Chapter 831
“You don’t need to leave . ” It was at this moment that a cold voice echoed down from the cliff . It seemed like he spoke from very far away, and everyone in the Fourth Palace was startled upon hearing him .

Shui Mu and the Half-Spirit, who had reached the Fourth Palace’s edge, were overjoyed, and they turned around . A white-haired man was now standing atop the palace and looking over all the people below . It was unknown how long he had been standing there, but it was still obvious from his tone that he was aware of what had just happened here .
Brother Fei Yu! Shui Mu transmitted his gratitude in his thoughts and with his eyes . He didn’t need to speak to express how anxious he was now .
The gaze of the man called Fei Yu fell on Jiang Chen . His black eyes were like bright gems, and, if one looked at them fixedly, one would find them sharp as if they were capable of erasing everything . “Kneel down, cripple your cultivation, and I will let you leave . As for your affair with the Earth Spirit Clan, this will be settled between you in the future,” he said . He spoke earnestly as if he was reading a book’s contents, but his tone was firm and resolute .
“I asked you to get lost, didn’t you hear me?” Jiang Chen paid no attention to the white-haired man and just looked at Shui Mu and the Half-Spirit, who had stopped in their tracks . Those two people, who had just seen a glimmer of hope, couldn’t help but purse their lips . They didn’t want to follow Jiang Chen’s orders, but Jiang Chen was near them, while their Brother Fei Yu was on the palace above the cliff . So if a fight started, their situation would be anything but reassuring .
All of a sudden, a black blur flew through the air and reached Shui Mu and the Half-Spirit . It revolved around atop their heads, before it descended slowly . This was a cape, a snow-white cape . It had many beautiful feathers on it, which was why people assumed a moment ago that it was a bird or a flying beast . Those feathers were spotlessly clean, fine, and refined . If one observed them carefully, one would discover that those feathers were divine, sharp weapons . They were like myriad swords, which protected Shui Mu and the Half-Spirit beneath them .
“It’s the Heavenly Feathers Divine Clothes!”
“Awesome!”
Shui Mu and the Half-Spirit were overjoyed, and when they looked once again at their Brother Fei Yu, they discovered that his coat had already disappeared . They would both be safe while protected by this piece of clothing .
“This is a supreme treasure of the Ice Spirit Clan . He’s probably a member of the royal family,” Yao Yuntong whispered to Jiang Chen .

Spirits were all divided into several grades, and the royal family’s members were people with an extremely aloof status .
“An Ice Spirit?” Jiang Chen was surprised by this . This guy belonged to the same Spirit Clan as his senior sister .
“You should just continue observing from there . I will kill him after a short while . ” Fei Yu exclaimed as he continued climbing upward . He quickly reached the peak of the palace . However, there were still almost 1,000 feet between him and the top of the cliff, and, since he couldn’t fly, it would be difficult for him to reach the peak .
Jiang Chen noticed that many names were left above the palace, and they were all at different heights .
“So, those are the geniuses who left their names at the Fourth Palace?” As Jiang Chen looked there, he quickly discovered Ning Haotian’s name . There were still two names beneath his name, and they were both crossed off . Moreover, it seemed from the traces left behind that it was done by a spear’s tip .
“It turns out that this is the ranking . ” It didn’t seem tidy at all, and many names weren’t written properly . Moreover, many people had only written half their names . This mountain wall did not have any sense of beauty at all . Jiang Chen didn’t like this at all . However, it was fortunate that the highest region was completely empty . If it hadn’t been empty, he might not even have been willing to leave his name there .
“If we climb atop the cliff, we will reach the Fifth Palace . However, it is extremely difficult for anyone below the Great Venerable Realm who can’t fly to reach such a place . Many people have tried it, yet they all failed in the end . It was only later that someone had a flash of inspiration and decided to leave his name on the highest region he could reach, and this affair quickly became a trend . ”
Jiang Chen nodded and said, “Is it just a height obstruction?”
When he had just uttered these words, the sound of a raging torrent of water echoed from above the cliff . People oblivious to the truth might even assume that it was a mountain flood . Fei Yu took a deep breath and jumped up . He used his whole body’s power . When the water flow battered him, he felt like he was being bombarded by a heavy object possessing tremendous power . Fei Yu bore the brunt of the stream, and his body slid along the cliff . However, he was still outstanding, and he penetrated the cliff with his fingers and didn’t let himself be swept away by it .

When the water flow started weakening, he exerted his power once again . He stepped on the water flow and started jumping along it . It was like he had turned into a skipped stone . When he reached his highest limit, he took out a dagger and quickly carved his name on the mountain’s wall . After he had finished this, he descended along with the water flow . It was only at this moment that the people below got to see where he had left his name .
“The top ten!”
“The fourth position!”
When they had ascertained his approximate position, they looked up there earnestly . Wu Hui, Yao Yuntong, and the others couldn’t help but exclaim in alarm .
“Brother Fei Yu is really formidable! This is our Spirit Clan’s noble lineage!” Shui Mu and the Half-Spirit shouted excitedly . Then they looked at Jiang Chen and shouted at him, “You are done for, lowly human . ”
“You have already wasted your sole chance of leaving alive,” Jiang Chen said coldly .
“It seems to me that it is you who wasted it . ” It was unknown when Fei Yu reached the ground, but he was now walking toward Jiang Chen step by step . His surroundings were filled with mist, and he seemed like a painted character who had come out from a painting that was still damp . He had a special and outstanding demeanor . When he neared them, he went back to his previous state, perfect, without blemish, and spotlessly clean .
“Did you already consider how you want to die?” He asked Jiang Chen .
“Do you feel like everything is under your control?” Jiang Chen responded .

“Isn’t that the case?” A faint smile appeared at the corners of Fei Yu’s mouth .
“You will then just end up disgracing yourself . ” Jiang Chen sneered coldly and just flew toward Shui Mu and the Half-Spirit, who were protected by the Divine Clothes .
“Humph!” Fei Yu smiled disdainfully and made hand signs . The feathers on the Heavenly Feathers Divine Clothes flew out, and they seemed like myriad swords fused by a Sword Doctrine’s great master . There wasn’t any room for escape from them .
“Die, die!” The Half-Spirit shouted complacently .
“A Single Spark Makes a Great Fire!” Jiang Chen didn’t use his two swords and just pointed with his finger and used the Fire God Scripture’s Spark Layer .
A spark flew out of the tip of his finger . It seemed ordinary and inconspicuous, but when it reached the ten thousand swords they all stopped in their places, before they all started shivering . All of a sudden, the spark started quickly growing, and it seemed like a Sky-burning Evil Flame, which was about to devour the world . It devoured all swords in its path and bombarded the Heavenly Feathers Divine Clothes directly .
Rumble!
The havoc caused by it on the ground was more terrifying than what occurred in the sky . The whole mountain quaked, and everyone was left in a sorry state . When two miserable screams echoed out, Fei Yu’s expression changed drastically .
After that, the Sky-burning Evil Flame shrank down into a spark as when it was released, and it disappeared, while charred black clothes were left on the ground . As for Shui Mu and the Half-Spirit? They disappeared completely, and only charred potholes, which had a humanoid shape, were left on the ground .
“Overbearing!” Wu Hui and the others all exclaimed in alarm . If Jiang Chen planned to attack, he would immediately attack and wouldn’t hesitate at all . He wasn’t afraid at all of the Spirits’ statues, and was arrogant and wild .
“It wasn’t a genuine product,” Yao Yuntong thought inwardly, while looking at the piece of Heavenly Feathers Divine Clothes . If it was genuine, it wouldn’t be burned by the flames and left in such a state .
“You really dared to kill them in front of me!” Fei Yu’s calm expression had changed drastically, and eerie flames burned in his eyes . Even though those were burning flames, everyone felt a chill spreading to their bodies, as if they were really in the underworld .
“They both died because of you,” Jiang Chen pointed out this matter to him .
“Today, you will also die here!” Fei Yu said coldly .
“Do you know the Ice Spirit Clan’s woman, who had an arranged marriage with the Blood Shadow Dynasty?” Jiang Chen uttered baffling words .
“What?” Fei Yu was taken aback by this and didn’t manage to come to his senses for a moment .
“If you know her, you will get to keep your life . ”
