Nine Yang Alchemy Emperor
Chapter 35 Third-tier Swordsman

Chapter 35: Chapter 35 Third-tier Swordsman

"Oh my goodness, I’m afraid of you! Just come in with me!" Chu Feng didn’t bother to explain, took her into his room, and then firmly closed the door. "No, you have to leave! Leave immediately!"

Chu Feng really wasn’t heartless, his abilities were limited, he could barely protect himself—how could he take care of this strange female assassin?

"Dare to kick me out, and if I get caught, I’ll immediately rat you out!" The black-clothed woman sat down on a chair, picked up the water jug on the table, poured herself a cup of water, and began to drink.

"You..." Chu Feng didn’t expect her to threaten him. "I could also capture you, hand you over proactively! Then, not only would I be without guilt, but I might even be commended for it!" Taking a deep breath, Chu Feng sneered coldly.

"You can try! Thanks to you, that Continuation Pill has already healed my injuries by fifty to sixty percent. I’ve slashed down at least thirty Imperial Guards in the palace, and I’m not belittling your Sword King Mansion. I could wipe it out with just a flick of my finger!"

Whether she was telling the truth or not, this female assassin must be strong if she had managed to escape from the pursuit of many Imperial Guards.

Chu Feng couldn’t help but feel some regret, this was really a case of ’No good deed goes unpunished’ as in the tale of the farmer who saved a snake only to be bitten by it.

"I won’t live here for nothing, doesn’t your second sister need Sword Qi to be suppressed? I can easily take care of that!" The black-clothed woman must have sneaked into the mansion quite some time ago and overheard a fair amount of secrets.

"Can you really suppress Sword Qi?" A thought struck Chu Feng; if she could truly help his second sister suppress her Sword Qi, that would be wonderful.

It seems impossible to force her to leave now.

Keeping her in the mansion secretly as a hired hand could be beneficial.

The only thing to be careful of is not being discovered.

Hisss!

A dazzling light emerged at her fingertips, like a colorful flame, emitting a cold and dangerous aura.

The entire room was illuminated, allowing Chu Feng to see her appearance more clearly.

Still wearing a black iron mask, it covered her forehead, eyebrows, and most of her face.

Her skin was extremely fair, with a pointed chin, thin red lips, and if he wasn’t mistaken, probably a beautiful melon-seed face. Her figure was also outstanding.

"Sword light!" Chu Feng’s eyes suddenly narrowed.

Being able to cultivate sword light, she must be at least at the Great Sword Master Realm. It’s far superior to the Sword Qi emitted by a Sword Master, at least ten times more powerful and terrifying.

It was truly unstoppable—it could effortlessly tear through steel and pierce through it.

"Even if you are a Great Sword Master, you can’t help someone suppress Sword Qi, right?" Chu Feng was no ignorant country bumpkin; he possessed the memories of Alchemy Venerate. In terms of experience and knowledge, no one could match him.

"I have the Six Yang Sword Veins, what do you think?" The black-clothed woman said disdainfully.

Sword veins come in many types, with the Three Talents Sword Vein being the worst, the Five Elements Sword Veins being slightly better. There are three kinds of special sword veins: Six Yang Sword Veins, Nine Yang Sword Veins, and Nine Yin Sword Veins.

The black-clothed woman actually possessed the rare Six Yang Sword Veins, and with a cultivation level above that of a Great Sword Master, she indeed had the ability to help Chu Feng’s second sister suppress her Sword Qi.

"I’ll harbor you! But you must obey me, or else I will not be lenient!" Even faced with a Great Sword Master, Chu Feng brimmed with confidence. A direct confrontation might not favor him against the black-clothed woman.

But to clandestinely poison her, that would be no difficult task at all.

In a blink, Chu Feng could think of hundreds of poisons and Poison Pills that could control her. In his past life, let alone a Great Sword Master, even a Sword Saint could be enslaved and controlled by him.

The black-clothed woman was somewhat unhappy, but she still agreed to Chu Feng’s conditions. As arranged by Chu Feng, she moved into the secret chamber inside the mansion.

This way, the chances of being exposed would be greatly reduced.

"Without my permission, you’re not allowed to come out!" After saying this, Chu Feng returned to the outer room, adjusted his state, ingested a Pei Yuan Elixir, and began his cultivation.

The Pei Yuan Elixir he had personally refined worked very well.

But this body was truly garbage.

Without sword meridians, the efficiency of the Elixir’s absorption was extremely poor.

Even with the poorest Three Talents Sword Vein, Chu Feng was confident that he could easily break through to the Third-tier Swordsman.

Now, the speed of his cultivation was like that of a snail crawling.

So slow it made one want to cough up blood.

"It seems I have no choice but to use some strong medicine!"

With his own advantage of being able to perform Alchemy, Chu Feng treated elixirs like candy, swallowing the remaining nine Pei Yuan Elixirs in one go.

Boom!

The terrifying energy of the elixirs exploded within him like a fierce flame, rampaging wildly.

"Ugh..."

Chu Feng felt as if his body was about to burst and couldn’t help but let out a pained grunt. He dared to consume so many elixirs at once because he had something to rely on.

He immediately controlled the Nine Yang Strange Fire to re-refine the violent elixir energy, breaking it down.

He made them more gentle, making it easier for his body to absorb them.

...

A night passed in the blink of an eye.

When Chu Feng awoke from his cultivation, it was already broad daylight.

His cultivation level had finally increased by one level. He had gone from a Second Order Swordsman to the Third Rank.

"I must find a way to get back my sword meridians or create a new sword meridian using other methods. Otherwise, it’s too difficult to increase my cultivation!" A trace of bitterness couldn’t help but appear on the corners of Chu Feng’s mouth.

Ten high-quality Pei Yuan Elixirs, plus the help of the Abnormal Fire, had only increased his cultivation by one level, which apart from him, was unheard of in the world.

Getting back the Nine Yang Sword Veins from the Crown Prince in a short period of time, I’m afraid, will be very difficult.

But creating a new sword meridian is feasible.

With Chu Feng’s alchemy skills, concocting a Fake Meridian Pill was not a difficult matter.

However, this method carried great risks. If he couldn’t reclaim his real sword meridians in time, he would be killed by the Sword Qi that he had cultivated.

Just like Chu Feng’s second sister who had her Heart Meridian severed by Sword Qi and was gravely wounded and near death.

Faint sounds of noisy commotion were heard coming in.

"Not good, could it be that the Imperial Guards have come to search the Sword King Mansion?" Chu Feng’s mind tensed up, and he quickly pushed the door to step out.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw someone sneaking a peek outside, slyly.

It was none other than the servant Ah-Chang, who had been treated once by Chu Feng.

"Good morning, Third Prince!" Ah-Chang peered into the room, sniffing with his nose and his face showing a hint of confusion. "It seems like there’s the scent of a woman! Did the Third Prince bring a woman back?"

Chu Feng had to admit he was thoroughly impressed by this dog slave’s nose.

He could actually sniff that out.

Yet his face showed no expression, and he coldly said, "Then you better look carefully, to see if it’s your mother here, or your sister here!" After speaking, Chu Feng opened the door wide, deliberately letting Ah-Chang get a good look.

"Cough... It was just a joke, Third Prince," Ah-Chang said dejectedly, having discovered nothing and instead being teased by Chu Feng.

"Why is it so noisy outside?" Chu Feng looked towards the direction of the front house.
