"So you're saying that killing Liu Feng will lead to a more complicated situation?" Li Yiran furrowed his brow, trying to make sense of everything that was happening. The system pondered for a moment and then replied, "That's correct, Master. The existence of the son of Destiny is itself like an unknown storm. Even if you have the power to end Liu Feng, it will trigger a chain reaction, leading to a more chaotic situation." Li Yiran contemplated this and found it enlightening. "So, you mean to say that I myself am also one of the uncertain factors?" The system responded, "Yes, your own destiny is equally full of mysteries. That's why your colour doesn't fit into those seven levels." Li Yiran began to understand that his very existence was a part of destiny, and no matter what challenges he faced, he would charge forward without hesitation. This was his destiny, and he wouldn't back down. However, Li Yiran wasn't in a hurry to take action. He knew he had to think carefully because destiny was a real and elusive force. Acting recklessly might bring unpredictable consequences, something he couldn't ignore. He also realized that to face this challenge, he needed to plan carefully. Perhaps there was a way to help him reduce Liu Feng's destiny points, as the system mentioned earlier. "Ding, publicly humiliating Liu Feng results in him losing ten destiny points, and your Fate Power increases by fifty." Fifty Fate Power is a considerable wealth for Li Yiran, which means he has more opportunities to improve his strength, cultivation, or enhance his talents and aptitude. This chance to "add points" is particularly enticing when compared to traditional cultivation methods. However, he is also aware that to win this dangerous game, he must be cautious and consider the consequences thoroughly to ensure he can control the situation. The audacity of Liu Feng to challenge the rules of the sect and show disrespect to Young Master Li left the Grand Elder unable to tolerate the situation. His imposing figure appeared even taller, and his square face exuded an aura of unyielding authority. In Xuan You Holy Domain, the Grand Elder was known for his impartiality, and he had previously seen potential in Liu Feng. However, the current circumstances left him with no choice but to order Liu Feng's confinement in the dungeon, awaiting Young Master Li's judgment. Young Master Li stood at the side with a cold and inscrutable expression. He had long planned how to deal with Liu Feng, and now, with the Grand Elder's permission, he nodded slightly in acceptance. At this perilous moment, he understood that he needed to personally intervene to maintain the sect's dignity and tranquillity. Young Master Li displayed no mercy towards Liu Feng; he saw him as an ignorant and laughable inner sect disciple. Although Liu Feng's destiny points were still high, Young Master Li had devised a plan to gradually weaken his destiny, turning him into a worthless presence. This chaotic situation was the opportunity he had been waiting for. As Li's oppressive presence dissipated, Liu Feng finally stood up, his face a mix of shock, anger, and humiliation. This moment unfolded just as Li had anticipated. Why, at this critical moment, had his Sifu inside the jade pendant not responded to his calls? Could it be that even his master was intimidated by Li's background? Liu Feng felt a chill in his heart, and his gaze turned icy. His beloved goddess remained silent and even actively served tea to Lord Li. All of this deeply hurt Liu Feng. Couldn't his goddess see the sacrifices he had made for her? He was willing to sever ties with the sect that had shown him kindness to her, but now, it seemed like she no longer cared. Liu Feng's expression made Wang Mengyao feel like her heart was being torn apart. She understood the misunderstanding, but she couldn't risk the safety of the sect or invite disaster. So, she could only bow her head, clutching her hands tightly, unable to meet Liu Feng's gaze. This decision weighed heavily on her, but she knew it was the only choice. "Mengyao, can you take me around later and maybe try some local cuisine? I'm really looking forward to it," Li Yiran's voice was full of anticipation, clearly showing his love for good food. He wasn't familiar with the local area, so he relied entirely on Wang Mengyao's guidance. Li Yiran's friendly attitude towards Wang Mengyao made her instantly forget her previous suspicions about him. His warm and genuine smile, as well as the respect and concern he showed in his words, made her feel very comfortable. At that moment, she completely forgot about her earlier worries about Li Yiran, as if the gentleman in front of her was an entirely different person. Wang Mengyao's face blushed slightly, feeling favoured. She agreed to his request. However, she then saw the teasing and playfulness in Li Yiran's eyes, causing her body to tremble, and her face turned pale. Li Yiran said this on purpose to make Liu Feng feel downcast. Others didn't understand the intention behind it and expressed envy of Wang Mengyao's luck. Meanwhile, the Xuan You Divine Lord hoped his daughter could seize this opportunity, whether or not she could be taken to the Upper World. It was still a precious chance. "Liyiran, you're utterly shameful! Bullying the weak shamelessly, have the guts to face me in battle, don't rely on your background to protect you! I will defeat you and make you lose face!" Liu Feng was furious, nearly insane, his eyes turning red. He found Li Yiran's behaviour increasingly despicable and couldn't help but shout in anger, his voice echoing throughout the entire hall. However, no matter how loudly Liu Feng shouted, no matter how he provoked and insulted, Li Yiran remained as calm as an unfathomable still lake, letting the storm rage but never uttering a word. He kept his gaze down, showing a tranquil demeanour, as if he were oblivious to Liu Feng's attacks, even leisurely taking a sip of tea as if none of it was worth mentioning. As Liu Feng's emotions reached their breaking point, he could no longer bear this immense humiliation. Suddenly, he coughed up blood and fainted, collapsing to the ground, unconscious. At that moment, the system sent a notification sound: "Ding, Liu Feng's state of mind is damaged, losing one hundred Destiny Points and gaining five hundred Fate Power." Li Yiran couldn't help but sigh in amazement. It seemed that acquiring Destiny Power was quite straightforward. He casually raised the teacup to his lips, appearing entirely indifferent to the situation.
