DRAGON EMPEROR

CHAPTER 39 The Blood of the Lightning Leopard

The Duanmu family was indeed powerful for having gathered so many experts because there were only a hundred people among the new apprentices who had been cultivating to the Realm Master level.

The four White Tiger Hall disciples attacked Lu Ming and Feng Wu with all their might.

Chirp!

Chirps rang out as Feng Wu released his blood meridians. The fifth Level blood meridian was shaped like an Ice Soul Bird.

The Fifth Level blood meridian was considered one of the top meridians among the new apprentices.

"Kill!" Feng Wu shouted as he attacked.

Lu Ming moved quickly as he began his attack.

Clangs! Clangs!

Symphonies of weapon clashes and Essential Qi explosions rang out as they fought.

There was only one person from the other party who was fighting Feng Wu. The other three were against Lu Ming.

Nevertheless, Lu Ming fought quickly, and his Essential Qi as well as his swordsmanship were invincible.

Lu Ming cut one of his three opponents into two in just a few moves.

Blood spilled again as Lu Ming's sword pierced the other opponent's heart.

The three Realm Master martial artists were as fragile as the baby in front of Lu Ming. They don't even have a chance. Finally, only Duanmu disciples were left.

‘How is Lu Ming so powerful? Didn't old geyser Lu Yunxiong say that he was only a low-level martial artist?! He lied to us!' disciple Duanmu roared in his heart. He did not care anymore about the Lightning Leopard as he tried to run for his life.

From behind, Lu Ming immediately pierced his heart with his sword. It's impossible to run from him.

Uhh!

At the same time, a desperate cry sounded on the other side of the battlefield as Feng Wu killed the other White Tiger Hall disciples.

Fifth Level blood meridians brought more destruction than Third Level blood meridians! His eyes flickered as he looked at Lu Ming.

'The three martial artists who were on the same level as him were no match for him at all, and all of that happened even before he released his blood meridians. That's insane! No wonder Brother Mu Lan placed great expectations on him!' Feng Wu pondered.

Lu Ming walked towards the Lightning Leopard.

“Huhuuuu...,” Whine of Lightning Leopards. He was lying on the ground with severe injuries on his body as he looked at Lu Ming with eyes full of despair.

Lu Ming's heart was pounding violently as he was reminded of the time when Lu Yao and Lu Yunxiong had stripped his blood meridians.

If this Lightning Leopard got into the hands of the Duanmu Family, it would not end well.

“What are you going to do with this Lightning Leopard boy, Lu Ming? I think you should do it because the Lightning Leopard Child is so valuable out there.” Feng Wu suggested.

Lu Ming asked with a laugh, “Did you bring an empty jade bottle and healing medicine, Senior Feng Wu?”

"Yes!" Feng Wu nodded while taking out two jade bottles from thin air. One of them is empty while the other contains a cure to help repair the muscles and stop the bleeding.

“Thank you, Senior Feng!” Lu Ming thanked Feng Wu as he approached the Lightning Leopard with the jade bottle in his hand.

Roars!

The Lightning Leopard growled and bared its fangs as Lu Ming approached it.

“Don't worry, little fella. I'm not gonna kill you. I'm not taking you away. I just need a little blood, then I'll help you heal him.” Lu Ming smiled as he immediately gripped the boy's neck.

Since the tiger cub was already injured and there was blood pouring out of its wound, Lu Ming filled an empty jade bottle with about half his blood bottle, storing it, and then filling it, and poured Muscle-Repairing Bleeding Stopping Drugs into the Lightning Leopard wound. .

Bleeding Stopping Drugs that Improve Muscles are the best medicine. Within seconds, the child's wounds stopped bleeding.

"Continue. Find a place to heal yourself, man. Don't get caught again now,” Lu Ming said as he patted the boy's head.

Beside him, Feng Wu was also surprised. “Did you really let go, Lu Ming? Lightning Leopard Children have a fairly expensive price out there, you know.”

“We will be taking more precious metal pieces from the Duanmu Family in a moment. I'm sure won't have time to babysit it.” Lu Ming laughed.

Huhu..

The Lightning Leopard Child ran towards Lu Ming and rubbed his head against his feet. Then, he ran to Feng Wu's feet and did the same.

“Smart little boy! That's so funny!" Feng Wu praised as his eyes twinkled.

Huhu...

The Lightning Leopard groaned as it looked at Lu Ming deeply, then turned around and dashed out of the canyon at lightning speed.

Lu Ming chuckled before searching for pieces of metal that were worth using on corpses, easily devouring their blood essence.

The blood essence of the five First Grade Realm Master martial artists was beneficial to Lu Ming.

“They are indeed Realm Master geniuses! They each got 30 points.”

The high-value piece of metal made Lu Ming and Feng Wu excited. In total there are 153 points from the combined five points.

Feng Wu only took 50 points and gave the rest to Lu Ming because if not for him, he would not have won against the other five First Grade Realm Masters.

Lu Ming's goal was to be first, so he shamelessly maintained his remaining 83 points. He now has 124 points.

“Please give me a minute, Senior Brother Feng.”

Lu Ming sat in the Lotus Position and began to cultivate the blood essence he consumed.

The blood essence of the five First Grade Realm Master martial artists was extremely condensed, and as it continued to be converted into Essential Qi, Lu Ming's cultivation increased at an alarming rate.

A moment later, Lu Ming shuddered.

“Nature Second Class Master!” His eyes sparkle.

Yuan Chong, the six First Grade Realm Master martial artists, and the essence of several Warrior Realm martial artists contributed to Lu Ming's breakthrough in cultivation.

However, his blood meridians were still at the Third Level.

“Let's go, Senior Brother Feng!” Lu Ming got up and said to Feng Wu.

He looked at Lu Ming with curiosity. His breakthrough was so subtle that he didn't even notice it. He was only interested in why Lu Ming sat down to cultivate, then woke up after a while.

Feng Wu did not interfere with the reason. Everyone has their secrets, right?

The two of them exited the canyon and continued their journey towards the inner part of Midnight Hills. Most of the Duanmu Family team were deep in the forest.

An hour later, Lu Ming and Feng Wu saw a pattern carved into the tree, so they stopped. It was a very lively Vermillion Bird carving on the bark of a tree.

"What does this mean?" Lu Ming asked.

This is the third time they have seen similar carvings in the trees in the past hour.

“This is a special sign for Vermillion Bird Hall. Someone called the apprentice Vermillion Bird Hall. The bird's head pointed in that direction. That's where the meeting is.”

"Oh so!"

Lu Ming was a new person in the Vermillion Bird Hall, so he knew nothing about it. He was unlike the other geniuses in the big cities who had done research on the Mystic Sword School before enrolling.

“They usually don't gather apprentices like this. What could possibly happen? Let's see, yeah?” Feng Wu suggested, a little confused.

"Sure!" Lu Ming nodded.

Then, she and Feng Wu walked towards the direction that Vermillion Bird had pointed at.
