The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms Chapter 3100 - 3095: Star Elder’s Betrayal_1

Currently, a pair of Black Mountain Black Bears stood as a formidable guard for the Enlightenment Stage cultivator.

Not only was it impossible for anyone to lay a finger on him, but even moving through the area had become a struggle.

The Ice Crystal Lizard Lord had briefly considered fighting back, but upon attempting it, he realized the sheer futility of resisting these two Black Mountain Black Bears.

Despite possessing Dao Intent Inscriptions as high as 8,000 Dao, they proved useless against the twin giants. He was subjected to a brutal thrashing that left his entire body covered in wounds.

Even without their own Dao Intent Inscriptions, these two bears were ancient beasts endowed with staggering physical power and resilience.

Most crucially, the two clumsy-looking bears appeared to possess the talent to traverse space. Every time the lizard lord entertained a thought of fleeing, the Black Mountain Black Bears would instantly suppress him.

And then...

Working in perfect harmony, one bear would pin him down while the other rained down punches and kicks, before swapping roles.

The assault left the Ice Crystal Lizard Lord feeling a profound sense of despair; he was being tormented relentlessly without the mercy of death.

As the sovereign of the Ice Crystal Lizards, he had never endured such blatant disrespect or been bullied in such a manner.

The bear brothers seemed to grow fond of the exercise, continuing to pummel the lizard lord without any sign of stopping.

It was only when Yang Chen found the spectacle too difficult to watch that he signaled with a wave of his hand: "Alright, that’s enough, let it go."

At his command, the Black Mountain Black Bears ceased their assault and triumphantly hoisted the battered Ice Crystal Lizard Lord.

"Young Master, it has passed out," the bear brothers reported with pride.

Yang Chen offered a small smile as he tucked the Ice Crystal Lizard Lord into the Demon God Tower. He remarked, "The commotion you two caused here is likely to attract attention. Return to the Demon God Tower quickly. It is time for me to depart from the Cold Frost Ancient Forest."

Given the massive size of the bear brothers and the intensity of their clash with the Ice Crystal Lizard Lord, it would be a miracle if no one had noticed.

Consequently, Yang Chen sought a swift exit.

After all, with the resources he had gathered, restoring his Cultivation to the Nirvana Stage would be a simple matter once he returned and refined the necessary elixirs.

However, just as he prepared to leave, a particular sight within the Cold Frost Ancient Forest caught his eye and piqued his curiosity.

He squinted, finding the unfolding situation quite intriguing.

Deep within the thick woods, two factions were locked in a tense standoff. Among them was a familiar face: Liu Feiyan.

She was the Young Miss of the Liu Family, the one who had previously saved his life.

Currently, Liu Feiyan stood with a deep frown next to Star Elder, staring down the opposing group in a cold confrontation.

Yang Chen deduced that the other party consisted of members from the He Family, the other prominent clan in Yue City.

Since arriving in Yue City, he had learned about the local power dynamics. The He Family and the Liu Family were the two dominant forces, though the Liu Family was a more recent power. Because of this, they were often suppressed by the He Family, finding it difficult to fully eclipse them.

Recently, it seemed that unique circumstances had led to frequent and violent clashes between the two households.

This current scene was no different; both sides had their weapons drawn, and the air was thick with the threat of imminent violence.

"Liu Feiyan, why do you persist in this resistance? Your Liu Family’s strength is fundamentally weaker than ours. What is so wrong with marrying me? You would live a life of luxury, and our families would become allies. Why refuse such a deal?"

A handsome young man within the He Family ranks spoke up, his voice filled with arrogant laughter.

Liu Feiyan replied with a cold, wooden expression, "He Wenkui, abandon that thought. Putting aside your wretched character, do you truly believe your 'talent'—which was bought with elixirs—is enough to win my hand? Not a chance. You should take a long look at your own lack of morals."

"My talent? Not good enough for you? Hmph, Liu Feiyan, do not throw away the kindness I am showing you. To be honest, the Yue City quota promised by the Yunhua Sect will certainly go to my He Family! Do you know why? Because Venerable Tianhe of the Yunhua Sect has accepted me as his personal disciple. Hahaha! You claim my talent is inferior, yet why did Venerable Tianhe not choose you?" He Wenkui sneered.

"What!"

Hearing this, Liu Feiyan’s expression shifted violently. "Venerable Tianhe took you as a disciple? That is impossible. With your meager talent, there is no way he would accept you. It seems the rumors are true—the He Family ancestor must have indeed saved Senior Tianhe centuries ago."

"Hehe, believe what you want, but Venerable Tianhe is my master now. Does your Liu Family really think they can compete with us? You are delusional! Liu Feiyan, since you choose to be stubborn, you can die here today!" Red-faced with rage at her words, He Wenkui barked his orders.

Liu Feiyan did not flinch, stating firmly, "He Wenkui, you overestimate yourself. You think this group is enough to bring me down? Star Elder, you deal with that Evil Dog Taoist standing by He Wenkui’s side. I will handle He Wenkui myself."

Confidence radiated from Liu Feiyan; she clearly believed that defeating He Wenkui would be a simple task.

However, a strange look flickered across Star Elder’s face. After a brief, suspicious moment, he replied tonelessly, "Yes, Young Lady."

Liu Feiyan didn't notice his hesitation and shouted, "He Wenkui, you were the one who blocked my path, and now you want a fight? Fine, I will settle this with you today. Attack!"

At her command, the Liu Family retainers sprang into action.

Liu Feiyan tightened her grip, her eyes cold. "He Wenkui, it seems you’ve forgotten how I humiliated you before. If that’s the case, I’ll give you a fresh reminder of my sword techniques!"

He Wenkui’s face flushed with shame. Being reminded of his past defeat was his greatest weakness, primarily because it was the truth.

He was indeed no match for her, which was why she looked down on him as a useless man and refused his marriage proposal.

Hearing her bring it up again sent him into a fury. But just as he was about to retaliate with a curse, a dark smile spread across his lips.

Liu Feiyan was ready to strike, but her sharp instincts warned her of danger before she could move. Why was He Wenkui smiling so confidently? And why was Star Elder standing still instead of joining the fray?

"What is happening..." Liu Feiyan’s heart sank as she sensed a shift in the atmosphere.

Just as she tried to pivot, a powerful grip suddenly seized her, pinning her arms to her sides.

The person who had restrained her was none other than her own trusted subordinate, Star Elder.

"Star Elder, what are you doing?" Liu Feiyan demanded, her teeth clenched in shock.

Using his Enlightenment Stage cultivation to hold her fast, Star Elder licked his lips with a manic glint in his eyes. "Young Lady, do not blame me. If you had simply agreed to marry Young Master He, it wouldn't have come to this."
