Urban's Fury: The War Dragon God-Chapter 1498: Trouble Comes Knocking

"Even if that's the case, there's nothing we can do now. We're struggling to protect ourselves."

Xiao Luobing sighed.

Outside, she was the esteemed young lady of the Xiao Family, one of the ten ancient martial families, always the center of attention wherever she went.

But here, she had turned into a rare commodity, a female slave likely to be sold to some clan as a plaything.

When they arrived in the Kunlun World, the members of the Xiao Family got separated. Now, she just wanted to find them and then figure out a way to leave.

As for the Demon Sect.

Even if they put a hole in the Kunlun World, what does it have to do with her?

"Are you still thinking about eliminating demons and upholding justice?"

Xiao Luobing looked at Li Feng with a mocking expression.

"You're overthinking it."

Eliminating demons and upholding justice?

Li Feng really didn't have such thoughts. What is justice, and what is evil? It's inherently hard to define.

Li Feng's actions were guided by four words: a clear conscience.

Whether it's for the country or for family and brothers.

When the Demon Path's people killed his Dragon Guards, as the Dragon King, he naturally wanted revenge and to make an example of them.

"Regardless of what the Demon Path is plotting, it has nothing to do with us. Our primary goal now is to get to Ancestor Dragon City, and then find our lost companions."

As for the Demon Path.

As long as they don't trouble him, Li Feng temporarily had no interest in settling scores with the Demon Path.

After all, this Kunlun World is not friendly to them. How to survive here is the primary concern.

Zi Yan didn't have much opinion about the Demon Path either. Although the Demon Path had a bad reputation, she wasn't aware of any heinous crimes they had committed.

At least from her birth until now, the greatest hardships came not from the Demon Path but from the noble families in Ancestor Dragon City.

Ran Yue felt the same. She had a blood feud with the noble families, having had her family destroyed and wanting nothing more than vengeance.

If someone from the Demon Path offered to help her seek revenge, she wouldn't hesitate to join them, nor would she harbor hatred against the Demon Path.

So no one suggested tracking the departing members of the Demon Path or probing into their plans.

They were not saviors, and Li Feng didn't want to be a selfless saint.

Subsequently, the four of them mounted their celestial horses and hit the road again.

However, shortly after they left, a figure in white appeared at the spot where they had previously stopped.

"A group with one man and three women. Who exactly are they?"

Ming Xin furrowed his brow.

"No matter who you are, the major event is imminent. It cannot be disrupted by you." Ming Xin muttered to himself, and as he raised his hand, a black crow flapped its wings and landed on his arm.

With mounts, Li Feng and his companions' speed increased more than tenfold, and they galloped hundreds of miles across the wilderness. As the golden crow returned to its nest, nightfall was approaching.

"Let's rest here for the night."

Li Feng found a wind-sheltered hillside and stopped.

As they got closer to Ancestor Dragon City, there were fewer beast sightings in the wilderness. Occasionally some appeared, but they were harmless Yellow Level spiritual beasts, which became game for Zi Yan's arrows and turned into their dinner.

After a barbecued feast, they used animal skins as bedding and slept right on the ground. Fortunately, the Kunlun World didn't seem to have four seasons, with different climates appearing in different regions.

In the first half of the night, Zi Yan volunteered to take the first watch. Li Feng didn't refuse; he indeed needed to recuperate.

Li Feng sat cross-legged, feeling the Purple Flame in his body. Previously, it was just the size of a marble, but after two battles, it clearly doubled in size, as big as a baby's fist.

Because of this Mutated Purple Flame, Li Feng's Qi had also mutated.

Besides being domineering, his Qi now had an additional property. When he released the Qi, the Purple Flame clung to it like oil on water, and the Qi carried a destructive aura.

Li Feng wasn't sure if this Purple Flame was beneficial or detrimental to him.

With this Mutated Purple Flame, Li Feng's power had indeed surged, but the fact that it grew stronger by devouring made him uneasy; he feared it might consume him one day.

After all, when he first swallowed the Mutated Purple Flame, it almost burned him from within.

Moreover, his current realm was somewhat peculiar.

He felt he should have surpassed the Foundation Establishment, but wasn't at the Golden Core Realm, as reaching the Golden Core Realm required condensing a life bond Golden Core. But this Purple Flame?

It certainly didn't look like his life bond Golden Core.

He didn't even know what to call his current state—perhaps the so-called False Core Realm.

While Li Feng was circulating his Qi to restore his state.

Suddenly, a loud blast erupted.

Li Feng's eyes snapped open, and the sound also woke Xiao Luobing and Ran Yue from their deep sleep, proving how loud it was.

Zi Yan looked toward a distant direction: "It's from over there. It seems a battle is happening, and with such commotion, it's at least a Golden Core level clash."

Outside, Foundation Establishment was already a pinnacle, and Golden Core was almost unreachable.

But in Kunlun World, Foundation Establishment was just average; Golden Core marked a master, while Nascent Soul signified an overlord of this world.

However, Nascent Soul Stage overlords in Kunlun World were few and far between—extremely rare—so Golden Core was considered the pinnacle of combat power.

A family without a Golden Core member wasn't even deemed notable, and the number of Golden Core cultivators also marked a family's strength.

"Golden Core?"

Xiao Luobing swallowed hard. Was the power of a Golden Core really that great? This noise sounded as powerful as a missile.

"Could it have something to do with the Demon Path?"

Ran Yue suddenly suggested.

Li Feng thought of the same thing: "We don't need to worry about it; the commotion is at least a hundred miles away. Continue resting."

Li Feng didn't plan to watch the commotion, even though a Golden Core clash would certainly be spectacular.

The distant battle was indeed earth-shattering, visible and audible from afar, even enhancing the surrounding winds.

This is the power of a Golden Core.

The distant battle raged on, but Li Feng was determined to remain immovable as a mountain, no matter the chaos over there.

But just as Li Feng planned to stay out of it, reality defied his wishes.

Amidst the distant darkness, the sound of approaching hoofbeats made its way directly toward them.

In just a moment.

Li Feng spotted a celestial horse approaching in the dark, with someone astride it, drawn to their firelight, riding straight toward them.

As the horseback figure arrived, they spoke: "In the name of the Ji Family of the Ancestor Dragon City's Eight Families, I command you to block those behind and protect me."

Li Feng looked at the rider, a young maiden seemingly around the age of sixteen, who, under the firelight, revealed a stunning beauty, though her pretty face was slightly pale and anxious.

Yet, her demeanor, as someone from a noble family, still carried an innate arrogance.
