"Steward Meng, the decision-making power is yours!"
"The opportunity is only once. If you want Little Fei to possess the Battle God Sacred Body, then bring him to my guest room."
Noticing the extremely anxious Meng Tangyu beside him, Ye Feng directly handed this manual labor over to him.
"Steward Meng, no! I don't want it!"
"If Father finds out I possess such a powerful physique, he'll definitely force me to fight every day! That kind of life will drive me mad!"
Watching Meng Tangyu walk towards him step by step, Huang Xiaofei pleaded with a terrified expression.
"Let go of me! Steward Meng, quickly let go of me! I don't want the Battle God Sacred Body!"
Ye Feng stood in the corridor on the second floor, watching the livid-faced Meng Tangyu carry the frantically struggling Huang Xiaofei upstairs. He felt extremely fortunate for the decision he made just now; otherwise, this hard work would have been his.
Inside the guest room.
"No! No!"
Huang Xiaofei watched as a fragment radiating bizarre power appeared in Ye Feng's hand. He felt like he was going mad, but because his body was being firmly pressed down by Meng Tangyu, he was completely unable to move!
One fragment!
Ten fragments!
Fifty fragments!
...
After an unknown amount of time, when Huang Xiaofei had fused the power of all ten thousand Battle God Sacred Body fragments, his entire body unexpectedly became suffused with a dazzling golden radiance! At the same time, a terrifying aura as if from desolate antiquity erupted violently, instantly sweeping across the entire town!
Although that terrifying aura flashed and vanished, it caused everyone in the entire town to be immersed in endless terror at that moment.
A desolate space, the earth already dyed blood-red!
The ground was littered everywhere with mangled remains – humans, Yao Beasts, and corpses of unknown beings!
Not far away, atop a mountain of corpses formed from countless bodies, stood a man covered in blood, roaring towards the sky. The countless bone-deep wounds on his body alone were enough to strike fear into the heart of anyone who saw them!
Just then, a spatial rift that seemed to tear the firmament abruptly appeared. Countless Yao Beasts, unknown beings, and armies of the Human race poured out frantically from the spatial rift.
"Fight! Fight! Fight!"
Low and deep voices mixed with excitement came from the man's mouth. As a dazzling golden light suffused his entire body, the man pulled out the blood-soaked battle saber stuck into the mountain of corpses beside him and charged directly towards the countless enemies in the distance.
As the man's figure grew more distant, Huang Xiaofei's figure appeared increasingly closer in the vision of Ye Feng and Meng Tangyu, as if the two had personally witnessed the inheritance of a generation's Battle God!
Huff! Huff! Huff!
When the two recovered their senses from the illusion just now, they both began taking large, heavy breaths.
"System! Damn your grandpa! You call this a worthless physique?!"
Ye Feng cursed the System inwardly at this moment. In his eyes, this Battle God Sacred Body was freaking awesome beyond measure!
"Battle God Sacred Body! Such a terrifying Battle God Sacred Body! If the Young Master doesn't change himself, he simply isn't worthy of possessing this Battle God Sacred Body!"
Meng Tangyu stared fixedly at Huang Xiaofei, having made an extremely crazy decision in his heart!
Gulp!
And Huang Xiaofei, knowing nothing, looked at the terrifying gazes the two directed at him, couldn't help but swallow hard, feeling greatly uneasy!
"Ding! Congratulations Host for spending all of today's Prodigal Items. Reward: 1,000 Prodigal Points! Bonus Reward: Ninth Grade Ninth Rank Yin Yang Bewildering Formation Flag * 3!"
Ninth Grade Ninth Rank Yin Yang Bewildering Formation Flag: Release one point of Spiritual Power to activate the Formation Flag. Can immediately deploy the Yin Yang Bewildering Formation capable of trapping Peak Ninth Level Tribulation Crossing Realm experts. Duration ten hours. Single-use consumable.
"Huh!"
"This reward isn't bad! Just right, needing three days to reach the Star Soul Sect. With these Formation Flags, I can sleep well every night without worrying about being disturbed."
Although these Formation Flags would definitely be one of the powerful trump cards in anyone else's hands, for the prodigal Divine Magnate Ye Feng, being able to use these flags while sleeping at night was already giving great face to these Ninth Grade Ninth Rank Formation Flags.
"Brother Ye, is it over?"
"Why don't I feel anything?"
"But let me say first, no matter how powerful this Battle God Sacred Body is, if it's buried in my hands, don't blame me. I said I didn't want it."
After moving around his body again and still not feeling anything unusual, Huang Xiaofei quickly said to Ye Feng.
"It won't be!"
"After we escort Young Master Ye back to the sect, I will request from the President to personally guide you!"
"From now on, every battle I guide you through will be a life-and-death battle! If you don't fight me with all your might, I will absolutely not hold back! If you die, this subordinate will accompany you!"
Hearing these cold words, both Ye Feng and Huang Xiaofei looked at the expressionless Meng Tangyu with disbelief!
"Little Fei, good luck! Steward Meng is definitely not joking. And you'll never know what the two of us just witnessed."
Patting Huang Xiaofei's shoulder, Ye Feng directly left the guest room. He understood the decision Meng Tangyu made, because the scene they witnessed earlier was truly too awe-inspiring.
Ten minutes later, Meng Tangyu led Ye Feng and Huang Xiaofei out of the town, once again heading towards the Star Soul Sect.
One day passed in the blink of an eye. As night fell, because they didn't see any towns nearby, they could only find a spacious place to rest on the spot.
Ye Feng didn't know what Meng Tangyu said to Huang Xiaofei after he left, but throughout this day, Huang Xiaofei became exceptionally quiet. No one knew what exactly he was thinking.
"Steward Meng, start guiding me now."
Just as Ye Feng lay down on the spirit stone bed he built, preparing to rest, Huang Xiaofei, who had been silent all day, finally spoke.
What's going on?
Didn't he strongly resist before?
How come he changed after just one day?
Looking at the serious Huang Xiaofei, Ye Feng suddenly felt like the other had tricked him out of the Battle God Sacred Body.
But the System gave a reward, which was proof enough that giving the Battle God Sacred Body to Huang Xiaofei indeed counted as a prodigal act. So Ye Feng was now very curious: what exactly made Huang Xiaofei make this decision?
"Forget it!"
Ye Feng originally wanted to use the Peeking into Heavenly Secrets Function to know this secret, but ultimately gave up. If he knew everything, it would be too boring.
Peng! Peng! Peng!
Watching the two wield battle sabers and directly start fighting, Ye Feng casually took out a Formation Flag. After releasing a trace of Spiritual Qi to activate the Formation Flag, he looked at the black Formation Flag that flew directly overhead and muttered to himself, "You fight yours, I'll sleep mine. With the Formation Flag here, no one will disturb us."
Saying this, Ye Feng took out another hundred Nine-Patterned Blood Ginseng Pills and placed them aside, then lay down on the spirit stone bed and fell asleep.
What the three didn't know was that a gray-robed¹ elder was currently rushing towards their location at full speed. Barring accidents, he would arrive at their location in a few minutes.
