Martial Arts Overlord-Chapter 720 - 718: Kill You in One Move!

Hearing Yan Hu's words and seeing his slightly awkward expression, Luo Feng smiled faintly and said, "I'm also heading to the Imperial City. We can travel together."

At these words, Yan Hu's face lit up with joy, and he chuckled, "That would be perfect."

It was his first time coming to the Imperial City of the Canglan Dynasty, and he was unfamiliar with the area. He had been so focused on chasing Luo Feng that he had now completely lost his bearings.

"Let's go."

Luo Feng had already seen through the other man's intentions but didn't expose them. He continued forward with Qing Ling.

They were only a little more than ten li from the Imperial City, Tianbi City. The surrounding Demon Beasts had long since been cleared out by other Martial Artists. They traveled a considerable distance, yet Luo Feng didn't sense the slightest trace of any Demon Beast.

"We'll reach Tianbi City in about an hour," Luo Feng said, taking out a map he had acquired and studying it.

"Azure Sky City of the Canglang Dynasty is renowned for its waterside beauty, said to be unparalleled under heaven. I wonder what it's like," Yan Hu mused.

Just as the trio was about to continue their journey, the two Red Flame Tigers accompanying them suddenly reared up. Their eyes, glinting with a somber light, stared into the distance behind them, and low growls rumbled in their throats.

"Hmm?"

Noticing the change in the Red Flame Tigers, Yan Hu stopped and said in a deep voice, "Someone's coming. I'm afraid they don't have good intentions."

"Yes."

Luo Feng also stopped, squinting as he looked back. He too sensed an exceedingly powerful aura rapidly approaching them.

WHOOSH!

In an instant, a figure appeared in their line of sight.

This person rode upon a stream of azure light, swift as lightning. His passage tore the air, creating layers of deafening sonic booms—an astonishing display of power.

"Stop right there!"

From several li away, the figure's chilling gaze locked onto Luo Feng as he launched a punch from afar.

Instantly, an incomparably fierce azure fist projection tore through the air. Wherever it passed, the surrounding space roiled violently like water, and a terrifying, chilling fissure extended straight toward them.

A Martial Artist at the peak of the fifth level of the Spiritual Rotation Realm!

Luo Feng's eyebrows rose. He stepped forward with his right foot and threw a punch in response.

BOOM!

The two entirely different fist energies collided midway, both shattering and dissipating into nothingness.

WHOOSH!

As the dust settled, a figure stood ten paces before Luo Feng.

The man was tall and powerfully built, his eyes sharp with a hidden glint, coldly observing Luo Feng as if sizing up a dead man. "Kid, I've finally caught up with you."

Luo Feng's expression remained unchanged as he looked at the man and said, "If I'm not mistaken, you're from Yellow Mountain Town's Townlord Mansion."

"You're quite composed." The middle-aged man looked somewhat surprised, then sneered, "That's right. I am Xu Tai, Captain of the Guard from Yellow Mountain Town's Townlord Mansion."

Luo Feng hadn't expected the people from the Townlord Mansion to arrive so quickly. He said calmly, "What business do you have with me?"

"Why play dumb when you already know?" Xu Tai snorted coldly, his gaze fixed on Luo Feng as he smirked. "You injured people from our Townlord Mansion and even gravely wounded the Young Master. Did you think you could just walk away unscathed? You're coming with me."

Saying this, Xu Tai made a casual gesture with his hand.

WHOOSH! 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

A pale green vortex instantly appeared, emitting a terrifying suction force that uprooted the surrounding grass and trees.

Immediately, Luo Feng felt his body become somewhat difficult to control, as if he were about to be pulled toward Xu Tai.

"Sever!"

A fierce glint flashed in Luo Feng's eyes. Astonishing Saber Qi extended from his palm, slicing the pale green vortex apart. The terrifying suction vanished instantly without a trace.

He blocked it again... Seeing Luo Feng easily deal with the pale green vortex, Xu Tai's brow furrowed slightly.

His first punch, launched from such a distance, retained only sixty to seventy percent of its power by the time it reached Luo Feng. It wasn't surprising that it was blocked. However, for the azure vortex moments ago, he had used his full strength. He'd thought capturing the youth before him would be effortless, yet unexpectedly, the boy hadn't moved an inch.

At this moment, Yan Hu, who had been silent, stepped forward. He glanced at Xu Tai, cracked his knuckles, and grinned at Luo Feng, "Want me to take care of him for you?"

Hearing Yan Hu's words, Xu Tai's expression changed.

When one's luck is down, even drinking cool water feels like it will get stuck in your teeth. His worst fear had come to pass. This young man from the Wild Tribe, capable of commanding two Red Flame Tigers, must also be a fifth-level Spiritual Rotation Realm Martial Artist. Although he was confident he could defeat Luo Feng, facing two fifth-level Spiritual Rotation Realm Martial Artists simultaneously would undoubtedly be dangerous.

"There's no need."

Just then, a cool voice spoke. Luo Feng directed Qing Ling to step aside. His figure flashed, and he appeared before Xu Tai, calmly stating, "I alone am enough to handle him."

"Alright." Yan Hu glanced at Luo Feng, crossed his arms, and stood quietly to one side, adopting an air of indifference.

Hearing this exchange, Xu Tai, who had been feeling somewhat pleased, saw his expression immediately darken.

He wasn't a fool; how could he not understand the underlying meaning in their words—that his strength was far inferior to Luo Feng's?

With a cold smile, Xu Tai said icily, "Such arrogance! However, you'll soon regret saying that. Make your choice: come with me to the Townlord Mansion now, or I'll personally escort you."

Luo Feng glanced at Xu Tai, a hint of disdain on his face. He reached behind him, drew his steel saber, and said coldly, "With your abilities, you're not qualified to say such things."

If the opponent were truly a Martial Artist at the peak of the fifth level of the Spiritual Rotation Realm, Luo Feng would have some reservations. But judging from the faint Yuan Qi fluctuations emanating from Xu Tai, this person had likely only recently broken through to the fifth level of the Spiritual Rotation Realm and was nothing to fear.

"Hmph, stubborn fool! Let's see if you can block this punch!" With a roar, Xu Tai stomped heavily on the ground.

BOOM!

The earth trembled as Xu Tai's figure shot into the air, lunging towards Luo Feng.

"Wild Wind Heartrending Fist!"

While still airborne, Xu Tai punched downwards. The mighty and fierce fist projection scraped a layer off the nearby grass, descending upon Luo Feng with an overwhelming aura.

Facing the approaching Xu Tai, Luo Feng narrowed his eyes slightly. Energy currents swirled around his body as he executed Sky Cloud Step, his entire being leaping away.

BOOM!

Xu Tai's punch slammed into the ground, creating countless ripples and leaving a large crater.

Huh? He's gone! Not seeing Luo Feng's figure, Xu Tai's expression changed drastically. He hurriedly turned, only to see an illusory figure charging toward him.

So fast! Xu Tai's face tensed. He might have been a bit careless, but the fact that his opponent could appear behind him so silently was spine-chilling.

Not daring to delay, dazzling azure Gang Qi erupted from Xu Tai's right fist as he punched out again.

"I'll kill you in one strike!"

Luo Feng appeared behind Xu Tai, a sharp glint in his eyes. Nine sun-like orbs of golden Yuan Qi materialized behind him, blazing brilliantly as he slashed his saber.

SWISH!

A colossal blade of white flame appeared, illuminating half the sky.

"Golden Crow Great Annihilation Saber!"

Seeing Luo Feng execute his Saber Technique, Xu Tai's expression changed drastically. Caught completely off guard, he could only brace himself and retaliate.

PFFT!

The fist projection was instantly obliterated by the giant flaming blade. From Xu Tai's neck, a line of blood spurted three to four meters high.

"You really are Luo..." Staring wide-eyed at Luo Feng, Xu Tai opened his mouth. His head then tilted, slid from his neck, and fell to the ground...
