The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 221: Defying the Heavens

The breakfast at the Wus’ was a cheerful affair, especially with Wu Xiaofei’s father, Wu Zhifang, and her uncle Wu Kunming showing such warm enthusiasm towards Ye Chenfeng!

Originally, on the first day of the lunar new year, the relatives from the Wus’ side would also come over to pay a New Year’s visit, but the old master Wu had declined all of them. The reason was simple: those relatives from the Wus’ side did not approve of Wu Xiaofei’s marriage to Ye Chenfeng, believing that marrying Wu Xiaofei to an idiot from the Yes would bring no benefit to the future development of the Wus.

If the relatives from the Wus’ had come over today and encountered Ye Chenfeng, even though they were suppressed by the old master Wu, they would still have made a few sarcastic remarks. If a conflict arose and the marriage between Ye Chenfeng and Wu Xiaofei fell through, the old master Wu would regret it to death.

"Chenfeng, stay here and have dinner before you go back today! You and Xiaofei should chat more, and you can also take a walk in the villa’s back garden, the scenery there is still pretty good," Wu Zhifang, who was usually not one to joke, said with a smile.

Behind the Wus’ villa was a vast space the size of more than a football field, filled with all types of flowers and plants. In the very center stood a pavilion with a stone table and four stone chairs. Directly in front of the pavilion was a small pond, with water so clear that one could see the fish swimming.

Wu Xiaofei took Ye Chenfeng into the pavilion and sat down. She had not noticed it when there were more people around, but now, alone with Ye Chenfeng, her cheeks couldn’t help but turn red, and her heartbeat quickened uncontrollably. Her hands, tightly clutching each other, were sweating despite the cold winter weather.

If it had been in the past, Wu Xiaofei would have been just as casual in front of Ye Chenfeng, often acting like a big sister, lecturing her useless little brother every now and then. But now things were different; Ye Chenfeng had become her fiancé, and she had truly fallen for the boy she once viewed as her little brother.

Ye Chenfeng sat in the stone chair, comfortably stretching his limbs, breathing in the fresh air of the back garden, a leisurely life he would not even dare to dream of in his past life.

In the past, whenever Wu Xiaofei and Ye Chenfeng met, they had endless things to talk about. Why had Wu Xiaofei become so quiet today? Curiously, Ye Chenfeng turned his head and saw his Xiaofei with her head down, cheeks flushed with pink, so different from his sister. His mind couldn’t help but replay the kissing scene with Wu Xiaofei from last night. If it hadn’t been for the sudden ringing of Wu Xiaofei’s phone, Ye Chenfeng might have actually gone through with it right there!

Ye Chenfeng was not someone who was particularly dense when it came to feelings. Seeing his boisterous sister Xiaofei turn into a delicate and gentle woman in front of him, he thought, "Could it be that Xiaofei actually has feelings for me? Otherwise, she wouldn’t have kissed me last night. Sigh~, during the times when I was afflicted with panic disorder, she never left my side, and whenever I was bullied as a child, it was always her standing up for me. I absolutely cannot let her be sad!"

Ye Chenfeng found that since his rebirth, despite everything else being more or less the same, his romantic life was a complete mess! Little Tang Xin was devoted to him, and Zhao Wanting was the first woman he met after his rebirth, and now there was Wu Xiaofei. This gave Ye Chenfeng an immense headache.

"Xiaofei, do you really want to get engaged to me? Do you really like me?" Ye Chenfeng asked, looking at Wu Xiaofei.

At his words, Wu Xiaofei raised her head, her eyes brimming with tender affection, her cheeks flushing even redder as she retorted coquettishly, "Chenfeng, didn’t I say not to call me ’sister Xiaofei’ anymore? Just Xiaofei is fine. Also, you really are as dumb as a pig."

Wu Xiaofei was huffy, expecting her to admit her feelings for Ye Chenfeng in front of him was like forcing her to burrow into a hole out of embarrassment! She is a woman, after all! When genuinely facing her feelings, even the most forthright woman becomes shy in front of the man she likes, not to mention that for all these years, she and Ye Chen had been brother and sister!

"Plop," a sound came.

In the pond right in front of the pavilion, a carp suddenly leaped out of the water, causing a few splashes in mid-air before falling back into the pond.

"Plop, plop, plop..." One by one, the carps in the pond jumped out of the water, following each other in a strangely orderly manner as if they were queued up.

This unusual spectacle caught the attention of Ye Chenfeng and Wu Xiaofei. Wu Xiaofei often sat in the back garden, but she had never seen such a scene before.

Ye Chenfeng’s pitch-black eyes stared, unblinking, at the carps leaping out of the water. Suddenly, he felt the Soul Force inside his body start to circulate involuntarily with the rhythm of the carps’ movements.

"What’s going on?" The changes within his body made Ye Chenfeng feel puzzled.

Soul Force surged out of his body, flying toward the pond. Shortly after, the speed at which each carp leapt out of the water began to accelerate, water droplets splashed into the air, forming a breathtakingly beautiful scene.

As the carps sped up with every leap, Ye Chenfeng’s Soul Force would surge dramatically, "thump-thump, thump..." The frequency of his heartbeat increased steadily, and soon, the sound of his heartbeat and the sound of the carps jumping from the water’s surface resonated perfectly.

After reaching the Sixth Level, further enhancement of Soul Force could no longer rely solely on medicines. Breakthroughs could only come from limit-stretching carnage or moments of enlightenment.

Typically, individuals would opt for limit-stretching killings after the Sixth Level because entering a state of enlightenment was extremely difficult. In his past life, Ye Chenfeng had only broken through to the Eighth Level by enduring such carnage. He never imagined the rhythm of carps leaping out of the water would resonate with his own Soul Force, plunging him into a state of enlightenment.

Wu Xiaofei didn’t notice anything amiss with Ye Chenfeng; her gaze was completely captivated by the scene before her.

At the entrance of the back garden, the Wu family’s patriarch had just returned from a meeting, intending to meet Ye Chenfeng, only to stumble upon this bizarre sight.

Wu Zhifang, Wu Kunming, and Wu Jie, standing beside the old master, were equally dumbstruck, their eyes staring blankly at the carps leaping from the pond, struggling to comprehend the spectacle.

One minute, two minutes... ten minutes passed. As time went on, the carps leaped from the water at such a speed that all one could see was a blur.

Of course, this speed was not something the carps could achieve on their own. At first, it was the resonance between Ye Chenfeng’s internal Soul Force and the carps leaping that started it all, but then Ye Chenfeng’s Soul Force burst forth, taking active control over the speed at which each carp leaped out of the pond. Otherwise, why would the carps keep springing out of the water, getting faster and faster?

Ye Chenfeng’s Soul Force rose in powerful surges, his face flushed red, and a glint of light flashed across his eyes. His Sixth Level Peak Soul Force was at the brink of a breakthrough.

"Bang, bang, bang..." Explosions resonated through the Wus’ back garden as Ye Chenfeng’s Sixth Level Soul Force broke through to the Seventh Level in an instant.

Fierce waves of energy dispersed in all directions, the entire roof of the pavilion was torn off, massive splashes erupted from the pond, and huge craters appeared on the ground. Countless flowers and plants were annihilated in an instant.

The transition from Sixth Level to Seventh Level Soul Force marks a distinct boundary. Previously, advancement could be aided by medicines, but beyond the Sixth Level, it had to be achieved through carnage and enlightenment only. Naturally, with each level gained after the Sixth, Soul Force would increase dramatically. Having just advanced, it was inevitable that Ye Chenfeng couldn’t fully contain his Soul Force, which caused the devastating destruction of the Wus’ back garden. frёeweɓηovel_coɱ

At the garden’s entrance, the Wus had been captivated by the scene of the carps leaping. Who could have anticipated such a sudden and bizarre change? Dust filled the back garden, their hair and clothes dirtied with mud, and the carps that had been in the pond were now blown outside, motionless as if they were all dead.

The patriarch panted heavily, peering through the dusty air at the fuzzy silhouette of Ye Chenfeng in the pavilion. He knew that this chaos must be Ye Chenfeng’s doing, but the level of destruction was alarmingly unprecedented. It was comparable to a small bomb. He murmured to himself, "This is defying the heavens, defying the heavens. Could it be that Chenfeng is really going to defy the heavens?" (To be continued.
