Martial Peak: Chaos Dragon Emperor

Looking at the youth floating in front of them, all five cultivators, irrespective of their factions, shivered. They had just seen someone with their own cultivation level being killed by this youth, only with a squeeze of his hand.

And this terrified them. The two from the medicine king valley exchanged uneasy glances, they don't know who this youth was nor on who's side he was on. Although he had helped them by killing that one cultivator, that didn't mean he was on their side either as he was just responding in kind to his attacker.

The three cultivators from Ash-Gray Cloud Evil Land on the other hand, after exchanging a look with each other, turned around and tried to flee, abandoning their goal.

Yes, they 'Tried'. But just as they turned around, they felt a pressure placed on them, stopping them from even moving an inch.

Yang Feng looked at the three while releasing his 'Conquerer's Haki'. His Haki' had grown stronger after his secultion and had a greater effect. 'Hmm ... I think I should change the name, Conquerer just doesn't sit well with cultivation setting of this reality.'

He then suddenly remembered something, 'that would fit it as 'that' realm has a similar type of effect on people of lower realms.'

He nodded as he used his void steps and appeared behind one of the three cultivators. He proceeded to grab his head and used his powerful divine sense to pry into his knowledge sea. Going through his recent memories, albeit not thoroughly, just some glimpses because he didn't have a method to instantly read all of his memories while keeping his body safe in the outside world.

Through this, he was able to get some information about the current situation. First of all, it has been a little more than 2 days since he entered the pond, he estimated that if had to absorb all the knowledge he stored into his Mind Palace, he might have to stay there for a few days.

Secondly, it was about five days ago that Yang Bai, the 'Demon Lord' had stealthly attacked someplace in the Great Han Dynasty with a few people. The 'someplace' Yang Feng suspected being High Heaven Pavilion.

Thirdly, these people were sent here to either recruit Xiao Fu Sheng and talented alchemists or kill everyone here, on the orders of the Evil Kings.

He also learned a few things about the Evil Lands and about a few events the Demon Lord was planning for the near future. He then looked towards the three 'frozen' cultivators, these four (including the one he had killed first) had came with a few more immortal ascension realm cultivators and many Separation & Reunion and True Element Realm cultivators from the Ash-Gray Cloud Evil Lands.

But these four had decided to confront the two immortal ascension realm cultivators on the myriad drug pond while the other immortal ascension cultivators took care of Xiao Fu Sheng. With the people of lower realms gathering herbs, talented alchemists and anything of value.

Now unfortunately, they met him. Yang Feng punched out. As he punched out a dragon phantom appeared and 'ate' the three, leaving behind nothing but blood mist.

The two cultivators from medicine king valley who had seen all of this play out, were sweating bullets but didn't dare move. They didn't know who this person was, but as he only killed the people who were attacking him, he should be on their side ... right?

Yang Feng had also noticed their expressions but he didn't care and looked towards the direction where he felt a same if not higher level of disturbance, it was the direction of Xiao Fu Sheng's residence.

Ignoring the uneasy and fearful looks he was getting from the two, Yang Feng used his void steps and disappeared from his place. Leaving the two shell shocked but relived cultivators.

The next moment he appeared to a scene of people exploding after blood escaped all pores of their bodies. Yang Feng looked at this with some surprise as he understood what was at play with just a glance.

He had read of something like this before. The people had enhaled a type of poison that is very different to detect and is odorless. It enters the target's body, slowly clogging their maridian pathways and when the target circulates a large amount of his Qi, he will suffer a backlash that would basically damage/destroy his/her maridian pathways. While the Qi that circulates in the users body without a way to flow, would overload the body and make it burst.

This poison was a mysterious-grade poison that only worked on those below Transendant Realm, or anyone with the same level of reserves or control. It was a really good but at the same time a useless poison, at least in the higher worlds because of it's limitations.

Now the surprising part about this was, he had found it in his alchemy knowledge. No matter what people say, alchemy and poison often go hand in hand, the grandmaster whose knowledge he gained surely agreed as he found nearly as many poison methods as pill methods.

And according to Yang Feng, only two people in this small world would be able to successfully concoct this poison, while only one of them should have the method to make it, excluding him.

He ignored the blood and gore around him and focused on the group of six people floating in the sky, in the center of all that falling blood and body matter. He saw how five of them were looking at the sixth with various emotions, though one emotion was similar between them, surprise. Which Yang Feng also shared.

There he was Xia Ning Chang with a look of determination on her face as she stood in front of the five people behind her. Yang Feng and Meng Wu Ya could however see that she was a bit more paler than her usual color and was clinching her fists rather thightly.

Yang Feng was both proud of and worried about her. She had promised him that she would stand up for herself and she had done splendidly, even if she was feeling like this because she had just killed people like she had never did before, it reassured him that she would be able to take care of herself when others were not near her.

He swiftly used void steps and appeared in front of her and held her in a hug. She stiffened as she felt someone suddenly appear in front of her and hugging her. But the next moment, she felt the familiar warmth from the hug and smelled his scent which calmed her down as she instantly relaxed in his arms, knowing who it was without even looking.

"You did great, no need to feel bad about it. I'm proud of you." Yang Feng whispered to her as he felt her relax against him, comforting her.

The others were surprised when they saw him appear suddenly, even Meng Wu Ya didn't react as he was already surprised by and worried for Xia Ning Chang earlier.

Upon seeing it was him who appeared, they calmed down and descended back to the ground, giving them time. After sometime Yang Feng felt her calm down and descended as well.

As they descended, Yang Feng asked her something that he was curious about, "did you make the poison.", thought it came out more like a statement rather than a question because Yang Feng didn't think that the Old Man Xiao could make something like that.

She revealed a shy smile that was covered by her mask and said in a bashful, but proud voice, "Yeah!, after you transfered me all that knowledge, I wanted to making some kind of poison and see how it would turn out. So after searching for sometime, I decided to refine this one as I already had nearly all the ingredients, except two which I found around the valley."

Looking at her narrating her experience with enthusiasm, he smiled as she continued, "The thing that surprised me a little was that refining the poison came to me as easily as refining a pill. So I think that I will continue to study poisons along with my alchemy, ... even if I prefer alchemy over poison."

Her last line made him chuckle at her enthusiasm and cute behavior. After talking to her for a minute, informing of what he was going to do next and advising her to stay here and focus on her cultivation, Yang Feng looked around himself.

Looking around, he saw that not much was damaged near the courtyards, but even the overall damage was not much throughout the whole medicine king valley. The people who came either only took alchemist or herbs, but didn't destroy anything else.

The only case when some destruction took place was when people of higher realms fought. Standing beside Xiao Fu Sheng, who was also looking towards the visible valley from his peak, Yang Feng said, "looks like you guys didn't suffer much."

Xiao Fu Sheng turned towards him and asked with curiousity and a bit of annoyance, "what do you mean by 'didn't suffer much'?"

"Do you think that you were the only one who got attacked?" That one sentence shut Xiao Fu Sheng up. He indeed didn't think of it like that. From what he knew from his information channel, these demon cultivator have suddenly started attacking many places and those place have suffered alot worse than the medicine king valley.

Letting out a sigh he said, "I guess your right.". He understood that the only reason things were so controlled here were because of Xia Ning Chang, Meng Wu Ya and, from what information he received, Yang Feng as well.

Without them, he might have been killed, kidnapped or severely injured. The two then continued to look towards the direction of the valley, as Xia Ning Chang and Dong Qing Yan stood a little behind them.

The two middle-aged women, that were Xiao Fu Sheng's guards, along with Meng Wu Ya had gone to see the damage caused by these people and to kill the people who were still lingering around.

After a moment of silence, Yang Feng said, "I'm leaving for the sect.", the suddenness of the statement made Xiao Fu Sheng look at Yang Feng with curiousity, "Any special reasons."

Yang Feng didn't look at him and continued looking ahead, "The sect was attacked." He said with such calmness that Xiao Fu Sheng didn't know what to say.

"Don't fert, nothing serious of damage happened." After hearing that Xiao Fu Sheng thought,' how did he even know if that happened. Old Meng didn't say anything...'. before he could continue his thought process, Yang Feng said as he flew away.

"Just inform Old Man Meng and tell him that I will come to look for him when the time is right."
