Chapter 74: Chapter 074 Wuqing Executes a Ruthless Kill
âBrother Feng, where are we going to practice? To Tianzhou?â Liu Qingyang asked excitedly after leaving the Liu family residence.
Feng Wuchen responded calmly, âRight here in Yunzhou.â
âYunzhou?â Miao Qingqing was startled and inquired, âWhere in Yunzhou?â
âWeâre being followed. Qingyang, Qingqing, you go ahead to the outskirts of the city. Keep walking, and donât look back. Iâll come to find you,â Feng Wuchen suddenly furrowed his brows as if he had sensed something, speaking in a low voice while he swiftly made his way to another street.
Having learned from last time, Feng Wuchen was now being smarter, making sure no one would know of his whereabouts.
Liu Qingyang and Miao Qingqing headed towards the outskirts of the city without turning back, pretending as if nothing was amiss.
...
âSo soon someone has set their sights on us. Theyâve really got some nerve, planning to make a move on Brother Feng within the city?â Liu Qingyang said with a frown, anger in his voice.
âThey wouldnât dare. Theyâre probably planning to track us and wait for a chance to kill Brother Feng,â Miao Qingqing said in a hushed tone.
Feng Wuchen entered another street before slipping into an alley and then using Instantaneous Movement to leave.
By the time the trackers caught up, Feng Wuchen had vanished without a trace.
âQuite bold of them to think of dealing with me so soon. Iâll play along with them, leisurely. If thereâs a first, thereâs bound to be a second,â Feng Wuchen thought with a cold smirk, a dangerous curve forming on his lips.
As he spoke, Feng Wuchenâs figure disappeared out of thin air, not in a rush to find out who was behind it all.
After a few uses of Instantaneous Movement, when Feng Wuchen reappeared, he had already arrived at the outskirts of the city.
Upon reaching the outskirts, Feng Wuchen surveyed his surroundings with caution.
âSuch strong auras! It seems many are waiting for me to leave the city! Even masters of the Yuandan Realm have come!â Feng Wuchen inwardly frowned, sensing many eyes focusing on him.
It was as though he was being watched by venomous snakes, an extremely uncomfortable feeling.
âHmph! You really think waiting for me to leave the city will allow you to deal with me? Youâre underestimating me!â Feng Wuchen said with a cold laugh and then quickly dashed away.
At the city gate, a man in his early thirties appeared. He was somewhat handsome, dressed in black silk, with long hair cascading over his shoulders, his brows furrowed tightly, exuding a powerful aura.
âAs expected, he left the city! This kid is no simpleton; his movement technique is extremely adept. He dares to leave the city so soon; he truly has no idea of life and death,â the man murmured with knitted brows, then quickly followed.
Meanwhile, the powerhouses hidden outside the city gate also started their pursuit.
These experts had all disguised themselves well, and their affiliations could not be discerned.
Inside the city, they might not dare to take action, but once outside, no one could help Feng Wuchen.
General Wu was back at his post, and the strong allies of Feng Wuchen had already left three days prior.
Liu Qingyang and Miao Qingqing, walking ahead, were both worried about Feng Wuchenâs safety; they had left the city for quite some time and still hadnât seen Feng Wuchen catching up.
âWhy hasnât Brother Feng come yet? When we left the city, I felt like someone was watching us,â Liu Qingyang said with great concern, anxiety written all over his face.
While they were worried, Feng Wuchen quickly caught up to them.
âGrab my hand!â Feng Wuchen commanded in a low shout, rushing forward and grabbing the wrists of Liu Qingyang and Miao Qingqing, instantly using Instantaneous Movement to disappear.
The pursuing experts were about Eighthfold Transformation Realm, not much slower than Feng Wuchen, and since he was also taking Liu Qingyang and Miao Qingqing with him, he had to use Instantaneous Movement.
âBrother Feng, I felt so many people were watching outside the cityâŠâ Liu Qingyang said anxiously, but before he could finish, he was stunned.
Miao Qingqing beside him was also stunned, unable to comprehend what had just happened.
âIs⊠is this Instantaneous Movement?â Liu Qingyang said in bewilderment after a moment of shock.
One second, they were not far from the city; the next, they were already in a forest a hundred meters away from Luan Tian City.
âYou two head to Tian Yun Mountain immediately. Theyâre after me and wonât target you. Go now! Iâll lead them away!â Feng Wuchen said urgently as the two quickly maneuvered through the woods.
Feng Wuchen glanced back, with his figure vanishing in a flash, and in a blink, he was back at where he started, on the edge of the forest.
The trackers, upon seeing Feng Wuchen appear from nowhere, were all taken aback.
âWhat kind of movement technique is this, to appear out of thin air?â one of them thought in shock, having never seen such an eerie technique.
âSo many are tracking me; are they all here to kill me?â Feng Wuchen mused with a faint cold laugh, his frosty gaze sweeping over the experts scattered around.
From their attire, Feng Wuchen couldnât tell which power they belonged to; obviously, they came prepared.
âYou brat, thinking of dominating Yunzhou, keep dreaming!â a man shouted angrily.
âGentlemen, it seems our goal is the same. This kid has a tricky movement technique, why donât we join forces? If we donât kill him, weâll eventually be trampled under his feet,â another man suggested.
âHis movement technique may be tricky, but he canât hide his aura. Merely a Fourth Layer Transformative Realm, he wonât get away!â a hefty middle-aged man said grimly.
âLetâs do it!â another man commanded coldly, charging forward as the first attacker.
Feng Wuchen extended his hand, and the Fiery Blade appeared out of nowhere. Unperturbed, he smirked, âKnowing who I am and still daring to come to kill me, youâve really got some nerve.â
Among the eleven, only one was at the Eighth Layer of the Transformative Realm, while the rest were between the Fifth and Seventh Layers, posing no threat to Feng Wuchen.
With the power of the Dragon God activated, Feng Wuchen rotated his arm, the Fiery Blade flashed brightly, and a chilling killing intent struck terror into the hearts of others.
âA high-grade treasure! There must be plenty of treasures from a Fifth Grade Artifact Refiner, eh?â
âHeâs also an Alchemist! After we kill him, weâll divide the loot!â
âThis kid is very powerful, be extremely careful!â
Greed for the Fiery Blade incited them, and the others charged forward, propelling their True Yuan.
âSwoosh!â
âSssst!â
Feng Wuchenâs silhouette disappeared in an instant, and when it reappeared, a head was already flying out, accompanied by spurting blood.
The Transformative Realm Sixth Layer was instantly killed!
Feng Wuchen sneered, âI donât care who you are. Since you want to kill me, you must die!â
His voice was very cold, chilling to the bone.
The instantaneous killing of the Transformative Realm Sixth Layer terrified many.
They had no idea what movement technique Feng Wuchen had used; it was too bizarre, too fast!
The weakest among them, at the Transformative Realm Fifth Grade, turned around and ran in fear after witnessing this scene!
âTch!â
In another instant, another head flew, and the fleeing man died a gruesome death.
âWhy bother leaving since youâve come?â Feng Wuchen said coldly, his icy gaze sweeping over the other men.
Killing intangibly, his terrifying movement technique was deeply feared.
âHmph!â A man at the Transformative Realm Eightfold tier snorted coldly, channeling his True Yuan with all his might, and sped towards Feng Wuchen, seemingly confident in his superior speed.
Unfortunately, the moment the man charged, Feng Wuchen had already disappeared again.
âWhoosh whoosh!â
âTch tch!â
The figure twinkled twice in succession, and two more heads were sent flying, the victims killed so swiftly they couldnât even react.
âRun! This kid is too terrifying!â As several others died in the blink of an eye, the rest were driven to the brink of panic.
They couldnât even capture a glimpse of Feng Wuchenâs figure; what chance did they have? Werenât they just delivering themselves to death?
âHeâs like a ghost!â
âRun! Donât stay and get killed!â
Five or six men tried to flee in terror, their souls practically leaving their bodies.
âEasy to come, but leaving will be difficult!â Feng Wuchen sneered, employing Instantaneous Movement once again.
âWhoosh whoosh whoosh!â
âTch tch tch!â
The figure flickered instantaneously, too fast to pinpoint Feng Wuchenâs location; in just an instant, the fleeing menâs heads were sent flying!
In less than a minute, eleven men were mercilessly slain by Feng Wuchen, leaving only the master of the Transformative Realm Eightfold tier alive.
From the beginning, Feng Wuchen had dodged his attacks, focusing on eliminating the less threatening enemies first.
In confronting his enemies, Feng Wuchen was never merciful and did not hold back; instead, his brutal methods spread terror among them.
With a cold stare at the man, Feng Wuchen sneered, âYou donât flee; do you believe you have the strength to kill me?â
âYou can try!â the man said solemnly, his expression grave.
Feng Wuchen sneered and in an instant, he had moved to the manâs left side, the Fiery Blade sweeping across.
The man narrowed his eyes, glancing to his left, and immediately threw out a punch.
Feng Wuchen, sensing the punch, furrowed his brows; he felt an extremely powerful fist heading his way and immediately abandoned the attack, ducking low and sliding dangerously under the manâs fist.
âThe Transformative Realm Eightfold is indeed different; he can catch my aura!â Feng Wuchen thought to himself with a frown.
Instantaneous Movement was indeed a fearsome technique, but against a strong opponent, especially one far surpassing Feng Wuchen in strength, it lost its effectiveness.
A master of the Transformative Realm Eightfold had an absolute advantage in strength and speed.
Feng Wuchenâs true combat strength was only equivalent to the Transformative Realm Seventh Level; with a four-tier disparity in realms, the power difference was vast, making this a ferocious battle!
âYour movement technique might be bizarre, but you cannot fool my perception!â the man snorted coldly, launching himself ferociously at Feng Wuchen.
The power of the Transformative Realm Eightfold was incredibly strong; should Feng Wuchen be struck even once, he would be severely injured.
âIllusionary Sword Technique, Illusionary Ruination of Heaven and Earth!â Feng Wuchen exerted all his might to channel the power of the Dragon God into the Fiery Blade, followed by a low shout as he swept the blade in a mighty arc.
âWhoosh!â
A golden sword aura a zhang in length, carrying a ferocious momentum, tore through the sky, the trees collapsing in rows wherever it passed.
âHigh-grade Yellow-tier martial technique, Wuji Heavenly Fire!â the man chanted, bringing his hands together; a fierce Fire Attribute True Yuan burst forth.
He pulled his palms apart, and a blazing orb of fire coalesced, which he hurled with a powerful blow.
âBoom!â
âPuh!â
The collision of two formidable forces resulted in a thunderous explosion, an energy ripple spreading outwards. Feng Wuchen spat out a mouthful of blood, his body sent flying backward, completely unable to resist the power of the Transformative Realm Eightfold.
âWhat terrifying power! This strength is even scarier than the Transformative Realm Seventh Level, yet he is only at the Fourth Layer! How is that possible!â The man was profoundly shaken, retreating several steps, disbelieving as he gazed at Feng Wuchen.
âI was too reckless!â Feng Wuchen gasped, his body aching intensely, his injuries not light.
âNo! I must finish him!â The manâs killing intent surged more intensely as he was increasingly shocked. Seizing the opportunity of Feng Wuchenâs injuries, he charged once again.
