C38 Hyacinth

While Hong Ling was still stunned, Lian Chengyue had eaten more than half of the deer.

Without a doubt, because of the boundless blood energy in their bodies, cultivators needed to eat more food when replenishing their consumed blood and Qi.

However, for someone like Lian Chengyue, who had just eaten half of a deer, it was already a little shocking, and Hong Ling himself had also eaten a lot. Although he felt that it was unbelievable, he could still accept it.

"Miss Lian Cheng, what do you plan to do next? Do you want to go home or continue training in this Shiwan Mountain?" Hong Ling went to the stream to wash his hands and asked.

Lian Chengyue's footsteps were a little slow, because she was full. After she washed up, she looked at Hong Ling with a bit of helplessness.

"Go home? When I came out, I told my brother that if I didn't beat you, I wouldn't be in a rush to go back. Unless you return to your Tianhuang City, I will follow you until I defeat you! "

Lian Chengyue clenched her fist and shook it in front of Hong Ling's eyes, full of fighting spirit.

Hong Ling was immediately stunned, what the hell was going on, he would only return after defeating him. If she couldn't defeat him, wouldn't that mean that this girl was planning on eating and drinking with him?

Moreover, in this old forest, it would not be convenient for a man and a woman to follow each other. There shouldn't be any problems with this girl's brain, right?

Hong Ling was such a large person, yet he still had to follow him. It was unknown when he would be able to accomplish his original goal of entering the mountain. In order to enter the mountain this time, he had to first learn three high grade Profound Rank martial skills, and then hunt and practice Demonic Beast s.

In the early morning of the next day, Hong Ling quickly rushed across the treetops. Not far behind him, Lian Chengyue leisurely hung him up with his hands crossed in front of his chest in interest.

They had only walked for less than four hours in the forest before Lian Chengyue successfully scared off three Demonic Beast s and saved several wild beasts that were about to be bitten to death. These wild beasts were just some small animals like rabbit and fox.

Seeing her overflowing love, Hong Ling did not object, but because of this, he wanted to complete his original goal of going out to train, and instead wanted to travel with Lian Chengyue.

After half a month had passed, Hong Ling's harvest was almost negligible. On the other hand, Lian Chengyue pestered him to learn some basic survival skills, but after she roasted the fish, threw the rock into the fire and caused it to explode, and accidentally burned a small part of the forest, the youth had made up his mind to no longer let her be in charge of preparing the food.

It was not that Hong Ling's stomach was not good, but during the few days when Lian Chengyue was preparing the food, his entire stomach was on the verge of collapse. The food that made was not good for his stomach, but after Lian Chengyue tried eating the food, he asked the youth to make a new dish.

Now that Hong Ling had seen her preparing food, he felt a sense of security, as if she would never be able to recover from it.

Lian Chengyue was actually quite happy. With Hong Ling as her experimental subject, no matter how much she wasted the ingredients, she wouldn't feel it was a pity. Furthermore, as a cultivator with abundant resources in the Shiwan Mountain, naturally, she wouldn't worry about food.

In the dense forest, Lian Chengyue looked at the youth who was constantly jumping between the treetops in front of him. He wanted to quicken his pace to catch up, but he discovered that it was simply impossible to keep up with Hong Ling's footsteps.

"In such a short period of time, how did this fellow learn the Fish Dragon Step?"

Lian Chengyue was puzzled. The Fish Dragon Steps was a famous high grade Profound Rank footwork, it had always been very difficult to cultivate, but Hong Ling was able to master it so quickly.

Hong Ling was also helpless. The reason he learnt the Fish Dragon Steps so quickly was not only because he himself possessed the dragon's bloodline, but also because Lian Chengyue always scared away the Demonic Beast in advance. He had no choice but to first raise his weakest movement technique so that he could catch up with the bodies of the Demonic Beast.

Lian Chengyue had never seen such a talented individual. Other than feeling amazed, their curiosity towards Hong Ling had also grown more and more. When the two of them reached the depths of the forest, they felt like they were going to break away from the periphery of Shiwan Mountain. From here on out, it was the territory where Demonic Beast frequently appeared.

Hong Ling turned his head and looked at Lian Chengyue who had nothing to do, and his eyes became serious.

"Lian Chengyue, you really have thought it through, once we pass the outskirts of the Shiwan Mountain, I am afraid that we will have a slim chance of survival, at that time, I cannot guarantee that I can bring you out safely, are you sure that you want to come with me?"

When he said those words, he was very sincere. After all, after being together with her for so many days, he had already treated Lian Chengyue as his friend.

Lian Chengyue was a little unhappy. Whenever this fellow talked about proper business, he would call her by her real name.

"I already said, don't call me Lian Chengyue in the future, just call me Ah Yue. If you continue like this, next time I'll let the Demonic Beast you want to kill go!"

Lian Chengyue stared intently at Hong Ling, causing his scalp to go numb.

"Alright, Ah Yue! You really want to follow me deeper into the Shiwan Mountain? " Hong Ling asked with a bitter smile. Towards a young miss of an aristocratic family like Lian Chengyue, he really did not dare to take her on an adventure.

If something really happened, Lian Chengyu would definitely tear him apart. Furthermore, from what he said, Lian Chengyue did not seem to be from the Tianhuang City, but his background was very deep.

"Hmph, what? This lady following you makes you feel very ashamed, or do you think that since this Shiwan Mountain belongs to your family, I can't come?" The young girl let out a charming snort, her face carrying a trace of tenacity.

Looking at Lian Chengyue's unreasonable and unreasonable appearance, Hong Ling felt a headache. Seems like Lian Chengyue was determined to follow him into the depths of Shiwan Mountain.

Seeing that she was insisting, the youth did not say anymore. No matter what, he did not mean that Lian Chengyue would really be in danger from the Shiwan Mountain, the two's strength were similar, if they really met with danger, when working together, there was a large chance that they would be able to safely escape.

"Hong Ling, I am very curious, how did you manage to master the Flowing Water Palm Technique, the Fish Dragon Steps, and the Dragon's Roar Sword Technique in such a short period of time?" Lian Chengyue, who was beside Hong Ling, could not help but ask. At this time, the two were stepping on soft leaves, slowly moving forward in the forest.

Hong Ling could not help but facepalm. In the days after Lian Chengyue found her, he had been asked this question many times. If he told her that his talent was exceptional, she would probably fall out with him.

Seeing that Hong Ling did not answer her question, Lian Chengyue chased after him once more. She truly could not understand how this young man could have such a high comprehension ability. That set of Flowing Water Palm techniques, he had already grasped the essence in less than ten days.

Sometimes, one had to believe that there were some people who were born to be monsters. Any cultivation method or martial skill, in their hands, could display earth-shattering might in a short period of time.

Maybe Hong Ling didn't have a strong cultivation base as a foundation, so he was unable to fully display the might of his Profound Ranked Martial Technique, but his own comprehension ability was truly shocking.

At this time, Hong Ling was looking at the enormous two-headed snake in front of him, his eyes filled with a heavy expression. Lian Chengyue stood at the side, the longsword in his hand constantly humming.

The big guy in front of them was a two-headed giant snake with a perfect Essence Refinement into Qi, its strength catching up to the early stage of Qi Refinement into Spirit.

The Demonic Beast s were divided into two parts, the first stage being Essence Refinement into Qi, the second stage being Qi Refinement into Spirit, and so on. With this, the strength of the Two-headed Giant Snake had reached the peak of the first stage, and after a few more days, it would probably be able to successfully advance to a second stage being a strong Demonic Beast.

Because it had two heads, even if Hong Ling and Lian Chengyue worked together, they would still be unable to shake it.

With both swords in hand, he stared unwaveringly at the giant serpent. Ever since he had gone through the Heavenly Desolate Martial Arts Conference, he had realized that the Hundred Smelting Pattern Steel Sword was much better than an ordinary sword. Thus, he had spent a large sum of money to purchase a few Hundred Smelting Pattern Steel Swords in case he needed them.

He never thought that in the depths of the Shiwan Mountain, there would actually be a Twin-headed Snake that would force him to use the Twin Swords.

"Ah Yue, step back. Leave this Twin-headed Snake to me. I want to see if it can block two of my swords!" Hong Ling said as he turned his head towards Lian Chengyue.

His current cultivation was at its peak condition, and although he was only at the middle stage of the Essence Refinement into Qi, the strength of his Authentic Qi caused even Lian Chengyue to be overwhelmed with shock.

Seeing her nod and retreat, Hong Ling's figure flashed, arriving in front of the huge snake in a flash. The two long swords in his hands slashed out, straight towards the two-headed snake's head.

This Twin-headed Snake's skin was extremely tough, even Hong Ling's Dragon Roar Sword Qi could not break its defense, but, this did not mean that the young man could not do anything to it.

To him, as long as the strength of this beast hadn't reached the level of Second Order, the threat it posed to him wouldn't be fatal.

Two sword intents emerged from the two swords, Hong Ling looked at the gigantic snake head he was about to hit, both swords ruthlessly slashing at their skulls.

Boom! The youth was forced back. The giant snake roared, and two deep sword slashes were left behind on its two heads.

"He really broke through the defense of this giant snake!"

Lian Chengyue cried out in alarm. She did not expect that the gigantic snake, which she could not injure even the slightest bit with her full strength, would actually have its defense directly broken by Hong Ling's two swords.

"Could it be that the difference between him and I is this enormous?" Lian Chengyue was a little dejected. A long time ago, when she first came to the Tianhuang City, she was in high spirits. She did not expect that today, she actually felt an enormous sense of defeat.

Her talent was not bad, but she could not comprehend sword intent, and it was difficult for her to grasp many high grade Profound Rank martial skills. Now, in front of Hong Ling, she was deeply aware that this young man had left her behind on the road of martial arts, more and more.

It was true that she came to find Hong Ling because she did not want to admit defeat, but after getting along with him for the past few days, she had already developed different emotions. She was very afraid, whether or not she still had the courage to chase after this young man once he had grown to an even higher level.

Hong Ling naturally did not think that Lian Chengyue would have thought of this in such a short period of time. To him, the most important thing right now was to kill this huge snake, if not, both he and the young lady would be in great danger.
