Chapter 1326 - 1323: Blood Refining Skill, Real or Fake!

"Why do you want me to wear a saber?" Luo Feng asked, puzzled.

Xuelian had already accepted the current situation, her alluring red lips curling into a slight smile, "Master will know soon enough."

Luo Feng no longer questioned, handing Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber to Xuelian to see what she had in mind.

"Skyfall Crystal, and the essence blood of the Emperor Yan Fire Lion, oh, this is from the Five-color Thunder mine in the Central Sky Region!"

Xuelian held Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber, and within moments she had analyzed the materials of the saber.

Luo Feng was somewhat surprised, "I didn’t expect you to be so skilled in the refining art."

Xuelian shook her head, "Our Blood Demon race can refine others’ essence blood and gain some memories. Among the human Martial Artists I’ve killed, some happened to be Artifact Refiners. However, when it comes to refining, our Blood Demon race is naturally adept at blood refining skills; those Blood Corpses were refined using blood refining skills, making us born Artifact Refiners."

As she spoke, the blood in Xuelian’s palm trembled slightly, forming a blood-colored vortex with a radius of three meters, and Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber floated at the center of the vortex.

"Blood Refining Skill..."

Luo Feng’s mind stirred, and he observed carefully.

The blood-colored vortex enveloped Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber, appearing like a blood-colored cocoon, pulsating like a heart, with its mysterious power felt boiling within.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang...

With the continuous infusion of blood-colored aura from Xuelian’s palm, the cocoon’s heartbeat quickened and became increasingly powerful, like the maddening thunder of war drums.

Luo Feng, through the blood-colored cocoon, noticed that Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber, which was a superior-grade Spirit Weapon of the fifth rank, began to show signs of melting. The surrounding blood aura seeped inside, and the molten liquid emitted a faint blood light, seemingly merging with the blood-colored cocoon.

"Blood refining method, condense!"

After a moment, Xuelian’s eyes snapped open, her body was engulfed in swirling blood aura, surging like blood waves, with strong blood aura fluctuations radiating from her palms.

Inside the blood-colored cocoon, the partially melted Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber began to solidify, returning to its sword shape, with a small hole near the hilt.

"Master, the saber is ready. Take a look."

Moments later, Xuelian exhaled a breath of turbid air and casually waved her hand, breaking the blood-colored cocoon, sending Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber flying before Luo Feng.

Luo Feng looked at the floating saber in front of him, his eyes flashing.

The saber’s form had undergone slight changes; apart from the small hole near the guard, upon closer observation, fine blood lines like veins spread across the blade, imparting a sense of mystery.

Certainly, what surprised Luo Feng wasn’t the change in shape, but the aura.

The previous Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber was purely domineering, but now it emitted an indefinable aura of bloodthirsty ferocity, a sight an ordinary person wouldn’t dare to behold.

Buzz!

Touching the hilt with his finger, Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber seemed to respond, and the blood threads on the blade lit up, blood-red, emitting a sharp killing intent as though an evil spirit was about to emerge, slaughtering all beings, terrifying to behold.

"Capable of self-generating saber intent, a fine saber!"

Looking at the refreshed Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber, Luo Feng’s eyes shone brightly. Only Spirit Weapons of superior third grade could self-generate saber intent; despite the emitted saber intent being weak, it signified the saber’s quality was top-notch among the sixth-grade Spirit Weapons.

"Master’s saber is now a top-grade sixth-grade Spirit Weapon."

Xuelian’s statement confirmed Luo Feng’s suspicion. Then she pointed at the small hole near the guard, "I don’t necessarily have to maintain a form; when inconvenient, I appear in the form of a Blood Pill attached to the blade, and when needed, I can manifest anytime. Through Blood Refining Skill, the master’s saber now absorbs essence blood; as long as an enemy is slain, I can refine their essence blood to restore Yuan Qi."

Luo Feng withdrew his gaze, nodding, realizing this was likely why Xuelian put so much effort into refining his saber.

However, it was a good thing. He hoped Xuelian would recover her strength soon and become his battle ally. Moreover, the quality of Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber had increased by a whole grade, a winning situation.

At this moment, Luo Feng felt relieved that he hadn’t killed Xuelian.

"Alright, I need to go out; attach yourself to the saber for now." Luo Feng said.

"Okay."

Xuelian nodded, her figure gradually becoming ethereal, transforming into a cluster of blood light, soon reverting to the Blood Pill form, embedding itself into the small hole of Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber.

Sheathing the saber, Luo Feng glanced at the clothes on the ground, murmuring to himself, "It seems I need to buy some clothes."

Unbidden, Luo Feng’s mind flashed with images of Xuelian’s alluring silhouette earlier, his breath growing warmer.

Shaking his head to dispel the enticing fantasies, Luo Feng chuckled wryly to himself, realizing his resolve may not be strong enough...

Gathering his thoughts, Luo Feng freshened up and changed into clean clothes, stepping out of the room. He planned to visit Jiang Fengfeng.

"Luo Feng."

As he walked out the courtyard gate, Yue Haitang approached him.

"Good morning."

Luo Feng walked forward, smiling, "Yue Haitang, are you planning to visit Jiang Fengfeng too?"

"Yes." Yue Haitang nodded.

"In that case, let’s go together. That girl always held her head high; now’s a good time to tease her." Luo Feng chuckled.

Yue Haitang smiled gently, sizing Luo Feng up, wanting to say something but holding back.

The two walked side by side towards the residence of Jiang Fengfeng and Su Zhuyun, encountering people from Dayang Mansion along the way. Seeing the two, everyone respectfully greeted them, addressing Luo Feng as Young Master.

The engagement between Luo Feng and Yang Wanyi was not widely known outside, but everyone in Dayang Mansion was aware.

Thinking of the person who eliminated the Blood Fiend and protected the people, now the first new dragon, as the future husband of their young lady, everyone in Dayang Mansion felt immensely proud.

After a while, at a secluded stone path, Yue Haitang finally couldn’t help but ask, "Luo Feng, why do you call City Lord Yang your father-in-law? Is it really true, like the rumor says, you and Yang Wanyi already have an engagement?"

Yue Haitang looked at Luo Feng, quietly awaiting his response.

"This matter... It’s a long story but not as you think."

Luo Feng grinned wryly, figuring there was no need to hide it from Yue Haitang, so he briefly recounted how Yang Dingtian, poisoned, forced Yang Wanyi into a martial duel for marriage, resulting in him being a scapegoat and becoming Dayang Mansion’s son-in-law by accident.

After listening, Yue Haitang gazed at the clear lake by the stone path, murmuring, "Perhaps it’s not fake."

"What?" Luo Feng was taken by surprise.

Yue Haitang shook her head, glancing at Luo Feng, "I say your perception is getting worse."

Luo Feng wondered, "Is that so? I recently killed the Blood Fiend who transformed into a human form and I identified it immediately."

"I say it is, because you can’t differentiate between true and false."

Leaving with that comment, Yue Haitang strode away.

Cannot differentiate between true and false?

Luo Feng watched Yue Haitang’s departing silhouette, perplexed, considering his astuteness, very few things could deceive him; at least he hadn’t encountered any yet.

After a while, the two arrived at the residence of Jiang Fengfeng and Su Zhuyun.

Inside the room, Jiang Fengfeng lay on the bed, her beautiful face still somewhat pale, while Su Zhuyun was attending to her carefully.
