Chapter 148 Boss, Save Me
Luo Jing's blood-stained face showed a slight change in expression: "Yue Feng? You are a guest elder of the Six Doors? I've heard my master mention you before, and I've always wanted to meet you, but I never expected... it would be in this kind of place, in this kind of way."
Yue Feng smiled and said, "I've heard Chief Constable Luo mention you too. I promised him I'd rescue you. Let's go now."
Luo Jing remained motionless and said, "Brother Yue! I am deeply grateful that you came here to find me. However, there are many experts in the Black-Clad Society's headquarters. If you take me with you, we will not be able to escape."
"Hehe, with Brother Yue in the martial world, the likes of Ouyang Ying will never succeed in their evil schemes. I, Luo Jing, am content to see you one last time before I die!"
As Luo Jing finished speaking, he suddenly raised the iron pliers in his hand and slammed them down on his head. Yue Feng casually snatched the pliers, crumpled them into a ball like paper, and tossed them aside, saying:
"Brother Luo, could you trust me this once? This world is too vast; I can't manage it all by myself."
Upon seeing Yue Feng display such extraordinary skill, Luo Jing was utterly astonished, and his desire to die instantly transformed into a will to live. He nodded and said, "Very well, since Brother Yue has extended such a generous invitation, I, Luo, will accompany you on this journey with my crippled body."
The two smiled, everything understood without words. Yue Feng asked Luo Jing, "Can you still walk?" Luo Jing nodded and slowly took a step. Yue Feng reached out a hand, gently supporting Luo Jing's arm, and his Purple Flower True Qi entered Luo Jing's body from a distance, helping to unblock his meridians.
Luo Jing sighed, "Brother Yue's skills are truly astounding, and yet he is so young. Heaven is so unfair." Although he said this, he had no jealousy in his words, but was simply praising him from the bottom of his heart.
Yue Feng said, "When you're in the martial world, the most important thing is never martial arts skills, but ambition. You can practice if your martial arts skills are not high, but you can't find ambition if you don't have it. Brother Luo is imprisoned, but he still has the ambition to cleanse the martial world. His future achievements will surely be no less than mine."
During their conversation, Yue Feng had already largely cleared the blockages in Luo Jing's meridians. His skill was already extremely profound, and the Purple Flower Immortal Body was something he had created himself based on the Everlasting Spring Skill and the Purple Cloud Divine Skill. Both of these were top-tier skills for treating internal injuries, so he could cure Luo Jing's illness with ease.
Luo Jing felt as if his body had been rejuvenated, becoming full of vitality, and said, "Brother Yue, I'm all better now, you don't need to waste your energy on me anymore."
Yue Feng patted Luo Jing's arm and turned to walk out of the cell. He paused as he passed Ouyang Ying: "Get up. Take me to Xue Yu."
Ouyang Ying said, "Lord Xue... is not here."
Yue Feng raised his eyebrows, and Ouyang Ying shuddered. He blurted out, "He told me to find him at the Eastern Depot's office. He should be working there right now."
"There is a secret passage here that leads directly to the Eastern Depot; there is another secret passage that leads directly to a branch of the Beggars' Sect. Luo... Luo Jing also knows about this; you can ask him if you don't believe me."
Luo Jing snorted, "That's right, I was tricked into coming here by them in order to find those two secret passages."
A long howl suddenly echoed from afar; it was Lin Pingzhi's howl. At the same time, the sounds of heavy objects hitting the ground resounded incessantly. Yue Feng, seeing Ouyang Ying's visibly changed expression, couldn't help but frown slightly as well.
He said "excuse me" to Luo Jing, put one hand on Luo Jing's lower back, grabbed Ouyang Ying's arm with the other, and used his lightness skill to rush to the source of the sound without touching the ground.
Luo Jing was supported by his lower back, as if flying on flat ground, while Ouyang Ying did not receive such good treatment and was dragged along by Yue Feng all the way.
The three of them turned a corner and saw Lin Pingzhi rushing towards them in a hurry, his long sword bent into a right angle. Behind him, a woman who looked like a huge ball of flesh almost filled the entire passageway, chasing after them with tremendous force.
Yue Feng couldn't help but turn to look at Ouyang Ying, only to see his face ashen and his legs trembling like leaves. Luo Jing also gasped, "Brother Yue, you've traveled far and wide, you must be very knowledgeable, have you ever dealt with such a monster?"
"No," Yue Feng answered honestly. At that moment, Lin Pingzhi also saw Yue Feng and cried out repeatedly, "Boss, boss, boss, help!"
Yue Feng sighed helplessly. He wanted to curse Lin Pingzhi, but couldn't bring himself to say it, feeling quite frustrated. He grabbed Ouyang Ying, dragged him forward a bit, and shouted, "Stop! One more step and I'll kill him!"
Min'er's mountain-like body stopped abruptly, displaying remarkable agility. Lin Pingzhi seized the opportunity to slip behind Yue Feng, his longsword pointing at Ouyang Ying. Yue Feng glared at him, annoyed, and asked, "What's going on?"
Lin Pingzhi looked aggrieved: "Boss, I don't know either! I was just keeping watch outside when that woman suddenly broke through the wall. If I hadn't reacted quickly and blocked her with my sword, I wouldn't be able to see you now."
Min'er looked Yue Feng up and down for a while and said, "If I'm not mistaken, you are the Yue Feng who cut off Yinglang's wrist and gave my father a big headache, right? You do have a good appearance."
"Alright, leave one hand here, and stay with me for a few more days, and I'll spare your life and even make you the vice-leader of my Black-Clad Society, just like Chang Gaizhi. With the two of you assisting me, I can kill whoever I want, right? Haha, haha!"
Lin Pingzhi leaned close to Yue Feng's ear and said, "Boss, can you beat her? If you can't, then..."
Yue Feng forcefully pushed Lin Pingzhi away, pointed at him, and said to Min'er, "He's good-looking too, why did you choose him over me?"
Min'er glanced at Lin Pingzhi and said, "His martial arts skills are too low, I don't think much of him. But since you've said so, I'll reluctantly let him go with you. Anyway, I'm strong and can handle the strain."
Lin Pingzhi couldn't hold it in any longer and leaned against the wall, dry heaving. Yue Feng patted his back while saying to Min'er:
"I'm sorry, Miss Min'er, this guy is still too young. He doesn't know that life is the most precious thing. Unlike me, even if I don't want my life, I have to make sure my mind is at peace."
With a sudden crack, Ouyang Ying's skull shattered. Yue Feng wiped his hands on the earthen wall and drew his Qingfeng Sword from his waist.

"Huh? You're asking for it!"
Min'er's roar was like a thunderclap, making Lin Pingzhi and Luo Jing's heads buzz. Luo Jing almost fell, but Lin Pingzhi quickly steadied him. Yue Feng pointed his longsword diagonally downwards and slowly walked towards Min'er.
Min'er rushed to Yue Feng in a few leaps and punched him in the chest. Her fist was almost as big as Yue Feng's head, and with a terrifying whoosh, the force of the wind made Yue Feng's blue robe flutter backward even before the fist arrived.
Yue Feng stood firm in the center of the storm, like a celestial mountain amidst a raging sea. He took a deep breath, his inner energy circulating, and the tip of his Qingfeng Sword swung out nearly two feet of sword light in the wind. The sword light was pale purple, driven by his Zihua True Qi.
Yue Feng raised the Qingfeng Sword and lightly slashed it from the lower right to the upper left, instantly calming the wind and waves. He turned around and sheathed the Qingfeng Sword. The sword was spotless, but Min'er's body was split in two at an angle, only prevented from falling by being held up by the earthen wall.
