6: Encountering difficulties on the road? Stomp them down.

The trip to Black Spring Village was a Perfection, and the Yun Family team embarked on their journey home.

They had been nervous and apprehensive on the way there, but on the way back, the atmosphere was relaxed, and the team was full of laughter, with the focus of conversation naturally being the "lucky star" Yun Feng.

Yun Feng continued to maintain a low profile; facing the praise of his Family members, he just smiled shyly, attributing everything to "luck" and that non-existent "miscellaneous book."

But he could feel that the gazes of his cousin Yun Hao and the two deacons towards him already carried genuine importance.

Following the path they had taken, the team quickly re-entered the outskirts of the Black Forest.

However, this ease did not last long.

Just as the team was about to pass through a clearing in the woods and approach the jurisdiction of the City of Radiance, a series of arrogant shouts and the clanging of weapons suddenly came from ahead.

"Get out of the way! All of you, get out of my way! Didn't you see our Ye Family people doing business?"

Ahead on the small path, seven or eight youths, dressed lavishly and with arrogant expressions, were surrounding a brother and sister who appeared to be Loose Cultivator Spirit Masters.

Several Wind Wolf corpses lay on the ground, clearly having just gone through a battle.

The brother of the pair seemed to be injured; his sister was supporting him, her face pale, and facing the aggressive Ye Family disciples, she dared not speak out in anger.

"It's the Ye Family people!" Yun Hao's face darkened, and he waved his hand, signaling the team to stop.

The Sacred Aristocratic Family was one of the four Peak Families in the City of Radiance, with immense power, and had always acted domineeringly.

"What's going on?" Yun Hao stepped forward and asked in a deep voice.

A leading Ye Family youth, with a cultivation of roughly Bronze Two Star, squinted at the Yun Family attire on Yun Hao and the others, a look of undisguised contempt on his face: "Who do I think it is, turns out to be people from the Yun Family.

This is none of your business, scram! These commoners stole the Wind Wolves we, the Sacred Aristocratic Family, hunted, and we are carrying out Family law!"

The Loose Cultivator sister immediately retorted with a sobbing voice: "You're lying! These Wind Wolves were clearly hunted by us, brother and sister, at the cost of our lives! You suddenly appeared and wanted to snatch them!"

"Hmph, evidence? Our Sacred Aristocratic Family's word is evidence!" The Ye Family youth sneered, raising his hand to grab the Loose Cultivator girl.

The Yun Family disciples were immediately filled with indignation; the other party was clearly abusing their power to bully others!

But the other party was the Sacred Aristocratic Family, whom their Yun Family could not afford to provoke...

For a moment, though everyone was angry, they dared not speak out in anger, and could only look towards their leader, Yun Hao.

Yun Hao's face was ashen, his fists clenched.

He wanted to stop them, but for the sake of the Family, a direct conflict with the Sacred Aristocratic Family was absolutely not a wise move.

Just at this moment of stalemate, a slightly timid voice once again sounded from the back of the Yun Family team:

"Um... big brothers of the Ye... Ye Family, I... I think I saw a Wind Wolf cub run into the bushes over there..."

Everyone was stunned and looked in unison at the source of the voice.

It was Yun Feng again!

He looked like he was scared by the scene before him, yet couldn't help but speak up, his finger trembling as he pointed to the dense bushes on the other side of the clearing.

The leading Ye Family youth impatiently cursed: "Where did this useless busybody come from? Get lost! What kind of cub!"

However, before he finished speaking—

"Awoo—!"

A wolf howl, full of terror and anger, suddenly came from the bushes Yun Feng pointed to!

Immediately after, a huge, gray figure, far more robust than the Wind Wolves on the ground, pounced out like lightning, its target directly the leading Ye Family youth closest to the bushes!

A Bronze Four Star Yao Beast — an Alpha Wolf!

This was clearly the leader of the Wind Wolves, enraged by the previous battle and the death of its companions, lurking nearby to seek an opportunity for revenge!

The incident was sudden, and the Ye Family youth had no time to react; he only felt a foul wind in his face, and the shadow of death instantly enveloped him!

He was Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering with fright, unable even to make a blocking motion, and could only watch as the blood-filled maw rapidly enlarged before his eyes.

The other Ye Family disciples behind him were also stunned, and for a moment, no one stepped forward to rescue him.

It seemed a tragedy was about to happen!

At the critical moment!

"Watch out!"

With a "panicked" shout, Yun Feng, who was standing not far away, seemed to have his legs give way from the sudden change, and with an "Oh dear," he "lost his balance" and fell forward.

His fall was at an extremely tricky angle, hitting the waist of the terrified Ye Family youth perfectly.

"Bang!"

The Ye Family youth, struck by this "accident," immediately twisted to the side, narrowly avoiding the Alpha Wolf's fatal pounce!

But he himself, due to an unstable center of gravity and excessive fright, stumbled, and with a "thud," fell face-first, knocking out one of his front teeth, his mouth full of blood, looking utterly disheveled.

And Yun Feng, after "knocking down" the Ye Family youth, also "couldn't stop himself" and "fell" in the direction of the Alpha Wolf that had pounced and landed.

To outsiders, he was just a terrified, extremely unlucky fellow, seemingly about to deliver himself to the Yao Beast's mouth!

"Yun Feng!" Yun Hao and the Yun Family disciples were horrified.

However, the next scene made everyone's eyes almost pop out.

The "stumbling" Yun Feng, just as he was about to collide with the Alpha Wolf, seemed to trip over something again (a perfectly placed protruding stone?), and his body executed an extremely awkward, uncoordinated spin, his seemingly wildly flailing arm, his elbow "coincidentally" and heavily striking the Alpha Wolf's vital kidney area, which had just landed and whose old strength was spent and new strength not yet born!

"Crack!" A faint, almost wolf howl-covered sound of bone fracturing.

"Woo-awoo—!" The Alpha Wolf let out a distorted, tragic howl, its massive body stiffened as if struck by a giant hammer, then softly collapsed to the ground, blood overflowing from its mouth and nose, twitching twice, and then directly died!

One strike!

A seemingly impossibly coincidental strike actually instantly killed a Bronze Four Star Alpha Wolf!

The entire forest clearing was dead silent.

Everyone's mouths hung open, looking at the dead Alpha Wolf on the ground, then at Yun Feng, who had fallen to the ground, covered in dust and grass, grimacing and clutching his elbow, as if he himself had been badly hurt by the collision.

The Ye Family disciples were dumbfounded.

The Loose Cultivator brother and sister were stunned.

All the Yun Family members, including Yun Hao and the two deacons, were petrified.

What... what the hell kind of luck was this?!

No, this could no longer be explained by luck!

But if it was strength... how could Yun Feng's clumsy movements, without any Soul Power fluctuations, be a disguise?

Yun Feng, clutching his arm (pretending), got up with a look of "lingering fear" and "bewilderment," looking at the Alpha Wolf's corpse on the ground, mumbling: "It... why isn't it moving? I... I didn't do it on purpose..."

The leading Ye Family youth, his mouth full of blood from the fall, was helped up, looking at Yun Feng as if he had seen a ghost, his gaze mixed with fear, anger, and disbelief.

He wanted to utter some harsh words, but looking at the Alpha Wolf's corpse on the ground, and then at Yun Feng's "innocent" expression, the words were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't say a single word.

"Let's go!" he roared indistinctly, leading a group of equally terrified Ye Family disciples away quickly and dejectedly, not even bothering with the Wind Wolf corpses on the ground.

It wasn't until the Ye Family people disappeared into the woods that the Yun Family members suddenly snapped back to their senses.

"Yun Feng! Are you alright?" Yun Hao was the first to rush over, checking on him anxiously.

"N-no, nothing, just my arm seems to have been hit..." Yun Feng continued to grimace.

"My goodness! Brother Yun Feng, you... you again..." Yun Qiao pointed at the Alpha Wolf on the ground, too excited to speak.

The Loose Cultivator brother and sister walked forward, about to kneel to Yun Feng: "Thank you, benefactor, for saving our lives!"

Yun Feng hastily "clumsily" dodged: "No, no, no, I just... I just didn't stand steady..."

The two Yun Family deacons walked over and carefully examined the Alpha Wolf's corpse.

When they saw the completely shattered bone at the kidney area, they gasped.

That position was one of the Wind Wolf's fatal weaknesses, but to hit it precisely in that situation, in that manner... was it really a coincidence?

Their gazes towards Yun Feng were filled with extreme complexity and scrutiny.

Yun Feng chuckled inwardly, concealing his achievements and fame.

pretend to be a pig to eat the tiger, the most crucial part is to "pretend" convincingly.

He not only resolved the conflict, saved people (and incidentally taught the arrogant Ye Family youth a lesson), but also gained the Materials of a Bronze Four Star Yao Beast for free, and further solidified his persona as a "lucky star" and "hidden powerhouse (luck version)."

After this incident, the atmosphere on the Yun Family team's return journey became even stranger.

Everyone's gaze towards Yun Feng carried a reverence as if looking at an "auspicious sign" and an "unsolved mystery."

Yun Feng was happy for the peace and quietly tallied his gains from the trip: Black Rhinoceros Beast Materials (indirect credit), Glimmering Evil-Warding Stone, Alpha Wolf Materials (direct "luck"), and... a quietly elevated status and sense of mystery within the Family.

He believed that once he returned to the Family, the story of his "magical" experience would soon spread.

And this was exactly what he wanted.

"Ye Family..." Yun Feng's eyes flickered slightly, a hint of coldness flashing across his eyes, "This is just the beginning."
