After all, this phantom of the Three-Headed Hellhound was condensed from a single drop of the true Hellhound's blood. Moreover, who knows how much its true power had weakened over the long ti it existed within the Blood Moon Stone. Thus, when Chen Fei truly unleashed his full strength, he quickly shattered and suppressed the phantom.
Subsequently, with a single hand sign, Chen Fei used a spell to capture the pure energy dispersed from the shattered phantom, slowly rging it into the Mystic Stone Mirror.
BOOM! The Sanyang True Fire surrounding the Mystic Stone Mirror instantly blazed upward! It looked as if it was about to burst through the ceiling of the secret chamber and burn a hole clean through.
An astonishing aura slowly emanated from the area swept by the flas.
I truly hit the jackpot this ti. I never expected this wasn't an ordinary Blood Moon Stone, but one that had been transford by the blood of the legendary Three-Headed Hellhound from Western mythology! If the energy from the Blood Moon Stone and that drop of Hellhound blood can be completely rged into the Mystic Stone Mirror, it will definitely ascend to a Mid-Grade Magical Artifact! It might even reach the pinnacle of the Mid-Grade Magical Artifact rank.
Looking at the area enveloped by the Sanyang True Fire, Chen Fei, Young Master Chen, was drenched in sweat and pale, but a brilliant smile of excitent and satisfaction still graced his face. The Blood Moon Stone was an unexpected surprise on his trip, but he never imagined it would be this imnse.
In its true form, the Three-Headed Hellhound from Western mythology probably wouldn't be much inferior to even the super-powerful high-level spiritual beasts of the Cultivation World. What could this be, if not an overwhelmingly huge surprise!?
「An entire night quickly passed.」
Chen Fei walked out of the secret chamber, looking weak.
"Mr. Chen, your face?" Ovilia, who had been waiting at the secret chamber's door, looked startled upon seeing Chen Fei's pale and weary expression.
"I'm fine, Duke Ovilia, don't worry. I've never felt better," Chen Fei said, his voice brimming with excitent.
He couldn't help it. After a night of 'hard battle,' his Low Grade Magic Artifact—the Mystic Stone Mirror—had successfully evolved into a Mid-Grade Magical Artifact! It was now powerful enough to be irresistible to an ordinary sixth-level Qi Cultivator, let alone an sss Level expert, a Blood Clan Prince, or a new Later Stage of Innate Realm Ancient Martial Artist... How could he not be excited!?
The Mid-Grade Magical Artifact in Yan Zhen's hands, the Quick Freeze Pearl, had made him envious for a long ti. Now, this 'new' Mystic Stone Mirror that he had personally refined was at least twenty to thirty percent more powerful than the Quick Freeze Pearl. At this thought, the excitent in his eyes grew even more intense!
"Mr. Chen, you've finally co out. However, I received so not-so-good news last night," remarked Duke Babidi, who had also arrived, a worried look on his face.
"Oh? Not-so-good news? What do you an?" Chen Fei asked, raising an eyebrow with a curious smirk.
"It's like this."
A complex expression appeared on Duke Babidi's face as he said with a wry smile, "Last night, Bread went to plead with his grandfather, and he brought back reinforcents: Grand Duke Rexham of our Ashford Family. You know him, don't you, Duke Ovilia? Among the Grand Dukes in our Ashford Family, his Combat Power ranks in the top three. He is also Elder Nemosin's number one general!"
"What? Bread actually brought Grand Duke Rexham from your family?" Hearing this, Ovilia's face changed dramatically, his expression turning grim with panic. He clearly knew how formidable Grand Duke Rexham was.
"Number one general? Sounds pretty impressive," Chen Fei responded with a laugh, completely unconcerned. "But whatever, let him co. We'll just deal with them all at once when the ti cos; one more makes no difference. Duke Ovilia, prepare yourself. It's about ti we left."
Duke Babidi was taken aback, unable to comprehend the source of Chen Fei's imnse confidence. He finally couldn't hold back any longer. "Mr. Chen, even if your strength ans you aren't afraid of Grand Duke Rexham, there's still Grand Duke lissa from the Nuo Weiya Family! Facing two opponents at once is a huge disadvantage for you. Not to ntion there are several other Duke-level experts besides them, which puts you in an even worse position.
"Otherwise," he paused, revealing his true intentions, "why don't you and Duke Ovilia go stay at Elder Vance's place for a few days? I believe with Elder Vance backing you, Bread and Vivian wouldn't dare to act rashly."
Chen Fei hadn't expected this. On the surface, the alliance between Bread and Vivian seed formidable, yet Elder Vance was still willing to stand up for him. Puzzled, he asked, "Duke Babidi, forgive my bluntness, but does your Elder Vance really need to get involved in this thankless matter for my sake?"
"This..."
Duke Babidi was clearly not expecting such a direct question. He gave an awkward smile, then bit the bullet and admitted, "Actually, Elder Vance wants to take a gamble."
"A gamble?" The confusion on Chen Fei's face intensified.
If it were before, when I'd only offended Bread, it would have been understandable for Elder Vance to want to win over. But now that even Vivian is involved, wouldn't Elder Vance's intervention be going too far? Would it even be worth the cost? After all, behind Vivian is one of the two great pillars of the Nuo Weiya Family, a powerful Blood Clan Prince. Was it really necessary for him to get involved before I've even shown much of my hand?
Wait, could it be... A na suddenly ca to Chen Fei's mind: Old Howard, the Ashford Family's Blood Clan Prince with whom he'd had a brief conflict. If that old guy had revealed sothing in private, then it was indeed possible.
"Elder Vance puts it this way: He fears that Vivian has already beco very close to Bread, making it virtually impossible to win her over. With you, however, there is still a chance to gamble. At your age, you possess such formidable strength, and the Brad Family also values you so highly. It seems likely that your background is not simple, is it?" Duke Babidi's frankness slightly took Chen Fei aback.
He then smiled slightly and said, "I'm flattered that Elder Vance thinks so highly of , but there's no need for us to stay. Since I dared to say what I did yesterday, I'm certainly not afraid of Bread and Vivian. If they're looking to die, they're welco to try." As he spoke, a cold, mocking light glinted deep in his eyes.
I don't like to bully the weak, but so people are just too blind to see reason, leaving no choice. I'll just consider this 'eliminating a public nace.'
"Well... all right then." Duke Babidi hesitated for a long mont but ultimately decided not to press the issue.
Indeed, Chen Fei must have had one of two reasons for daring to utter such words yesterday: either he was a fool, or he truly had the confidence to back them up.
Just as Chen Fei stepped out of the secret chamber, almost every eye within the Ashford Family's underground castle fixed upon him. They all wanted to see if the Easterner who had dared to offend both Bread and Vivian to their faces would truly be as defiant as he had claid. Yesterday, in front of everyone, he had boasted that he would leave the Ashford Family's grounds early this morning.
Everything was unusually quiet, like the calm before a storm.
All eyes were riveted on the castle's entrance, unblinking.
「Then, around nine in the morning, a group of people slowly erged from the Ashford Family's underground castle, and everyone was astonished!」
It was the people from the Brad Family, and Chen Fei himself!
He really dared to co out!
