At the moment, Zou Feng didn’t have the time to bother with Gongsun Jinghong’s petty thoughts.

The battle on the Celestial Sacrifice Platform was clearly about to be decided, and Zou Feng didn’t want to miss the moment Su Qingyu won.

It wasn’t just because he was now a member of Biyou Palace’s camp. More importantly, Zou Feng was eager to know if Su Qingyu could use this opportunity, after winning the battle, to take that step beyond the First Grade.

After all, this was the main reason Su Qingyu had insisted on fighting Gongsun Xiang in the first place.

After a few leaps, Zou Feng found a rooftop with a suitable vantage point, preparing to quietly wait for the decisive battle to conclude.

"Brother Feng!?"

Just as he was engrossed in the scene, a familiar voice called out.

Zou Feng didn’t need to turn around to know it was Teng County who had suddenly appeared.

Teng County had been wondering where Zou Feng had gone. After looking around for him several times with no luck, she had simply started searching the vicinity.

It was mainly because Zou Feng had disappeared for a long time without a word, and Teng County was genuinely worried something might have happened to him.

Now she had finally found him, only to see Brother Feng carrying a woman whose body was shrouded in a poisonous mist. And beneath that mist, the woman was clearly naked.

"Brother Feng, you... What is this...?" 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

Teng County was a bit stunned. No matter how you looked at it, the scene could only be interpreted as Zou Feng having snuck away to have a "fierce battle" with the woman on his shoulder.

This wasn’t just her imagination running wild; many details became clear with just a glance.

Zou Feng’s current expression, as serene as a Buddha’s, was particularly telling.

Caught red-handed, Zou Feng initially wanted to explain, but then he realized there was nothing to explain.

First, Teng County wasn’t exactly his woman yet. Second, he had indeed done it, so why try to argue?

So Zou Feng simply made a candid introduction. "Uh, this is Gongsun Jinghong. We were just... catching up."

’Gongsun Jinghong?!’

Although she had never seen her before, Gongsun Jinghong was, after all, a famous genius of the younger generation of the Great Yan Royal Family. Teng County immediately understood.

’So, Zou Feng, who was supposed to be guarding the flank for the Palace Master, had instead neglected his duty midway through to have a little tryst and play the part of the Great Yan Royal Family’s Prince Consort?’

’How wicked! How depraved!’

Understanding the situation, Teng County lowered her head, her body trembling slightly.

A moment later, she looked up again, her eyes shining with a peculiar light. She looked as if she was about to confess her feelings to Zou Feng on the spot.

Apparently, Zou Feng’s wickedly charming and unrestrained actions had hit all the right notes for Teng County, making her admire him even more.

Seeing the obsessed and excited expression that suddenly appeared on Teng County’s face, Zou Feng’s heart skipped a beat.

Because he had seen a similar expression on the face of the maid, Zhi Shuang.

’Don’t tell me Teng County has also suddenly awakened some... unsavory trait...’

Gongsun Jinghong remained silent the whole time. Powerless to resist, she knew the best thing to do now was to make her presence unfelt, as if she didn’t exist at all.

Before Zou Feng could dwell on it, another miserable howl from Gongsun Xiang on the Celestial Sacrifice Platform drew everyone’s attention back.

Just a moment ago, Su Qingyu had landed a heavy kick right on Gongsun Xiang’s face.

His Supreme True Dragon Body’s defense had clearly been broken. As the kick connected, a clear footprint appeared on his face.

After being knocked to the ground, Gongsun Xiang quickly scrambled back to his feet, but he was panting heavily. His defeat was clearly sealed.

"Gongsun Xiang, you never expected this day would come, did you?" Su Qingyu, with victory in her grasp, smiled as she slowly drifted toward him.

Just from those words, it was clear the two of them had some old grievances.

At this moment, with a large footprint on his face, Gongsun Xiang looked utterly ridiculous.

But that didn’t stop his face from being filled with disbelief.

His Supreme True Dragon Body was broken. In contrast, Su Qingyu’s Gu God Body was still at its peak.

So no matter how unwilling Gongsun Xiang was to accept reality, he couldn’t escape this predetermined defeat.

Su Qingyu had even won with an absolute advantage, without paying much of a price.

The difference in their strength was actually quite obvious, but Gongsun Xiang focused all his resentment on the fact that his destiny had just been siphoned away.

"If it weren’t for that treasonous bastard, I wouldn’t have..."

Gongsun Xiang’s hatred was monstrous, and he bit his gums until they bled.

A moment later, Su Qingyu walked up to Gongsun Xiang and looked down on him.

"I’ll give you one last chance. Kneel, lick the bottom of my foot clean, and I’ll spare your life!" Su Qingyu said leisurely.

However, this wasn’t a chance at all. Everyone knew that Su Qingyu possessed the Hundred Poison Sacred Body and was currently empowered by her "Gu Divine Domain."

In Gongsun Xiang’s current, heavily injured state, licking it would also mean dying from poison.

Gongsun Xiang looked up, his eyes seeming to split with rage. "Su Qingyu, even if I..."

Before he could finish his sentence, a strange fluctuation suddenly rippled through the surrounding space.

This abrupt fluctuation was sensed not only by Gongsun Xiang and Su Qingyu; the surrounding crowd also looked around in confusion, not understanding what was happening.

At the same time, two objects in Zou Feng’s possession began to grow warm, as if they had been summoned.

It was the Immortal Treasures he carried with him to harvest Spiritual Liquid.

"Brother Feng, what the hell was that!?" Teng County instinctively tensed up.

It wasn’t that she was a coward; the atmosphere was genuinely off. It felt as if they had been locked onto by some extremely powerful existence.

The other True Qi Realm experts who had been watching the battle all grew flustered.

Some even suspected that some kind of Restriction had been set up around the Forbidden City. Was something major about to happen!?
