong could kill Ling Feng, he would be more than happy.

Ouyang Gong, striking out fiercely, had already closed in right before Ling Feng's eyes.

The surrounding elders of the Ouyang family were either too far away or caught off guard, unable to intervene in time to save Ling Feng.

"What's wrong? Feeling desperate?" Ling Feng stood firm, not dodging or avoiding, with a cold smirk plastered on his face.

His eyes brimmed with an icy, murderous aura so intense that even the enraged Ouyang Gong couldn't help but shiver.

"You're just a sniveling brat! Meet your end!" Ouyang Gong's furious bellow filled the air, "Fiery Battle Fist!"

That was Ouyang Gong's deadliest move, fueled by the anger of Ling Feng's thwarting of his plans. He had a deep-seated grudge demanding blood as payment!

"Ninth Form of the The Ninefold Ocean-Guarding Fist, Azure Dragon Subdues the Vast Sea!"

With a resounding shout that echoed through the entire appraisal hall, everyone could faintly hear the roar of a dragon. Then, a pressure akin to being at the bottom of the vast sea swept over.

Bang!

A figure was sent flying, crashing heavily into a nearby stone pillar before rebounding and crashing onto the ground.

The figure sprawled on the ground was none other than Ouyang Gong!

"You! You! ——Pffft!"

Struggling to rise, Ouyang Gong pointed ahead, his pupils dilating as he spat out a mouthful of blood before losing consciousness.

"Hmph, since I'm feeling generous today, I'll spare your life. However, despite my mercy, your crimes are unforgivable! Your dantian and Qihai are utterly destroyed. You'll never cultivate again in this lifetime!"

With a proud stance atop the appraisal platform, Ling Feng exuded a cold and stern demeanor, reminiscent of an unparalleled god of death!

Underneath the stage, a deathly silence prevailed, with not a sound to be heard.

Every onlooker's eyes widened in sheer disbelief as they witnessed Ling Feng's actions.

After a prolonged moment, a wave of commotion, or rather a huge uproar, burst forth!

"No... this can't be true?"

"Dear heavens, he effortlessly defeated Ouyang Gong with a single move!"

"Remarkable! Unbeatable!"

The expressions of astonishment echoed persistently. Ouyang Rui, Liu Xudong, and the other Ouyang family appraisers, both young and old, were left bewildered on the platform.

A mere Qi Formation Realm cultivator effortlessly defeated an opponent at the peak Pulse Formation Realm – with just a single punch!

What kind of monster was this? Such a terrifying being!

Lin Xian'er's eyes shimmered with amazement. Despite having witnessed it once before, seeing Ling Feng's prowess in action again filled her with astonishment.

Jia Lang, the second son of the Jia family who had threatened Ling Feng, sat frozen in his chair, as if he had seen a ghost.

"This can't be real. I must be dreaming. It must be a dream!"

If Ling Feng could defeat Ouyang Gong in an instant, does it mean he could effortlessly one-shot me too?

Good heavens, this must be a dreadful nightmare!

Jia Lang felt his legs trembling uncontrollably. Even if he had three hundred times the courage, he wouldn't dare to be brash in front of Ling Feng.

"I-I must retreat... I need to return home and contemplate further..."

Quivering, Jia Lang stealthily slipped out through the back door while no one was watching.

He had to go back home and assemble a few experts from the Transformation Realm before he could summon the confidence to confront Ling Feng again.

...

On the appraisal stage, someone finally regained consciousness.

Ouyang Yu rushed to his father's side, his face filled with sorrow, and began wailing loudly, "Father, Father!"

The ups and downs of life culminate in moments like this.

Just a moment ago, he was preparing to become the family heir, and now his father not only lost his status but also became a cripple. From now on, Ouyang Yu's fate could be easily imagined.

Those from the main branch would never allow him, the bane of their family, to remain alive.

Ouyang Jing also reacted at that moment, darting to Ling Feng's side in a single step and dropping to his knees before him. "Master Ling Feng, thank you, thank you so much!"

Continuing to kneel and express his gratitude, he incessantly kowtowed. Without Ling Feng's assistance, today's outcome would have been sealed, leaving him with absolutely no chance of turning things around.

"What are you thanking me for?" Ling Feng grabbed Ouyang Jing's arm. "A man should only kneel to his parents and mentors, not to the heavens and earth!"

As Ling Feng spoke, he patted Ouyang Jing's shoulder and whispered through Covert Sound Transmission, "Don't mention anything about my previous guidance to you. Understand?"

Ouyang Jing paused for a moment, then nodded slightly, before rising from the ground and bowing deeply to Ling Feng. "Master Ling Feng, may I have the honor of being your disciple?"

"Become my disciple?" Ling Feng rolled his eyes. "I'm not older than you. Let's skip the disciple part."

"Uh..." Ouyang Jing's face showed a hint of embarrassment.

Ling Feng gave a faint smile. "Let's skip the formalities. If you don't mind, you can just call me 'big brother.'"

"I'm Little Brother Ouyang Jing, paying respects to Big Brother!"

Ouyang Jing immediately changed how he addressed Ling Feng without hesitation and then bowed respectfully.
