This Child Should Be Executed!

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The battle outside Feihuang City lasted for nearly an hour before finally drawing to a close.

A total of forty-six monsters were counted, with forty-one slain and five sealed by the Feihuang Sect for future use.

Two peak-level pract.i.tioners from the Mountain Sea Realm, a Fourth-Tier peak-level Tree King, several late-stage Mountain Sea Realm pract.i.tioners, along with dozens of early-stage pract.i.tioners, such top-notch forces unexpectedly took such a long time to deal with.

This clearly indicates the tenacity of these monsters.

If it were any other group of Mountain Sea Realm pract.i.tioners or monsters, facing the might of the Feihuang Sect, they would likely be vanquished in less than fifteen minutes.

Luan Qinghui stood in mid-air, about to lead everyone back to Feihuang City, when suddenly he turned his head to the southeast.

There, Luan Qinghui sensed a fleeting presence, similar to the monsters just encountered, yet undoubtedly much stronger in power.

Where did you all go, and how many monsters are there? Luan Qinghui turned to Qiu Zesheng and Xu Jinglun, his voice deep.

We went to the Qingxu Gorge! We sensed something amiss and quickly retreated. These were the monsters chasing us at the time, Qiu Zesheng stepped forward, bowing respectfully.

Luan Qinghui furrowed his brow slightly. Qingxu Gorge was tens of thousands of miles away from here.

Normally, if there were other monsters present, they would have intercepted Qiu Zesheng and the others, making it impossible for them to flee such a long distance and arrive here.

But Luan Qinghui was confident in his perception of the presence he had just sensed.

With this in mind, Luan Qinghui turned to his junior brother, s.h.i.+ Zijin, one of the only two peak-level pract.i.tioners in the Feihuang Sect.

Reserved and seldom smiling, s.h.i.+ Zijin was truly the backbone of the Feihuang Sect.

Understanding Luan Qinghuis intent, s.h.i.+ Zijin nodded. He had also sensed the presence of a monster to the southeast, but by the time he tried to lock onto it, the presence had vanished.

Luan Qinghui pondered. He wanted to pursue and investigate, but he feared it might be a ploy to lure them away.

Even with the difficulty they faced against the Fourth-Tier early-stage monster, the situation would only be more complicated with other monsters of similar strength.

Return to the city!

Luan Qinghui commanded, leading everyone back to Feihuang City.

Though the Feihuang Sect was powerful, they were not willing to face the monsters alone.

The defensive formation of Feihuang City remained open, leading the residents to initially a.s.sume it was out of caution by the Feihuang Sect, to prevent any unexpected occurrences.

It wasnt until a moment later that the Feihuang Sect issued a public notice. Fear not, for there are still monsters lurking outside the city. The city shall remain closed for one month, and no one shall be allowed to enter or exit! Upon seeing the notice, everyone finally understood that the situation was far from over.

The closure of Feihuang City didnt affect Chen Fei much; he continued his cultivation in seclusion within the inn.

Thousands of miles away in Thousand Geese City, all was calm.

Thousand Geese City was already a remote location in the Middle Continent, with relatively scarce resources due to its isolation. However, fewer people paid attention to it, including monsters and monsters.

Moreover, with two Mountain Sea Realm pract.i.tioners and a monster king within the city, under normal circ.u.mstances, they were sufficient to protect Thousand Geese City from any disturbances.

A month pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye, and nothing happened outside Feihuang City. After reporting to the Qingyan Sacred Land, they immediately dispatched personnel to Qingxu Gorge, only to find no monsters there.

Representatives from the Qingyan Sacred Land arrived at Feihuang City and, along with Luan Qinghui, conducted a thorough investigation around the citys perimeter, yet found no trace of any monsters.

It seemed as if those monsters had once again concealed themselves, just as they had hidden in Qingxu Gorge before.

Several days later, representatives from the Qingyan Sacred Land departed, taking away one sealed monster.

Feihuang City continued its closure for another ten days, confirming that there were indeed no issues before lifting the citys lockdown.

Inside the Yixiang Tavern, Zeng Huaizheng looked towards the inn several miles away.

With the lifting of the lockdown in Feihuang City, many people left directly on the same day. Zeng Huaizheng felt that the person he was waiting for might take advantage of this opportunity to leave.

So, early in the morning, Zeng Huaizheng waited here, ready to inform Saint Xizhou and the others immediately if he noticed the person leaving the inn or making any moves to leave the city.

This wait lasted from morning till night.

And then another month pa.s.sed.

With the lifting of the lockdown in Feihuang City, Chen Fei naturally knew about it. However, his cultivation had reached a critical moment, so he decided to stay in Feihuang City.

Moreover, whether the monsters were still outside the city was unclear. Despite Feihuang Citys efforts to search, they found no trace of them.

Chen Fei wasnt in a hurry anyway. For safetys sake, staying within Feihuang City was undoubtedly the safest option now. Besides, if any danger arose, there was still a peak-level Mountain Sea Realm pract.i.tioner to rely on.

Especially with the Fourth-Tier peak-level Tree King beneath his feet, it was impossible to break through its defense without reaching the fifth tier.

The Bloodline Origin Shadow Technique had finally reached perfection a few days ago.

At this moment, Chen Fei didnt need to summon his avatar. He already knew that as long as he had enough spiritual essence, he could forcefully elevate his avatar to the Mountain Sea Realm.

This process required a considerable amount of spiritual essence, so much so that even a pract.i.tioner of the same level in the Mountain Sea Realm probably couldnt facilitate a successful breakthrough for the avatar.

However, Chen Fei had a plan. He still possessed two low-grade spiritual treasures. By extracting the spiritual essence from these treasures and infusing it into his avatar, he should be able to barely achieve the breakthrough.

The only drawback was that it would be difficult to let the avatar dissipate freely in the future. If it were accidentally destroyed, the cost of re-condensing it would be significant.

After completing the cultivation of the Bloodline Origin Shadow Technique, Chen Fei began to practice the Nine h.e.l.ls Profound Slaying Sword. With the blessing of his innate talent as a sword cultivator, the progress of the Nine h.e.l.ls Profound Slaying Sword was quite remarkable.

Another reason why Chen Fei was reluctant to leave the city recently, apart from the obvious safety concerns outside, was that the Purple Cloud Profound Demon Sword was steadily approaching perfection.

It had to be said that despite being damaged, the Sacred Land technique, the Purple Abyss Heavenly Thunder Technique, had greatly accelerated Chen Feis advancement in his main cultivation technique, particularly in terms of absorbing the essence of heaven and earth.

Thus, Chen Fei was very curious to know how much his cultivation speed would increase once he perfected the Purple Cloud Profound Demon Sword.

It had been almost three months since the monsters approached the city, and Chen Fei had unexpectedly spent over half a year in Feihuang City.

Since arriving in the Middle Continent, apart from Thousand Geese City, Feihuang City was the city where he had stayed the longest.

Chen Fei was willing to stay here not only to immerse himself in his cultivation but also perhaps due to the presence of the Tree King beneath his feet.

This Fourth-Tier peak-level monster could automatically adjust the spiritual energy within a radius of a hundred miles, making it easier for one to absorb and enter a state of meditation.

It was a subtle influence that made one unable to help but enjoy the environment here.

However, in just over ten days, Chen Fei would be able to perfect the Purple Cloud Profound Demon Sword, and then he would truly set off to return to Thousand Geese City.

Perfecting the Purple Cloud Profound Demon Sword wouldnt be achieved in just a few months; it wasnt feasible to stay in Feihuang City indefinitely. Besides the rapid progress in his cultivation techniques, with his innate talent as a sword cultivator, after half a year of wielding his sword, Chen Fei had already broken through the proficiency realm and was advancing towards perfection.

Reaching perfection could be accomplished within the next few months.

The speed at which he cultivated with such talent would sound like a fantasy to others.

While Chen Fei remained at ease, practicing methodically, Zeng Huaizheng and the others were growing increasingly frustrated. Even Chi Shengsheng, known for his good temperament, was starting to become impatient.

Even the members of the Feihuang Sect were somewhat surprised that Zeng Huaizheng and the others were still in Feihuang City.

Naturally, the Feihuang Sect paid attention to these Mountain Sea Realm pract.i.tioners from the Heavenly Illusion Valley. They had expected them to leave in the first few months, but they had remained until now.

However, the Feihuang Sect didnt inquire further. As long as Zeng Huaizheng and the others didnt cause trouble in Feihuang City, the Feihuang Sect didnt mind how long they stayed.

Another ten days pa.s.sed quickly.

As usual, Zeng Huaizheng arrived at the Yixiang Tavern, gazing towards the inn several miles away.

Zeng Huaizheng and the others had suspected whether their actions had been discovered by Chen Fei, causing him to delay their departure.

But soon, this idea was dismissed.

Saint Xizhou had been staying in the courtyard recently, avoiding any confrontation with Chen Fei. As for the other members of the Heavenly Illusion Valley, Chen Fei had never seen them, so there was no chance of being discovered.

So, is Chen Fei really considering Feihuang City his home now, planning to stay here for a long time to cultivate?

As Zeng Huaizheng lifted the tea on the table and took a sip, his expression suddenly changed. His gaze swept over to the inn several miles away, and he noticed someone leaving the inn, heading towards the east gate.

Zeng Huaizhengs eyes lit up suddenly, and after observing for a moment, he finally confirmed that the person was indeed leaving the city!

From the initial decision to kill Chen Fei to now, where they finally see him leaving the city, several months have pa.s.sed. Theyve been forcibly detained here for so long.

This kid must be dealt with!

Zeng Huaizheng activated the jade talisman in his sleeve, transmitting the message to Saint Xizhou and the others, while he continued to watch Chen Feis direction.

In less than a moment, Saint Xizhou and Qi Yunhong appeared in front of Zeng Huaizheng.

So, that kid is finally leaving the city? Qi Yunhong asked, his face showing a hint of joy.

Yes, hes heading towards the east gate, Zeng Huaizheng nodded, then looked at Saint Xizhou and Qi Yunhong with a puzzled expression.

What about Brother Chi and Brother Cheng?

Someone from the Feihuang Sect invited Brother Chi and Brother Cheng. They might not return so soon, Saint Xizhou explained.

Qi Yunhong remarked that none of them had expected Chen Fei to leave the city today, resulting in an incomplete team.

So, what do we do now? Zeng Huaizheng looked towards Saint Xizhou, as this matter had started because of him.

This person is stronger than me, so I directly teleported back to the valley that day. Both of you are not inferior to me in strength, so with the three of us together, there should be no problem in subduing him, Saint Xizhou said after some thought.

If were worried about any surprises, we can follow him for now. Brother Chi and Brother Cheng have received your message and will arrive shortly. We can take him down together when they arrive, Qi Yunhong suggested.

Although Qi Yunhong felt that three against one would leave no room for any surprises, waiting for Chi Shengsheng and Cheng Rong to arrive would also allow them to share whatever Chen Fei had on him.

Alright, lets follow him for now, Zeng Huaizheng agreed after a moments thought.

In fact, three people attacking one was already giving the other party face.

That kid has left the city. Lets go!

Zeng Huaizheng glanced in Chen Feis direction, threw a few spirit stones on the table, then disappeared in a flash inside the tavern, with Saint Xizhou and Qi Yunhong following closely behind.

Twenty miles away, Chen Fei left Feihuang Citys east gate and then soared into the sky.

The Purple Cloud Profound Demon Sword finally reached perfection. At this moment, a stream of sword essence swirled between Chen Feis fingertips, with faint purple thunder radiating within it.

A hundred miles away from Feihuang City, Chen Feis brow suddenly furrowed slightly. Without any visible movement, he continued flying forward.

Eight hundred miles away, Chen Feis figure suddenly disappeared from where he was.

Several tens of miles away, Zeng Huaizhengs expression froze for a moment. The perception that had been locked onto Chen Feis whereabouts suddenly vanished.
