Venerable Martial Emperor

Their auras gradually stabilized. An old man with a crutch walked towards them. His eyes were dim and his walking speed was very slow. He looked like a blind man.    

Silver needle hurriedly ran over and supported the old man. He said amiably, "Yes, I brought a friend over to play for a few days! Fourth Master, it's inconvenient for you to go out. If you have something to tell me, just let me know. Don't go around!"    

Outside, Silver Needle was an assassin. But now, he was like a junior, supporting the old man with a smile on his face.    

The old man chuckled and stopped holding Silver Needles' hands. "I'm always troubling you. How can I be embarrassed?"    

"It's fine! It's fine!"    

As the silver needle spoke, Xu Feng also came to the old man's side and respectfully greeted, "Senior, sorry to bother you!"    

The smile on Fourth Master's face suddenly froze when Xu Feng approached. However, he quickly smiled again. "No worries, no worries!"    

However, Xu Feng, who was good at observing, immediately noticed Fourth Master's unusual behavior. Although he felt that it was strange, he did not think about it carefully.    

"Little Needle, help me back!"    

After politely greeting Xu Feng, Fourth Master did not seem to want to stay any longer. After greeting the silver needle, he walked towards the village. Of course, the silver needle supported Fourth Master tightly.    

Feeling that Fourth Master did not welcome him very much, Xu Feng naturally would not ask for trouble. After strolling around the village for a while, he returned to the house of the silver needle.    

For the past few days, Tuoba Qian had been cultivating. She seemed to be a cultivation maniac. Other than cultivation, she had nothing else to do.    

When Xu Feng returned, Tuoba Qian just finished her work. After letting out a breath of impure air, Tuoba Qian greeted Xu Feng.    

Ever since the misunderstanding was resolved, Tuoba Qian did not want Xu Feng to take responsibility. This matter was like a joke and no one mentioned it again.    

"How is your recovery?"    

Xu Feng also smiled and greeted Tuoba Qian. Now the two of them could be considered friends.    

"I have recovered 90%. I believe I can recover all of it tomorrow. How about you?"    

Although Tuoba Qian did not want to be in this kind of relationship, to her, this was already a huge improvement. After all, Xu Feng had seen her as if she was an enemy in the past. He would never welcome her with a smile like this.    

"I'm 80% sure! I'm not as diligent as you. It's rare for me to slack off. I'll go take a look at the beautiful green mountain water and take a breath of fresh air!"    

Xu Feng smiled awkwardly. Compared to Tuoba Qian, he was definitely a lazy person. However, when Tuoba Qian heard him, she revealed an envious expression.    

"Actually, sometimes, I really envy rogue cultivators like you. You can go around, and the things you see are much more interesting!"    

Xu Feng was stunned when he heard that. This kind of life where one ate raw meat and drank blood without a home was not a happy thing for any cultivator. This young lady actually envied him.    

Therefore, Xu Feng said in puzzlement, "You are the number one genius of North Domain, and you are also the daughter of a big family. If you want to experience these lives, it will be extremely easy for you. What's so difficult about it?"    

"Ai..."    

Unexpectedly, Tuoba Qian lowered her head sadly and shook her head. She said slowly, "These are just the opinions of the people in the world about me. But who has really cared about my thoughts?"    

Xu Feng did not speak. He just listened quietly because he knew that every big family had something that they could not control.    

Tuoba Qian had a few halos on her, but judging from her appearance, she didn't seem happy. As a friend, Xu Feng was very willing to listen. Perhaps, this would help with the relationship between the two of them.    

"We don't have a man in our family. As my father's only daughter, I naturally need to work harder. My childhood was spent in cultivation!"    

Tuoba Qian spoke slowly as she recalled the period of cultivation in the past. Even now, she still had lingering fears, and her experiences... She once again told Xu Feng that every genius was just a tiny bit of talent and a large amount of sweat.    

The reason why he was able to have his current achievements was because he had experienced life and death many times and had obtained a lot of luck. Although Tuoba Qian had not experienced life and death many times, the amount of sweat and blood she had to pay was definitely not less than Xu Feng's.    

"Because of her ugly appearance and her family's reputation, I have no friends since I was young. Even those people in my family were unwilling to play with me until I met you..."    

Tuoba Qian said and raised her head to look at Xu Feng again. Xu Feng quickly interrupted Tuoba Qian. He was afraid that if he continued to speak, Tuoba Qian would take responsibility for him again.    

"Miss Qianer, I am very sympathetic towards your childhood. I also had a tragic childhood, but now, our strength is enough to look down on our peers. Our sacrifice is worth it!"    

Xu Feng reached out his hand and smiled at Tuoba Qian. He continued, "Although I cannot be your husband, I am willing to be friends with you. I wonder what Miss Qianer thinks of my suggestion?"    

Tuoba Qian looked at Xu Feng's hand and could not believe what he said. She looked up and saw Xu Feng's sincere face.    

"What is it? You don't want to?"    

Tuoba Qian looked at Tuoba Qian with a smile. Xu Feng added another sentence. Tuoba Qian immediately held Xu Feng's hand and nodded. "Yes! Yes!"    

In the past, Tuoba Qian had a bad temper. She changed her face whenever she wanted to, but after being scolded by Xu Feng, she self-reflected once and changed a lot. Xu Feng could see these changes.    

"Hahaha..."    

After the two of them shook hands, they smiled at each other. Tuoba Qian's heart was filled with excitement. This kind of scene was something she had never dreamt of before.    

"Although we are friends now, I will not give up. Who knows, you might really like me in the future?"    

Letting go of her hand, Tuoba Qian brought up the old matter again, making Xu Feng's smile freeze.    

He did this because he wanted Tuoba Qian to not pester him. If Tuoba Qian thought that she still had hope and worked harder, then wouldn't she still be pestering him in the future?    

"I'm joking with you, brother!"    

Feeling Xu Feng's change, Tuoba Qian hurriedly changed her words. After all, the relationship between the two had just made a breakthrough. If she fell out with him, then she really should slap herself a few times.    

"Miss Qianer, I appreciate your friendship with me, but I already have someone in my heart. I can no longer tolerate other people. We can only be friends!"    

To be frank, although it was somewhat hurtful, Xu Feng had no other choice. In the past, he would avoid these problems, but now he would not. After experiencing so many things, he had become much more mature. Including his feelings!    

"I know, I didn't say I wouldn't let you go."    

Tuoba Qian pretended not to care and waved her hand with a relaxed expression. What Xu Feng could give her was only a smile.    

Xu Feng turned around and entered the room. The smile on Tuoba Qian's face gradually became stiff. After looking at her figure, she shook her head helplessly.    

She also knew that even if Xu Feng did not have a lover in his heart, he would not fall in love with her. She just wanted to find the appearance of love.    

As the saying goes, which young girl would not be in love with spring? Especially Tuoba Qian, who had been cultivating all year round. After seeing Xu Feng, it was not strange that she could not extricate herself from him.    

Shaking her head, Tuoba Qian threw away the trace of unhappiness in her heart. She gently clenched her fists and said in her heart, Good luck.    

There was nothing difficult in this world. She was afraid that there would be people with ulterior motives. Now, although Tuoba Qian's hope was slim, she would not give up so easily.    

And now, the two of them could be considered friends. Even if they could not become husband and wife, Tuoba Qian could use another way to accompany Xu Feng.    

After a while, the silver needle came back. As soon as he entered, Xu Feng found a jade hanging on the neck of the silver needle. He smiled and said, "What is it? Supporting Lord Fourth, can there be more jade?"    

"Do I look like such a shallow person?"    

Silver needle rolled his eyes and looked at Xu Feng with disdain. He continued, "Fourth Master is more superstitious. He gave me this jade. He said it could help me avoid misfortune. He is old now, so I will listen to him."    

In this village, most of the people were experts and hidden well. Fourth Master seemed to be blind and walked unsteadily, but Xu Feng felt that things would not be so simple.    

However, Xu Feng did not want to ask. Just like what the silver needle said, he was just a passerby to this village. After he left, he would never find this place again.    

The three of them chatted for a while before they all sat in the yard and started to cultivate. Although Xu Feng sometimes "lazed off," he knew his own limitations.    

They had been in this village for a few days now. It seemed that White-browed Eagle King would soon begin the next round of attack. Xu Feng had to recover his health as soon as possible.Edited by: Lifer, Fingerfox Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio    

The day passed in cultivation. At night, the silver needles and Tuoba Qian returned to their houses, while Xu Feng stayed in the yard to cultivate.    

The night sky was getting colder and colder, and the cold wind was blowing. Xu Feng's long hair was fluttering in the wind, but the weather could not affect him. At this moment, he was opening his Aura of Heaven and Earth, sensing the changes in the world.    

This was... It wasn't cultivating the physical body, but the Divine Sense. At the same time, it could be more sensitive to the Qi of the world, and it would be extremely helpful in battles.    

"Wuwuwuwu..."    

The cold wind was getting stronger and stronger, causing the doors and windows to creak. Xu Feng, who was cultivating, frowned slightly. He could feel a slight change in his surroundings within the Divine Sense, but he could not point it out!    

"The weather doesn't change like this. Is there a powerful person coming over?"    

Xu Feng opened his eyes and looked around vigilantly. However, the surroundings were pitch black. Other than the sound of the wind, there was no other sound in the village.    

Xu Feng looked around and did not find anything strange. He shook his head and murmured softly, "Is it because I have been cultivating for too long, and I am hallucinating?    

However, this saying was really powerless. Even Xu Feng himself did not believe it.
