Chapter 257: Chapter 257: Substantial Spoils of War

Lin Yuan’s expression was the most exaggerated. His mouth wide open, filled with shock, jealousy, and disbelief.

When he joined the sect, his strength was far superior to Chu Feng’s. At that time, when competing for the red flag in the Sword Testing Forest, he was bullying Chu Feng with the demeanor of a king.

And now, how much time has passed?

Merely one year, and although he has advanced to the Advanced Sword Master Realm, he is still at the bottom of that rank. Chu Feng, despite his physical disability and lack of sword meridians,

has skyrocketed in strength and grown to the extent he has today.

Even the experts of Rashamon Sect seem like nothing but instant kills in front of Chu Feng. Those were Great Sword Masters with outstanding combat prowess.

So what does that make Lin Yuan? Isn’t he unworthy of even carrying Chu Feng’s shoes?

Probably even licking Chu Feng’s shoe soles would depend on Chu Feng’s mood.

Liu Qiang also stared at Chu Feng with a cold and sinister gaze.

"This kid definitely hid his true capabilities. I should have realized it when he slew the Giant Bat Demon." Liu Qiang recalled the first time Chu Feng killed the Blood-sucking Bat Demons, single-handedly taking down three ordinary Bat Demons.

Later, when he faced the Giant Bat Demon, it was as if he was possessed by a Sword God, and just with one strike, he was able to kill it instantly.

If the first time could be attributed to luck, the second time could not possibly be luck or coincidence. It was absolute strength.

At this moment, Liu Qiang is lying on the ground, turned into a clown.

Yet Chu Feng has stolen all the limelight, becoming the center of attention.

Who would dare to laugh at Chu Feng as a coward now?

Lin Yuan?

Chu Feng has proven his strength overwhelmingly, not as a coward at all, but a true warrior.

Those who only talk about how brave and incredible they are, those are B.S. kings, fake warriors.

Invoking strength for trivial matters and bullying others is idiotic. Often, it is these people who die the fastest.

Only those like Chu Feng, who have the capability but do not show off, can always remain wise and cool-headed. When their personal interests are not involved, no matter how much you scold or curse, they do not care. They treat you like a mad dog barking.

But when you truly touch upon my interests, they act decisively without hesitation when the time comes to strike.

This is the true demeanor of a king.

I can be low-profile, but I can also be high-profile at any time.

"Big brother..."

The balding young man watched helplessly as his brother’s body was suddenly split in half. He couldn’t help but let out an extremely mournful and angry shout.

"I will kill you!"

The balding young man pushed Zi Yan back with a sword, turned around, and furiously slashed at Chu Feng with his sword.

This sword, filled with hatred and intent on avenging his brother, was unimaginably terrifying.

Sword light surged as if it was about to split the heavens and earth.

"In my eyes, you are just trash!"

Chu Feng’s words carried disdain, and with the Fast Sword Technique, his strike was swift as a flash of lightning.

In a moment, the world returned to calm.

The balding young man didn’t even have the chance to scream, just clutching his throat and making "heh heh heh" sounds, then collapsed to the ground. One could see a heavy flow of fresh blood seeping through his fingers.

A sword slash to the throat, swiftly killing the enemy, yet giving a different manner of death.

Silence!

A deathly silence all around.

Even Zi Yan, who had a certain understanding of Chu Feng’s strength, couldn’t help but open her mouth wide in shock as she looked at the hero who had slain two formidable enemies and turned the tide—Chu Feng.

If it weren’t for Chu Feng’s intervention, every member of their small team would have perished here.

The three female members would have all been unable to escape and would have completely suffered dishonor.

Senior Sister Ye and the others looked up to Chu Feng with admiration and shock, yet he himself wore a calm expression.

As if killing two extremely strong Rashamon Sect disciples in seconds was just a trivial matter.

Chu Feng walked towards the two corpses, ready to squat down and loot the spoils of war.

"Chu... Senior Brother, I can handle this kind of thing for you! Their bodies are filthy, don’t sully your hands!" Li Guang was certainly a weathervane of a man. He forcibly endured his pain, rushing to help Chu Feng search the two bodies for spoils.

Chu Feng didn’t refuse, just watching coldly.

After displaying absolute strength, the leader of this small team had already shifted from Senior Sister Ye to Chu Feng. As for Liu Qiang, he was even more pushed to the side.

Everyone in the team was scrambling to curry favor with Chu Feng.

To gain his protection when danger arises.

Clinging to the strong is the instinct of the weak. Especially in such a perilous place, this was even more the case.

Li Guang didn’t secretly manipulate anything or withhold any treasures. Instead, he honestly searched and brought out all the items from the two bodies.

Looking at the medicines that were searched out, Zi Yan and the others couldn’t help but feel their faces flush and hearts throb. She spat out "Disgusting, filthy, shameless..." It was hard to imagine that this girl, who didn’t talk much, could actually utter so many phrases.

"Condensing Evil Secret Technique?" Chu Feng was surprised to find that, aside from a pile of silver and gold notes, there was also a page of hand-copied secret book.

It was likely that these two Rashamon Sect disciples secretly memorized it and then wrote it out by heart. Carrying it on their bodies to study and cultivate.

No wonder every sword strike from these two was imbued with Evil Qi, greatly amplifying the power of their sword light.

Chu Feng had some interest in this Condensing Evil Secret Technique.

After briefly reviewing it, he immediately took it. It contained detailed methods for condensing Killing Aura into Evil Qi.

No wonder the disciples of the Rashamon Sect were so fond of killing.

This Condensing Evil Secret Technique, while not considered a particularly sophisticated secret book, was very practical.

Chu Feng planned to find time to cultivate it after this trip to the Sword Tomb was completed.

"This sword is quite good! My Heavy Sword was corroded by the Bat Demon Blood and severely deformed by the Qi Arrow spat by the Giant Bat Demon. It needed to be replaced long ago."

The Treasure Sword wielded by Scarface was dark red all over and felt heavy in hand.

Chu Feng tested it, and it was very good.

Cutting through gold and breaking jade was a breeze. Its toughness and sharpness were both superior. It was several times stronger than the Treasure Sword of Liu Qiang.

"If I’m not mistaken, this sword should have been forged from Crimson Flame Iron refined from Fire Cloud Stone, along with Geng Metal, Zircon, and other Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. Although it can’t be considered a Supreme Treasure Sword, it still qualifies as a superior quality Treasure Sword."

Before obtaining the Supreme Treasure Sword within the Sword Tomb, using this Treasure Sword was quite satisfactory.

Chu Feng noticed that near the base of the Sword Blade, there were the words "Crimson Flame" engraved, with a badge imprinted below. It was likely that this sword was forged by a somewhat famous craftsman.

Ordinary swordsmiths generally do not use badges.

At most, they engrave a simple character.

For example, Yellow Stone Master would engrave a stone or yellow character.

However, the yellow or stone character would be engraved with a unique technique. Thereby creating their own exclusive mark, difficult for others to imitate.

Badges are different, usually only a sword casting family with a reputation or a famous swordsmith has the qualification to use a badge as their mark.

"So you’re called Crimson Flame Sword, quite fitting indeed!"

Chu Feng carefully stored away the selected spoils of war and approached Han Dong and Liu Qiang. He needed to interrogate them, to unearth their secrets.
