Under the cover of night.

The figure in black performed a body-movement spell.

It looked as though he was running close to the rooftops, but in fact, his feet were off the ground, and he moved very quickly, comparable to the “Wind Spirit Steps.”

Ye Feng, unable to cast spells, could only run across the rooftops, causing tiles to occasionally fall off.

Fortunately, all the people in the area were asleep, and even if tiles fell, the people inside the houses assumed it was just a cat passing by and didn’t pay much attention.

“Damn it, who is this guy, and why is he so terrifying, like a humanoid demonic beast, with relentless strength?” The figure in black looked back and, seeing Ye Feng getting closer and faster, his face paled with fear, and he hurriedly sped up.

“Don’t even think about escaping!” Ye Feng shouted.

Seeing a brick on the rooftop, Ye Feng swept his feet, kicking it to burst into pieces, which flew towards the figure in black.

But the reaction of the figure in black was swift, as if he had a flash step; he suddenly turned midair, pushed out his palm, and emitted a two-meter-tall semi-transparent dark gold palm print, blocking the brick fragments and using the force to fly out more than ten meters.

“Hah!”

Ye Feng watched as the figure dressed in black got further away from him, not expecting the opponent to be so slick; he quickly sped up to chase after him.

The pursuit went on for half a quarter of an hour.

Eventually, Ye Feng followed the figure to a forest near the southern part of the city. Although still within the city’s borders, there were noticeably fewer buildings here, far less bustling than the city center.

The figure in black darted through a wide-open gate and disappeared. Ye Feng followed closely and came to a stop in front of the gate.

“Heixuan Gate!”

Ye Feng frowned slightly at the sign above the door.

Could it be that this person has colluded with Heixuan Gate, since he has so brazenly fled inside?

With many questions in mind, Ye Feng stepped through the gate, only to find the front courtyard empty.

“Where is everyone?”

Ye Feng remained vigilant, noticing that Heixuan Gate covered a large area, divided into front courtyard, inner court, and back courtyard, spanning more than ten acres.

However, he couldn’t find anyone in either the front courtyard or the inner court.

Only when Ye Feng reached the back courtyard did he discover the ground peppered with the bodies of more than thirty individuals dressed in the black disciple uniform of Heixuan Gate—all of them disciples, and all already lifeless and cold.

“Hehehe, chasing me? Then die!”

A cold, hoarse voice came from all around, making it impossible to pinpoint its exact location.

The next moment, the disciples lying on the ground lept up, their bodies rapidly expanding into two-meter-tall wolf creatures, emitting a strong demonic aura.

Their eyes glowed green, their hands transformed into claws tougher than fine iron, and they pounced toward Ye Feng like arrows leaving a bow.

“Resurrected from the dead, or are these puppet transformations?”

Ye Feng frowned deeply and threw a punch at the oncoming wolf creature, sending it flying backward to crash into several other wolf creatures.

The defense of the wolf creatures was not strong; they couldn’t withstand a punch from Ye Feng. After a few exchanges, they all fell to the ground, gradually crumbling into ashes.

“Although I don’t know who you are, I will make sure you die today!”

The chilling, hoarse voice sounded again, its exact location still a mystery.

Ye Feng looked around, ready to make his escape, only to find four glowing flags flying from a distance, landing in the four corners of the back courtyard.

Hum…

On the ground and in the air, numerous intricate, ancient characters and lines appeared, intertwining to create a barrier of formation.

Ye Feng leapt up, punched the barrier, and though it produced a thunderous noise and violently twisted, he couldn’t break through it.

“This is the ‘Four Spirits Sword Array’, a miniature formation capable of eradicating anyone below the Element Gathering Realm. Let’s see if you can avoid death,” the hoarse voice taunted once more.

Clang!

Under the night sky, suddenly the sound of swords clanging erupted, and Ye Feng lifted his head to see a Spiritual Artifact longsword with a nicked edge descending from the sky, slashing out a blinding arc of light.

Ye Feng leapt up, clapped his hands together, and trapped the longsword between them, rendering it unable to escape no matter how much it struggled.

But then with a “clang,” a sharp dagger stabbed towards the back of Ye Feng’s head from behind, its speed surpassing the reaction limits of a typical Qi Refinement Ninth Stage cultivator.

Luckily, Ye Feng’s sense of danger was highly acute. His right hand seized the Spiritual Artifact longsword while his left hand executed a “Turn Back and Draw,” grasping the incoming Spirit Blade dagger.

“How is that possible?”

The person in black operating the “Four Spirits Sword Array” from the shadows was dumbstruck.

He could tell that Ye Feng was strong, but he was also certain that Ye Feng couldn’t withstand the formation, yet who could have know, that this freak would catch the blades barehanded. It was terrifying!

“Although I don’t know where you’re hiding, I do know ‘one force can subdue ten techniques,’” Ye Feng, driven to anger, summoned a two-meter-tall Spirit Origin Clock. Clamping it between his legs, he hurled it with all his might, smashing it into the formation’s defensive shield with a thunderous roar.

Crack!

The protective shield of the formation cracked, the Formation Flags placed at the four corners of the courtyard snapped in two, and the Spiritual Artifact longsword and dagger lost their guidance , becoming powerless.

And at this moment, Ye Feng who was midair just so happened to spot the person in black hiding outside the courtyard.

“Caught you!”

Ye Feng hurled the longsword and dagger in his hands, severing the black-clothed person’s legs.

“Ah!”

The black-clad figure cried out in pain, pulled out a glowing beast skin Talisman from his chest, slapped it on the ground, and then his whole body tunneled into the earth, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

“Dammit!”

Ye Feng had just reached nearby when he stomped on the ground, causing a large depression to form.

Unfortunately, the person in black had already gotten away.

“Look, it seems a great battle happened at Heixuan Gate, let’s go check it out!”

“Go check it out? Are you tired of living?”

The commotion of the battle had already attracted the attention of the people around, and a squad of Black Armored Guards approached upon hearing the news, however, the person leading them was not Vice Commander Zhou Jiacai.

“This place is not safe to stay for long!”

Ye Feng quickly picked up the short sword and nicked longsword from the ground, as well as the four flags of Heixuan Gate’s backyard, getting ready to take off.

At that moment, beneath the ashes of a Heixuan Gate disciple that had been burned to dust, Ye Feng discovered a square metal piece with strange patterns. He picked it up on impulse, leaped over the wall, and quickly vanished into the evening light.

Shortly after.

A squad of Black Armored Guards arrived at Heixuan Gate.

The leader was a Qi Refinement Ninth Stage deputy commander with sideburns, his eyes sharp as knives, directing his men to surround Heixuan Gate and investigate everything here.

“Who the devil dares to cause trouble at our Heixuan Gate… Eh, where’s the Sect Leader, and my brothers?” Half a quarter of an hour later, a young voice rose in front of Heixuan Gate.

The person speaking was Li Hanshao, who had just returned from drinking at Goulan, gaping at the total chaos at Heixuan Gate, and wondering if he had walked into the wrong place.

“Are you a disciple of Heixuan Gate, Li Hanshao?”

The sideburned deputy commander approached and asked.

Seeing the serious expression on the other person’s face, Li Hanshao had a bad feeling and asked, “Vice Commander Zhang, what has happened to our Heixuan Gate?”

Vice Commander Zhang patted Li Hanshao’s shoulder, “After investigation, Heixuan Gate has been controlled by a demonic beast. Except for the Sect Leader who has disappeared, all other disciples have been ‘demon-wolf-ized,’ and moreover, they have been eradicated by a mysterious powerful being.”

“What…what did you say?”

Li Hanshao felt as if he had been struck by thunder and could not laugh anymore.
