Chapter 201: Departure and Return to Jinyan City

Chen Xiner's eyelids moved slightly, and then she slowly opened her eyes. There was still a hint of confusion in her eyes, as if she had not yet fully woken up from her sleep. But when her eyes fell on Lin Feng and Xu Tian not far away, her eyes instantly became clear.

Lin Feng and Xu Tian were sitting by the campfire, talking in low voices. Their faces wore a hint of fatigue, but their eyes gleamed with determination. Their voices were low, as if they were discussing something important.

Chen Xiner watched them quietly, a warm feeling welling up in her heart. In this dangerous world, having them by her side made her feel incredibly safe.

Suddenly, Chen Xiner heard a key word in their conversation—Sixth-Rank Grandmaster. She was startled and immediately sat up straight, saying in surprise, "What? Xu Tian has already reached the Sixth-Rank Grandmaster level?"

Her voice was filled with shock and disbelief. Her eyes were fixed on Xu Tian, ​​as if she was re-examining this familiar friend.

Xu Tian heard Chen Xiner's voice and turned around, a proud smile on his face. He nodded slightly and said, "That's right, Xiner. I am now a sixth-grade Grandmaster."

Chen Xiner's eyes widened. She couldn't believe her ears. She looked at Xu Tian, ​​then at Lin Feng, and said, "How is this possible? How could your strength improve so quickly overnight?"

Lin Feng looked at Chen Xiner with a smile and said, "This is all the result of Xu Tian's own efforts. He absorbed the cultivation of that black-robed man, so his strength has increased so much."

Chen Xiner's gaze fell on Xu Tian again, her eyes filled with admiration and envy. She knew that in this world where the strong prey on the weak, strength was the foundation of survival. Xu Tian's ability to ascend to the realm of a Sixth-Rank Grandmaster overnight was truly a rare opportunity.

Unbeknownst to everyone, a purple line appeared from Xu Tian's right wrist to his elbow. This line was faint, as if telling a mysterious story. But at this moment, everyone's attention was focused on Xu Tian's increasing strength, and no one noticed the purple line.

Finally, the three of them chatted for a while. Lin Feng also told Xu Tian to master the magic cult's skills. He could practice it, but he needed to observe the situation in his body at all times. After all, he was practicing the incomplete magic cult's skills, so he should prevent any unclean things from remaining in his body.

Lin Feng's eyes were filled with concern and worry. He looked at Xu Tian and said, "Xu Tian, ​​you must remember that although the Demon Cult's skills are powerful, they are also full of dangers. You must be cautious and observe your body's condition at all times. If you find anything abnormal, be sure to tell me immediately."

Xu Tian nodded seriously and said, "Lin Feng, don't worry. I will be careful. I know this opportunity is hard to come by, and I will definitely cherish it."

After eating some dry food and drinking some water, the three of them prepared to set off. They all had a determined look on their faces, as if they were fully prepared for the journey ahead.

The three mounted their horses, and the sound of horse hooves echoed on the quiet road, breaking the tranquility of the early morning. They first came to the place where Man Jiawen had fought with the demon sect members last night.

Everything here seemed so silent, as if the fierce battle of last night had never taken place. Lin Feng, Xu Tian, ​​and Chen Xin'er only saw the bodies on the ground, but not Man Jiawen. Those bodies were those of Man Jiawen's fellow apprentices, their bodies shredded to a crisp, having been drained of their cultivation by the demonic cult. And the number of bodies on the ground hadn't changed.

Chen Xiner looked at the body on the ground, a wave of sadness welling up in her heart. She sighed softly and said, "Man Jiawen should have gone back. After all, he is no longer here."

A trace of contemplation flashed across Lin Feng's eyes. He looked at the corpse on the ground, and a strong sense of responsibility surged in his heart. He knew that the power of the Demon Cult was growing stronger and stronger. They had to improve their strength as soon as possible to protect themselves and those around them.

Lin Feng nodded slightly and said, "Well, I reminded Man Jiawen last night and asked him to go back to Jiuhuang Pavilion first. He should have listened to me."

Xu Tian's eyes were filled with anger. He clenched his fists tightly and said, "These demonic cult members are truly despicable. They killed these innocent people so cruelly. We must avenge them."

Chen Xiner nodded and said, "That's right. We can't let these demonic cult members get away with it. We must make them pay the price."

Afterwards, Lin Feng and the other two continued their journey back to Jinyan City. Their figures, illuminated by the sunlight, appeared remarkably resolute, as if declaring their resolve to this challenging world.

Behind them, on the land where fierce battles once took place, a gentle breeze rustled the leaves. The withered corpses lay there quietly, as if telling the tragic story of the previous night. And the road leading to Golden Flame City seemed to be awaiting their return, waiting for them to continue writing their own legendary story.

As they advanced, the scenery on either side of the road constantly changed. The mountains in the distance rose and fell, like a giant dragon winding across the earth. The trees on the hills were lush and vibrant. Occasionally, small animals could be seen flitting through the trees, adding a touch of life to this tranquil world.

The sun shone brightly and warmly on the earth. A gentle breeze blew, bringing a breath of fresh air. Lin Feng, Xu Tian, ​​and Chen Xiner rode their horses, moving forward through this beautiful scenery, their hearts filled with anticipation for the future.

Chen Xiner's eyes gleamed with determination. She knew they still had a long way to go and the future was full of unknown challenges. But she was not afraid, because she had Lin Feng and Xu Tian by her side. They would face all difficulties together.

Xu Tian's face was serious, his heart filled with anger towards the Demon Cult. He secretly vowed to make the Demon Cult pay the price and avenge those innocent people.

Lin Feng's eyes revealed a deep thought. He knew that the challenge they were about to face was not just the Demon Cult, but also many more unknown dangers. But he was not afraid. He believed that as long as they united, they would be able to overcome all difficulties.

They continue to move forward, the sound of their horses' hooves echoing on the road, as if playing a melody of bravery. In this challenging world, they will use their courage and wisdom to write their own legendary story.
