The patterns on the hilt of the sword are intricate and exquisite.

Lin Feng tried to inject a wisp of spiritual energy into the sword and immediately sensed the subtle array patterns inside the sword.

Those layers of patterns formed a complete restriction, which was the core of the flying sword.

Although it's just a low-grade magic weapon flying sword, probably no one in the cultivation world would even look at it, but in the Great Wei Dynasty, it's a very good treasure.

That old fellow Zhao Tianlai lived to be 139 years old, and he never bought a flying sword before he died.

Lin Feng felt a sense of anticipation and immediately began to try refining it.

However, spiritual energy is useless for refining flying swords; divine sense is required.

He activated his divine sense, slowly penetrating the inside of the sword, exploring along the array patterns bit by bit.

The restrictions sensed the intrusion of divine sense and instinctively resisted, but in the face of Lin Feng's powerful divine sense, this resistance was utterly insignificant.

In less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Lin Feng had completely refined the flying sword.

In an instant, a strange connection was established between Lin Feng and the flying sword.

It was as if it were no longer an external object, but a part of one's own body, which could be controlled at will.

He was overjoyed and couldn't wait to test the power of the flying sword, but there were too many people around, so he held back and decided to wait until he got back.

Gu Yu watched from the side, completely bewildered, not knowing what Lin Feng was grinning like an idiot with that broken sword.

Before the auction ended, he quietly left Hongfu Temple with Gu Yu.

The two rode back, and it was already late at night. There were hardly any pedestrians on the road.

The two continued on their way, and after walking for a short while, Lin Feng suddenly frowned.

Several people were lying in ambush in the woods by the roadside ahead.

A quick scan with his divine sense revealed that these individuals comprised three acquired and two innate talents.

It's obvious that they were being targeted at the auction earlier.

Ten thousand taels of gold is enough to tempt many people to take risks.

He remained calm and continued walking forward.

Sure enough, just as they reached the edge of the grove, five masked men in black suddenly jumped out from the middle of the road, wielding swords and knives, and blocked their way.

"stop!"

The leader coldly shouted, "Hand over the gold notes you have, and we'll spare your lives!"

Gu Yu's expression changed, and she was about to draw her sword when Lin Feng stopped her.

Lin Feng looked at the group and smiled faintly: "Tsk tsk, you have guts. I'll just use you to test my sword."

Let me see how sharp this sword really is.

The leader sneered, "Kid, don't be stubborn and refuse to listen to reason!"

"If you know what's good for you, hand over the gold notes obediently, and you might save your life."

Lin Feng sighed and shook his head: "That's just asking for trouble."

As soon as he finished speaking, his consciousness stirred.

A black sword light suddenly flashed, so fast that it was impossible to see it.

The five masked men in black only felt a blur before their eyes, followed by a chill on their necks, and then they knew nothing more.

Five heads flew off almost simultaneously, and five corpses crashed to the ground.

Blood gushed out, staining the road red.

Gu Yu was completely stunned, staring blankly at the scene with wide eyes.

She couldn't see anything clearly.

A flash of black light was all that was seen before all five people were dead.

She turned sharply to look at Lin Feng, her voice trembling, "What...what kind of kung fu is this?"

Lin Feng smiled slightly, and with a wave of his hand, the black sword flew back into his hand with a whoosh, without a trace of blood on its blade.

Gu Yu's pupils suddenly contracted upon seeing this scene.

They were born to be instantly defeated.

Decapitating someone from a distance!

Is this... is this the legendary master's technique?!

She exclaimed in disbelief, "Grandmaster Realm?! You...you've broken through to Grandmaster?!"

Lin Feng smiled, not answering directly, but simply saying:

"I just broke through to the Innate Realm a few days ago, and I had some fortuitous encounters these past few days, which allowed me to take another step forward by sheer luck."

Gu Yu was completely dumbfounded.

You just broke through to the Innate Realm a few days ago?

You've become a grandmaster in just a few days?

Is this cultivation speed even human?!

Before Gu Yu could say anything more, Lin Feng said, "Alright, you go first, I'll deal with the body."

Gu Yu said, "They're all dead, why bother with them? Someone will take care of it tomorrow."

Seeing this, Lin Feng said, "Alright, you go first."

"All right"

...

Once Gu Yu's figure disappeared into the night, Lin Feng withdrew his gaze and turned to look at the several corpses by the roadside.

Five masked men in black lay sprawled in pools of blood, their heads rolling nearby, their deaths gruesome.

With a thought, a black lotus appeared between Lin Feng's brows, its eerie light enveloping the five corpses.

Moments later, the five corpses vanished without a trace, as if nothing had ever happened.

Lin Feng wasn't interested in the cultivation levels of these people.

After all, they're not on the same level anymore, so there's no point in saying more.

He mainly wanted to see whether these guys acted on a whim or were instructed by someone else.

Black Lotus quickly sent back a message.

The five of them did indeed act on a whim.

They saw Lin Feng sell 10,000 taels of gold at the auction, and they got evil intentions. They followed him all the way here, intending to rob him under the cover of night.

He was neither instructed nor authorized by anyone; he was simply courting death.

Lin Feng shook his head; there was no useful information.

But it doesn't matter, since I've already killed him, so be it.

He mounted his horse and spurred it on, quickly catching up with Gu Yu, who was walking slowly ahead.

Hearing the sound of hooves behind her, Gu Yu turned around and saw Lin Feng catching up so quickly, which puzzled her.

"Didn't you say you were going to dispose of the body? How come you caught up with us so quickly?"

Lin Feng casually said, "After thinking about it, you're right. It's too much trouble to deal with the corpses so late at night. Let the government handle it tomorrow."

Gu Yu nodded, not thinking much of it.

The two walked side by side and soon arrived at the city gate of the capital.

Unfortunately, it was already late, and the inner city gates were closed. If we wanted to enter the city, we would have to wait until tomorrow morning.

Since Gu Yu couldn't go back, Lin Feng took her back to Fu Man Lou.

The shopkeeper was fiddling with his abacus behind the counter when he saw Lin Feng return with another beautiful woman. His eyes were full of admiration as he looked at Lin Feng.

Lin Feng smiled, too lazy to explain, and pulled Gu Yu upstairs.

Gu Yu kept her head down the whole time, letting Lin Feng pull her along. Her cheeks were already flushed, and even her ears were burning.

Her heart was pounding, thinking that Lin Feng would be consummating their marriage tonight.

To her surprise, she was completely dumbfounded when she entered the room.

The room was brightly lit and bustling with activity.

Not only were Xiao Tao, Xue Yao, Su Shi, and Su Qin there, but even Yu Lan and Liang Bing, who always wore a bamboo hat, were there!

A group of people sat around a table, chatting about something. When Lin Feng entered, they all looked up at him—and Gu Yu, who was being pulled along behind him.

Gu Yu stood there, stunned, her gaze sweeping over the women in the room, her mind buzzing.

Xiao Tao, Xue Yao, Su Shi, and Su Qin are all beauties, especially the twins who are even more stunning.

Although Yu Lan was sickly, her face was exquisitely beautiful.

Liang Bing was wearing a bamboo hat, so her face couldn't be seen, but just by her figure and demeanor, you could tell she was no ordinary person.

This...this is definitely a matriarchal society!

Gu Yu's mood instantly soured.
