Yang Fei is a person who holds grudges.
If someone is good to him, he can remember it for a lifetime, but if someone is hypocritical or lacks righteousness towards him, he can see it clearly and choose to stay away from such people, never sincerely considering them as friends.
So in front of everyone, he did not give Helian Zhan and Ouyang He any face, directly revealing their betrayal of the Divine Land in the past.
Helian Zhan furrowed his brow and looked at Yang Fei, saying, "It was inevitable for Heaven and the Penglai Realm to join forces against the Divine Land. If we, the Hidden Sect influences, didn’t leave the Great Divine Continent, we would have had to vie for power and profit with you all — causing internal conflict instead.
By stepping out of the Divine Land, we each developed overseas in pursuit of the freedom we desired.
Meanwhile, our very existence still posed a threat to Heaven and the Penglai Realm. When they attacked you, part of their forces was diverted to deal with us. Had we not drawn some firepower too, the allied enemies attacking the Yunwu Mountain’s Base wouldn’t have been just a handful."
Helian Rong, worried about Yang Fei’s relationship with her father and master becoming strained, hurriedly said, "Yes, Yang Fei, we were also attacked by enemies overseas."
Wang Chunyang chimed in, "That’s right. We left the Divine Land not because we wanted to bow down to the mundane powers of the Divine Land, but because we wished to live freely as we used to in the hidden sect.
As for the mission to protect the Yanhuang Nation, us cultivators of the Hidden Sect would never dare forget. Last time when Heaven and the Penglai Realm attacked the Divine Land, we received some intel and prepared to assist, but then enemies sent strong ones to harass and raid us, so we couldn’t go.
But from another perspective, by staying overseas, our few families can also be seen as having restrained part of the enemy forces, otherwise, there would have been more experts heading to the Yunwu Mountain’s Base."
Yang Fei slightly frowned.
He hadn’t expected Wang Chunyang, who had already chosen to surrender to him, to still speak up for Helian Zhan and Ouyang He.
The problem is that their words left him without a rebuttal at that moment.
Different positions lead to different choices.
If it were him, wouldn’t he also have been willing to bow to others? At that time, he wasn’t undefeatable to these old strong cultivators of the Hidden Sect. Who would want to submit to a brat younger than even their grandchildren or great-grandchildren?
The most crucial point is that they also had to be constrained by the "Martial Artist Act" issued by the Divine Land.
Compared to the freedom they had in the Hidden Sect, such restrictions were truly suffocating.
Now that Earth has entered the Cultivation Era, cultivators generally pursue the path to longevity, but in reality, what they pursue is freedom and ease.
If they can’t have freedom and ease, what’s the point of longevity?
Thoughts flashed through his mind like lightning, and although Yang Fei still felt a bit unhappy, he truly couldn’t hate these people.
Moreover, the current situation on Earth demands uniting as many people as possible and growing quickly.
Suppressing his displeasure, he said, "Forget it, everything is in the past. You have your survival rules, your right to pursue freedom, I won’t hold it against you."
Wang Chunyang nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this.
Although he was defeated by Yang Fei and sincerely admired Yang Fei’s current combat power and realm, his proud nature made it difficult to willingly submit to Yang Fei.
Now Yang Fei could understand their choice and spoke words of no resentment, which demonstrated a certain level of understanding and magnanimity, greatly easing his mind and making him feel even if the Langya Wang Family submitted to this person, future days wouldn’t be too bad.
Helian Zhan and Ouyang He, however, softly scoffed in secret, thinking, "You still want to hold it against us?"
This kid really thinks he’s the top boss in the world, wanting to control everyone and have everyone act according to his wishes.
Duanmu Wugou quietly transmitted a message to Duanmu Lingfeng, "Lingfeng, the situation is not right, we need to leave."
Duanmu Lingfeng isn’t stupid; based on the scene, he’s already realized the situation is off. The grandfather and grandson quietly turned their horses and retreated.
However, at this moment, Yang Fei’s gaze locked onto both of them, loudly saying, "Duanmu Wugou, you think you can escape after encountering me?"
Duanmu Wugou shouted low, paying no mind to Yang Fei, whipping the horse’s rump, and galloped away.
"Do you think you can escape?"
Yang Fei snorted coldly and once again showcased his astonishing instant teleportation ability in public.
The crowd only heard a series of super-sonic booming sounds while piercing through the sky.
Even with their eye power, they couldn’t see how Yang Fei was flying; they only saw Yang Fei disappear from place to place, appearing dozens of meters away the next instant, disappearing again, and then flashing again dozens of meters away.
This kind of instant teleportation created a visual effect as if a shadow was continuously flashing, leaping dozens of meters in the void.
It was the first time Helian Zhan and others saw Yang Fei’s teleportation ability, they were stunned with their mouths agape, while a strong crisis sense emerged in their hearts.
Even though the Langya Wang Family had seen Yang Fei’s teleportation methods before, they were still shocked at seeing it again.
Previously, when Yang Fei attacked Wang Chunyang, he only used a single instant teleportation, but now, he was doing it continuously.
Although each teleportation distance wasn’t long, his ability to instantaneously teleport was unexpectedly beyond everyone’s imagination.
Everyone instinctively put themselves in Duanmu Wugou’s position.
If they were Duanmu Wugou, could they escape from Yang Fei’s hands?
There was only one answer.
The speed of such teleportation was just too fast, beyond their understanding and cognition.
They were still relying on external forces to sprint, and breaking through the sky, crossing space was already the limit.
However, he directly ignored the constraints of the space law, crossing spatial distances and playing with instant teleportation.
He wasn’t an opponent on the same level at all.
In just two breaths of time, Yang Fei had caught up with Duanmu Wugou.
His body suddenly appeared directly in front of Duanmu Wugou and Duanmu Lingfeng.
Duanmu Wugou and Duanmu Lingfeng had only heard the sounds of rupture through the sky coming from behind them. Although they knew Yang Fei was pursuing them, how could they expect Yang Fei to be so fast and be able to instantly surpass them?
So when Yang Fei suddenly flashed in front of them, both were shocked.
A cold light flashed in Duanmu Wugou’s eyes as he decisively used Divine Thought to strike towards Yang Fei.
Yang Fei laughed out loud, waving the Soul Binding Rope in his hand.
Duanmu Wugou thus effectively ran straight into the trap, and his Divine Soul was instantly captured by the Soul Binding Rope.
The body, having lost its Divine Soul Consciousness, fell softly from the horse, face-first into the mud.
Duanmu Lingfeng was aghast, pulling the reins to halt the horse in terror, rushing toward Duanmu Wugou’s fallen body, picking him up.
Yang Fei flashed again, grabbing Duanmu Lingfeng, and returned at high speed.
Though Duanmu Lingfeng was an Innate Realm expert, compared to the present Yang Fei, he didn’t stand a chance.
The crowd at the scene, seeing how easily Duanmu Wugou, a former top-tier expert from the Hidden Sect, was subdued by Yang Fei, gasped collectively.
The people of the Langya Wang Family had once again gained a whole new understanding of Yang Fei’s strength.
As for Helian Zhan, Ouyang He, Zhao Wannian, and Helian Rong, they were left dumbfounded, staring incredulously at Yang Fei, each questioning if they just saw things wrong. Thıs text ıs hosted at 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵⚑𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮⚑𝓷𝓮𝓽
Duanmu Wugou was absolutely not a weakling. How could he appear so vulnerable in front of Yang Fei?
