Wayfarer

Chapter 65: Killing One and All

After Xiao Nanfeng killed two cultivators in succession, he picked up a long blade from the ground and struck at the remaining six.

The six of them shied away in fear, none having expected Xiao Nanfeng to possess such insane strength. He had killed two people with his fists alone—and they were Immanence-realm cultivators, too!

As the cultivators panicked, Xiao Nanfeng appeared right by their sides.

The scene from before had given them an innate fear of Xiao Nanfeng. When they saw him approach with a blade, they instinctively defended.

Just then, the Immortal Cicada appeared behind one of the cultivators like a shade, piercing through his chest with a clean snick. The cultivator's chest exploded in a fountain of blood, shrieking in such a ghastly fashion that the other cultivators found their scalps prickling.

Suddenly, Xiao Nanfeng tossed out his blade at one of the cultivators in a raging torrent of energy. The cultivator managed to avoid the projectile, only to see the Immortal Cicada flying toward his forehead the next moment. A large hole was drilled into his forehead on impact.

The Immortal Cicada had killed yet another cultivator!

Xiao Nanfeng had killed six of the cultivators in the blink of an eye, taking advantage of his initial momentum and the panic of the resulting cultivators. The remaining four were frightened beyond measure. They retreated quickly and glanced at him warily, worried that he would continue his killing spree.

They thought to flee, but Xiao Nanfeng cried out, "Are you trying to flee? It's too late. Whoever runs first will be the target of my flying sword!"

The four cultivators were paralyzed with fear. None dared move, worried that they would be the next target.

Meanwhile, Xiao Nanfeng walked toward the Lady Arclight, huffing out a breath. "I apologize for the delay, Elder, and for causing you a shock."

"It's not an issue." The Lady Arclight was shocked by the change in Xiao Nanfeng. His tremendous combat ability went beyond the expectations of the enemy cultivators—and hers, as well. He was impossibly strong for a new Immanence-realm cultivator. Please visit fr𝐞𝐞w𝒏.𝒸𝑜𝔪 website to read fastest update

"Elder, don't you worry. For beheading my senior brother, I'll make them pay. I'll take their heads and use it as an offering for my deceased seniors!" Xiao Nanfeng cried out, stepping forward and shielding the Lady Arclight protectively.

"Crow spirits! Charge forward with me and kill him, now!" a black-armored cultivator commanded the two Immanence-realm crow spirits hovering in the air.

"Deal with the bodies. We'll be on our way!" Xiang Wei commanded.

"Second Master, the crow spirits have discovered the pond, but there are quite a few Ascension-realm beasts in the vicinity. I'm afraid it'll be dangerous," one of the black-armored cultivators reported.

"Aren't you all Ascension-realm cultivators yourselves? We even have these four golden crow generals here, so what's there to fear? Father has gone toward the divine domain to compete for opportunities, so the three great natural havens of the spirits' domain belong to us three Xiang siblings! Of course we have to claim them. Let's continue!" Xiang Wei commanded.

"Understood!" everyone chorused.

Deep within a hidden valley, the Lady Arclight had exchanged her Taiqing robes for blue armor, just like Xiao Nanfeng. Although the crow spirits would occasionally spot them overhead, they weren't recognized.

The two of them ignored the scouting crows as they are Xiao Nanfeng's roasted pheasant, prepared with a special marinade.

"It tastes alright, though it's a little light on flavor," the Lady Arclight evaluated.

Xiao Nanfeng: ... Could she have been lying any more blatantly? She had eaten the majority of the pheasant!

"Elder, where are you bringing us?" Xiao Nanfeng asked.

"I don't know!" The Lady Arclight shook her head, tearing off a strip of meat from the wing of the pheasant.

Xiao Nanfeng: ???

"By the Spiritsong realm, you'll develop extreme sensitivity to spiritual aether. It's the most concentrated in that direction, and since we don't have any other target, why not head there? The more dense the spiritual aether, the faster I'll be able to recover." The Lady Arclight pointed past the hills in the distance.

"Is that so?" Xiao Nanfeng glanced in that direction with some worry.

There were quite a few giant birds hovering in the air above those hills. Perhaps the spiritual aether was denser in that region, but it was surely more dangerous, too! However, Xiao Nanfeng didn't object. He needed the Lady Arclight to recover more quickly so that she could help him find Yu'er.

After the meal, the two of them set off once again. They encountered fewer and fewer Immanence-realm lifeforms and more Ascension-realm ones instead, all of whom seemed to be heading in the same direction as they were.

Xiao Nanfeng cautiously any confrontations with the spirits by scouting ahead with spiritual power.
