Chapter 249: 249
Chapter 249 Allocation
The hostile atmosphere on the mountain path faded following Lu Feng’s departure as the churning Genesis Qi gradually calmed down .
Gu Hongyi flew to Zhou Yuan’s side . She bit her red lips as she watched Lu Feng leave, before looking towards Zhou Yuan with apology in her eyes .
How could she not know that she was the reason why Lu Feng had attacked Zhou Yuan .
If she had not practiced the Ethereal Form technique with Zhou Yuan, Lu Feng would not be hostile towards the former .
Zhou Yuan smiled at Gu Hongyi as he waved his hand . “Our characters conflict with each other . Even with you out of the picture, a clash will likely be unavoidable in the future . ”
Lu Feng was just too damned arrogant, believing himself far superior to others . He may appear uncaring and nonchalant on the surface, but the truth was that he looked down on everyone else, and even more so the non Shengzhou disciples .
Many disciples would show a lowelier posture when they encountered Lu Feng, but this was something Zhou Yuan could not do . In addition, although he was not someone that constantly seeked out trouble, he did have his own sharp edge .
Once Zhou Yuan and Lu Feng came into contact, the two would be akin to two needles, making the other uncomfortable .
Therefore, Zhou Yuan felt that even without Gu Hongyi, conflict would easily arise between him and Lu Feng .
However, Gu Hongyi took it as if Zhou Yuan was only consoling her . “Don’t worry, although Lu Feng does have some powerful and influential people behind him, if he dares to deal with your through them, I will not just stand by and watch . ”
Zhou Yuan chuckled and said, “He only brought them up to intimidate me . Given his proud character, it would be humiliating for him to seek their help just to deal with me . ”
Gu Hongyi gave a slight nod of agreement . She hesitated somewhat, before she asked, “Then… will I still be able to learn the Ethereal Form technique with you?”
She was not someone who liked to implicate others, but without Zhou Yuan’s aid, a lot more time and effort would be needed for her to reach the second level of the Ethereal Form technique .
Zhou Yuan laughed softly before he responded, “I just said earlier that as long as you’re willing to come, I’ll be willing to teach . No one can change my mind . ”
He did indeed hope to create ties with Gu Hongyi . After all, it no good to only offend others, friends were also very important .
Gu Hongyi’s eyes seemed to give off a happy glow . Zhou Yuan’s decision to continue guiding her also meant that he was ignoring the pressure from Lu Feng . From a certain point of view, it meant that Zhou Yuan had chosen her over Lu Feng .
However, she would not let Zhou Yuan bear the pressure from Lu Feng .
“Zhou Yuan, if Lu Feng tries anything funny, feel free to come find me . I will settle him for you . ” Declared Gu Hongyi .
Zhou Yuan did not reply when he heard this, merely smiling in response .
“As long as he does not shameless bring out all the people he spoke of earlier, I'll receive any moves he comes at me with . It just so happens that I'm also interested to experience for myself how good our number one outer mountain disciple is . "
Although his tone was calm, there was a faint iciness contained deep within it . The things Lu Feng had done today had clearly already angered Zhou Yuan .
Upon hearing that Zhou Yuan intended to cross swords with Lu Feng, worry bubbled within Gu Hongyi as she hurriedly tried to caution him . “You shouldn’t underestimate him . Lu Feng is very strong, and has a tremendous amount of rallying power amongst the Shengzhou disciples . ”
“Relax, I will not underestimate anyone . Although Lu Feng is strong, if he believes I’m a soft persimmon, I’m afraid that he will crack his teeth…” Zhou Yuan waved his hand, indicating he did not wish to speak any further on the topic . He then continued on his way along the mountain path .
As she watched him leave, Gu Hongyi clenched her teeth as she mumbled, “Why are you trying to act cool at a time like this…”
She then turned her head, looking towards the direction Lu Feng had left in earlier as iciness flitted across her eyes .
“Lu Feng, you’d better not push your luck . You should know of my temper…”
. . .
Night enveloped the outer mountains .
However, numerous figures were gathered in a certain little house . The most eye-catching amongst the group was a young man dressed in white, Lu Feng .
Lu Feng sat in the center, the surrounding gazes containing a trace of respect when they looked towards him .
As the undisputed number one amongst the outer mountain disciples, Lu Feng commanded a tremendous amount of support and respect amongst the outer mountain disciples .
There were currently dozens of disciples present, all of whom were first class disciples while also from the Shengzhou continent . They could be said to be the elites amongst this batch of outer mountain disciples, making them the strongest disciple faction in the outer mountains when gathered like this .
In the face of their might, any of the other outer mountain groups could only give way .
“It’s rare for you to invite us over old Lu . There must be something you want to tell us today, right?” Yang Xiu had a wide grin plastered across his face . He was likely the only one present who could address Lu Feng in this manner .
