Soul Emperor Martial God-Chapter 681: Wind Dance Sword Sect

The two of them kept traveling, and a little more than a day later, had crossed through that Demon Beast Forest.

Along the way, Xiao Yi had completed most of the tasks he had accepted from Asura Hall.

He was only a Level 5 Asura Warrior, so the tasks he could take on were limited.

They were all Level 5 tasks, and what he killed were only Level 5 demonic beasts; naturally, the difficulty was very small.

Two days later, the pair had traversed more than a dozen cities.

On the road again, they passed through another Demon Beast Forest, and Xiao Yi directly completed all the tasks.

Despite some trouble now and then due to Du Youyou’s ’curiosity’, it was mostly a journey with more surprises than dangers.

Xiao Yi couldn’t help but smile helplessly.

Recalling his own early days of adventure when he was a novice, he too was curious about everything in this fascinating world.

But he was never quite like Du Youyou, touching everything and filled with great curiosity about everything.

"Xiao Yi, I think you are amazing, you know how to do everything," Du Youyou said with a look of admiration.

"It’s alright," Xiao Yi casually replied.

Du Youyou, despite being an Initial Stage Fifth-grade Alchemist,

Was not familiar with many of the slightly rare heavenly materials and earthly treasures.

Nor was she good at dealing with some extremely poisonous substances.

In terms of traveling outside, she was a complete novice.

Along the way, Xiao Yi would occasionally offer some guidance.

"The next city is Fenghua City," Xiao Yi said.

"Mm," Du Youyou’s face was full of anticipation.

"Let’s go," Xiao Yi spoke again, and they resumed their journey.

In fact, he had another reason for agreeing to participate in the alchemy competition.

He had looked over the territorial map of Fengxu Kingdom.

To leave Fengxu Kingdom, one always had to pass through the Fengxu Kingdom Capital.

So, it was just a matter of taking the alchemy competition in stride.

After participating in the alchemy competition, he could conveniently leave through the Capital.

Regardless, he still intended to make a trip to the Demon Hunting Hall Main Hall.

Unfortunately, Fengxu Kingdom only honored the Wind Shattering Hall, so there was no Demon Hunting Hall here.

...

Several hours later, the two finally arrived at Fenghua City.

For Mystic Breakthrough Realm Martial Artists, traveling was still very fast.

Having just arrived in Fenghua City, Xiao Yi headed for the Asura Hall Branch Hall.

"Wait here for me, I’m going to turn in the tasks," Xiao Yi said.

"Okay," Du Youyou nodded energetically and said, "Hurry back, Fenghua City seems quite lively."

As she spoke, Du Youyou looked around restlessly, her restless heart already thumping.

Xiao Yi shook his head and went into Asura Hall himself.

In the entire Fenghua County, there were only two Asura Hall Branch Halls, one in Breeze City and one in Fenghua City.

That was still considered good.

As far as Xiao Yi knew, in other counties of the Snow Kingdom, there was mostly only one Asura Hall Branch Hall.

Entering the Asura Hall,

Xiao Yi took out his token and turned in the tasks.

A staff member at the Task Department recorded the Task Points, provided the reward, and also returned the task token.

"Not bad, kid," the staff member, a middle-aged man with explosively muscular build that drew sidelong glances, said.

"According to the records on your token, you just took on these tasks a few days ago."

"To think you’ve completed them so quickly."

"You must have swept through the Demon Beast Forest from the Breeze City Branch Hall all the way here."

Xiao Yi smiled without a word.

Taking back his token, he accepted some more tasks from the task board and then turned to leave.

However, as soon as he stepped out of Asura Hall, he found that Du Youyou had disappeared.

"Where has this girl wandered off to now?" Xiao Yi frowned.

This was his first time in Fenghua City, and he was not familiar with the area.

Thankfully, he had remembered Du Youyou’s scent.

Tracking her scent was a piece of cake for an experienced Demon Hunter like him.

Minutes later, he found Du Youyou in the midst of a bustling crowd.

More precisely, Du Youyou was surrounded by a group of young people.

Around them, many onlookers were enjoying the scene.

Taking a closer look, among that group of young people were notably Zhong Lei, Zhong Shi, the young master of the Hu family, and the young miss of the Zhou family.

Additionally, there were five or six other youths whom Xiao Yi did not recognize.

"Brother Xu, this is the woman who severely injured my brother in public a few days ago,"

"And afterwards, she even used her family’s power to prevent me from seeking her out to settle the score."

"Hmph, I ran into her in Fenghua City today, and I must vent this anger no matter what."

Zhong Lei was saying something indignantly to a young man.

"Brother Zhong, rest assured, this rude woman, I’ll teach her a lesson for you," the young man told Zhong Lei.

At this moment, Du Youyou, surrounded by this group, had a face full of anger.

The young man, walking up to Du Youyou, said coldly, "Miss, you look quite pretty, I didn’t expect you to be so unruly."

"Apologize to Brother Zhong immediately, or else, don’t blame me for being impolite."

Du Youyou said angrily, "Why should I? I did nothing wrong."

"Hmph, so clueless, take her down," the young man commanded coldly, and the several young men following him immediately prepared to take action.

Swoosh...

A figure appeared out of thin air.

A gust of Palm Wind repelled these men.

The newcomer was Xiao Yi.

"Youyou, are you alright?" Xiao Yi asked.

"Hmm?" Xiao Yi clearly saw a bright red handprint on Du Youyou’s face.

"They hit you?" Xiao Yi asked in a cold voice.

"Wuu..." Upon seeing Xiao Yi’s arrival, the anger on Du Youyou’s face immediately turned to a look of grievance, and she almost burst into tears.

"Who are you?" the young man asked Xiao Yi, looking at him.

Next to him, Zhong Lei said, "Brother Xu, this is that woman’s accomplice."

"Oh?" the young man said, "My good sir, apologize to Brother Zhong immediately and take a hit from him."

"If Brother Zhong is willing to forgive you, we can let this go now."

"Otherwise..."

"There, it doesn’t hurt anymore," Xiao Yi soothed Du Youyou’s head, never once paying attention to the young man’s words.

"Good sir..." the young man’s voice turned severe.

Swoosh... Xiao Yi’s figure suddenly vanished on the spot.

"Hmm?" The young man furrowed his brows.

Zhong Lei narrowed his eyes and scoffed, "Trying to sneak attack? Brother Xu, he’s merely at the Mysterious Profundity Ninth Layer, don’t fear him."

No sooner had Zhong Lei finished speaking than a fierce punch sent him flying with a loud bang.

Bang... There was a loud noise.

Zhong Lei’s face ’blossomed’ as he was blown away by the punch.

"Brother!" Zhong Shi exclaimed.

"Brother Zhong," the young man furrowed his brows and then looked towards Xiao Yi.

"A mere Third Layer of Mystic Breakthrough dares to injure someone in my presence?"

Xiao Yi’s cultivation had only recovered to around the Third Layer of Mystic Breakthrough.

While the young man’s cultivation was at the Mystic Breakthrough Eighth Layer.

Swoosh, Xiao Yi again disappeared from the spot.

When he reappeared, he was right in front of the young man.

A swift kick instantly sent the young man flying.

"Puh, such strong physical strength, are you an Asura Warrior?" the young man spat out a mouthful of bloody spittle and awkwardly collapsed to the ground, asking in surprise.

Xiao Yi did not answer, nor did he bother to.

Bang, Xiao Yi threw another punch.

The ground instantly cracked open, kicking up a cloud of dust.

When the dust settled, there was a large crater on the ground.

The young man’s face was bloodied, and he lay unconscious in the crater, his life and death unknown.

"Brother Xu Nan," a few young men cried out in shock.

Cling... Clang... The several young men immediately drew their swords and pointed them towards Xiao Yi.

"Kid, we are disciples of the Wind Dance Sword Sect, you dare to injure us?" the several young men said haughtily.

"What? Wind Dance Sword Sect?" the surrounding onlookers exclaimed in shock.

"Kid, if you knew what was good for you..." The several young men wanted to say something.

Swoosh, Xiao Yi had disappeared from the spot.

Bang... Bang... Bang...

Xiao Yi’s figure turned into a blur.

Several booming sounds later, numerous young men were sent flying, spitting blood.

"With you lot, you dare claim to be Sword Dao Practitioners?" Xiao Yi dropped the cold statement and returned to Du Youyou’s side.

"Does it still hurt?"

"It doesn’t hurt anymore," Du Youyou shook her head and glared at the several Wind Dance Sword Sect disciples.

"Let’s go," Xiao Yi said indifferently, turning to leave.

Du Youyou followed.

...
