With the repairs of the Shadow Covenant sect completed, Su Yan decided to declare a three-day celebration, causing Lin Feng and Lu Shen to put a hold on their treasure hunting.Lin Feng sat alone, a drink beside him, watching the others celebrate. Shin and Xian had conveniently gone missing after a non-stop argument about who the strongest one was. As for Leona, she stayed away from the celebration, choosing to train instead. Most times, Lin Feng found it hard to understand her and her obsession with getting stronger. At one time, he had thought she only wanted to get stronger to get rid of the seal placed on her, but he doubted it. He could not sense any animosity in their connection. Either she was just that good at hiding it, or she really did not have any animosity towards him. Unfortunately for him, he did not know the answer to that himself."You know, drinking alone is a little depressing. Why are you not out there with the others, dancing or doing something fun? I am sure even

After saying their goodbyes to certain people, Lin Feng and the others set out into the Dark Noxious Mist under the veil of darkness. Like Lin Feng had speculated, everywhere was silent, and the Dao beasts were nowhere in sight. The only sound that could be heard was the sound of their movements, and they tried their best to make their movements as quiet as possible. Even though they were certain it was safe, they could not risk attracting trouble to themselves.While Xian disappeared into the spirit world, having not been there for a while, Shin reduced in size, choosing to curl into a furball on the bald head of Lu Shen. Lu Shen was startled at first when the beast got on top of his head, causing his muscles to tense, but seeing it simply curl and sleep made him calm down and ease up. Lin Feng noticed this and simply shook his head.They continued moving through the silent Dark Noxious Mist, simply following the lead of Lu Shen, as he was the only one familiar with the area. Thankfu

True to her words, Xiao Yue left the Xiao family manor, going after Xiao Chen's killer, and Xiao Ling was forced to go along with her.Xiao Yue was like a wild animal when angry or hurt, and she never hesitated to kill anyone that rubbed her the wrong way. Hence the reason why Xiao Jun thought it would be wise to have Xiao Ling tag along with her. They did not believe she could totally stop Xiao Yue from going haywire, but they knew she would at least try to keep her killing to a minimum. Xiao Ling hated the idea of tagging along because controlling her elder sister was easier said than done, and she hated the fact that she had to be the one babysitting Xiao Yue.She suddenly thought about Xiao Chen, the one who had gotten them in this mess in the first place, and frowned. If that asshole had not gone and gotten himself killed, none of this would have happened."Young Mistress," Li Young, one of the female servants tagging along with them, called out to her, closing the distance betwe

Xiao Yue and Su Yan faced each other across the room. The air was heavy with tension, the shadows in the corners seeming to pulse with anticipation. Xiao Yue's sword was drawn, its edge gleaming with a cold, hungry light. Su Yan's hands glowed with shadow energy, her body tense but ready.Xiao Yue attacked first.Her sword moved in a blur, a series of rapid strikes that seemed to come from every direction at once. She did not use her cultivation technique, relying instead on the brute strength of her Dao Body and her mastery of the blade. There were no hesitations in her movements, her body flowing with the sword like they were one entity.Su Yan raised her hands, shadows coiling around her arms. "Shadow Technique; Form One: Shadow Veil."Darkness erupted from her palm, forming a barrier that absorbed Xiao Yue's strikes. The sword clashed against the veil, sparks flying as the two forces met.Xiao Yue smirked. "Is that all you have?"She pressed forward, her sword dancing through the

Beads of sweat rolled down the faces of the mercenaries as they all sat on the ground, rounded up. Leona sat not too far from them, watching them in boredom, while Lin Feng walked away, leaving them to Leona for the moment.He stopped in front of the cat, glaring at Shin until he finally tore his eyes open. "Do you intend to keep glaring at me that way all day?"Lin Feng clenched his fist in anger, still unable to connect with the shadows. It felt as though it was there but yet still so far away, just beyond his reach."What did you do to me?" Lin Feng continued glaring at Shin, his eyes blazing with anger.Shin snorted. "I am trying to help you, and yet this is the thanks I get."Lin Feng continued glaring at the cat, just seconds away from attacking Shin if he did not give him a suitable response. No matter how much he thought about it, he could not come up with a suitable reason as to why Shin would suddenly interfere with his fight, do something to him, and cut his connection to t
