My Cold and Elegant CEO Wife

Qingfeng Li reached out his right hand and pulled out the first array flag under everyone’s gaze.

Shoo!

Just as he pulled out the array flag, the defensive array formation immediately disappeared.

Everyone was utterly shocked, their mouths wide open.

"How is this possible? How did Qingfeng Li solve an emperor level defense array?"

"Even Senior South Pole Spirit King couldn’t do it. How did he manage to solve it?"

"Can it be that Qingfeng is an array master? But he’s so young!"

The surrounding self-cultivators all had their jaws dropped, disbelief written all over their faces.

If was natural for self-cultivators to know some things about array formations in the world of self-cultivation.

Everyone knew that it was more than difficult to become a master of array formations, not to mention becoming capable of deciphering and deactivating emperor level battle arrays. But Qingfeng Li had accomplished this. He had accomplished the impossible.

If he had said that he was a half-step Spirit Emperor Realm master, it would’ve been easier for everyone to believe. But solving an emperor level battle array? Many were left in disbelief.

The practice of array formations was even more difficult than the practice of self-cultivation.

Most people couldn’t become a master of array formations in their lifetime. Even if they did, their skills were weak.

Take Senior South Pole Spirit King for example. She was already a half-step Spirit Emperor Realm master, and she had practiced the art of array formation for more than 100 years. And still, she was still only capable of cracking a king level array formation. She failed at solving this emperor level battle array.

Qingfeng Li was only in his 20s but had already surpassed a 130-year-old elder in the art of array formations. It was natural for everyone to be completely shocked.

Silence. Complete silence.

Outside the spirit emperor cave abode, all the self-cultivators entered dead silence. They looked at Qingfeng Li as he was some bizarre beast.

Qingfeng Li didn’t have the time to care about what they were thinking about. Instead, he turned towards the Black Wind Duo Demons and said coldly, "Didn’t you say that you would break off one arm each if I managed to solve the emperor level array formation? Quickly, break them."

The duo’s expression twisted in anger, their eyes flashing cold.

Yes, they did bet their arms but that was just talk. The Black Wind Duo Demons didn’t take it seriously.

The Black Wind Duo Demons were both top-tier masters of the half-step Spirit emperor realm. There was no way they would harm their own bodies. They weren’t fools.

At the sight of their expressions, Qingfeng Li knew that they were about to go back on their words.

"Black Wind Duo Demons, I advise you to honor our bet. Hundreds of self-cultivators had witnessed it." Qingfeng Li looked at the Black Wind Duo Demons with eyes of mockery.

"Qingfeng Li, you dare to mock us?" Black Evil’s face was completely dark. She was livid.

"Hmph! Yes, I am looking down on you. Are you not ashamed of going back on your words?" Qingfeng Li cursed at the duo.

"Qingfeng Li, you dare to curse at us? You want to die?" With a roar, Black Evil lashed out with her right hand, turning it into a Nine Hellish Claw. Accompanied by strong winds, the claw tore apart the air and grabbed at Qingfeng Li.

Black Evil was truly despicable. At the sight of her plan falling apart, she wanted to kill Qingfeng Li.

Qingfeng Li didn’t move nor attack. Someone else acted for him.

Linger Yao stepped forward, smashing out her snow-white hand, forming her vital essence into a gigantic palm. With an unrivaled force, her palm struck down on Black Evil’s claw ruthlessly.

Bang!

A loud bang sounded from the heavens, and Black Evil’s claw was immediately shattered to pieces, fading into nothingness.

At the same time, her face turned pale, and her body was forced back. She was only able to stabilize her body after four or five steps backward, and a lesion had appeared on top her hand. It was a wound left by Linger Yao’s retaliation.

"You’re clearly no match for me." Linger Yao looked at Black Evil with eyes of disdain.

Seeing his wife hurt, Black Wind was livid. He pulled out his sword and struck towards Linger Yao.

However, Linger Yao immediately took out her Purple Storm Sword.

It shot out a lightning bolt, instantly splitting Black Wind’s sword in half, leaving a gash on his body at the same time.

Black Wind and Black Evil were already no match for Linger Yao. Now that they’ve been heavily injured, it was even more impossible to fight against her.

"Black Wind Duo Demons, I’ll give you one more chance. Honor your bet with Qingfeng Li and cut off one arm each. Or else, I will kill the both of you right here." Linger Yao gazed at the two with a stoic expression.

The South Pole Spirit King suddenly spoke out as well, "Black Wind Duo Demons, just accept your loss. If Qingfeng Li failed, he would have had to kill himself, but the two of you only have to break off an arm each. I heard your wagers."

The Black Wind Duo Demons looked mighty bitter. They never thought that the South Pole Spirit King would help Qingfeng Li as well.

Of course, the South Pole Spirit King only stood up for Qingfeng Li because he had solved the emperor level array.

Seeing that he was so skilled in array formations, she wanted to question him on the subject; she wanted to learn from him.

After the South Pole Spirit King, many others began to stand up for Qingfeng Li, siding with him. Amongst them, there were at least four half-step Spirit Emperor Realm self-cultivators, Linger Yao, the South Pole Spirit King, the White-Brow Daoist Master, and the Old Monster of the North Sea.

At the sight of so many masters helping Qingfeng Li, speaking on his behalf, the Black Wind Duo Demons’ faces looked completely gloomy. They knew that they had to break off their arms. Otherwise, they might lose their lives.

"Old woman, let’s each break off an arm today. Don’t worry, once we enter the cave abode and find the emperor level elixir, we can restore our bodies. We will then smash Qingfeng Li to pieces." Black Wind looked towards Black Evil.

Hearing his words, Black Evil nodded, albeit unwillingly. She knew that it was the right decision. They had to break off an arm if they wanted to live.

Ka-cha! Ka-cha!

Black Wind Double Evil punched their arms, breaking two immediately, revealing their hauntingly white bones.

They were both ruthless people. They knew that it was impossible to fight against all the powerful masters in front of them. So instead, they chose to honor the deal and cut off their arms.

Qingfeng Li’s eyes flashed cold, surprised by the fact that the Black Wind Duo Demons had broken their arms. It would have been an impossible task for a normal person.

What did this mean? It meant that the two had a clear hatred for him. Qingfeng Li knew that they would try to kill him with any chance they’ve got.

"The array formation is solved, everyone can enter now." The South Pole Spirit King waved her hand in the air and entered the cave.

The Old Monster of the North Sea, White-Brow Daoist Master, the Void Monk and the rest all followed.
