Xue Yangxia sensed something was amiss and quickly retreated several steps, assuming a defensive stance.
It was at this moment he realized that from the beginning until now, Xia Feng and the others had not shown any sign of fear.
It was as if they were in their own home.
This was completely against common sense.
Even if one had seen through worldly affairs and accepted life and death, it was unlikely for everyone to be like this.
Therefore, he was certain that Xia Feng and the others appeared calm, showing no hint of panic.
Xue Yangxia looked at Xia Feng with a solemn expression.
Dou Zhen, standing beside him, also followed, a hint of confusion on his face.
This was the first time he had seen Xue Yangxia so serious; for many years, Xue Yangxia had not displayed such an expression.
Seeing that Xue Yangxia had become suspicious, Xia Feng saw no need to conceal it further. He looked at Xue Yangxia and said, "Kneel down to speak. This might give you a chance to survive."
What???
Xue Yangxia knew Xia Feng was mysterious and had confidence, but he didn't know his trump card.
However, Xia Feng now telling him to kneel down was somewhat infuriating.
Did he think I was a sick cat just because I wasn't showing my claws?
"You..."
"Kneel."
As Xue Yangxia was about to speak, he was sharply rebuked by Xia Feng. The cultivation base of the Great Perfection of Immortal Emperor surged towards the two, and an immense pressure made it difficult for Xue Yangxia and Dou Zhen to breathe, feeling as if they were about to suffocate.
The saintly power in their bodies was suppressed, making it impossible to summon.
It felt as though they were on the brink of death; this power was indescribably immense.
Their faces changed drastically, and without any warning, they directly knelt on the ground.
Great Perfection of Saint Emperor!
How could this be?
Even as they knelt on the ground, they couldn't believe that the man before them was at the Great Perfection of Saint Emperor realm.
This was unheard of; when did the Saint Realm ever have the Great Perfection of Saint Emperor realm?
The two trembled with fear, a chilling sensation instantly permeating their bodies, causing them to involuntarily shiver.
At this moment, their gaze towards Xia Feng was entirely different, filled with profound terror.
Who would have thought that this was the strength of a Great Perfection of Saint Emperor?
Let alone them, anyone else would find it impossible to believe this fact.
"Saint Emperor... Great Perfection?"
Xue Yangxia's teeth chattered. Facing the unacceptability of the situation, it slowly began to become a reality.
He and Dou Zhen were kneeling straight up.
There was no way to deny it.
Xue Yangxia regretted asking the question, realizing it was redundant.
"Can we talk properly now?" Xia Feng asked Xue Yangxia.
"Yes... we will definitely talk properly." Xue Yangxia had long since lowered his arrogant head, prostrating himself on the ground, his body visibly trembling slightly.
"As for the previous question, does the Nine Nether Body have any other functions?" Xia Feng reiterated the question.
"Replying to the Saint Emperor, we saw it in ancient texts. It only stated that the Nine Nether Body could allow someone at the Great Perfection of Saint Venerable to directly break through to the early stage of Saint Emperor. I truly don't know anything else." Xue Yangxia was as honest as a dog, explaining each word.
Xia Feng stopped asking. Since Xue Yangxia said so, he probably didn't know.
After all, Li Yurou was his person. Regardless of what functions her physique had, Xia Feng would not exploit it for anything.
Instead, he needed to protect Li Yurou even more, lest she be used by those with ill intentions.
"Alright, does anyone here have this jade pendant?" Xia Feng asked, producing a seven-colored disc from his hand.
This was the main reason for their visit, so he had to get the seven-colored disc first.
This was the fourth one; with this one, they were more than halfway done.
Xue Yangxia looked at the jade pendant in Xia Feng's hand. After careful observation, he confirmed, "I have never seen it."
If Xue Yangxia didn't have it, it must be in someone else's possession.
At this moment, Ma Tiangang and Ge Chenghua excitedly ran back, shouting, "Big Brother, the altar is ready. Let's get started quickly."
The two ran in enthusiastically and looked at the kneeling figures, asking with surprise,
"Big Brother, why are they kneeling on the ground?"
