Chapter 681 660: Heading to Thunder Mountain
Fast Blade King followed the people from Zemu Village, walking until he left Taijiang Village, still deep in thought.
To have mastered the three levels of hidden strength and know the Willow Leaf Saber Skill, and also to exist in the realm of a Grandmaster, there seem to be very few such figures in the Jianghu.
Fast Blade King frowned, trying hard to recall Liang Hongkuan's moves, hoping to find some clue.
Right, it seems his surname is Liang, that child called him Mr. Liang, a master with the surname Liang, let me think...
Suddenly, Fast Blade King's steps halted abruptly, a flash of light crossed his mind. If someone with the surname Liang, and can master the three levels of hidden strength, and is at the Grandmaster level, there seems to be only one person who matches this description!
Wasn't the master who was jointly besieged by several major sects back then also called Liang?
No wonder the Jianghu's wanted order couldn't find him, turns out he hid in Miaojiang.
A sharp light flickered in Fast Blade King's eyes. If he remembered correctly, he supposedly possesses an extremely powerful Cultivation Technique, and the wanted orders from those major sects haven't been canceled yet!
Thinking of this, Fast Blade King sneered internally, if I sell his information, I could make a fortune!
...
Ren Feng seemed to be unconscious, not knowing where he was, while the false heat in his body was suppressed.
After a long while, he slowly opened his eyes, and immediately a concerned voice reached him.
"You're awake?"
Ren Feng opened his eyes and looked around. He was lying on a bed in a small wooden hut, with Liang Keqing on the side wringing a towel and placing it on his forehead.
"How many days have I been out?"
"Five days."
Ren Feng was startled, he had actually been unconscious for five days this time?
"Cuo Damu Witch Doctor helped suppress your condition, but he said he can't hold it for long, and when it erupts next time, he won't be able to do anything about it."
Ren Feng felt a bit heavy-hearted.
"It'll be okay." Seeing Ren Feng like this, Liang Keqing consoled him, "There's good news, Mr. Wu retrieved the clan leader's position, he's waiting for you to wake up."
"Really?"
Ren Feng's face lit up with joy, he'd been worried all this time and didn't expect it to actually have been secured.
"Yes, we'll go meet him together later."
"Okay."
After getting up from bed, Ren Feng and Liang Keqing went directly to find Mr. Wu. Upon reaching Mr. Wu's house, unexpectedly, Liang Hongkuan was also there.
"Young man, you're awake." Mr. Wu said with a smile, "I still have to thank you for standing up for us that day."
"No need, it was my duty."
"I've heard about your situation, and coincidentally, I also need to go to Renlei Mountain. Regarding matters of the clan leader, you can accompany me."
"That's great." Ren Feng said, a bit excited.
Mr. Wu laughed, "But don't get too excited yet, I can take you there, but from that point, it's up to you."
"Being able to go to Thunder Mountain, I'm already very grateful to you."
Liang Hongkuan laughed, "Your illness is quite serious, it can't be delayed."
Liang Keqing interjected from the side, "Dad, can I go too?"
"You want to go as well?"
Liang Hongkuan was a bit surprised.
"Yes, I also want to see what Thunder Mountain is like." Liang Keqing had a hint of anticipation in her eyes.
"Keqing." Liang Hongkuan couldn't help but chuckle, "Why follow along?"
"It's okay, if Keqing wants to go, let her." Mr. Wu chuckled.
Liang Keqing beamed with a smile, "Then when do we leave?"
"We'll leave this afternoon, and are expected to arrive at Thunder Mountain tomorrow."
Ren Feng was also somewhat excited, his last hope might lie in Thunder Mountain, hoping what Cuo Damu Witch Doctor said was true, that there's a Yin Spirit Essence Fruit there.
"Alright, I'll go pack up." Liang Keqing stood up.
In the afternoon, Ren Feng, Liang Keqing, and Mr. Wu, among others, set off for Thunder Mountain.
Besides them, Wu Meng was also present.
"This time Doudou wanted to come too, fortunately I stopped him, otherwise Thunder Mountain would have been turned upside down." Wu Meng said with a smile.
The group rode low-stature mountain horses, which were suitable for mountain paths and had remarkable endurance.
"What happened after I fainted that day?" Ren Feng asked.
"After you fainted, my dad saved you." Liang Keqing said from the side, "Then Yamaki Ryo's side lost, and in a fit of rage, exposed what Mr. Miao did. The village captured him, and a few days ago sent him to Thunder Mountain to let the elders of the ancient village punish him."
"In such cases, what kind of punishment is typical?" Ren Feng asked curiously.
"Quite harsh, let the Gu insects devour the body, or become a sacrificial offering." Wu Meng said from the side, "It's rumored that during the Shang Dynasty, King Shang Zhou established a snake pit, and they would push punished officials into it to be bitten by ten thousand snakes. The pain from the Gu insects is said to be even more intense."
Ren Feng shook his head at the thought of such a scene.
The group chatted as they headed towards Thunder Mountain.
At the same time, at an inn at the entrance of Miaojiang, a group of dozens suddenly appeared. Their attire was quite odd, resembling members of a sect, dressed in martial arts gear, and many carried cold weapons on them.
Fast Blade King was among them.
"Is the information you provided true?"
One among them spoke coldly.
"Of course it's true, Liang Hongkuan is in Miaojiang, don't you wish to kill him?" Fast Blade King said calmly.
"Lead the way, if it's true, the bounty will naturally be yours." One person, wearing a head crown, exuded an air of immortality and sage-like grace, but those in the Jianghu would give him a wide berth. He was known as the Poison Taoist Chief, a merciless and brutal figure!
Fast Blade King led a group directly toward a bus. The fat man Ren Feng had seen before saw the group approaching and said with a chuckle: "Sorry everyone, this bus is full. You should look for another..."
Before he finished speaking, the Poison Taoist Chief slapped a glass door, and cracks spread across it like a spider web before it shattered completely.
Crrraash!
The glass shattered to the ground.
The fat man froze, and Fast Blade King said coldly, "Get off!"
"Ah, yes, I'm going."
The fat man gulped, and without another word, scrambled off the bus. The last incident left a scar on him, and he hadn't expected this time to be even worse, with someone smashing the glass with a slap, were these even humans?
"Everyone else, get off too!"
Fast Blade King's sword spun in his hand before being thrust fiercely into a seat.
The passengers were stunned for a second, then screamed and ran off the bus.
"Alright, let's go."
Fast Blade King looked at the driver.
The driver stepped on the gas, trembling.
...
After a day's journey, Ren Feng and the others arrived at Thunder Mountain.
