I, the Invincible Genius, Only Want to Live a Low-Key Life - Chapter 11

The Nine Nether Secret Realm was vast.

Tens of thousands of people entered, but it was like tossing a stone into a pond-the ripples quickly faded into calm.

Lin Feng spent an entire day weaving through the dense forest, encountering only a handful of people, all of whom he managed to avoid.

He did, however, come across quite a few medium and large wild beasts.

After searching for a long time, he finally spotted a small stream.

Where there is a stream, there will naturally be a lake.

Lin Feng followed the stream downstream.

It wasn’t long before he found a pool of accumulated water.

Yet the result was deeply disappointing.

The banks of the pool were covered in tracks of various birds and beasts.

Clearly, this was their watering spot.

The Bianhua Flower was a precious heavenly treasure. Wherever it grew, there would surely be a guardian exotic beast, and with such a beast present, no ordinary animal would dare come to drink.

This was something Lin Feng had learned from ancient texts before entering the Nine Nether Secret Realm.

Reasoning it out, he was certain that the pool before him did not contain the Bianhua Flower he sought.

So he continued on his journey.

He hadn’t expected to find the Bianhua Flower right after entering anyway.

Each time the Nine Nether Secret Realm opened, one had to stay inside for a full three months before leaving-there was plenty of time.

Of course, having ample time didn’t mean he could slack off.

The sooner he found what he needed, the sooner he could be at ease.

Three days passed in a flash.

Lin Feng kept following the stream, discovering several more pools along the way, but none showed any sign of the Bianhua Flower.

After merging with more than a dozen tributaries, the original stream had become a river.

The water volume had greatly increased.

This meant that downstream, there must be a huge lake-otherwise, it couldn’t possibly hold so much water.

He simply needed to keep following it; sooner or later, he would arrive.

After traveling dozens of kilometers along the river, the sounds of battle reached Lin Feng’s ears.

He hadn’t intended to get involved.

But then he thought: what if there were people from the Divine Sky Sword Sect?

He was, after all, a member of the Divine Sky Sword Sect; he couldn’t just ignore the life and death of his fellow disciples.

So he quietly approached.

When he saw the two sides fighting, he confirmed there were no Divine Sky Sword Sect disciples present.

On one side were the black-robed figures he had seen before; on the other, the Qingyun Sect.

Lin Feng was puzzled.

Weren’t the people from the Infinite Demon Sect and Seven Kill Sect not wearing black robes?

These black-robed individuals were all strong, ruthless, and clearly intent on killing-just which force had sent them in?

As Lin Feng pondered this,

the battle was already nearing its end.

Though Qingyun Sect had the numbers, they were no match for the black-robed figures in terms of strength.

Just five black-robed men had forced nearly twenty Qingyun Sect disciples to the brink; only six or seven remained, the rest lying dead.

“Who are you? Why do you seek to kill my Qingyun Sect? Are you not afraid of our revenge?” Li Luoyi demanded angrily.

Her talent and strength were considerable, but faced with the more experienced and merciless black-robed men, she was unable to withstand them.

In truth, if Li Luoyi had focused solely on escape, she might have had a chance.

But as a true disciple of Qingyun Sect, she could not abandon her fellow sect members to save herself.

“Qingyun Sect and Divine Sky Sword Sect are both on our hunting list. If you want to blame someone, blame yourselves for joining the wrong sect,” one of the black-robed men replied.

“You’re from the Infinite Demon Sect?”

“No need to ask! I won’t tell you, unless…”

“Unless what?”

“Unless you all die!”

With that, the black-robed man charged at the surviving Qingyun Sect members, intent on finishing the fight and preventing any unexpected developments.

To hunt down a true disciple of Qingyun Sect was no small achievement.

“Fight!” Li Luoyi shouted.

She had hoped to buy some time, but since the enemy gave no chance, they could only fight to the death.

Even knowing she was doomed today, she showed no sign of retreat, nor would she beg for mercy.

As a true disciple of Qingyun Sect, even in death, she would not disgrace her sect.

Seeing the two sides about to clash again, with Qingyun Sect’s remaining strength, a direct confrontation would likely end in their annihilation by the black-robed men in an instant.
At that very moment-

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

The sound of four piercing winds entered everyone’s ears.

Immediately after, four miserable screams followed.

“Ahhh! Ahhh! Ahhh! Ahhh!”

When Li Luoyi and the other disciples of Qingyun Sect stopped and looked over, the scene before their eyes struck directly at their souls, leaving their hearts utterly shaken.

They saw that, among the five black-robed men, four had been impaled through the chest by tree branches and nailed to the large trees, barely clinging to life.

The remaining one was held by the throat by a man who had appeared out of nowhere, completely powerless to resist.

“Who sent you? What is your purpose in coming to the Nine Nether Secret Realm? Tell me and I’ll spare your life,” Lin Feng looked at the black-robed man he had subdued and asked in a hoarse voice.

Though he had not wanted to meddle, in the end he still couldn’t hold back and made his move.

Lin Feng didn’t care about the lives of Qingyun Sect’s disciples, but since the black-robed men had said that the Divine Sky Sword Sect was also on their must-kill list, he could not ignore this.

If he didn’t act, more disciples of the Divine Sky Sword Sect might die at the hands of these five black-robed men in the future.

Since that was the case-

He might as well kill them all and nip the threat in the bud.

All five of the black-robed men were not dead yet, but they looked at the masked figure before them in terror and disbelief. No matter how hard they tried, they could not accept it.

The five of them had actually been instantly defeated at the same time?

And without even a chance to fight back.

If this were in the outside world, it might make sense-there are plenty of strong experts out there. But this was the Nine Nether Secret Realm!

Everyone who entered could not be more than a hundred years old in bone age; otherwise, the power of heaven and earth would destroy them.

That meant this person’s bone age was under a hundred.

It was simply insane.

“You… who… are… you?”

The black-robed man gripped by Lin Feng’s throat managed to choke out a sentence after a long struggle.

“You’re not qualified to ask! Speak your purpose and the mastermind behind you, or… die!”

“Dream on!”

Lin Feng instantly knew what the answer would be.

He had long noticed these black-robed men were professionally trained-there was no way they would answer his questions.

“Since you refuse to talk, then end your evil life and go join those you murdered!”

With that, he tightened his grip and directly snapped the man’s neck.

The remaining four, seeing this, opened their mouths and blood gushed forth.

The tree branches had not only pierced through their hearts, but the powerful impact had shattered all their internal organs, and they too soon perished.

This scene left the members of Qingyun Sect completely stunned.

Even Li Luoyi, the Qingyun Sect prodigy, was no exception.

No one knew better than her how strong those five black-robed men were.

And yet they had been wiped out in an instant?

And by someone whose bone age did not exceed a hundred years?

Li Luoyi, who prided herself on being second to none in talent, suffered a huge blow at this moment.

The person before her could no longer be described as merely a genius.

Lin Feng tossed aside the corpse of the black-robed man and was about to leave when Li Luoyi’s voice rang out from behind.

“Thank you, benefactor, for saving us!”

He slowly turned, revealing the mask on his face, and looked at the members of Qingyun Sect.

“No need to thank me! Even if you weren’t here, I wouldn’t have let these black-robed men go.”

“Regardless! The fact remains that you saved us! Please, benefactor, leave your name. When we leave, Qingyun Sect will be sure to pay you a visit in thanks,” Li Luoyi said with a cupped fist.

“No need! It was a trivial matter! You needn’t think too much of it. Farewell!”

“It may be a small matter to you, but to us it was life-saving…” Li Luoyi hadn’t finished her words before the other party had already vanished.

Lin Feng had no desire to waste words with the people of Qingyun Sect. As soon as he finished speaking, he turned and left.

Staring at the place where Lin Feng had disappeared, Li Luoyi remained in a daze for a long time.

Which power could nurture such a disciple?

He didn’t carry a sword, so he couldn’t be a sword cultivator of the Divine Sky Sword Sect.

People from the Infinite Demon Sect and Seven Kill Sect wouldn’t save her.

Could there be another force in Li Province capable of producing such a monstrous talent?
