"Amazing! You're absolutely incredible!"
Lin Shuai Nan rushed over, having completely become Ling Feng's most fervent fan.
He even got carried away, twisting his body in place, his backside nearly flying off. His flamboyant dance moves were truly unbearable to watch, yet possessed an indescribable, almost demonic charm!
Xiu Xiu's mouth hung open in shock, unable to utter a word.
"Xiu, did you see that? This is the power of a true celestial being on land, slaying dragons in the sky, completely unharmed!" Bai Yun Yan said, his shock evident.
Even though he had been mentally prepared, he was still stunned by the terrifying power Ling Feng displayed.
He was right; Ling Feng was indeed unharmed, and his sportswear had been replaced with a brand new set at some point.
He strode across the nearly dried-up pond and reached out to take the Jade Heart Fruit.
On a withered tree branch, there were only three fruits, emitting a somewhat intoxicating aroma, with a hint of alcohol.
Bai Yun Yan paid no mind to Ling Feng taking the Jade Heart Fruit from his hand, instead smiling and saying, "No wonder you wouldn't leave, you simply didn't care about this flood dragon."
Ling Feng smiled indifferently and said, "It's just a flood dragon that has recently undergone transformation. It's still a hundred thousand miles away from becoming a true dragon!"
Bai Yun Yan nodded solemnly and casually asked, "Are there true dragons in this world?"
"I don't know!"
Ling Feng shook his head. After all, dragons were merely legends, myths.
After a moment's thought, he added, "Perhaps in many years to come, flood dragons will transform into dragons!"
Bai Yun Yan nodded slightly. This was a highly likely possibility, as the world was undergoing immense changes with the gradual resurgence of spiritual energy.
No one knew what it would become in the future.
He shook his head, pushing away such distant thoughts, and looked at the flood dragon's body, saying, "Tsk tsk, this monster is a treasure from head to tail. Burning it like this, isn't that a waste?"
Facing Bai Yun Yan's teasing, Ling Feng merely offered a faint smile.
Encountering such a fierce beast was a stroke of luck. As for wasting it, that was completely impossible for Ling Feng.
The flames continued to burn, transforming into streams of vital energy that flowed into him, making him feel incredibly comfortable. His vital energy surged like a dragon, and his blood churned.
The more powerful these mutated fierce beasts were, the more they served as supplements to strengthen Ling Feng's physique.
In just one minute, the flood dragon's massive body was reduced to a pile of white bones!
However, those ghastly white bones made the scene even more terrifying.
"Big brother, you can breathe fire? Are you related to the Calabash Brothers?"
Lin Shuai Nan's question almost made Ling Feng spit blood.
Ling Feng, in a good mood after obtaining the spiritual medicine, decided to ignore him.
Xiu Xiu walked over and looked closely at the flood dragon's skeletal remains, involuntarily swallowing. "How did such a monster grow so large? It's truly unbelievable!"
Lin Shuai Nan also nodded thoughtfully, "It is indeed too rare. What a pity, if only there were a young one, we could take it back and raise it."
"Raise what? Do you think this is a pet? You idiot!"
Xiu Xiu scolded him sharply and landed a small fist on Lin Shuai Nan.
Only this lunatic would think of taking something like this back as a pet.
The monster was dealt with, and the spiritual medicine was obtained. The outcome of this trip was perfect!
Xiu Xiu and Lin Shuai Nan were in high spirits.
But at that moment, Qiu Yun Yan ran up to the group.
Her face was flushed, and her eyes shyly fixed on Ling Feng. She fidgeted and said, "Thank you for saving me earlier!"
"You're welcome!"
Ling Feng replied indifferently, a chilling aura inexplicably emanating from him.
Bai Yun Yan sensed it most clearly and looked puzzled. What? Was there still something wrong?
"Um, can you give me a Jade Heart Fruit?"
Qiu Yun Yan's beautiful eyes did not blink, staring directly at the Jade Heart Fruit in Ling Feng's hand.
This item was too important to her, but asking Ling Feng for it now made her feel a bit embarrassed!
"No!"
Lin Shuai Nan was the first to jump out.
The Jade Heart Fruit was too precious; it was needed to save Su Xing Yan!
Moreover, Lin Shuai Nan had clearly seen how Qiu Yun Yan had disregarded the lives of her subordinates along the way.
It could be said that Lin Shuai Nan had no good feelings towards Qiu Yun Yan at all.
He even thought this rich young lady was rather venomous and naturally refused to give her the Jade Heart Fruit!
Xiu Xiu also stared at Ling Feng, shaking her head repeatedly!
"I... I'm sorry. I know my request is very excessive, but I'm willing to pay for it to compensate for your losses..."
"No need!"
Ling Feng indifferently interrupted Qiu Yun Yan and then picked a Jade Heart Fruit and tossed it to her.
"Ling Feng!"
Xiu Xiu's expression changed drastically upon seeing this.
Qiu Yun Yan nervously cupped the small Jade Heart Fruit in her hands, looking at Ling Feng with astonishment, her beautiful eyes misting over. She found herself increasingly unable to resist this man!
"Saving Elder Su only requires one, and there are still two left!"
Ling Feng explained to Xiu Xiu, then with a flick of his wrist, the item in his hand vanished.
He could tell that although Qiu Yun Yan was spoiled and arrogant, her nature was not bad. She had risked coming here to find the Jade Heart Fruit to save someone.
"Huh? Where did it go? Big brother, can you do magic?"
Lin Shuai Nan exclaimed in surprise, jumping up.
"Thank, thank you! I will definitely repay you!" It was difficult for Qiu Yun Yan to say thank you to someone repeatedly, and she carefully treasured the Jade Heart Fruit in her hands.
But just then.
Bang!
A gunshot exploded through the entire valley!
Everyone was startled by the sudden gunshot.
At the same time, Ling Feng raised his hand and threw Qiu Yun Yan aside. A bullet grazed his shoulder and passed through.
"Huh? An ambush!"
Bai Yun Yan exclaimed, his heart suddenly alerted as he looked at Ling Feng's retreating back.
From the beginning, Bai Yun Yan had felt that Ling Feng was somewhat off, and now he finally understood what was wrong.
There had been someone ambushing in the dense mountain forest all along, or rather, someone tracking them.
And Ling Feng had definitely sensed the presence of these people from the start.
"A C5pt sniper rifle, one shot is enough to blow a head to pieces!"
Xiu Xiu looked at the large tree behind them that had exploded, a bullet casing falling down. Her beautiful eyes widened in surprise.
Lin Shuai Nan immediately became curious, "Xiu Xiu, you actually know about firearms?"
"Stop the nonsense, find cover!"
Ling Feng snapped, his expression grim.
He had already sensed these followers but didn't know their purpose and thought they would reveal themselves at the right time.
As it turned out, they had brought a sniper!
Moreover, this sniper had a strong ability to conceal their presence. Without careful sensing, Ling Feng couldn't pinpoint their location.
However, once the opponent fired, their position would be completely exposed to him!
Unfortunately, Lin Shuai Nan and the others' reaction speed was still a bit slow.
"Fire!"
A command rang out from the forest, followed by countless bullets being fired wildly from the woods.
"Ah!"
"Ah!"
...
