My Sexy CEO Wife-Chapter 232 - 231: Independent Space (Part 4)
```
After a discussion, everyone decided to wait until after the New Year before searching for the entrance to the independent space at Shennongjia.
Counting the days, there were only half a month left until the New Year.
"Everyone go home and have a good New Year's celebration. On the sixth day of the first lunar month, gather here, and then we'll head to Shennongjia," Huyan Wudi said loudly. "No objections, right?"
"No objections," everyone said in unison.
And so, one after another, they left Ninefold Mountain.
...
Gao Fei and Sima Shangyue had just arrived at the foot of the mountain when they were blocked by Chen Feiyang and his son.
"What do you want?" Gao Fei asked emotionlessly.
"I want to kill you!" Chen Feiyang said with a cold laugh. "Now that you've left Ninefold Mountain, Sect Leader Huyan won't protect you anymore. If you know what's good for you, kneel and beg for mercy now, and maybe I'll leave you a whole corpse."
"You old geezer, it's not certain who will kill who yet," Gao Fei took a step forward, pointing at Chen Feiyang. "If you're in such a hurry to reincarnate, I'll fulfill your wish today! Take this!" Gao Fei flipped his wrist, and a hammer appeared in the palm of his hand. He raised the hammer and smashed it toward Chen Feiyang.
"Boom..."
The hammer tore through the air, making a thunderous, deafening sound, incredibly frightening to hear.
"A Treasure!" Chen Feiyang exclaimed in shock. "You have a Treasure!" Quickly dodging, he did not dare to engage Gao Fei in combat.
"Scared now? Too late!" Gao Fei laughed heartily. "Old geezer, watch how I clean you up!" Wielding the hammer, Gao Fei pursued Chen Feiyang, who dodged desperately in a very sorry state. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦
The surrounding crowd was stunned... the situation was entirely different from what they had imagined. They thought Gao Fei was doomed, but it turned out... Chen Feiyang was the one in trouble... It was simply unbelievable...
Gao Fei was at the Tenth Level of the Inedia Stage, with a Combat Power of 20,000 points. Chen Feiyang was at the Fifth Level of the Golden Core Realm, with a Combat Power of 25,000 points, a full 5,000 points more than Gao Fei. If the two were to fight bare-handed, Gao Fei would stand no chance.
Once Gao Fei took out the hammer, his Combat Power doubled, reaching 60,000 points. With that, Chen Feiyang became timid.
The hammer was transformed from the Thousand Transformations Stone, capable of doubling Combat Power. This was Gao Fei's strongest combat force to date.
It had to be said, the Thousand Transformations Stone was indeed a Defying Heavenly Level Treasure.
Gao Fei had already tried it, and with his current level of cultivation, he could only manipulate the Thousand Transformations Stone to transform into some simple Weapons. As his cultivation level increased, he would be able to transform it into more advanced Weapons. By that time, Gao Fei would be even more impressive.
"Boom!!!"
With a slam of the hammer on the ground, Gao Fei created a large crater, stones flying everywhere, creating a shocking scene. "Old geezer, weren't you acting all tough? Why hide? Come and fight me!"
"You have a Treasure, how can I fight you!" Chen Feiyang roared angrily. "If you have the guts, discard the Treasure and fight me with your bare hands."
"You're the shameless one," Gao Fei cursed. "You're at the Golden Core Realm, and I'm at the Inedia Stage, and you want me to fight you bare-handed? Do you think I'm a fool? Even a fool wouldn't listen to you."
"You're the shameless one," Chen Feiyang cursed back. "You're not as capable as me, and you chase me with a Treasure. Even if you win, it's a dishonorable victory, I won't acknowledge you."
"When I kill you, you'll acknowledge me," Gao Fei cursed while stepping up his attack, causing Chen Feiyang to hop around, crying out in fright. He came close to being smashed to death by Gao Fei several times. Panicked, Chen Feiyang realized if this continued, he would eventually be killed by Gao Fei.
Standing on the side, Chen Baobao was also anxious, seeing his father repeatedly in danger while he was powerless as a son was unbearable: "Gao, it was I who provoked you. If you want to kill, kill me, don't make it hard on my dad." Chen Baobao was quite brave and filial.
"Don't rush, after I smash your dad to death, I'll take care of you," Gao Fei said with a cold laugh. "I'll make sure you father and son accompany each other in the Underworld."
"You bastard!" Chen Baobao's face turned blue with rage. "I'll fight you today!" He charged forward, swinging his fists.
"Get back!" Chen Feiyang was startled. "Don't come over, you're no match for him..."
"Dad, I can't just watch you face danger alone. If we live, we live together, if we die, we die together," Chen Baobao charged forward without a second thought.
"You foolish child," Chen Feiyang was both angry and touched.
"Die together then," Gao Fei gripped the hammer with both hands, leaping high and falling heavily. The hammer descended from the sky, tearing through the Void, heading straight for Chen Feiyang and Chen Baobao. This hammer was earth-shattering, covering a radius of several dozen meters. Chen Feiyang and Chen Baobao had no time to dodge and wore looks of despair.
The surrounding crowd let out a sigh, with some closing their eyes, not bearing to see Chen Feiyang and Chen Baobao die gruesomely.
Everyone thought that Chen Feiyang and his son were dead, to be killed by a cultivator at the Inedia Stage, was indeed ironic.
"Whoosh!"
Just at this critical moment, a figure flew down from the top of the mountain at an unbelievable speed. In the blink of an eye, the figure arrived in front of Gao Fei, holding a Longsword in one hand, and lifted it to block the falling hammer.
"It's Sect Leader Huyan."
"Nowadays, only Sect Leader Huyan could save Chen Feiyang and his son."
"With Sect Leader Huyan stepping in, that guy with the surname Gao is definitely in for it."
```
...
Murmurs spread through the crowd.
Indeed, the figure that had suddenly appeared was Huyan Wudi.
"Sect Leader Huyan, thank you for saving our lives," Chen Feiyang and Chen Baobao hurriedly clasped their hands in gratitude, their hearts filled with appreciation. At the brink of life and death, being able to survive had not been easy at all. Only those who had truly faced life and death could understand the preciousness of life.
"Sect Leader Huyan! What is the meaning of this!" Gao Fei retracted his hammer and angrily questioned, "Why did you stop me from killing Chen Feiyang and his son!"
"Cultivator Chen Feiyang is my friend. If you want to kill him, I certainly cannot stand by and do nothing," Huyan Wudi said coolly.
"You..."
"Do me a favor and let them go," he requested.
"Impossible!" Gao Fei stated decisively.
"As long as I'm here today, you won't lay a finger on them," Huyan Wudi's stance was equally firm.
Gao Fei glared at Huyan Wudi, ready to start a fight at a moment's disagreement.
Huyan Wudi also quietly watched Gao Fei, his longsword still raised, ready to strike at any moment.
The atmosphere on the scene suddenly became tense.
Chen Feiyang prayed silently in his heart, do it, just do it, let Huyan Wudi finish off Gao Fei!
"High Sect Leader! Calm down!" At the critical moment, Sima Shangyue stepped forward, holding back the extremely angry Gao Fei, "Sect Leader Huyan is right, spare those who can be spared. Don't be too hard on them." Saying this, Sima Shangyue winked at Gao Fei, signaling him not to act rashly.
After taking several deep breaths to suppress the anger in his heart, Gao Fei nodded, "Alright, I'll do you this favor and let them go today, but..." Gao Fei's tone grew severe, "they'd better not provoke me again in the future, or I will definitely kill them!"
With Gao Fei's concession, the tense atmosphere eased somewhat.
The onlooking crowd was rather disappointed, having hoped to witness an extraordinary spectacle, only to be let down in the end—it was truly frustrating.
"High Sect Leader, the hammer in your hand is quite exquisite," Huyan Wudi casually remarked.
"The longsword in your hand is also quite exquisite," Gao Fei responded indifferently.
From the moment Huyan Wudi appeared, Gao Fei had known it would be impossible to kill Chen Feiyang and his son that day. Huyan Wudi's cultivation was higher than his—a lot higher—and moreover, the longsword in Huyan Wudi's hand was a very powerful treasure capable of greatly boosting combat power. If the two were to clash, it would certainly be Gao Fei who failed.
Since he couldn't win, the only option was to yield.
"I have a question, and I hope High Sect Leader can enlighten me," Huyan Wudi spoke, "That hammer is not small; it can't be concealed on one's body, so how do you normally carry it? Don't tell me... you have a storage space on you?" At this point, a glint flashed in Huyan Wudi's eyes.
"That's right, I do indeed have a storage space," Gao Fei admitted frankly, as he had been found out.
"High Sect Leader, you're quite lucky to have a storage space. I wonder if you could let me have a look?" Huyan Wudi's tone was a bit sour, as he had always wanted a storage space but had never succeeded in obtaining one.
"I'm sorry, I can't show you," Gao Fei flatly refused and added, "I have matters to attend to, I must be going." With that said, Gao Fei, accompanied by Sima Shangyue, left.
Watching Gao Fei's receding figure, Huyan Wudi's gaze flickered, his thoughts inscrutable.
"Sect Leader Huyan, you shouldn't have let him go," Chen Feiyang approached and said, "Gao Fei clearly doesn't take you seriously, repeatedly provoking you. You should have struck him down!"
Huyan Wudi turned his head and glanced indifferently at Chen Feiyang, "I don't need your direction on what to do."
"Um... I didn't mean that..."
"It's getting late. You should hit the road with your son," he said.
"Alright, we're leaving. Goodbye, Sect Leader Huyan." Chen Feiyang clasped his hands in farewell and then quickly led Chen Baobao away.
"Fellow cultivators, please leave as well. Go rest well for a few days and come to meet on the sixth day of the first lunar month." Huyan Wudi waved his hands to the crowd around, "At that time, I'll prepare a lavish banquet to welcome and cleanse the dust of travel for you all."
"Goodbye, Sect Leader Huyan!"
"Goodbye!"
A group of people left, swaying leisurely.
Moments later, the foot of the mountain became quiet.
Huyan Wudi stood in place, gazing into the distance, his clothes fluttering in the wind, a contemplative expression on his face.
"Sect Leader," an elder approached from beside, "you should have kept Gao Fei here."
