Battle with Gao Han!

Chu Feng returned to his original appearance. He stood eight feet tall, with refined features, and held a ten-foot-long Zhanmadao.

His expression was as calm as water as he stared straight at Gao Han atop his horse.

"Chu Feng? I wasn't even looking for you, yet you came here to throw your life away?"

Elder Gao's expression was full of disdain. He had been busy searching for Fierce God these days and had nearly forgotten about this escaped servant.

Seeing the spectacle before them, the surrounding commoners knew trouble was brewing. Afraid of being caught in the crossfire, they all fled at top speed. Within the time it took to breathe two or three times, the broad street had emptied completely.

"Elder Gao, you're joking. I don't know when I'll die, but I do know that you'll definitely die before me!"

Chu Feng's tone was calm, but the words he spoke seethed with murderous intent!

Gao Han could not be bothered with more nonsense. With a grand wave of his hand, the guards behind him spurred their warhorses toward Chu Feng.

Five horses charged forward. Borrowing the horses' momentum, five long sabers hacked down from above, as if they would mince Chu Feng into pulp the next instant.

"Brother Chu, run!" Lin Da Niu shouted in terror.

These guards were no mere low-level servants who had once pursued Chu Feng. Most of them were veteran soldiers who had weathered countless battles and understood coordinated attacks. The Fang Family had recruited them at great expense.

"Hahaha! Perfect timing. Take this—Wind Cutter!"

Chu Feng threw back his head and laughed. The Heavy Mountain Saber in his hand swept horizontally, howling winds surging toward the five men and five horses.

If the Wind Cutter Chu Feng had used with the Straight Saber before had been a nimble, keen edge that cut through anything, then the same move executed with this Zhanmadao was fierce and unstoppable, shattering everything in its path!

The domineering saber wind whipped his robes into a furious flap. Under its pressure, the five horses and five men were scared witless. Before their masters could even give an order, the horses' hooves leaped high, trying to halt their charge.

Unfortunately, it was already too late. The Mò Dāo cleaved through them, crushing men and horses alike!

Not one of the five men and five horses escaped. All were reduced to a mangled mess of flesh, blood scattering across the sky!

[Slain five horses, plundered five years of lifespan!]

[Slain five Early Quenching Flesh Realm Martial Artists, plundered twenty-five years of lifespan!]

Lin Da Niu stood frozen. He could never have imagined that Chu Feng, who had once been in the same realm as him, could now kill five Muscle Tempering Realm Martial Artists with a single saber strike!

Lin Qiao Er's mouth hung open even wider, her eyes fixed unblinkingly on Chu Feng.

"Who would have thought he possessed such divine strength? Could he have tempered five hundred muscles, giving him the strength of ten thousand jin?"

Gao Han was also deeply shocked as he stared at the five men and five horses reduced to mangled flesh.

"Is that so? Elder Gao, why not try it and find out?" Chu Feng said with a calm smile.

"Arrogant! You gained a minor fortuitous encounter and now don't know the height of the heavens or the depth of the earth. Since you dared appear before me, then die!"

Gao Han's expression turned cold. He immediately urged his horse into a furious gallop, bringing his long saber down in a vertical slash, bearing down on Chu Feng like Mount Tai collapsing from above.

With the long saber in his grasp, Chu Feng wielded the ten-foot-long Mò Dāo like a divine dragon patrolling the heavens. Even a casual horizontal sweep carried an unparalleled sense of oppression.

"Clang! Clang!"

In the blink of an eye, the two exchanged several blows. Saber qi burst forth, and deep trenches were continuously carved into the ground.

"Does Elder Gao not know what saber I'm wielding?" Chu Feng asked with a smile as he looked at Gao Han riding his tall horse.

As he spoke, he used the Mò Dāo to execute the perfected Breaking Edge Saber Technique. Domineering saber wind swept across Gao Han and his horse!

"Neigh!"

Though Gao Han's horsemanship was superb, he was still struck in the horse's legs by Chu Feng's Mò Dāo.

The warhorse crashed to its knees, throwing Gao Han's body off balance as well.

How could Chu Feng let such an opportunity pass?

He raised the Mò Dāo high. The long saber resembled a divine ax splitting heaven and earth as it came crashing down!

Gao Han's expression changed drastically. He had no time to worry about his horse and hurriedly leaped into the air.

"Bang!"

Chu Feng's terrifying slash split the warhorse in two, blood blooming like flowers.

Gao Han failed to dodge in time and was drenched in the horse's foul, steaming blood.

"Damn it!"

Gao Han's face darkened completely. He had never expected Chu Feng's saber technique to be so exquisite. It had probably already reached the perfected realm.

At such a young age, he possessed such talent. This boy absolutely could not be allowed to live!

Gao Han made up his mind. He no longer intended to capture Chu Feng alive.

As he spoke, he tore off the robes stained red with blood, revealing his sturdy muscles. Veins as smooth as green jade rippled across his body like living creatures.

"A Muscle Tendon Realm Martial Artist connects the great tendons with the skin and muscles, coordinating the strength of the entire body and erupting with twice the body's strength and speed."

"Don't think that merely cultivating a superior Muscle Tempering Technique and gaining a little extra strength will let you defeat me!"

"Die!" With a thunderous roar, Gao Han's figure shot forward like a fierce tiger descending the mountain, swift as lightning. In the blink of an eye, he reached Chu Feng.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

The long saber in Gao Han's hand carried tremendous force. In the space of a breath, he swung it more than ten times. Waves of saber aura formed an impenetrable net that enveloped Chu Feng.

"So fast!"

"So strong!"

Chu Feng felt that Gao Han's strength and speed had both increased several times over.

He immediately understood: the warhorse had been restricting Gao Han's performance. This was the true strength of the Muscle Tendon Realm!

"Clang!"

"Clang!"

The sound of weapons colliding exploded beside their ears.

Chu Feng's long saber whipped like a divine dragon's tail. The muscles he had tempered to the limit erupted completely.

His clothes burst apart. His exposed muscles looked like an enraged Vajra glaring with bared fangs. With overwhelming force, he blocked all of Gao Han's attacks!

"Nearly twenty thousand jin of force!"

"So this is the power of a Muscle Tendon Realm Martial Artist. Truly terrifying!"

Feeling the force coursing through his arms, Chu Feng's expression grew solemn. He realized that he had ultimately underestimated his opponent.

What Chu Feng did not know was that Gao Han was even more shocked than he was.

"What cultivation technique are you practicing? How can your muscles possess such wondrous properties?"

Suddenly, Gao Han seemed to think of something. His pupils contracted sharply, and he cried out, "Muscles that can control their changes? Then Fierce God is you, boy?"

Gao Han flew into a rage from embarrassment. After tracking them for so many days, he had discovered that the two people were actually one and the same. It was pitiful how thoroughly he had been toyed with!

In his fury, his attacks grew even more ferocious and rapid, yet he still could not defeat Chu Feng.

The three-hundred-jin Mò Dāo was incredibly nimble in Chu Feng's hands. Even though Gao Han was much faster, he still could not injure Chu Feng in the slightest.

Chu Feng swung the Mò Dāo, unleashing all kinds of moves—slicing, sweeping, chopping, and stabbing. Every one of them carried tremendous pressure. He clashed head-on with Gao Han of the Muscle Tendon Realm and did not fall at the slightest disadvantage!

"I've already used my full strength, yet I still can't take down this brat?"

Gao Han narrowed his eyes. The muscles and meridians throughout his body bulged, while the blue tendons across his skin pulled taut one after another, seeming to form a fierce, mottled tiger. The force and speed of his saber strikes forcibly rose by a substantial margin.

"Clang!"

"Clang!"

To his surprise, Chu Feng blocked every one of them without trouble.

"Ah!"

Gao Han let out a shout and forced his body beyond its limits. His long saber erupted into countless afterimages.

At full strength, his skin flushed red, and the great tendons nearly tore free from his skin. White vapor poured from his body, and the force behind his strikes had already exceeded twenty thousand jin.

Under such a barrage, Chu Feng remained calm, his steps steady.

Gao Han felt increasingly that something was wrong. The Mò Dāo in the boy's hands was heavy and powerful yet astonishingly nimble. None of his attacks could injure Chu Feng in the slightest.

Instead, with every clash of weapons, the three-foot Straight Saber in his hand wailed miserably.

Finally, after a burst of power at his limits, Gao Han's Straight Saber could bear no more. It snapped, sending the blade flying.

Like a ferocious beast driven into a desperate corner, Gao Han suddenly threw the broken saber in his hand like a hidden weapon, sending it shooting toward Chu Feng's brow.

"Clang!"

Quick-eyed and quick-handed, Chu Feng planted the hilt against the ground and raised the broad blade before his brow, blocking the fatal strike.

Seeing that even this had failed, Gao Han fell into utter despair. He knew very well that without a weapon, he could not possibly be Chu Feng's match.

He abruptly lunged toward Lin Da Niu and Lin Qiao Er, who were watching the battle from the side.

Gao Han guessed that the two were definitely very closely related to Chu Feng. Otherwise, Chu Feng would never have risked revealing himself.

And the truth was indeed as he had guessed. Seeing Gao Han's movement, Chu Feng leaped after him.

Then Gao Han suddenly revealed a sinister smile and abruptly scattered a cloud of lime powder from his left hand.

"How despicable!"

Lin Da Niu and Lin Qiao Er shouted angrily at the same time.

"Haha... To be able to kill such a prodigy truly excites me beyond words. I'll burn an extra stick of incense at your grave!"

Gao Han felt no shame. Instead, he laughed loudly. Taking advantage of the moment Chu Feng covered his eyes, he thrust the short blade hidden in his right hand viciously toward Chu Feng's chest.
