"Who are you?" At this sudden scene, not only Chu Feng but even Mu Yunxun was taken aback.
Because at this moment, the man standing in front of Chu Feng was actually a young man of the same age as Mu Yunxun. He wore simple clothes, had a handsome face, and from his appearance alone, he definitely didn't look like a person in his late thirties. Rather, he seemed like a young man in his twenties.
What was even more astonishing was this man's strength. He was just like Mu Yunxun, an eighth-level martial lord, and his aura was extremely powerful, far exceeding that of people of the same level of cultivation. He even possessed an aura that was stronger than that of Mu Yunxun.
"The man before you is one of the four guards of the Dark Night Sect, who wiped out the disciples of the Moon Sect, Xuanxiao Chao!" The man smiled calmly, his expression very calm.
"Indeed, he is a disciple of the four guards." Mu Yunxun said with an expected look, then added, "Xuanxiao Chao, there is no feud between the Islands and your Dark Night Sect. And we have never met before. I hope you don't get involved in this mess."
"Because this boy has ruined the son of the two immortals of the Islands. He is extremely sinful and has a bold heart. You protecting him won't end well." Mu Yunxun said this with great confidence, with a stronger sense of threat. He wasn't polite at all, showing that he didn't like Xuanxiao Chao.
Regarding Mu Yunxun's words, Xuanxiao Chao didn't reply. Instead, he cupped his palm, and a strange fruit appeared in his hand. Then, with one hand, he chanted a hand seal, and in the midst of his thoughts, countless golden symbols emerged from his palm, and the fruit was gradually being refined, enveloping Chu Feng together with the symbols.
When those symbols and the refined fruit were integrated into his body, Chu Feng felt a warmth in his body, and the pain greatly reduced.
Everywhere on his body, whether the broken blood vessels and bones, or the pierced internal organs, were being repaired. Xuanxiao Chao was actually treating Chu Feng.
Although it was just a moment, Chu Feng had already regained the ability to move. It has to be said that this was very miraculous. Chu Feng not only felt that Xuanxiao Chao's boundary technique was outstanding, being a divine martialist of the golden robe realm, but also that the fruit he had just refined was very precious, a rare healing wonder.
"Why did you help me?" Chu Feng asked, because he and Xuanxiao Chao clearly didn't know each other.
"Although I came a little late and failed to save your boundary spirit, I saw the scene where you were tortured. You have a strong spirit and great potential. Don't give up on yourself. Live on, only by living can you avenge yourself." Xuanxiao Chao said calmly, then looked at Mu Yunxun and said,
"Mu Yunxun, you have committed a great sin. Today, I will act in accordance with the law of heaven!"
"Whistling" As he spoke, Xuanxiao Chao waved his large sleeves, his palm suddenly probing forward, and a layer of golden boundaries rushed out, forming a large golden net, sweeping towards the three people in the sky.
"Killing yourself" Mu Yunxun was even more furious. He released his eighth-level martial lord aura, engaging in a battle with Xuanxiao Chao in one place.
"Bang bang bang..."
The two eighth-level martial lords, their strength was extremely powerful. Their combat power had surpassed that of people of the same level of cultivation. Even ordinary ninth-level martial lords might not be their opponents. They were both true geniuses.
The two of them engaged in battle in one place, various violent martial techniques emerged one after another, and they applied them to the fullest. This space was completely disrupted by the fighting.
However, Xuanxiao Chao intended to protect Chu Feng and strive for an opportunity to escape for Chu Feng. So, even though he was fighting Mu Yunxun desperately, he also seized the opportunity to block Ya Fei and Mu Wan from approaching Chu Feng, locking the three of them in the sky, preventing them from reaching the ground.
Chu Feng dragged his injured body, picked up his broken arm, although he could re-constitute an arm through his exquisite boundary technique, but this broken arm was still part of his body. He always felt that reconnecting it would make him more complete. At this moment, Chu Feng held the severed arm aloft, looking up and gazing at the Yae, Mu Yun, and the Mu Xun who was engaged in a fierce battle with Xuan Xiao. His gaze was filled with murderous intent, and he coldly said, "One day, I will make you pay the most painful price for what you have done today."
After saying that, Chu Feng turned his gaze to Xuan Xiao. He noticed that although Xuan Xiao was strong, his appearance seemed to be on par with Mu Xun, evenly matched. However, he could faintly sense that Xuan Xiao was actually a little weaker than Mu Xun. If this continued, he would eventually lose.
So, Chu Feng murmured, "Thank you." Then, without delay, he hurriedly fled.
Chu Feng walked for a long distance. Although he concealed his aura all the way, he couldn't afford to be careless at all because he knew that Mu Xun had special means that could find his way. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been discovered by Mu Xun earlier.
Chu Feng ran for several hours until he reached the edge of the Sinister Canyon. There was a vast lake here. Chu Feng originally intended to jump into it to clean his wounds.
However, when he descended from the sky and saw himself, covered in blood and in a state of utter disarray, on the mirror-like surface of the lake, his heart was extremely uncomfortable.
At this moment, he didn't feel angry; instead, he felt heartbroken because when he no longer felt the presence of the egg, it was as if his heart was empty, a feeling that was almost the same as losing a part of his soul.
The egg, which had been by Chu Feng's side day and night, even appeared in Chu Feng's body shortly after his birth. For Chu Feng, the egg was not just a simple spirit realm, but more like a confidant who could talk about everything, and it was a part of his body.
"Plop"
Suddenly, Chu Feng floated in the air, kneeling on the lake surface, his eyes turning red, leaving streaks of tears, and his body twitching. He even uttered a choked voice for the first time.
As the saying goes, a man has tears but doesn't shed them easily because he hasn't reached the point of being deeply saddened. I think Chu Feng was at that point now.
The drops of tears slid down, mixed with a little red blood, falling into the lake water. Although it wouldn't cause much ripples, it conveyed the sorrowful and desperate mood of this fearless and tough man.
"Egg..."
Chu Feng softly called out the name of the egg. He hoped he could still hear the response from the egg. If so, that would be wonderful.
"Stop crying. The queen is not dead yet." But at this moment, to Chu Feng's surprise, he actually heard the voice of the egg.
"Is this egg-shaped thing you?" At this moment, Chu Feng was overjoyed and quickly stood up, looking around. But soon, the joyous emotion changed into deep disappointment.
Because he found that not only couldn't he find the shadow of the egg-shaped thing around him, but deep down in his heart, he still couldn't feel any connection with the egg-shaped thing. The egg-shaped thing simply didn't exist. How could it talk to him? It seems that everything was just his hallucination.
