Chapter 52 That Touch of Blood Red

"Leave this place immediately, as far as you can!"

The big boss with half a ghost mask said this without any emotion.

As a powerful master who has reached the great perfection, his perception range is much wider than Cao Feng's.

I know how terrifying the enemy is.

But what?

As long as it is the order of Governor Cao, they will rush forward without hesitation even if the enemy is an almost invincible grandmaster.

For people like them who are equivalent to dead soldiers, death is not scary at all.

Instead, the three of them felt deeply regretful that they were unable to safely send the person whom the governor was supposed to protect away.

But they are short of manpower now, and they have no way to spare anyone to escort Cao Feng.

We can only pray that he runs faster and doesn't get stopped by anyone, thus wasting the Governor's kindness.

……

Cao Feng did not respond to the boss, nor did he show any intention of escaping.

He never does anything meaningless.

I want to leave now, but how can I possibly leave?
The person who is suspected to be a grandmaster would be able to catch up with him in an instant if there were no people of the same level blocking him.

The reason why he didn't show up at this time was definitely not because he was not fast enough.

Rather... an unparalleled confidence in oneself, a certainty that everything is under control.

Otherwise, that person would have arrived long ago.

"Please, three of you, buy me some time!"

Cao Feng said this solemnly.

Then, hold your breath, concentrate, and adjust your state.

The three guards were not enough to stop the enemy, not to mention the existence of the suspected grandmaster. Among the remaining five people, three of them could match him.

If Cao Feng wants to survive this disaster, he has to improve his realm and further improve his lightness skills.

Only in this way can there be a 30% chance of escaping pursuit.

"pity……"

Cao Feng sighed secretly, feeling somewhat unwilling.

Originally in Cao Feng's plan, every step on the road of martial arts had to be down-to-earth.

Take one step at a time, polish each realm to the limit, and then break through.

Many people say that the polishing before the Grandmaster level is not very meaningful.

Just be brave for a moment.

Once you reach the Grandmaster level, you will understand how ridiculous your past efforts were.

Instead of spending that time and resources on improving your realm and breaking through to the Grandmaster level as soon as possible.

However, Cao Feng didn't think so.

He always adheres to the concept of 'existence is reasonable'.

The acquired realm is divided into 'refining the body', 'refining the internal organs' and 'refining the marrow', while the innate realm is divided into 'melting the blood' and 'gathering the energy', so it's time to polish them well.

The cultivation methods used by the ancients may not all be correct.

But some of them are the crystallization of wisdom summed up by countless predecessors.

Since it has not been eliminated by the waves of history, there must be a reason for its survival.

Just because it doesn’t work out at first doesn’t mean it won’t work out in the future.

Cao Feng, who possessed a system, had never considered Grandmaster as his fixed goal in martial arts since the day he traveled through time.

He wants to achieve perfection in everything in the martial arts.

Then, try to reach the peak and take a look at the different scenery!
Unfortunately, an unexpected epiphany pushed him to the forefront.

He was forced to abandon his original plan.

In this regard, Cao Feng couldn't help but ask himself: Do you regret it?

the answer is negative.

At most it's just a little regretful.

A real man knows what he does and what he doesn't do. If he had to do it all over again, he would still make the same choice.

"An imperfect foundation is not impossible to make up for. As long as you obtain a peerless martial art like the 'Wedding Dress Magical Skill', you can start over."

Cao Feng murmured something as if to comfort himself.

Then, he put aside all distracting thoughts and prepared to use all his reserve power. But at this moment, a pleasant voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

"Hey, are you planning to do something dangerous?"

Cao Feng suddenly opened his eyes. Out of trust in the three supervisors, he restrained his perception and did not notice anyone coming.

When he heard this and opened his eyes, a strong sense of confusion suddenly emerged in his heart.

What I saw was a blood-red robe.

The long sleeves fluttered in the wind, covering half of that peerless beauty.

The strands of hair danced up and down, almost reaching Cao Feng's face.

The moment their eyes met, they seemed to sense that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and there was a hint of strangeness in each other's eyes.

"Since you left, why come back?"

Cao Feng lowered his eyelids slightly and spoke softly.

"Ha!~"

Dongfang Bubai covered his mouth and chuckled, then said faintly: "Have you not heard that when the country is in crisis, every citizen has a responsibility?"

Cao Feng shook his head.

It’s not that I haven’t heard it, I just don’t believe what Dongfang Bubai said.

It's not that he has any prejudice against Dongfang Bubai.

It's simply because I know this woman's personality too well.

Whether it is the memories of the previous life or the files read in this life.

Dongfang Bubai is not someone who would work hard for the imperial court.

Quite the opposite.

Compared with serving the court, she wanted to kill the emperor and be the master of her own house!

Cao Feng’s reaction made Dongfang Bubai somewhat unhappy.

However, sensing that the enemy was getting closer, she didn't continue to talk nonsense and said bluntly: "With your status, I believe you have a lot of say in the court, right?"

Cao Feng nodded slightly and said truthfully: "I don't have much say... My uncle's situation is not very good."

He is just Cao Zhengchun's nephew, not the governor.

Now even his cheap uncle is in a very bad situation, let alone him?

Cao Feng dared to assert that as long as he did something through Cao Zhengchun, countless people would stand up to refute it.

This would be the case even if this matter was beneficial to the Ming Dynasty.

"But if we want to improve the situation of the Miao people, there is no problem."

Before Dongfang Bubai could speak, Cao Feng said another sentence.

When Dongfang Bubai heard this, his pupils shrank slightly and his eyes instantly became extremely dangerous.

Cao Feng did not react at all. With a deadpan expression on his face, he said calmly, "Don't be surprised. The Jinyiwei already knows exactly what you are thinking and what you are going to do."

He is cold on the outside but warm on the inside, loyal and righteous, and quite responsible.

This is the evaluation of Dongfang Bubai in the files of Jinyiwei.

Dongfang Bubai seems to be indifferent to worldly affairs and only wants to enjoy himself.

But in fact, she has always been concerned about the people around her.

That's why he is bound, like a bird in a cage.

Even if you have a heart that wants to soar into the sky, you have to be willing to break your wings for the people you care about.

Dongfang Bubai pursed his lips and fell into a long silence, making the atmosphere a little subtle.

As a woman, being seen through by a man at a glance.

This... is somewhat embarrassing.

Fortunately, they are not the only ones here.

As the three bosses knelt silently in unison, the delicate atmosphere was instantly broken.

The three supervisors were not fools. They had already guessed Cao Feng's identity from the conversation between the two.

In particular, the three of them had close contact with Cao Feng and were already quite familiar with him.

Plus Cao Zhengchun's order.

With so many clues in front of them, how could they not guess who 'Cao Ye' is?
