Chapter 379 Time to Repay the Debt

While the battles on the other arenas raged on in all their chaos, Chen Fei’s fight ended the fastest.

He had effortlessly and cleanly defeated Xiyu. She didn’t dare utter a single threat—for a moment, she had genuinely felt she was going to die. If not for the protective essence of blood shielding her at the last second, that punch would’ve blown her head off for real.

Silently, Xiyu reformed her body and leapt off the Yixian Platform without saying a word.

Her very foundation had been shaken. Recovering to her former peak would now require a massive amount of resources.

Chen Fei paid her no attention and turned his gaze to Zang Tong’s arena.

Among all the disciples from Tianqing Sacred Land, Zang Tong gave him the strangest feeling—his body emanated a peculiar aura that even Chen Fei couldn’t quite see through.

On his arena, Zang Tong was only using the most basic footwork technique: Seven Star Steps.

Yet his opponent, a powerful demon cultivator, couldn’t even touch the hem of his robe, no matter how fast he attacked.

Chen Fei’s curiosity was piqued.

“Wang Fu said Zang Tong cultivates a Fate-type technique… How interesting,” he murmured.

At this point, Chen Fei had become the outlier on the Yixian Platform.

All other arenas were locked in intense combat, while he stood there like a spectator, watching others fight from up close—and no one dared to challenge him.

“What’s going on with Chen Fei’s arena? Are the demon and evil cultivators avoiding it on purpose?”

“Heh! Don’t say stupid things out loud. That evil cultivator’s moves? If it were you, you’d already be shredded into minced meat!”

“Chen Fei’s not being ignored—they’re terrified of him! They’d rather not provoke him at all. A bunch of cowards, really!”

Even the elders, including Mu Yun Su, couldn’t help but feel awkward at the sight.

The demon and evil cultivators had made such a grand entrance, clearly intent on seizing the Ghost King Tokens—yet now they were too afraid to even touch Chen Fei. The result was both hilarious and frustrating.

“Looks like Chen Fei has that Ghost King Token locked in,” Liu Xu said with admiration.

Wang Situ sighed.

“Locked in, yes. But it’s a pity. If someone strong had challenged him, we might’ve forced out some of the hidden trump cards these demons and evil cultivators are concealing.”

Everyone fell silent at that.

There was no doubt: both sides were still holding back. This phase was more about testing the waters.

Mu Yun Su suddenly smiled.

“Well… there’s a way to stir the pot.”

The others looked at her curiously.

“Chen Fei values contribution points,” she said.

Wang Situ caught on immediately. With a quick wave, he sent a voice transmission:

“Chen Fei, find a way to provoke the demon and evil cultivators. Do it right, and you’ll earn two hundred thousand contribution points!”

As his message landed, Yen Wujiu’s eyes turned sharply in their direction. With a cold snort, he waved his sleeve.

BOOM!

The ground beneath Wang Situ’s feet cracked open.

Yen Wujiu said softly,

“With all the Heaven Phase experts watching, I hope your tactics aren’t too shady.”

Mu Yun Su replied with a light chuckle,

“Our disciples are just lazy, that’s all. Besides, you’re the one controlling the Yixian Platform—we wouldn’t dare mess around. A few reminders here and there, nothing more.”

Which was true. Even Yen Wujiu couldn’t find fault with it.

After Yen Wujiu withdrew his gaze, Wang Situ let out a shaky breath.

“He’s terrifying. That man… he must already be at the peak of the Heaven Phase.”

His words startled the others.

If Yen Wujiu was that strong, then none of them might be able to take him on in a real fight.

On the platform, Chen Fei looked confused at first. But when he noticed the cracked ground beneath Wang Situ’s feet, he realized the transmission was real—and the offer was real.

Two hundred thousand contribution points.

His debt could be paid off all at once.

Chen Fei was nothing if not practical.

If all he had to do was provoke some people and get paid… well, that was practically charity.

Noticing that no one was still willing to challenge him, Chen Fei cleared his throat and shouted:

“Hey! Wang Fang, what are you doing over there? Why not give up and come chat with me?”

Wang Fang, who was in the middle of a fight against a core disciple of the Fire Sect, felt a chill run down his back.

The Fire Sect disciple wasn’t going to miss such an opening. His flames surged and struck Wang Fang hard.

Wang Fang had a lot of defensive treasures, so he wasn’t badly hurt—but his expression darkened as he glared at Chen Fei.

“Don’t be mad!” Chen Fei grinned.

“Chu Senior Brother’s moves are brutal. If you keep fighting him, he might kill you. But me? I’m different. You pay me a little, and I’ll let you live!”

Chu Zhen, the Fire Sect disciple, gave Chen Fei a glance.

“This guy’s got personality.”

With Wang Fang visibly distracted, Chu Zhen pressed the advantage. In an instant, the fight flipped—and Wang Fang was on the defensive.

Wang Fang was boiling with anger. But he had to hold back. After all, the fusion of the treasures in the Blood Burial Secret Realm wasn’t yet complete. He still had to enter the Ghost King Hall and find the final cultivation spot.

So… for now, he endured.

Wang Fang completely ignored Chen Fei from that point forward.

Chen Fei shrugged.

“Lame.”

But soon, his eyes lit up with a new target:

Peach Blossom Fairy.

“Peach Blossom! Shall we talk about that night?”

He said it with a bright, innocent smile.

Peach Blossom Fairy’s face froze. She turned in confusion to look at him.

That night? What night?

Her mind went blank. Her attacks faltered.

She wasn’t even fighting Cold Moon Saintess right now, but Min Xingxuan, a core disciple of the Golden Sect.

Outside the Yixian Platform, Tianqing disciples erupted into gossip.

“That Peach Blossom Fairy might be an evil cultivator, but damn, that figure and face… She’s a top-tier beauty! And don’t forget, she specializes in seduction techniques!”

“We heard Chen Fei was battling wits and magic with evil cultivators during his training—but now it sounds like something else went down!”

“Oh, it definitely happened. You saw her reaction? She looked totally flustered! And Wang Fang? Not even trying to deny it. That’s as real as it gets!”

Clearly, everyone believed some scandalous night had taken place between Chen Fei and Peach Blossom Fairy.

Miao Yue glanced up and muttered bitterly,

“Master-in-law is amazing at everything… except that he’s a bit of a flirt. That Peach Blossom Fairy is just a vixen—what’s so great about her anyway?”

Her older brother, Miao Teng, standing nearby, heard her clearly.

He looked at his sister’s youthful figure, then glanced at Peach Blossom Fairy’s curvy and seductive body on the platform… and sighed inwardly.

“Silly girl. You really don’t understand men.”

Truthfully, Miao Teng had already been impressed by Chen Fei.

Now, with Chen Fei showing overwhelming strength and wit on top of it, he was starting to feel even more satisfied with this potential brother-in-law.

His little sister only cared about cultivating. Someone had to look after the important things.

Yes… once this whole affair is over, I need to act quickly. Otherwise, this excellent brother-in-law might just get snatched away.
