It might be He Ruoshui’s attention towards Chu Feng that displeased the strabismus-eyed youth in his heart.
"He’s just a good-for-nothing, a glance at him is even too polluting for my eyes. He only got into the Sect because, as Elder Yang said, he relied on being somewhat smart and resorted to despicable methods."
"Junior Sister He, let’s hurry and leave!"
In front of everyone, Lin Yuan insulted Chu Feng by calling him a good-for-nothing, showing utmost disdain in his words.
"If I’m a good-for-nothing, what does that make you? A pee bucket or a dung bucket? Anyway, you’re clearly inferior even to this good-for-nothing."
"Don’t forget, in the assessment ranking, I’m still above you."
Chu Feng, even while eating, got insulted and could no longer restrain his temper. He immediately retorted.
This strabismus-eyed youth, who had snatched his red flag in the Sword Testing Forest, had not yet settled the score. Over and over, he disregarded Chu Feng as a person, trampling on Chu Feng’s dignity, and insulting Chu Feng’s character.
There’s a limit to what one can bear.
If he stayed silent any longer, they might think Chu Feng was easy to bully.
"You... you trash without even sword meridians, dare to be so presumptuous in front of me? Believe it or not, one sword strike could end you?" In the presence of his girlfriend, the strabismus-eyed youth, being counter-cursed by Chu Feng, immediately flared up like a cat whose tail was stepped on.
Furious beyond measure, he looked fiercely as if he wanted to fight Chu Feng.
"End me? The life-death arena awaits you outside!"
"Just one question, you piece of dung, do you dare or not?"
Chu Feng, who could defeat even a Great Sword Master, could easily take down an Intermediate Sword Master.
This strabismus-eyed youth named Lin Yuan, though strong, was simply no match in front of Chu Feng.
Initially, Chu Feng was not even planning to bother with what happened in the Sword Testing Forest.
Now that the other party had dared to defecate and urinate on his head, there was no need to remain polite; just directly teach him a lesson. It would also prevent others who can’t see clearly from provoking him constantly in his presence.
Intimidated by Chu Feng’s icy glare, and recalling how Chu Feng had defeated that tall, thin arrogant youth in front of him with just a move,
and Chu Feng had also killed quite a few in the Sword Testing Forest.
Lin Yuan was instantly intimidated on the spot.
Especially when Chu Feng actively suggested going to the life-death arena, it scared Lin Yuan so much his heart trembled.
"Hmph, I can’t be bothered to argue with someone about to die! Talk again when you come back alive from the Fiery Flame Cave!" Lin Yuan found an excuse to back down, as he truly lacked the courage to face Chu Feng in the life-death arena.
He didn’t have the guts.
With a cold shout from Chu Feng, Lin Yuan’s face turned pale, but he didn’t dare to utter another word and slunk away dejectedly.
After eating his fill, Chu Feng returned to his dormitory and slept soundly.
The next day he woke up feeling refreshed and rejuvenated, all his previous fatigue swept away.
Someone was fiercely knocking outside, or rather, it would be more appropriate to say banging on the door.
"Who is it? Coming, coming!" Chu Feng quickly jumped down from the bed and ran to open the door.
Opening the door, he saw a young man donned in a black Advanced Level Disciple Robe, followed by four young men in gray ordinary disciple robes, all with cold expressions.
"May I know what brings these senior brothers here?" Being of lower status and strength, Chu Feng politely inquired.
"We are here by the order of Steward Mu Kun, to urge you to immediately go to the Fiery Flame Cave to handle an abnormal phenomenon inside."
The leading advanced-level disciple said coldly.
Chu Feng glanced at the token on the person’s waist, which read "Advanced Level Disciple, Ma Miao."
How eager must Steward Mu Kun be for my death? In less than a day, he sent someone to forcibly push me towards the Fiery Flame Cave.
Ma Miao’s eyes bore an unfriendly command.
Not far behind this group of people stood two middle-aged men, radiating a chilling aura. Although they were also dressed in Advanced Level Disciple Robes, they wore conspicuous red armbands on their arms.
The armbands read "Law Enforcement."
It seems that these two middle-aged men belong to the Law Enforcement Hall.
The Law Enforcement Hall represents the Ten Thousand Sword Sect’s legal dignity and authority, and each disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall is one in a hundred—a master among masters.
Some Direct Disciples even hold positions in the Law Enforcement Hall.
Very few dare to confront the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall.
"Heh, Steward Mu Kun really went out of his way to kill me. If I don’t follow you, I suppose those two Law Enforcement Hall experts will immediately arrest me or execute me on the spot, right?"
Chu Feng said with a sarcastic expression, offering no resistance as he followed the group away from his residing peak.
"Good that you understand!" Ma Miao and the others watched Chu Feng closely from behind, each pressing their hand on the hilt of their swords, wearing unfriendly expressions.
The Fiery Flame Cave is located in the notorious Fiery Flame Peak, said to be an active volcano erupting approximately every hundred years.
Since the establishment of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect here, they dispatch people every year to specifically monitor the activity of Fiery Flame Peak.
Especially in the Fiery Flame Cave, which leads into the interior of the mountain, allowing a clearer and more direct observation of the Earth Flames conditions within the Fiery Flame Peak.
If the Earth fire and Flame Magma inside the Fiery Flame Peak were to erupt, it could cause immense harm to the entire Ten Thousand Sword Sect. It could even possibly burn the entire Sect to ashes.
The best method is to suppress the Earth fire and Flame Magma inside if there is any unusual activity before it erupts.
Or direct it into the pre-built Magma Conduits Caverns.
Indeed, with the strength of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect, it would be entirely possible to destroy the Fiery Flame Peak, thereby preventing future issues.
But it cannot be done because the Fiery Flame Peak is extremely important to the Ten Thousand Sword Sect.
Not only can the Earth fire within the peak be utilized for alchemy and sword casting, but the abundant Fire Spiritual Power of the Fiery Flame Peak also helps the Sect disciples cultivate the Fire Element Sword Vein more quickly and efficiently.
The famous ultimate technique of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect, Fiery Flame Slash, must be cultivated with the Earth fire from within the Fiery Flame Peak.
Chu Feng hadn’t even approached the giant peak ahead when he felt waves of fiery heat wave hitting his face.
Even from a kilometer away, it was already so intensely hot; what would it be like inside the Fiery Flame Cave within the peak? Wouldn’t it instantly turn someone into ashes?
"Hehe, it’s just the heat now, wait till you get inside the Fiery Flame Cave, it will definitely be even more exhilarating!"
Ma Miao and several others sneered with ill intentions.
They escorted Chu Feng to the foot of the mountain, each wiping the sweat beading on their foreheads continuously, drenched in sweat.
It was really too hot, even Ma Miao, with his Great Sword Master cultivation, could hardly bear the scorching heat emitted from the Fiery Flame Peak.
Not to mention the ordinary disciples, each with red faces and eyes filled with terror.
"Chu Feng, do you see that cavern on the mountainside? That is the notorious Fiery Flame Cave. Go inside and carefully check for any anomalies, and handle them accordingly. This booklet contains detailed methods to deal with it!"
Even Ma Miao, with his Great Sword Master cultivation, did not dare step on the Fiery Flame Peak personally.
He handed Chu Feng a manual on how to handle the disturbances in the Fiery Flame Cave and stood watching Chu Feng from the base of the peak, without going up himself.
