Chapter 314 - 314 The Persistent Young Master Wang
Lilian’s eyes dimmed when she heard the word “engaged”.
That’s right, Shen Fei and Aloy had been engaged since they were babies. Furthermore, Aloy was the apple of the mayor’s eye, how could Lilian compare?
Lillid frowned. “We are aware of this matter, but the engagement can also be called off…”
He had discussed this with his wife. If Shen Fei was willing, they would consider letting him and Lilian get married with their blessings. After all, Shen Fei was the grandson of Richard, the Dragon of the City, and he shared his noble blood. His future achievements would be extraordinary. If he became Lilian’s husband, Lilian would definitely become much happier.
This sentence from Lillid put Shen Fei in a dilemma.
Of course, he knew about the engagement. If it were any other ordinary person who had encountered such a problem, they would have relented long ago. After all, who would dare to offend a force like the mayor?
However, to Shen Fei, he would not take anyone seriously. Besides, he did not want to waste Lilian’s youth with a half-hearted romance.
Lillid suddenly sighed. “Sigh, forget it. Since you’re not willing to marry Lilian, we won’t force you.”
“Dad, what are you saying?” Lillian pouted, feeling wronged.
“Lilian, we can’t ruin a child’s life because of our own wishful thinking.” Lin Yating comforted Lilian.
“Alright, Lillian, stop messing around. Even Shen Fei isn’t happy, so why should we push the matter?” Lillid shook his head.
“But—” Lilian wanted to argue.
“Alright, my dear girl, you don’t have to say any more,” Lillid interrupted her.
Lilian pouted and finally nodded. Seeing Lilian’s aggrieved expression, Shen Fei could not help but feel a bit guilty.
However, he only doted on Lilian like an older brother would a younger sister. He had no romantic feelings for her at all.
The situation was extremely awkward…
Just when Lilian was about to say something, Shen Fei’s phone rang.
When he answered it, Shen Fei’s face quickly became solemn.
After hanging up the phone, Shen Fei smiled apologetically at Lillid, “Uncle, Auntie, I have some urgent matters to deal with, so I’ll take my leave first.”
“Okay, sure.” Lillid nodded.
Shen Fei turned and left the Robertson residence.
…
After leaving Lilian’s house, Shen Fei headed straight for the academy. As soon as he arrived at the entrance, he was stopped.
“Shen Fei! Stop right there!”
Shen Fei turned around and saw a young man with long hair and wearing white sportswear. His face was filled with hatred as he glared at Shen Fei.
‘Ugh, it’s Wang Wei.’
“Young Master Wang, are you asking for a beating again?” Shen Fei coldly said.
Wang Wei gritted his teeth. “Shen Fei, what are you being so arrogant for? Let’s have a duel if you have the guts!”
Shen Fei narrowed his eyes, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes, “Why should I fight with you?”
“Hmph!” Wang Wei sneered, “You injured my brother, so I must take revenge on you!”
“I’m sorry, I still have something to do, so I won’t be able to accompany you.” Shen Fei shrugged his shoulders and prepared to walk around Wang Wei.
“Shen Fei!” However, Wang Wei stood in front of Shen Fei, determined to stop him. “Shen Fei, you’re coming in with me today! Otherwise, don’t blame me for being impolite!”
“Heh, it’s just you this time?” Shen Fei sneered.
Seeing Shen Fei’s attitude, Wang Wei was completely enraged. He shouted, “I’ll let you have a taste of my power today!”
After Wang Wei finished speaking, he immediately rushed forward. Shen Fei chuckled darkly and did not hesitate to meet the attack.
When the two fists collided, an explosive force burst out. Shen Fei’s body stayed where he was, but Wang Wei was forced to take seven or eight steps back before he could stop.
“This brat… How come he’s getting stronger and stronger?” Wang Wei’s heart trembled as he stared at Shen Fei in shock.
Shen Fei glanced at Wang Wei and ignored him. He walked straight into the campus.
Watching Shen Fei’s back as he left, Wang Wei clenched his teeth as killing intent boiled in his heart once more. A vicious smile then appeared on his face.
“Brat, if you’re going to be arrogant, then don’t blame me for being unkind! Six-winged Celestial Centipede, come out!” Wang Wei summoned his newly contracted spirit beast.
The Six-winged Celestial Centipede was, as its name suggested, a centipede with massive wings. It was grayish-brown in color, spanned four meters long, and was covered in a thick carapace. It had three pairs of transparent wings that grew from its abdomen, a ferocious-looking horn on its head, and a tuft of red mane on its forehead.
The moment the Six-winged Celestial Centipede landed in front of Wang Wei, it emitted a ferocious aura. Wang Wei pointed at Shen Fei and ordered, “Go! Kill that guy!”
When the Six-winged Celestial Centipede heard the command, it hissed and quickly shot forward, trying to encircle Shen Fei.
The Six-winged Celestial Centipede’s venom was extremely corrosive, and it could melt even steel in a few seconds. This was its strength as a higher Count-rank spirit beast.
Soon, it attracted the attention of other students, and they all rushed outside. The crowd watched the scene in shock.
“Wang Wei has actually summoned a Six-winged Celestial Centipede.”
“Is it for revenge?”
“Shen Fei is really pitiful. He could have provoked anyone but Wang Wei.”
“Hehe, don’t you guys think that this battle is quite exciting? This is a battle between high-grade Count-rank spirit beasts. I wonder how long Shen Fei will last.”
The crowd chatted excitedly among themselves.
The Six-winged Celestial Centipede roared and bared its sharp fangs, then it attacked Shen Fei.
Faced with the Six-winged Celestial Centipede’s ferocious appearance, Shen Fei fought to stifle a yawn.
“Flame Owl, Burning Skies Incantation!”
...
Along with Shen Fei’s call, a giant flaming bird appeared out of thin air and looked down at the sky. Immediately after, an extremely violent heat wave swept out and instantly enveloped the whole area.
The Six-winged Celestial Centipede struggled in pain under the scorching heat, as if it was suffering great torture.
Shen Fei waved his right hand, and the Flame Owl immediately swooped down, slamming into the Six-winged Celestial Centipede’s body and burning it.
Crackle…
The sound of the cracking flames was loud as they burned away at the centipede’s carapace. A few seconds later, the acrid stench of burning flesh filled the air. The Six-winged Celestial Centipede’s corpse fell to the ground and turned into a pool of black liquid.
“F*ck! What the hell is that?!” The surrounding people were shocked.
Meanwhile, Wang Wei stood rooted to the ground with a blank expression.
Although he knew that Shen Fei was very strong, he never thought that Shen Fei would be at such an insane level!
His Six-winged Celestial Centipede was a higher Count-rank spirit beast that he had spent a lot of money on!
In the end… It was instantly killed by Shen Fei in one move! Unbelievable!
