65: Late Night Killing

Leaving the auction, Ling Feng and Ling Di knew that countless eyes were secretly watching them. They did not linger in the capital and were rushing out of the city at an extremely fast pace.

However, if anyone paid close attention, they would notice that the direction Ling Feng and Ling Di were heading was not towards Qingyun Town.

Soon, they arrived at a dense forest outside the city.

Ling Feng stopped, a wicked smile playing on his lips.

Then, he spoke coldly, "You've followed this Marquis all this way; come out."

"Hahaha, as expected of the Marquis of Peerless Glory of the Great Chu Dynasty, you discovered us so quickly."

"But that's fine, it was bound to happen sooner or later. Boy, we brothers don't want your life, but we're a bit short on Spirit Stones lately and would like to borrow some from you to spend."

As Ling Feng's voice faded, a burst of laughter came from the side of the dense forest. Then, dozens of figures in black surrounded the two of them.

At this moment, Ling Di, standing beside him, saw this and his expression changed abruptly, his hand gripping his weapon tightened unconsciously.

Seeing this, Ling Feng subtly glanced around, then scoffed, "Hahaha, you can't possibly think you can rob me with just this group of people, can you? If so, you're underestimating this Marquis too much."

"I advise you to go back where you came from, lest you end up dying without even knowing how."

"Hmph, stop acting so calm. Do you think just two Heaven Martial Realm Martial Artists can kill all my brothers?"

"You should know, I have a full five Heaven Martial Realm Martial Artists here. Do you think you'll be a match?"

Hearing Ling Feng's taunt, the leading black-clad man snorted coldly.

"You reap what you sow. Since you are sincerely seeking death, then don't blame me."

"Attack!"

As Ling Feng's words fell, Ling Di's figure instantly shot out, his longsword unsheathed. His figure was like a ghost, constantly weaving through the crowd of black-clad men.

In an instant, screams continuously rang out. Wherever Ling Di's figure passed, the black-clad men clutched their necks and fell to the ground, all life extinguished.

In just a moment, all the black-clad men, including the five Heaven Martial Realm Martial Artists among them, were cut down by Ling Di's single strike.

Then, Ling Di sheathed his longsword and returned to Ling Feng's side, respectfully saying, "Patriarch, it's all handled."

"Hmm, well done!"

Hearing this, Ling Feng said with a smile. He wasn't particularly surprised that Ling Di had effortlessly slain all the black-clad men, including several Heaven Martial Realm experts.

After all, Ling Di's cultivation had already broken through to the Half-step King Warrior Realm. Slaying these black-clad men, let alone the current Ling Di, even when he was at Heaven Martial Realm Perfection, he could easily cut them down, not to mention now that he had already broken through to the Half-step King Warrior Realm.

Suddenly, at this moment, Ling Feng seemed to discover something, his face drastically changed, and he shouted loudly, "Not good!"

In a flash, an extremely sharp Sword Qi attack directly struck towards the location of Ling Feng and Ling Di.

Ling Feng immediately waved his hand, and surging spiritual power erupted from his body, instantly forming a defensive energy shield.

"Boom..."

Soon, the sharp Sword Qi attack directly slammed into the defensive energy shield constructed by Ling Feng.

"Who are you, you rat? How dare you sneak attack your young master? Do you dare to come out and fight? See if your young master doesn't beat the shit out of you, I won't believe it."

After the explosion, Ling Feng couldn't help but curse at his surroundings.

Once the smoke and dust cleared, Ling Feng finally saw who was still ambushing him here.

He saw several Disciples dressed in Heaven Sword Sect attire, led by an Elder, staring intently at the two of them from not far away.

"So, it's people from the Heaven Sword Sect."

"What? You couldn't defeat me at the auction, so you've come to get even?"

"Boy, if you know what's good for you, hand over the item quickly, otherwise, don't blame my sword for being merciless."

Hearing Ling Feng's words, coupled with the frustration he suffered at the auction, Chen Yi was the first to lose his temper. He stepped forward and said coldly to Ling Feng.

"Junior, hand over the item and I can spare your life today, otherwise, you will stay here tonight."

Then, the black-robed Elder beside him also slowly spoke, his tone cold and threatening.

Hearing this, Ling Feng's face was full of disdain, and he slowly said, "Are you so sure you have the strength to take us down?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ling Feng's figure instantly vanished from his original spot, like a meteor falling, his single hand forming a fist, directly striking towards the black-robed Elder.

Seeing this, the black-robed Elder's eyes were filled with scorn. A Martial Artist who had just entered the Heaven Martial Realm actually dared to attack him directly; this was simply asking for death.

However, since you're so eager to die, this old man will grant your wish today.

Then, the black-robed Elder also formed a palm with one hand and directly met Ling Feng's attack.

"Boom..."

A huge collision instantly echoed all around.

The moment they made contact, the black-robed Elder instantly regretted it; he had severely underestimated Ling Feng's strength.

"Bang..."

The black-robed Elder was sent flying backward the moment they clashed, slamming heavily into a giant tree, then collapsing to the ground, spitting blood, all life extinguished.

"What?"

Chen Yi and the others from the Heaven Sword Sect simply couldn't believe what they were seeing. Their Elder was a powerful Martial Artist of the Half-step King Warrior Realm, yet he was instantly killed by Ling Feng with a single punch.

Just how powerful was Ling Feng?

"King Warrior Realm!"

"It must be the King Warrior Realm!"

Otherwise, he couldn't possibly have instantly killed a Half-step King Warrior Realm Elder with one punch.

"We have no chance of winning, run!"

Thinking of this, even with all his unwillingness, Chen Yi still shouted at the other Heaven Sword Sect Disciples, comparing it to his own life.

Watching Chen Yi and the other Heaven Sword Sect Disciples scatter and flee, Ling Feng looked at Ling Di not far away, nodded, and said coldly, "Kill!"

Hearing this, Ling Di's figure instantly vanished from his spot, chasing after Chen Yi and the other Heaven Sword Sect Disciples.

Seeing this, Ling Feng then went to the corpses of the black-robed Elder and the black-clad men. After a thorough search, Ling Feng had dozens of Storage Pouches in his hand, which he then put into the System space.

Afterward, he hunted a Vicious Beast, found a place with spring water, and after cleaning up, he went to a relatively flat area to roast meat, while waiting for Ling Di's arrival...
