Meeting such a situation, Xia Feng would naturally step in to help, and would not owe Chu Qingyu this favor.
Xia Feng had always been on the side of justice. His appearance meant there would be no unequal treatment.
Having grown up on Earth, he only saw equality in his eyes.
Although he knew that Earth was also unequal, some superficial things still needed to be done.
Just like now, this person, relying on his strength, was preparing to kill indiscriminately, showing no mercy to any ordinary person in Ascending City. This was simply insane. If Xia Feng encountered such a situation and did not intervene, it would truly be a disservice to his cultivation.
The man soaring in the air was named Cao Buren. He was at the early stage of the Saint Emperor realm.
However, he was not one of the two well-known early-stage Saint Emperors, but one who had broken through to the early stage of the Saint Emperor realm by cultivating evil arts.
Therefore, no one knew of his existence. The dragon soul was also a soul he had nurtured, intending to collect the divine energy of humans to help him break through to the middle stage of the Saint Emperor realm.
Now that it had been taken away, Cao Buren was so enraged that he almost spat blood. This was also the reason why he was determined to kill everyone in the city to vent his anger.
Moreover, he was an evil cultivator and never cared about the lives of others.
As he was basking in his triumph, preparing to watch the crowd below be turned into a living hell by him, a lightning bolt he had just unleashed inexplicably disappeared.
Cao Buren was very confused.
What was going on?
Did Ascending City have a secret?
Otherwise, why would his lightning bolt vanish?
As Cao Buren was pondering, he saw someone slowly rising from below and heading straight towards him.
After they were on the same level, he noticed the man had a smile on his lips, showing no trace of panic when facing him. Instead, there was a hint of mockery.
Cao Buren confirmed it again. He felt it was mockery.
Someone showed him a mocking expression?
This was the first time Cao Buren felt this way since he could remember.
Did someone dare to be so arrogant towards him now?
"I will eat you alive," Cao Buren said with a ferocious expression, preparing to attack Xia Feng.
Xia Feng waved his hand and said casually, "A mere evil cultivator, who knows how many people you've harmed to break through to the early stage of the Saint Emperor. Meeting me today is heaven's grace. Killing you is acting on behalf of heaven and eradicating harm for the people."
"Relying on your early-stage Saint Emperor strength to disregard the lives of ordinary people is a crime deserving of death."
Xia Feng looked at Cao Buren expressionlessly, enumerating his various crimes.
Cao Buren also realized something was wrong.
No matter how he looked at it, he felt that Xia Feng did not seem like a brainless person.
Therefore, did Xia Feng possess the strength to contend with him?
Otherwise, why would Xia Feng dare to be so arrogant?
"Who are you? How dare you speak to me like this?" Cao Buren put away his underestimation. He, who had been about to attack Lin Feiyu, now dared not act rashly.
This was because he could not sense any Saint power from Xia Feng, nor could he feel any fear in Xia Feng's eyes.
It was precisely because of this that Cao Buren became somewhat flustered.
Cao Buren naturally knew about the two Saint Emperors, but it was definitely not Xia Feng, as he was not this young.
So, what gave Xia Feng the courage?
After some internal struggle, he began to suspect if Xia Feng was an idiot who was toying with him.
After all, the fact that there were only two Saint Emperors in the Saint Realm was known to the world.
So, was Xia Feng bluffing?
Realizing this, Cao Buren shouted:
"Damn it, you're playing with me, die!"
