What a Pity

The guards questioned loudly, and the whole place fell silent.

The leader was particularly eye - catching. Dressed in black, he exuded a murderous aura and had an imposing manner that commanded respect without even raising his voice. With just a glance from the corner of his eye, the on - lookers were so intimidated that they quickly composed themselves and stepped back.

Only Yi Feng stepped forward immediately and responded.

"It's me!"

He shouted without hesitation, leaving everyone stunned.

The Meteor Ancient Boat had strict rules. No one was allowed to fight privately. Even if there were occasional disputes, they would always be resolved after the law - enforcement team showed up, with big issues being minimized and small ones being smoothed over.

Today,

Someone actually stepped forward bravely and admitted it. This was truly the first time such a thing had happened!

Should one say he was brave and decisive, or just ignorant and reckless?

Everyone looked at each other in dismay, and the atmosphere became even more silent.

The leading captain sized up Yi Feng for a few moments, showing no sign of emotion on his face.

Then he lowered his eyes and looked at the fat man in the sea.

"Send a few people to rescue him and bring him here for questioning."

As soon as he finished speaking, several guards flew towards the sea.

In an instant,

The swindler, looking like a drowned rat, was fished onto the ancient boat.

Before the captain could ask a question,

He pointed at Yi Feng with a face full of grief and indignation. While roaring, he shed aggrieved tears. His acting skills were so seamless that it seemed he was quite experienced.

"Bold scoundrel! How dare you defy the strict rules of the ancient boat?!"

"I'm just a worthless person. It's no pity for me to die in the vast sea. But if you violate the boat's rules, what you're throwing into the sea is not just me, but the dignity of all the noble people on the ancient boat!"

"If such a scoundrel is allowed to continue traveling on the Meteor Ancient Boat, everyone will be in danger, and the reputation of the ancient boat will surely be ruined!"

"Captain, please make a fair judgment. If this man is not expelled, the public's anger will not be appeased!"

His denunciation was full of emotion.

The dead swindler was accusing others first, and his acting was quite commendable. It was as if he had really suffered a great injustice, completely different from his previous arrogant attitude.

If an uninformed person saw this, they would probably think he was the victim.

However, those who were qualified to board the ancient boat were mostly not ordinary people.

Looking at this scene, not many people spoke out rashly.

The highly - regarded law - enforcement captain calmly watched the swindler's performance, looking thoughtful.

Obviously, he didn't immediately believe the swindler's one - sided story.

Yi Feng was even calmer.

No matter how much the swindler slandered him, he remained calm and even had a little anticipation.

Seeing that no one responded, the swindler continued to shout.

"Captain, you must handle this fairly! I have never met this man before, and yet he treated me like this. This is a blatant provocation to the dignity of the ancient boat!"

He put another big label on the matter!

In just a few words, the swindler had equated himself with the ancient boat, making the situation seem irreparable.

The captain frowned slightly, and the atmosphere became even tenser.

Just at this moment,

Yi Feng stepped forward again and slapped the swindler with an open - handed palm!

"Slap! Slap! Slap!"

The crisp sound echoed!

He slapped the swindler three times in a fancy way, and the swindler's face was instantly swollen like a pig's head!

Everyone on the scene stared with wide eyes, as if they had seen a ghost!

Before they could react,

The familiar "plop" sound rang out again, and the fat figure fell back into the sea to "drink water"!

It was so sudden...

All this happened in a flash.

The on - lookers gasped in shock and could no longer remain calm on the sidelines!

Instantly,

There was a buzz of heated discussion, and looks of horror spread across the ancient boat!

"Damn it..."

"I thought his previous actions were already ruthless enough, but I didn't expect him to be even more ruthless. Where did this tough guy come from?!"

"He's really young and impulsive!"

"This guy must be new here. He's really in big trouble now!"

"It's over, it's over!"

"How dare he act like this in front of the guard team."

As the incident grew bigger, more and more people came to watch!

Under the pointing and staring eyes,

Yi Feng looked calm on the surface, but his anticipation grew stronger in his heart. Slapping the swindler was really satisfying. By making the matter escalate to this extent, he should finally be punished, right?

This time, there were both witnesses and evidence. Shouldn't he be killed and his path of cultivation be destroyed?

He secretly glanced over.

Sure enough, the captain's face darkened a bit.

Without asking another question, he waved his hand at the people behind him and stared at Yi Feng coldly!

A moment later,

The swindler with a pig - like face was fished up, and he shed aggrieved tears.

"Cap... Captain, you must make a fair decision for me! Wuwuwu..."

The captain finally looked at Yi Feng coldly.

"I don't care what kind of feud you two have. Repeatedly starting fights on the ancient boat means you've violated the strict rules. You're no longer qualified to stay on the ancient boat. Get off immediately!"

His deep voice echoed, and everyone around was shocked!

The suddenly silent on - lookers were all terrified. The sympathetic looks they had previously given to the pig - faced swindler were all shifted to Yi Feng.

Yi Feng was a bit disappointed and stood there stunned.

What the hell?

Wasn't it supposed to be death and destruction of his cultivation path? How did it turn into getting off the boat?

Was it because he didn't hit hard enough just now? Otherwise, should he give a few more slaps or beat the swindler's mouth crooked?

Seeing Yi Feng in a daze, people felt even more pity for him.

The swindler showed a triumphant smile and seemed to regain his energy all of a sudden!

First, he bowed to the captain to express his gratitude.

"Captain, you're so wise! The ancient boat is just and selfless. I'm extremely in awe!"

Then he looked at Yi Feng and shouted with a look of petty arrogance.

"Humph..."

"Now you're scared? It's too late!"

"Stinky boy! The ancient boat has already sailed into the vast sea. There are countless monsters in the sea and space turbulence everywhere. Even if you have the cultivation at the Heavenly Rank, it's a dead end for you to enter the sea alone!"

"This is the consequence of defying the ancient boat!"

"Remember to be more sensible in your next life!"

Only then did Yi Feng understand.

No wonder everyone looked so scared and the fat swindler was gloating.

So getting off the boat was so dangerous?

Damn it...

If he had known this, he shouldn't have boarded the boat at all!

What a waste of a good opportunity!

Not wanting to look at the pig - faced swindler anymore, Yi Feng turned around and jumped off the boat!

"This guy is really decisive!"

"What else can he do? Instead of being thrown off, it's better to jump by himself."

His resolute action shocked everyone around, and hundreds of people hurriedly leaned on the railing to look down!

Only the swindler laughed so hard that the fat on his face trembled, and his voice became even more ear - piercing.

"Hahaha..."

"Boy, you dared to hit me. This is your end."

The commotion attracted the attention of people from all directions, and a wave of heated discussion echoed on the ancient boat.

On the top floor of the ancient boat,

There were only a few quiet rooms, not accessible to ordinary people.

In one of the luxurious rooms, the furnishings were all precious treasures. Even the window sills were inlaid with ten - thousand - year immortal jade, exuding a strong aura of the Great Dao. One could benefit a lot just by sitting in it.

By the window,

A master and a servant watched the whole process from above.

Seeing Yi Feng jump off, the maid couldn't help but show a look of regret on her face.

"Alas!"

"This man is brave and decisive. He didn't show any mercy even in front of the law - enforcement team and beat his enemy mercilessly. He's really a hot - blooded young man. It's a pity that he's brave but doesn't know when to stop. Making the matter escalate to this extent is just like seeking death."

"Miss, don't you think this man is so pitiful..."
