Extreme Almightiest Young Master

Chapter 967: The Idiot among Idiots

But as the conversation turned to her, Ding Wan’er could no longer hold back. What did they mean by saying she was naturally Li Zerui’s woman? Li Zerui was being preposterously arrogant. In her life, Ding Wan’er could only belong to one man, and that was Lin Feng. Apart from Lin Feng, she could never be with another man. If Lin Feng died, Ding Wan’er would immediately follow him in death. She absolutely couldn’t bear the thought of living in this world without him. That was the resolve of Ding Wan’er!

Therefore, Ding Wan’er absolutely wouldn’t allow Li Zerui to spout nonsense here. She wanted to make one thing clear to everyone: she and Li Zerui had never had any relationship from the start, not in the past, not now, nor would there be one in the future. She didn’t want Li Zerui’s nonsense to lead all the guests to misunderstandings—something she couldn’t tolerate.

This...

This Li Zerui...

How... how could such a thing happen...

The guests from Tianhai, having listened to this, finally understood what was really going on. They realized that everything Li Zerui had said was completely unfounded. Despite not knowing much about Lin Feng, they could tell just from his tone that he was composed and unflustered, clearly showing no emotional disturbance, which meant everything Lin Feng said must be true. As social elites, if they couldn’t see this distinction, then they really would’ve lived in vain.

The latter outburst from Ding Wan’er clarified everything—it was all a one-sided obsession on Li Zerui’s part. Ding Wan’er had never shown the slightest interest in him from the very beginning. Li Zerui had fantasized about her being his woman and had the audacity to come here and speak so self-righteously. This... Li Zerui was truly outrageous, leaving everyone speechless.

But then they realized something else: even if they knew the truth, what difference would it make? They still couldn’t leave this place safely. With this thought, their hearts filled with sorrow, and they all turned their gazes towards Lin Feng. From what had just been said, how could they not understand that a duel between Lin Feng and Li Zerui was imminent? The outcome of this duel would determine whether they could leave here alive.

Thinking of this, their hearts tightened with immense tension, all praying for Lin Feng to defeat Li Zerui to save their lives. In this moment, they thought the hope was extremely slim—Li Zerui’s recent clash with the elder was indescribably formidable. They really had no confidence that Lin Feng could withstand such a terrifying Li Zerui. But now, other than this slim hope, they had nothing else to rely on except Lin Feng.

This Li Zerui was a real fool!

What was he thinking, to do something so stupid!

Could Li Zerui truly be such an idiot?

The Old Monster and many other masters shook their heads upon hearing this. They were completely speechless about Li Zerui. They all knew Lin Feng and were familiar with his way of doing things. Since Lin Feng had said so, it was clear that the annihilation of the Li Family was not his doing. Moreover, Ding Wan’er’s fierce scolding also flabbergasted the masters. They never expected Ding Wan’er’s outburst to be so powerful, stripping Li Zerui’s pretense bare. It turned out that all along, this whole saga had just been Li Zerui’s daydreaming.

They looked at Li Zerui, unable to understand how today’s events had come about. Logically speaking, Li Zerui was the most outstanding of the younger generation of the Li Family—definitely a very intelligent person. So how could he have become so muddled now, absurdly believing that Lin Feng had taken Ding Wan’er and killed his entire family? It was totally abnormal. Unless there was some hidden force behind Li Zerui, there was no way he would have acted as he is now.

Thinking about this, their eyes lit up in unison, for they had realized something else—that Li Zerui’s use of the Ice Elemental True Qi was all too familiar to them. Wasn’t that the same type of Ice Elemental True Qi used by Li Deming? Except, Li Deming’s prowess with Ice Elemental True Qi was far inferior to Li Zerui’s, and the Cultivation Techniques of the Li Family should have been incapable of conjuring such a powerful Ice Elemental True Qi.

Moreover, at the recent gathering of the Prominent Families, Li Zerui had suffered from a qi deviation, and at that time, he was only at the peak of AAA grade. Now, he possessed strength that surpassed even the Old Monsters—it could only be explained by Li Zerui encountering some kind of extraordinary opportunity. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to become this formidable so quickly. This led them to conclude that the person behind Li Zerui was inconceivably powerful; there was no other way he could have undergone such a dramatic transformation in such a short time.

Now, all the high-level experts, including the Old Monster, were frowning deeply, all of them eager to discover who was behind Li Zerui. However, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn’t figure out who in the Cultivation World could be such a being...

"Fine, in just a moment, I’ll kill everyone here with an invincible stance and satisfy you and Lin Feng, you pair of doomed lovebirds, hahaha..."

Li Zerui was also surprised to hear Ding Wan’er’s words, but when he listened closely to what she said, his heart boiled with unstoppable rage. He could tell that Ding Wan’er’s words carried a finality, clearly indicating that even in death, she wouldn’t be with him. If so, why should he be polite? He might as well kill Ding Wan’er too—let her die with Lin Feng and everyone else here!

Thinking this, Li Zerui’s smirk became more ferocious as he spoke arrogantly. If no one here wanted to live, then so be it. He would let them witness what true strength was, what true invincibility was—he was that very existence!

"Invincible stance? How boastful. Soon, I’ll show you what an invincible stance really is—but I won’t be as idiotic as you, ridiculously self-proclaiming to be unrivaled under the heavens. Your behavior simply convinces everyone of one thing—you’re the biggest idiot of all idiots and nothing more."

"Also, are you sick in the head? To gain such explosive strength in such a short time, you must obviously be under someone else’s control. Haven’t you ever wondered why the person controlling you would help you improve so quickly? Such a simple matter and you haven’t thought it through—you’re nothing but an idiot!"

"Now you still dare to rant about being invincible here—what do you count for? If you’re invincible, then what does the person behind you count for? Don’t you understand that? Or how your family members died—why must you be so certain that I was responsible? Couldn’t it have been someone else? Have you not thought about these things? Only someone as stupid as you could be used to such an extent. Frankly speaking, you truly are the biggest of idiots, the dumbest of dummies!"

Hearing Li Zerui proclaim an invincible stance yet again, Lin Feng was rendered speechless. He thought to himself, Li Zerui had truly changed; he would never have become this arrogant and self-important. Not considering such simple logic and still claiming an invincible stance—what did Li Zerui count for? Had Li Zerui really never considered the real motives of the person behind him?

With these thoughts, Lin Feng unabashedly lambasted Li Zerui again. He didn’t bother with explanations, merely stating the facts. Although it was all speculation, in the current situation, such conjecture was completely valid. If Li Zerui had any smarts, he would naturally understand the implications of his words.

Lin Feng acted this way because he didn’t want to shoulder the blame. Now that he had spoken out, anyone who seriously analyzed the situation could understand the reasons. A confrontation with Li Zerui was inevitable, and even if it weren’t, Lin Feng wouldn’t let him off for disrupting his wedding with Ding Wan’er and putting the guests in danger. For these reasons alone, Li Zerui deserved to die!

Filled with a resolute intent to kill Li Zerui, Lin Feng was determined to make Li Zerui die understanding his foolishness, instead of being blindly exploited and dying without knowing why. Now, Lin Feng was contemplating how to deal with Li Zerui, who had just demonstrated immense power that demanded caution. What worried Lin Feng most was the safety of the numerous guests; no matter what, he could not let them come to harm. This was something he had to consider...

With the situation unfolding, the guests from Tianhai realized that today’s Li Zerui was merely being used by others. His so-called deep-seated vendetta was unsubstantiated—he was fully under someone else’s mental control, convinced against all reason that his hatred stemmed from Lin Feng and was hell-bent on seeking revenge.

But now, they were all in extreme danger, too terrified to consider anything else. Their minds filled with fear and worry, their gazes fell on Li Zerui, who was in a state of jealous fury, which only heightened their fear. The strength Li Zerui had displayed earlier terrified them: they dreaded that his threat to kill everyone was genuine.
