Seven Deadly Sins System

Having received Wu Feng's confirmation, everyone was relieved and they soon left the Golden Peak, leaving room for Wu Feng to calm down his anger.

But as he looked around the empty room, Wu Feng's face couldn't help but turn gloomy, and his anger became even more intense.

Although everything seemed fine on the surface and the previous meeting went on as usual, from the attitude of his followers, he understood that their minds had changed somewhat and they were no longer as cautious around him as before.

For example, no one would have dared to speak to him like this in the past, no matter how urgent the situation was.

Wu Feng knew that this change of attitude was the result of Xiong Qi's death, which made his followers doubt his abilities.

In their minds, Xiong Qi was not only his trusted followers but also died while following his instructions, yet Wu Feng didn't dare to speak up at all, much less avenge him.

Although this seemed the most suitable choice in the face of Chu Wuyao's power, it served as a catalyst to create a rift in their relationship.

After all, since Wu Feng could "abandon" Xiong Qi today, then he can also choose to abandon them tomorrow.

How could they trust him?

"Moreover, since I lost the Dragon Slaying Sword, these people must think that I can no longer suppress them.", Wu Feng judged, and recalling the previous conversation, he let out a sigh.

Before, he told everyone that he had communicated with Elder Fu, but this was actually a straight-up lie.

If possible, he also wanted to ask Elder Fu for help, but Wu Feng didn't want to do so unless necessary.

"In the end, it seems that I can only ask 'her' for help...", Wu Feng thought, and although he was reluctant, he knew that this was the only solution he had to resolve the current situation.

Having made this decision, Wu Feng looked around carefully and made sure that no one was looking at this place, and after he activated the Golden Peak's formation, he pressed a switch on the wall.

The next second, a small gap appeared on the floor in a corner of the room, in which he jumped in.

As one of the twenty-two, now twenty-three, true disciple's peaks, the Golden Peak was bustling with people and had become the home of thousands of cultivators.

These cultivators ranged from Qi Accumulation cultivators who have just embarked on cultivation to Awakening Realm core disciples and deacons.

Yet, what no one knew was that right below the Golden Peak, a large underground passage existed, leading to a small room located at the mountain's center.

At the center of this room, a huge painting hung on the wall, depicting a beautiful woman in her early thirties.

This woman's face was extremely charming and she had curved eyebrows, plump red lips, and delicate long eyelashes, while an inviting expression that complemented these features flashed across her face.

As long as one gazed at that face, they would be immediately captivated and it would be hard for them to look away, as if her face embodied the concept of beauty itself.

However, when Wu Feng arrived in front of this painting, his body subconsciously trembled and his eyes flashed with fear.

This fear became even more intense when he inadvertently glanced at the lower part of the woman, turning into a look of horror.

Unlike what one would expect based on her beautiful face, this woman's body was anything but beautiful.

Two long arms extended from both sides of her shoulders and wrapped around her abdomen, an abdomen that looked extremely bloated, making her look as if she was pregnant with a monster that couldn't wait to break out.

In addition, her body was not supported by human legs, but by countless red vines that dripped with a sticky green liquid which fell to the ground, creating a small pool just below her.

This painting was found by Wu Feng when he was just a Qi Accumulation Realm cultivator, and it was with its help that he managed to obtain his current strength and status.

Unfortunately, even though he had seen this painting countless times over the years, his fear of it had not decreased in the slightest.

If anything, he had become increasingly aware of this painting's horror.

No, to be more accurate, he had become increasingly aware of the horror of the woman who was depicted in the painting.

Thinking that he would have to ask for "her" help again, Wu Feng's hatred for Chu Wuyao became even more intense.

"You deserve to die!", he couldn't help but curse in a low voice, and then, he started the ritual.

Opening his mouth, he coughed out a mouthful of blood that fell on his hand, and using that blood as paint and his index finger as a paintbrush, he began drawing on the painting.

A few minutes later, he was finished, and unknowingly, a complicated green rune appeared on the painting, which was soon absorbed.

As this rune disappeared, some changes took place in the painting.

In particular, the small pool of green liquid under the woman's body began squirming, taking the shape of various creatures, while a trace of agility appeared in the originally lifeless eyes of the woman, making her look as if she was about to jump out of the painting.

A trace of hesitation flashed on Wu Feng's face when he witnessed this scene, but he soon became determined.

Lowering his body, he knelt to the ground, and facing the painting, he opened his mouth to speak.

"Mother! Your son has arrived. Please wake up!", he whispered in a low voice.

The next second, as if in response to his words, the painting became increasingly more real, until finally, the woman in the painting moved, turning her head towards Wu Feng's direction.

As she looked at him, the corners of her mouth curved upwards.
