Martial Arts Overlord-Chapter 812 - 810: Yang Family Sisters

Swoosh!

The blade flashed, the green vortex split apart, and the young woman sensed something amiss, channeling her Yuan Qi and leaping back several meters.

Having survived the ordeal, the young woman’s alluring chest heaved rapidly, heart still lingering with fear. Her gaze fell on the terrifying blade mark on the ground, and her exquisite face showed signs of shock.

It was her first time seeing such an incredible saber technique.

Whoosh!

A sudden gust of wind, and a figure appeared on the hillside.

Luo Feng glanced at the young woman and asked:

"Are you okay?"

The young woman’s gaze landed on Luo Feng, and she was slightly taken aback. The shock in her beautiful eyes intensified a bit.

The young man before her, with a delicate face still showing some youthful innocence, seemed to be only sixteen or seventeen. She hadn’t expected that the one who saved her from the Thorn Wind Wolf was so young.

"Miss!"

The middle-aged guard rushed over. Seeing the young woman safe, he calmed his nerves and was about to thank Luo Feng when his expression suddenly changed.

In his view, two Thorn Wind Wolves converged from two sides, leaping at them, demon qi surging to the heavens. Their massive bodies ripped terrifying fissures into the ground.

"Watch out!"

Just as the middle-aged guard called out a warning, the two Thorn Wind Wolves were already within three meters behind Luo Feng.

The young woman standing across from Luo Feng watched this scene, her face drained of color.

Luo Feng remained unfazed, his body slightly trembling as a circle of red Gang Qi burst from him, striking the Thorn Wind Wolves hard.

Thud!

The bodies of the two Thorn Wind Wolves trembled violently, their house-sized bodies flying backward, crashing into the hillside and creating two massive pits several meters deep, bleeding from seven orifices and utterly dead.

Gasp!

Seeing this, the middle-aged guard’s heart shivered.

To use merely the Protective Gang Energy to shock a level four top demon beast like the Thorn Wind Wolf to death—what immense strength!

However, the middle-aged guard, having lived for most of his life and possessing a broad outlook, knew that there were always people more talented and skies beyond skies. This world held many peerless geniuses; at a young age, they possessed great power and couldn’t be judged by age.

Just like their Mixed City’s lesser prince, Zhou Jian, who was a prodigy famous throughout the entire Canglang Dynasty. At under eighteen years old, he was already a Martial Artist at the seventh level of the Spiritual Rotation Realm, ranking thirty-six on the new dragon list of the Six Southern Domains.

"Thank you, young sir, for your rescue,"

Taking a deep breath, the middle-aged martial artist cupped his fists to Luo Feng.

If his guess was correct, the young man before him should also be a new dragon list master.

Luo Feng calmly replied, "It was a small effort, no thanks are necessary."

At this moment, the sound of breaking wind was heard. Xia Yunjing and several others appeared on the hillside, immediately taking action. Streams of Qi Force wreaked havoc in the forest.

These demon beasts were just low-level, the highest only being middle-level fifth-grade beasts. Within a few breaths, nearly a hundred demon beasts were all turned into corpses by Nanxuan and the others, reddening a large area of ground with blood, the scent of which was pungent and overwhelming.

"So strong!"

"Yes, even middle-level fifth-grade beasts are no match for them. These people are younger than my nephew, yet possess such formidable power. Who exactly are they?"

"They are wearing the uniform of the Linglong Hall. If I’m not wrong, they should be Inner Sect Disciples of Linglong Hall."

"Linglong Hall disciples? But I’ve heard that only female disciples are in Linglong Hall. That young man..."

"You’re too uninformed. Don’t you know? Three months ago, during the Twelve Golden Halls assessment of the Six Southern Domains, Linglong Hall’s second Hall Master Shui Linglong personally admitted Luo Feng of the Flowing Cloud Region as a disciple of Linglong Hall."

"Ah! So he’s the Luo Feng who defeated Yi Tian! No wonder he’s so strong."

The surviving guards were all Martial Artists in the Meridian Wheel Realm. They had only heard of the Golden Palace geniuses’ might, never witnessed it. Today, seeing it firsthand left them dumbfounded.

The young woman snapped back to reality, her bright eyes scanning Luo Feng and the others, cupping her hands:

"I am Yang Lingmei. May I know your names?"

Luo Feng, not intending to hide his identity, replied, "Linglong Hall disciple, Luo Feng."

"Linglong Hall disciple, Xia Yunjing."

"Lin Xin."

"Lin Yue’er."

"Heehee, you can just call me Nanxuan."

"Xia Yunjing!"

"Luo Feng!"

Hearing this, the nearby martial artists’ expressions slightly shifted, having evidently heard of the two.

Yang Lingmei paused, looking at them with eyes filled with both admiration and respect, saying:

"I never expected to have the fortune of meeting two new dragon list masters today."

Luo Feng chuckled lightly, "She is a new dragon list master; I am not yet."

Yang Lingmei smiled gently, "There’s no need for humility, Young Master Luo. I’ve heard of your victory over the Princely Heir of Qingyun Mansion in Azure Sky City. With your strength, attaining a position on the new dragon list will be effortless in the future."

Luo Feng did not deny it.

Yang Lingmei looked at Luo Feng, bit her lips lightly, as if wanting to say something but hesitated.

Thud!

Suddenly, the middle-aged guard beside them spat out a mouthful of blood, his face pale, teetering on the edge of collapse.

"Captain Duan!"

Yang Lingmei’s expression shifted slightly as she hurriedly supported him, her brows furrowed in worry, "How did you get so badly injured?"

The middle-aged guard gave a wry smile; earlier, he faced off against two Thorn Wind Wolves and was injured. Later, he forced himself to fight again, worsening his condition, and all along he had been desperately holding on.

Luo Feng took out a first-grade Spirit Pill and handed it to him:

"Give him this Cloud Clear Pill to help relieve his injuries."

"Thank you, sir."

Yang Lingmei looked grateful as she took the pill and gave it to the guard.

After watching the guard take the pill and seeing his complexion improve, Yang Lingmei let out a sigh of relief, pursing her lips before looking up at Luo Feng and saying:

"Sir Luo Feng, I have a request, if I may. Could you escort us out of the Cloud Ridge Mountains? I have a few thousand first-grade Yuan Stones as compensation... If it’s not enough, I..."

Yang Lingmei didn’t continue; the masters on the New Dragon List can easily earn a large amount of Yuan Stones by killing a fifth-level Demon Beast. Just a few thousand first-grade Yuan Stones are hardly worth mentioning.

However, now she had no choice but to make this offer.

In this battle, nearly half of the Yang Family martial artists were dead or injured, and the only Spiritual Rotation Realm warrior, Captain Duan, was severely injured. If they were to encounter any powerful Demon Beast on the road, they might not get out of these mountains.

Luo Feng didn’t respond immediately, instead observing the crowd before asking:

"Are you people from nearby Mixed City?"

Yang Lingmei was unsure why Luo Feng asked but nodded nonetheless, "Yes."

Luo Feng smiled, "Perfect. We’re planning to stay in Mixed City for the night."

Yang Lingmei’s eyes lit up as she hurriedly said:

"If you don’t mind, you can stay at my house. We have many empty rooms."

"Thank you for your hospitality." Luo Feng nodded in agreement.

Seeing Luo Feng agree, Yang Lingmei’s heart settled, feeling a great sense of gratitude.

She had just decided that no matter the cost, she must ensure Luo Feng and his group protected the family warriors safely out of the Cloud Ridge. Yet, she hadn’t expected Luo Feng to be so accommodating, without any pretense of being a New Dragon List expert.

Nanxuan whispered to Lin Yue’er, "Senior Brother Luo Feng clearly wants to help them, why not agree straight away?"

Lin Yue’er smiled and tapped Nanxuan’s forehead lightly, "Senior Brother Luo Feng didn’t want to make them feel embarrassed."

"Oh."

Nanxuan nodded, somewhat understanding.

Once the middle-aged guard had somewhat recovered, Luo Feng said, "Let’s go."

Yang Lingmei glanced at the beast materials on the slope and said to Luo Feng:

"Sir Luo Feng, these beast materials..."

"If you need them, take them."

These were just low-level Demon Beasts, the most valuable being only a mid-grade fifth-level beast. Collecting them would merely take up space in the storage ring and had little value, so Luo Feng had no intention of keeping them.

Upon hearing this, Yang Lingmei displayed a joyous expression and quickly instructed the other Yang Family warriors:

"Hurry, collect all these beast materials!"

Her voice trembled slightly with excitement.

The materials from the two level-four Thorn Wind Wolves were equivalent to the family’s annual fortune. Now, there were nearly a hundred beast corpses, including a mid-grade fifth-level beast. To her, this was already an incredible fortune.

"Yes!"

Upon receiving Yang Lingmei’s order, all the nearby Yang Family warriors charged towards the beast corpses, eagerness in their eyes. Even those lightly injured rose to help.

They had never seen so many beast corpses in their lives; it was like fortune falling from the sky!

Luo Feng watched the busy crowd, a slight smile on his lips, reminiscent of his days at the Purple Sun School.

If he had encountered so many beast corpses back then, he too might have felt such wild joy.

However, things are different now.

His wealth, coupled with the Yuan Stones won from Duan Lin, amounted to nearly ten thousand second-grade Yuan Stones—a figure he never dared dream of back then.

The warriors were experienced, quickly gathering the valuable beast materials. Then, the group set off towards Mixed City.

Along the way, Luo Feng learned the reason behind Yang Lingmei’s venture into the Cloud Ridge Mountains.

Yang Lingmei was the young lady of the Yang Family in Mixed City, with two younger sisters at home.

Though Yang Lingmei’s talent was average, not yet reaching the seventh level of the Meridian Wheel Realm at nearly twenty years old, her two sisters exhibited outstanding talent from a young age and were now training at a martial arts school in Mixed City.

The Yang Family was merely a small family in Mixed City, with limited resources for training. Yang Lingmei didn’t want to waste her sisters’ talent, so she often led people into the Cloud Ridge Mountains to hunt Demon Beasts, exchanging them for Spiritual Medicine and Martial Arts techniques.

With Captain Duan as a Spiritual Rotation Realm warrior, hunting beasts before rarely posed danger, but now they faced an unexpected frenzy of beasts, nearly suffering complete annihilation.

Luo Feng knew the frenzy was caused by the Blood Jade Demon Bat from the Sky Sword Pavilion but said nothing.

Heading south for forty to fifty miles, the group left the Cloud Ridge Mountains, and an hour later, as night fell completely, a small city nestled among the canyon trees came into view for Luo Feng and the others.

The city wasn’t large, even smaller than Panlong City, which was unsurprising. The area near the Cloud Ridge Mountains wasn’t rich in resources, and the dangerous terrain deterred larger forces from developing here.

Upon entering the city, Luo Feng noticed the guards had a slightly panicked look.

Without overthinking it, Luo Feng and his group followed Yang Lingmei into Mixed City.
