Chapter 1327 - 1324: Putting On a Brave Front, Slaughter!

"Why are you guys here?" Jiang Fengfeng looked at Luo Feng and Yue Haitang with a hint of surprise.

"We’re here to visit you, of course."

Luo Feng smiled lightly and sat down beside her.

Upon hearing this, a glimmer of light flashed deep in Jiang Fengfeng’s eyes, and she pouted, saying, "Who asked you to visit me."

Seeing Jiang Fengfeng’s expression, Yue Haitang couldn’t help but smile slightly and asked, "How is your recovery?"

Su Zhuyun said, "City Lord Yang sent a physician to check on her, and she’s mostly fine now. It’s all thanks to Luo Feng’s Qingling Revitalizing Pill; otherwise, her recovery wouldn’t have been this fast."

"It’s just a small effort on my part. I was able to slay the Blood Fiend largely because of her help."

Luo Feng shook his head and asked the important question, "When can we set off for the Sword Tomb?"

Su Zhuyun smiled; she appreciated Luo Feng’s humility, glancing at Jiang Fengfeng, she said, "Although Fengfeng’s external injuries have healed, her internal injuries need more time, coupled with significant blood loss. I suggest we recuperate here for three days before setting off."

As soon as she finished, a crisp voice sounded, Jiang Fengfeng didn’t want to delay the journey because of her condition, feeling slightly embarrassed, she said, "Sister, I’m healed now. We can set off today."

As she said this, Jiang Fengfeng attempted to get up, but her smooth forehead was already dripping with cold sweat.

"Fengfeng, don’t push yourself; lie down." Su Zhuyun frowned.

"Perfect timing. I have matters to handle and need to leave Dayang City for a while; three days is just enough." Luo Feng said.

"That’s your business to stay; it has nothing to do with me." Jiang Fengfeng lay back down, no longer forcing herself.

Su Zhuyun was helpless, looking apologetically at Luo Feng. Her junior sister had always been competitive since she was young, and she couldn’t do anything about it.

Luo Feng smiled faintly, got up and said, "In three days, I’ll be back on time. Then, we’ll head for the Sword Tomb."

After a brief goodbye, Luo Feng and Yue Haitang left the room.

"Luo Feng, do you need me to accompany you?"

Walking out of the courtyard, Yue Haitang asked.

Luo Feng shook his head, "No need, it’s just a minor matter."

"Then take care, finish your matters, and return early."

"Alright."

Luo Feng nodded and turned to walk beyond Dayang Mansion.

Leaving Dayang City, Luo Feng asked aloud, "Xuelian, do you know where there are the most Demon Beasts nearby?"

"It used to be around Thousand Trees Peak, but now there shouldn’t be many Demon Beasts there anymore. Besides Thousand Trees Peak, three hundred Baili away is the Blackrock Mountain Range, which is influenced by underground Evil Qi and teeming with ferocious Demon Beasts, making it a perilous place." Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber’s blood bead trembled, and Xuelian’s voice sounded in Luo Feng’s ears.

"Then let’s go there." Luo Feng found his direction, utilized Sky Cloud Step, shot into the sky, and swiftly headed toward the Blackrock Mountain Range.

On the way, Blood Fiend curiously asked, "Master, what are you doing there? The Blackrock Mountain Range is perilous, but that’s only to ordinary Martial Artists; it poses no threat to you. Given your strength, if you need training, you shouldn’t go there."

Luo Feng replied calmly, "I’m not going there for training; it’s for your healing."

His intention was simple: to restore Xuelian quickly so that the Demon Spirit Grass could bear fruits soon. When encountering danger, the counterpart could exert its strength.

Xuelian was silent; Luo Feng’s answer surprised her.

...

Blackrock Mountain Range.

In the dusky forest, a Wild Wind Wolf cautiously moved through the intertwined branches, making only slight noises. Its cold, bloodthirsty eyes flickered with a chilling gleam, reflecting a tall figure inside.

In the woods below, a young man carrying a saber walked slowly, seemingly oblivious to the hidden danger.

Suddenly, a sound of rushing wind echoed as the huge body of the Wild Wind Wolf fiercely lunged at the young man, its sharp claws shining with cold light.

Just as it thought it would succeed and feast.

Slash!

Without warning, a saber’s light appeared, and the Wild Wind Wolf’s massive head was severed, spurting blood.

Bang!

The body hit the ground with a dull thud, its eyes still harboring a chilling malice.

Even in death, it couldn’t understand how it had died.

"The Demon Beasts here are truly plentiful. So far, I’ve slain over two thousand Demon Beasts, haven’t I?"

Turning, Luo Feng looked at the Wild Wind Wolf’s body and spoke indifferently.

Since entering the Blackrock Mountain Range, two days had passed. During these days, he consistently hunted Demon Beasts, allowing Xuelian to absorb the beasts’ essence and restore Yuan Qi. Up till now, over two thousand Demon Beasts had met their end under his saber.

In these two days, he wasn’t just hunting Demon Beasts; he seized the opportunity to concentrate on training the Four Symbols Ultimate Saber, delving into its intent realm.

With each battle, the intent realm of the first three forms of the Four Symbols Ultimate Saber gradually neared perfection. All that remained for the fourth form was an opportunity, a sublimation within an epiphany.

Luo Feng believed that continuing this training would soon allow him to grasp the fourth form of the Four Symbols Ultimate Saber.

Whoosh!

Glancing at the Wild Wind Wolf’s corpse, Luo Feng swung Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber in the air, its Saber Qi cutting the body into pieces, the pungent smell of blood spreading.

Soon, the strong scent of blood attracted many Demon Beasts, with Luo Feng sensing through Soul Power about twenty to thirty Demon Qi whereabouts.

"Quite a number coming."

Luo Feng muttered to himself, his figure darting forward.

Bang!

As he departed, a huge shadow shot from both sides—a massive Demon Beast resembling a rhinoceros.

"Slash!"

Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber traced a striking trajectory in the void, effortlessly piercing through the beast.

Subsequently, an incredible scene unfolded. The blood threads densely covering Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber lit up, its blade turned crimson, and a stream of blood-red spirals extended along the threads towards the blood pill at the saber’s hilt, leaving the beast’s massive, mountain-like corpse shriveled in a blink, turning it into a dry corpse.

Swish!

With a swift movement, Luo Feng vanished, his shape weaving through the trees, slaying beast after beast.

Within moments, the entire forest was adorned with two or three dozen dry Demon Beast corpses.

"Xuelian, how much strength have you recovered?" Luo Feng asked.

"Reporting to Master, roughly seventy to eighty percent recovered." Xuelian’s voice conveyed a hint of joy; Luo Feng’s beast-slaying speed was faster than she imagined, as if he knew where the Demon Beasts were, his perception frighteningly sharp. Meanwhile, Xuelian understood why she couldn’t deceive Luo Feng earlier; probably, from the start, he had detected her true identity.

"Seventy to eighty percent...then today we should reach ninety percent recovery."

Luo Feng nodded, not wasting time, his figure soaring into the depths of the Blackrock Mountain Range.
