Chapter 142: Encounter with Qin Feng!
Ashen floated in the air, looking at the protagonist holding the headless corpse in his arms, crying with tears streaming down his face.
"Lu Shan, Don't die, you can't die! In this tribe, you were my only friend, you can't leave me like this! Didn't you promise you would help me unite this whole tribe and take revenge on the Qing Long Tribe? Why did you have to die like this?" Qin Feng roared in grief.
Qin Feng's appearance was quite elegant and intimidating. He was clad in a dark, intricately designed robe adorned with delicate patterns of silver waves and red accents, The crimson trim of his attire suggested both nobility and danger. Experience tales with empire
He possessed sharp, angular features and piercing crimson eyes that seemed to glow with a hint of restrained fury. His long, crimson-red hair flew freely, cascading over his shoulders like a midnight waterfall, accentuating his refined yet intimidating aura.
As he was crying in grief over his friend's death, the realization of his killer still being alive dawned upon him.
He turned his head towards Ashen in a flash, his eyes containing immense fury and hatred.
"You! Who are you and Why did you do all this? I don't recognize having any animosity with someone of sword path?" He asked through his gritted teeth, barely holding himself from attacking this murderer.
"Hmm..." Ashen stroked his fake beard, acting to think before replying as he cupped his hands: "I am sent by prefecture lord Du Ya Fei! I am his friend and he has asked me to get rid of you, who is a scorn in his eyes!"
Hearing Ashen's answer, a dry smile appeared on Qin Feng's face that contained both grief and anger: "Du Ya Fei... He really crossed a line he shouldn't have crossed by getting someone from the outside involved in the tribe's matter!"
As he said this, a violent aura rushed out of his body, creating gusts of wind in the area that made his clothes and crimson-red hair dance around in the wind.
Noticing Qin Feng's plan to attack, Ashen glanced at the system's screen, to see the completion percentage.
[Synchronization completion percentage - 30%]
It has only reached 30% and Ashen needed to buy some time. Engaging in a fight with Qin Feng without any knowledge about his skills and cheats was a foolish idea.
If possible, Ashen would like to avoid a head-on brawl and instead would like to simply pass time till the synchronization completed.
To calm the enraged Qin Feng, Ashen decided to divert his anger to Du Ya Fei.
"Qin Feng, do you think you can even harm my friend Du Ya Fei with just this?" Ashen asked while stroking his fake beard like an old man.
Hearing the question, Qin Feng's gaze and attention fixated on Ashen's next words.
"Qin Feng, I'll tell you my friend's plan to let you know just how foolish you are compared to us experienced cultivators!"
"Du Ya Fei has already anticipated your response. He knows that you are going to present this matter to the Blood Demon Lord and would ask him to take action against Du Ya Fei for involving me, an outsider in the matter of the tribe! But..."
Ashen sneaked a peek at Qin Feng's expression to check whether he was correct in his speculation.
And as he had expected, Qin Feng had a surprised yet anticipating expression on his face, telling Ashen that Qin Feng planned to do what he just said.
Satisfied, Ashen continued: "Do you think Du Ya Fei would admit that he asked me for help? You don't even know my name or my identity, how are you going to prove that Du Ya Fei was involved?"
"Du Ya Fei would feign ignorance and will obviously refuse to even know me. How will you prove anything? Du Ya Fei knows this and hence he is confident in taking you down. You are just not experienced enough!"
At this moment, Qin Feng's calm question resounded in the area: "Are you finished, you bastard?"
"Huh?" Ashen was a bit surprised by the sudden change in Qin Feng's attitude as he looked towards him.
"You are correct, I am inexperienced, however, I know for sure that you'll die here today, that's enough for me! As for Du Ya Fei, I'll take his head with my own hands!"
As he said this, his words began to turn louder and filled with immense rage.
He roared:
"To hell with this tribe!"
"To hell with the Blood Demon Lord!"
"And, "
"To hell with Du Ya Fei!"
He looked at Ashen, his eyes beginning to release a black-colored mist energy as his corneas turned dark.
"At this moment, My enemy is only you, the one responsible for Lu Shan's Death!!"
Ashen now knew that there was no escaping a fight anymore as he looked at the synchronization percentage.
[Synchronization completion percentage - 65%]
Alright, only 35 seconds to go!
Ashen thought as he braced himself while looking at Qin Feng.
Qin Feng's cornea was black on the edges as if ink was flowing to color his eyes black.
His body was releasing a mysterious energy that was a mixture of red and black.
His aura, threatening and immensely powerful. It was hard to believe that this aura belonged to a King Realm expert.
Ashen knew that the upcoming battle wasn't going to be easy, hence he used his another skill that could help him immensely.

Ashen activated Temporal Deceleration in a 200m range to react to Qin Feng's attack without any mistake.
At this moment, Ashen saw Qin Feng raise his right hand towards him as a massive spike of made of blood emerged from the ground, moving at an incredible speed to pierce Ashen's floating body.
However, Due to Temporal Deceleration being in effect, Ashen saw everything in slow motion and was able to move out of the way easily.
However, as soon as Qin Feng noticed Ashen making a movement, he moved his index finger as another spike emerged from the ground, rushing to create a hole in Ashen.
