Martial Arts Overlord
Chapter 1230 - 1227: Only the Mediocre Are Not EnviedIn response to Shui Linglong’s questioning, Gu Xifeng swept her eyebrows lightly and coldly snorted:
"Shui Linglong, I, Gu Xifeng, have conducted myself with integrity all my life, and would not blame Luo Feng for such a trivial matter."
Shui Linglong calmed down, showing bewilderment: "Then why?"
"Being envied means you have abilities."
Gu Xifeng waved her white sleeves and said: "Luo Feng has outstanding talent, the most exceptional genius of our Linglong Hall. He will encounter various enemies in the future, and some will definitely surpass him in power. You can help him this time, but can you help him for a lifetime?"
Shui Linglong gently pressed her red lips; Gu Xifeng was right. Luo Feng will surely travel outside the Canglang Dynasty in the future, and she cannot always help him resolve crises.
"A true strong person is not assisted into becoming one. Besides, the little girl with Luo Feng this time is a Sword Tomb Silver Swordman, very powerful. Together they face the Blood Crow Elder, not necessarily a mortal situation. They have gone southeast; you decide what you want to do."
After finishing her words all in one breath, Gu Xifeng glanced at Shui Linglong, said nothing more, and turned to walk away.
Shui Linglong stood in place, lightly pressing her lips, hesitating several times, finally making up her mind to abandon the plan to follow them.
The road, ultimately, must be walked alone.
The people who can truly become strong are those who can still survive tenaciously in tough situations.
...
Above the sea of clouds, two figures flew swiftly, cutting the air and making sharp cracking sounds.
Luo Feng and Jiang Fengfeng were ahead and behind, like two birds quickly shuttling through the clouds.
Jiang Fengfeng pushed her Qinggong to the limit, closely following Luo Feng, her smooth forehead already sweaty, her breathing somewhat more rapid than usual.
She originally believed that with her cultivation and Qinggong, she could easily surpass Luo Feng.
Unexpectedly, the other’s Qinggong realm was extraordinarily high, she had pushed her speed to the limit, chased for so long, the gap between them not only did not decrease but instead grew wider.
"Hey, you... slow down!"
Finally, a crisp voice rang, Jiang Fengfeng couldn’t help calling to Luo Feng.
Luo Feng did not slow down, turning his head towards Jiang Fengfeng, whose face was flushed from holding her breath, and faintly smiled, "What, you, a distinguished Sword Tomb disciple, your Qinggong cultivation is not yet better than mine?"
Having been provoked by her several times previously, Luo Feng decided to play a little trickery on this capricious girl.
"Who said I can’t catch up to you!"
Jiang Fengfeng raised her eyebrows, biting her silver teeth, and shouted, "I was just thinking of your True Yuan consuming too quickly, considering for you. If things continue like this and danger arises, I won’t be saving you."
"Haha, thanks for your consideration. My True Yuan is nothing for you to worry about."
Luo Feng laughed, pushing the True Yuan, accelerating again, his figure shooting out like lightning.
He can accelerate even more!
Watching Luo Feng disappear ahead, Jiang Fengfeng’s beautiful eyes widened slightly, she thought Luo Feng had reached his limit, now it seems, not so.
But having already spoken, to admit defeat to Luo Feng, she definitely could not, Jiang Fengfeng bit her silver teeth, pushed her entire True Yuan to the extreme, tightly chasing behind Luo Feng.
They traveled several dozen more miles, the distance between them now several miles.
Jiang Fengfeng stared ahead at Luo Feng, anxious and annoyed, if things remained like this, she would surely lose him, she opened her mouth several times wanting to ask Luo Feng to wait, but the words stuck every time, her small face flushed with frustration, suddenly pulling out the silver sword at her waist and swung it forward.
Swish!
The sword light flashed, splitting the cloud layer in front of Luo Feng, causing Luo Feng to stop.
"What, could it be you can’t catch up to me?"
Luo Feng turned to look at Jiang Fengfeng, faintly smiling.
Jiang Fengfeng’s eyebrow twitched, coldly snorting: "Don’t misunderstand, I thought there were Demon Beasts lurking earlier, that’s why I acted."
"So that’s how it is, then let’s continue our journey. I was just wanting to test where my Qinggong limits lie." Luo Feng did not tear down Jiang Fengfeng’s excuse, turning to leave again.
"Wait a moment."
Jiang Fengfeng panicked inside; earlier, she had just barely managed not to fall behind by using all her strength. If Luo Feng accelerated again, she would surely not be able to catch up.
Coming to Luo Feng’s side, Jiang Fengfeng looked up to meet Luo Feng’s seemingly smiling eyes, stomping in anger, "I admit my Qinggong is not as good as yours, but that’s only in Qinggong. When it comes to real strength, I could defeat you with one sword."
"Really?"
Seeing Jiang Fengfeng’s aggrieved expression, Luo Feng was in a great mood, not taking Jiang Fengfeng’s words seriously.
Now with the third transformation of Divine Dragon Nine Changes, Cloud Dragon Transformation has already advanced to the sixth level, his True Yuan quality is comparable to a third-layer True Yuan Realm Martial Artist, in terms of cultivation, not lagging much behind Jiang Fengfeng. However, because the Sword Tomb’s swordsmanship is too formidable, he lacks confidence in winning, but for her to defeat him, it’s not an easy task.
Not intending to continue teasing, Luo Feng used Qinggong, traveled along the river below, and continued the journey.
Jiang Fengfeng chased after him, taking out a map to look at, frowning, "Luo Feng, heading to Panlong City should involve crossing Yunlan River and heading south."
Clang!
Luo Feng waved a slash, severing a shadow in the river waves, nodding, "I know. This tsunami has caused the Yunlan River to overflow, quite a dangerous Demon Beast has entered the river, possibly threatening lives along the banks. I’m planning to take a detour back to Panlong City, also clearing away formidable Demon Beasts along the way to prevent harm."
The distance from here to Panlong City is not far, just over ten thousand miles, hurrying at full speed takes only one or two days, there’s no need to rush.
Jiang Fengfeng was still annoyed by being teased by Luo Feng earlier, hearing him say this, she immediately pursed her lips and said, "Deep sea Demon Beasts aren’t as easy to deal with as you think, a slight mistake would cost your life."
Her eyes rolled, Jiang Fengfeng looked at Luo Feng with a sarcastic smile, "But, if you were to ask me nicely, I might help you."
"No need, if I can’t handle it, you’re no match either. It’s better to run if it comes to that." Luo Feng shook his head.
Luo Feng’s comment was meant as a provocation, falling on Jiang Fengfeng’s ears as a challenge, making her eyebrows arch, tightly pursing her lips, secretly swearing to find an opportunity to show Luo Feng something.
They used Qinggong, heading upstream towards Yunlan River.
Affected by the tsunami, Yunlan River’s waters rose dramatically, looking out, the view was an endless stretch of water, unable to see the end, waves crashing against the shores, echoing with rumbling sound.
Luo Feng purposefully flew close to the water surface, flying less than a mile, the water surface soon showed massive shadows converging towards him and Jiang Fengfeng.
Giving no chance for Demon Beasts to emerge, Luo Feng punched the water surface, a fiery whirlwind blasted a vortex into the river, dragging the nearby shadows in, instantly turning the water crimson.
Jiang Fengfeng, following behind, seeing this scene, a faint trace of surprise flickered in her eyes.
Luo Feng breaking through to the second layer of True Yuan Realm, she had not taken that much to heart.
After all, a Martial Artist’s strength is not only about cultivation but also closely related to the Martial Arts cultivation technique they practice; Canglang Dynasty, a small dynasty, doesn’t compare to Sword Tomb in depth. Even a casual swordsmanship Secret Manual from Sword Tomb would suppress all cultivation technique Secret Manuals of the Twelve Golden Palaces.
However, Luo Feng’s strength surprised her.
From the punch’s power earlier, already approaching a third-layer True Yuan Realm Martial Artist.
Jiang Fengfeng didn’t know, Luo Feng’s actual strength was not just chasing a third-layer True Yuan Realm Martial Artist, but comparable to, or even exceeding a third-layer True Yuan Realm Martial Artist.
