Top-class Bodyguard

Chapter 723 702: I'm Willing to Go with You to Jiangnan City

As Ren Feng's deeds spread widely, everyone in the martial arts world gave him a nickname.

Martial Honorific Master Ren!

In the martial arts world, only if someone's strength reaches the peak and their character is exceptional can they be called an Honorific Master!

The arrival of an Honorific Master sweeps across all directions; all beings admire them.

Another layer of meaning is that meeting an Honorific Master is like seeing one's own master, and one should treat them with respect.

The title of Honorific Master is extremely precious; the last person to receive this title was Chen Fengya during the Republic era. He was the one Mr. Ren mentioned to Ren Feng, who had the physique of the Nine Yang.

Since the Republic, Ren Feng is the second one!

Master Ren, this title is truly a heavy one.

The day Ren Feng left the Shaolin Temple with Liang Keqing, they rested in the city for a while.

It wasn't until the second day that Ren Feng's internal condition improved somewhat.

He knew this situation well; each time he passed a Yang Tribulation, using the Final Yang state wouldn't be too problematic, but as the number of uses increased and time went on, using it again would trigger the next Yang Tribulation.

This cycle repeats continuously until the Yang Tribulation is completely passed.

Moreover, using the previous stimulating acupuncture techniques in the Final Yang state causes even more damage to the body.

But regardless, this journey to Miaojiang finally came to an end.

Recalling the journey to Miaojiang, Ren Feng was somewhat reflective. It was indeed incredibly challenging, even breaking his prior knowledge.

Now he felt a bit lost; his current strength was already very strong, but what would be the next step if he continued to advance?

The appearance of Origin Ancient Village made Ren Feng realize that there were many things he didn't know yet—the so-called magical barriers, the strange scenes when entering the Heaven-Reaching Ladder, and even the ancient serpent, all of which had repeatedly shattered his understanding.

Most importantly, the Hou Wu in the Origin Ancient Village said that when his strength reaches a certain level, he will come find him for a task. But what task?

Ren Feng shook his head and shrugged off these thoughts.

He had been away from Jiangnan City for almost a month now and hadn't contacted Xia Wenxue during this time. He missed Xia Wenxue very much.

While lost in thought, he heard a knock on the door. Upon opening it, it was Liang Keqing.

"You're awake?"

After a night's rest, Liang Keqing's spirits had recovered, but her expression still seemed somewhat downcast.

"Let's have breakfast later."

Ren Feng said smilingly.

He washed up and led Liang Keqing to a breakfast shop.

"Eat more; it's been a tiring few days."

Ren Feng placed a bun into Liang Keqing's bowl.

Liang Keqing took a bite, and the fresh, hot soup burst into her mouth, rich and flavorful.

"Mm, delicious."

Seeing Liang Keqing's slightly burnt tongue expression, Ren Feng laughed and said, "Eat slowly. Sometimes, being able to have breakfast is an extremely happy thing—waking up and having a steaming hot breakfast to fill your stomach is a truly wonderful experience."

"Yes." Liang Keqing looked at the delicately shaped xiaolongbao, "Actually, while in Miaojiang, I always longed for the outside world, often sneaking out, but my father wouldn't allow it, saying it was dangerous."

Mentioning Liang Hongkuan, both fell silent.

Ren Feng smiled and changed the topic.

"Try this."

Ren Feng handed over some hot dry noodles and rice noodles.

Liang Keqing began eating, finding the tastes surprisingly unfamiliar and fresh.

Ren Feng silently watched Liang Keqing eat breakfast. She is a woman with a strong Jianghu aura; the scene of their first meeting in the mountains reappeared in his mind.

Bold, passionate, always smiling, and beautiful, when they were in the water, Ren Feng also noticed her figure, her beauty mixed with the innocence of the Miao people.

"Keqing, have you thought it through?"

Ren Feng gently asked, "The Miaojiang's matters are now resolved. Today, I plan to return; I've been out for so many days, and there are still many things waiting for me."

Liang Keqing remained silent.

"Mr. Liang entrusted you to me, but I need to respect your wishes." Ren Feng softly said, "Whatever decision you make, I won't stop you. If you want to return to the Miao Village, I'll take you back; if you want to go to Jiangnan City with me, I'll take good care of you."

"I know this decision is difficult, but sometimes, we must make choices." Ren Feng gently wiped Liang Keqing's lips with a napkin.

"I actually long for the outside world." Liang Keqing finally said after a brief silence, "But now I'm a little scared, and I don't know how to face it."

Ren Feng sighed inwardly; Liang Keqing, like Xia Wenxue, hadn't moved past her hesitations.

"Keqing, if you come to Jiangnan City with me, you shouldn't feel lonely." Ren Feng said gently, "There will be people to lead you in experiencing new things, letting go of unhappiness, and living a joyful and fulfilling new life."

Ren Feng now treated Liang Keqing like a younger sister, and honestly, he felt somewhat guilty about Liang Hongkuan's death. If Liang Hongkuan hadn't saved him, so many things would not have happened.

While Liang Keqing pondered, Ren Feng was not in a hurry; he patiently waited for her decision.

Nearly ten minutes passed before Liang Keqing lifted her head and seriously asked, "If I go to Jiangnan City with you, can I still return to the Miao Village?"

"You can return any time, anywhere; I'll always respect your choice."

"Then," Liang Keqing bit her lip, "is Jiangnan City fun?"

"Yes, it's fun." Ren Feng said with a smile, "It has many new and interesting things and many fascinating people. Besides, Keqing, don't you want to re-establish the Rebirth Sect in the city? Pass down its Cultivation Techniques and revive the Rebirth Sect. This is also a better way to fulfill Mr. Liang's wish."

"I've already found apprentices for you, and outside, traditional Chinese medicine is quite developed. You can exchange ideas with both witch doctors and Chinese medicine practitioners."

"What Mr. Liang cares about most is your happiness. As long as you're happy, I believe even if he's watching from above, he will find peace."

Ren Feng watched Liang Keqing, saying many things to her.

Liang Keqing thought for a moment and then nodded, "I've made up my mind, I'm willing to go to Jiangnan City with you."

Ren Feng was slightly stunned but quickly smiled.

"Okay, I promise to take good care of you. Oh, and in Jiangnan City, there are many people I will introduce to you."

Ren Feng felt quite pleased. Honestly, he hadn't expected Liang Keqing to agree, but since she had agreed, Ren Feng certainly wouldn't disappoint Liang Keqing or Liang Hongkuan.
