Chapter 215: Gradual Deviation
“Just what kind of monster is this! Why is he completely fine!?”
Gui Sha was struck by Li Rong’s hammer until he vomited blood.
He was extremely depressed. Why did he have to offend such a monster!?
The power that Zhou Feng had just unleashed had already exceeded the norm.
This wasn’t something that an ordinary Purple Mansion cultivator could unleash.
Although Gui Sha had been careful and instructed his brother to self-detonate for him to escape once they realized that something was wrong, he had never imagined that he would be unable to escape in the end.
The most lamentable thing was that a little girl was using him as her… sparring partner to improve her skills.
“He’s not dead!”
Zhou Feng’s eyebrows twitched as he continued to speak to Li Rong.
Since Zhou Feng had received such a great favor from Li Rong, he had the responsibility to train her well.
‘Doesn’t she know how to land a fatal strike? It’s hard to imagine how she has managed to survive until now.’
Li Rong gnashed her teeth and continued swinging the small jade hammer in her hand.
This small jade hammer was a top-grade spiritual artifact with countless suppression runes engraved on it.
Don’t look at how small it was. Once activated, it was comparable to a small mountain falling from the sky.
Li Rong had the assistance of such a spiritual artifact, and yet, she was unable to kill a defenseless person with a single blow…
Gui Sha felt that half of his body was gone, but he wasn’t dead yet.
Truth be told, it was not easy to kill Purple Mansion cultivators. As long as the opponent didn’t hit a vital point, the chances of dying on the spot were very low.
As such, Li Rong continued delivering blows to Gui Sha’s body with her small jade hammer.
“Watch me!”
Zhou Feng could no longer stand it. He looked at Gui Sha, who was on the verge of death, not planning to give him another chance.
He took action, completely relying on his own physical strength, and kicked Gui Sha’s head.
Then, a stream of blood spurted out like a fountain, splashing all over Zhou Feng and Li Rong’s bodies.
Gui Sha’s head flew into the sky and turned into a black shadow. No one knew where it went.
This cruel and bloody scene made Li Rong extremely uncomfortable. She even felt a little nauseous.
“It’s alright, just get used to it. Remember to be cautious after killing the enemy!”
Zhou Feng did not pay too much attention to Li Rong when he saw her like this. She could slowly adapt to these kinds of scenes. He would teach Li Rong everything based on his own experiences along the way.
After saying that, Zhou Feng used the Purple Jade Bell to gently press on Gui Sha’s corpse.
Immediately, the corpse turned into meat paste.
“Ah!”
Originally, Zhou Feng wanted to demonstrate the universal corpse-dealing practices, engraving them deep in Li Rong’s mind.
However, he did not expect a black shadow to jump out of the meat paste and let out an ear-piercing screech.
“He has yet to die?”
The Blood Qi in Zhou Feng’s body rippled like a wave and incinerated the black shadow.
The sudden development scared Li Rong silly once again.
‘How could this person still be alive!?!?’
Who were the Demonic Ghost Brothers?
The two of them had merged, and they were the gold-star assassins of the Yama Palace. They had accepted countless missions and had never failed to eliminate their target. Even when enemies came knocking on their door, they would always be able to escape easily.
However, these two brothers would never have thought that this would be their final resting place.
The Demonic Ghost Brothers’ souls were entangled together, so they were more powerful than your ordinary soul. Even without the protection of their physical bodies, their souls could still survive for a short period.
If they could find a suitable physical body during that short period, the two of them could continue living.
Unfortunately, everything was over now.
Zhou Feng had stumbled upon their final trump card just like that and annihilated them in body and soul.
Ever since the Demonic Ghost Brothers’ debut, they had never been so sullen.
Before they had the time to use any tricks, Zhou Feng had used his strength to defeat them. It was really too tragic.
“Do you understand now? You have to confirm that your enemy is dead. Cut the head, loot the corpse, and destroy the corpse!”
After this small episode, Zhou Feng began to lecture Li Rong.
Killing the enemy and looting the corpse was a necessary process.
Regarding this, he naturally taught Li Rong everything.
“Don’t say that you don’t lack resources! Cultivation resources are something that you will always lack.
“Moreover, if you want to be free and unfettered, then you can only rely on yourself for everything. Once you rely on others, it’ll be impossible for you to be free!”
Zhou Feng stopped Li Rong who wanted to speak.
In the end, Li Rong shut her mouth, forced what she wanted to say back to her stomach pit, and listened to his teachings. She longed for freedom and did not want to be restricted by her clan.
“After looting and destroying the corpse, you must quickly leave this place! Hide yourself!”
After plundering Gui Sha’s storage ring, Zhou Feng grabbed Li Rong and left this place.
Li Rong’s discomfort from before had lessened by a lot.
At the same time, she also began to try her best to adapt to what Zhou Feng had said.
“Also, when you encounter an enemy, try not to speak as much as possible. All you need to do is focus on killing the enemy!”
Zhou Feng continued teaching Li Rong how to deal with certain situations along the way while searching for demonic beasts in the surroundings with his sharp senses.
Finally, he found a location with Soul Altar demonic beasts and headed there to temper Li Rong. As long as she killed more, she would eventually get used to it.
The Li Clan was in the dark that Zhou Feng was training their noble daughter in an extreme and dangerous direction.
The gentle, virtuous, and pure noble daughter of the Li Clan was gradually disappearing, and a direct and violent demoness was emerging in her place.
Li Rong felt that something was not right as she listened to Zhou Feng. “Isn’t this extreme? Shouldn’t we try to communicate? Isn’t attacking directly…”
Zhou Feng thought about it and said it in a more tactful manner, “There’s no need. Before attacking, you have already given the other party a chance.
“However, you have to be careful when attacking. As long as it does not have to do with your safety, don’t attack recklessly.”
“I see…”
The more they communicated, the more Li Rong realized that Zhou Feng was different.
That sort of mentality was different from everyone she had ever met.
And it was precisely because of this difference that Li Rong was firmly attracted to him.
…
While Zhou Feng was leading away (and astray) Li Rong, a few Purple Mansion cultivators were heading in Zhou Feng’s direction.
“Are you sure? Is the Heavenly Star there?”
“I’m sure! We didn’t find it in the other locations. There are only two places left!”
“Finding the Heavenly Star isn’t the key! The key is how to guard the Heavenly Star!”
Bai Wuyi touched the falcon on his shoulder, his tone somewhat solemn.
This time, the winner of the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm had to be him.
There was an important item in the City Lord’s treasury. If he obtained that item, breaking through to the Divine Ability realm would be a piece of cake for him.
However, several teams had entered the mystic realm this time, and they all posed a great threat to his plans.
The most important thing now was to get his hands on the Heavenly Star as soon as possible.
This would make it easier for him to put in motion his plans..
