Chapter 158: A Vicious Woman

"Fled?"

The man and the wolf looked at each other in utter astonishment.

They had expected those people to stay and put up a proper fight. After all, there were more than a dozen of them. With strength in numbers, what was there to fear?

Yet the result was that they fled without a fight.

Were they really that terrifying?

The Wolf King said smugly, "Why is your Wolf Brother so awesome? They didn't even have to wait for me to make a move to be scared out of their wits."

"It's not that you're awesome, it's that you're too shameless."

Qin Feiyang rolled his eyes hard, having never seen such a narcissistic creature.

The Wolf King said dismissively, "Wolf Brother knows you're just jealous, so Wolf Brother isn't angry at all."

"I'm jealous?"

Qin Feiyang was completely speechless and, too lazy to waste any more breath, directly sent the Wolf King into the ancient castle, then deployed his Misty Smoke Steps to give chase to the middle-aged woman and her party.

"He's chasing us!"

"So fast!"

"It's almost four times my speed!"

The faces of the dozen-odd people turned pale.

Fear and despair flooded over them like a tidal wave.

"I can't run anymore."

A young man in black collapsed onto the ground, his body trembling violently, panicked and at his wit's end.

The others paid him no mind.

This group had been temporarily assembled.

Everyone harbored their own hidden agendas.

Unity was nothing more than a joke.

When disaster strikes, everyone looks out for themselves.

The young man in black turned his head with great difficulty, looking at the approaching Qin Feiyang, and begged, "Brother, no, no, no, Your Excellency, I was forced into this! Please spare my life!"

"Alright!"

Qin Feiyang nodded.

"He's that easy to talk to?"

The young man in black was stunned, wild with joy.

However.

The next moment.

Qin Feiyang flashed past him, the blade of Cangxue glinting. The young man's head flew straight off, and blood spurted several meters high from a wound the size of a bowl!

"He's a demon!"

"He kills without blinking an eye!"

"Hurry, hurry, hurry, run!"

The middle-aged woman and the others ahead were scared out of their wits!

"Do you remember what I said earlier?"

"You'll soon find out just what kind of person you've offended!"

"I am going to make you feel absolute despair!"

Qin Feiyang's ferocity surged. Treading the Misty Smoke Steps like a shooting star, he quickly caught up, swung his blade, and severed another person's head.

"My lord, we were blind..."

"I'll be your beast of burden, I'll pour your tea and serve you..."

"Please raise your hand in mercy and spare my life!"

"I don't want to die!"

The dozen-odd people fled while pleading for mercy.

Qin Feiyang turned a deaf ear, wielding Cangxue and frantically harvesting head after head.

The remaining people had already been frightened out of their wits.

Two of them fled blindly into the jungle.

But shortly after, screams echoed out.

Clearly, they had been killed by the fierce beasts within the jungle.

Fresh blood stained the pathway!

The stench of blood was pungent!

Severed heads rolled in the mud, their eyes wide open, filled with the terror and despair of impending death!

"Little bastard, don't push people too far!"

The middle-aged woman roared furiously.

Other than Wang Gang, she was the only one still alive.

"I'm pushing people too far?"

"Back then, I explicitly advised you not to provoke me, but you refused to believe it."

"And now, you can't blame me for being ruthless!"

Qin Feiyang was covered in blood, looking like a bloody fiend radiating an unmatched, ferocious aura.

Yes.

This was his most terrifying side!

He would never let anyone who dared to touch his people go unpunished.

"I'll fight you to the death!"

Seeing Qin Feiyang drawing closer and closer, the middle-aged woman suddenly spun around and struck out with a palm toward him.

True qi surged within her palm.

This was a martial skill.

Though it was only a medium-grade martial skill!

Qin Feiyang's eyes flashed with disdain as he similarly threw out a palm carrying the sound of wind and thunder, sending the middle-aged woman flying with a single strike.

Bam!

Puff!

The middle-aged woman crashed into the ground, vomiting a mouthful of blood.

In an instant.

Her face was filled with despair!

"Who on earth are you?"

She looked at Qin Feiyang in terror.

A flawless-grade killing martial skill.

A flawless-grade supporting martial skill.

And a white wolf by his side.

Furthermore, his movements were ghostly, coming and going without a trace.

How could such a monstrous person exist in this world?

"You want to know that badly?"

"Very well, I'll tell you."

"I am Qin Feiyang, the very person you've all been searching for."

Qin Feiyang said.

"What!"

The middle-aged woman's body trembled violently.

Qin Feiyang landed right in front of her in a single step. Cangxue spun, a burst of crimson light flashed, and a head dropped to the ground.

"Only the last one left!"

He grabbed Cangxue and gave chase to Wang Gang without looking back.

Behind him, a trail of mutilated corpses and severed limbs was left in his wake!

It was like an Asura hell.

Along the way, Qin Feiyang encountered many dead fierce beasts.

Most of them had been killed with a single blow, their wounds still oozing blood.

Clearly, they had been killed by Wang Gang.

This meant that even though Wang Gang's speed was faster than Qin Feiyang's, due to the fierce beasts blocking the path, it wouldn't be difficult for Qin Feiyang to catch up to him!

Occasionally, however, fierce beasts would leap out to block Qin Feiyang's path.

Qin Feiyang summoned the Wolf King, and with the cooperation of man and wolf, coupled with the indestructible Cangxue, their journey was relatively unimpeded.

Ling Yunfei and Feng Ling'er had also woken up and were recovering from their injuries inside the ancient castle.

After chasing for a little under half an hour.

They finally spotted Wang Gang on the path ahead!

However.

Wang Gang's strength had clearly grown considerably stronger.

A two-star Martial Ancestor-tier fierce beast had actually been slain by him with a single punch!

Even his severed arm had fully regenerated as good as new!

Furthermore.

Further in the distance, there was a bonfire around which a dozen or so figures could be faintly seen gathered.

"This is bad."

Man and wolf stopped in their tracks, gazing into the distance at Wang Gang and the people by the bonfire, a sense of unease welling up in their hearts.

Qin Feiyang took out the map, glanced at it carefully, and said in a deep voice, "The location of the bonfire is the first safe zone. Go to the castle first and have Feng Ling'er get ready."

Putting away the map, Qin Feiyang sent the Wolf King back into the ancient castle, then grabbed a torch and continued to pursue Wang Gang.

Meanwhile.

Wang Gang had also sensed Qin Feiyang behind him. Turning his head to look, a thick sneer crept across his face.

After running close, Qin Feiyang stopped a dozen meters away and frowned, "Did you take that supreme-grade Scarlet Fire Glaze Pill?"

"You know about it too?"

"Ah right, you're their companion, so it's no surprise you know."

"That's right, not long ago I searched their qiankun bags and actually found a medicinal pill with medicinal rings inside that woman's bag."

"Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a supreme-grade Scarlet Fire Glaze Pill."

"I had long heard rumors of the supreme-grade Scarlet Fire Glaze Pill, said to have been refined by Jiang Haotian of Yan City, capable of breaking through two minor realms at once."

"I didn't believe it at first, but after taking it, I actually broke through from a one-star Martial Ancestor to a three-star Martial Ancestor."

"What surprised me even more was that that woman's qiankun bag really did contain a Myriad Spirit Pill, and my arm has been reattached. Now it's my turn to hunt you down."

Wang Gang let out a loud laugh and charged toward Qin Feiyang without any hesitation.

"A four-star Martial Ancestor!"

Qin Feiyang's heart sank.

The thing he feared most had ultimately happened.

A four-star Martial Ancestor was no longer something he and the Wolf King could contend with.

However, just because he and the Wolf King couldn't handle it didn't mean others couldn't.

Swish!

Without a moment's hesitation, he decisively retreated into the ancient castle.

"Hah?"

Wang Gang instantly flew into a rage, roaring, "If you have the guts, come on out! Don't hide away like a coward!"

The dozen or so people at the safe zone heard the roar and stood up one after another, gazing over in shock and suspicion.

A burly man frowned and said, "That sounded like Wang Gang?"

"It is indeed Wang Gang!"

"Let's go take a look!"

"After all, we're old acquaintances, so we should help out if we can."

The dozen people immediately drew their weapons, raised their torches, and rushed toward where Wang Gang was.

Inside the ancient castle!

"I want to see who the coward really is in the end!"

Qin Feiyang smiled coldly, turned to look at Feng Ling'er, handed Cangxue to her, and said, "You heard what Wang Gang said earlier. Now it's your turn to take the stage."

A little under half an hour had passed.

Her injuries had recovered for the most part.

Hearing this.

She abruptly stood up, grasped Cangxue tightly, a murderous glint violently flashing in her eyes.

Qin Feiyang asked, "Do you need a supreme-grade Scarlet Fire Glaze Pill?"

"Unnecessary."

Feng Ling'er said coldly and proudly.

"Very well."

Qin Feiyang grabbed her, and they instantly appeared on the path.

"Prepare to die!"

The moment the two appeared, Wang Gang let out a sharp cry and lunged toward them with towering killing intent.

"You don't have what it takes!"

"Wild Elephant Fist!"

Feng Ling'er's intent to kill soared. Her seemingly delicate body met the charge without the slightest evasion. Clenching her delicate fist, she unleashed a violent punch!

"Bitch, let's see how I toy with you to death later!"

"Quicksand Palm!"

Wang Gang grinned hideously, throwing out a palm that whipped up a flurry of rain as he struck at Feng Ling'er!

Fist and palm collided!

Both of them were blasted backward at the same time, a trace of blood oozing from the corners of both their mouths.

"How is this possible?"

Wang Gang's expression shifted.

Wasn't this bitch a two-star Martial Ancestor? How could her strength be on par with his?

Right!

It must be because the Wild Elephant Fist was a flawless-grade martial skill!

His Quicksand Palm was only a superior-grade martial skill, which made up for the gap in cultivation level.

"If it weren't for the fact that I was fighting fierce beasts and heavily injured,"

"If it weren't for you ambushing me,"

"Did you really think your half-assed tricks could knock me unconscious?"

"Could steal my qiankun bag?"

"Bastard, and you even dared to take the supreme-grade Scarlet Fire Glaze Pill!"

"Today, I'm going to gouge out your eyes, chop off your hands, and feed them to wild beasts!"

Feng Ling'er was furious beyond measure, gripping Cangxue in her left hand while striking out with a palm from her right. Nine palm afterimages carrying terrifying pressure lunged at Wang Gang!

"The Martial King Palace's exclusive flawless-grade martial skill, Annihilation Palm!"

"You're actually a core disciple of the Martial King Palace!"

Wang Gang's face turned as pale as paper.

Because only core disciples were qualified to cultivate the flawless-grade martial skill, Annihilation Palm.

Other disciples could only cultivate the superior-grade martial skill, Phantom Palm.

A retreat intent grew in his heart!

He struck out with a palm, the wind of the strike fierce, but all he hit were afterimages!

Feng Ling'er seized the opportunity to strike his chest with a palm. Accompanied by a crisp crack, the bones in Wang Gang's chest shattered on the spot!

Bam!

At the same time, his body was sent flying horizontally, crashing onto the ground several meters away and leaving a deep crater in the earth!

Feng Ling'er pursued him in a single step, her whole body exuding a chilling, piercing aura!

"Puff!"

Wang Gang spat a mouthful of blood. Enduring the excruciating pain, he hurriedly crawled out of the crater and turned to flee.

But at that moment.

Feng Ling'er had already caught up, bending down to swing Cangxue, instantly slicing through the tendons of both his ankles.

Bang!

Immediately.

Wang Gang face-planted like a dog eating mud, getting a mouthful of dirt.

Simultaneously.

The dozen or so people from the safe zone also rushed over.

Upon seeing Wang Gang's condition, their expressions all changed drastically.
