Chapter 113 Let Me Show You My Strength
ye feng glanced over them briefly before withdrawing his gaze, then gestured slightly with his hand, "sit!"
the two commanders from the southern territory then turned around and sat on the sofa. the one whose body was full of explosive strength moved in a rigid and deliberate manner, which seemed somewhat slow, but his body exuded an indefinable grandeur.
as for the middle-aged man dressed in the scholar's long robe, his expression was calm, seemingly carefree and detached.
at this moment, xia lengchan stepped forward and said, "perhaps our lord is not yet familiar with their names. the muscular one is commander li jingang, who is known in the southern territory for the moniker 'great hand li jingang'. the other is called zhuge yu, hailed as 'little zhuge' in the southern territory."
ye feng nodded slightly. he could see that both individuals were grandmaster-level experts, on the verge of stepping into huajin, with strength not much different from xia lengchan.
of course, in the southern territory, above the commanders, there are nine domain lords. these lords of the nine domains, akin to the nine legion commanders of the northern border, are generally at the huajin grandmaster level.
ye feng looked at them and spoke word by word, "for this summons, has xia lengchan conveyed my intentions to you?"
li jingang and zhuge yu simply sat there and for a moment did not reply.
xia lengchan hurriedly stepped forward and said, "to answer you, my lord, i had already conveyed your intentions to them on our way here. as for their willingness..."
at this point, commander xia closed his mouth, clearly unsure of the attitudes of these two companions. however, having brought them here, whether they were willing or not was now out of his hands.
sima zhantian saw this and couldn't help calling out, "the lord is asking you a question!"
ye feng did not urge them, instead watching the two with interest.
the great hand li jingang suddenly stood up and cupped his fists, "we are deeply grateful that the northern border king holds us in such high regard and wishes to recruit us. however..."
sima zhantian immediately shouted, "however, what? stop beating around the bush like a fussy old woman and speak your mind."
li jingang thought for a moment before saying, "the following words may be disrespectful to the northern border king, so i hope you will not take offense before i speak them!"
ye feng nodded slightly, "speak freely, without reservation."
only then did li jingang say, "although we two are not very prominent figures in the southern territory, not quite comparable to the esteemed lords of the nine domains, we are commanders in our own right and believe ourselves to have certain skills.
in fact, not just the two of them, even xiao chuanqi and sima zhantian wore blank expressions, not understanding what the northern border king meant by his words.
ye feng's expression suddenly turned stern, and he looked at li jingang and the others, uttering word by word, "watch carefully, next, i will show you my power!"
as his voice fell, ye feng struck out with a palm through the air, aiming at a marble column five meters away.
the palm appeared light and breezy, seemingly devoid of any strength, without the momentum of inner strength, feeling as if it was a child playfully pretending.
li jingang and zhuge yu looked at each other, unable to comprehend.
xiao chuanqi, sima zhantian, and xia lengchan were also dumbfounded, unable to discern the depth of it.
li jingang hesitated before finally asking, "may i ask, what palm technique is this? it seems so effortless, just a powerless palm, you're not mocking us, are you?"
"mocking you?" ye feng laughed; as a once great ruler, he certainly had no such leisure.
"but this palm technique, it's just too..." li jingang was at a loss for words.
if the other person hadn't been the northern border king, but anyone else, he would likely have erupted in anger on the spot.
however, just then, the marble column five meters away started to dust and pieces began to fall; more and more dust fell off.
suddenly everyone saw the sturdy column, thick enough for a grown man to embrace, had been pierced by a single palm, with a huge great hand seal in the middle, which looked shockingly awe-inspiring.
"this..." li jingang and zhuge yu saw this and both widened their eyes, their faces revealing an expression of disbelief.
xia lengchan's mouth hung open, her whole body so agitated she couldn't speak. she was both excited and thrilled, yet also a bit frightened.
sima zhantian and xiao chuanqi exchanged shocked glances, both were ecstatic.
"a light, effortless palm from afar, yet it pierced through such a tough column, this level of power... a huajin grandmaster definitely couldn't do this, could it be... a martial king?"
"that's right, just now we didn't feel any fluctuation of inner strength; clearly, it has reached the 'nine return to one' or even the 'return to simplicity' realm. it's definitely a martial king. my heavens, northern border king, you... you truly are a martial king!"
at this time, the way li jingang and zhuge yu looked at ye feng had changed.
