In one of the mountain forests in Baiqu Gorge, the trees and grass have frozen into a layer of ice, and the cold air lingers and fills the land.
Lin Ran stood in the centre, looking up at the starry night sky, his chest heaving, his eyes filled with shock, and it was only after a long time that he gradually calmed down.
“Obviously not at the Heavenly Martial Realm, yet he can walk through the air, could it be that he has mastered the mastery of the Old Man of the Sky?”
Lin Ran frowned tightly and did not continue to chase after him, instead he walked backwards, it was not that he wanted to chase after him, after seeing all of Chu Feng’s tricks, he hated to take everything of Chu Feng for himself, it was just a pity that there was nothing he could do in the face of Chu Feng who could walk through the air.
When Lin Ran returned to where Gong Luyun was, he found that the claw marks and the huge pit left by Chu Feng were still there, but they had changed from when he had left earlier, and six tiny pillars of water were spurting out from the huge pit and the claw marks.
“That finger of his was so strong that it had penetrated the water flow underneath this ground.” Lin Ran’s brow furrowed as his gaze was filled with shock.
“Grandpa, could it be that what that person used, was really a legendary secret technique?” Seeing this, Gong Luyun came over and asked, for he still remembered the terrifying might of Chu Feng when he had just executed this move.
“Although I’ve never seen it with my own eyes, I have studied secret techniques for a long time, and both in terms of the might and the power, what that grey-robed gentleman was performing was definitely a secret technique without a doubt.”
“Moreover, this person not only possesses a secret technique, but also a very powerful stance martial technique.” Lin Ran was filled with envy whenever he thought of Chu Feng, treading in the air in front of him.
Thinking that his cultivation level was so high, he could have completely suppressed Chu Feng, but helplessly, the means that Chu Feng mastered were so subtle that it really made him itch.
“Still mastering other means? Just what means are they?” Gong Luyun expressed his curiosity.
“You shouldn’t ask about that, after all, those are other people’s means, but if I am able to obtain the secret techniques in the future, I will definitely pass them on to you.”
“Lu Yun, although your talent is not bad, you are not quite top in the Kyushu Continent, you must do things in moderation, that grey robed gentleman would not strike at you for no reason, I think he must have something to do with that Chu Feng, you should be more careful in the future.” Lin Ran reminded.
“That mysterious grey-robed gentleman, has something to do with Chu Feng?” Despite feeling that something was fishy, Gong Luyun was still unable to accept it after thinking that the grey-robed gentleman who had mastered so many special means was related to Chu Feng.
“Although it is a guess, it is highly likely, that grey-robed gentleman sneaked into this place, and it would be difficult for me to catch him, and even if I report it to the royal family, I think there is nothing I can do to him.”
“And according to the rules, with our status, although we can escort you in, we can’t stay long to avoid him striking at you again, so you might as well give up this hunt.” Lin Ran said.
“Grandpa, this ……” Hearing these words, Gong Luyun’s face changed greatly.
“There’s nothing about this and that, is your little life important, or that little bit of Xuan medicine? Do you want to turn into a pile of rotten flesh and blood like your group of foxes and friends?”
Lin Ran scolded sternly, then added, “With the old man around, are you still afraid of not having cultivation resources? Don’t worry, I have already applied to the Lord of the House to allow you to enter my Qilin King’s House, and when the time comes, all of my abilities can be passed on to you.”
“Thank you, grandfather, for your great kindness.” Hearing these words, Gong Luyun immediately turned from superior to happy, and was overjoyed, the Qilin King’s House was the true hegemon of Qingzhou.
“Go back, I’ll protect you secretly.” Lin Ran smiled and waved his hand, very amiable, his gaze full of compassion.
And Gong Luyun didn’t dare to retort, and with that joy, he walked towards the road he came from, without a single worry with Lin Ran secretly escorting him.
And just after Gong Luyun had gone far away, Lin Ran took out a letter from his bosom, which he opened with a few lines of elegant script on it.
“Lord Lin Ran, do you still remember the woman who saved your life and lost her body to you outside Xuanwu City twenty years ago?”
“Although I as the wife of the Lord of Xuanwu City, Lu Yun is my child with you, he is not Gong Changshan’s son, but your son.”
“Originally, I did not want to tell you about this, after all, to you, a woman like me is not worth mentioning, but Lu Yun is after all your own flesh and blood.”
“Gong Changshan was so stubborn that he sent Lu Yun to that second-class sect of the Green Dragon Sect to train, which wasted Lu Yun’s good talent.
After reading it, Lin Ran fondly merged the letter paper and did not put it into his Qiankun bag, but tucked it into his arms, saying wistfully:
“I have searched for you for twenty years, but I never thought that not only would I find you now, but you have also given me such a surprise, don’t worry, I won’t let our son, remain in obscurity.”
And while Lin Ran was nostalgically thinking of his beloved, Chu Feng was still walking in the air, at this moment he had already arrived at the clouds, running in the clouds like a dragon, going up and down, constantly tumbling.
“Haha, this is the feeling of walking in the air, it’s so cool.” 梦琪ノ衷; 天然輯
Chu Feng was ecstatic, although this was not the first time he had flown into the sky, compared to sitting on a white-headed eagle, it was obvious that it was more enjoyable for him to roam the sky at will by himself.
“Eh? What is that?” Suddenly, by the light of the moon, Chu Feng noticed that a mountain peak had appeared in front of him, and the height of that mountain peak actually did not reach the clouds.
Moreover, at the top of that mountain peak, Chu Feng actually saw lights, and faintly, there seemed to be a building, and when he got closer, he indeed found a temple there, and there were actually people living there.
This inevitably took Chu Feng by surprise, for he found that the mountain peak was unusually steep, simply standing straight up, like a staircase to heaven.
With such a shape and such a height, it would be difficult to climb here without a certain level of cultivation, let alone building a temple on top of this mountain peak.
After all, this Hundred Quills Gorge is a forbidden place, only open for a dozen days a year, after which no one is allowed to step in.
