Chapter 519: Not Die Not Rest!
Lu Muzhe was overjoyed, and quickly said to the person behind him.
"Please, sir, make a move!"
As soon as his words fell, that person flashed and arrived inside the house.
His gaze was very calm, but beneath the calm lay sharpness, like an undercurrent beneath still water.
He looked at the Qilin Guard scattered on the ground, his eyes showing no emotional fluctuation, as if he were looking at a pile of irrelevant things.
Then he looked at Jiang Feng and spoke lightly.
"Your skill is not ordinary; I, old man, have no intention of being your enemy."
"However…… this person is the pillar of my Qilin Guard; if he dies, you will forge an irreconcilable enmity with the Qilin Guard."
The old man paused, then continued.
"If you can release him, I can represent the Qilin Guard and withdraw from Jiangnan!"
As soon as those words were spoken, a hint of joy flashed across Xu Tong's face.
Her eyes lit up, and she hurriedly tried to persuade Jiang Feng to agree.
In her view, Jiang Feng was indeed strong, but the strength of the Qilin Guard was there to be seen.
The Empire's Southern Army, an elite force with masters as numerous as clouds, is not something a single person can oppose.
The person before us clearly holds a status far above these masked men, and could even be a figure of Qilin Guard commander level.
If we truly obtain his concession, from now on the Qilin Guard will no longer trouble Xiao Yan, and that would be the best solution.
Xu Tong opened her mouth, about to urge Jiang Feng.
But Jiang Feng let out a cold chuckle and said lightly.
"Can you make the Qilin Guard stop acting, and can you make that guy behind them stop acting?"
As soon as those words were spoken, the visitor fell silent at once.
His gaze flickered for a moment, his lips moved, wanting to speak but stopping.
He clearly knew that the Town Prefect would never cease.
Who is the Town Prefect?
He is the actual controller of the Southern Army, a core figure of the Linghu Family, and a major magnate of the entire empire.
His orders are never withdrawn.
Originally, when he came to Jiangnan today, the Town Prefect had already issued the order.
At any cost, Jiang Yan must be brought back.
If they fail, the Town Prefect will mobilize even more terrifying forces to descend upon Jiangnan.
But can he lay all this out to Jiang Feng?
No!
But given his status, he would not deign to lie to Jiang Feng.
Although he is working for others, he still has his own principles!
After a long silence, the old man let out a long sigh, and the wrinkles on his face seemed deeper.
"It seems you are determined to make things difficult for my Qilin Guard to the end."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Feng merely gave a scoff and replied coldly.
"Clearly it's you who refuse to give up, yet you want to put the blame on me."
He paused, his gaze turning even colder.
"Tell you, I, Jiang Feng, will not do the foolish thing of releasing a tiger back to the mountain."
"I have just one sentence: since you dared to come, you must be prepared to leave everything behind!"
His voice was not loud, but each word struck like a hammer on everyone's heart present.
Lu Muzhe's face turned as pale as paper, and his legs went weak.
What does that mean?
This guy even wants to kill this half-step Martial Saint!
Is this brat really that ferocious?
Xu Tong's face also changed—killing people of the Qilin Guard?
Even in the capital, those top nobles would hardly dare to be so arrogant!
"Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan, just what kind of terrifying boyfriend have you found!"
The old man, upon hearing this, also let out a cold snort.
His gaze turned sharp, and he shouted in a low voice.
"You have quite the big mouth!"
"I, Miao, have wandered the jianghu for so many years, yet I have never encountered such a reckless junior like you!"
The old man's aura instantly changed, like a sleeping beast suddenly awakening.
"If that's the case, then let's see the real skill in our hands!"
As soon as his words fell, the person immediately struck.
His right hand extended from his sleeve, palm turned, and a vast power surged from his palm.
In almost an instant, it enveloped Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng's expression changed slightly.
He felt as if he had been thrown into deep water, water all around, pressure from all sides.
Breathing became difficult, movements slowed, and even his thoughts grew somewhat sluggish.
Water Law!
This guy is actually also a half-step Martial Ancestor who has comprehended the Law Power!
Jiang Feng's gaze turned solemn, but the corner of his mouth slightly rose.
"Interesting."
His voice wasn't loud, but his tone carried a hint of excitement.
This is the first time he has encountered an opponent who also has mastered the Law Power.
The old man before him is different; his Water Law hasn't yet been fully perfected, but his level of comprehension is somewhat deeper than his.
If this guy could, using the Water Law, comprehend his own Dao, he could step into the Realm of Martial Ancestor!
Become among the empire's top experts!
But now… he is his own best training opportunity!
The old man saw Jiang Feng trapped by the Water Law, and the corner of his mouth curled into a smug smile.
"Young man, the Law Power isn't something only you know."
His voice carried a hint of mockery.
"I have comprehended the Water Law for thirty years, immersed myself half a lifetime; though I dare not say I've reached the pinnacle, I do have some insight. Today I'll let you see what true Law Power is!"
After the old man finished speaking, he simultaneously formed seals with both hands, and the power of the Water Law became even more intense.
Jiang Feng felt the water pressure around him growing greater, as if a great mountain pressed upon him, making even his bones creak.
But he did not panic.
He closed his eyes.
The old man saw Jiang Feng close his eyes, thought he had given up resistance, and the smile at the corner of his mouth deepened.
"Young man, admit defeat. You are not a match for this old man."
Jiang Feng did not answer.
His awareness sank into his body, perceiving the surrounding Water Law.
That power was soft and dense, like a net enveloping him from all directions.
But he quickly found a flaw in that net.
Any power has a flaw, and the Law Power is no exception.
Although the Water Law penetrates everywhere, its shortcoming is insufficient attack power, lacking explosiveness.
As long as he erupts with a force far beyond its limit in an instant, he can tear this net apart.
Jiang Feng opened his eyes, a flash of cold light passing through his gaze.
Suddenly, a terrifying aura burst from his body.
It was not the aura of a martial artist, nor that of Law Power, but Dragon Might.
Trapped Dragon Power.
A low dragon chant emanated from Jiang Feng's body, shaking the entire hall as it trembled.
That Water Law power, in the face of Dragon Might, was like encountering its nemesis and collapsed instantly.
The old man's face changed drastically, and his body involuntarily retreated several steps.
He looked at Jiang Feng, his eyes full of shock.
"Who... who exactly are you? What is this power?!"
