Luo Feng is the current head of the Luo Family. He was born during the Luo Family's most prosperous period. With the help of the Gluttony Mask, each generation of the family could produce an invulnerable soldier. Even members of the Luo Family cultivated the Golden Cicada Body could potentially become innate beings by using the Black Heaven Mask as a medium.

At that time Luo Feng was not the eldest son of the third branch of the family. He had an older brother who was the one Luo Feng admired the most. No matter what the older brother did, he remained calm and never regretted any of his decisions.

Even after stealing the family's Black Heaven Mask and giving it to that woman, he didn't run away. He just stood at a distance, watching the scenery, maintaining his composure even after committing a colossal mistake.

He had no regrets, but he had spoken a little too much that day. He told Luo Feng that the Black Heaven was an ominous sign, and that Luo Feng should never touch the Black Heaven's Black Heaven Secret Treasure or try to explore its secrets. He even said with a smile that understanding the secrets of the Black Heaven was the thing he regretted most in his life.

He said it would be better to return the Black Heaven Secret Treasure. He said he would rather the Luo Family never have to touch those things again. Knowing too much is a sin. Because of this, he acted on his emotions and finally asked Luo Feng to take care of his daughter.

Luo Feng didn't understand his thoughts, only thinking that he was bewitched by that woman, which was why he abandoned his wife and children and betrayed his family. So in the end, Luo Feng chose to kill his own brother, obtained the family's forgiveness, and prevented the third branch from being removed from the direct line. In the end, he even single-handedly reversed the decline of the Luo Family. Although it was still somewhat different from its peak, it could still be called a powerful and influential family.

Therefore, he became the patriarch of the Luo Family. He then adopted his elder brother's daughter and raised her as his own. Looking at Luo Feiyan, who was trying to calm herself down, Luo Feng understood her feelings. In the end, she had acted on her emotions.

Upon hearing of the emergence of the Black Heaven Secret Treasure, Fei Yan couldn't resist bringing it back. Fei Yan wanted to make amends for her biological father's mistakes, but she herself wanted to see what this so-called Black Heaven Treasure was all about.

Why could his elder brother feel regret? Why could his elder brother abandon his wife and children and betray his family? Why could his elder brother be willing to sacrifice his own life? Luo Feng knew that something was wrong with his feelings, but he still acted on his emotions.

"They're here!" Luo Feng saw the flashing fireworks in the distance, which were the family's scouts reporting the news. So Luo Feng got up and led Luo Feiyan to the top of the manor's city wall. From afar, they could see the young man walking out of the path.

As Liu Feng walked along the road, he squinted and could see that quite a few people were already standing on the opposite city wall. He had no intention of hiding; he wasn't cut out for stealth, and even if he were, it would be the Kang Clan Stealth Method.

He held a sword in his hand, his hand turning slightly, causing the sword to rotate. If you stood close, you could hear that the ordinary longsword had become somewhat transparent, as if it were wrapped in something, making the entire sword transparent.

The Wind King Barrier is a little trick created by Liu Feng based on a certain ahoge ability. It uses the power of wind to refract light, making things enveloped by the wind invisible. It sounds pretty good, but it's actually not that powerful.

Although martial artists don't possess the Wind Sense like Liu Feng, their perception of things at close range is terrifyingly high. This kind of invisibility is not very useful against true masters.

As Liu Feng slowly walked towards the Luo Family Manor, looking at the Luo Family on the city wall, he was still wondering if they would launch a large-scale arrow attack from the wall when he saw the village gate slowly open.

"So they think they've got me cornered?" Liu Feng chuckled. Based on his deductions, the strength of the Luo Family Manor far surpassed his own; entering would practically mean certain death. But so what? He had come to the Luo Family Manor with the mindset that he wouldn't hesitate to die if necessary.

Without any fear, Liu Feng entered Luo Family Manor. Wind Sense to its fullest extent, and a fat man suddenly descended from the sky. Before the fat man moved, Liu Feng had not sensed him at all, which meant that the Luo Family had already figured out a way to evade his senses.

Normally, if a fat man suddenly appeared out of nowhere and got into close combat, Liu Feng might be helpless against him. But at this moment, the fat man was just there to die. Liu Feng, who was prepared, was completely different from his usual self.

Holding an invisible sword, Liu Feng swung his hand upwards, instantly unleashing a whirlwind. The sword moved with incredible speed, even more terrifying than the previous Five Tigers Gate-Severing Blade. A white line flashed, and the fat man who was falling from the sky was instantly split into two harmonious halves. Then, the medicinal energy inside the Golden Cicada Body was rapidly released, and the wind whipped up by Liu Feng blew it into the distance.

Liu Feng twirled his sword twice, gathering his strength once more. Regardless of whether there were enemies along the way, Liu Feng slowly swung his sword. As the distance drew closer, Liu Feng's senses of the mask became clearer and clearer.

A gaunt old man walked out from the side. After the Luo Family's Golden Cicada Body cultivation reached its peak, they could shed their outer shell and reveal their true body. This true body was unlike that of a human, possessing Innate Divine Strength, copper skin and iron bones, martial arts genius, and other additional abilities. Every Luo Family who completed the transformation could achieve great success in Qi cultivation in a short period of time, and opening up acupoints was also extremely easy.

This gaunt old man was just that kind of person. After completing the Golden Cicada Body, he quickly became the peak of the Refining Aperture Realm, the strongest person below the Innate Realm. Just as he was preparing to use the Gluttony Mask as a medium to become an Innate Realm cultivator, the Gluttony Mask was stolen by that damned brat from the Third Branch.

The flaws in his cultivation of the Golden Cicada Body over the years have gradually become apparent. He was forty years old when he completed the Golden Cicada Body. At that time, his true form was young and handsome, with an elegant demeanor, like a dashing young man in his twenties.

After that, he aged at a rate that was about the same as others' three years in one year. Over the past ten years, he has looked like an old man in his sixties or seventies. In the early years, he was still constantly going out to search for the Black Heaven Secret Treasure, but in the later years, he didn't dare to go out and meet people. You know, at the beginning, his name in the martial arts world was Jade Young Master. Now, if he went out, people would probably laugh their heads off.

He stared Greed at Liu Feng. If he could kill Liu Feng and allow the Black Heaven Secret to return to the mask, the Black Heaven Secret Treasure would regain its function. He could then use the mask as a medium to break through to the Innate Realm, restore his unparalleled beauty, and become the undisputed Jade Young Master.

"Die!" the gaunt old man shouted in a slightly lisping voice, revealing his few remaining teeth. He touched his few remaining white hairs, twirled his hand, and a jade fan appeared. His inner energy surged out, enveloping the jade fan. His figure floated and rushed directly towards Liu Feng.

"A fan?" Liu Feng smiled slightly. His sensitivity to wind was so strong that he actually used a fan as a weapon. However, Liu Feng did not underestimate his opponent. His longsword followed the trajectory of the wind, and like a ghost, it rushed towards the gaunt old man.
