C729 To Dinner
In the Dragon Cloud Imperial Capital, the most famous should be the Holy Martial Academy, followed by the Imperial Palace. However, the most lively place would definitely be the Ice Heart Lake.
Ice Heart Lake was the coldest place of all, and it burned one's heart with cold wine. How many heroes, drunk to death, only for a glass of Ice Heart Wine.
No one would underestimate the Ice Heart Lake. There were many geniuses gathered here. Regardless of whether it was the Loongyun Empire or the Heaven's Pride s from other empires, all of them would stay at the side courtyard of the Ice Heart Lake.
However, although this place was bustling, it was not chaotic. Rather, it gave people a relaxed and happy feeling. Green willow trees hung down from the trees, and a small building in the Qing Hu Lake. It seemed as if the troubles in everyone's hearts could be wiped away.
In recent days, the Ice Heart Lake seemed a little special, and there were already close to a hundred people gathered there. These people had proud expressions on their faces, because they were all Heaven's Pride s from various sects and clans. It was only because of one person that they were gathered here today.
The group sat around the small island in the middle of the Ice Heart Lake, with the First Prince sitting inside. On his right was Long family's Aotian, Heaven Pavilion's Jing Xin and Shen Xuantong. To his left was an empty seat, and beyond that was Wu Xingyu.
Everyone looked at the empty seat beside the First Prince. They really wanted to know who that seat belonged to.
Wu Xingyu also frowned slightly, although he was at the same level as Shen Xuantong, Long Aotian, and Jing Xin, a Martial Cultivator at the fifth level of the Soul Forging. But because he was able to control the Demonic Beast, the three of them might not be his match if they were to compare. He thought that he was the most qualified person to sit next to Fenng Yuvrann. However, since Long Aotian had already reserved one, the other should belong to him. He just didn't expect him to be placed in a lower position, which made him quite unhappy.
However, he was also very thoughtful and did not express it. He just wanted to see who this seat belonged to.
Everyone looked at the empty seat and began to discuss. Not many of the younger generation dared to slight the First Prince Fenng Yuvrann's invitation. This man was rather strange, he had not shown up even at this time. However, seeing that Fenng Yuvrann's expression did not change, they could only wait silently.
A carriage pulled by a Dragon Horse stopped outside of the Ice Heart Lake. Soon after, a petite figure jumped down from the carriage. She was a young girl, and her large eyes scanned the surroundings. Although she was only eleven or twelve years old, she was already exceptionally beautiful.
However, after glancing at the two robust Dragon Horses, they cautiously withdrew their gazes. The Dragon Colt was definitely a godly existence, it didn't even have much Loongyun Empire. And this little girl was actually using it to pull a carriage. It was obvious that her identity wasn't simple. Moreover, they were even going to the Ice Heart Lake. They knew very well who was able to enter there, and it would definitely not be any easier to crush them than an ant.
"Brother Gufeng, hurry up, we're all late." It was Fenng Zhidie. He shouted towards the carriage with a pout.
"The time is just right, but I'm not late yet." A laugh was heard, and a young man stepped down from the carriage. This young man could not be considered to be particularly handsome. However, he exuded a unique aura that was extremely eye-catching. The eyes of some of the women passing by the Ice Heart Lake couldn't help but shine as they looked at the young man.
"Hurry up and go in. I think you're the only one in the younger generation who dares to do this. The others might have already arrived." Fenng Zhidie said with a smile.
Gu Feng shrugged his shoulders. Those people all wanted to leave an impression in front of Fenng Yuvrann, the crown prince. If they wanted to befriend or curry favor with him, of course, they would have come early. As for him, he would be at ease with him. It was obviously impossible to get Gu Feng to fawn over him.
Fenng Zhidie was running in front like a butterfly. Just as she stepped into the mahogany corridor, a well-dressed middle-aged man suddenly appeared in front of her.
The young man looked at Fenng Zhidie and frowned. He shouted coldly, "Scram!"
At the same time, he sent a palm strike towards Fenng Zhidie.
This middle-aged man had a cultivation at the second level of the Soul Forging, and was far from something that the little girl, Fenng Zhidie, could handle. Gu Feng's expression instantly turned cold. He took a step forward and arrived in front of the middle-aged man. He blocked Fenng Zhidie behind him and kicked the middle-aged man.
Looking at Gu Feng's kick, the middle-aged man's eyes were filled with disdain. At the very least, he's a powerhouse at the second level of the Soul Forging. A brat like you actually dared to fight with me?
"F * ck off."
Gu Feng's cold voice sounded as he kicked the middle-aged man's fist.
"Crunch."
Even a Martial Cultivator of the fifth level of the Soul Forging would find it hard to endure Gu Feng's strength, not to mention that Gu Feng had attacked in anger this time, he did not hold back at all. The middle-aged man's fist, including the bones in his arm, immediately shattered, and his entire arm turned into a mist of blood.
"Ah …" A miserable scream was heard. The middle-aged man's face was pale as he looked at Gu Feng in fear. He did not expect Gu Feng to be so terrifying, his arm exploded with a single kick.
"Hmph." Gu Feng snorted coldly. A trace of coldness flashed across his eyes. Then, he ignored him and pulled Fenng Zhidie towards the island in the middle of the Ice Heart Lake.
There were other people in the corridor. Seeing this, they all swallowed their saliva. They waited until Gu Feng was beside them before touching their bodies to get out of the way.
Although they were stronger than the middle-aged man, they were not much stronger. If they were kicked by Gu Feng, they would not feel well either.
"Bastard, I won't let you get away with this." After Gu Feng left, the middle-aged man glared at him and said with hatred. After consuming a healing pill, he quickly left.
"That kid is in trouble." As they watched the middle-aged man leave, the rest of the people in the corridor could not help but shake their heads. The middle-aged man didn't have much of a personality, but his background wasn't small. The son of the Great Elder of the Sunset Martial School held an extremely high position. And although the Sunset Martial School was of the first tier, they couldn't be underestimated either. Therefore, at ordinary times, no one was willing to provoke him. He had suffered greatly today, and had even lost an arm. He would definitely not let this matter rest.2
When everyone looked back at Gu Feng, they found that the two of them had already passed through the corridor and were walking towards the island in the middle of the lake.
"There …" The few of them were stunned, and their expressions became strange. After all, they knew who was in the center of Ice Heart Island.
