Chapter 333 - 333: Tan Xiao Monk!
At the same time.
The "female ghosts" around them and the drifting ghost fires also vanished into thin air.
The road returned to tranquility.
The moonlight shone brightly again.
"Alright, that was easy!" Qin Feng dusted off his clothes.
Ai Yeqing beside him was utterly astonished.
She had never imagined that defeating the White-clothed Ghost King, who was a Grandmaster, could be so simple!
"Uh."
Qin Feng, thinking she was unimpressed by his deception, explained, "Even without using the Dragon Seeking Plate to distract him, I could have dealt with him. It's just easier this way."
"..."
Ai Yeqing didn't say a word.
Actually, she was amazed at how powerful Qin Feng's hand was.
Even though he had diverted the White-clothed Ghost King's attention, it was different from the case with the Black Robed Bearded Man. The Black Robed Bearded Man knew Qin Feng was slashing with a knife and chose not to dodge, intending to withstand the strike, but ended up dead.
However, the White-clothed Ghost King was not like that.
Given his Grandmaster cultivation, let alone Qin Feng's Inner Strength Martial Disciple level, even she herself felt she might not have been able to achieve a surprise attack in that instant.
Yet Qin Feng's single stroke was so swift the White-clothed Ghost King couldn't even dodge in time, only realizing he had been struck as his neck spurted blood.
So, the speed of Qin Feng's cut was utterly beyond ordinary!
"Alright, let's keep going!"
Qin Feng said.
The two continued forward.
Without streetlights, the road was dark and quiet.
"By the way, why did you have me deliver the final blow both times? You could use the Life and Death Blade just the same!" Ai Yeqing couldn't help but ask.
"I was testing you," Qin Feng replied, "You're lucky, you've got more nerve than Fang Wudi. If it were him, his legs would probably turn to jelly."
"Testing me?"
"Of course, and also to let you understand your own power now," Qin Feng said. "Didn't you notice any change when you used the Thunderstorm Fist?"
"Now that you mention it, it does seem different," Ai Yeqing mused, "Previously, when executing the Thunderstorm Fist, it required gathering strength in my entire body and palm. Just now, it seemed much easier and the power seemed greater too."
"It doesn't just seem greater, it is greater. The strand of Immortal Energy I infused into you a few days ago has also improved the strength of your body to a new level."
As Qin Feng spoke, he picked up a watermelon-sized rock from the roadside and tossed it to Ai Yeqing, "Try it."
Ai Yeqing immediately threw a punch.
This punch didn't utilize the unique "Master Power" of a Half-step Master, just the pure strength of her fist.
Boom!!
With one punch, the hard rock shattered!
"So strong?!"
Ai Yeqing was astonished, her eyes wide as she looked at her fist, then asked Qin Feng, "So, the power that Fang Wudi used to fight a Half-step Master with the body of a military general was also this kind of power?"
"That's right."
Qin Feng smiled and said, "So now, you should wholeheartedly recognize me as your Master, instead of always being so stern, right?"
"..."
Ai Yeqing was shocked inside.
A few days ago, when Qin Feng said he had used a strand of Immortal Energy to heal her, she had not believed him.
Now she felt the true power.
How valuable could that strand of Immortal Energy be to grant her such power?
Probably worth more than any number of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, and yet he had simply given it to her!
"Don't zone out, let's go!"
Qin Feng waved his hand casually and continued forward.
He actually brought Ai Yeqing out this time to let her witness his strength first-hand and truly acknowledge him as her "Master."
Otherwise, these last couple of days, he had seen her always looking like she was resigned to a sad fate of "this is it, this is my life."
He wanted her to understand.
In front of him, a Grandmaster was nothing but chaff!
Soon.
After snapping out of her reverie, Ai Yeqing quickly caught up with Qin Feng.
Indeed.
Her gaze towards Qin Feng no longer held resentment, but was tinged with mystery.
"Should we keep walking? The fight is over, we could hail a cab," Ai Yeqing suggested.
"I reckon killing those two wasn't enough," Qin Feng said.
"Why?"
"It's simple! Besides offending Xu Kun and Young Master Liang, I've also crossed Wang Shanming," Qin Feng spread his hands and continued, "If the young miss from the Tang Family is petty, count her in too. For now, only two have shown up."
"..."
Ai Yeqing was at a loss for words.
He had managed to offend all Four Great Families of Yanjing!
"I advise you to leave Yanjing as soon as possible," she said with a furrowed brow, "The Four Major Families' influence isn't just limited to having a Grandmaster as protection; they all have their own backing, especially the Wang Family."
"So what?"
Qin Feng shrugged indifferently, "In my eyes, they're just trivialities."
As they talked,
suddenly a burst of laughter rang out in the night sky: "Hahaha..."
The sound was like thunder!
It made Ai Yeqing instinctively cover her ears.
"See, I told you there should be more people."
Qin Feng spoke.
At that moment.
The thunderous laughter stopped.
A few dozen meters in front of them stood two persons.
One was Wang Shanming!
"The Wang Family has come to settle the score with you as well."
Ai Yeqing said with knitted brows.
Looking at the man beside him, it was a fat monk with large ears, his belly round like a giant leather ball, his body covered in flabby skin.
"I have never heard such arrogant words before, you're the first,"
the monk said with a laugh. So&u&rc.e&d# dire-c!t-l!y@ f*r#om- *.@
"Oh no!"
Ai Yeqing's face changed with shock as she recognized the fat monk's features, "Is that Tan Xiao Monk?!"
"Humph!!"
Wang Shanming now spoke to Qin Feng with a cold voice, "Qin Feng, you're a dead man!"
"Tsk tsk, you're such an embarrassment, clearly having lost a bet to me, you should've become my servant, yet you snuck away. What a disgrace to the Wang Family," Qin Feng said with disdain.
"In war, deception is par for the course, victorious kings and defeated invaders! You're certainly doomed this time. Cang Lang failed to kill you, but Master Tan Xiao is different; he can crush you to bits! Let's see how smug you'll be then!" Wang Shanming sneered.
"Oh, dressing up shamelessness as standard war tactics, where's your shame?"
Qin Feng responded scornfully.
Ai Yeqing besides him tugged at him urgently, whispering, "We should find a chance to retreat. It's Tan Xiao Monk we're up against; we can't afford to offend him. Tan Xiao Monk is too powerful; he once slaughtered over a thousand people on Black Cloud Mountain all by himself and was then expelled from Yun Kong Temple. Who would've thought he would work for the Wang Family."
"Don't worry."
Qin Feng said with an unruffled smile.
Then,
he stepped forward, striding boldly ahead.
Ai Yeqing was frustrated.
Although she acknowledged some of Qin Feng's abilities, even with a Divine Weapon like the Life and Death Blade, he was no match for Master Tan Xiao; he would be ground to dust!
"Stop right there!"
She quickly moved to stop him.
But Qin Feng continued strutting forward, not even on guard for battle, treating the opponents as nothing more than trifles.
Ai Yeqing was at a loss for words.
Wang Shanming's eyes flickered with excitement as he said to Tan Xiao Monk, "Grind him to dust, let's see how he keeps up his pretense!"
"Sure thing!"
Tan Xiao Monk stretched a wide grin.
At this time.
Qin Feng was no more than ten steps away from them, and to Tan Xiao Monk, who was about to take action, he said, "Dead monk, don't you recognize your bro?"
