Feng Ying's

124 - Strength Increases

For a whole day, Feng Ying was still waiting for Wang Chen to absorb the power that entered his body. The wound he had gotten from Wang Chen's bite had now healed without leaving any scars at all.

It was already night and the dark sky was decorated by stars shining brightly. The moon also appears above the sky.

Feng Ying, "Why did he die so long ago?" he muttered in annoyance. He had long since waited for how Wang Chen would die later. But even today, the young man was still alive and breathing. This is so annoying. Feng Ying was waiting at this place because she wanted to see the show from Wang Chen's death later. He thinks it might be fun. It was possible that Wang Chen's body exploded and turned into pieces of flesh or other amazing things for Feng Ying. But all his thoughts did not materialize.

"Well..." Feng Ying let out a rough breath. He sat a little far away from where Wang Chen was at the moment.

Suddenly, Feng Ying sensed a wind blowing somewhat fiercely from Wang Chen's direction. He looked at the young man in surprise when he knew what was happening. "He.. That work?"

Wang Chen's face no longer showed a sick expression. He opened his eyes slowly and along with that, a strong wind instantly blew from Wang Chen's direction to the surroundings. He looked at both of his palms in disbelief. His strength increased greatly. Originally he was at the level of a 2-star general and it had already included a genius for the young man who had just aged the same as him. But now? He's even stronger. His strength was now at the level of a 7-star emperor.

The level of power in this world:

*Start\=1-9

*Qi condensation\=1-9

*Qi foundation\=1-9

*Master\=1-9

*Grandmaster\=1-9

*Warrior\=1-9

*General\=1-9

*Emperor\=1-9

*Earth\=1-7

*Sky\=1-7

*immortal

"He can withstand that power?" inner Feng Ying. He looked at Wang Chen carefully. If Wang Chen had the strength of a 7-star emperor level, then he had the strength of a 1-star earth level. He was stronger than Wang Chen. He could actually be even stronger than this. But because he did not want to throw away his life just to cultivate, Feng Ying rarely cultivated and was only at this level.

Wang Chen stood up. A happy smile bloomed on his handsome face. "This.. My powers are increasing.." His gaze also now led to the young man who had been sitting not far from himself cultivating. "Yin!" he ran with pleasure.

Feng Ying sighed sadly. He can't see any amazing show right now. The amazing event that he had imagined simply vanished when he saw that Wang Chen had succeeded.

Wang Chen was now standing in front of Feng Ying. He spread both his hands. "Ying, you see? My power is now increasing! Now I am at the emperor level! It's stunning! In just a short time, I can increase my strength!"

Feng Ying looked at Wang Chen gloomily, "Why don't you just die? I've been imagining how your death would have been amazing just now. But you made my hopes disappear."

Although Feng Ying seemed to dislike her who was still alive and seemed to want her dead, it did not make Wang Chen angry. He instead wanted to make Feng Ying even more annoyed, "But unfortunately.. I'm alive and breathing now. How then? This is my destiny. I was born to have great fortune." Wang Chen said proudly.

Feng Ying snorted in annoyance when she heard Wang Chen's remark. He stood up and faced Wang Chen. "Thank you'll me. But you also have to give me something. Thanks to me, you can become stronger as you are now."

Wang Chen raised both hands shoulder-high and shook his head, "I don't have any precious thing I can give you. After all, isn't it not worth it if I give you even the most expensive thing I have with your blood?"

Feng Ying thought for a moment. Indeed what Wang Chen said had a point. After this, Wang Chen would also have a twofold increase. So Wang Chen's advantage in his improvement was not just a one-time one. But next. It would not be comparable if Wang Chen returned the favor with just an item alone.

"Hm.. Then you should be my subordinate. Every command I give you is absolute. Even if the orders I give you endanger your life. Therefore, as my subordinate, you must grow stronger again. But I will still pay you. I won't order you to kill yourself either. Because it would humiliate me as your Master. Have a subordinate who died from suicide in vain? Heh! I don't want that to happen! Hows it? Am I not good enough?" Said Feng Ying with a smile.

Wang Chen smiled, "Ever since then, I've been yours, Ying. If you want that, I'll do it." His inner. "Alright, but I don't want us to look like masters and subordinates. I want us to be friends too. Ah, no–no.. But as a friend. How's it?" Wang Chen smiled.

"I don't need friends, let alone friends. You're pretty much my loyal subordinate." Said Feng Ying.

Wang Chen, "You will definitely need me as your best friend, Ying. With you being my best friend, then I will become a very loyal subordinate. I won't leave you when you're in trouble."

Feng Ying raised next to her eyebrows. He said lazily, "Huh.. Alright.. It's up to you."

"Didn't you hear me?! Oi! Stop that!" Said Feng Ying.

Wang Chen glanced back for a moment and smiled, "No.. I didn't hear you."

Feng Ying sighed violently. Finally he let Wang Chen continue to pull him.

***

After several hours of running, the two had reached the end of the stone field. But strangely enough, they reached the village. Why would there be an ordinary human being in a place like this?

Feng Ying and Wang Chen looked around. There is nothing strange about this place. It's just, this village looks bleak. The faces of the residents were not friendly.

"This place is so weird." Whisper Feng Ying.

Wang Chen nodded in agreement, "You're right.. The residents also look unfriendly. Has something happened?"

Feng Ying shrugged both shoulders, "Maybe it's true."

While the two were walking, they accidentally saw a crowd of people. The two looked at each other and finally nodded. They went towards the crowd from the side where there was no crowd.

There is a wall with a chain of necklaces and hand chains attached to the wall. A little boy with his hands tied by an iron chain, his neck. He was in front of the crowd and looked terrified.

"Why is he tied up like that?" Said Wang Chen in surprise.

"In accordance with the law in force in this village, the thieves will be put to death! Whatever little he took, he'll still be punished!" Said a man standing facing the poor little boy. He brought a wooden block.

"Yes! Punish him!"

"The thief's law!"

"Yes! The law!"

The screams of the people were heard. There were about 4 people standing in front of the little boy. They each carried a block of wood and seemed to be preparing to hit the child in front of him.

"What do they want to do?" muttered Wang Chen who was surprised to see that.

Feng Ying expressed her spirit. He seems to know what all this means. They want to punish people who have committed theft. As cheap or as little as the thief took, he would still be put to death. When you see the 4 people standing in front of the little boy with a wooden block, it is certain that the little boy will be beaten using a wooden block to death. It's like torture.

To Feng Ying, this would be an interesting and pleasant spectacle. Surely he would not prevent that person from punishing someone by torturing him to death. He even supports this. Even eager to witness.

"L-let me go... D-don't.. Forgive me.. Please.." The little boy spoke with a trembling voice. He was terrified to see the person standing in front of him and wanted to hit him.

"unleash? Heh! Thieves like you asking to be let go?! That's not gonna happen! We're not letting you go!" Say the man who is ahead. He gave the code to the other three.

The three nodded and alternately, they hit the body of the poor little boy. "Dirty! Wicked! It has no right to be forgiven!" Say one of them. Not only did he say that, but everyone else said so. They felt no guilt at all for what they did to the little boy. In their opinion, what they do is a good thing. "Dirty! Wicked! It has no right to be forgiven!"

Bughh Bughh Bughh Bughh

"Hiks.. Hix.. Hix.. S-sickness.. Hicks.." The little boy could only sigh and cry. But no matter how hard he tried to escape, he could not. Both his hands and neck were tied by a chain bracelet. He stole only two loaves of bread. But what he got was death. Is this comparable?

Wang Chen rounded his eyes at the incident. He wanted to run over and protect the boy. However, his hand was held back by Feng Ying. The young man knew he was going to help. "Don't bother them! Leave it! If you keep moving there, then we'll be in trouble. Because it's disturbing." Said Feng Ying.

"But I can't just keep quiet and watch it!" Said Wang Chen. He occasionally glanced at the little boy.

"That's what you have to do. Shut up and watch. No need to interfere in other people's business. Let them finish their own business."

"But–"

"It's orders. You must obey my words!" Feng Ying looked at Wang Chen flatly. He didn't like it when Wang Chen stopped this fun show. So he had to stop this young man first.

Wang Chen lowered his head. He glanced back at the little boy who kept crying. His eyes were glassy looking at the cruelty of the citizens. How could they do such a cruel thing to a child just because he stole? In fact, innocent citizens have done this. It was as if they were currently doing something good and right. Thieves should be punished.
