Chapter 347: Chapter 347, Feng Yuyan
Swoosh!
Not far from the Blood Bee Mountain Range, three streaks of light shot through the sky, tearing the air apart and transforming into two chaotic streams flying in all directions.
Leading the way was a woman in her twenties, dressed in a red robe. She had phoenix-like eyes and a delicate figure, resembling an immortal descended from the heavens. However, her face was pale, and the spiritual power within her was in disarray, clearly indicating severe injuries.
"Feng Yuyan, as long as you hand over the other map, we’ll let you leave!"
Behind her were two men in gray robes, around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. Despite their youth, their spiritual power was immense, like a mighty river cascading from the heavens.
"I’ve long heard that the Ye Family of the Beiming Domain is despicable and shameless. Today, their reputation proves true!"
Feng Yuyan sneered coldly. Demanding her to hand over the other map was nothing more than wishful thinking.
If any martial artist from the Beiming Domain were here, the name Ye Family would be familiar to them. In the Beiming Domain, the major families controlled the lifelines of cultivation, with the Alliance of the Twelve Families being the most powerful among them.
The Ye Family was one of the twelve, with a strong presence of experts at the Realm of Transcendence.
"You’re asking for death!"
The gray-robed youth on the left, enraged, stepped forward three times and slashed with his sword, the sword light roaring like an enraged dragon.
"Ice Profound Force Field!"
Feng Yuyan’s expression changed slightly. Chased this far by the two, her spiritual power was nearly exhausted. If she didn’t find a way out, death was inevitable.
Boom!
A blue whirlwind seemed to spiral out from Feng Yuyan, forming a special force field within ten meters, deconstructing everything within into spiritual power, even the spiritual power of the gray-robed youth was quickly dissipated.
"Brother Jiu, use your ultimate move. Ordinary attacks can’t harm Feng Yuyan ranked forty-fifth on the Profound List!"
The other gray-robed youth’s eyes flashed coldly as he spoke slowly.
The youth called Brother Jiu nodded, knowing well that martial artists on the Profound List were geniuses, one in a billion.
The Profound List, a ranking of the younger generation in the Eastern Hundred Domains, listed the top one hundred prodigies under twenty years old. Being on the list meant being a prodigy capable of dominating a domain. Feng Yuyan, the number one young expert of the Ice Profound Domain, was no exception.
The two exchanged glances, then the youth on the right gently took the left-hand of the one on the left, a subtle green light circulating between them.
"Sword Wound!"
Swoosh!
A sharp sword aura rose up behind them, like a sliver of darkness vanishing at dawn, then, like a rising sun, it cut through the air, slashing towards Feng Yuyan. The power of this move was enough to kill an ordinary Guiyuan Realm Fourth Layer expert.
It was this move that had wounded Feng Yuyan before; without it, injuring her would have been a fool’s dream.
Feng Yuyan’s scalp tingled. She had been wounded more than once by this move and knew its terrifying power.
"Profound Ice Reverse Water!"
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Terrifying ice spun around her, and the sound of rushing water echoed. The spiritual power transformed into water, whose force could kill any Guiyuan Realm Third Layer martial artist.
Thud!
The sword aura clashed with the huge wave, and within a breath, the wave was split in two, splashing to either side.
"Pff..."
The powerful force sent Feng Yuyan flying, spurting blood mid-air, her face even paler.
As the forty-fifth prodigy on the Profound List, Feng Yuyan had an impressive background, being the core disciple of the Ice and Snow Hall in the Ice Profound Domain.
However, the Eastern Hundred Domains were vast, making up a fifth of the continent. The distance between the Ice Profound Domain and the Beiming Domain was too great for help to arrive in time.
Swoosh!
Despite her worsening injuries, Feng Yuyan flew faster towards the Blood Bee Mountain Range. Her map indicated an eighty percent chance that her destination lay there.
"Chase!"
The two gray-robed youths, both at the peak of the Guiyuan Realm Third Layer, whose combined sword move could kill a Guiyuan Realm Fourth Layer expert, gave chase.
Swoosh!
Feng Yuyan, like a bright flame, descended towards the Blood Bee Mountain Range, with the two gray-robed youths right on her tail.
At this moment, Chu Ming was walking towards the Blood Bee Mountain Range, less than a hundred li away. With his speed, he would reach it in half an hour.
"Hm?"
Chu Ming noticed something unusual in the sky. He looked up to see three figures clashing in mid-air. He wasn’t alone; other martial artists heading for the Blood Bee Mountain Range also looked up, their gazes filled with dread.
Strong!
With just one look, Chu Ming could tell that the woman in red was incredibly strong; he wouldn’t be able to defeat her within a hundred moves.
Chu Ming was sure he had never seen this woman in the Celestial Realm, and with her strength, she was no ordinary martial artist. There was only one answer:
She was a prodigy from another domain!
It wasn’t unusual for prodigies to travel to other domains for training. The more experiences they had, the better they understood martial arts.
Originally, Chu Ming hadn’t planned to intervene, as he had his own goals and didn’t want to waste time.
To his surprise, the woman in red flew straight toward him without hesitation.
"Sir, if you help me fend off those two, this map is yours!"
Feng Yuyan brushed her right hand to produce a beast skin map from her storage ring, sending a message to Chu Ming.
She had her reasons for flying towards Chu Ming. Even if she were to give up the map, she wouldn’t give it to the Ye Family.
Within her sensing range, none of the nearby martial artists had strength exceeding or matching hers, except Chu Ming, whom she couldn’t see through.
"Alright!"
Chu Ming glanced at the beast skin map in her hand, paused briefly, and then agreed calmly.
He agreed because he noticed that the beast skin map she held was made of the same material as the two pieces in his storage ring.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
In the blink of an eye, the two gray-robed youths were within a hundred meters of Chu Ming, while Feng Yuyan had reached his side.
Chu Ming took a quick glance at Feng Yuyan, inwardly praising her. In terms of both demeanor and appearance, she was among the top three women he had ever seen.
