After probing a few times, both sides realized that the enemy was not easy to deal with. Then, the Heavenly King Stronghold sent an envoy to deliver Lu Longchuan’s personal letter and invited Chen Feng and the others to meet in front of the formation. They received an affirmative reply.

On the day of the appointment, the leaders of both sides led their troops and faced each other at a pass near the lake.

The pass was towering, and flags fluttered. The people from the Heavenly King Stronghold stood on the wall. On the surface of the water was a large-scale navy, with endless ships. Chen Feng and the other leaders stood at the bow of the ship, meeting their opponents across the lake.

“Chief Chen, Brother Guo, how have you been?”

Xiang Tianjie shouted in front of the formation.

Guo Haishen looked at Chen Feng. Seeing that his second brother had no intention of speaking, he took over and replied loudly,

“Leader Xiang, we meet again. When we parted that day, we even said that we would meet again in the future. Unexpectedly, we met again.”

“That’s right…”

Xiang Tianjie sighed.

At this moment, Guo Haishen paused and decided to take the initiative. His voice rang out,

“Three years ago, the brothers of the Heavenly King Stronghold wreaked havoc in the An Lin Prefecture and broke into the prison to save me. I’ve always remembered this kindness in my heart. I don’t want to become enemies with the Heavenly King Stronghold, but since you’ve attacked us from afar, I can’t just wait to die. I can only show my true strength. Please bear with me. If you fall into the hands of our army, I’ll naturally try my best to protect your lives. I’ll repay your kindness.”

Hearing this, Xiang Tianjie was speechless.

It was an undeniable fact that his stronghold had done Guo Haishen a favor. He did want to play the emotional card, but before he could speak, he was blocked by the other party.

In the Heavenly King Stronghold, many leaders recognized Guo Haishen and had a good relationship. At this moment, they all shook their heads and sighed in silence.

Lu Longchuan coughed and took over. His gaze locked on Chen Feng as he said loudly, “This must be Chief Chen. I’ve heard a lot about you.”

Chen Feng looked up at him, “You’re Lu Longchuan, who’s also known as the Heavenly King?”

“That’s right.”

Lu Longchuan stroked his beard and was about to say something.

However, at this moment, Chen Feng suddenly shouted, his voice shaking the clouds,

“I, Chen Feng, am known as a hero, but I’m actually on par with a despicable person like you who covets wealth!”

As soon as these words were spoken, both sides were shocked.

The atmosphere of reminiscence between the two sides suddenly stopped, and they fell out completely.

Lu Longchuan was stunned. He had originally thought that since they were all leaders of the Green Forest, their statuses would be similar. Although they were enemies now, they should have been polite before using force when they first met. He did not expect Chen Feng to be so disrespectful.

He was immediately furious, and his face flushed red. He could not be bothered to be polite anymore and shouted angrily,

“Chen Feng, don’t be arrogant! You’ve done the opposite and wreaked havoc on the world. I’m here on the orders of the Imperial Court to eliminate a scourge like you. I’ve reason on my side. If you continue to be stubborn, you’ll only die!”

Hearing this, Chen Feng’s expression did not change as he said coldly,

“Three years ago, we were still on the same side in the Green Forest. Leader Xiang fought alongside us and called us brothers. However, after you were recruited, you turned your heads away from the Green Forest and turned your weapons against us. You abandoned your morals and were willing to be loyal dogs of the Imperial Court. You still have the cheek to call us brothers. How despicable! Everyone says that there’s a Heavenly King in the north and a Dragon King in the south, but Grandpa is ashamed to be associated with you!”

Many leaders of the Heavenly King Stronghold were already quite impressed with a hero like Chen Feng in the first place. When they heard these words, they could not help but feel a little ashamed and find it difficult to refute.

Some of their leaders were also quite dissatisfied with the encounter after the recruitment, but for the sake of their brotherhood, they could only become enemies with Chen Feng.

Lu Longchuan was so angry that his face twitched. He bellowed out as well,

“I serve the country and have a clear conscience. I’m not like a rebel like you who doesn’t care about the law! Since you won’t cry until you see the coffin, I have nothing to say to you… Brothers of the Dragon King Stronghold, listen up. The Imperial Court has ordered that this evil must be eliminated. Those who follow me can be exempted from the law!

Everyone, think it through. You are only occupying a province, while the Imperial Court has a total of 24 provinces. If you are determined to be an outlaw, you will definitely not be so lucky. If you follow his path to the end, your entire family will be implicated!”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a slight commotion among the soldiers of the Dragon King Stronghold.

At this moment, Chen Feng suddenly shouted,

“It’s useless to say anything else. Take my spear!”

He suddenly grabbed a spear and shot it out.

Swish!

The spear was like a meteor shooting towards the moon. It crossed the wide lake and shot straight towards the city wall.

Lu Longchuan was shocked and hurriedly pounced to the side.

The spear fell halfway and stabbed deeply into the bottom of the wall, revealing only the trembling end.

“What kind of arm strength is this?!”

Lu Longchuan and the leaders of the Heavenly King Stronghold widened their eyes in disbelief.

On the ship, Chen Feng was at least a few hundred steps away from them. With such a casual throw, he almost killed them?!

It was simply unheard of!

Seeing Chen Feng raise another spear, the leaders of the Heavenly King Stronghold were shocked. They all shrunk their heads and squatted down, not daring to appear on the wall again.

This shocking throw also shocked the three armies on scene.

“Chief is mighty!”

“Hahaha, you’re bragging so much. Why don’t you even have the guts to face our chief?!”

The morale of the people from the Dragon King Stronghold immediately soared. They roared excitedly, sweeping away the fluctuations in the hearts of the people just now.

On the other hand, everyone in the Heavenly King Stronghold was shocked. They felt that such a monster was simply not something that human strength could defeat. Their morale immediately dissipated.

Lu Longchuan carefully stuck his head out to take a look and said in a panic, “There’s actually such martial strength in the world… The rumors in the capital that Chen Feng is a flood dragon turned into a human are probably not fake.”

Xiang Tianjie was also in disbelief, “Although his martial arts were outstanding three years ago, he definitely did not have such skills. How did he become so powerful?”

“God knows.”

Lu Longchuan’s expression was ugly.

He had originally thought that since he was the former number one expert of the Green Forest, he was not too far off. He might be able to exchange a few moves with Chen Feng, but now, he realized that he was not even worthy of carrying the other party’s shoes. This fellow was much stronger than the rumors!

Sun Rong’s heart skipped a beat as he watched. He said in a low voice, “Fortunately, we had the foresight to invite strong reinforcements. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have been able to do anything to Chen Feng.”

Lu Longchuan nodded heavily and hurriedly said,

“This fellow is indeed invincible. Hurry up and invite Perfected Master Windwalker!”

He had invited the leader of the Dragon King Stronghold to meet because he wanted to use righteousness to attack the other party’s morale. However, this plan had already failed with Chen Feng’s display of martial arts.

The second goal was to lure the snake out of its hole and make Chen Feng appear. From then on, he would have a reason to ask the Perfected One for help.

The messenger received the order and hurriedly ran down the city wall.

Soon, he arrived at Perfected Master Windwalker’s tent and hurriedly said,

“Perfected One, the bandit leader has already appeared. Commander Lu requests your help.”

Zhou Jing, who was projecting himself on Bill, opened his eyes and slowly stood up with a faint smile.

“Then lead the way. I’ll go meet this demon.”
