Chapter 196: Chapter 196: Must Hold on Even in Death_1
At this thought, the Yan King hurriedly walked towards Lin Chang.
Qin Feiyang raised an eyebrow. What was he up to?
The Yan King chuckled, "Young friend, I would like to talk to him. Can you step aside for a moment?"
Since the Yan King was being so courteous, Qin Feiyang felt he couldn’t refuse and could only step aside.
The Yan King went up, grabbed Lin Chang’s hand, and said with self-reproach, "I am truly ashamed. For Yiyi and my son’s grand wedding, I actually failed to invite you. Brother Lin, I hope you can forgive me!"
Fatty murmured, "Boss, something bad might be about to happen."
Qin Feiyang’s pupils contracted as he stared intently at Lin Chang.
At this moment, Lin Chang was somewhat at a loss. As someone who lived at the very bottom of society, he never imagined he would meet such an important figure in his entire life. And now, this great personage was actually setting aside his dignity to apologize to him face-to-face? He was truly flattered beyond belief.
The Yan King smiled. "Brother Lin, I deeply regret what Lin Han has done. However, you’ve also seen how much my son truly loves Yiyi. Why don’t you grant them your blessing?"
"This..."
Lin Chang looked at Qin Feiyang.
Qin Feiyang gently shook his head.
A glint flickered in the Yan King’s eyes as he continued to smile, "Brother Lin, as long as you nod your head now, from this day forward, the royal palace will be your home. You can come and go as you please."
Having finished speaking, he turned to the First Prince and shouted, "What are you doing? Hurry up and greet your future father-in-law!"
The First Prince jolted and quickly ran before Lin Chang, bowing. "Your humble son-in-law greets his esteemed father-in-law."
That address, "father-in-law," made Lin Chang’s heart waver.
Qin Feiyang looked at Lin Yiyi; her face was filled with a plea for help.
His gaze hardened, and he said to Lin Chang, "Please consider Yiyi’s feelings."
"I..." Lin Chang hesitated, undecided.
In the end, he looked at Qin Feiyang and smiled. "I believe that after Yiyi marries into the royal family, the First Prince will certainly treat her well. As Yiyi’s good friend, shouldn’t you offer your blessings?"
"Bastard!" Fatty was enraged.
Lu Hong was also seething with anger.
Lin Yiyi, for her part, collapsed to the ground on the spot, tears streaming down like rain.
But Qin Feiyang? He smiled.
However, this smile was exceedingly bitter.
Knowing full well that Lin Chang was a profit-seeking opportunist, he had actually hoped Lin Chang would turn the situation around. How ironic!
Lin Han sneered with schadenfreude. Serves him right! So what if Lin Chang gets a big advantage now? Afterwards, with just a small price, I can make Lin Chang disappear from Yan City. When that time comes, as Lin Yiyi’s adoptive father, I’ll still be able to reap benefits.
The Yan King also breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Lin Chang nodded, then not even Qin Feiyang would have any reason to object to this wedding.
He smiled. "Brother Lin, please, take the main seat."
"Thank you, Yan King." Lin Chang cupped his hands and, chatting and laughing with the Yan King and the First Prince, walked towards the main seat.
The moment he sat on the main seat, his vanity exploded. He was utterly carried away and didn’t spare Qin Feiyang another glance.
The First Prince walked over to Lin Yiyi’s side and smiled. "Yiyi, don’t worry, I will definitely treat you well. Quick, get up. Behaving like this in public is too unbecoming."
Lin Yiyi slowly rose, looked up at Qin Feiyang, her eyes filled with despair, then wordlessly turned and returned to her seat.
Qin Feiyang’s heart couldn’t help but ache with stabbing pains! His hands were clenched tightly into fists!
The Wolf King said sinisterly, "Xiao Qinzi, Brother Wolf will go take out this scumbag!"
"No need," Qin Feiyang shook his head.
Lo Qingzhu said, "Now that Lin Chang has agreed, this matter is settled. Don’t cause a scene. If you really can’t bear to watch, then leave first."
"Settled..." Qin Feiyang fell silent, pondering.
Ling Yunfei patted his shoulder comfortingly. "Qingzhu is right. You’ve done all you can. I believe Lin Yiyi won’t blame you."
Fatty said, "Boss, let’s go!"
"All of you, step back!" Qin Feiyang suddenly ordered, his eyes exceptionally sharp!
Ling Yunfei and the others exchanged helpless glances and retreated to one side.
Yan Nanshan and the others also frowned and returned to their seats.
The First Prince stood up, looked at Qin Feiyang, and said angrily, "What more do you want?"
Lin Chang also said unhappily, "Feiyang, this Uncle knows you care a lot about Yiyi, but to keep causing trouble like this, isn’t it a bit inappropriate?"
"Uncle?" Qin Feiyang sneered. "Don’t be so familiar. I’m not close to you."
Lin Chang’s expression stiffened, and he was instantly plunged into an awkward situation.
The Yan King said, "Qin Feiyang, if you still don’t stop, I will have no choice but to ask you to leave."
Qin Feiyang’s gaze swept over everyone present.
All of a sudden! He grabbed his shirt and ripped it with a powerful tug!
RIIIIP! His clothes tore, exposing his muscular upper body.
The Yan King was instantly furious and shouted, "Qin Feiyang, do you realize that your current actions are a public humiliation to my royal family!"
Yan Nanshan and the others also frowned. This act was indeed indecorous.
"Look quickly at his chest! Why is there a white mark?" someone suddenly exclaimed.
"A mark?"
Everyone focused their gaze and indeed, there was a mark. It was shaped like a door and emanated a faint, hazy white brilliance.
But what is this mark? Did Qin Feiyang rip his clothes just to show us this mark? No, wait! This isn’t an ordinary mark! Could it be...
Jiang Zhengyi shot up, looking at Qin Feiyang in disbelief.
Seeing Jiang Zhengyi’s strong reaction, the others grew even more puzzled. Yan Nanshan also looked at him with deep suspicion.
Suddenly! It was as if he had thought of something. He too abruptly stood up, his eyes bursting with an aggressive glint. "This Hall Master understands now! That is the Potential Mark!" he enunciated each word, speaking as if with great difficulty.
"What!"
"Potential Mark!"
All the major figures, all the Family Heads, rose to their feet in unison, their faces filled with shock and horror!
This young man actually broke the Martial Artist Extreme State and opened the first layer of the Door of Potential! Unbelievable! Simply too unbelievable!
In a small place like Yan Province, the Martial Artist Extreme State was merely a legend. No one had ever broken through it. And now, the legend had become reality, standing right before them. The mental shock this delivered was, one could imagine, incredibly intense!
Even Ling Yunfei, Feng Ling’er, Lo Qingzhu, Fatty, and the others were dumbfounded. The Martial Artist Extreme State... they hadn’t even dared to dream of it. This guy is too heaven-defying! His talent in the Elixir Dao already left others in the dust. Now, even his martial arts talent is so astonishing. How are others supposed to compete? How many more secrets is he hiding?
Qin Feiyang’s expression was very calm as he retrieved a jade box from his Qiankun Bag.
Everyone’s eyes simultaneously focused on the jade box. They were all wondering, could his breaking the Martial Artist Extreme State be related to what’s inside this jade box?
Qin Feiyang opened the jade box. A rich medicinal aroma instantly wafted outwards.
"It’s an elixir!" The crowd’s gazes trembled.
There were a total of three elixirs, entirely blood-red, their Elixir Patterns shining dazzlingly!
Chief Li muttered to himself. Could these three elixirs have been refined from those medicinal materials?
"White-Eyed Wolf, come to me," Qin Feiyang called out, then turned and strode away.
The Wolf King’s eyes lit up, and he quickly followed.
They’re leaving? Everyone couldn’t help but be taken aback.
But the man and wolf didn’t leave; they walked a certain distance and then stopped.
Qin Feiyang turned to Yan Nanshan, cupped his hands, and said, "Hall Master, I’ll entrust this to you."
Yan Nanshan smiled bitterly. He really does what he says. It seems this kid won’t stop until he has completely ruined this wedding. However, I am truly looking forward to seeing if Qin Feiyang can actually break the Martial Artist Extreme State. No, wait! It should be the Martial Master Extreme State, the second layer of the Door of Potential!
He took a step and landed in the center of the square, a hundred meters separating him from the man and the wolf.
Qin Feiyang took out a Potential Elixir, looked down at the Wolf King, and asked with a smile, "Are you ready?"
The Wolf King, drooling, said irritably, "Nonsense! Hurry up and give it to Brother Wolf!"
Qin Feiyang smiled and handed the Potential Elixir over.
The Wolf King’s tongue curled out and swallowed it into his belly.
Qin Feiyang also quickly consumed a Potential Elixir, closed the jade box, and returned it to his Qiankun Bag.
AWOOO!
At that moment, the Wolf King suddenly howled. The muscles and bones all over his body bulged violently, and his eyes instantly turned blood-red!
Qin Feiyang was the same. His teeth were bared, his features contorted!
Both man and wolf felt as if countless steel needles were being ruthlessly plunged into their bodies, causing them unbearable agony! Blood even started to seep from every pore of their bodies! In almost the blink of an eye, both man and wolf were drenched in blood.
Qin Feiyang gritted his teeth. "Hall Master, begin!"
HUFF! Yan Nanshan exhaled, his expression becoming incomparably solemn. A terrifying pressure surged out from his body, transforming into a monstrous, raging wave that instantly engulfed the man and wolf!
For the man and wolf, this was undoubtedly adding fuel to the fire!
AWOOO! The Wolf King howled in agony. Its massive body trembled uncontrollably!
"Hold on!" Qin Feiyang shouted. The pain this time was tens, even hundreds of times more intense than when he broke the Martial Artist Extreme State! But he gritted his teeth and persevered!
The Wolf King roared, "Was your first time like this too?"
"Yes," Qin Feiyang nodded.
The first time, he had also taken a Potential Elixir. But there was a difference. The Potential Elixir Uncle Yuan had given him possessed dragon-shaped Elixir Qi! According to the Elixir Scripture, an elixir that produced dragon-shaped Elixir Qi far surpassed even Top Grade elixirs. It could be considered a divine elixir! Naturally, the effects of a divine elixir and a Top Grade elixir were different. That was why back then, he had only endured some pain before successfully breaking the Martial Artist Extreme State.
However, for the Top Grade Potential Elixir he had refined himself, the Elixir Scripture recorded that it required powerful external pressure as an aid. This pressure needed to work in concert with the medicinal effects of the Top Grade Potential Elixir, from both inside and out, to fully excavate one’s potential and break through the Extreme State. The pain involved was naturally incomparable to the first time. In fact, if one’s willpower wasn’t firm enough, it could prove fatal on the spot!
The Wolf King was now facing such a crisis because the pain was too unbearable. Deep within his heart, he couldn’t suppress the urge to commit suicide. That would be a release.
Seeing the dire situation, Qin Feiyang urgently used telepathy to roar at the Wolf King, "White-Eyed Wolf, even if you die, you have to hold on for me!"
"I can’t... Brother Wolf can’t hold on anymore," the Wolf King muttered, his voice filled with weakness and powerlessness. His consciousness was also being rapidly devoured by darkness!
