"Do you have the right to order my Sword Attendant around?" Ye Feng asked coldly upon approaching Apollo.

As Ye Feng spoke and his expression was observed, Apollo felt a chill down his spine, his scalp prickled, and a sense of foreboding arose in his heart.

"No... I wouldn’t dare..." He shook his head in fear, answering nervously.

Indeed, even someone like Apollo had to be cautious and careful in front of a powerhouse like Ye Feng.

He understood very well that if he displeased Ye Feng in any way, his life might be in danger.

"Then why did you order my Sword Attendant around earlier?" Seeing Apollo’s fear, Ye Feng asked mockingly.

"I... I’m sorry... I offended you, and I apologize." Though Apollo felt reluctant in his heart, under such circumstances, he could only submit.

"Kneel down and apologize! Kneel down and apologize to him." Seeing him reduced to a cowardly state, Ye Feng roared angrily.

Upon hearing Ye Feng’s roar, Apollo’s face turned livid like pig liver, looking extremely unsightly.

However, he was acutely aware of his current predicament, knowing that if he didn’t comply, he would truly lose his life.

"I apologize!" So, he could only nod and crawl towards Apollo while kneeling.

"I’m sorry! Please forgive me."

"I’m sorry!"

As he crawled, he continuously apologized to Apollo.

He felt that this was the greatest humiliation of his life; Ye Feng was deliberately disgracing him.

All of his life’s honor was lost at this moment.

Yet, he had no other recourse, as his life was in Ye Feng’s hands—Ye Feng could end his life with ease.

"Oh, is this still the Apollo we know?"

"My God! He actually apologized to Apollo in such a manner. If word got out, he’d probably become the nation’s biggest joke, wouldn’t he?"

"Is this the consequence of offending Ye Feng? This is almost crueller than killing Apollo, isn’t it?"

"It’s trampling Apollo’s dignity underfoot; he never imagined he’d come to face such a day, did he?"

...

Seeing Apollo’s actions, everyone was stunned, displaying expressions of disbelief.

They didn’t expect Apollo to endure even such demands, actually complying—this greatly surprised them.

They assumed that even in death, Apollo wouldn’t agree to such an unreasonable request.

In their view, for a cultivator, especially one of the world’s top cultivators, to be trampled in such a way, death might be a relief.

At this moment, they realized just how ruthless Ye Feng truly was.

So, they firmly etched Ye Feng’s face into their minds, resolute not to ever offend Ye Feng, the Devil.

"Seeing your sincere apology, I’ll spare your life."

Hearing this from Ye Feng, Apollo’s heart leapt with joy, yet he buried his resentment deeply within, planning to exact revenge on Ye Feng if given the chance.

"You can escape death, but not punishment. From now on, you’ll live as an ordinary person, relying on begging for generations to survive!"

However, before he could feel any relief, Ye Feng’s next words plunged him into an abyss.

"No... you can’t do this to me, you can’t be so cruel." Upon hearing Ye Feng’s words, Apollo shrieked as though he had lost his mind.

But Ye Feng was not willing to give him a chance and prepared to make his move.

"Hiss~ He’s even going to cripple Apollo? Such ruthless measures."

"But this is understandable. Apollo previously attempted to kill him. If it were you, would you easily spare Apollo?"

"Indeed, though the means are cruel, they can be understood. Crippling Apollo might already be his limit."

"Remember him; never offend him regardless of whom you wrong—he’s a devil."

Seeing Ye Feng truly intent on crippling Apollo, everyone trembled with fear, looking at Ye Feng as if he were a devil.

At the same time, they warned themselves internally to never offend Ye Feng—this guy was simply a devil.

"Isn’t that going too far, sir?"

Just then, as Ye Feng was about to cripple Apollo, a voice called out.

Simultaneously, a divine light suddenly appeared before everyone, rushing toward Ye Feng in an attempt to save Apollo.

"An ambush?" Feeling the threat, Ye Feng coldly glanced at the divine light and released a burst of True Qi.

The opposing party ambushed with all their might while Ye Feng was forced to react, yet he remained unconcerned, and thus was interrupted, taking a step back.

As for the attacker, they used True Qi to pull Apollo back and shield him.

"The Holy Land Country—it’s the number one powerhouse of our Holy Land Country. Unexpectedly, it’s him who came."

"My God, a being stronger than Apollo; this time Ye Feng is the Holy Land Country’s treasure."

"Good! So it’s our Holy Land Country’s Elf who arrived. Doesn’t this mean our Holy Land Country can dominate now?"

Seeing the elder, the people of the Holy Land Country all exclaimed in excitement.

The newcomer was also an elder, appearing benevolent but with eyes harboring endless malice, a smile affixed to his face.

This was the quintessential Smiling Tiger, the number one powerhouse of the Holy Land Country, Elf, possessing terrifying strength, ranked far higher in the world than Apollo, a true peak Martial Immortal powerhouse.

"Whoa! Have even peak Martial Immortal-level powerhouses joined?"

"This event has escalated greatly! It’s been a long time since things have been this lively; Ye Feng’s value might be far more terrifying than we imagined."

"This is going to be interesting. With the terrifying power Ye Feng previously displayed, isn’t it worth anticipating whether he can defeat the peak Martial Immortal?"

...

"Peak Martial Immortal, this is a peak Martial Immortal powerhouse. It’s said he achieved peak Martial Immortal a long time ago. Who knows what his true strength is now?"

"Phew! Even such a level of powerhouse has gotten involved? Just what kind of terrifying allure does Ye Feng possess?"

"Nonetheless, Ye Feng’s not easy to provoke; despite us doubting him previously, who would’ve thought he’d so effortlessly defeat Apollo—he’s really something else."

...

A lot of informed individuals at the scene were astounded, having never thought that even peak Martial Immortal-level powerhouses would partake in this event.

However, after the previous series of shocking incidents, some were hesitant to underestimate Ye Feng.

In their view, judging by Ye Feng’s previously demonstrated terrifying power, he might truly be capable of contending with the peak Martial Immortal.

In an instant, all eyes turned to Ye Feng and Elf, feeling that this would be a battle for the ages...
