28 Heading Ou

"Wow Feng, who would have thought that such a devilish technique, would actually work such wonders?" Violet told Feng as she got up from the bed.

"It is thanks to those blacksmiths. On the way over, they ran into a devilish group of bandits and gifted me this technique." replied Feng as he finished making hand signs.

Glub Glub Glub!

The blood on the bed started to bubble up, until it started to form together into a blood diamond.

"We shouldn't make this technique public since blood diamonds are extremely beneficial to a cultivator's cultivation and we can't allow something so precious getting into outsiders hands."

"Here Violet, pick out a human and gift this to them in exchange of becoming your assistant. It would be good for you to have someone who owes you so much by your side. If in the future, I need to leave your side, I want you to still be safe." said Feng as he gave the blood diamond over to Violet.

"I understand your worries. Are you really going to leave soon on that journey? Right now you are the face of the whole sect and a local overlord of this whole area!"

"With you not present, wouldn't that make us vulnerable? Our foundation is finally situated, are we going to take such a risk so early on?" Violet asked as she started to put a new set of clothes on.

"We both know that I could cultivate in peace for as long as I live, but only by experiencing true danger, would I be able to reach my potential." replied Feng as he kissed Violet on the forehead.

"Besides, while I am away, the army will begin attacking other areas as well. Since I haven't personally gone into battle for a while now, none of our enemies will realize that I am gone."

"As long as I keep my identity hidden, I can explore new areas without anyone realizing who exactly I am. Plus, I will not be bringing along too many escorts since this is about personally experiencing danger and overcoming obstacles." putting a fresh set of clothes on himself, Feng started to walk out of the room.

"Feng, if I do not see you before you leave, I just wanted to wish you luck." Violet said as she went into the shower so she could freshen up.

Using a cloning technique, Feng broke off into his original body and a single clone. Sending the clone off to his quarters, his original body started to head towards the side of the castle.

"Sir." kowtowing, two servants paid his respects towards Feng as he quickly equipped a mask to change his facial appearance.

"Have you decided where we are heading out to milord?" asked one of the servants. This servant was very muscular and was dressed in very expensive looking battle armor. This servant was at the fifth level of cultivation and would be considered a local tyrant in a well established city in these parts.

"I've heard that cultivators are starting to head towards he Ice Cavern about fifty kilometers to the south." the other servant mentioned. This servant had a mysterious aura to him and was wearing a pitch black cloak. This servant, was also at the fifth level of cultivation and was just as formidable as the other servant.

"The Ice Cavern is far away enough from us to where no one should recognize my techniques or voice. I think that is a splendid idea!" Feng said in a praising manner. To Feng, he deeply cared about these two powerful servants. If he could praise them, they would serve him that much more if push came to shove!

"Milord is very wise." feeling pleased with himself, Feng's servant kowtowed once more before their three man squad headed out.

According to the rumors, not many experts were heading towards the Ice Cavern due to the level of danger. However, those who did, were doing so for a secret treasure called the "Ice Serpent's Poison". This poison was rumored to be able to kill an expert of the seventh cultivation level!
