"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect my little husband to be so impressive, it's making me a bit...!"

Lu Ziqi charmingly said, originally just to disgust Gao Yuanyuan, but now she was really a bit interested in this Bai Yutang.

Gao Yuanyuan also relaxed her eyebrows.

In fact, she was a bit apprehensive too, as Lin Xiong was famous from an early age, and his reputation in the Outer Sect was unparalleled for a time.

After all, the three people before Lin Xiong were not stronger than him, but rather they were older and had long given up on advancing further, managing the various affairs of the Mountain Villa's Outer Sect as managers.

Lin Xiong could have continued to fight upwards, but even if he became number one, it wouldn't have any benefits, instead, he would have to spend a lot of time and energy managing various Outer Sect affairs.

So Lin Xiong just gave those three face and took fourth place on the Fengyun List.

In return, the three would always help Lin Xiong whenever asked, which allowed Lin Ao, Lin Xiong's younger brother, to walk freely in the Outer Sect.

Gao Yuanyuan was a bit uncertain when she sent the Solid God Pill yesterday, and today she came in person, intending to intervene at the critical moment.

She wanted Bai Yutang to display the strength he should have, as Bai Yutang was previously unknown in the Outer Sect, with a reputation only for his pretty face.

This reputation even reached her master's ears, and when she reported to her master to take Bai Yutang as a disciple, her master stared at her for a long time and asked if the rumors outside were true.

At that time, Gao Yuanyuan felt somewhat ashamed and angry, not expecting something she was too lazy to explain to spread so widely.

So when Lin Xiong challenged Bai Yutang, she didn't intervene but tacitly accepted it.

Unexpectedly, this younger brother exceeded her expectations.

Lin Xiong knelt down.

Obviously, Bai Yutang won this duel, and being able to defeat Lin Xiong of the Outer Sect meant her master wouldn't have anything to say.

Li Feng looked at the kneeling Lin Xiong, thinking, did this guy get his brain turned into tofu from that hit just now and end up a vegetable?

As he was thinking.

Li Feng suddenly sensed something unusual; a wave of spiritual power dispersed out.

"Succeeded?"

Li Feng's telekinesis mixed within this dispersing spiritual power, giving him a sense of dual vision, as if he was attached to Lin Xiong.

He was observing everything around him from Lin Xiong's perspective, naturally through spiritual perception.

This was just as Li Wenlong described.

When he was opening the Divine Acupoint, Li Wenlong's spiritual power was mixed in, allowing him to see everything Li Feng saw.

This state lasted only briefly before Lin Xiong began to gather his dispersing spiritual power. Clearly, compared to the novice Li Feng, Lin Xiong's understanding of spiritual power was far superior, since the Lin Family had studied this path for hundreds of years.

Lin Xiong was not only the fourth strongest in the Outer Sect but also the heir of the Lin Family's fourth branch, so he could naturally access some of the core teachings.

The traces of Li Feng's Divine Thought were quickly erased. Looking at Lin Xiong in front of him, he suddenly let out a long roar at the sky.

The collected spiritual power burst out, an invisible telekinesis instantly spreading, causing the bamboo leaves suspended in mid-air to suddenly become motionless.

The surrounding Outer Sect disciples felt as if they were gently touched by a hand, involuntarily shivering.

"Did Lin Xiong just break through?"

Gao Yuanyuan looked at the roaring Lin Xiong. Many years without a breakthrough, this was truly a culmination of accumulated strength, and his spiritual power was terrifying.

Lin Xiong was soaring high.

Beside him, Lu Ziqi also took a deep breath, blinking as she looked at Lin Xiong.

This was interesting.

Could it be that Lin Xiong felt humiliated and, in his wrath, broke through the Divine Acupoint?

"Senior Brother Lin opened his Divine Acupoint."

Someone seemed to snap back to reality, exclaiming.

"Hiss, now we have a good show to watch."

"Who just fawned over that Bai Yutang, huh? Humph, when has my Senior Brother Lin ever lost?"

Lin Ao was the most excited.

Lin Xiong was his major support, being his own brother, and with his brother's advancement, naturally, Lin Ao's status would rise too.

Bai Yutang, oh Bai Yutang, no calculation can beat fate. You think breaking through the Divine Acupoint made you great, but my brother also broke through.

Lin Xiong's venting roar lasted several seconds before he finally stopped, and the extending spiritual power retracted like tentacles.

The bamboo leaves frozen in mid-air fell back down again, and Lin Xiong looked across at Li Feng.

"That move of yours really helped me a lot just now. I had been stuck at that bottleneck, unable to break through even with months of seclusion, just a thin layer.

"Bai Yutang, I lost this round."

"Moreover, I, Lin Xiong, owe you one."

Lin Xiong didn't say thank you, admitting defeat was already a concession, and promising to owe someone was a huge favor.

His word was worth a thousand gold.

Having spoken, Lin Xiong abruptly turned away.

Lin Ao watched in disbelief, wondering what his brother meant by admitting defeat and owing Bai Yutang one.

Lin Ao hurriedly pursued Lin Xiong.

"Brother, you're just letting Bai Yutang go like that? You've already opened the Divine Acupoint, why bother about him?"

"I was humiliated by Bai Yutang, Brother, you must avenge me, or how will I exist in the Outer Sect in the future!"

Lin Xiong turned to look at Lin Ao.

"If you want revenge, do it yourself. Don't pretend if you're not strong. I used to ignore your troubles, but that doesn't mean you can use my name to cause chaos."

"Otherwise, if you get beaten to death, it's your own doing."

Lin Xiong rebuked Lin Ao, ignoring his ineffectual brother, born into the Lin Family, yet unaware that strength is the foundation, destined to be useless.

As for feelings of kinship?

Heh.

On the path of the great way, life and death are indifferent, to say nothing of emotions and desires.

Lin Xiong walked away, while Gao Yuanyuan, stepping on the falling bamboo leaves, approached Li Feng like a fairy descending to the mortal world.

"You really gave me a big surprise."

"Thanks to the Solid God Pill from Senior Sister last night, otherwise today's loss would have been miserable."

Gao Yuanyuan looked at the modest Bai Yutang.

"Alright, there's no need to be modest now. Everyone knows how strong Lin Xiong is. Although he's the fourth in the Outer Sect, he could actually be number one without much difficulty."

"Regardless, you won this match, now come with me, I'll take you to meet my master."

Gao Yuanyuan directly reached out and took Li Feng's arm, intending to leave.

At this moment.

Lu Ziqi stepped forward from behind, blocking the two: "Sister Gao, could you let go? He's my man, Sister Gao, isn't it a bit inappropriate to be so blatant?"

As Lu Ziqi spoke, she stepped forward, wrapping her arm around Li Feng, her soft body leaning against him.

Li Feng couldn't help but take a breath; Lu Ziqi's gentleness was somewhat irresistible.
