393 Underestimating Shen Fei

At this moment, a Lin family elder looked at Shen Fei and said in a deep voice, “Don’t blame us for being heartless. You forced our hand.”

“Hmph, who set the Lin Family’s rules? If you have the ability, call those old fogies from the grave out. I’m already engaged,” Shen Fei said, and he flashed the ring on his finger.

The people from the Lin family were stunned, and their eyes were filled with doubt.

“My fiancée is the daughter of the mayor, Aloy,” Shen Fei continued coldly.

Upon hearing this, everyone in Tianzi Hall stared at Shen Fei in shock, especially Lin Yuansong.

“You… How did you get engaged to the daughter of the mayor?”

“I got engaged to her because we were childhood sweethearts. We have been engaged since we were babies. We only need one last ceremony to hold the wedding,” Shen Fei said.

“Don’t do anything rash about this. The mayor’s mansion has a powerful background. It’s not something you can provoke. Now, I still have something to do, so I’ll take my leave first.” With that, Shen Fei left.

As for the members of the Lin family, they were all discussing animatedly. Clearly, they were all very shocked by this. After all, they knew about the previously stale relationship between Shen Fei and Aloy. But Shen Fei had confirmed that they were engaged, which was naturally unbelievable. Still, the truth of the matter had been flashed in their face.

Lin Yasi stared wide-eyed in the direction Shen Fei had left. She quickly called to Lin Yuanhai, “Second Uncle, he’s leaving…”

“Hmph, this kid simply doesn’t know how to appreciate favors. He actually dares to refuse us. If he doesn’t kneel down and apologize later, I’ll make him wish he was dead.”

Lin Yuanhai’s eyes were filled with coldness as he glared at Shen Fei’s silhouette in the distance.

Suddenly, Lin Yuanhai changed his mind and slapped the armrest of his chair, shouting, “Brat, if I don’t let you have a taste of my power, you won’t know the dignity of the Lin family!”

In an instant, a loud explosion rang out. The elders all emitted terrifying auras and blocked Shen Fei’s path.

“What do you want?” Shen Fei’s cold expression swept across them.

An elder pointed at Shen Fei and shouted angrily, “Brat, my family is one of the eight great families of the empire. You dare to look down on us like this? I think you’re tired of living!”

The rest of them were about to attack Shen Fei, when…

Right at this moment, a terrifying nirvana realm aura pressed down. It enveloped the group, causing their bodies to tremble, but they stood rooted to the spot.

“Brat, what are you trying to do?” The group of Lin family members stared at Shen Fei. Their eyes were filled with anger.

“Didn’t you want to teach me a lesson? Come on!” Shen Fei shouted with disdain.

“I am the second elder of the Lin family. You…!” Lin Yuanhai shouted at Shen Fei.

“Your Lin family’s hospitality is really unparalleled.” Shen Fei smiled.

“Brat, I’ll show you how powerful I am.”

Lin Yuanhai summoned his spirit beast. A giant bear covered in black fur suddenly appeared.

“Roar!” The Great Black Bear roared, emitting a terrifying and fiendish aura. Its blood-red eyes stared at Shen Fei.

Lin Yuanhai looked at Shen Fei and said coldly, “Brat, it’s not too late for you to kneel down and grovel at my feet now!” The corners of his mouth curled up into a sinister smile.

Against the Great Black Bear, Shen Fei activated his astral soul and a star appeared between his brows. Instantly, the Great Black Bear could feel the pressure from Shen Fei’s astral soul. Its expression changed, and it looked extremely nervous and backed away.

“Flame Owl, Blazing Charge!” Shen Fei ordered.

The Flame Owl flapped its wings and rushed over. Although the Great Black Bear was powerful and had the strength of a nirvana realm cultivator, it was immediately sent flying back, along with its master, by the Flame Owl, an existence that might have surpassed the rank of an Emperor.

Lin Yuanhai spat out blood once he came to a crashing stop a good distance away in the courtyard outside Tianzi Hall.

Lin Yuanshu looked at his father, Lin Yuansong, and asked, “Why is that guy’s astral soul so terrifying?”

Lin Yuansong said solemnly, “This is a type of astral soul that is of a higher grade than the Emperor tier. It’s called the Fire Devourer astral soul.

“His Fire Devourer astral soul is strong enough to resist nirvana realm martial attacks. Not only that, it also has the ability to devour flames to evolve.”

Lin Yuanhai then said gloomily, “We’ve all underestimated him.”

“He actually has a fire devourer’s astral soul?”

The other elders were shocked. Then, they looked at Shen Fei with complicated expressions. At this moment, Shen Fei’s strength had reached the Emperor tier.

His Fire Devourer astral soul had also broken through to the Saint realm, comparable to a nirvana realm expert cultivator. Furthermore, Shen Fei’s Fire Devourer astral soul had been enhanced by a nirvana pill, and he had already evolved it into a fourth-tier Fire Devourer.

Traces of the Flame of Origin could be felt in his body. This Flame of Origin was the flame that he needed to burn when he used flame techniques. At this point, Shen Fei possessed five Flames of Origin right off the bat. If he used the Burning Flame Technique at the same time, his combat power would increase by several fold.

This also highlighted the threat of people called stellar alchemists. These alchemists could invent all kinds of flames. With different kinds of flames, one with a Flame Devourer astral soul could quickly increase their strength and even refine pills effortlessly.

This was the most terrifying thing about beastmasters who branch out into different fields of study.

“Great Black Bear, use Storm Art,” Lin Yuanhai shouted.

The Great Black Bear waved its palms. Endless gales erupted from its body and swept around the beast.

“Flame Owl, surround it with Flaming Bramble Inferno,” Shen Fei ordered.

Rumble!

Following Shen Fei’s orders, the Flaming Bramble Inferno formed an encirclement that trapped the Great Black Bear. After that, the Great Black Bear was continuously bombarded by fiery thorns. Its skin and flesh were destroyed, revealing its bones and skin.

However, the Flame Owl’s skill was still unable to completely destroy the Great Black Bear. Instead, the bear became braver with each setback.

After a fierce battle, the Great Black Bear was severely injured. In the end, it spat out blood and fell to the ground unconscious.

Looking at the Great Black Bear lying on the ground, Shen Fei’s eyes flashed with a strange light. Then, he punched the Great Black Bear’s chest.

The punch landed, the Great Black Bear’s body froze, and it coughed out a mouthful of blood. Its eyes were wide open.
