Defeating the Enemy in One Move

Ge Ye, who had been standing casually, suddenly froze. His already narrow eyes instantly squinted.

Nalan Yanran suddenly turned around.

Yun Feng had merely been standing there casually, but...

Bang!

A tremendous force struck him. Yun Feng flew away like a kite with its string cut.

He slammed into a large tree with a boom—crack!

With another crack, the tree snapped in half at its waist.

Pfft!

Unable to catch his breath, Yun Feng spat out a mouthful of blood.

He looked at Nalan Chaoge before him in horror.

That was definitely not the strength of a Dou Zhe. But for everyone to believe that Nalan Chaoge already possessed the strength of a Dou Master was equally impossible!

For a moment, both Nalan Chaoge and Ge Ye were stunned.

"This..."

Nalan Yanran shot Nalan Chaoge a reproachful glance, then hurried over to help Yun Feng up.

Yun Feng had barely risen to his feet when the movement made him spit out another mouthful of blood.

A monster. This guy was absolutely a monster. With that kick alone, no Dou Zhe could have avoided it.

In truth, Nalan Chaoge had frightened himself.

The Gate of Opening of the Eight Inner Gates could unlock the brain's restrictions on the body's physical potential. He had only opened the first gate, and with the leg he had strengthened using the Marrow Cleansing Pill, it could unleash such tremendous power?

"Cough, cough. Um, Brother Yun Feng, are you alright? I really didn't mean to. Here, this is a Grade 2 Pill, a Vitality Pill. Take it quickly!" Nalan Chaoge said apologetically.

If he had known he was this strong, why had he hidden when he encountered Mu Tong, a two-star Dou Master? One kick would have killed him!

No, that was wrong. He now possessed the strength of a Dou Master, so naturally he was no longer on the same level as a Dou Zhe.

After taking the Vitality Pill, some color finally returned to Yun Feng's pale face. He gave Nalan Chaoge a helpless smile.

"It's nothing. I lost."

Ge Ye stared at Nalan Chaoge in shock. No wonder this brat dared to challenge Xiao Yan. So he possessed such terrifying strength.

The Misty Cloud Sect's prized disciple had not even withstood a single kick from him.

"I only won by unfair means. If Brother Yun Feng had dodged, my kick might not have hit you. No matter how strong an attack is, if it doesn't hit the opponent, it's useless!"

"I was careless. If we had truly fought, I definitely would not have been a match for Brother Nalan."

"Alright, stop being so modest." Ge Ye walked over and examined Nalan Chaoge from head to toe. "Chaoge, I saw you use a secret technique just now to raise your strength. Such secret techniques may temporarily increase one's power, but you must beware of the backlash!"

"Mm, I understand, Uncle Ge!" Nalan Chaoge humbly accepted the advice. A Da Dou Shi truly was a Da Dou Shi. Even his well-concealed Eight Inner Gates had been noticed.

"Yun Feng, you've always called yourself a genius. Now you've met your match! When we return, make sure to train harder!"

Yun Feng lowered his head and acknowledged it.

"Xiao Ge, who did you learn all this from? Our Nalan Family doesn't have such powerful Battle Skills!" Nalan Yanran walked to Nalan Chaoge's side. She was genuinely worried that he had gone down a path of no return.

She had heard from her master that there were many forbidden arts on the continent capable of temporarily increasing one's strength.

"Don't worry, Sis. I know what I'm doing. I met an Alchemist master, and he taught me these Battle Skills. Ah, it's getting late. You should head back. I just remembered that I still have something to do!"

"You're not coming back with us?"

"Sis, go back first. I still have something to do. Before I go to Jia Nan Academy, I'll visit you at the Misty Cloud Sect. Then we can catch up properly!"

Nalan Chaoge was beginning to panic. He had too many secrets, and it was not yet time for them to know.

"Where are you going?" Nalan Yanran called out worriedly.

"Me? I still have some things to do!" Nalan Chaoge replied with a grin.

"You're not going home with us?" Nalan Yanran looked at him strangely.

"I..." Nalan Chaoge could not come up with an excuse. He could hardly tell her that he wanted to go to Qingshan Town to find a woman named Xiao Yi Xian, then to Desert City to find Qing Lin, then to the Tagor Desert to find Queen Medusa, and then...

"You're coming home with me!" Nalan Yanran said firmly.

Huh?

Nalan Chaoge was instantly dumbfounded. Looking at Nalan Yanran's resolute expression, he said, "But, Sis..."

"But what? You're just an immature brat who hasn't even come of age yet. What are you wandering around outside for? Besides, it wasn't easy for me to come down the mountain this time. You have to keep me company for a few more days. I still have plenty of things to ask you!" Nalan Yanran said, leaving no room for argument as she grabbed Nalan Chaoge by the ear.

In truth, after Nalan Chaoge's reminder, Nalan Yanran had also become wary. A woman's intuition was the sharpest, and that girl named Xun'er was definitely not simple.

Moreover, she had sensed the other girl's determination from her eyes.

With Ge Ye beside her, Xun'er would refrain from doing anything to her out of respect for the Misty Cloud Sect. But how could Nalan Yanran rest easy letting Nalan Chaoge wander outside alone?

"Ow, ow, Sis, be gentler. I... I'll go back, alright?" Nalan Chaoge said miserably.

He had originally planned to go to Qingshan Town and recruit Xiao Yi Xian. It seemed all his plans had gone down the drain this time.

As long as he controlled the Poison Body of Calamity and the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils, Nalan Chaoge believed that dealing with Xiao Yan in the future would become much easier.

But seeing the worry and expectation in Nalan Yanran's eyes, Nalan Chaoge truly could not bear to refuse her request.

Forget it. He should take care of his own affairs first.

Xiao Yan, I won't touch your connections. Let's see just how far you can grow!

"That's more like it!" Nalan Yanran patted Nalan Chaoge on the head. "Don't worry. I once heard my master say that Pill King Gu He had once obtained a Pill Recipe by chance. As long as the ingredients are gathered and the pill is refined, one's strength can rise greatly. When we return, I'll ask my master to seek out the Pill King!"

"What?" Nalan Chaoge had just taken a step when Nalan Yanran's words made him freeze.

Didn't that mean Nalan Yanran would ask Yun Yun, Yun Yun would go seek the Amethyst Winged Lion King, and the plot where Xiao Yan drugged Yun Yun with an aphrodisiac would still happen unchanged?

"I'll go ask my master for help!"

"No, no, Sis, you absolutely must not ask your master to help me!" Nalan Chaoge felt like his balls were aching.

If he could not bring Yun Yun under control, then when he confronted Xiao Yan in the future and Yun Yun came to help, Nalan Yanran would be stuck in the middle. That would be difficult to handle.

"Why not?"

"Uh, well, our Nalan Family has always acted openly and honorably. Oh, right—I'm not from your Misty Cloud Sect. It wouldn't be right for me to use your Misty Cloud Sect's pills. If word got out, that wouldn't be fair!"

As the voices of the group gradually faded into the distance, the entire Magical Beast Forest returned to silence.

Only after they had disappeared did a graceful woman slowly emerge from behind a large tree nearby.

She wore a plain light-blue dress. Her long dark hair was arranged into a phoenix-shaped headdress, and she held a somewhat unusual longsword in her hand.

The woman who had suddenly appeared was Yun Yun, the Sect Leader of the Misty Cloud Sect and Nalan Yanran's master.

"To drive Yun Feng back with a single move, that little fellow has quite good talent! Fine. If Yanran truly comes begging me in the future, what harm is there in helping you once?"
