The Art of Chaotic Divinity

Chapter 183: Mu Qianxue!

"I-Impossible!"

The willful and arrogant little princess Qin Wanwan stared at Ling Feng wide-eyed. She was dumbfounded and completely unable to believe what she just saw.

In her heart, her cousin was already the most formidable and outstanding young genius in the entirety of Jiangdu. But that wild kid defeated my cousin?

"Let's just forget about this matter."

Liu Yunfei didn't feel too disappointed. There was always someone better out there, and he wasn’t someone who couldn't handle losing. Moreover, he noticed that Ling Feng's realm was lower than his own, so he deliberately didn't activate his true qi or open his meridian gates. He was just displaying his swordsmanship.

So, in his mind, Ling Feng had only surpassed him in swordsmanship.

But he didn't know that Ling Feng hadn't even unlocked his Primordial Lock. If Ling Feng had unlocked it, he could have easily defeated him.

However, his demeanor still impressed Ling Feng quite a bit.

Although Liu Yunfei also had a bit of the arrogance typical of young members from prominent families, he could be considered a man of his word.

Qin Wanwan bit her lip, her face alternating between red and pale. Even her cousin wasn't a match for Ling Feng. If she intervened, she would only be humiliating herself.

"At such a young age, you're so arrogant and domineering. For trivial matters, you seek to humiliate others and act imperiously. A narrow-minded person like you will hardly achieve anything in the future! Remember this well: you're merely fortunate. If you were born into poverty like this girl, do you think you'd still have the audacity to be so arrogant? One day, your tyranny and arrogance will bring utter disaster upon your family!"

With a sweep of his sleeves, Ling Feng mercilessly lectured, raining rebukes upon them without mercy.

Having grown accustomed to leading the sect, he naturally spoke with an air of imparting wisdom to the younger generation. He could effortlessly deliver admonitions.

"You...."

Reprimanded by Ling Feng, Qin Wanwan bowed her head, unable to meet his gaze.

Those cold, stern eyes drained the color from her face. It was the first time anyone had spoken to her in such a manner, leaving her feeling as though she had committed a grave mistake. Her heart trembled, and she dared not speak another word, keeping her head bowed in silence.

The warriors from the Liu family beside her stood in stunned silence. The usually arrogant and domineering Young Lady Qin had encountered her match today?

Lin Yunfei chuckled as he gently touched his nose. He understood that his cousin, despite her flaws, wasn't malicious at heart; she simply had a tendency to be overly arrogant. Ling Feng's words might serve as a valuable lesson for her, if she takes them to heart.

The rough men of the Hunting Blade Team felt a sense of satisfaction seeing that arrogant young lady bowing her head in silence.

This was the first time that these commoners had gained such an advantage when facing the members of prominent families.

"Hmph!"

With a sweep of his sleeves, Ling Feng turned around and helped up the frail young girl lying on the ground. He then cradled the small black cat in his arms, and guided both the girl and the cat back to the Hunting Blade Team's camp, gradually fading into the distance.

It wasn't until Ling Feng had walked far away that Qin Wanwan seemed to snap out of a daze, unable to believe she had been scolded by a stupid man to the point where she couldn't even retort, feeling as timid as a little chick.

"Damn it! Damn it!"

Qin Wanwan clenched her fists tightly, puffing with anger as she stormed back to her tent, muttering angrily, "You little brat, I'll make you regret it sooner or later!"

However, echoing in her mind was the lecture that Ling Feng had just given her. For the first time, she scrutinized herself, feeling puzzled. Could it be that I've really gone too far?

Liu Yunfei shrugged. He was also quite troubled by this pretty cousin of his. Seeing Qin Wanwan storm back to her tent in a huff, he didn't dare to go in and confront her. Instead, he turned his gaze toward Ling Feng's campsite and muttered to himself, "A talented young man like him actually showed up around here now? Hehe, perhaps he's also a student heading to one of the four major academies.

"However, I wonder which academy he'll actually be heading to."

On the other side of the clearing.

Xiao Li used clear water to clean the dust off the frail girl's body, while Ling Feng bandaged the wounds of the little black cat outside the tent.

The injury on the leg of the little black cat was so severe that the bone was visible and nearly crushed. Yet, the frail girl had only managed a simple bandage, not even applying the most basic herbs.

If a few more days had passed, the little black cat might have been lame for life.

Sigh! Ling Feng sighed lightly and reached out to pat the head of the little black cat. The fact that the black cat was willing to sacrifice itself to protect them showed its remarkable intelligence and admirable loyalty. Such a pet was more reliable than many so-called friends.

"Little cat, little cat, you're lucky to have met me today."

Ling Feng gently unwrapped the dirty cloth wrapped around the leg of the black cat. The wound inside had already become pus-filled and emitted an unpleasant odor.

Meow...

The black cat whimpered in pain, letting out a few soft cries. Its eyes were teary, yet it remained remarkably resilient, not moving a muscle.

"Hang in there," said Ling Feng. He cleaned the black cat's wound with water before taking out a golden needle to start treating it.

After about half an hour, Ling Feng managed to mend the black cat's bones. He then applied some Black Jade Replenishing Ointment that he had left over from before, bandaged the cat's wound, and finally sighed in relief.

The black cat moved its hind legs lightly, feeling much more comfortable. It immediately pounced into Ling Feng's arms and licked his cheek with its tongue.

"Haha, looks like you're feeling much better now, little guy!" Ling Feng said, relieved as he held the adorable black cat in his arms.

Its injuries weren't as severe as Luo Jianying's. With the healing properties of the Black Jade Replenishing Ointment, as long as it's carefully treated for a few days, it should fully recover.

However, while treating its injuries, Ling Feng noticed that this little black cat didn't seem to be an ordinary feline. It seemed to possess a certain strength within it, akin to the demonic core of a demonic beast.

Ling Feng didn't pay much attention to it. Perhaps it was just a young offspring of a demonic beast, which is nothing particularly surprising.

At this point, Xiao Li had already helped the frail young girl clean up and changed her into clean clothes.

With Xiao Li's support, the two of them took slow steps and gradually walked out of the tent.

Glancing back, Ling Feng saw the frail girl with a new attire, fit for a young maiden. Despite the simple clothes, she appeared graceful and enchanting, exuding an ethereal beauty.

Upon seeing her owner emerge, the little black cat let out a meow and leapt from Ling Feng's arms. It settled naturally on one of the girl's shoulders, its tiny paws playing with her hair as it emitted cheerful meows.

"Thank you!"

Seeing that Ling Feng had treated the injury on her little black cat's leg, the girl who had remained silent finally spoke up.

Her voice was remarkably soft and crisp, like pearls gently landing on a jade plate; pleasing to the ears, and reminiscent of celestial music.

Ling Feng paused in surprise. She hadn't spoken until now, even when being whipped by Qin Wanwan's cruel servant. He had thought that she might be mute.

"You're welcome. You're injured too. I have some medical knowledge, so I can help you with your injuries."

"No need." The girl shook her head. Her words sounded somewhat awkward, as if she hadn't spoken for a long time. Realizing her words might have been misunderstood, she hurriedly explained, "M-My injuries heal very quickly!"

Upon closer inspection, Ling Feng realized that the girl was also a martial artist, and her cultivation was not weak either; she was actually in the Pulse Formation Realm!

Moreover, from her earlier words, Ling Feng inferred that this girl possessed a highly unique physical constitution characterized by incredibly rapid healing abilities.

"Alright." Ling Feng smiled faintly and said, "I'm Ling Feng. May I know your name?"

"Me?" The thin and weak girl blinked her bright star-like eyes, as if in a daze, and said softly, "I'm called Qianxue[1] , Mu Qianxue!"

1. The name Qianxue consists of two Chinese characters that mean "lively, vigorous, etc." and "snow". Together, they can represent kindness, friendliness and elegance. ☜
