Chapter 95: Return

Ye Cheng slowly stepped towards the Bandit Head with a sword in his hand and an icy expression on his face.

"I am from the Bright Moon Country's Ming Family and my Big Brother is Ming Family's Patriarch. If you dare to kill me, you will surely die?" The Bandit Head howled when he saw Ye Cheng coming towards him with a sword in hand.

Bright Moon Country's Ming Family? Everyone present was startled.

This Ming Family was one of the first-grade families of the Bright Moon Country. This group of bandits was actually supported by the Ming Family? No wonder their average strength was so high, incomparable to those previous bandit groups.

Before anyone could react, the sword in Qin Feng's hands slashed across his throat, and the Bandit Head grasped at his own throat while looking at Qin Feng with disbelief.

"And I am Heavenly Star Sect's Qin Feng." Qin Feng 'introduced' himself while looking at the dying bandit head.

Bright Moon Country's Ming Family? So what?

Qin Feng's fury only subsided after killing the Bandits' Head. These bandits actually massacred an entire village just to obtain some profit and make a ruckus in the Blue Star Country. They deserve to die.

Moments after Qin Feng slit the throat of the Bandits' Head, the ground started to shake, and within seconds came the sounds of soldiers and of neighing horses. It seems like the Blue Star Country's border army had arrived.

A short while later, about a thousand soldiers from two brigades surrounded Qin Feng and the rest. These soldiers arrived at the square and saw the mountain of corpses from the townspeople and the bandits, and the expression on their faces changed.

Although none of them knew what took place here, each of them could guess roughly what happened.

"General Ren, look. That one looks like the Bright Moon Country's Ming Family's Ming Fei, the Ming Family Patriarch's younger brother." A Lieutenant General suddenly pointed at the Bandit Head's corpse while talking to General Ren Shi.

General Ren Shi's gaze followed the direction of the finger, and when he saw the Bandit Head's body, he frowned. Yes, it was Ming Fei. This Ming Fei had crossed the border and did some crimes, but he escaped the last time, and this was the reason Ren Shi recognized Ming Fei.

"General Ren, with Ming Fei's death, this matter will be difficult to handle. Ming Wang definitely would pressure us through the Bright Moon Country's King to make us hand over the murderer." That Lieutenant General said.

Ren Shi nodded. If it was someone with no background then it was fine, but the one who died was Ming Fei, so it was bound to bring problems.

"Who killed him?" Ren Shi pointed at the Bandit Head and asked coldly.

"I killed him." Qin Feng replied indifferently. There was not a single trace of hesitation on his face when he admitted that it was him who killed the Bandits' Head.

"Go capture him!" Ren Shi signaled the soldiers and told them to capture Qin Feng.

"Yes General!"

Saying this, several soldiers surrounded Qin Feng.

"Stop! You dare?!" Ye Cheng snapped angrily and came forward with the students from the Heavenly Star Sect, glaring with wrath at Ren Shi and the soldiers.

There was a faint cold smile on Qin Feng as he watched Ren Shi, and his calm-voiced sounded, "According to the law of any country, killing border bandits is a meritorious deed that will be awarded. So, I would like to ask, why would you not follow the Country's law and want to capture me instead?"

Ren Shi choked on Qin Feng's words.

"Presumptuous! Little brat, you committed a cruel murder, yet you're still dreaming of the meritorious award?" Ren Shi had yet to speak before the Lieutenant General next to him had already flared up: "Come, arrest that little brat!"

However, before they could get close to Qin Feng, those soldiers were slapped away by Ye Cheng and the two other Early Golden Core Realm cultivators.

"You actually dare to rebel?!" That Lieutenant General saw the three people obstructing his soldiers and questioned them aloud, accusing Ye Cheng and the two other students of a capital crime.

"What an audacious accusation!" At this point, a voice sounded.

"Who is this? Roll out here!" That Lieutenant General barked.

A path opened amongst the students as a beautiful girl walked out to the front. It was Su Murong. When Ren Shi saw Su Murong, the skin of his face was taut with tension. However, the Lieutenant General did not seem to recognize the situation, he said to soldiers, "Go and arrest her together with that brat!"

"Stop!" Ren Shi quickly roared, and before the shocked eyes of the Lieutenant General and the soldiers, Ren Shi jumped down from his horse and arrived in front of Su Murong in hurried steps. He knelt down on one knee and saluted: "Ren Shi greets Her Royal Highness Second Princess!"

Her Royal Highness?

Second Princess?

That Lieutenant General and the soldiers were shocked into a daze. When recovered, each quickly alighted their horses and knelt down: "Saluting Her Royal Highness Second Princess!"

That Lieutenant General bowed so low he was practically kissing the ground in salute, and cold sweat trickled down the side of his face.

"All of you rise, but as for you, continue kneeling!" Su Murong permitted Ren Shi and all the other soldiers to stand up except for that one Lieutenant General that was told to continue kneeling on the ground.

Ren Shi stood up and came up beside Su Murong whereas Su Murong observed the Lieutenant General with cold eyes, saying, "You ordered to have me arrested?"

The beads of cold sweat on the Lieutenant General's face grew bigger, and kowtowing ruthlessly, he pleaded, "I did not realize it was Her Royal Highness. I hope Her Royal Highness Second Princess forgives this one's mistake!"

Su Murong continued without heeding to the Lieutenant General, "You said we wanted to rebel?"

That Lieutenant General ashen instantly, not knowing how to answer. In his heart, he was already prepared to die.

Then, Su Murong turned around and looked at Ren Shi, a look that made Ren Shi's hair stand up in fear.

"You wanted to arrest him. Do you know who he is?" Su Murong asked Ren Shi as her eyes indicated towards Qin Feng. Ren Shi obediently looked towards Qin Feng.

"He is Qin Feng!" Su Murong stated.

"What? Qin Feng!"

"He is that Qin Feng?"

Ren Shi, the Lieutenant General, and the many soldiers' heads made an abrupt turn in Qin Feng's direction and without a doubt, each and every one of them was greatly shocked.

Qin Feng, broke through in cultivation two times on the Nine Sky Stairway. The Blue Star Country's first talent!

Qin Feng, stepped on the 90th step of the Nine Star Stairway, has the talent to become a Heaven Ascension Realm cultivator!

It turns out that this message had already spread far and wide throughout the Blue Star Country, from the commoners below to the Generals and nobles above, who does not know about him? Even some of the prominent forces in the neighboring countries knew a talented youth had appeared in the Blue Star Country and was taken in as a disciple by the Heavenly Star Sect.

It was Ren Shi's turn to break out in a cold sweat.

"This matter, I will report to my Royal Father!" Su Murong added.

Ren Shi and his little Lieutenant General quivered.

The two of them were still rooted to the spot even after the team from Heavenly Star Sect left.

Qin Feng was shocked when he heard Ren Shi and others referring to Su Murong as the Second Princess. He never thought that Su Murong, whom he met by chance in the Heavenly Star Sect and even gave her some lessons regarding the Wind Pill on his own accord, turned out to be the Second Princess of the Blue Star Country.

After leaving the little town, Qin Feng's group did not return to Tianwu City, instead, they moved on to other small towns to kill bandits.

Two months later, the team headed back to the Tianwu City from the border before using the Transfer Array and going back to the Heavenly Star Sect.

After the team returned, due to meritorious deeds for annihilating bandits at the border, rewards from the Blue Star Country were quickly awarded down. According to law, the rate of one bandit was one hundred Low-Grade Spirit Stones, and Qin Feng received more than five thousand Low-Grade Spirit stones as a reward.

Not long after that, Ren Shi was demoted to Lieutenant General, and the Lieutenant General was removed from the military with a notice.

The principal of the Heavenly Star Sect was very satisfied with the report that Ye Cheng reported after their return.

The principal never thought Qin Feng to be this powerful. He was quite shocked at first before enthusiasm burst forth on his face.
