Chapter 84: Who Is This Woman

Chen Fei pondered for a moment before deciding to follow Qian Lindu.

In close combat, Chen Fei’s cultivation level limited him to showcasing his strength mainly against opponents of the same level. If he were to face someone in the Marrow Tempering realm, he would likely have to rely on sneak attacks.

However, his Soul Chasing Step allowed him to move freely. Given the circumstances, how could Chen Fei remain indifferent when he knew that Guo Linshan was in danger?

“Didn’t I ask you to gather the others?” Qian Lindu turned around, sensing someone behind him. He frowned upon seeing Chen Fei.

“Martial Uncle Qian, my movement technique is not bad. Perhaps I can be of help,” Chen Fei whispered.

Qian Lindu was about to speak when Chen Fei stepped forward and passed by him, determined to join the battle.

Qian Lindu’s words caught in his throat. Chen Fei’s movement technique was indeed extraordinary. Even if the situation became chaotic, it would be enough to protect themselves and potentially aid Guo Linshan.

The two of them stood at the edge of the battlefield, observing from a distance. They noticed a cave in the vicinity, likely the hideout of the Divine Flame Sect.

“It’s the Big Dipper Tower,” Qian Lindu expressed surprise at their early arrival.

“Martial Uncle Qian, Senior Brother Guo is there,” Chen Fei said, scanning the scene and spotting Guo Linshan engaged in combat. Guo Linshan wielded a broadsword, fending off the Divine Flame Sect disciples, leaving a trail of corpses in his wake.

“We are on the verge of victory. The Divine Flame Sect lacks experts here,” Qian Lindu assessed the situation below and swiftly descended, his figure resembling an eagle.

Chen Fei wielded his sword and joined the battle, protecting Guo Linshan with his Starry Night Sword, deflecting incoming attacks.

“Junior Brother, you’re back,” Guo Linshan exclaimed upon seeing Chen Fei and Qian Lindu. He smiled, but his expression froze as he noticed Chen Fei’s sword technique—Starry Night Sword.

Guo Linshan blinked, confused. If his memory served him right, he had only recently taught Chen Fei the Starry Night Sword a few days ago.

Had it been ten days already?

Guo Linshan felt a sense of haziness, unable to recall the exact timeframe. However, he was certain that it had been an incredibly short period. It was so short that Guo Linshan began to doubt his own perception of time.

Perhaps the intensity of the battle had caused him to have illusions, making him believe that Chen Fei had cultivated the Starry Night Sword to Great Completion within a few days.

“Senior Brother Guo, be careful!” Chen Fei shouted as he deflected an attack aimed at Guo Linshan. In response, Guo Linshan roared like a tiger, swiftly rushing forward and striking down a Divine Flame Sect disciple.

The enemy hadn’t even landed when he spat out blood mid-air. By the time he hit the ground, his breath had already ceased.

“Impressive!” Chen Fei inwardly praised. With the fifth rank of the Origin Connection Technique maximized and the support of the Tremendous Strength and Iron Bone’s characteristics, Guo Linshan’s strength surpassed that of martial artists at the same level.

If Chen Fei were to face Guo Linshan’s sword strike, even with the Starry Night Sword, the result would likely be the same as his encounter with Shi Xueqin. He would struggle to parry and would have to retreat.

Of course, it wasn’t that Guo Linshan was stronger than Shi Xueqin. They simply excelled in different areas. If Guo Linshan were to face an expert like Shi Xueqin, he would need to advance to the Visceral Tempering realm at the very least to determine who was stronger.

With Qian Lindu’s assistance, the resistance of the Divine Flame Sect quickly crumbled, and the battle concluded within a short span.

“Many thanks to the Primordial Sword Sect for your help!” The representative of the Big Dipper Tower stepped forward and greeted Qian Lindu. They conversed for a while before starting to search for any traces left behind by the Divine Flame Sect, hoping to find valuable information.

However, just like the Divine Flame Sect’s previous actions, any captives were poisoned on the spot. The location of the poison remained unknown, even if their mouths were sealed shut. The scene was meticulously cleaned, leaving no trace of information.

The disciples from the Primordial Sword Sect arrived late and were astonished upon witnessing the aftermath.

An hour later, at the Primordial Sword Sect’s encampment:

“I observed for a while and intended to take the risk and investigate further, but before I could do anything, the Divine Flame Sect seemed to receive some news and began to retreat,” Guo Linshan recalled the situation and continued, “However, as they were retreating, the people from Big Dipper Tower appeared, and a battle broke out. I went to assist, and that’s when I saw Martial Uncle Qian arrive.”

“Retreat? It’s likely the demoness went back to report,” Qian Lindu commented gravely.

“Demoness?” Guo Linshan was puzzled.

“On my way back, I encountered a demoness. Fortunately, she was injured, and I managed to escape,” Chen Fei explained from the side, leading Guo Linshan to realize the connection.

“Alright, everyone is exhausted. Let’s rest. I have already sent a message to the sect about the situation here. Reinforcements should be on their way,” Qian Lindu dismissed the group with a wave of his hand.

Given the numerous casualties caused by the Divine Flame Sect, it was imperative to request additional assistance from the sect. Otherwise, everyone present would be in grave danger.

The disciples dispersed, and Guo Linshan pulled Chen Fei aside.

“Senior Brother Guo, what’s the matter?” Chen Fei asked, slightly perplexed. “Have you truly mastered the Starry Night Sword to Great Completion?” Guo Linshan whispered.

“No, Senior Brother must have seen it wrongly. How can one cultivate a sword technique so quickly?” Chen Fei shook his head.

Guo Linshan rolled his eyes. He had witnessed it with his own eyes, yet Chen Fei denied it.

“Senior Brother, I have only grasped a few moves of the Starry Night Sword, not all of them,” Chen Fei casually demonstrated, summoning a few sword shields around him.

Unlike Paragons, whose bodies were enveloped in swords and shields, Chen Fei’s manifestation was limited to a specific number of locations.

Guo Linshan blinked, having only taken a few glances previously and thus feeling uncertain. Nevertheless, it made sense that Chen Fei had only mastered a few moves to perfection.

“Understandable. Your cultivation speed is still impressive, just not as exaggerated as before,” Guo Linshan remarked.

“Senior Brother, do you recognize this person?” Chen Fei retrieved a piece of paper and handed it to Guo Linshan. On it was a portrait of Shi Xueqin, drawn based on his memory. contemporary romance

“Who is this woman? She looks quite stunning,” Guo Linshan commented, gazing at the portrait.

“The witch who pursued me,” Chen Fei whispered.

“Then the other party may have disguised themselves,” Guo Linshan frowned.

“I don’t believe she disguised herself,” Chen Fei shook his head.

“How do you know?”

Guo Linshan looked up at Chen Fei, nearly taking a step back in fright. At that moment, Chen Fei’s face bore a resemblance to his own, as if they were blood brothers.

“Because I possess the knowledge of disguise, I can discern it,” Chen Fei explained with a smile. He wiped his face, reverting to his original appearance..
