CH 22

Roar!!

The roar of a dragon resonated throughout the forest as a golden light illuminated the light sky.

Ping!

Qin Feng channelled his Qi into his Dantian and swiftly thrust his palm forwards, resulting in a heavy sound of collision resonating amidst the forest.

The Sabertooth Tiger that was charging his way suddenly fell as if a kite that had its strings cut, sending the fallen leaves on the ground to fly. After its body twitched for a bit, it finally succumbed to its end.

“Ding dong! Congratulations to Master for preventing the Chosen One from showing off and gaining affection from women! You have obtained 500 villain points!”

“What kind of skill is this!” Lin San’s eyes bulged in disbelief, as if he had seen a ghost.

He had already considered Qin Feng’s Sky-Splitting Sword Technique to be scary enough, but he didn’t expect this Great Might of the Sky Dragon to be even more terrifying. A single move was enough to deal a fatal blow to the Ninth layer Phenomenal realm Sabertooth Tiger Demonic Beast.

Despite its severe injuries, for a Second layer Phenomenal realm cultivator to instantly kill a demonic beast at the Ninth layer was a great blow to Lin San, reputed as the best swordsman in a hundred years.

“Childe Qin is so powerful!” Zi Yuan’s gaze carried a strange look as her admiration for Qin Feng grew.

“Ding dong! Congratulations to Master for preventing the Chosen One from showing off and gaining affection from women! You have obtained 500 villain points!”

“Phew, these 500 points weren’t easy to earn at all!” Qin Feng exhaled deeply as he collapsed to the ground.

The damage of the Great Might of the Sky Dragon was indeed great, but its usage also had a cost of high energy consumption. It was as if he had gone through dozens of cold wars with his ex-girlfriend, rendering his legs as weak as tofu.

Pa! Pa! Pa!

Sounds of applause echoed from nearby, prompting the three to immediately turn their head toward the source in wariness.

A man with a knife scar on his face was leading a group of his underlings out of the forest. It was obvious from their clothes that they were from the Fierce Tiger Gang.

“Young hero, your skills are truly impressive!”

The gaze of the knife-scarred man swept over the three people. His tone turned cold as he asked, “If I’m not mistaken, it was you all who killed the disciples of our Fierce Tiger gang. Without a proper explanation, I fear that none of you will be able to leave.”

“Explanation?!”

Even before Lin San could open his mouth, Qin Feng already responded arrogantly, “For you to demand an explanation from my big brother Lin San, are you crazy? I’m telling you, this is just how we do things!”

“Pu!!”

A mouthful of blood almost spewed out of Lin San’s mouth. He desperately wanted to claim that he didn’t know Qin Feng.

“Big brother, I’ll go and rest for a bit. I’ll leave this trash to you!”

Qin Feng grabbed onto Zi Yuan’s small hand and walked away, not forgetting to flash a middle finger arrogantly before leaving.

“How daring!!” The knife-scarred man’s expression became dark as he lost control of the small universe within him.

He deduced that Qin Feng was a one-in-a-million prodigy after seeing his battle with the Sabertooth Tiger Demonic Beast. Initially, he just wanted a proper explanation so that he could appease his underlings. Yet, not only did Qin Feng refuse to give him any face, he even slapped his face in front of his disciples.

Even if his uncles could bear it, he couldn’t!

Even if his aunties could, he still couldn’t!

“It’s a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!”

Lin San quickly explained, “Actually, you should know this brother of mine. He is your master, the eldest young master of the Qin family, Qin Feng!”

“Qin Feng!!”

“Qin Feng!!”

“He’s Qin Feng!!”

The members of the Fierce Tiger gang started clamouring.

As a small influential force in the eastern region of Great Xia, they didn’t have the qualifications to ever meet the eldest young master of the Qin family. Still, they had definitely heard of him before.

The rumoured hope of the Qin family who had the Qualities of God. A child that reached the Phenomenal realm at eight years old and self-created the Sky-Splitting Sword Technique. Someone who had defeated the successor of the Sky Sword God……all these rumours about him were terrifying.

But what terrified them the most was the news that he had dug out his younger brother’s Sovereign Bones and betrayed and ran away from the Qin family.

The Qin family had already decreed a kill order for him, those that were able to kill Qin Feng would be rewarded a million high-quality spirit stones if they brought his corpse to the Qin family, and if he was captured alive, they would receive a Sky Treasure Gourd.

This was the piece of news that had shaken Huang Gu.

Those who were even slightly capable were all on their way here, and they truly didn’t expect to stumble upon this fat sheep.

“What does this mean?!” Lin San felt uneasy. This situation was far from simple.

After hearing the great name of Qin Feng, instead of kneeling down and pleading for forgiveness, the eyes of the gang members gleamed with intense hunger, as if they had come face-to-face with the most alluring beauty.

“Leave this person to me. The rest of you, go and chase Qin Feng!”

The knife-scarred man stared at Lin San solemnly. He no longer dared to underestimate these prodigies after witnessing the scene of Qin Feng’s terrifying combat ability when he killed the Ninth layer Phenomenal realm Sabertooth Tiger.

Furthermore, this youth was regarded as a big brother by the Qin Family’s devil, the eldest young master. He couldn’t even guess the terrifying extent of his combat strength.

Even a tiger would use its full strength to catch a rabbit.

“Yes!!”

Receiving his command, the members of the Fierce Tiger Gang quickly started their pursuit of Qin Feng.

Phew!

A terrifying aura rose from the knife-scarred man’s body, causing the surrounding air to tremble while the faint image of a fierce tiger manifested behind him.

“Fuck! This is the Third layer of the Spiritual Martial realm. He’s the gang leader of the Fierce Tiger Gang!” Lin San couldn’t contain his curses.

The knife-scarred man didn’t give him any time to react as he lunged at him, kicking off the ground beneath him, and started attacking Lin San.

‘The fierce tiger’s descent from the mountains!’

It was a common technique that the man was extremely proficient in, displaying a formidable might despite its simplicity.

Wherever he went, sand and stones flew in the air, leaving marks and cracks on the ground.

Dang dang!

The loud sounds of steel clashing reverberated throughout the forest, which caused the air to tremble.

Speedily drawing his sword, Lin San blocked the incoming strike, their forces colliding with a powerful impact. The shock travelled up his left arm, causing numbness and forcing his longsword to slip from his grasp.

“You’re indeed not an ordinary cultivator!” The knife-scarred man was shocked inwardly.

A cultivator at the Fourth layer of the Phenomenal realm could actually block an attack from the Third layer Spiritual Martial realm. He had no choice but to increase his power as he tried to end the fight as fast as he could.

“No, he’s too strong. Do I have no choice but to use that move?!”

Lin San resented Qin Feng in his heart. He hadn’t expected him to betray him like this.

“Ding Dong! Congratulations to Master for scheming against a Chosen One! You have obtained 2,000 villain points!”

Qin Feng was currently madly running while holding Zi Yuan’s hand, praying for Lin San to be more useful and stall more time for them.

“If we leave like this, what about Childe Lin?!”

Zi Yuan’s face was full of worry. She wasn’t okay with betraying a teammate like this.

“Don’t worry, he’ll be fine!”

Lin San was on a completely different page; betraying a teammate was completely okay with him. In fact, he would be even happier if he could betray a few more Chosen Ones.

“But……” Just as Zi Yuan was about to voice her doubt, the clanging of swords could be heard behind them as glimmering sword lights and the suppressive sword Qi covered the forest.

Before Qin Feng and Zi Yuan could react or even check if it was the disciples of the Fierce Tiger Gang pursuing them, they were quickly struck by the relentless onslaught of a sword Qi.

Pu!

A mouthful of blood spewed out of Zi Yuan’s mouth as she fainted in Qin Feng’s arms.

“What the fuck?!”

Looking at the unconscious Zi Yuan in his arms, fatigue overwhelmed Qin Feng, making him feel as if he had reached his limits, yearning to simply lie down and do nothing.

Darkness crept back into the forest, while the grass rustled beneath them. There were small animals around engaged in fierce battles, and sounds of their combat rang through the forest.

As dawn approached, small white flowers would bloom, revealing their red stigmas that would sway at the blow of the wind—an embodiment of the colour of life……
