Chapter 1415: Chapter 1514: Somewhat Believable
"I heard this is a fearsome beast from Mang Mountain. It’s so powerful that it can destroy the sky and Earth. Even the Sword Master was defeated and had to flee, barely escaping with his life."
"The great beast of Mang Mountain..." Qin Feng suddenly widened his eyes. Is it the Time Beast, the golden and black bird? If it’s true, the failure of the Eastern Pastoralists is no mistake. It is definitely the top king among beasts, even the King Beast of the Void is far from being a match for it. This legend seems somewhat credible."
"Hmph, don’t think like that. The Sword Saint Master is very strong. He’s so powerful that even Zhuang Sunx, Dan Tai, and other Five Great Forces dare not provoke him," muttered the old man in linen clothing again, as if he were a staunch admirer of Dongfang Mubai.
"Even the Five Forces don’t dare provoke him?" Qin Feng raised an eyebrow.
The linen-clad old man proudly said, "You know, the Sword Saint Master can consecutively defeat leaders of various tribes. His power is so strong, surpassing any of the Five Powers. He’s broken through the Holy Land for over 400 years, deciding to establish himself and accept disciples for over 200 years. In these two centuries, the Sword Dao Conference has been held over twenty times, attracting hundreds of Sword Dao masters to enter the halls of Sword Dao. After more than twenty years of development, Sword Pavilion now hosts four to five thousand top swordsmen, including many top swordsmen across the Holy Land and Outer Domain." "Alright," Qin Feng nodded.
After a year and a half of practicing swordsmanship, he had come to understand the boundless Domain:
The boundless territory is divided into 108 districts. These areas, like the Five Great Forces’ headquarters, occupy several million li of land, even possibly tens of millions of li. Such areas should be called large regions. Similar large territories include the boundless wilderness and Tianjian.
Areas over 500,000 li but under 1,000,000 li are considered medium territories.
Anything under 500,000 li is a small piece of land. Like Qin Feng’s hometown, the Five Star Sect, Rich Land, and Shura are situated on territory just about 100,000 li. Currently, the territory has only 100,000 li, very small.
Different Domains, different powers.
Powerful territories, not to mention the experts of Extreme Domain, even the experts of the Holy Domain would be numerous. Weaker territories would be like Qin Feng’s hometown, where Tong Liuzi just broke through the limits of the Domain, becoming the strongest in the Domain.
In most of these areas, humans and beasts coexist. Different beasts live in different mountains or rivers. Humans live in cities and villages. Even if there are occasional intersections or conflicts, humans and beasts will never duel. In the human world, there are five largest forces, almost all with territory under their control or dominated by their vassals. But there are also territories ruled by some top overlords. These overlords can make the Five Forces wary, not daring to rashly act, their power evident.
Qin Feng sighed, smiled wryly, "With the Sword Saint Order, you can participate in the Sword Blade Conference. Once you stand out in the conference, you’ll become part of the Sword Pavilion, then you’ll be in the core upper echelon of the world’s top powers, second only to the Five Great Powers. No wonder you would have a good life, but no wonder you killed your wife. Now, I fear it’s my turn."
The linen-clad old man said, "To be fair, I also think it’s unfair for you to die, but you must be killed."
Qin Feng suddenly laughed leisurely, "To be fair, do you think killing me is easy?"
The iron fist of Old Man Ma Yi was about to rise. But now he couldn’t help but let it fall. Staring at Qin Feng for a long time, his lips gradually curved into a smile, "Killing you isn’t easy, but someone like you can live until now."
Suddenly, a crisp, sweet laugh came from outside the door, like wind chimes in the breeze. Those who heard it were speechless, not knowing how much better it was than the linen-clad old man’s wife’s voice.
"To be fair, do you think he’s poisoned now?"
The linen-clad old man was stunned and turned to look. He saw a girl in green clothes standing at the small kitchen door. The girl wasn’t tall, but she had a beautiful curve and a pure smile, like winter sunshine, making people greatly fond of her.
Her eyes were clear, her cheeks full of laughter, walking leisurely, murmuring, "A true Master Yuanjing, if he thinks no one will suspect him when he’s just a tavern owner in such a place, then how foolish he is. Brother Qin, what do you say?"
Qin Feng laughed, "Honestly, he hid things well, but not better than Adong. Though I can’t see the depth, I know his sword is terrifying. He’s a scary person."
Then he shook his head, "When you play dumb in front of someone understanding while your wife praises other women’s brilliance, no matter who did these three things, they’ll regret it."
Tiantian had one model left to learn from Qin Feng, she shook her head and sighed, "Unfortunately, most regrets come too late!"
The man in linen clothes just stared at them dumbfoundedly before rushing over to grab the wine jug.
Qin Feng chuckled, "Don’t bother looking. It’s really poisoned in the wine. Not fake at all."
The linen-clad old man rasped, "Then you drink too!"
Qin Feng smiled faintly, "Though I drank, I coughed it all out. In fact, I don’t usually cough."
The linen-clad old man shivered and collapsed onto the ground with a thud.
"Ah, it seems you can’t get the Sword Saint Order after all." Qin Feng shook his head again, sighing.
"I’ll kill you!" Ma Yi the old man roared, smashing Qin with three fists.
For the past 30 years, he’d basically stopped practicing to hide his identity. But he’d broken through First-level, reaching real people’s Second-level. It’s the great power of Divine Boxing. Its strength is absolutely chilling.
However, Qin Feng’s entire body seemed affected by the punches. It appeared he wouldn’t fend off, nor dodge.
But Qin Feng neither blocked nor dodged, just gently waved his hand.
He appeared to be behind the linen-clad old man, but somehow, his fist didn’t touch his clothes. His fist blocked the old man’s fist, preventing ingress and egress.
Then Qin Feng waved his hand and Ma Yi the old man flew out.
"To be fair, you really can’t get the Sword Saint Order. I don’t wish to kill you, why don’t you leave quickly?"
"To be fair" was the old Man Ma Yi’s catchphrase, but repeatedly used by Qin Feng. The mockery on Ma Yi’s face kept shifting, eventually becoming a low growl.
"Brother Qin, he wants to kill you, and you let him go?" Tiantian couldn’t help but speak.
Qin Feng laughed, "It’s a pity to mix with him. As long as he doesn’t harm you, I’m fine with letting him go."
Thinking about this route, Tiantian couldn’t help blushing. The people Qin Feng killed were mostly those with great desires for her. Perhaps Qin Feng’s influence on Dong was good. Another reason could be Dong didn’t cast sidelong glances at her from the car. Adong’s thoughts and character are indeed rare.
Qin Feng suddenly said, "Tiantian, I’ve gained a lot this year and a half. It’s time to return."
Tiantian looked at Qin Feng, listening carefully.
"Let’s head to the Tianjian Domain. I want to see that swordsman, Dongfang Mubai."
"I don’t care. Wherever Brother Qin goes, I’ll go too," Tiantian smiled.
Qin Feng smiled, then immediately opened the map of the countries and mountains, preparing to head back with Tiantian.
