Chapter 1342 - 1339: Flame Gold City, Interest!

The sky was blue, the clouds white, and a blazing sun hung high, lavishly spreading its warmth across the earth.

In the sky, four figures sliced through the wind, leaving trails of wispy clouds behind them.

Continuing northeast for one or two thousand li, Luo Feng and the others had already left the Red Flame Desert and entered the Dali Dynasty’s territory.

Looking down from the sky, the earth was a vast expanse of green. The boundless plains were covered with large plots of Spirit Plants growing vigorously, like a sea of green when viewed from afar.

Having seen days of desert, the sight of such vibrant life was refreshing, making them feel rejuvenated.

From the height, Luo Feng noticed many figures working in the fields; some seemed unable to bear the solitude of farming and were sparring with each other in the fields.

After observing closely, Luo Feng was somewhat surprised.

These ordinary laborers generally had cultivation above the Meridian Wheel Realm’s third level. Back in Panlong City, individuals with such strength could choose a faction to become guards, yet here, they were just regular farmers.

Yue Haitang seemed to notice Luo Feng’s confusion and said:

"The Dali Dynasty is abundant in Yuan Qi, with a strong national power. People here value Martial Arts, coupled with a prosperous life, so even ordinary farmers possess considerable strength."

Luo Feng sighed internally; the world was vast, and what he had seen was just a speck.

The Dali Dynasty was considered a middle-ranking dynasty in the hundred realms, yet it was already such a scene. It made him wonder how thriving the four great dynasties and the Out Cloud Country’s true great nations would be...

Jiang Fengfeng looked down, pursed her red lips, and said, "They’re just a bit stronger in vitality than ordinary people. Without extraordinary talent or fortuitous encounters, their achievements in life will end here. On the Martial Arts path, refining vitality and soul, tempering the body, resource, talent, and effort must all be present. Otherwise, how could it be said that out of ten thousand Martial Artists, it’s hard to find a single Spiritual Rotation Realm Martial Artist?"

Luo Feng nodded. Along the journey, he’d witnessed many geniuses fall; in cultivation, one cannot afford to slack off even a bit, or one will be washed away by time’s tide.

The four of them conversed and traveled. By noon, a colossal city appeared before them.

The city’s walls were a hundred meters high, entirely crafted from Yellow Rock Yuan Ore, sparkling under the scorching sun, resembling a gold-built city with an imposing aura, quite magnificent and beautiful.

"Ahead is Flame Gold City; let’s go down."

Su Zhuyun exhaled gently and descended.

Yue Haitang and Jiang Fengfeng also followed suit.

Luo Feng was about to fall in when he suddenly remembered Xuelian and asked, "Xuelian, can you hide your Demon Qi?"

Xuelian’s laughter echoed, "It’s not hard. Our Blood Demon clan often hides among people. Without special Qi observing techniques or reaching the Soul refining realm’s Splitting Soul Realm, one’s true form can’t be discerned. Of course, there are exceptions. If there’s someone with insight as sharp as the master’s, they might see my true form."

Luo Feng chuckled lightly, "Then come out."

He was confident in his Soul Power; surely, there wasn’t a second person in the world with a Soul Power as strong as his. As for Splitting Soul Realm experts, they weren’t seen everywhere.

With a flicker of blood light, Xuelian appeared by Luo Feng’s side, catching up with Su Zhuyun and the others.

Nearby Martial Artists were continuously coming and going, but they didn’t notice them. However, with Xuelian’s appearance, the group immediately became the center of attention.

Luo Feng’s broad blue robes still couldn’t hide Xuelian’s exquisite and enticing figure. Fiery gazes were drawn to her, envying Luo Feng, who walked before Xuelian, but mostly jealous.

This left Luo Feng speechless; he didn’t intend for Xuelian to attract so much attention, but it seemed inevitable. Aside from Xuelian’s stunning form, a beauty dressed in male attire was quite odd in itself.

Just as they were approaching the city’s gate, a long-faced young man suddenly stopped ahead, accompanied by an elder, blocking their path.

"It’s Shi Family’s Young Master!"

"Heh, Shi Family’s Young Master is known for his flirtation. Seeing such an exceptional beauty, how could he not be moved?"

"There’s a good show coming."

Nearby people paused to watch.

"Is there something you need?"

Luo Feng stopped, looking at the newcomer with an expressionless face. The youth was in his twenties, dressed lavishly, presumably a wealthy young man; his cultivation was ordinary, only mid-Spiritual Rotation Realm; the elder behind seemed just to have broken through the True Yuan Realm.

The youth ignored Luo Feng’s inquiry and focused on Xuelian’s graceful figure, smiling, "Miss, this attire does not match your beauty. Most clothing stores in Flame Gold City belong to our Shi Family. Please visit us, and I’ll have a suitable outfit prepared for you. What do you think?"

Xuelian’s seductive red lips curled into a smile, "I could, but the price from Yao Qing might not be low..."

The youth rejoiced internally and quickly said, "What price must I pay? As long as you ask, I’ll make it happen."

Xuelian licked her lips, "Your life."

The youth was stunned but forced a smile, "Miss loves to joke."

Xuelian’s gaze fixed on the youth, "I’m not joking. Will you agree or not?"

The youth’s face stiffened, and he instinctively took a step back.

Luo Feng glanced at him, shook his head, and said to Xuelian, "Let’s go."

With that, Luo Feng turned to leave.

The youth’s face slightly darkened, and the elder behind him understood, stepping forward to block Luo Feng, "Young man, our Young Master hasn’t finished speaking..."

"Scram!"

Luo Feng’s gaze turned cold, and he struck out a palm.

Bam!

The elder just felt a chill in his body and heard wind roaring in his ears, retreating ten meters, leaving two deep footprints on the ground.

"How dare you attack someone!"

The youth raged, about to act, when suddenly the elder who was knocked back turned pale, spitting a bloody mist, and kneeling.

"Elder Xu!"

The youth was shocked; how could Elder Xu, a True Yuan Realm Martial Artist, be struck and spit blood with one blow?

Most people around also began to look at Luo Feng with respect, abandoning their earlier dismissiveness.

The elder lifted his head in fear, glanced at Luo Feng, and said to the youth, "Young Master, don’t be reckless. He’s a True Yuan Realm Martial Artist, and not an ordinary one at that."

True Yuan Realm Martial Artist!

The youth’s face turned pale.

Luo Feng no longer paid attention, proceeding to the city gate with Yue Haitang and others.

Xuelian slightly detoured past the youth, flashing a charming smile, "Goodbye, Shi Young Master."

Finishing, Xuelian departed, and the youth’s body trembled slightly. In that moment, he suddenly felt a chilling sensation piercing to the bone, freezing his heart, as though his blood would freeze, causing him to collapse into a sitting position, lost and soulless.

"What did you do just now?" Luo Feng glanced at the youth, asking.

Xuelian opened her hand, revealing a drop of condensed blood pearl spinning, which then vanished into her white skin, disappearing.

"Just taking a little interest from him, it won’t threaten his life. But recovering might take three to five months." Xuelian smiled.

Luo Feng was speechless; the Blood Demon clan’s tricks were truly astounding.

Conflicts happen every moment; this minor episode didn’t cause much uproar. The five followed the crowd to the city gate, each paying a twenty first-grade Yuan Stone entrance fee, smoothly entering the city.
