As Qin Feng had expected, the young man had indeed come back to save him.
The young man, riding a flying sword, sped past Qin Feng like lightning. Without a word, he pulled Qin Feng onto the flying sword and continued to race away.
Qin Feng was speechless; he had only met this young man once.
This person actually risked everything to turn back and save him? Didn't he ever worry that not only would he fail to save him, but he might even be dragged into a desperate situation himself?
Qin Feng turned to look at the seven figures relentlessly pursuing them and said, "You have nowhere to escape with me. Don't you understand that?"
However, the young man merely curled his lip dismissively and replied confidently, "Hey, I'm not stupid. Why would I rashly go back to save you if I wasn't absolutely sure!"
"Relax, those mere seven people have no chance of catching up with me!"
Qin Feng was skeptical of what the young man said, but just as he was about to open his mouth to refute him, suddenly, the seven people behind him launched an extremely fierce attack at the same time.
In an instant, lightning flashed in his palm, blazing fireballs danced, and sharp sword beams crisscrossed... all sorts of spells poured down like a storm, the attack was exceptionally fierce and ruthless.
Faced with such a fierce attack, the young man's expression changed drastically, and he immediately urged his flying sword to dodge rapidly.
Each time, he narrowly escaped the enemy's attack at the last second; a slight misstep could have cost him his life.
The young man looked at Qin Feng with a serious expression and shouted anxiously, "Hold on to me! Don't let go and fall!"
Qin Feng's eyes flashed slightly, and he calmly replied, "In my opinion, you'd better throw me directly into the sea. With me as a burden, you'll have absolutely no chance of escaping."
Upon hearing this, the young man's face instantly darkened, and he angrily rebuked, "I told you to hold on tight, so hold on tight now and stop arguing!"
Qin Feng was speechless, thinking that this person was really stubborn and couldn't understand anything.
After all, they had only met once, so why take such a big risk to save him?
Fortunately, it was him this time; if it had been anyone else, the young man would likely have met with dire consequences.
Since the young man was so persistent, Qin Feng was unwilling to persuade him any further. In any case, with him around, there would be no danger.
The young man devoted himself entirely to controlling the flying sword, and without hesitation poured his own life essence into it.
With the infusion of essence and blood, the flying sword seemed to receive a huge energy boost, and its speed increased more than three times in the blink of an eye!
Qin Feng frowned slightly upon witnessing this scene. He knew that while using blood essence to power a flying sword could significantly increase its speed, doing so would undoubtedly cause severe internal injuries to the caster and deplete a large amount of vital energy.
This guy is such a complete pushover!
Qin Feng looked helpless. This method of speeding up was obviously unsustainable. Judging by the speed of the seven people behind them, they would be caught up sooner or later.
After a brief hesitation, Qin Feng sighed softly, "Alright, let's stop!"
Then he said confidently, "They are just a few Foundation Establishment stage opponents. I can easily kill them."
The young man was taken aback by Qin Feng's words, then retorted with a speechless expression, "What are you bragging about?"
"You've lost all your cultivation and haven't recovered yet, how could you possibly kill those seven people?"
Qin Feng smiled slightly. "As the saying goes, 'Even a starved camel is bigger than a horse,' understand?"
After saying that, Qin Feng immediately summoned the Five Elements Sword. The next moment, the Five Elements Sword transformed into a dazzling stream of five-colored light, which shot towards the seven people behind him like lightning.
The Five Elements Sword moved with the speed of a whirlwind, arriving in front of the seven people in the blink of an eye.
Faced with such a sudden attack, the seven people had no time to react, and didn't even have time to let out a scream before they were all killed by the Five Elements Sword.
The scene before his eyes was so shocking that the young man was completely stunned.
He opened his mouth wide, but couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time.
Qin Feng casually waved his hand, retrieving the Five Elements Sword to his side and storing it within his body.
Looking at the young man who was still in shock, Qin Feng smiled faintly and said softly, "Although my cultivation is completely destroyed, my natal magic weapon has not been affected."
"And it has developed its own consciousness and can fight on its own without my control."
The young man swallowed hard, his face full of curiosity as he asked, "Who...who exactly are you? What level were you at before?"
Qin Feng glanced at the young man and smiled. "Can I not answer? Because I don't want to lie to you!"
Hearing Qin Feng's words, the young man was speechless. "Is it really necessary?"
"Are you some heinous criminal who's worried I'll harm you if I find out your identity?"
"Even if we don't mention your identity, you can at least mention your cultivation level, right?"
Qin Feng didn't respond, but directly changed the subject. "By the way, where are you planning to go next?"
The young man glanced at Qin Feng, looking displeased. "Fine, don't talk then!"
"I'm going home, do you want to come with me?"
Qin Feng pondered for a moment, then asked, "Where do you live?"
The young man replied, "Lingwu Mountain Range!"
"The Spirit Mist Mountain Range?" Qin Feng frowned. He had heard of the Spirit Mist Mountain Range, which was considered the second best cultivation place in the Heavenly Realm after the Nine Islands of Lingxiao!
The spiritual energy there is exceptionally rich, far surpassing that of other regions.
After a moment of silence, Qin Feng gently shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I can't go with you. I still have some things to take care of."
The young man didn't press the matter. After all, the natal magic weapon Qin Feng had just displayed was truly astonishing and had greatly shocked him. He certainly wouldn't be so presumptuous as to claim he would protect Qin Feng as before.
After a moment's thought, he looked at Qin Feng and introduced himself. "My name is Ning Wuji. May I ask how you should address me?"
Qin Feng hesitated for a moment, then answered honestly. "Qin Feng!"
"Qin Feng?" Ning Wuji raised an eyebrow slightly upon hearing this, a look of confusion on his face.
"This name sounds familiar, as if I've heard it somewhere before..."
Qin Feng smiled slightly and explained, "There are many people in the world with the same name, so it's not surprising that you find it familiar."
Ning Wuji nodded. "That's true!"
"Then I'll be going. Take care!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Feng took out the Five Elements Sword, stood on it, and looked at Ning Wuji, saying, "If we are destined to meet again in the future, I will bestow upon you a great opportunity!"
Ning Wuji shrugged dismissively, said nothing, and rode away on his flying sword.
