Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

One day later.

Ling Feng left the Lingshen Sect. Before leaving, he promised Duanmu Qingshan that if he ran into Lin Xian’er on the road, he would definitely persuade her to return to the Lingshen Sect.

Of course, Ling Feng didn’t really think he would run into Lin Xian’er again.

Everyone is destined to have their own path to walk. All he can do is his best; he’s not a god, he can’t arrange every step of everyone’s life.

After leaving the Lingshen Sect, Yeu Junyao started muttering again, ”You know, for someone who’s already at the Emperor Realm, you actually went and gathered such a bunch of shrimp soldiers and crab generals. The strongest one is only King-level. Such a weak sect is really a joke.”

”Naturally, I can’t compare with a scion of your Divine Race!”

Ling Feng’s brows knitted slightly. He had a special feeling toward the Lingshen Sect; it felt just like his own home.

A son doesn’t despise an ugly mother, a dog doesn’t despise a poor home. No matter what others say, the Lingshen Sect was still a force he had built up step by step.

Don’t look at how insignificant the Lingshen Sect is now; one day, even the Jiuli Divine Race will have to crawl at the sect’s feet!

”You! Hey, you’re not really that petty, are you!”

Apparently sensing that Ling Feng was a bit angry, Yeu Junyao bit her tender lip and didn’t dare say anything more.

Ling Feng took a deep breath and didn’t bother arguing with Yeu Junyao any further. He was still counting on her to pass him a Cultivation Technique for Refining Battle Soul.

...

They headed west all the way.

Three days later, Ling Feng arrived again at a familiar place: Luohai City.

This Luohai City lay beyond the Northwest Sky Tower Fortress and happened to be the border between the Sky White Empire and the Tianyang Empire.

Back then, Ling Feng had come to the Sky-reaching Fortress to temper himself and had had some dealings with the Northwest Army.

Speaking of which, the captain of the East Courtyard Sword Team back then, Goo Tengfeng, and the vice-captain, Gong Cheng, after graduating from the Heavenly Position Academy, had both chosen to join the Northwest Army. In a flash, more than a year had passed. Given the Goo Family’s status in the Northwest Army, Goo Tengfeng should be doing quite well by now.

As soon as he entered the city, Ling Feng felt that the city-guarding soldiers all looked extremely exhausted, and the stationed troops seemed to have increased severalfold. The whole atmosphere felt somewhat heavy.

Ling Feng frowned slightly. By rights, the Sky White Empire had only just quelled its internal turmoil not long ago; they were in no position to launch a war in the short term.

Could it be that something had happened on the border again?

He casually found an inn, ordered some light food and wine, then pricked up his ears to listen in on the conversations of the passing patrons.

Places like inns were often hubs of information.

Sure enough, before long, Ling Feng heard some information of value.

”You heard? That Blood God Sect seems to be showing signs of rising from the ashes again recently.” (PS: For details on the Blood God Sect, see Chapters 782 ’Xiling City’ to 789 ’The Demon Lord Reappears’)

”Yeah, I heard that over in the Western Wasteland, those terrifying blood-drained corpses have started appearing again!”

”So if you don’t have any pressing business, don’t head that way. I heard the Sky-reaching Fortress has already dispatched several elite units, but in the end, not a single one came back alive!”

...

Among the crowd, most Martial Artists were talking about the Blood God Sect, and Ling Feng’s brows grew tighter and tighter.

He naturally still remembered the Blood God Sect. Back then, it was that Blood Sword Heavenly Monarch, Lee Qingling, who relied on the Evil Qi in his Demon Sword to create a large number of Blood Spirit Corpses, scheming to use them to annihilate the Empire.

In the end, he and the Despicable Donkey had joined forces and shattered Lee Qingling’s plot.

Later, the Sky White Empire had that whole Yan Jinghong incident. Ling Feng had been busy fighting Yan Jinghong to the death and had, in fact, overlooked one person.

That person was Lee Qingling.

He hadn’t expected that Lee Qingling had quietly escaped the Imperial Palace that day and, once the storm had gradually died down, had gone back to his ”old trade” again.

”I’d wager that bastard Lee Qingling still hasn’t given up and wants to use living people’s Essence Energy to cultivate again!”

A trace of anger flashed in Ling Feng’s eyes. He should have completely uprooted him back then, but unfortunately, everything had been too rushed, and the world was vast; finding one Lee Qingling really was too difficult.

”This time, I have to completely get rid of him!”

Ling Feng thought it over and decided to first wipe out that Blood Sword Heavenly Monarch; only then could he feel at ease leaving the Sky White Empire.

”Mm, someone like that really should die early and get reincarnated early.”

Tuoba Yan also nodded. Back when Lee Qingling had been in Wangduan Mountain, he had often fanned the flames, intensifying the conflict between Elder Heiyu’s line and the Great Elder’s line.

Now, no one knew how many blood debts Lee Qingling was carrying; he truly deserved death!

”Ling Feng, I’m a bit worried about the situation in Wangduan Mountain. I’ll head back first. You stay here and get to the bottom of this Blood God Sect matter.”

Tuoba Yan glanced at Ling Feng and ultimately decided they should split up.

After all, Wangduan Mountain was also within the Western Wasteland. If the Blood God Sect was running rampant there, Wangduan Mountain would be in danger as well.

”This...” Ling Feng pondered for a moment, then still nodded. ”All right, then you return to Wangduan Mountain first. If I take care of the Blood Sword Heavenly Monarch before you, I’ll go to Wangduan Mountain to find you!”

With Tuoba Yan’s current strength, not only had she already advanced to Great Emperor, she also grasped the same Cold Moon Power as the Hui Yue Saintess. Even facing a Heavenly Destiny Realm Third Level Great Emperor, she wouldn’t necessarily be at a disadvantage.

That Blood Sword Heavenly Monarch might have a Demon Sword in hand and have his strength skyrocket, but he couldn’t possibly be that strong.

Tuoba Yan, at the very least, wasn’t lacking in the ability to protect herself.

Now that she was worried about Wangduan Mountain’s situation, going back once was perfectly reasonable.

”Mm!” Tuoba Yan nodded. ”Then there’s no time to lose; I’ll set off first!”

”Wait a moment.” Ling Feng glanced at Yeu Junyao and said slowly, ”Lady Yeu, how about you accompany Yan’er on this trip?”

If Yeu Junyao and Tuoba Yan acted together, then nothing could possibly go wrong.

”Tch! Not interested!”

Yeu Junyao rolled her eyes and refused outright.

”I’m more than enough on my own!” Tuoba Yan shot Ling Feng a glare and waved her small fist at him in a show of bravado. ”Who knows, I might even kill that Lee Qingling before you do!”

”Haha, maybe.”

Ling Feng gave Tuoba Yan a deep look and said in a low voice, ”Then you must be careful. If you really run into Lee Qingling, you absolutely can’t underestimate him. This person is far too treacherous!”

”Mm...”

Tuoba Yan bit her tender lip, her pretty face flushing for no reason. Was Ling Feng... worrying about her? It seemed she did still hold some place in his heart!

Thinking of this, Tuoba Yan felt a faint sweetness in her heart.

”Hey, you were the one saying there’s no time to lose just now!”

Seeing Tuoba Yan spacing out, Ling Feng couldn’t help waving his hand back and forth in front of her eyes.

”Got it!”

Tuoba Yan cast Ling Feng a resentful look, a flare of irritation rising in her heart. This guy was still the same as ever—completely clueless about tenderness!

With their decision made, the three of them split into two groups. Tuoba Yan headed straight for Wangduan Mountain, while Ling Feng decided to go to the Sky-reaching Fortress to first get a handle on the situation.

Along the way, he might even run into his former captain, Goo Tengfeng.
