Overbearing Immortal Doctor Chapter 1319 - 1418: A Request

"Can you help me one more time?" Lan Yueliang's bewitching smile held a hint of pleading.

"What is it?" Qin Feng asked indifferently.

"Before you rescued me, Xie Xuan had already dispatched someone to Canghong City to relay the events. The messenger also took my secret Poison Scripture volume and the Sect Leader's token. Both are incredibly important to me. Can you assist me in retrieving them?"

"You wish for me to storm the West Buddha Sect's stronghold and confront the entire organization? You certainly have a high opinion of my capabilities," Qin Feng stated, speechless.

"Not necessarily. Truthfully, when you incapacitated Xie Xuan earlier, he had already secretly arranged for escorts to the West Buddha Sect. It's simply that we haven't encountered them before or since. Currently, there should be numerous masters from the West Buddha Sect stationed on Canghong Mountain." Lan Yue elaborated, "You can defeat them. First, deal with the Xifu Sect masters on Canghong Mountain, and then proceed to Canghong City to confront the others."

"It remains perilous. Why should I lend you my aid?" Qin Feng was hesitant. He had only known this woman for a few days, and she expected him to risk his life for external affairs. It seemed an excessive request.

"Do you still recall the commoners who perished from poisoning?" Lan Yueliang questioned with gravity. "The Poison Sect continues its wicked deeds. However, if I can assume control of the Poison Sect, I can put an end to such atrocities. To stand against Wu Tian, the secret Poison Scripture volume and the Sect Leader's token represent my sole opportunity."

"I recall you mentioning that the secret Poison Scripture volume is vastly inferior to the three Chapters of the Holy Poison. With merely the secret book, you intend to contend with Wu Tian, who has cultivated the three Chapters of Holy Poison?"

"At the very least, it enhances my prospects slightly," Lan Yueliang offered a faint, sorrowful smile.

"Damn it all." Qin Feng rubbed his nose. "I will reconsider. For now, I will escort you out of here."

Lan Yueliang did not press the matter further. She understood the extreme danger involved in eradicating the West Buddha Sect's base. Her acquaintance with Qin Feng was barely a few days old; they were virtual strangers. She had already resigned herself to the possibility that Qin Feng might refuse her request.

Half a day later, amidst the dense forest at the base of Canghong Mountain, Qin Feng moved with caution, shielding Lan Yueliang.

"Are you truly not planning to search for your two companions again?" Lan Yueliang inquired softly.

"Many individuals venture from the periphery deeper inward to seek others. Otherwise, how would they ever be found?" Qin Feng gave a wry smile. "I am aware they are facing hardship. This time, my attempt to locate them inadvertently led me into this entire affair. Perhaps such is the nature of fate."

"Ah." Lan Yueliang sighed. Throughout their journey, she sensed that this "Jian Yi" possessed a profoundly sentimental nature.

"Await me here." Abruptly, Qin Feng's expression hardened, and he vanished.

"I believe we have thoroughly searched this area. Even that Little Sect Leader A Xiu met his demise at his hands. If we fail to locate him, so be it. If we do find him, not only will we forfeit the reward, but we will likely forfeit our lives as well."

Not far from Qin Feng and Lan Yue, two Xifu Sect Disciples ambled along, their faces etched with worry.

Heeding his companion's words, the other dejected Disciple of the Xifu Sect nodded and grumbled, "Blast it all, word has it that brat actually dared to kill the Little Sect Leader A Xiu of our esteemed sect. Does he not comprehend that the Little Sect Leader was the sole heir of the Sect Leader and someone utterly untouchable? In Canghong City, few possess the audacity to provoke our Western Fu Sect."

"Who could have foreseen this? Initially, only the Great Elder and the three Elders were dispatched to avenge the Little Sect Leader's death. Now, not only has vengeance failed, but the Little Sect Leader A Xiu himself has perished. Once this news reaches Canghong City and the Great Leader learns of it, who can predict the orders he will issue?"

"I suspect the Great Leader, A Xiu, has already received the intelligence and is en route. Ah, finding the perpetrator is a minor concern. Should our brothers unfortunately encounter some formidable beast, we would surely meet our end here. I propose we conclude our search for today, submit our report, and perhaps try our luck again tomorrow." One Disciple of the Xifu Sect halted, casting a glance around.

"Ah!"

A blur of motion, and a fierce gust of wind preceded it. The two Xifu Sect Disciples, their cultivation stalled at the Spirit Realm, had barely any time to react before they were sent airborne the moment they tried to stand. They were then directly blown away. Fortunately, the impact wasn't to a fatal area, but the blow still caused them to cough up a significant amount of blood in their agony.

The disparity in power was immense; they were no match at all.

"You can get up and try to run again, but I can't promise I'll be as lenient next time."

The two Xifu Sect Disciples were so petrified they couldn't move, frozen in fear. They believed their misfortune had truly arrived.

Qin Feng was content with the impact of his actions. With a slight smile, he declared, "I will ask questions. Whomever's answers satisfy me, I will let go. The other, who refuses to cooperate, will die here."

"Ask, ask away!" The Xifu Sect Disciples immediately felt as if they'd been granted an immense favor, yelping and scrambling to respond.

Their fawning expressions were truly repulsive, yet Qin Feng had to admit, when it came to extracting information, he actually found these life-clinging cowards rather useful.

"Currently, on Canghong Mountain Range, it's just your Great Elder and the three Elders, and Xie Zhenshan has not yet arrived, correct?"

The two Xifu Sect Disciples exchanged bewildered glances, their palms beaded with sweat. Not only were their locations discovered, but their conversation had been clearly overheard without them noticing a thing. Given such a vast difference in strength, the fact that the three Elders had sent them out to scout was akin to sending them to their deaths.

At this point, neither dared to hesitate, and they promptly replied, "Yes, but word of the Little Sect Leader's demise has already been dispatched. If the Sect Leader learns of it, he will undoubtedly come."

"You don't need to remind me of that," Qin Feng scoffed. "Second question: Did Xie Xuan take a secret manual known as the Poison Scripture, a witchcraft and poison body technique of Magic-level, along with a black trigger finger? Do you know of their whereabouts?"

"They are currently with the Elder. The poison has been purged from them. We were merely awaiting the arrival of the Great Leader A Xiu to present them and appease him."

Qin Feng's eyes narrowed, contemplating the Great Elder and the three Elders of the Ximen Sect. He harbored no fear of opponents at the True Essence Five or True Essence Four levels. Even facing a multitude of lesser cultivators on Canghong Mountain, as long as their cultivation didn't surpass the True Essence realm, he was confident in subduing them.

Observing Qin Feng lost in deep thought, the two disciples from the West Law Sect exchanged glances.

His soft-heartedness is still too apparent—with a few more flattering words, he might just lower his guard!

"Kill him!" Before Qin Feng could fully process their intentions, the sycophantic Xifu Sect disciples suddenly cried out in unison. Almost simultaneously, each produced a venomous hidden weapon from their person.

They were certain that if it struck him, death would be inevitable!

The two West Law Sect disciples, from an extremely close range and with astonishing speed, pushed their Spiritual Power to its zenith and lunged towards Qin Feng.

Qin Feng's expression instantly turned glacial, as if coated in frost, and his hand dropped to the sword at his waist.

One West Wenruen Sect disciple surged forward from the front, aiming his hidden weapon directly at Qin Feng's head, his face contorted ferociously as he roared, "Die!"

Concurrently, a fierce roar accompanied the launch of the first sharp, deadly hidden weapon hurtling towards him.

At that very instant—

The other Xifu Sect disciple attacked from the flank.

One from the front, one from the side, both striking simultaneously.

In a fraction of a second, a white hidden weapon silently streaked toward Qin Feng.

"I was initially considering sparing your lives. What a pity," Qin Feng uttered in a low growl, drawing his longsword in a swift, straight motion.

The sword light, like a phantom, sliced directly through the incoming projectile. The Ximen Sect disciple directly confronting Qin Feng didn't even register Qin Feng's transformed form before his entire body was cleaved in two by the blade.

"Bang!"

The West Buddha Sect disciple's severed body crashed to the ground, blood erupting from the sword's fatal wound.

"Die for me!" Simultaneously, as his companion met his demise, the remaining West Law Sect disciple's expression grew savage. His hidden weapon finally found its mark, piercing from the side towards Qin Feng's left chest!

Clang!

First, a muffled thud resonated from Qin Feng's attire, and then he remained utterly unmoved.

The Xifu Sect disciple's wrist was caught in Qin Feng's other hand!
