Chapter 221 - Fly the Coop
Chapter 221 Fly the Coop
Zhou Feng was lying limply on the ground as he shouted at Li Rong, “Take the Heavenly Star!”
He was the final victor of this battle, and the spoils of war, Heavenly Star, naturally belonged to him.
Zhou Feng had already entered a state of disengagement, and his injuries began to recover.
Li Rong was in a daze for a long time before she finally reacted.
“Too ruthless!’
This was the first time Li Rong had seen with her own eyes Zhou Feng’s battle style.
Was it worth it to be so crazy?
However, when she saw that Zhou Feng’s injuries were beginning to recover rapidly, Li Rong’s worried heart finally relaxed.
Zhou Feng took out all sorts of medicinal pills and poured them into his mouth. He wanted to recover his Blood Qi quickly so that his injuries could recover faster.
After all, the passive Tenacious Heart required Blood Qi.
Once the Blood Qi was insufficient, the recovery speed would be slowed down.
Fortunately, Zhou Feng had made sufficient preparations before entering the mystic realm.
He relied on the Level-2 Gluttony to constantly digest all kinds of pills and provide an endless stream of Blood Qi. Zhou Feng, whose aura was originally weak, recovered in the blink of an eye.
Other than the Human Emperor Blood in his body being completely consumed, he was no different from before the battle.
“This…”
When Li Rong saw this scene, she was so shocked that she did not know what to say.
This was a little abnormal!
Li Rong had witnessed Zhou Feng using all his strength and a self-harming technique to defeat Bai Wuyi.
He had even forced Bai Wuyi to use the power of a Divine Ability expert.
Yet, Zhou Feng acted as if nothing had happened in the blink of an eye?
How was this possible!
‘Such recovery ability… Could it be an innate divine ability?’
Li Rong did not know what to do at the moment. She just stood by the side and protected Zhou Feng.
“This is…”
After recovering from his injuries, Zhou Feng realized that he had changed slightly.
It was a very special feeling. He felt that his aura had become even more terrifying.
Zhou Feng opened his skill panel and discovered that the newly acquired passive skill had actually changed.
Invincible Aura (Layers: 2)
The passive Invincible Aura’s description had actually disappeared, and four words were in its place. Now, the passive Invincible Aura had been superimposed by two layers.
Was it because he had defeated Bai Wuyi?
Zhou Feng could not figure it out, but no matter what, winning this battle was a good thing for him.
First, he had snatched the Heavenly Star. As long as he kept it until the mystic realm closed, he could head to the City Lord’s treasury to choose an item.
This was the resource that he had fought so hard for.
As mentioned earlier, Zhou Feng wanted to live a long and ‘miserable’ life.
This did not conflict with Zhou Feng’s madness because only when one’s strength increased would they be qualified to pursue longevity.
He acted like a battle junkie in order to fight for resources for himself.
This was actually a kind of miserable life. In any case, according to Zhou Feng’s understanding, this was the kind of miserable life that belonged to him.
Zhou Feng did not approve of the kind of survival where one never caused trouble and quietly became invisible, especially in this world where cultivators were everywhere.
It was absolutely impossible to keep a low profile forever.
If one was extraordinary, others would discover them sooner or later. There were many smart people in this world.
The modus operandi of making others think one was a piece of trash until they had the power to slap them in the face took a lot of effort.
In any case, Zhou Feng couldn’t do it. Wouldn’t that be a cheap move?
It would be better to display most of his strength in such an overbearing manner.
After all, even if Zhou Feng displayed his full strength, there were still monsters who were more powerful than him. In the eyes of those disciples from large clans, Zhou Feng was a wandering cultivator with good talent.
A tree that stood out in the forest would be destroyed by the wind? Don’t even think about it. Zhou Feng simply couldn’t reach that level.
On the contrary, it was Zhou Feng’s behavior that made others think that this was normal.
This was because Zhou Feng’s tyrannical behavior was a little rough in the eyes of others.
But it was very in line with the style of a wandering cultivator. Wandering cultivators were like this, thinking of all ways to get resources.
On the contrary, the more one concealed their abilities and hid from the limelight, the easier it would be to attract the big clans’ attention. ‘There will always be wicked people who want to harm me.’
This was the thought that most large clans had always had.
If one concealed their abilities, the large clans would take it as if said person was plotting against them in the dark.
Regarding this point, Zhou Feng could be considered to have pondered over it thoroughly.
Of course, his actions seemed crude and simple to let everyone look down on him. Such a boorish person would sooner or later be defeated in someplace.
This was a thought that many people had after seeing Zhou Feng’s style of doing things.
With this thought, he could better get rid of more people.
Zhou Feng would let others think he was a talented boorish person who fought like a maniac for the resources to improve. By the time someone discovered something was wrong, he would have already obtained new passive skills and improved himself.
At that time, it would be too late for others to target him.
Finally, in addition to the above, Zhou Feng also had a crisis expectation.
To put it simply, if he continued to stay in one place for a long time, his life would be in danger.
As such, Zhou Feng would escape from this place and find a safe place to hide first.
Zhou Feng had done this back then in the Tri-Gu Sect.
The Tri-Gu Sect had been too dangerous for Zhou Feng, who had just started cultivating. That was why he had thought of ways to escape.
As for why he stayed in Heavenly Star City, it was because this city was relatively safe for Zhou Feng, and he could obtain many cultivation resources.
Unfortunately, it was time to leave Heavenly Star City.
‘What a pity. I have to find time to leave Heavenly Star City…’
Zhou Feng was calculating in his heart.
He felt that an undercurrent had been surging around him the past few days as if many people were staring at him from the shadows.
The aura of danger had quietly descended.
Zhou Feng had also formed a grudge with Bai Wuyi, and it was not an exaggeration to say he had offended the Bai Clan.
Under the circumstances that Bai Wuyi wasn’t dead yet, the Bai Clan would definitely make a move against him.
Moreover, this case was different from the Li Clan. Zhou Feng had seriously injured Bai Wuyi, and the Bai Clan had a well-deserved cause.
They would not be like Li Clan, who would not deal with a lone cultivator for the sake of their reputation.
‘I have to escape as soon as possible!’
Zhou Feng was already planning to escape.
After leaving the Heavenly Star Mystic Realm and going to the City Lord to choose an item, Zhou Feng would depart from Heavenly Star City quietly.
As for where Zhou Feng would go, he had already thought of it. He planned to leave Heavenly Star City for the time being and return to the area where the Tri-Gu Sect was to cultivate and take revenge.
Zhou Feng would never forget his hardships in the Tri-Gu Sect. Had he not obtained all sorts of passive skills, he would not have lived past the day they planted the Bloodthirsty Gu to him.
There was also that Old Demon Gu—he had always wanted to devour him.
Who knew who would devour whom when he returned?
As for whether or not he would return to Heavenly Star City after this, that would depend on Zhou Feng’s cultivation.
In any case, it was impossible to stay in one place all the time, for the sake of his future cultivation path.
Zhou Feng had to find information about the Human Emperor Scripture. He didn’t want to stop at the Purple Mansion realm.
