"So, are you finally satisfied?" Feng Yi looked at the crowd with a gaze that said he'd been shortchanged...

The family head wanted to say hell no, what the hell is this, his old face turning crimson with indignation, "You, you brat, why do you have another mask under your face mask?"

"With the pandemic being so severe, how can anyone go out without wearing a mask and a face mask? Even someone as outstanding as me fears catching a virus. But with the dual protection of both a mask and a face shield, the issue can be perfectly resolved—by the way, I heard that Star Wars Company's online shopping site has a discount event for buying masks. Everyone might want to check it out; I advocate for everyone to start protecting themselves, beginning with me."

Feng Yi's speech left everyone dumbfounded; they hadn't expected that the young man, who spoke so seriously but nonsensically, could be quite the joker. The martial arts competition for marriage had somehow turned into a commercial promotion, and it was even for a federal enterprise—what in the world was this bizarre strategy.

The Nangong family head was visibly displeased, and clearly looking to trouble Feng Yi, he snorted coldly, "A slick-tongued kid. No matter who you are, if you want to marry Qi'er, you must defeat her first."

Feng Yi turned his head slightly upon hearing this, his gaze settling on Nangong Qi, not expecting this little girl to also become his enemy. At that moment, Nangong Qi had already floated down to the stage, evidently with the intention of proving who was better.

Seeing this, Feng Yi hesitated for a moment. First it was Sheng Qiangwei, then his little fan girl, and now even Qi'er was betraying him? Green, totally green... Why must the world be against him? But he liked the challenge, so bring it on.

Despite his words, Feng Yi really had no idea about Nangong Qi's actual strength and asked with a hint of disdain, "Qi'er, just you... are you up for it?"

"You won't know unless you try," she replied.

Nangong Qi's expression remained serene and collected as she stared at him, her face with a smile that wasn't quite a smile making Feng Yi nervous... For some reason, he had a bad feeling about this and hurriedly explained, "If you're up for it, just pretend I never said that last remark."

Nangong Qi shook her head gently, as if to say it was too late to back out now. Despite this, it was not hard to notice the love and tenderness in her gaze towards Feng Yi. This was the kind of calmness that one achieves by truly letting go, and it was terrifying to think of the power a martial artist could unleash in such a state.

Feng Yi could certainly feel the state Nangong Qi was in now, "Hey, you... you're not going down the path of murdering your husband, are you?"

"Li Xiang, look at me," she said.

Feng Yi was confused and reluctantly shifted his evading gaze to Nangong Qi...

As their eyes met, he noticed that Qi'er had a pair of light golden eyes, sparkling like autumn leaves. But at this moment, why did he feel like he was staring at a cobra, and Qi'er seemed to be looking at her prey?

Feng Yi really didn't dare to continue making eye contact. He knew all too well how terrifying the Nangong Family's eye technique was—Hongfei was a cautionary example. Although he was confident that Qi'er meant no harm, he still wanted to avoid this predicament as much as possible, "Hey, have you had enough of staring? It's not like you're not beautiful enough."

Nangong Qi was indeed beautiful, but to say such a thing when the poor girl's face was tear-stained from crying wasn't the most tactful move and could easily backfire. Nangong Qi looked at him with displeasure, complaining, "You and your smart mouth. I'll give you a good lesson."

She didn't even give Feng Yi time to react. With a leap, she flew towards him, her body almost parallel to the ground, and though her speed didn't seem fast, the fluttering of her hair in the wind had a unique ethereal quality.

Feng Yi could sense that this was a state far surpassing that of the elder called Fali, with a supreme aura surrounding her. The sparkle emerging from the tips of her delicate fingers seemed deeply mysterious.

Feeling the distance between them closing, Feng Yi took a quick step forward to meet the challenge but was unwilling to harm Qi'er. He raised his hand to grab her gracefully... with a roar like a tiger's.

Whoosh!

But Feng Yi's grab caught nothing but air. Nangong Qi's elusive movement made it impossible for him to gauge the distance accurately, as if what he had just seen was merely an illusion. Suddenly, a fragrant breeze rushed past his nose, and the same movement appeared right in front of him—Nangong Qi hadn't moved at all; it was he who had misjudged the distance.

This… was so sudden! Feng Yi was completely caught off guard.

And that spark manipulated by the tips of her fingers was giving Feng Yi a bad premonition. In a flicker, the spark accurately hit Feng Yi's upper body.

Feng Yi was too slow to defend himself, relying on his combat instincts to raise his hand to block, but he didn't feel any pain or discomfort until he tried to exert force a second time. That was when he realized that his body had somehow been immobilized. He looked down to see that the speck of light which had been dancing at Nangong Qi's fingertips had now turned into golden chains, securely locking his body so he couldn't move at all.

He could feel the genuine touch emanating from the circle of light, causing Feng Yi to let out a cold snort, thinking it was a ludicrous fantasy that such a mere circle of light wanted to lock him up, "Blank Paper Realm, break!"

It was all an act, though it was useless, "Break, break, break, just break already, damn it!"

As Nangong Qi made her second killing move, Feng Yi, in a state of panic, jumped around like a flea, uttering incomprehensible noises about breaking free, leaving the group below totally confused, their jaws dropping to the ground.

"Wow, it's like domestic violence! Sister Qi'er is so awesome," Nangong Ziyu exclaimed with her eyes wide open, her eyelashes fluttering in astonishment. She never knew the usually gentle and sensible Sister Qi'er could be so fierce in a fight, and she found herself feeling a bit sorry for the bad guy brother.

Who would have thought Nangong Qi could be so formidable, not only was her movement extremely fast, but her constant stream of bizarre moves was also unpredictable.

At this moment, the bedraggled Feng Yi couldn't even describe his own state; the girl's movement, although slightly slower than Mengdie, was still not something he could deal with in his current condition. If it weren't for his use of instant transmission to sneak away a few times, he would have been done for. Even so, he had a few close calls with the young girl catching him.

At the same time, Feng Yi was wondering what exactly this was. That's right, Mengdie's movement technique... and upon thinking of Mengdie, he suddenly realized that this was probably not a Bizarre Illusion Technique, but rather a kind of Five Elements Technique.

With a burst of explosive sound, the stormy essence broke through, and the light circle that dawned upon with unreserved power shattered into pieces,

Nangong Qi abruptly stopped. She hadn't even used her full strength just now. Her gaze was deep, her delicate face was flawless, and she watched Feng Yi without moving, making him increasingly nervous, "Hey, it's not that I can't beat you, I'm serious."

Feng Yi felt he was losing in terms of momentum, "Come on, let me show you my real power."

Roar...

Along with a tiger's roar, a stormy battle aura suddenly surged around him as a sign of respect.

Nangong Qi's expression didn't change, with her bare hands opening and closing there was a series of crisp snaps, her hand-seal speed even surpassing Fali's. Feng Yi suddenly realized that this was the same move Fali had used earlier, a move that was utterly ineffective against his Blank Paper Realm. As expected, the Spirit Communicating Technique failed to take shape and shattered under the pressure of the Blank Paper Domain.

Nangong Qi's brows slightly furrowed, not expecting that Feng Yi could break her technique so easily.

However, the surprise was but fleeting. With her palms striking again, snap, snap, snap... countless golden lights suddenly appeared around Feng Yi, completely encompassing him. The Blank Paper Realm could no longer suppress it, which meant this was not an intangible thing but a kind of Five Elements Technique.

This sight made Feng Yi extremely flustered, damn, not again? What a nuisance. That's why I hate those hermit sects with all their weird and strange techniques.

Not sure what effects those golden lights striking him would have, Feng Yi could only try his best to dodge. His sharp movements zipped through the vast arena, while more and more golden leaves sprang up from the ground, eventually forming a resplendent Bodhi tree, making Feng Yi realize the trouble he was in.

Strike the snake in its vital spot, capture the ringleader first, he could not concern himself with much else at the moment and charged at Nangong Qi with a burst of afterimages.

The young girl didn't even attempt to dodge, her bright eyes fully fixated on Feng Yi. As a sudden jolt erupted, Feng Yi immediately halted in his tracks...

The world around him had completely changed, turning into a vast expanse of snowy, icy world. If his guess was right, what he was experiencing should be similar to what Hongfei had seen before.

This turned out to be the lost space created by the Flashing Golden Eye, but different from the chaotic void that Hongfei had seen, which reflected Nangong Qi's inner emptiness and confusion, she had completely sealed Hongfei within that chaotic space.

In front of Feng Yi, however, was a boundless world of snow and ice. Looking around the picturesque spirit realm, Feng Yi could see nothing but a white snowscape and Nangong Qi, who had sealed him in this space.
