Xiao Yifeng’s eyes closed, and his hands formed one seal after another, merging into the nine superior-grade spiritual blades, thereby thoroughly binding them to him as their master.
Soon, Xiao Yifeng felt a close connection with the nine flying daggers, and he completely controlled them.
Upon opening his eyes, the nine flying daggers once again trembled, bursting forth with blinding, sharp golden light, filled with an extremely powerful aura.
Nine superior-grade spiritual blades, forged from the same material and unified as one—when combined in attack, their power could even surpass that of a top-grade spiritual weapon.
Xiao Yifeng’s eyes suddenly sharpened, and one of the flying daggers flew up directly, freely traversing the chamber and tracing arcs of golden light.
The next second, the golden flying dagger slammed into one of the chamber walls, letting out a deafening roar and blasting a huge gap in the wall, with cracks spreading from where the dagger had struck.
Hearing the commotion, Tang Tianming hurried in and, seeing the scene before him, his eyes flashed with shock.
Xiao Yifeng nodded, waved his hand, and the dagger stuck in the wall entered his body, as did the other eight flying daggers—all of them were taken into his body.
"You really have a deep connection with my Tang Sect, these Flying Dagger Techniques and the nine daggers seem tailor-made for you."
Tang Tianming looked at Xiao Yifeng with eyes sparkling with admiration.
"I also owe it to Elder Tang; otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to obtain these Flying Dagger Techniques and these nine precious daggers."
"I have a gift for you as well, as a small token of my gratitude!"
As he spoke, Tang Tianming took out three black balls the size of ping-pong balls and handed them to Xiao Yifeng.
A puzzled look crossed Xiao Yifeng’s face as he looked at the three black balls.
"These are Poison Thunders I’ve developed, containing a kind of extremely terrifying poison. You just need to channel your True Qi into them and throw them. They will release this terrible poison and can instantly kill a martial artist who is Entering the Saint Realm."
Tang Tianming said directly.
Shock flashed across Xiao Yifeng’s eyes. He hadn’t expected such strength from these items, though they reminded him of something Elder Tang Shengyi had used in the Underground Mausoleum, only much more potent, even impossible for those in the Saint Realm to withstand.
"Yes, the poison in these Poison Thunders is a combination of more than a dozen extremely rare and deadly toxins, truly one of the world’s unique poisons. Moreover, this poison can meld with True Qi."
"So even a strong one Entering Sanctity who uses True Qi to protect themselves cannot prevent the invasion of this poison and will only have one path left: death. However, crafting them is quite troublesome, and I only have three. I’m giving them all to you, hoping they can help you when the time comes!"
Tang Tianming said indifferently.
"Thank you, Uncle Tang!"
Xiao Yifeng bowed in gratitude. These three Poison Thunders were essentially giving him three chances to save his life.
Several hours later, Xiao Yifeng and Tang Shengyi stood at the gateway of the Tang Sect mansion.
"Do you really have to leave so soon?"
Tang Shengyi looked at Xiao Yifeng and spoke, her eyes flickering with complex emotions.
"Mm, I’ve stayed here for several days; it’s time to go back. Thank you for your warm hospitality."
Xiao Yifeng smiled faintly.
"I should thank you for helping Tang Sect with so much,"
"We’re friends; no need for such formalities in the future. But, how do you plan to handle Medicine King Valley?"
Xiao Yifeng asked curiously.
"Medicine King Valley controls the Elixir resources of the entire Martial Arts World and is on good terms with many Sect Families. Even though they nearly destroyed Tang Sect, besides condemning them, it’s hard for us to do much else."
"If we tried, other powers would stop us before we could act. However, you should be careful in case Yao Haoran targets you. Contact me if anything comes up. The car is waiting for you downstairs."
Tang Shengyi spoke up.
"Got it, thanks for the heads-up!"
After saying this, Xiao Yifeng left Tang Sect. His visit this time had been greatly rewarding; it certainly hadn’t been a wasted trip.
He had obtained the Flying Dagger Technique and nine Superior Grade Spiritual Blades, along with the three shockingly powerful Poison Thunders—a tremendous gain indeed.
Tang Shengyi stood there, silently watching Xiao Yifeng’s fading figure as he walked away.
"The person’s long gone; what are you still looking at?"
Tang Shihai appeared beside Tang Shengyi out of nowhere, his sudden voice startling her.
"Father, you scared me to death!"
Tang Shengyi exclaimed, patting her chest in shock.
"Do you have some feelings for Little Feng?"
Tang Shihai fixed his gaze on Tang Shengyi, whose face turned red at the question.
"Of course not, Father, don’t talk nonsense. He’s engaged!"
Tang Shengyi’s face flushed as she quickly denied it, though her eyes flickered evasively.
"Having a fiancée is no issue; we Martial Artists don’t need to follow the customs of the Secular World. Polygamy isn’t unheard of."
Tang Shihai said with an indifferent expression.
"Alright, Father, stop talking nonsense!"
Tang Shengyi responded and returned inside the Tang Sect, leaving Tang Shihai to chuckle to himself.
Reaching the bottom of the mountain, Xiao Yifeng saw the man in the black shirt who had brought them there. The latter respectfully opened the car door, and Xiao Yifeng got in, with the car heading towards Shu Capital City.
After an hour or two, the car arrived in Shu Capital City.
But soon there was a roaring sound as the car was hit hard in the rear by an Audi behind, sending the vehicle lurching forward several meters.
Seeing this, the man in the black shirt’s face changed, his brow furrowing tight.
"Hey, how the hell do you drive? If you’re blocking the way, don’t you know to move aside? Move now, or we’ll smash your car!"
Several people got out of the Audis behind them, came up to Xiao Yifeng’s car, and started pounding on the window, cursing rudely.
The man in the black shirt’s expression darkened; he got out of the car and said, "It was your car that hit ours!"
"If you’re not driving fast enough, of course, I’m going to hit you. Move it, don’t delay our boss’s business, or you’ll regret it!"
A heavily tattooed man with an arrogant look pointed at the man in the black shirt, who suddenly threw a punch, knocking the tattooed man to the ground.
Seeing their companion floored, the rest became enraged and started to attack, only for the man in the black shirt to not hold back, taking them all down.
At that moment, a group of menacing men got out of the three Audi cars behind them and surrounded the scene.
