Three years ago, a group of mysterious people annihilated the Ye family. He survived by luck but was thrown into prison, where by chance, he became the disciple of five masters...
Three years...
"I'm exhausted."
Sun Muqing wiped the sweat from her forehead and let out a long sigh.
"Yes, this Azure Scaled Python is really tough and thick-skinned. It took us so long to finally kill it," Jiang Lingxuan added, she was also exhausted.
If it were a martial artist at the Separation and Union Realm, the two of them working together would have killed the opponent dozens of times over.
However, killing a monster of the same level is extremely difficult and incredibly arduous.
Night Wind laughed and said, "Demon beasts may not possess the same level of intelligence as humans, but their vitality is incredibly strong, far surpassing that of humans, making them even more difficult to kill."
Sun Muqing sheathed her longsword and asked with a smile, "Ye Feng, can you quickly help us see what we can use about this Azure Scaled Python?"
“Yes, I’ve heard that monsters are treasures from head to toe!” Jiang Lingxuan added.
Night Breeze walked over, touched the corpse of the Azure Scaled Python, and after a moment said, "The snake scales and skin can be used to make protective soft armor for you, and the essence blood inside the Azure Scaled Python can be used to make pills. As for the rest, they are basically useless."
"That's enough!" Sun Muqing nodded in satisfaction.
Jiang Lingxuan tilted her head up and asked, "Ye Feng, how did Mu Qing and I do just now? Are you satisfied?"
Night Wind was actually not very satisfied.
Sun Muqing and Jiang Lingxuan used too many fancy moves to deal with the dragon python. Although they looked pleasing to the eye, their beautiful and graceful movements were actually useless.
When fighting an enemy, speed, ruthlessness, and accuracy are paramount.
But now, facing Sun Muqing and Jiang Lingxuan, only a fool would say he was dissatisfied.
"Satisfied, very satisfied."
"You did a very good job. I thought you would need my help."
The night breeze smiled and nodded.
Sun Muqing and Jiang Lingxuan were overjoyed, and both of them had a deep blush on their faces.
Then Ye Feng said, "However, when you fight the enemy in the future, you should try to simplify your movements as much as possible."
"I don't quite understand," Sun Muqing shook her head.
"Give me your sword," Night Wind said, extending his hand.
Sun Muqing then took out the longsword and handed it to Ye Feng.
Ye Feng picked up Sun Muqing's sword and, without any fancy moves, pierced through the towering tree in front of him in an instant—a tree that would take seven or eight people to encircle!
"If I had attacked this azure-scaled dragon python just now, my sword strike would have looked like this. But what about you? Why did you show off so many sword flourishes?" Ye Feng said with a smile.
“Because it will look very nice…” Sun Muqing said, blushing.
"Killing your opponent as quickly as possible is the most important thing," Ye Feng said earnestly.
"Okay, okay..."
Sun Muqing took the longsword back and muttered to himself.
"And what about me?" Jiang Lingxuan asked.
"You should do the same. Just aim your flying needles straight for the vital points. Don't try to pull off all those fancy tricks like acrobatics," Ye Feng said.
Jiang Lingxuan chuckled.
The Azure Scaled Python is already dead, but Ye Feng doesn't plan to skin it, collect its blood essence, or peel off its scales right now.
These things can be done tomorrow after dawn.
The snow rabbit was already cooked; if the night wind hadn't moved the roasted snow rabbit off the campfire, it would definitely be burnt by now.
So Ye Feng said, "Alright, let's eat quickly and get some rest after we finish eating."
"Uh-huh."
Sun Muqing and Jiang Lingxuan nodded repeatedly and walked towards the campfire with Ye Feng.
They were already very hungry, and now, after a fierce battle, they were starving.
However, at that moment, Ye Feng's brows furrowed suddenly.
"The big one is here!" Ye Feng said.
Sun Muqing and Jiang Lingxuan were both completely confused and looked at Ye Feng with suspicion.
"What big thing has arrived?"
"Yeah, what do you mean?"
Sun Muqing and Jiang Lingxuan asked, confused.
Night Wind replied, "This azure-scaled python is only in its juvenile stage and has not yet matured, which means it most likely has a father or mother, and they are probably not far apart."
"If you kill the younger one now, do you think the older one won't come?"
No sooner had Ye Feng finished speaking than a dragon-python flew down from the sky.
This dragon-python was much larger, at least twenty zhang long, and it had two curved horns on its head.
Those two horns even emitted a bright blue light, making them very conspicuous in the night sky!
A seventh-tier demonic beast!
Adult Azure-scaled Python!
A powerful aura swept down from the sky, and Sun Muqing and Jiang Lingxuan immediately felt incredibly heavy, as if dozens of kilograms of invisible weight had been added to their shoulders.
But Ye Feng's expression remained as calm as ever.
Upon seeing the corpse of the young Azure Scaled Python on the ground, the adult Azure Scaled Python, which had rushed over, immediately turned its eyes bloodshot.
Moreover, those two vertical pupils were staring intently at Ye Feng, as if they wished they could devour him alive!
"Step back!" Night Wind said.
Knowing that danger was imminent, Su Muqing and Jiang Lingxuan didn't waste any words and immediately withdrew to make way for Ye Feng's battle, while also avoiding becoming a burden to him.
The next moment, the azure-scaled dragon python in the air pounced over, opening its blood-red maw to bite at Ye Feng.
"You beast, prepare to die!"
Ye Feng waved his right hand, and Lei Ji instantly appeared in his hand.
A massive bolt of lightning instantly appeared, striking out like divine punishment.
In an instant, the seventh-tier demon beast was struck by lightning and tumbled down from the sky, its body crackling with electricity as it struggled and writhed in agony.
The night wind blew again, and hundreds of bolts of lightning struck its body simultaneously.
Boom!
A deafening explosion rang out, and the ground trembled.
All the poisonous insects, birds and beasts in the vicinity were so frightened that they scattered and fled, none of them daring to stay in the same place!
"If you hadn't come, fine, but since you're courting death, don't blame me."
As soon as Ye Feng finished speaking, he swung Lei Ji for the third time.
This time, there were more thunderbolts, and they were more ferocious.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the Azure Scaled Python spat out a swirling blue breath, intending to attack Ye Feng.
But everything it's doing now is in vain.
Under the thunder, all things are but ants!
The breath exhaled by this adult azure-scaled dragon python, which was twenty zhang long, was instantly dispersed by the lightning.
And it itself was charred into a pile by the thunder.
"Okay, all done."
Night Wind smiled as he put away Lei Ji and dusted himself off.
Jiang Lingxuan and Sun Muqing were both stunned.
Night Wind killed the adult blue-scaled python not only swiftly and cleanly, but also with ease.
From beginning to end, he didn't make a single unnecessary movement. Although he didn't look cool, he was quite ordinary.
But that's precisely why it seems so effortless and effortless!
"So...so strong..."
Sun Muqing swallowed hard.
Jiang Lingxuan nodded vigorously and gave a heavy "hmm".
