"What’s happening today?"

Liu Xianzi sat inside the city, sipping tea with a sowhat puzzled expression.

Especially the Divine Thunder descending from the sky in the distance, even when viewed from within the city looking outward, it was conspicuously visible. However, Dongliang City had already imposed a curfew, not allowing the common people to go out at will, as immortals’ battles bring calamity to mortals.

Heavenly fire descends, Five Thunders strike the head.

Ever since Jiang Feng had co back alive from Shuipang County, his style of combat had undergone significant changes, as fierce as raging fire, as swift as thunder, the magnificent heavenly might he summoned even left Liu Tangxi a bit dumbfounded.

When did this kid co up with these moves?

"Not bad in terms of power; this young fella is quite clever."

"Thunder Sword united as one; this approach is indeed identical to that of the ancient Sword Immortal. With his intelligence, integrating Five Star Taoism into his Sword Qi in the future is not impossible."

"However, my junior brother is usually quite good-natured, so why is he as explosive as gunpowder today, playing for keeps right from the get-go?"

He wasn’t like this before; previously, Jiang Feng always tested the waters slowly, like boiling a frog in warm water, rarely ever going all-in from the start. What’s gotten into him?

Did he suddenly lose his temper?

Could it be that soone slapped him on the way here?

Confused.

Of course, Liu Tangxi set out on this journey with Jiang Feng, always taking the lead in scouting ahead. After all, within the small boundaries of Country Liang, there now lurked hidden dragons and crouching tigers; there’s no telling when they might encounter so old monster. If she didn’t co along, it’s very likely these old codgers would stoop to any asure, regardless of face.

Never overestimate the moral standards of the elderly, Liu Tangxi deeply believed in this. As they reach their age, it’s hard to restrain them with morality. For these old tirs, legacy is everything.

By that age, most would have retired from prominence, entrusting all they have to disciples or offspring. They might care about their reputation, worry about tarnishing their legacy, but that depends on what is placed on the scale of consideration.

If morality is weighed against the lineage and offspring, do you think they’ll play fair with you?

Her biggest worry was that this kid, in his lack of restraint, would either kill soone outright or be killed if the opponent did not hold back.

The lower the cultivation, the easier it is to encounter problems during a confrontation, life and death hanging by a thread. For soone at the realm of Liu Tangxi, an instant kill is almost impossible unless the disparity in strength is too great. But it’s different below the Nascent Soul.

A little carelessness, and...

"Joyful Ring, appear!"

"Pearl of the Celestial Lake, rise!"

Accompanied by the thunder, lightning tore through the sky; iron wire beca the perfect conductor in hand, grabbing the Heavenly Descent Divine Thunder and slashing toward the beautiful girl in front of him with the sword!

Zi-la—

The shadow stalled in place instantly dissipated.

Holding the electric light in his hand, Thunder Technique had always been Jiang Feng’s most commonly used spell, and since Daoism revered thunder, both its imnse destructive power and its awe-inspiring righteousness were favored by the disciples of Purple Cloud Palace.

"Scarlet Sun Infinite Heavenly Thunder Art, invoke!"

"Thunder Dragon erges!"

From his throat ca a low shout.

Lightning concealed his figure; a purple dragon coiled around him.

The most terrifying, or rather, the greatest advantage of the human race compared with other species, is their adaptability and potential for growth.

The battle with Jin Shan almost wiped them out and nearly crippled Jiang Feng, but all growth and advancent were built upon desperate struggles.

He was indeed close to death, but from it, he gained many insights. Back on Swordmaster Peak, even though he was bedridden and silent, his mind was full of thoughts about how to grow stronger.

That’s when three things ca to his mind.

Thunder Technique, Sword Qi, and... flesh and blood.

The Purple Lightning Dragon coiled around his body, one could clearly feel the boy’s body tremble.

Expressionless, but with clenched teeth, even for Jiang Feng, it was strenuous to embody the thunder within him. The burning and piercing pain from his body caused his arms to tremble, yet he still wielded the Sword Qi and turned back resolutely.

"Evil Slayer!"

The deep voice, like thunder, blasted in the ears of the woman, who was close to grabbing Jiang Feng from behind. Her expression changed, but she stood motionless.

One sweep of iron wire cleaved the woman in two.

It was a disrupted shadow.

His body tried to adapt to the raging Thunder Power. Although he possessed a Five Elents Body, he was not like that little princess from Country Liang, who carried the Five Thunders within her; the intense stimulation tensed his entire body.

Whether it was Thunder Technique or Sword Qi, both were the main sources of Jiang Feng’s combat strength. His ability to leap across realms and pound his opponents largely rested upon these two.

The remaining three parts relied on three fifth-grade Scarlet Pills and one fifth-grade Body Tempering Pill. Just speaking of his physical body, even compared to Body Cultivation, the gap wasn’t significant; had it been any other opponent, perhaps victory would have been decided the mont the lightning struck the ground.

Alas, the woman before him was also not to be trifled with.

"What kind of spell is this? Such exquisite Thunder Control Technique, could it be a disciple of Divine Thunder Valley? No, that’s not right!"

Her body lowered, rging with the earth.

A close observation would reveal a blurry shadow moving rapidly close to the ground. The Ei Piercer flew at the ground, pinning the shadow in place, causing the young man to hesitate slightly.

Then, an eerie aura burst forth, with restless Spiritual Energy protecting the flesh, and faintly, there emitted a barely discernible demon aura. Ying Ling, who had been closing in on Jiang Feng’s back, suddenly had a change in her expression.

"Slice!"

Purple light surged, the shadow fled.

Ei Piercer flipped in her palm, and before she had a chance to turn around, a cold gust attacked from behind, aiming directly at the back of her head, scattering neatly combed long hair.
