Epilogue - Desolate Valley (4)

eople eat together and drink, the women are the ones who pour the wine.On the contrary, women in China are the highest-ranking in the world. Many women control wealth, disdain their in-laws, refuse ho...Everyone was so shocked because this woman's identity was too special. She was actually the former valley master, Duan Feng.

He was undoubtedly a person of cold exterior and warm heart. Although he had become the Sect Leader, he did not make things difficult for Duan Feng. He simply imprisoned her according to the sect rules.

And as time passed, seeing that the other party remained unchanged, he relaxed his control more and more, even providing her with some cultivation resources later on.

Originally, Duan Feng's cultivation base was at the peak of Mahayana. He had been stuck at this level for many years. After being imprisoned, he could focus on his cultivation wholeheartedly, and his strength increased rapidly. Just three months ago, he made a breakthrough to the Tribulation Transcendence Period.

His expression changed abruptly, a mix of shock and anger. He then glared at her sharply: "Senior Sister, is this your son"

Duan Feng's face flushed red. Fu Haitao was her illegitimate son. For so many years, no one knew about it; she was truly ashamed to admit it.

Even now, his own son's life hangs by a thread, he could die at any moment. This is why he was forced to take action and save him.

She remained silent, which amounted to an admission. Zhongli was completely enraged.

Shameless! Audacious! Despicable!

Zhongli Mei was utterly furious. "Back then, when I was with Jue Ran, you kept spouting about the rules and regulations, insisting on executing us both!"

They say that those from Absolute Heart Valley cannot harbor such feelings, and that once they lose their chastity it will negatively impact their cultivation.

"Then tell me, where did you get this son of yours Is it possible for a woman to bear children without a man"

As soon as those words were uttered, the crowd around erupted in an uproar.

Yes, back then when Duan Feng served as the headmaster, he was extremely harsh and forbade any disciples from having romantic relationships with men. If caught, the punishment would be extremely cruel.

Even before this, everyone could understand, after all, this is limited by the rules. As the master, there is no fault in executing the rules.

Things are different now. The person who was so strict with others, demanding perfection from them, has given birth to such a large son himself.

And it is widely known that Fu Haitao is over fifty years old, which means he had an entanglement with someone else before being with Jue Ran and Zhong Limi, and even had a child out of wedlock.

Not only did she break the rules, but she also secretly gave birth and now wants to punish others. This is simply two-faced, a double standard taken to the extreme.

Even though Duan Feng had a thick skin, he was incredibly embarrassed at this moment.

She ignored Zhongli Mei and instead looked at Jue Ran: "Junior Sister, for the sake of our former sect affiliation, could you please let my son and I go"

"Don't call me junior sister, you don't have the qualifications to call me that!"

I am also furious at Duan Feng's despicable actions. Back then, if Ye Bufan hadn't stepped in, not only would I have been killed, but Zhong Limi would have died as well.

Duan Feng's expression changed several times, but in the end, he humbled himself: "Junior sister, all mistakes are mine. I beg you to show mercy and forgive me for the sake of our former master."

This person seems cold and heartless at first glance, but they are actually warm-hearted and kind deep down.

Though I deeply resent Duan Feng's past actions, as fellow disciples for many years, I ultimately couldn't bring myself to do anything about it.

You may leave, but he must be dealt with by the two young masters!

Letting go of Duan Feng was already the limit she could reach. Fu Haitao had offended both Ye Yao Mei and Ye Luo Shan, he absolutely couldn't be let off.

"So you're not giving me any face"

Duan Feng instantly changed his expression, saying that he would make a move and immediately punched.

He raised his hand and met the other's fist. With a loud bang, Duan Feng flew backward, grabbing Fu Haitao and running away.

It turned out the attack was a ruse, his real intention was to escape. But escaping wasn't so easy. Before he could take a few steps, Zhongli's sword light arrived.

Unlike her, he hated this woman with all his being. His attacks were merciless, each sword beam sharp and deadly, forming a huge net of swords that completely blocked her path.

There was no way he could leave. Faced with this predicament, Duan Feng had no choice but to abandon Fu Haitao. A bronze sword materialized in his palm, parrying the incoming sword strikes one after another.

Today's Zhongli, through years of cultivation and transcending the pinnacle of Great Perfection, recently...

At the initial stage of tribulation, the two were evenly matched in strength, and for a time, they fought to a standstill.

Before Duan Feng could even catch her breath, Jue Ran from behind had already made a move, striking her with a palm towards her heart.

Lest the night be long and dreams multiply, the couple joined forces.

He had already broken through to the early stage of crossing the tribulation over two decades ago. After so many years of cultivation, he had made significant progress and was only one step away from the middle stage of crossing the tribulation.

She alone is better than Duan Feng, let alone the two of them working together.

The scene was completely one-sided, and after just three moves, he could no longer withstand it.

Duan Feng put all his strength into barely blocking Zhong Li Mei's sword strike, but with his back exposed, he was hit by a punch.

If you get hit by this punch, you'll be seriously injured even if you don't die.

Just then, a man in black descended from the sky, completely shrouded in darkness, with only one eye visible.

He stood directly behind Duan Feng, raising his hand to intercept a decisive punch.

Their palms collided with a dull thud, the black-clad figure remaining unmoved.

...and flew backward like a cannonball, blood spraying wildly in mid-air, clearly demonstrating the vast difference in their power.

"Dare to hurt my woman!"

Seeing Zhongli Mè's utter devastation, his eyes bloodshot with fury, he charged forward like a madman, wielding his long sword.

His all-out strike with his sword went wide. The man in black vanished into thin air, only to reappear behind him, a single finger jabbing at his heart.

Zhongli was sealed, his acupoints blocked. His body stiffened and he fell to the ground.

Everyone in Jueqing Valley was dumbfounded. This man in black was too powerful. He had repelled Ju Ran with just two moves and subdued Zhong Li Mei. His cultivation was at least in the mid- tribulation period, or even stronger.

He struggled to get up from the ground and checked on Zhongli Mei's condition. He found that she was just sealed at her acupoints, and he felt relieved. He looked up and asked, "You... who are you"

The man in black ignored him and turned to Duan Feng and Fu Haitao, "How are you two Are you alright"

"Father, quickly capture those two little scoundrels and avenge me!"

After seeing the man in black, Fu Haitao instantly became energized and started shouting frantically.

As soon as he said this, everyone immediately understood that the man in black was Duan Feng's secretly found Dao partner.

"Two ladies, quickly leave!"

At this moment, he couldn't care less. With a roar, he charged at the man in black again.

Her purpose was simple: to sacrifice herself and buy the two of them time to escape.

Unfortunately, the gap in strength was too great. He was never a match for them to begin with, and now that he was gravely wounded, the black-clad man simply sealed his acupoints with a single finger, causing him to fall to the ground.

However, her sacrifice was valuable. Taking advantage of this gap, Ye Yao Mei pulled up Ye Luo Shan and rose into the air, flying towards the mountain below.

Fu Haitao was full of resentment: "Father, hurry up and chase after them, catch those two little scoundrels!"

"Well, I'll just run away then!"

The man in black did not pursue them, but pointed to Jue Ran and Zhongli Mei lying on the ground. "Throw these two into the dungeon first; we'll deal with the rest later!" black beams of light shot out from between them.A beam of light roared, black energy swirling around it, then transforming into a terrifying prison that enveloped everything.His move unleashed a powe...
