Chapter 14: The Golden Snake Manual is Obtained

  A cold laugh, a flash of white light, and a white pellet shot towards Wen Fangshi, accurately hitting his mouth. Fresh blood splattered out, and his mouth was beaten beyond recognition. Ye Feng's mocking voice also came over: "Heroes? A group of petty thieves, are they worthy of these four words?"

  Wen Fangshi covered his mouth with one hand and let out a mournful howl. Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, his wrist shook, a cold light flashed, and a flying knife cut through the night sky as he angrily cursed: "You little rabbit, you dare to shoot at people in the dark! Let me show you the ferocity of Wen Siye!"

  He thought he had thrown the flying knife towards the willow tree, but in just one breath, a black shadow suddenly floated down from the willow tree, like a ghost. In an instant, it had already flashed into the crowd and appeared in front of him. The person was holding the flying knife that Wen Fangshi had just shot out. Taking advantage of the momentum, he slashed towards Wen Fangshi's face. Wen Fangshi was shocked and hurriedly dodged to the side, but unexpectedly, it was just a feint.

  Cold light flashed, Wen Fangshi's two ears had already fallen off!

  Everything happened too fast, in just one breath, Wen Fangshi didn't even have time to cry out, let alone his four brothers nearby who couldn't save him.

  Ye Feng coldly smiled and said: "You don't know how high the sky is or how thick the earth is!"

  Lao San Wen Fangshan angrily said: "You dare! You actually dare to come to the Wen family and be so arrogant?! I'll make sure you never leave!"

  As they spoke, the dragon head steel spear swept straight towards Ye Feng's body. Ye Feng let out a cold laugh and his figure flashed, making an action that was completely beyond ordinary people's understanding. His posture was light and agile, like a swimming fish!

  On the left, Warmth Patriarch Wen Fangda exclaimed in surprise: "'Divine Movement and Hundred Changes'?! Who exactly are you? Why do you want to intervene in my Warm Family's internal affairs?"

  He spoke while holding a pair of short spears in his hand, beckoning towards Ye Feng's body.

  Ye Feng didn't answer at all, he just coldly smiled and dodged.

  This move is too versatile, too nimble and too light, but also somewhat excessive. This skill only focuses on dodging and defense, extremely strong in defensive capabilities, but neglects offense and lacks weight. Just now, the two knives that cut off Wen Fangshi's ear were just a surprise attack. If he was fully prepared, it would be unknown whether an ear could even be cut off.

  Within four or five short breaths, Wen's Five Ancestors had already made thirty or forty moves, but hadn't even touched a single hair on Ye Feng.

  Ye Feng sneered: "The five ancestors of the Wen family are all trash, not worth mentioning. The Five Elements Formation is still decent, next time I'll play a thrilling game with you!"

  Immediately afterwards, a black shadow flashed by, and Ye Feng unfolded his body technique, already leaping out of the Wen residence.

  Lao Wu Wen Fangwu suddenly shouted: "You dare, leave me the Golden Snake Lang Jun!" After speaking, he wanted to chase out.

  Wen Fang Da stopped Wen Fang Wu with one hand, and Wen Fang Wu hastily said: "Big brother, he took that Xia guy away!"

  Wen Fangda glared at him and said sternly, "He's using the Divine Movement Hundred Changes! Can you catch up?! Even if you do catch up, what can you do? Earlier, that one knife of his, if it had been aimed at Old Fourth's throat instead of his ear, do you think Old Fourth would still be alive?"

  The other four people were suddenly shocked and broke out in a cold sweat. Wen Fangshi, whose ears had been cut off, subconsciously touched his neck.

  Wen Fangshan furrowed his brow and said, "Big brother, he should be that 'Blood-handed Butcher' Ye Feng. However...he is so resentful of our Wen family, why didn't he just kill Fourth Brother with one slash?"

  Wen Fangda shook his head and said: "This person's hidden weapon skills are top-notch, and their lightness skills are also top-class. What he wants to do, I really can't guess."

  Wen Fangshi angrily said: "What does it matter what that bastard wants to do, he won't say anything and will come again anyway. We five brothers will work together in harmony, set up the Five Elements Formation, and definitely make him regret coming!" Under his angry shout, he moved his injured mouth, and the pain made him grit his teeth.

  When it comes to the Five Elements Formation, the faces of the five ancestors of the Wen family are all filled with unparalleled confidence and arrogance.

  Wen Fangda said in a low voice: "No matter what he wants to do, during this period of time, we will be on high alert. If he dares to come, I will definitely make him die in the Five Elements Array!"

  "Wen Fang said proudly: 'That's right, under the vast sky, there hasn't been a single person who can break through our five-element formation alone!'"

  ……

  Outside Shiliang Town, ten miles away, there is a cave in the mountains.

  On the second day in the morning, the medicinal properties of "Drunken Immortal's Honey" had not yet worn off, but Xia Xueyi woke up ahead of time and her strength had recovered to about 70-80%.

  Ye Feng was practicing the Golden Snake Sword Technique, and upon seeing him wake up, he said with a hint of surprise, "You're awake?" Then smiled and said, "Are you hungry? I bought some dry rations in town, let's make do with that."

  Xia Xue didn't respond, but instead stared at the golden snake sword in Ye Feng's hand, as if wanting an explanation. However, her starry eyes were extremely gentle, without any hostility.

  Yue Feng chuckled and said, "That thing... nobody talks to me, I'm bored, the Golden Snake Secret Manual happened to fall out of your pocket, couldn't resist, casually played a few moves, after all, I also saved you a life, I suppose you won't mind."

  Xia Xue said: "You saved me for this 'Golden Snake Secret Manual'?"

  Ye Feng said: "It's not all, but it's almost, haha... Alright, 'Drunken Fairy Honey' can make ordinary people unconscious for a day and night. I underestimated the time you'd be unconscious. Originally, I planned to disguise myself, return the item to its owner before you woke up, and pretend I didn't peek. Who would have thought that accidentally getting infatuated, you woke up without even realizing it."

  "Since you want to learn, then go ahead and learn."

  His eyes were deep and profound, but then he let out a light sigh and said: "After last night's events, I realized that if one cannot be with the person they love, even if their martial arts skills are unparalleled in the world and they possess all the wealth under heaven, what is the point? As long as I can be with the person I love, even if the Emperor himself asked me to do something, I would not do it."

  Ye Feng let out a gentle breath, Ha...... The goal was finally achieved.

  Xia Xue gazed at Ye Feng, suddenly asking: "If you really only wanted the 'Golden Snake Secret Manual', you could have killed me and taken it for yourself. But you didn't. If it was for the treasure, you could have done what the Wen family ancestors did, cutting off my tendons. Yet you didn't do any of that... What exactly do you want to do? I'm completely baffled."

  "Come on, didn't I already tell you what I wanted to do?" Ye Feng said with a hint of impatience, his eyes gleaming white like summer snow.

  Xia Xue thought it was better to remain silent, he let out a soft sigh and stood up as if to leave.

  Ye Feng blocked his way: "I know what you're thinking of doing now, but I ask you... even if you didn't drink the 'Drunken Fairy's Nectar', could you still break through the Five Elements Formation?"

  Xia Xueyi stopped for a moment and thought for a while before saying, "That's right, even if I didn't drink, it would only prolong things for a short while. In the end, I would still be captured."

  Ye Feng said: "Well, what do you want to do? Go back and die? Hand over the treasure? Don't be silly... Of course, you can also elope with Miss Wen, but we both know that the five ancestors of the Wen family are all obsessed with wealth and are ruthless. As long as you don't die, as long as they don't die, you'll never have a peaceful life... You can also use poison, just poison one person, and the remaining four will not be a problem. But after all, they are Miss Wen's relatives, she doesn't want them to kill you, but she also doesn't want you to harm her relatives."

  There is another point that Ye Feng didn't mention: with a proud and noble character like Xia Xueyi's, why would she stoop to using poison?

  Xia Xue seemed to be deep in thought, silently pondering Ye Feng's words.

  Yefeng smiled slightly and said: "Since you can't do it, then let me take care of it."

  Xia Xueyi's eyes suddenly lit up, and she exclaimed in surprise: "So... so last night, you had the chance to kill Wen Fangshi, but didn't do it, just to avoid destroying the Wen family's Five Elements Formation?"

  Ye Feng smiled slightly.
