Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law

Ye Feng turned and stepped down from the platform, but as he walked, his mind was continuously pondering the matter of the Outer Battlefield mentioned by Sky-piercing. Up to now, he had not yet visited the Outer Battlefield, though he had heard of it from many people.

One thing was certain, the Outer Battlefield was definitely not the same as Earth now, and in fact, the two were different spaces altogether. Whether the Outer Battlefield was the legendary Alien Space-Time, however, was unknown to anyone.

Ye Feng guessed that it probably wasn't, considering that the Alien Space-Time was no ordinary place. It wasn't just home to a vast number of terrifying alien beasts but also various types of terrifying gases. For instance, the miasma that erupted from the Central Region Fallen Dragon Valley earlier originated from the Alien Space-Time.

At that time, that miasma was something even ordinary Divine Path Realm experts couldn't withstand.

If the Outer Battlefield was indeed that Alien Space-Time, then probably not many people would dare to venture into it for training and exploration.

Carrying full-hearted doubt, Ye Feng descended from the platform to his designated seat. At this moment, Boss Cao, with an excited face, said, "Not bad, lad. You really didn't let me down. Although the odds for you against Sky-piercing weren't high, it still made me a tidy sum."

Ye Feng paid no mind to the gambling enthusiast and instead turned to ask Second Sect Leader Shi Yehong beside him, "By the way, Second Sect Leader, how much do you know about the Outer Battlefield?"

Shi Yehong was caught by surprise, but he quickly guessed why Ye Feng was asking, probably because of what Sky-piercing had said. He smiled and responded, "Actually, the Outer Battlefield is something that you will soon come into contact with. In fact, earlier the Utility Pavilion had proposed that you lead the team to explore it, but it was postponed due to the Martial Dao Academy."

Ye Feng wasn't concerned about leading a team; what he cared about was the unknown Alien Space-Time. He then asked, "Second Sect Leader, does the Outer Battlefield have any connection to the Alien Space-Time?"

"There is a certain connection!" Second Sect Leader Shi Yehong frowned slightly, then continued, "The Outer Battlefield is not the Alien Space-Time in the true sense. Strictly speaking, it's a buffer zone between the Alien Space-Time and our space-time."

"A buffer zone?" Ye Feng questioned.

"Yes, a buffer zone. Oh, and there's also a huge barrier from ancient construction, the Great Wall of Heaven, which serves as the protective shield against the Alien Space-Time!" As the Second Sect Leader spoke, he paused as if he had more to say, but in the end, he chose not to speak further.

He wanted to mention that the small village in the Northwest, the reason they became historical criminals, and how that crime has endured for over two thousand years, was related to the Great Wall of Heaven.

However, Second Sect Leader quickly realized that since Ye Feng wasn't aware of this, the elderly man from the Northwest probably didn't want him to know too soon. Therefore, there was no need for him to speak prematurely and potentially provoke unnecessary thoughts in Ye Feng.

Deciding to end the topic early, the Second Sect Leader then said, "After the Martial Dao Assembly ends, the Outer Battlefield will be open to all nations. If you can win this Martial Dao Assembly, you will most likely lead the team into the Outer Battlefield for exploration and experience."

Ye Feng nodded slightly, thinking that since he would be able to enter it soon, there was no need for him to rush. However, he suddenly thought about Gai Jiuyou, who had been missing for some time with no trace to be found. Could it be that he had already entered the Outer Battlefield?

Moreover, there was Mu Tian, who had seemingly vanished from the earth. It was highly probable that he had already entered the Outer Battlefield too, as for characters like him, only the Outer Battlefield could be attractive enough.

"The Outer Battlefield... After the Martial Dao Assembly ends and the Martial Dao Academy of Xuanyuan Nation is established, and once the practice of Martial Dao among all citizens is promoted, I will certainly go to see its true nature for myself!" Ye Feng thought to himself silently.

At this moment, Grand Sect Leader Zhao Gongming had already announced the second group's turn to compete. This second group consisted of disciples from Sects of Ancient Martial Arts, the disciples of the Heaven Poison Sect and those from the Dao Sect.

As the name suggested, the disciples of the Heaven Poison Sect were masters of using poison. Normally, by reaching the Divine Path Realm, standard poisons would no longer affect them significantly, but if the poisoner was also of the Divine Path Realm and if the poison they used was derived from Divine Path Objects, then the situation was entirely different.

The disciple from the Heaven Poison Sect wore a russet-red long robe, and even their hair was red, with nails also painted a dark red hue, giving off an indescribable eeriness.

As for the Dao Sect, in a sense, was considered the foremost among the Dao Sects of the world. Kunlun, on the other hand, styled itself as the cradle of the Dao Sects, the heritage source from which all Dao Sects derived. They even boasted that even the current Dao Sect had branched out from Kunlun.

Therefore, in the Ancient Martial World, the relationship between Kunlun and the Dao Sect was often tense. It was common for disciples of the two schools to come to blows. Fortunately, the Dao Sect was located in the North while Kunlun was in the Southwest, and the two were separated by a great distance.

The Dao Sect disciple wore a Dao Robe and held a horsetail whisk, emitting an ineffable essence of ethereal detachment.

Ye Feng sat in his chair, staring unblinkingly at this Dao Sect disciple. He had no interest in the disciple from the Heaven Poison Sect, but he had to pay close attention to this excellent pupil of the Dao Sect.

In fact, among all the competitors, aside from that young man in white from the Four Great Ancient Clans, the disciple of the Dao Sect, as well as the disciple from the Sacred Mansion—that is, from the Confucian Sect—and a bald monk from the Buddhist Sect, these three were among those whom he was particularly watchful of.

The Dao Sect disciple carried himself with an air of calm and indifference. He offered a faint smile and said, "I am Dao Buhui of the Dao Sect. May I ask the senior brother for your esteemed name?"

Under normal circumstances, this would've been a courteous form of greeting, but to everyone's surprise, the Heaven Poison Sect disciple coldly snorted and retorted, "My name is not something a puny Dao Sect disciple like you is qualified to know!"

Presumptuousness, truly boundless presumptuousness. Of course, everyone could tell that the Heaven Poison Sect disciple's remarks were in imitation of what the white-robed youth had earlier said to Zhang Wenyuan. The difference was that the white-robed youth had the credentials to be arrogant, whereas this disciple's attempt seemed rather laughable in comparison.

Yet, Dao Buhui of the Dao Sect did not laugh. He simply shook his head slightly, his expression still neither sad nor happy. Ye Feng could tell at a glance that this man's state of mind was exceptionally stable, and of course, that also meant he was an extremely difficult opponent to deal with.

"If that is the case, I, who am unskilled, ask for senior brother's instruction!" Dao Buhui flicked his horsetail whisk and gestured invitingly with his body.

The Heaven Poison Sect disciple snorted coldly and warned, "Let me make it clear beforehand, our Heaven Poison Sect is proficient in using poison, and some poisons even we may not have an antidote for. Even if there is an antidote, if treatment is delayed even for a second or two, it could cost a life. So before we begin, you'd better think carefully.

It's not too late to concede defeat now and save yourself from throwing your life away!"

Despite the extremely arrogant and threatening statement, Dao Buhui showed no anger, only calmly smiled, and said, "Please, senior brother, go ahead and enlighten me. I am not talented but would like to experience your superior skills!"

"So be it, but don't blame me then!" The Heaven Poison Sect disciple roared angrily, and his whole body suddenly erupted with a thick dark-brown aura. This terrifying presence sent the dark-brown color out like a violent storm, charging directly at his opponent.

Dao Buhui, however, remained standing in his original spot, unmoving. As the dark-brown wave of Qi approached, he just raised his hand slightly and with a gentle flick of the whisk in his hand, the rolling dark-brown poison mist was swept clean in an instant.

The Heaven Poison Sect disciple's complexion changed drastically at this scene; he finally realized he had encountered a formidable opponent. Biting his teeth, a dazzling light burst out from above his head, and immediately after, a ferocious Heavenly Scorpion appeared.

Its entire body was covered in golden yellow scales, indestructible, making it evident at a glance that it was no ordinary object—it must be the Heaven Poison Sect disciple's Divine Path Object.

"Go!" The Heaven Poison Sect disciple pointed with his right hand, and the golden yellow scorpion flew out at breakneck speed. Even more dreadful was the rolling red mist it emitted wherever it passed.

This red mist was undoubtedly a deadly poison, and just a slight whiff of it could overwhelm even a Divine Path Realm expert. Furthermore, it could directly corrode a Qi Strength Shield, which was quite terrifying.

Still, Dao Buhui remained standing in the same spot, motionless. As the red mist was about to engulf him, he suddenly took a deep breath, causing his Dantian to swell like a bellows.

Then, he opened his mouth wide and exhaled a long breath. Instantly, a terrifying wave of Qi Force burst forth like a tsunami, dispersing the red mist in the air and sending the scorpion reeling uncontrollably, unable to advance.

"That's the Qi Wave Technique of the Dao Sect, what a formidable Qi Wave Technique!" Second Sect Leader Shi Yehong exclaimed in admiration.

Ye Feng silently nodded in agreement. Frankly speaking, Dao Buhui of the Dao Sect was indeed very powerful. Even when facing the promising youth of the Heaven Poison Sect, he had not yet exerted his full strength.

At that moment, Dao Buhui surged upward like a rocket from dry land. With one sweep of his whisk, a golden ray of light, like lightning, struck towards the Heavenly Scorpion.

In the next instant, the scorpion, hit hard, plummeted to the ground. After struggling for a moment, it lay motionless.

The Heaven Poison Sect disciple immediately spit out a mouthful of blood. With his Divine Path Object, the Heavenly Scorpion, destroyed, he naturally suffered a backlash and was seriously injured.

After Dao Buhui landed, his expression remained very calm. He folded his hands and said, "I feel ashamed. Senior brother, you must have been careless to let someone as insignificant as myself win so fortuitously. I admire the power in senior brother's techniques!"

The Heaven Poison Sect disciple, originally full of anger ready to erupt, found himself unable to say anything in response to those words. He could only give a cupped fist salute and, with a dejected head, leaped off the stage—effectively conceding defeat, making Dao Sect's Dao Buhui the victor.

Boss Cao Yi, upon witnessing this, couldn't help but think to himself, "This Dao Buhui of the Dao Sect seems quite capable. Ye Feng, what about you? Do you think you would have a chance against him if you encountered him?"

Ye Feng simply smiled lightly and said, "If I were to face him, you can bet all you own on me!"

Boss Cao immediately burst into laughter, slapping his thigh and exclaiming, "Good! With that word from you, I know what to do now!"
