The sudden appearance of the Lord of Kunlun, who actually demanded that he become his subordinate right from the start?
And judging by his demeanor, if he refused, the other party would surely make a move against him.
For a moment, Du Fei fell into thought.
"Kid, you're simply ungrateful. It's your fortune to be taken in as a subordinate by the master. Instead of kneeling and showing gratitude, you're hesitating here?"
As Du Fei was contemplating, the masked man present spoke up.
A fortune to be taken in?
Du Fei was speechless upon hearing this.
The Lord of Kunlun before him had personally admitted to killing his two subordinates, Xue Shou and another, not long ago.
Following someone who would kill their own subordinates at the slightest disagreement was a fortune?
Was this black-masked fellow’s brain malfunctioning, or was there some issue with his intelligence?
As if guessing Du Fei's thoughts, the Lord of Kunlun chuckled, "Young man, are you perhaps thinking about how I killed Xue Shou and the other two?"
With his thoughts guessed, Du Fei did not refute.
"This world belongs to the excellent. As for those useless good-for-nothings, their existence is a waste of time."
The Lord of Kunlun's voice sounded as if he were stating the most ordinary of things, yet the cruelty within was chilling.
Two living lives were no different from straw in his eyes.
"I have already given you ample time. Now, you should state your decision."
"I refuse."
As the Lord of Kunlun's voice fell, Du Fei refused him immediately.
Following this, Du Fei could clearly feel the surrounding air filling with a murderous intent.
"Those who refuse me meet only a dead end."
After speaking, the Lord of Kunlun waved his hand at Du Fei.
As his hand moved, Du Fei immediately felt as if the air around him had turned into steel needles, constantly pricking his skin.
With the passage of time, this air even seemed to transform into an impenetrable wall, intent on crushing him into a meat paste.
No, I must find a way to save myself.
Du Fei then circulated the Wan Xiang Jue within his body at the fastest speed possible.
As the Wan Xiang Jue began to operate, Du Fei immediately felt his pressure lessen considerably.
In a flash, Du Fei broke free from the air that confined him and turned to flee.
Although fleeing might sound somewhat disgraceful, it was nothing compared to losing his life.
At this moment, Du Fei pushed his speed to the limit, and in the blink of an eye, he reached the edge of the unfinished building.
Just then, he felt a premonition and quickly rolled to the side.
With a bang, a huge hole was blasted in the spot where Du Fei had been standing.
Du Fei, after rolling away, did not get up and, without a moment's hesitation, leaped from the roof of the unfinished building, dozens of meters high.
If an ordinary person were to jump from such a height, it would undoubtedly be a death sentence.
But Du Fei was already a master of the Xiantian realm, so he naturally wouldn't die from such a fall.
As he neared the ground, he grabbed an outwardly protruding balcony to absorb the impact, then quickly let go and landed on the ground.
At this moment, the Lord of Kunlun and his subordinate were still on the roof of the unfinished building.
"Master, why did you stop me from taking immediate action to kill him?"
The subordinate of the Lord of Kunlun was very puzzled.
When Du Fei had shown signs of trying to escape, he had intended to strike and kill him immediately, but his actions were stopped by his master.
Despite being filled with great doubt, he naturally dared not disobey his master's orders.
The Lord of Kunlun slowly walked to the edge of the unfinished building, watching Du Fei below, who had just landed and was fleeing for his life, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
"Perhaps it's been too long since I've been out. I find this kid somewhat interesting, so I want to play with him for a couple more days before killing him. If you had acted just now, wouldn't I have lost a lot of fun?"
So, the Lord of Kunlun did not intend to spare Du Fei. Instead, he wanted to play with him like a cat playing with a mouse, toying with his prey before finally killing it.
...
After escaping from the unfinished building, Du Fei did not choose to run towards the city. In his opinion, a person like the Lord of Kunlun would have no moral principles in his heart.
As long as someone obstructed him, whether they were ordinary people who couldn't even lift a chicken, or the weak and the elderly, he would kill them without batting an eye.
Therefore, under these circumstances, Du Fei could only run towards the outskirts.
Running, running with all his might.
The reason Du Fei chose to flee immediately after breaking free, rather than attempting to fight.
It was because the Lord of Kunlun had merely waved his hand casually and trapped him.
He believed that if the other party wanted to kill him, it would be an easy task.
That's why Du Fei didn't foolishly choose to fight the Lord of Kunlun.
A battle only occurred when the difference in strength was not too great. The disparity between Du Fei and the Lord of Kunlun was simply suicidal.
Du Fei ran for a full hour, and he had already reached the border between Rongcheng and the neighboring city.
He looked behind him with some surprise, wondering why the Lord of Kunlun hadn't pursued him.
Logically, with the other party's skills, even if he hadn't initially expected Du Fei to escape, it shouldn't have been difficult to catch up after realizing it.
How come, even now, he hadn't seen any trace of him and his subordinate?
"What, stopped running? Planning to resign yourself to fate?"
Just as Du Fei was about to stop and rest, a voice sounded in his ear.
It was the Lord of Kunlun. Once you've heard his voice, you'll never forget it in this lifetime.
Upon hearing his voice by his ear, Du Fei could only continue to flee desperately.
As expected, Du Fei knew it wouldn't be so easy to escape the Lord of Kunlun's pursuit.
However, Du Fei found it strange. With his current acute senses, he had warnings within a thousand-meter radius.
But when the Lord of Kunlun's voice sounded in his ear just now, he hadn't sensed his presence at all, nor any trace of his aura.
Where was this fellow watching him from, or did he possess some special martial divine abilities?
After becoming a martial cultivator, Du Fei gradually came to understand that as a cultivator's realm increased, they were likely to comprehend or learn different martial divine abilities.
Just like Du Fei's X-ray vision ability was one such example.
However, the Lord of Kunlun's cultivation was far higher than his, so Du Fei couldn't speculate what his martial divine abilities might be.
But from their previous exchange, Du Fei could be certain of one thing: this Lord of Kunlun fellow did not seem to have any intention of killing him immediately.
Of course, Du Fei wouldn't think that the Lord of Kunlun was reluctant to kill him because he admired his extraordinary talent. Most likely, he was harboring some cruel plan or calculation in his heart.
After all, this was the impression Du Fei had of him.
