Yang Xiaotian left in the distance.
At that moment, a flame fluttered from his fingertips and fell upon Deng Yi’s corpse.
Deng Yi’s body was incinerated by the flames, eventually turning into a pile of ashes which scattered in the night wind.
It was as if Deng Yi had never existed in these wild and desolate hills.
Luo Qing followed Yang Xiaotian, and the scene of Yang Xiaotian killing Deng Yi also left him unable to calm down.
He hadn’t expected Yang Xiaotian to kill Deng Yi with such ease.
After all, Deng Yi was at the tenth level of Innate!
And yet, he was killed so effortlessly.
With just one sword strike!
Moreover, Luo Qing hadn’t expected Yang Xiaotian to know one of the top ten sword techniques in the world, the Heaven-Penetrating Sword Technique!
As the master of a sect, how could Luo Qing be unaware of the Heaven-Penetrating Sword Technique?
However, like countless other experts in the Martial Soul World, he had only heard of the top ten sword techniques but had never seen them in action.
Yang Xiaotian himself hadn’t expected that the ‘Sword Rain Splendor’ move could be so formidable.
Originally, he wanted to use Deng Yi to hone his swordsmanship.
Now, he didn’t even have the opportunity to do that.
However, his ability to kill Deng Yi with such ease was not only due to the formidable Heaven-Penetrating Sword Technique, but also because Deng Yi had been careless and was injured from the beginning, which would not have happened if Deng Yi hadn’t underestimated him.
Having killed Deng Yi, Yang Xiaotian gained a general understanding of his own strength; with the Primordial Dragon Art combined with the Heaven-Penetrating Sword Technique, he was stronger than many at the tenth level of Innate.
Although he was at the peak of the fifth level of Innate, his Innate True Qi was as profound as those who had just broken through to the tenth level of Innate like Deng Yi.
Red Moon Forest was the largest primeval forest in the surrounding countries, with an enormous area that bordered the lands of over a dozen nations.
After leaving Divine Sword City, Yang Xiaotian and his companion hurried along and despite their swift pace, it still took them several hours to reach the edge of the Red Moon Forest.
By that time, the sky had already begun to brighten.
The entire Red Moon Forest was shrouded in a gloomy haze.
Above the forest, a thin mist hovered.
All was quiet between heaven and earth.
The Red Moon Forest in front of them resembled a deep abyssal beast with its jaws wide open.
“Master, should we rest for a while?” Luo Qing asked Yang Xiaotian.
After all, they had been on the road for the whole night.
“No need,” Yang Xiaotian shook his head.
With the ever-continuing flow of True Dragon Qi from the Primordial Dragon Art, he wouldn’t feel tired even if he traveled for a month. The two of them entered the Red Moon Forest.
The dampness in the forest was heavy, and upon entering the Red Moon Forest, Yang Xiaotian felt his whole body damp and cool.
Along the way, they occasionally encountered experts from the Divine Sea Country.
As the largest primeval forest in the surrounding countries, the Red Moon
Forest was rife with fierce beasts, and thus, not only experts from the Divine Sea Country but also many from surrounding nations would enter the forest to hunt.
Experts of the Divine Sea Country were surprised to see a child like Yang Xiaotian entering the Red Moon Forest.
Some, out of kindness, urged Yang Xiaotian to leave the Red Moon Forest.
Others even scolded Luo Qing, an elder leading a child like Yang Xiaotian into the Red Moon Forest for training.
Luo Qing could only smile bitterly.
He was indeed at a loss for words.
The edge of the Red Moon Forest was free of fierce beasts, but as they went deeper, they gradually encountered more of them.
However, these fierce beasts were not strong, most of them were at the Acquired level.
Xiao Jin, without needing Yang Xiaotian or Luo Qing to take action, simply swept them away with a flick of its big tail.
As the two of them and the beast ventured deeper, the sky gradually darkened.
By nightfall, fierce beasts roamed frequently in the Red Moon Forest, and the miasma grew thicker, so Yang Xiaotian and Luo Qing found a small valley where they decided to rest for the night before continuing on their journey.
Soon, a campfire was lit.
Yang Xiaotian and Luo Qing sat by the campfire, roasting the bear meat they had just hunted.
The aroma filled the air.
Xiao Jin sat there, drooling with desire.
“Seems like it’s Azure Bear meat! Damn, that smells good!” Just then, from outside the valley, a rough voice came, followed by the sound of footsteps entering the valley.
A group of men appeared in Yang Xiaotian and Luo Qing’s field of vision.
There were more than a dozen of them, all sturdy men.
“It’s the Blood Saber Gang,” Luo Qing said to Yang Xiaotian.
Yang Xiaotian nodded.
He had heard of the Blood Saber Gang; it was a large gang in the Divine Sea Country, similar to the Black Wind Stronghold he had destroyed before, specializing in committing acts of burning, killing, and looting.
These were desperate men, and after they came in, a fierce aura rushed towards Yang Xiaotian and Luo Qing.
After the members of the Blood Saber Gang entered, they were shocked to see Yang Xiaotian, clearly not expecting to meet a child in the Red Moon Forest.
“Hey, there’s even a kid. Kid, you wouldn’t happen to be here in the Red Moon
Forest to hunt fierce beasts, would you?” One of the bald men joked with Yang Xiaotian, “I bet you’re still on your mother’s milk, aren’t you? Did you wet yourself when you saw the beasts?”
The Blood Saber Gang burst into laughter.
Luo Qing’s expression darkened.
“You still have a chance to leave now,” Yang Xiaotian said, playing with the meat on the grill, his voice light and airy.
The Blood Saber Gang were taken aback.
The bald man laughed, “Little brat, what did you say? Telling me to scram?” And then, with a beckoning finger, he said, “Come on, your daddy’s standing here; I’ll let you throw one punch. If you can make it count, I’ll spare your life.”
No sooner had he finished speaking than Yang Xiaotian, seated by the campfire, suddenly threw out a punch.
Instantly, the roar of the fist scream, as ten True Qi Dragons flew out, splitting the air.
The dragons roared through heaven and earth.
Boom!
A massive fist imprint slammed into the bald man’s exposed chest.
The bald man was sent flying like a kite with a broken string and slammed against the mountainside behind him.
With his mouth open, he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
The whole Blood Saber Gang stood there dumbfounded.
“Kill him for me!” the bald man cried out in shock and anger.
However, just as the Blood Saber Gang members were about to make a move, they saw Luo Qing rise in the air, and her broadsword came slashing down fiercely.
At once, more than a dozen sword auras fell from above each of the gang members’ heads.
Blood splattered into the air.
The gang members of the Blood Saber Gang stood there and one by one fell down.
Afterward, Luo Qing delivered another slash, ending the bald man.
However, while clearing the bodies of the gang members, Yang Xiaotian found an oddly shaped, broken dagger on one of them.
The dagger’s shape was strange, and by its looks, it should be a key, with mysterious runes on the blade.
“This is Long Clan script,” said Luo Qing after a careful examination, addressing Yang Xiaotian.
“Oh, Long Clan script,” Yang Xiaotian remarked with surprise. He flipped the dagger over a few times, wondering if it was an object of the Long Clan since it was inscribed with their script.
Did the Blood Saber Gang come to the Red Moon Forest in possession of this Long Clan item in search of treasure?
After inspecting it for a while, Yang Xiaotian carefully tucked away the dagger, planning to thoroughly research the Long Clan script on it once he returned to the academy..
