Upon hearing the warning from the Patterned Beast, Wang Xiaoqiang's heart tightened. With a thought, he moved the sleeping Dai Yu into the Sumeru Ring, then released the 20,000,000 Spiritual Springs from his body, disguising himself as if he were in the First Soldier Realm of the Immortal Sage. Casually, he sat cross-legged on the bed.

Soon, three figures, like phantoms, flashed into the room, almost forming a cornered stance, surrounding Wang Xiaoqiang—standing directly in front of him was Ling Feng.

Behind him and to his left were two students who were also in the First Soldier Realm of the Immortal Sage.

All three had sinister expressions, staring at Wang Xiaoqiang with eyes like those of dead men.

"Kid, today I'll show you the consequences of competing with me, Ling Feng, for a woman..." Ling Feng grinned fiercely at Wang Xiaoqiang.

"Yueyang Academy forbids private fights among students. Ling Feng, if you kill me, you won't survive either!" Wang Xiaoqiang feigned fear but stared directly at Ling Feng as he spoke.

"Heh, you're right, killing in Yueyang Academy means facing the consequences. But if I secretly kill you without leaving any evidence...do you think there's any need for repercussions?"

Ling Feng smirked coldly, triumph gleaming.

"Thanks for the reminder!" Wang Xiaoqiang said, hesitating no longer. With a thought, he reabsorbed the 20,000,000 Spiritual Springs, causing his Spiritual Power to surge within, transforming himself instantly into a powerhouse in the Second Soldier Realm of the Immortal Sage.

The three who were about to attack froze, and then the two students behind showed wary expressions, angrily and suspiciously questioning Ling Feng:

"Ling Feng, didn't you say he's in the First Soldier Realm? Why is he in the Second Soldier Realm of the Immortal Sage??"

"Ling Feng, you deceived us!"

Ling Feng was momentarily stunned, but he quickly regained composure and coldly said to them, "Don't forget the Pills I promised. If you don't help me kill him, you won't get the Pills! Besides, with the strength of the three of us, killing him is as easy as pie!"

The two students exchanged glances, then nodded, their hands shaking as Spiritual Power surged, each condensing a Divine Weapon in their right hands.

Seeing he had persuaded his two aides, Ling Feng calmly condensed two Axe Divine Weapons in his hands, and a third above his head.

Seeing the three combining to attack him, Wang Xiaoqiang felt immense pressure. Resolutely, he released the Demon Droplet, targeting the student on his left, while also releasing the Golden Shell from within his body to protect himself. He condensed two lightning-shaped Divine Weapons in his hands to resist Ling Feng.

The four nearly acted at the same time, executing attacks and defenses.

Poof!

The student behind and to the left had just started moving when his body shook—a Demon Droplet silently pierced his chest, tearing a bloody hole through his left chest.

The place it pierced was the heart.

Then the Demon Droplet exited through his back, expelling a bloom of blood as the student spit a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.

The student behind, wielding a Great Sword Divine Weapon, slashed toward Wang Xiaoqiang's head when the Patterned Beast leaped from Wang Xiaoqiang's back and crashed into him.

As Wang Xiaoqiang advanced into the Second Layer of Vajra Body, and recently broke through to the Second Soldier Realm of the Immortal Sage, the Patterned Beast's power also rose with the tide. It easily dealt with a cultivator of the First Soldier Realm.

Unprepared, the student was directly knocked backward by the Patterned Beast, crashing heavily against the wall, spitting blood froth.

After knocking the opponent flying, the Patterned Beast didn't stop. Before the student fell from the wall, it silently and violently rammed him again.

With a thud, when the student was struck by the Patterned Beast's massive body, he was nearly flattened like a pancake, blood spurting in a fountain from his mouth.

The Axe Divine Weapons in Ling Feng's hands and above his head almost simultaneously hacked toward Wang Xiaoqiang.

Wang Xiaoqiang's lightning-shaped Divine Weapons parried the two Axe Divine Weapons in Ling Feng's hands as he released the "Path of Courage" from within his body to block the third Divine Weapon.

Seeing this, Ling Feng regretted deeply—how could Wang Xiaoqiang think to use the "Path of Courage" for defense, yet I didn't consider using my "Way of Virtue" to attack?!

Otherwise, with just one strike, although not enough to kill Wang Xiaoqiang, it could leave him mortally wounded, then a second blow would finish him off.

As Ling Feng regretted, an orb from behind pierced into his body, causing him to jerk violently, then tremble intensely.

A Demon Droplet entered his body, boring into his heart. Inside, it spun rapidly like a meat grinder, reducing his heart to pulp.

"Hmm? I never expected a Demon Droplet could break a Blood Condensation Realm Body Refining Master's body..." Wang Xiaoqiang looked at Ling Feng, smiling with satisfaction.

Ling Feng continuously spurted blood, his eyes wide with fear, confusion, and unwillingness, still muttering viciously, "B-boy, you killed...killed me, you...you won't survive either..."

Wang Xiaoqiang chuckled playfully and said, "You warned me earlier. As long as the killing is stealthy and undetected, leaving no evidence, nothing will happen. Besides, you tried to kill me; my counterattack was just self-defense. Even if discovered, it's not a death sentence..."

Ling Feng's body continued to tremble, eyes expressing deep despair and malice.

Wang Xiaoqiang continued, "Once you're dead, Ye Junqing will no longer be harassed by you, and we can then develop our beautiful love, hahaha..."

After laughing, Wang Xiaoqiang watched as the Demon Droplet exited Ling Feng's chest, spinning rapidly like a triumphant general.

Ling Feng fell to the ground, eyes wide open—he died full of resentment.

"Dying so wretchedly, even King Yama in the Netherworld won't accept you! You'll only be a wandering ghost!" Wang Xiaoqiang kicked Ling Feng, then with a thought, the Demon Droplet burrowed into Ling Feng again, consuming his blood.

Soon, Ling Feng's corpse turned into a mummy-like husk.

Turning around, Wang Xiaoqiang saw the other two students also dead silently, the Patterned Beast majestically standing nearby, it had been silent throughout. Seeing this, Wang Xiaoqiang quietly exhaled a breath of relief.

Wang Xiaoqiang retrieved the Storage Rings from the fingers of all three, placing them in the Sumeru Ring. Then, with a thought, the Demon Droplet exited Ling Feng again, returning to the Sumeru Ring.

With another thought, the Patterned Beast pounced on one corpse, opening its maw wide, devouring the corpse, then repeated the process for the other two.

After swallowing the three corpses, the Patterned Beast belched contentedly, then returned to Wang Xiaoqiang's back, transforming into a tattoo. (To be continued.
