CHAPTER 178: CHAPTER 178: FLEEING WITH BEAUTY IN MY ARMS
"Sword Intent!"
Chen Hei Feng looked at Cang Nanyue, his expression changing dramatically in an instant.
He never imagined the woman before him, barely in her twenties, could comprehend Sword Intent.
Cang Nanyue didn’t give him time to be surprised. Infused with Sword Intent, her aura reached its peak, and the Red Moon Sword thrust out!
In a moment, the Red Moon Sword trembled violently, and a thin red line of light, about the size of a thumb, shot out instantly.
The mere appearance of the sword’s radiance made the surrounding space tremble.
A suppressed gasp sounded in the forest.
The sharp aura contained in the sword’s radiance still made the scalps of the Demon Sect disciples tingle, even a kilometer away.
WHOOSH!
The sword light flashed, cutting through the black flame hand as if it were tofu, then continued its unabated momentum towards Chen Hei Feng.
Chen Hei Feng’s psyche recoiled from the approaching presence of death.
This Sword Qi was completely different from the last, imbued with the piercing sharpness of a sword that could penetrate anything—unstoppable! The mere thought that it was unstoppable made him lose some of his momentum.
A flash of ferocity crossed his eyes. Chen Hei Feng’s aura soared, the black flame on his palms intensified, and he roared, "Let’s see whose skill is superior, your Sword Intent or my Great Black Dark Palm! Black Dark Flame Purgatory!"
BANG!
He thrust his palms out, aiming for the sword’s radiance, but his attack disintegrated instantly.
However, having navigated the **rtiad** for decades, Chen Hei Feng’s experience was not to be underestimated. In a split second, he shifted his body just enough to narrowly avoid a fatal blow.
SPURT!
With a flash of sword light, blood gushed.
Chen Hei Feng’s Protective **Gang Qi** was instantly shattered. A fist-sized bloody hole was punched through his left shoulder, faintly revealing the white bone beneath.
Chen Hei Feng grunted, his figure retreating tens of meters, his face as grim as water.
Cang Nanyue, merged with Sword Intent, has reached the peak of Spiritual Rotation Realm Six. He is no match for her!
How could Cang Nanyue let such a prime opportunity slip? She pressed her advantage, her **Sword Shadow** following her movements, as she sought to strike again and finish Chen Hei Feng.
Chen Hei Feng’s eyes flickered. Suddenly gnashing his teeth, he laughed ferociously, "Cang Nanyue, you are indeed powerful. However, even if I die, I’ll drag someone down with me! Black Dark Flame Transformation!"
With a loud roar, Chen Hei Feng’s fierce gaze suddenly shifted to Luo Feng on the ground, and he lashed out with an aerial palm strike.
BOOM!
A house-sized black flame palm, screaming ominously, hurtled towards Luo Feng!
Luo Feng sensed danger the moment Chen Hei Feng spoke, but it was already too late.
The moment Chen Hei Feng attacked, he locked onto Luo Feng, his rampaging **Gang Qi** confining Luo Feng within a hundred-meter radius.
Even with the speed of the Teng Dragon’s Step, he couldn’t completely evade it.
He had to give it his all!
Luo Feng took a deep breath, pushing his **Yuan Qi** to its absolute limit. He stared at the roaring Black Flame Palm charging towards him, preparing to meet it head-on.
Watching from afar was already horrifying; now, directly under the palm’s wind, Luo Feng felt even more keenly the terror of an expert at the Spiritual Rotation Realm.
The palm wind hadn’t yet arrived, but the mere gust it generated was enough to make him unsteady. The overwhelming pressure, as if a mountain were crashing down on him, was irresistible.
Unbeknownst to him, Luo Feng’s palms were already slick with cold sweat.
"Despicable!"
Seeing Chen Hei Feng suddenly attack Luo Feng, Cang Nanyue bit her red lip. In the nick of time, she withdrew the Red Moon Sword and dashed in front of Luo Feng to protect him.
"Sister Nanyue!"
Luo Feng, who was preparing to meet Chen Hei Feng’s attack head-on, was shocked by Cang Nanyue’s sudden appearance.
Cang Nanyue didn’t speak, instead swinging her sword at the roaring palm force.
BOOM!
The red sword radiance flashed, and Chen Hei Feng’s palm force instantly crumbled.
At the same time, triumphant laughter suddenly erupted in the forest.
"Cang Nanyue, you’re still too naive!"
Chen Hei Feng had suddenly appeared at Cang Nanyue’s side. His right hand, wreathed in swirling black flames, was raised high before he struck viciously at Cang Nanyue.
"Despicable!"
Cang Nanyue gritted her silver teeth and countered with a backhand sword strike.
BOOM!
A powerful shockwave swept out, instantly devastating the nearby forest and tearing horrifying fissures in the ground!
Chen Hei Feng’s Protective **Gang Qi** was sliced through by the sword. His entire left arm was severed, and a ghastly sword wound appeared on his body. He staggered and was thrown back several tens of meters.
Cang Nanyue, unable to dodge in time, was also struck by Chen Hei Feng’s palm. She spat out a mouthful of blood, her beautiful face turning deathly pale. She fell to the ground, her figure swaying precariously as she supported herself with the Red Moon Sword.
"Sister Nanyue!"
Luo Feng was shocked and quickly reached out to support Cang Nanyue.
Blood oozed from Cang Nanyue’s lips, her aura diminished, her light dress dotted with blood like plum blossoms. Seeing Luo Feng, she said weakly, "Luo Feng, leave quickly! I was hit by his Black Dark Hell Palm and temporarily can’t use my **Yuan Qi**!"
Hearing this, Luo Feng’s mind reeled.
Unable to use **Yuan Qi**, her strength must be greatly reduced. Furthermore, Cang Nanyue is injured now; she might be even weaker than an ordinary martial artist at the **Refining Body Realm**!
"**Lord Hei Feng**!"
The surrounding black-clothed martial artists rushed over.
His arm severed and severely injured, Chen Hei Feng’s aura was weak as he sat on the ground. He glared angrily at Luo Feng and Cang Nanyue and roared, "Kill them for me! Especially that woman—she must not leave the Ghost Howl Mountain Range alive! She was hit by my Black Dark Hell Palm; she cannot use her **Yuan Qi** now."
With an arm lost and grievous injuries, even if he survived, his strength would be greatly diminished. He might not even keep his position as an Elder of the Demon Sect’s outer division.
This was the first time Chen Hei Feng had suffered such a devastating setback; intense hatred filled his eyes, making them shot with thick, bloodshot veins.
"Yes!"
The surrounding martial artists responded in unison, but when their gazes fell on Luo Feng, their expressions turned hesitant.
Luo Feng’s terrifying strength had left an indelible impression on them.
"Why aren’t you going?"
Chen Hei Feng casually grabbed one of the black-clothed martial artists.
"**Lord Hei Feng**, that young man’s strength is extraordinarily terrifying. He even murdered Senior Brother Zhao Tan. I am no match for him," the black-clothed martial artist stammered, his teeth chattering.
"No match for him? Then what use are you!"
SPURT!
Chen Hei Feng’s gaze turned cold. He exerted force with his fingers, snapping the man’s neck. The man spat blood and died a miserable death.
"If you fail to kill that woman, you shall all die!" Chen Hei Feng’s cold gaze and murderous aura sent shivers down their spines. His vicious tone was terrifying.
"Yes!"
Witnessing the corpse on the ground, the surrounding black-clothed martial artists turned pale and dared not hesitate. They activated their Light Martial Arts and charged at Luo Feng and Cang Nanyue.
"Let’s join forces and kill that young man first!"
"Alright!"
Upon hearing the voices, Luo Feng’s eyebrows furrowed.
"Luo Feng, you should run. I can hold them back for a bit. You have colossal potential; your future achievements will be limitless. You cannot die here. I only hope that after you succeed in your **cultivation**, you remember to avenge the Cang Family and kill Chen Hei Feng for me."
Cang Nanyue’s beautiful eyes watched the surging black-robed martial artists. She struggled to stand, her tone calm as she said,
After their time together, Cang Nanyue was certain Luo Feng was a once-in-a-century genius and didn’t want him to die here.
Upon hearing this, Luo Feng’s heart shook. He looked at Cang Nanyue’s beautiful but pale face and said, clenching his teeth, "Sister Nanyue, you saved my life. I, Luo Feng, swear I will kill Chen Hei Feng with my own hands! But today, neither of us will die here!"
As he spoke, Luo Feng gathered his **Yuan Qi**. Eight **Qi Dragons** materialized, roaring and soaring around him. He swiftly swept Cang Nanyue up by the waist and dashed toward the depths of the forest.
"They’re escaping! Chase them!"
"Kill them! If we don’t kill them, we’ll all die!"
"We cannot let them leave the Ghost Howl Forest!"
Seeing Luo Feng leaving with Cang Nanyue, dozens, even hundreds, of black-robed martial artists roared angrily and pursued them.
Ignoring the uproar behind him, Luo Feng held Cang Nanyue’s soft, delicate body and fled desperately, forcing a path through the trees.
SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!
A few of the closest martial artists closed in from the sides, blocking his path.
"Boy, let go of that woman..." a martial artist shouted deeply.
"Get lost!" Luo Feng uttered a cold snort, his eyes filled with killing intent. He took a step forward with astonishing momentum.
Thunder Rush Shock Cloud Step!
BOOM!
The ground trembled violently. A massive shockwave radiated outwards, instantly shattering trees within a radius of about ten meters.
SPURT!
The martial artist who had spoken, being at the forefront, was struck by the shockwave and sent flying, spitting blood.
"Kill him!"
The black-robed martial artists charging from both sides roared coldly. Each displayed their martial arts, releasing waves of **Qi Force**, causing sand and stones to fly, gouging terrible scars into the earth.
"You’re courting death! Dragon Roaring Nine Heavens!"
With dozens of martial artists pursuing from behind, Luo Feng couldn’t afford to delay. His eyes flashed with murderous intent. Dragon roars echoed through the forest as ten **Qi Dragons** transformed into **Glaze Gang Qi** and swept out like a hurricane.
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
The **Gang Qi** surged, vast and overwhelming, as the **Qi Force** recoiled violently!
After Luo Feng’s Teng Dragon’s Step reached the fifth level, the number of **Qi Dragons** increased to ten, further enhancing its power. In an instant, it blasted a hundred-meter clearing before him. Three or four black-robed martial artists, failing to evade in time, were sent flying, spitting blood—dead or severely injured!
Ignoring the few stunned black-robed martial artists nearby, Luo Feng seized the momentary gap, pushed his Teng Dragon’s Step to its limit, and carrying Cang Nanyue, vanished into the forest with a flash.
"Chase them quickly!"
Instantly snapping back to their senses, the surrounding martial artists roared battle cries and pursued Luo Feng from all directions.
"Luo Feng, Chen Hei Feng should be able to recover and move soon. You won’t be able to escape the Ghost Howl Forest while carrying me," Cang Nanyue said softly, now understanding Luo Feng’s intentions.
"Shut up!" Luo Feng, focused on the approaching martial artists, had no patience to argue and snapped.
Cang Nanyue was injured for his sake; how could he abandon her and commit such an ungrateful act?
"You..."
Being snapped at by her own student was a first for Cang Nanyue, and a flicker of annoyance sparked within her.
But seeing Luo Feng’s serious expression, she couldn’t bring herself to scold him back. Sensing the determination in his eyes, a strange, inexplicable feeling arose in her heart.
SWOOSH! SWOOSH!
The sounds of pursuit from behind grew relentlessly closer.
Although Teng Dragon’s Step was exquisite, carrying Cang Nanyue and being unfamiliar with the Ghost Howl Forest, Luo Feng couldn’t shake off his pursuers.
"If this continues, we’re headed for a dead end... What should I do..." Luo Feng’s eyes flickered. Suddenly, his brow furrowed—he had thought of a plan.
