Chapter 264 Xie Feng vs Nangong Jun - A single attack! (1)

Several thousand kilometers away from where Xie Feng and the ancestor of the Nangong Family were.

Out on the rough sea, a group of people were standing quietly on the waves without a care in the world. Sharks of all sizes and even a giant whale could often be seen passing by them but not daring to do anything wild. Probably, the animal instinct inside them warned them that in case of disturbing these people, only death would await them in return.

This group of people were, of course, the ancestors of the other four main families, the patriarchs, and the younger people who had been taken with them to experience what true power was.

Even though the younger ones knew that the intention of the elders was to teach them to act with more restraint and to mitigate some of that innate arrogance they all had, the vast majority of them still couldn't help but tremble with emotion.

"This... How will we see from so far away?" Mu Yin asked as she looked at her surroundings. No matter where she turned her eyes, only water was all she could see; it was so much so that she was sure that if she was abandoned here, she probably wouldn't be able to find her way to dry land.

"No need to worry, girl of the Mu family. Since we brought you here, we naturally have our means." Said a gray-haired old man who looked a little older than the others. This old man, like the rest, wore strange clothes that probably could not be found in the whole world and due to their rarity would easily have a priceless cost because of their antiquity.

The old man's name was Gu Yating, the ancestor of the Gu Family. He possessed control over water and wind, as did Gu Pojun and most people born into the Gu Family.

"Water Mirror!" Gu Yating bellowed under his breath as he gently pounded the water beneath his feet.

Rumble...

The ocean several meters away began to shudder fiercely, startling everyone. But the most surprised was undoubtedly Xie Yao. She, who did not possess any power and was no different from a normal human being, knew perfectly well that if it were not for the fact that she was an important person to Xie Feng, she would never in her life have the qualifications to stand next to such powerful and important people, let alone witness such miracles.

What would her life have been like if she had not met Xie Feng in the past? Probably a disaster and at best she would have married some high society man and lived a normal life.... Just the thought of belonging to another man was enough to make her feel like dying on the spot. For Xie Yao, it was impossible to be with anyone other than Xie Feng; destiny would have somehow brought them together no matter what.... That was how she saw things.

BANG!

BANG!

BANG!

...

Wave after wave of water more than ten meters high rose skyward as the raging sea raged furiously. Most surprising of all, the waves did not fall back into the ocean after rising into the air and stayed there. But that was not all.

"An image is beginning to show itself!" Yang Li'er was like a newborn, entranced by everything. She didn't seem to care about anything and simply exclaimed in surprise as she gazed with sparkling eyes at the huge mirror-like water screen.

While seeing the image in front of his eyes, Gu Pojun smiled bitterly and shook his head, "As expected of the ancestor..."

Although Gu Pojun could raise waves hundreds of meters high and cause tsunamis using his control over water and wind, it was impossible for the current him to do something so delicate and sophisticated.

Gu Yating looked at him slightly and said softly, "You don't need to worry. You will be able to do it too someday."

Gu Pojun could only nod helplessly.

Actually, what Gu Yating did was something simple. Since Xie Feng and Nangong Jun were standing on layer after layer of ice, Gu Yating, being practically a true water god, could see what they were doing; after all, ice was water in a solid form. All Gu Yating did was project the image he was seeing in real time using wind particles.

"Who do you think will win?" Mu Xue asked to her daughter Mu Wuying.

Mu Wuying seemed surprised by her mother's sudden question, so she did not know what to say. However, she soon regained her composure and said with a smile, "How would I know, mother? I have never in my life seen such powerful people fight each other."

Mu Xue, without changing her expression, said softly, "Let me rephrase my question then.... Who do you want to win?"

Mu Wuying's elegant smile froze. With her intelligence, how could she not know what her mother was thinking?

Seeing her daughter not answering, Mu Xue snorted, "You want to play tricks on me, your mother? You're still too young, child." She looked around to make sure no one was paying attention to them and said with narrowed eyes, "I think you owe me an explanation.... Because if this is what I think it is, then.... *Sigh*..."

Mu Wuying could only nod silently. Really... A mother's eyes could see everything about her children.

On the frozen field of Antarctica.

"Alright, let's start!" Xie Feng shouted excitedly.

Without waiting for Nangong Jun's reply, Xie Feng lifted his face and looked up to the sky as he opened both of his arms wide. His eyes changed their color, turning partially golden.

"Destroyer Windstorm!"

BOOM!

The wind in the atmosphere suddenly became heavy, so heavy that people all over the world felt as if something bad was going to happen. A frightening explosion shook the sky over the whole continent of ice, so loud that it could even have been heard from some countries in Asia!

"Hahahaha!"

Xie Feng laughed out loud as he watched the clouds of wind converging. His body began to slowly float while gusts of wind constantly surrounded him.

That's right, wind clouds! The wind, usually invisible to the human eye, had become so dense in quantity that it formed clouds! More than 90% of the wind in the planet's atmosphere began to gather in the same place, leaving only what was necessary not to harm people's lives; but even then, the breathing of all living things became more laborious when they realized that the oxygen around them was beginning to move away!

Alarm systems in countless first world countries began to sound furiously and thousands of scientists went completely mad trying to find the source of the problem. However, all they knew was that gust after gust of air was rushing at full speed towards Antarctica; no matter if it was warm air or cold air, 90% of the wind was headed towards the same point. The men in white lab coats stared open-mouthed at the high-tech monitors showing the world map as the existing wind gusts as well as the newborn ones repeated the same pattern over and over again!

What happened!? That's what everyone was wondering in terror as several presidents sent drones followed by military jets to see what was going on.

Since most of Antarctica was unexplored, naturally the area where the event was occurring had not been explored either. But with a worldwide danger signal, no world power had any choice but to move.

Even China was no exception! With the absence of Gu Pojun and the other patriarchs, protocol orders began to be carried out one after another.

Somewhere in Europe.

A handsome blond-haired young man with green eyes stood in the middle of a beautiful garden surrounded by roses and all kinds of colorful flowers. The young man was about 24 years old and was currently wearing sportswear while waving an exquisite looking sword.

He was practicing his swordplay.

"Oh?" In the middle of his training, the young man stopped in order to look to the south; directly towards Antarctica.

"Heh..."A smirk appeared on the young man's face as he felt the obvious change in the atmosphere as if the whole world was rumbling. He continued his training while whispering, "Damn Chinese. Are you bored? Just wait, I'm sure the future holds many fun things in store for you."
