Chapter 1628: Fire Spirit Physique
"However, this young girl looks only sixteen or seventeen, yet she's already reached the Third Layer of the Hollow Void Realm. Her talent is truly remarkable!"
Xiao Yifeng looked at the girl and couldn't help but exclaim. This young girl was definitely the youngest and strongest person he'd ever seen, even surpassing Lan Linger.
But Lan Linger had only been cultivating for a short time. Give her a few years, and she might surpass the Hollow Void Realm. Regardless, this young girl's talent is indeed terrifying.
"Kid, this young girl is no ordinary person; she's got the Fire Spirit Physique!"
Long Qian said.
"Fire Spirit Physique!"
A gleam flashed in Xiao Yifeng's eyes.
"The Fire Spirit Physique is a special constitution among Martial Artists. People with this constitution have a natural affinity for flames, allowing them to control fire better than others. When they cultivate certain fire-attribute techniques, they can generate powerful Fire Spirit Power, which is far stronger than regular Spiritual Power to attack."
"That's also why she can reach the Hollow Void Realm at such a young age and withstand attacks from so many Hollow Void Realm experts. Her Fire Spirit Physique isn't fully awakened yet, or she'd be even stronger."
Long Qian explained.
"No wonder she's so powerful at such a young age!"
Xiao Yifeng chuckled lightly.
Bang!
At this moment, a muffled sound rang out. The bald man took advantage while the girl was busy defending against other attackers, sneaking in and striking her, sending her flying, her face pale.
However, the leather armor she's wearing seems unusual; it's a piece of Inferior Grade Defense King Weapon. Otherwise, the bald man's strike would have more than just made her pale; she'd likely be severely injured.
"This girl is wearing a defensive King's Weapon; her identity must be extraordinary!"
The bald man looked at the girl, his eyes flickering with a strange glow.
"You bald-headed guy, how dare you injure me! I won't let you off!"
The girl snorted stubbornly and resentfully, ready to fight back.
"Little girl, no matter who you are, I've set my eyes on you today!"
The bald man spat harshly.
"A bunch of big men ganging up on a little girl; isn't that embarrassing?"
A voice full of disdain suddenly rang out, followed by the sound of a bird's cry. The massive figure of Feng Que appeared before everyone, with Xiao Yifeng standing atop it, looking at the group with disdain.
For a moment, the horse bandits and the girl all turned their gaze to Xiao Yifeng.
"Kid, are you looking to meddle in others' affairs?"
The bald man looked at Xiao Yifeng and snorted coldly, his eyes filled with a chill.
"I simply don't turn a blind eye to injustice!"
Xiao Yifeng said indifferently.
"A kid who hasn't even reached the Hollow Void Realm dares to spout nonsense!"
The bald man snorted coldly, his eyes filled with disdain. In the Ancient Realm, riding a flying spirit beast generally indicates a lack of Hollow Void Realm strength or being unable to fly.
Alternatively, it signifies belonging to top Sect Families as a disciple or young master, but Xiao Yifeng didn't seem to be from any prestigious Sect. He appeared to be just an ordinary Sect member wandering outside, so the bald man didn't care at all.
"Even without reaching the Hollow Void Realm, killing you is as easy as slaughtering a dog!"
Xiao Yifeng's mouth curled into a disdainful smile, his eyes sharpening as he immediately unleashed the Soul Extinguishing Three Styles. Powerful soul power erupted, instantly rushing into the bald man's brain, who was at the Fourth Level of the Hollow Void Realm.
The mighty soul power executed the soul technique, with terrifying attack power that instantly extinguished the bald man's soul.
The man didn't even have time to utter his last sound before falling to the ground, his eyes wide open, dying with regret.
This scene happened too quickly for anyone present to react. The result was the bald man being annihilated unexpectedly; none imagined such a turn of events.
"Hmph, it turned out killing you is as easy as slaughtering a dog, wasn't it?"
Xiao Yifeng snorted coldly. However, after this show of bravado, his face was pale, having exhausted all his soul power. He promptly took out a Soul Stone, quickly absorbing it to replenish the soul power for his five Star Souls.
After the brief shock, the remaining horse bandits were overcome with fear, their faces grim as they looked at Xiao Yifeng, and without a word, all fled in panic.
Even their boss had been seconds away from annihilation without any martial path power used. Such a terrifying presence meant staying would be akin to signing their own death sentence. Naturally, they ran as far as possible.
Afterwards, Feng Que landed, and Xiao Yifeng along with Yun Tianxiao stepped down to approach the girl.
"Big brother, you are incredible; your spiritual sensing power is so strong!"
The girl looked at Xiao Yifeng without any fear, instead with an excited smile, looking at him cheerfully.
"Little girl, what's your name? Why are you here alone?"
Xiao Yifeng asked, looking at the girl.
"My name is Li Zitong. Big brother, you can call me Tongtong. I'm here alone because I ran away from home and bumped into these awful people!"
Li Zitong spoke with a face full of helplessness and grievance, her little eyes invoking a sense of tenderness and pity, embodying a look as pitifully aggrieved.
"How old are you that you ran away from home!"
Xiao Yifeng said somewhat speechlessly, looking at the girl, who indeed carried an aura of rebellion.
"I'm sixteen, not that young. My parents were forcing me to marry, which is why I ran away from home!"
Li Zitong pouted as she said.
"Married at sixteen? People get married early in the Ancient Realm!"
Xiao Yifeng said in surprise.
"Big brother, aren't you from the Ancient Realm?"
Li Zitong listened to Xiao Yifeng's words and quickly asked.
"Oh, I come from a small place in the Ancient Realm, and I'm not very familiar with the customs here!"
Xiao Yifeng said casually, then added, "But you're still so young; you'd better hurry back home to avoid trouble. Next time you may not run into someone as kind-hearted as me."
"I won't go back! Going back means getting married to someone I don't like. I won't go back now. It's much more fun outside."
Li Zitong immediately shook her head, pursing her lips, and looked at Xiao Yifeng, "Big brother, where are you going?"
"I'm headed to Maple City. Why do you ask?"
Xiao Yifeng said.
"Maple City? I haven't been there before. Big brother, why don't you take me with you? If I'm with you, I'll be safe with your protection!"
Li Zitong said with a smile.
"Hmm, that does sound like a good idea!"
Before Xiao Yifeng could say anything, Yun Tianxiao spoke first.
