Stellar Martial Arts

10. Bandits

''It seems this cultivation technique is quite miraculous, it allowed me to cultivate with the speed on par with the yuan cultivation. If this is the case I won't have to worry that my cultivation speed will be slow and most importantly my cultivation speed will be almost double of other steller cultivators who has the same grade of unique Qi."

Ling chen could now fight with most of the mid-grade wild beasts with ease. Most importantly after eating wild beast's meat for a month his body was no longer weak looking, although he didn't gain any muscles but now he looked like a healthy young man. His complexion got even more bright.

''This month of training was quite fruitful. Not only did my physic improve but also my cultivation fully stablised at 5th layer body tempering and I feel like I can easily deal with any 6th layer body tempering realm martial artist."

"Inhale"

He took a deep breath to calm his growing excitement.

" It is time to go back home now, Jiayi must be missing me and she'll be surprised to see my cultivation improved."  Ling Chen smiled when he remembered that adorable young girl. He cared no one but her.

Ling Chen hurriedly made his way out of the mountain but just when he went close to the outer area perimeter, he saw a group of 10 people dressed in black clothes, surrounding an old man and a young lady in luxurious clothing.

He was curious as to what these people wanted to do. He carefully got closer to listen to their chat and hid behind a tree.

" You guys seem to be quite rich huh! Given that you are wearing such robes and jewellery which normal people can't afford. You aren't from cloud view town, are you? " the man who seemed to be the leader of the group spoke.

The old man and girl didn't answer. The old man eyed the group leisurely and the young lady who had her face covered with a veil, seemed indifferent like it had nothing to do with her. 

"Are you guys mute or something? Didn't you hear boss asking you something." another man snapped.

"Boss why are we wasting our time asking them anything, let's just kill them and everything they have will be ours. then it won't matter even if they are from some big clan or sect. No will we were the ones who did the deed. hehe " a short man with a beard spoke in an impatient tone.

"Kill them? hmm? it seems you are blind. " another man spoke.

"What? you bastard, you dare call me blind. Do you think I won't kill you before killing them." the short man shouted angrily.

"Hehe, shorty cool your head and look at the young lady here. Have seen anyone more beautiful than her in your life?." the man asked coolly.

Hmm? everyone looked at the girl. Although she wore a veil one could imagine her beauty after seeing her curvaceous figure, smooth and fair skin. Anyone would be attracted to her with just a glance.

" Damn! What a beauty! If I could just taste her even once, I can die without any regrets." someone exclaimed.

"What a nice dream.  But our boss should have priority and use her as his pleasure toy. maybe after boss gets his fill of her, he would give her to us to enjoy. ". someone immediately sucked up to the leading man.

Hearing this,  The Boss leered at her body lustfully. " You are right after I play with her for a few days, you'll also get your chance. Now go and kill that old man and bring that girl to me. " The boss commanded.

But before anyone could react the old man who was standing behind the young lady, was now holding boss by the neck a left hand and lifted him from the ground. He then spoke in a chilly tone.

" Do you trash think you can speak however you want about a princess." done saying that, the old man directly snapped his neck and threw him aside. 

Everyone was stunned. Did he just kill their boss just like that?

" How is this possible. Boss has the 6th layer houtian realm cultivation base. Not many in cloud view town can even touch him, much less kill him in such a way without breaking a sweat."

" Is he a Xiantian realm martial artist? " some blurted out in astonishment.

Ling Chen was astonished too. He didn't think he would see someone this powerful in cloud view mountain.

.....

After a moment of astonishment. Everyone shouted simultaneously " Run!"

" Ohh! you think you can ?" the old man grinned. Then he moved so fast that his figure became blurry.

He quickly caught up to them and hit every one of them once. Their body stiffened and they lay there dead. 

Then old man respectfully went to the young lady and spoke " Princess, Should we go to the inner area now?. "

The Young lady nodded without saying anything.

The old man then glanced at the tree where Ling Chen was hiding and spoke  in a chilly voice " How much longer do you plan to hide?" 

" Ohh " Young lady also looked toward the tree.

Ling Chen shook his head and smiled bitterly ' as expected of a powerful expert. He found me even when I didn't make any sound.' He then slowly came out.
