The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 776 - 772: Amazing Talent

Before leaving the cave dwelling of Bing Wuyan, Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining released about twenty men from the cell and administered an antidote to them. Ye Chenfeng bore no grudges against these men, and since they had also been captured by Bing Wuyan, he didn’t kill them to silence them. After all, after today, they might never see each other again in their lifetimes.

After leaving Bing Wuyan’s cave dwelling, Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining discovered a dense forest not far away. Since Ye Chenfeng needed to practice the Storm Step Technique, the two of them entered the forest, ready to stay there for a while.

Standing at the entrance of Bing Wuyan’s cave dwelling, the group of about twenty men and three maids watched Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining entering the nearby forest. Having taken the antidote, their strength was slowly recovering.

Among them, a man named Wu Qihai suddenly spoke, "Do you remember when we were in the cell, the young man who just left mentioned the words ’treasure location’? Don’t you have any thoughts about that?"

Prompted by Wu Qihai, all of them remembered the words Ye Chenfeng had spoken to comfort Xia Zining in the cell: "I promised to accompany you to your sect’s treasure location, and I will definitely fulfil my promise."

At that time, under such circumstances, Ye Chenfeng was merely consoling Xia Zining, never anticipating that his words would be etched in the minds of those with ulterior motives.

"Wu Qihai, are you thinking of taking advantage of them? They just saved us," a thin man spoke up. These men had become very familiar with one another while in the cell and could call each other by name.

Wu Qihai scoffed indifferently, "The young man who just left also said he happened to have a poison-immune antidote. It was after taking the antidote that his strength wasn’t drained, and he took advantage of the exercise with Bing Wuyan to launch a surprise attack and kill her."

"As I see it, that young man’s strength can’t be too high. We all thought we couldn’t leave this place alive, but now we have and there’s an opportunity to soar to the skies before us. What if the treasure they spoke of could rid us of worries for life? What if it could greatly enhance our strength? Don’t you feel the slightest bit tempted?"

"As the saying goes, men die for wealth, as birds die for food. If anyone is to be blamed, it’s them for holding secrets they shouldn’t have."

Without any scruples, Wu Qihai spoke eloquently, displaying a complete forgetfulness of the benefits received and a small-mindedness.

After all, Ye Chenfeng had only given them a casual explanation earlier, and his strength had been intentionally concealed the whole time. These people had no idea that Ye Chenfeng now possessed strength comparable to an initial stage Sky-Breaking expert.

One of the three maids spoke up, "I agree with Wu Qihai. Although we don’t know that young man’s strength, that woman’s strength was only at the Profound Rank, so I guess that young man is at most only Heaven Rank!"

Originally, these three maids were young ladies from a wealthy household. After being captured by Bing Wuyan and brought to this place, they had been enjoyed by many men and their psychology had already twisted. They didn’t think about immediately returning home now that they were free, because they knew even if they did return, they would be ridiculed and scorned every day.

After Wu Qihai and one of the maids spoke up, the rest of the group began to waver; after all, faced with the allure of an unknown treasure, who could resist such a temptation? Moreover, whether it was the twenty-odd men or the three maids, their mentality had significantly changed from what it was before, having been captured by Bing Wuyan.

Seeing the others becoming tempted, Wu Qihai spoke again, "There are twenty-five of us here, fifteen at High Grade Heaven Rank, five at Middle Grade Heaven Rank, and five at High Grade Earth Rank."

"With this strength, even facing an expert of the Innate Realm, we would stand a fighting chance. The young man who just left, he killed Bing Wuyan through a surprise attack; I don’t believe he has the strength of the Innate Realm."

"Now if anyone disagrees, they can leave right now."

Wu Qihai’s gaze swept over the others, gauging their opinions. Of course, he ignored the three maids; his focus was on the other twenty-four men, as the maids were only of Yellow Rank strength.

"Since this opportunity has presented itself, how can we not seize it?" a man named Hu Dongnan also spoke up.

"I agree with Wu Qihai’s opinion as well," another man named Zhang Shifeng quickly followed.

Among these twenty-five men, only Wu Qihai, Hu Dongnan, and Zhang Shifeng had participated the least in the "exercises" with Bing Wuyan, and all three of them possessed Heaven Rank High Grade strength. Their bodies should recover the fastest.

With the three strongest men in agreement, the rest had no reason to object. As for the three maids with only Yellow Rank strength, Wu Qihai had also agreed to let them join, on the condition that they become their female slaves. Since these men had already enjoyed the bodies of these three maids before, there was nothing for them to resist in their hearts, and they readily agreed.

"Let’s not leave here just yet. Let’s wait until we’ve recovered for two days, and then we can rush into the forest and kill that young man. As for that woman, we can cultivate her into our fourth female slave," Wu Qihai said with a smile.

Ye Chenfeng, no matter what, could not have imagined that these people’s psychology had twisted to such an extent. If he had known this would happen, Ye Chenfeng would have surely dealt with these men directly. However, Wu Qihai and the others’ actions were like digging their own graves. By going to trouble Ye Chenfeng, they were only heading down a dead-end path.

...

Two days flew by in the blink of an eye.

In the forest not far from Bing Wuyan’s cave dwelling.

The thick tree trunks suspended in mid-air continuously smashed toward Ye Chenfeng at high speed, while Chenfeng’s footwork was extremely peculiar. Each time Chenfeng moved, gusts of wind seemed to form around him, as he deftly dodged the tree trunks.

As the flying tree trunks became denser and faster, Chenfeng’s footwork also sped up, until finally, only after-images were left in the air.

Xia Zining, sitting to the side, had gone from initial shock to numbness, and now was completely accustomed to it.

In just two short days, Xia Zining had personally witnessed Ye Chenfeng’s astonishing talent. How many days had Chenfeng been in contact with the Storm Step Technique? Yet, he was already able to execute it proficiently. Although he hadn’t completely mastered the technique, it was already incredibly unbelievable.

At first, Xia Zining thought the Storm Step Technique was very simple, which explained why Chenfeng could practice it so quickly. However, after she asked Chenfeng for the secret manual of the technique, she realized it was not simple at all and was actually very difficult to practice. In her eyes, Chenfeng’s astonishing talent was beyond human capability. So these past few days, as she watched Chenfeng practice the Storm Step Technique more and more skillfully, she would mutter to herself, "Monster, monster, he’s simply not human."

Exhaling softly from his throat, Chenfeng had completed his training for the day, having become even more proficient with the Storm Step Technique. He walked over to Xia Zining and said, "Xia Zining, we can almost leave this place now. It’s about time to test the power of the Storm Step Technique outside."

In fact, two days earlier, when Wu Qihai and the others were thinking of dealing with Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining, Chenfeng had already sensed their ill intentions. Wu Qihai and his group, fearing that Chenfeng and Zining would slip away, had arranged for people to secretly watch at the edge of the forest every day. Such petty actions were easily detectable for Chenfeng, who possessed King Level Soul Force.

Chenfeng didn’t immediately go out to kill Wu Qihai and his men because he was waiting for this day. He wanted to wait until he could use the Storm Step Technique proficiently before testing its effects on them.

So while Wu Qihai and his group were targeting Ye Chenfeng, little did they know that Chenfeng was using them as experimental guinea pigs. Both parties harbored their own intentions.
