Volume 2: Heavenly Sword Burial Chapter 68: Strolling Through the Market

  From the surroundings of Jiang Feng, four directions east, south, west and north, all had cultivators flying out. These four directions' cultivators, judging from their clothes, should be respectively belonging to four different sects. It's likely that they have decided to cooperate together, taking down Jiang Feng at the same time.

  "These people have been following you for a while now, I said you wouldn't notice anything unusual at all." Lan Wu said.

  Jiang Feng scratched his head, thinking that he really hadn't discovered anything. Because he simply hadn't scattered his spiritual sense to look around everywhere. And also hadn't carefully used his eyes to gaze into the distance.

  When Lan Wu saw Jiang Feng not speaking, she thought Jiang Feng really didn't notice these people. She said: "I'm telling you, day and night, apart from smoking and drinking, what else can you do? With your carelessness, sooner or later you'll lose your life."

  "Don't curse me to death, okay? If I were to die, wouldn't you be left all alone? Besides, I never had the habit of dispersing my divine sense to observe my surroundings in the past, and my own cultivation wasn't that strong either. So it's not surprising that I didn't discover them. Moreover, isn't it because of your super bodyguard that they were discovered?" Jiang Feng said.

  "You still have many reasons, and it seems that you are not planning to run away, wanting to fight with those people here?" Lan Wu said.

  Jiang Feng didn't say anything, and he really hadn't planned on running. Anyway, everyone had already surrounded him, so even if he wanted to run, it wouldn't be easy. He might as well just stay here and see what these people were going to do. It was also a good opportunity to meet the monks and ask them for some information.

  He first fell from the air to the ground, Jiang Feng sat on the ground, took out a wine pouch and drank two mouthfuls, then took out a cold jade snuff bottle, lit a bag of smoke and smoked. He appeared leisurely here, but those cultivators who were approaching cautiously were very careful.

  After several minutes, they finally narrowed the encirclement to a range of fifty meters. Judging from the fluctuations in their cultivation, their cultivation was not strong. The strongest among them had only reached the late stage of the Foundation Establishment period. There were even Qi Refining cultivators among them. They probably weren't disciples of any major sects either.

  Four masters from all directions, adding up to about fifty people. So many people dealing with Jiang Feng alone, yet they are being extremely cautious. It seems that they themselves do not have the slightest confidence.

  "If you have nothing to say or do, then I'll be off." After waiting for two or three minutes and not seeing any movement from the monks, Jiang Feng said this.

  "Jiang Daoyou is indeed impressive. It's no wonder that Jiang Daoyou dared to go alone to the Five Elements Sword Sect and turned it upside down. Just looking at Jiang Daoyou's calm and composed demeanor, he is worthy of admiration." A cultivator from the east said.

  He patted his tobacco pouch, and Jiang Feng said: "My disciples are not very kind, so they need to be taught a lesson. I won't mention their business, but I just want to know what's going on with you, why did you surround me?"

  At first, no one spoke. After nearly a minute, the only late-stage Jiedan cultivator from the west direction said: "Fellow Jiang should know that the Five Elements Sword Sect has issued a heavenly order to capture him and bring him back."

  "I know. You wouldn't be wanting to capture me and then go exchange for a reward, would you?" Jiang Feng said with a smile, his expression seeming to not take the fifty or so cultivators around him seriously at all.

  "Since Jiang Daoyou knows, then please come with us. Otherwise, it won't look good if we start using force." The mid-stage Jiedan cultivator who had spoken earlier said.

  Jiang Feng sneered, pointing at the surrounding cultivators with his Cold Jade Smoking Pipe. After circling around once, Jiang Feng said: "I'm telling you, all of your brains have problems! One of the Nine Great Heavens' Five Elements Sword Sect couldn't even keep me here, and yet you think that you, who haven't even reached the Golden Dan stage, can? Do you really think you're stronger than those high-ranking cultivators in the Five Elements Sword Sect?"

  After being said by Jiang Feng, these cultivators really couldn't make up their minds. They naturally wouldn't think they were stronger than the Five Elements Sword Sect. However, with countless treasures on Jiang Feng's body and a generous reward from the Five Elements Sword Sect, these cultivators couldn't help but be tempted.

  "The unfilial disciples of the Wu Xing Sword Sect are trying to use you to test me. If they really wanted to capture me, it wouldn't matter if one expert came out now, I would still be able to handle them. Even back then, if they had sent a true expert, I could have escaped. Don't be fooled into being used as pawns, go back and cultivate properly." Jiang Feng said.

  These words, the monks around weren't without thinking about it before, they had doubts previously. Now that Jiang Feng said it out loud, it made these monks even more indecisive.

  Seeing those cultivators not moving, Jiang Feng stood up and asked the Foundation Building later-stage cultivator: "Fellow Daoist, do you know where there's a market nearby? I want to go buy some things."

  That solid foundation late-stage cultivator didn't expect Jiang Feng to ignore the fact that they were surrounding him, and instead asked about the location of a nearby market. After being stunned for a moment, he finally told them the location of a nearby market.

  "Thank you, fellow Taoist, I'll take my leave now." Jiang Feng said as he flew up into the air and slowly made his way out of the encircled area.

  He flies slowly here, but there are some monks down there who are in a hurry. The monks with poor cultivation are all looking at the monks with strong cultivation. I suppose if someone makes a move, they will go up.

  Until Jiang Feng flew out of the encirclement, no one made a move. After flying out of the encirclement, Jiang Feng stopped and turned back to look at those people. The expression on his face seemed to say, "Aren't you going to make a move? If not, I'll just leave."

  Until Jiang Feng thoroughly left, disappeared without a trace, and no monks took action. It is not known whether they thought they could not take down Jiang Feng or if they did not want to take action against him from the start.

  "Are you just going to let him go like that?" a junior monk of the Jade Base said.

  The master of the solid foundation period looked at that person with a somewhat unpleasant expression and said, "You can't bear to let him go, so you're going to take action?" After finishing speaking, he flapped his sleeves and flew away. Originally, the direction this person was heading in wasn't the same as Jiang Feng's. However, after flying out for not too far, he changed directions and chased after Jiang Feng instead.

  "Jiang Feng has gone to Fangshi City, let's go and take a look." said the monk who had reacted.

  These people followed Jiang Feng. They all wanted to see with their own eyes what would happen after Jiang Feng arrived at the Fang Market. They were even more eager to see what kind of skills Jiang Feng had, which allowed him to leave the Wu Xing Sword Sect.

  The town was not far from where Jiang Feng was surrounded. This town is also much larger than the one Jiang Feng visited last time. Just as the monks who surrounded Jiang Feng thought, Jiang Feng was recognized by the monks before he even arrived at the town. By the time he reached the entrance of the town, all the monks in the town knew that Jiang Feng had come.

  Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Jiang Feng swaggered into the market. He didn't even pay the one inferior spirit stone required to enter the market. The cultivators inside the market also didn't dare to make a move against Jiang Feng.

  As soon as Jiang Feng entered, the monks at the entrance of the town began to discuss. No one could have imagined that Jiang Feng would dare to appear so openly and brazenly. Even more unbelievable was that Jiang Feng's cultivation had only just reached the initial stage of foundation building. This was almost identical to his ninth layer of Qi Refining when he left the Five Elements Sword Sect.

  Jiang Feng came to the market, not to buy magical instruments or elixirs. He was there to buy maps and records of events in the cultivation world. He hoped that through these things, he could gain a deeper understanding of this world.

  What he needs is almost available in every store. These things are not expensive, after all, they are not martial arts, and many classics are similar things.

  House by house, Jiang Feng bought a lot of maps and many classics. The people in the market were all curious about why Jiang Feng wanted to buy these things. Jiang Feng also didn't go around asking people about the Emperor Void or the Nine Extinction Sect. Because he knew that as soon as he opened his mouth to ask, it would inevitably stir up a storm.

  After strolling around the market for a while, Jiang Feng was about to leave. As soon as he walked out of the market, he found that many cultivators had locked onto him. It seemed they were preparing to make their move on Jiang Feng.

  There will always be someone who can't bear to stand still, Jiang Feng, outside the city, and then smile and say: "My affairs with Wuxing Sword Sect are not for outsiders to intervene, nor do I want to see anyone outside of Wuxing Sword Sect intervening. As for those who want to rob me, I might as well tell you the truth. Yes, I still have two good treasures left, most of them were destroyed in Wuxing Sword Sect. If you want to rob me, come on, I'll fulfill your wishes."

  After finishing speaking, Jiang Feng flew away. As soon as he flew away, a large number of monks chased after him. Some of these monks were just there to watch the excitement, while others really wanted to take action. Jiang Feng was also clear that a fierce battle was about to begin.
