"Kneel."
Just as Yang Feng said this word, everyone from the Cheng Family was forces to their knees, as the pressure on them incresed. It didn't matter if they were at the Immortal Ascension Realm or the Transcendent Realm, all of them were forced to kneel and try as they might, they just couldn't ignore the words.
'this is the second time I've seen the kid do this. Just what is this power.', Meng Wu Ya thought to himself as he still remembered the feeling he felt just now, before he was freed.
Yang Feng's eyes then again focused on Cheng Young Master who was now convulsing and moaning on the ground, having been force to eat the potent Aphrodisiac that he had tried to feed to the two young women.
"You know, I tried to scare you before when we entered the main hall previously and I noticed you looking at my women. I believed that that would have been enough to make you understand not to do anything shady, but looks like a dog's tail will always remain twisted."
The clan members eyes widened as they heard Yang Feng's words and were now internally cursing their Young Master for his foolishness.
"...And now, there shall be ... consequences."
When Yang Feng finished his words, he stepped on the hand of the Young Master, who had started to thrash around because of the pain from the pressure on his hand and the Aphrodisiac. While the Clan Head shouted "stop!!!"
Suddenly, *Creakkk* *AAAAHHHHHHH!!!!* a sickening creak sounded throughout the hall along with the young master's howl, the two voices silenced everyone as they looked on in horror. They watched as Yang Feng's feet completely and utterly crushed the young master's hand, which made blood and small piece of what looked like muscles and bones fly around, though Yang Feng remained untouched by it all.
Yang Feng then calmly raised his feet form the young master's hand that looked too bloody and mushy to look at. Yang Feng looked at the young master who was screaming his heart out and stated, " Seriously why are people like you so weak-willed, we just started and your already screaming so loudly... But"
He continued with a grin on his face," .... This is also what makes it more enjoyable to torture people like you."
With that Yang Feng stepped on his forearm, just above where he had previously places his feet. *Creeeaakkk* and again a creak sounded along with the Young Master's scream.
Everyone looked on in abject horror as Yang Feng continued to raised his feet and repeatedly crushed the Cheng Family Young Master's body again and again, while the Clan Head tried to stop him by shouting.
Many had already pissed their pants as they watched the demon do his handiwork. Even Su Yan and Xia Ning Chang looked a bit disturb by the site in front of them as which ever part of the young master's body Yang Feng stepped on, it would flaten out and blood and mush that looked to be the muscles and such would burst out.
This happened because Yang Feng wasn't just putting pressure on his body to break his bones. What he was doing was sooo much worse. He was using his feet (shoes) to send his Qi into the Young Master's body and along with the strength of his body, this Qi and strength would then go through all the parts of body directly under his shoes and go through multiple procedures.
First, the skin would be penetrated and shredded from the inside out which would make the young master feel like millions upon millions of ants were crawling and eating that part of the skin.
Secondly, the Qi would fill into his muscles causing them to stretch painfully before they reach a certain point at which the muscles would simply burst open like a balloon.
Thirdly, the pressure applied on his bones would slowly crack them and the Qi would ensure that every single bone under the pressure be full of cracks and finally the bones would shatter them into countless small fragments.
By this time, the Young Master's injuries would have been incurable unless he somehow found a treasure to fix his body. But Yang Feng wasn't satisfied by this, so he went a bit further.
He let his Qi enter his Veins, that are also the pathways for his Qi to travel through his body, and cause them to burst in the most painful way possible. By doing this, Yang Feng had basically turned the guy into a cripple, unless he finds a treasure on atleast Peak Origin King Level that would completely remake his body.
Yang Feng was able to do all this so easily because of his in-depth knowledge of the Human Body through his Body Cultivation and alchemy knowledge (high level alchemists have not only refining and herb knowledge, they are also very proficient in Fire Laws, Poisons, human body and soul or spiritual energy.)
Though Yang Feng did this, his focus wasn't to actually make the guy a cripple. What he wanted to do was simple, he wanted the guy to suffer the worst possible pain, before Yang Feng killed him. A pain that the guy did feel. But if all that wasn't enough, the aphrodisiac that had entered his system started to make him experience extreme pain in his nether region which continued to accumulate as time passed.
A hour later, Yang Feng grew bored of crushing the young master's body. In this time, Yang Feng had crushed his limbs and a few more places on his body, because of which blood and his various other matters were now splashed on the surrounding ground.
By now his throat had swelled from all the constant screaming and he could only wimper now. Although the guy was reduced to such a state, he was still alive, though barely.
Yang Feng then shifted his gaze towards the other members of Cheng Family, all of whom shuddered when he did. But there was one that had a different look.
The Clan Head looked at him with a look of pure hatred. If looks could have killed, Yang Feng would have died hundreds of times already. Ever since Yang Feng had started to maltreat the young master, the Head had been trying to move and save his son but couldn't. He could only watch as his son was reduced to a mess of flesh and blood, as the demon kept him alive, but ensured that he felt the worst possible pain.
Yang Feng thought to himself, 'well, I guess it's time to wrap this up.' it has been an hour since he had started this torture on the Young Master while also holding the 9 members in place with his Emperor's Might, which has been constantly draining on his spiritual energy.
His gaze then shifted to his own group. Yang Feng had thought that they would have gone away a bit, but the three surprisingly remained.
Meng Wu Ya looked normal, the man had lived for nearly a thousand years so he had seen his fair share of things. Su Yan although a bit shaken, was still fine as she also understood what would have happened if Yang Feng wasn't here.
Xia Ning Chang on the other hand was shaken the most. Although she had grown more accustomed to killing then she was since Yang Feng encouraged her, this was the first time she had seen such gore and brutality, which was slightly unbearable for her still kind and gentle personality.
Yang Feng looked at her and said with a sigh and a strained smile, "this is what happens in the outside world, Cheng'er. If you weren't immune to the affects of the aphrodisiac because of your physique, I don't think I have to tell you how you would react, right?"
Xia Ning Chang looked back into his eyes as she slowly nodded. Yang Feng smiled softly a bit and said, "remember one thing when dealing with people hostile to you, Chang'er. In this world, being forgiving to the enemy is being cruel to oneself."
Saying that Yang Feng manifested a pale gray flame on his hand and threw the flame towards the yound master, specifically towards the young master's nether region.
All the men in the room cringed hard at the shout that followed, which sounded like the shrieks of a wounded pig about to be butchered, as the flame touched and burned his nether region.
"Noooooo!!!", another shout sounded this time from the Clan Head who watched as the flame started to consume his son.
All the while Yang Feng looked on coldly as the flames reached the neck of the young master and said, "you should have taken the clue and back off. These are the consequences for desiring my wives (women)."
"Ahhhhhhh!!!! I will kill you, you bastard!!", Yang Feng turned to the Clan Head who was frantically trying to move, causing the strain on Yang Feng's spiritual energy to increase. Yang Feng didn't respond to his threat, he simply flicked his hand and 9 more blobs of flame separated from the flames burning the young master's body and fell upon the 9 remaining Cheng Family members.
The four looked on as the flames consumed them all and in minutes burned them alive. The 9 couldn't do anything to stop the flame. They tried to use their Qi to protect themselves but the flame absorbed the Qi and strengthened itself. While 2 of the 9 who were proficient in flame control had tried to control the flame by exerting their will on it, but they too remained unsuccessful.
After all of them died, Yang Feng and the other left the hall and the Cheng Family grounds, but not before Yang Feng took all the spirit stones and treasures stored in their Treasury.
The four left the City right after leaving the Cheng Family grounds. After which, Meng Wu Ya again led them towards another direction. During the next few days of the journey, everyone was a bit quite. Obviously trying to digest what had happened back there.
Which didn't take them long to do and they continued to remain on their journey.
~9 months Timeskip~
In the last 9 months, Yang Feng and his group had been going around the human territory under the lead of Meng Wu Ya. They would stay in a place for a few weeks before moving to the next place.
During this time, Yang Feng, Su Yan and Xia Ning Chang had been cultivating diligently, but neither of the three had advanced much in it and thus remained in the same realm.
While on the travel, Yang Feng had decided to raise his professions to the Saint Grade as soon as possible. Considering that he had a great foundation for all of his professions and already had the knowledge about them up to beyond the Saint Realm, it wouldn't take him long.
He has finally raised his alchemy skill to the Saint Grade because the only thing that had been stopping him was the lack of materials, which was easily handled as Tong Xuan Realm had many Spirit and Saint Grade resources.
But that wasn't all, Yang Feng had also been trying to deepen his understanding of Space Laws (Space Force) and in the last few months, he was successful in tearing space and opening a way to the Void Space (the chaotic place where Yang Kai would find himself in the original). [A-Note: previously, he could tear space. But that was only possible for him when there was already a link formed between two places.]
He then used that ability to further his knowledge of the Space Laws, by enter the Void Space and observing the space laws in that place. Although the environment in that place is a bit harsh, with the void storms and such, but these conditions were not much for Yang Feng to handle because of his powerful body.
And so, with his increase of understanding of space laws, his space techniques also continued to improve. Now, he was certain that he only needed the location of the Dragon Emperor Palace and Phoenix Empress Valley to open a Void Crack to that place, the location of which he still didn't find out.
Currently, the group was in a 1st Class City and Yang Feng was in the process of completing one of the tasks he had held himself from completing.
