Chapter 300: Returning Home
Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu
Bei Feng had reached the bottom of the pit which led to the outside world. The warm rays of the sun cascaded down, gently bathing the dark pit with light. As he stepped into the open space, Bei Feng closed his eyes and enjoyed the feeling of being wrapped in the comfortable sunlight.
Tens of seconds passed before he slowly opened his eyes again. He had spent a little too much time in the darkness of the underground cavern this time. Even for him, it was a little difficult to get used to seeing sunlight.
The distance from where he stood, to the surface, was roughly 200 meters. For normal people, the height would be extremely difficult to scale without the aid of some special equipments.
But quite apparently, Bei Feng was different. He gauged the surroundings for a moment before bending his knees in preparation to jump. With a single leap, he rose several tens of meters into the air! At the peak of his jump, his feet stepped on a protruding rock on the side of the pit and using the rock as a launching pit, he leapt upward again!
The legendary "flying on eaves and running on walls" skill depicted in numerous Wuxia stories was simply this. With a few leaps, Bei Feng easily reached the surface area!
The nearby mountain peak looked exceptionally desolate, as if a huge battle had occurred there. However, there was no sign of any humans there, either. It seemed that all the martial practitioners had left long ago.
Bei Feng's guess was that the black Demonic Beast had returned again, and the Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts had fought against it.
At this time, the sun was blazing high up in the sky, and its rays were exceptionally dazzling. Countless trees and plants had started to put forth buds, and the scenery was filled with green.
With the sun on his back, a person glided rapidly through the air like an eagle, landing softly in front of Bei Feng like a feather. This person appeared to be rather agitated, as if he wanted to run up and hold Bei Feng. But ultimately, he still held himself back from the impulse.
Bei Feng regarded Qin Wufa and fell silent for a moment before saying, "You've broken through?"
Qin Wufa calmed his agitation and excitement as he asked, "En, what happened to those few guys?"
"Dead."
At the time that Bei Feng took out the golden flying dagger, it was because he had sensed the killing intent in Yi Zheng. Otherwise, he would not have revealed his flying dagger to them in the first place!
Although Yi Zheng had masked his intentions well, Bei Feng was a body cultivator. His five senses were extremely sensitive and along with the growth of his five senses, he could feel a sixth sense slowly awakening!
While he would not be able to sense the dangerous thoughts targeted at him if the distance was too large, if someone tried to scheme against him in front of him, then it was not too possible for him to fall for those plots!
Of course, this was not an absolute. If the other party also had a similar ability and Bei Feng's cultivation was not too much above him, their senses would cancel each other out, and he would not be able to sense the danger.
"En, it's good that they're dead. You must guard this secret well and never reveal it to anyone! If for some reason it was exposed, and you do not have the ability to kill the opponent, you must inform me immediately!" Qin Wufa warned seriously.
"Alright. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first."
Bei Feng nodded and stepped out lightly, quickly leaving.
Although he had not managed to break through to Xiantian late stage, his control over his strength had improved an entire level. While he could not do something as exaggerated as running atop the grass, he would no longer leave a deep pit on the ground with his every step.
As Bei Feng was leaving, the other elders of the Qin Clan also arrived. With a few quick flashes, he disappeared from the area.
Qin Siguo looked at the calm Qin Wufa and asked curiously, "Clan Leader, who was that?"
It was really strange how Qin Wufa's mood changed so drastically. A moment ago, he was like a volcano ready to erupt. But now, he seemed completely fine.
"That's my son, the Young Clan Leader of the Qin Clan!"
Qin Wufa was in a visibly good mood. A gentle smile lingered on his face as he looked into the distance.
This son of his had really surprised him greatly. He was obviously only in the Xiantian realm, but he was already able to face four Fake Dan experts and kill them single-handedly!
Noticing that Qin Wufa had fallen into silence once again after speaking, the others could only look at each other helplessly. Qin Wufa was obviously unwilling to elaborate, and they were in no position to pursue the topic.
"It's not necessarily impossible for my Qin Clan to see the day where three Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts are present in the same age!" Qin Wufa mumbled excitedly. Following that, he brought the bunch of confused Qin Clan elders with him and departed.
Bei Feng's luck was rather poor. As Mt Qing Ling had been sealed off, there were no taxis on the road at all. There would barely be a single car passing by from time to time, and the scene looked extremely bleak as compared to the bustling traffic from before.
Bei Feng walked slowly along the empty road with an expression of calm on his face. Although he was said to be walking slowly, that was only in relation to the speed and manner of his steps. In terms of actual speed, it was not slow at all. Every step would take him several dozens of meters forward!
At this moment, a Chevrolet was cruising down the road at a leisurely pace. The driver seemed to be a careful person, and the car was only traveling at about 50 kilometers an hour.
A couple was joking and laughing, speaking sweet nothings to each other as they sat in the car. The signage ahead indicated that there would be a series of turns ahead.
The man was driving the car and out of habit, he would glance at the rear mirror from time to time. And this time, he saw a human figure appearing briefly behind the car, and then disappearing.
"Darling, I think I saw a ghost! It looked like someone was chasing behind our car!" The man looked dumbly at the rear mirror again before turning to the lady beside him. The fatigue from not resting well the past few days and the pressure from work must have caught up to him. How could a human run as fast as a car?
"Hubby, I saw that ghost too... he's standing right in front of us!"
The girl rubbed her eyes vigorously, completely ignoring the fact that her makeup was getting ruined.
The man looked over in the direction of the outstretched finger of his wife, only to see a figure dressed in ancient white robes with long black hair fluttering wildly in the air. The gender of this ghost seemed to be indeterminable, which made it all the more terrifying. At this moment, the ghost seemed to be floating along the road, and every light step would take it a large distance ahead.
His eyes wide with disbelief, the man looked at the speedometer on his dashboard again. There was no mistake. It clearly indicated that they were traveling at 55 km/h!
But at this speed, not only were they not closing in on this white figure, it was even pulling away from them!
"GHOST!!!!"
The couple exchanged a glance as they felt their back turn chilly. After a brief moment of silence, two high pitched screams rang out through the mountain!
"JI!"
The car skidded to a halt and the the couple fell shivering into each other's arms.
Bei Feng was completely oblivious to how much fright he had caused to the two. It took him another hour of casual walking to reach the city area. From there, he managed to book a taxi to the Blue Spirit Mountain villas.
By now, the guards at the villa estate were already very familiar with Bei Feng, and he was let in without any troubles.
The reason he was recognized so easily was not because of his looks. Rather, it was his dressing! In the entire villa estate, only he dressed in such a queer manner.
Seeing that Bei Feng's car had driven further along, one of the security guards turned to his partner and chuckled. "Hur hur, those rich people really know how to enjoy doing weird stuff."
"Alright, that's enough of envying. We are better off minding our business and doing this honest work. But seriously, the way that person carries himself is really exceptional. Those ancient style robes truly look pretty good on him."
The two slowly walked away as they chatted.
"Hou!"
Bei Feng had merely stepped foot on the mountainous path and had not even entered the villa's precinct when a huge shadow rushed out and pounced on him.
In a few short minutes, his white robes were covered in black, soggy doggy paw prints.
The huge figure naturally belonged to the Cerberus. Insatiable and Black Hole had smelt Bei Feng's scent from a long way, and had rushed out like a bundle of excitement!
Although the Cerberus had grown much stronger as a whole, Insatiable and Black Hole had not changed their characters. They were still the same silly little dogs he had picked up.
In the minds of these two little fellows whose intellectual ability was not fully unlocked yet, they only knew that they had not seen Bei Feng for a long time. Thus, when they finally saw him returning, they immediately became incomparably excited!
