Martial Arts Overlord
Chapter 998 - 995: Overbearing
Seeing the Wang Family martial artists fallen to the ground, everyone present widened their eyes, their gaze all directed towards the same direction.
In the distant sky, golden sunlight poured through the gaps in the clouds, precisely illuminating the center of the plaza, magnificently radiant.
There stood a slender, upright figure clad in blue clothes, with bright eyes and a sharp gaze, invisibly exerting a sense of mental pressure as if it were not mere sight, but rather the light of a sword.
"Who is this young man?"
"Tsk tsk, these are the elite among the Wang Family guards, at least with cultivation at the Meridian Wheel Realm seventh layer, yet they fell so easily before him? Could this young man be a martial artist at the Spiritual Rotation Realm."
"Hmm, could he be..."
People nearby discussed ceaselessly, shocked by the unexpected scene, some speculating about the newcomer’s identity, their faces immediately showing an incredulous expression.
Wang Molin, the head of the Wang Family, glanced at the Wang Family martial artists lying on the ground, his face darkened as he gazed at the newcomer:
"Who are you? How dare you kill people from the Wang Family!"
Bang! Bang!
The young man casually tossed two unknown-status Wang Family martial artists to the ground, his expression indifferent: "Panlong City, Luo Feng."
The words, plain and sharp, penetrated the noise, spreading throughout the entire plaza.
Purple Cloud Plaza suddenly fell silent, then erupted in a wave of intense noise.
"Panlong City Luo Feng! He’s Luo Feng, the second son of the Luo Family!"
"He achieved fourth place in the personal battle rankings at this hunting competition, even surpassing most of the ten new dragons, and now stands alongside Lu Xiao Yun, one of the ten new dragons, as the two major talents of the Flowing Cloud Region. Unexpected to witness today."
"His eyes have a sharpness, indeed not ordinary."
"Strange, at this time, Luo Feng should be cultivating in Linglong Hall, why did he suddenly return?"
"Luo Ying is Luo Feng’s cousin, the Wang Family wants to execute Luo Ying publicly, Luo Feng will likely not remain indifferent. There’s going to be something interesting to watch now..."
In the plaza, countless gazes, each with different emotions, looked at Luo Feng.
From an unknown student of Purple Sun School, in just one year, he grew into a renowned expert listed on the new dragon rankings, many view Luo Feng as a legend. It’s impossible to not be curious, though many are skeptical of this achievement.
At this moment, witnessing this legendary genius personally, many felt a chill in their hearts. Easily defeating so many Wang Family experts and still maintaining calm and composure in front of the Wang Family head, such performance isn’t something any sixteen-year-old can do.
"Luo Feng!"
Wang Molin seemed as if someone stepped on his tail, his face stiffened, he never anticipated Luo Feng would return to the Flowing Cloud Region at this moment!
Boom boom boom boom boom...
At this time, the ground suddenly started to tremble, the crowd turned their heads to look.
At the end of the street, a group of guards surged out, aggressively gathering over here, at least a hundred, striking Wang Family martial artists attempting to block them into vomiting blood without even approaching.
"The Luo Family people are coming!"
"That’s Madam Shen Qing of the Luo Family’s branch and the Luo Family head Luotian!"
A wave of exclamations arose in the plaza, over a hundred fierce Luo Family martial artists, like a wolf and tiger division, causing the crowd in the plaza to automatically split to both sides.
These guards’ armor was bright, their breath heavy, all elites of the Luo Family’s branch, and the two at the forefront were Luotian and Luo Feng’s aunt Shen Qing.
The troops surged into the crowd like tide, forming a formation behind Luo Feng, their momentum soaring.
This scene made the Wang Family high-ranking members secretly frown, and Gu Yushan, the City Lord of Black Cloud City, glanced between Luo Feng and Luotian, finally fixing his gaze on Luotian, his face ashen.
Wang Molin’s eyes narrowed slightly, he waved his hand.
Immediately, heavy footsteps like thunder resounded, squads of Wang Family martial artists emerged from the crowd, standing in opposition to the Luo Family people.
To prevent the Luo Family people from causing trouble, Wang Molin had long been prepared, just he didn’t expect Luotian could arrive at Black Cloud City safely, even more unexpected was Luo Feng returning from Linglong Hall.
"Ying’er!"
Seeing Luo Ying, covered in blood within the iron cage, Shen Qing’s face suddenly changed.
Hiss...
Luo Ying seemed to hear Shen Qing’s shout, her blood-red eyes looked over, her body struggled a bit, just it moved her wounds, immediately trembling all over, the blood in her eyes even more intense.
"Ying’er, mother is here to save you!"
Seeing Luo Ying’s miserable state, Shen Qing gritted her teeth, drew her sword, and her figure darted towards the iron cage.
"Stop her!"
Wang Molin’s face darkened, Luo Ying injured his son, and also killed several Wang Family experts, if she was rescued just like that, as the Wang Family head, where would he have any face?
Boom boom boom...
As soon as his words fell, immediately a large group of Wang Family martial artists surrounded the iron cage impenetrably, blocking Shen Qing’s path.
"Get out!"
A deep shout suddenly exploded in the plaza’s air, Luo Feng’s figure flashed, appearing in front of Shen Qing, throwing out a punch.
Bang bang bang bang...
The air exploded, the protective Gang Qi on the Wang Family martial artists shattered, and their armor disintegrated in an instant. With one punch, nearly twenty Wang Family martial artists spewed blood and were sent flying, creating a bloodied path.
A gasp echoed through the square as they witnessed this scene.
Wang Molin’s face stiffened slightly, a chill rising in his heart as he looked at Luo Feng.
He hadn’t even clearly seen how Luo Feng had made his move just now. The opponent’s strength was even more frightening than rumored.
Having witnessed Luo Feng’s terrifying power, the other Wang Family martial artists dared not take a step forward, allowing Luo Feng and Shen Qing to reach the iron cage smoothly.
"Ying’er!"
As Shen Qing approached the iron cage, suddenly, Luo Ying’s eyes flared with blood-red light, letting out a fierce howl. Her body pounced, and her blood-red claws, swift as lightning, lunged at Shen Qing.
Luo Feng, quick as a flash, pulled Shen Qing back.
Clang!
The blood claws collided with the iron cage, sparking a shower of sparks, and the air outside silently parted. Where Shen Qing had stood, several half-foot-deep claw marks appeared.
"Ying’er, what’s wrong with you! It’s mother!" Shen Qing said, tears welling up in her eyes.
Luo Feng glanced at Luo Ying, his brow slightly furrowed.
Luo Ying’s aura was extremely unusual, as if an ancient beast lay dormant inside her, very frightening.
At this moment, Luo Ying seemed to hear Shen Qing’s voice, her blood-red gaze dimmed a bit, and looking at Shen Qing, tears welled up in her eyes as she hoarsely said, "Mother..."
The voice was very weak, almost inaudible, but Luo Feng heard it clearly and couldn’t help but feel relieved.
He had really worried that Luo Ying was possessed by a demon beast, her spirit devoured. If that were the case, it would be nearly impossible for her to recover. Now, it seemed she still retained her sanity, and it wasn’t as simple as being demon-possessed.
"Ying’er, Mother will save you." Shen Qing slashed at the iron cage with a sword.
Clang!
A crisp sound rang out as sparks flew, leaving only a shallow slash mark on the dark iron cage.
"Aunt, doing this might harm Sister Luo Ying."
Luo Feng stopped Shen Qing.
Shen Qing pressed her red lips tightly, her eyes filled with hatred as she looked at Wang Molin, saying, "Feng Er, this is the Wang Family’s head, Wang Molin. He must have the key on him. Your uncle was also seriously injured by him."
Wang Molin glanced at Gu Yushan, who sat on the other side, and said indifferently:
"Shen Qing, you should have seen that Luo Ying is possessed by a demon beast. She’s now just a bloodthirsty monster. Executing her publicly would be a service to society and a release for her."
Shen Qing gritted her teeth, clutching the longsword tightly: "Ying’er is not a monster, and no one is going to touch her!"
Luo Feng’s gaze turned to Wang Molin, eyes filled with killing intent, speaking coldly:
"Wang Family head, I’ll give you one chance. Release my cousin, and bring out the ones who injured my uncle Luo Zhan and Luo Ying, and I might be lenient and spare the innocent in the Wang Family. Otherwise, the consequences won’t be so simple."
"What!"
Hearing Luo Feng’s words, everyone from the Wang Family, including Wang Molin, had their expressions changed, and the entire Purple Cloud Square was in an uproar.
In the battle with Luo Zhan, almost all the Wang Family high-ups present had been involved, and Luo Ying was also injured by Wang Molin. If they followed Luo Feng’s demand, everyone here wouldn’t escape responsibility, and from Luo Feng’s tone, falling into his hands would likely mean certain death!
Wang Molin’s face turned gloomy as he looked at Luotian beside him and said: "Luotian, is this your intent?"
Luotian said indifferently: "Feng Er’s decision is my decision."
"Hmph, kid, I know you’re strong, but our Wang Family will not be slaughtered at will!"
A hot-tempered Wang Family high-up sprang up, glaring at Luo Feng, and snorted: "I’m not afraid to tell you, I had a hand in injuring Luo Zhan as well! I want to see what you can do to kill me!"
"Oh?"
A cold gleam flashed in Luo Feng’s eyes, and he made a casual gesture.
Whoosh!
Immediately, a scary suction emerged over the entire square, forming a funnel in the air in front of Luo Feng, enveloping the Wang Family high-up.
Instantly, the high-up’s feet left the ground, uncontrollably being sucked towards Luo Feng.
"Thousand Pounds Drop!"
The Wang Family high-up’s face changed drastically, eyes wide open in anger. A surging aura sprang forth from his body, seemingly swelling his body by a circle, his feet rooted into the ground, resisting the overpowering suction force, with a grin showing a hint of disdain.
Luo Feng sneered, flexing his fingers. The suction intensified, several times more terrifying than before, cracking the rocky ground.
"Ah!"
The high-up’s face changed drastically, his body swept by the airflow, flying towards Luo Feng.
Bam!
Luo Feng pushed forward with his palm, compressing the air into crystal, upon which the Wang Family high-up collided. The sound of cracking echoed from within his body, and he collapsed to the ground like a pile of mush, his aura extinguished.
