At the moment Lin Feng released his Heavenly Sun martial soul, everything around him was crystal clear, as if he could control everything.
Moreover, when the martial soul was released, his brain's computational ability was incredibly powerful, precise to the millimeter. Everything that happened at this moment was exactly as he had rehearsed in his mind.
Using words to attract everyone's attention, he provoked Lin Bardao and Nalan Xiong, and boasted about killing Lin Qian. But just when everyone thought he was going to kill Lin Qian, he rushed straight to Nalan Feng, taking her as a hostage.
What was even more remarkable was that while his strength was enhanced and his computational ability was terrifying, his mind was clearer and calmer than ever before.
Lin Feng could only marvel that the Heavenly Sun martial soul was too abnormal. A single martial soul bestowed various abilities, and this was just the first level of the Heavenly Sun martial soul's release. The second level of the Heavenly Sun martial soul's release even included a Heavenly Book.
"Let her go," Nalan Xiong said coldly, his voice like ice.
"Is it possible to let her go?" Lin Feng sneered inwardly, his face still expressionless, his gaze as cold and merciless as ever.
"If anyone tries to approach me or attack me, I guarantee that the first one to die will not be me."
The cold words that came out of Lin Feng's mouth made Nalan Xiong's face stiffen, his expression extremely ugly.
"Go." The soft sword in Lin Feng's hand trembled slightly, instantly leaving a shallow blood mark on Nalan Feng's throat. The touch of the soft sword made Nalan Feng's whole body cold, especially when she met Lin Feng's eyes. She had no hope that Lin Feng would let her go; those eyes had no emotion at all.
Nalan Feng lifted her foot and obediently walked toward the city lord's mansion gate.
"Remember, anyone," Lin Feng glanced at Lin Bardao, who wanted to approach him, and tightened his grip on the sword, causing the blood to seep from the wound on Nalan Feng's neck.
"Get back," Nalan Xiong roared at Lin Bardao. With Nalan Feng in danger, he didn't care about Lin Bardao's face.
Feeling the coldness in Nalan Xiong's gaze, Lin Bardao stopped, inwardly hating that Lin Feng was so cunning, choosing Nalan Feng as a hostage. No one dared to move now.
"Lin Feng, if I let you go, what if you don't release my daughter?" Nalan Xiong looked at Lin Feng coldly and asked.
"Do you want her to die in front of you now?" His pitch-black, emotionless eyes swept over Nalan Xiong, who found that he felt powerless in the face of Lin Feng, not even daring to bargain because Lin Feng's eyes were too cold, and he feared Lin Feng would kill in anger.
Without saying another word, Lin Feng and Nalan Feng's figures gradually disappeared. Because of Nalan Xiong, no one dared to chase after them, not even Nalan Xiong himself. He could only pray that Nalan Feng would be safe.
Finally, the crowd watched as Lin Feng's figure disappeared outside the city lord's mansion, feeling a sense of unfinished business. Today was too exciting, and Lin Feng had brought them too many surprises.
"Lin Feng."
"Lin Feng."
"Lin Feng."
From the direction of the Gu family, the Nalan family, and the place where Qiuyuan Hao was, everyone was shouting the same name in their hearts, the name they hated to the core.
However, the Lin family's gazes were extremely complex. He was once their family's pride, but when he shone brightly in Yangzhou City, the glory did not belong to their Lin family. On the contrary, their Lin family would be ridiculed by everyone. A brilliant genius was actually expelled from the family. Was there anything more ridiculous in the world?
No matter what, after today's battle, Lin Feng had already made a name for himself in Yangzhou City.
Soon, everyone in Yangzhou City would know a name: Lin Feng, the former Lin family's waste, now the pride of the heavens, but not belonging to the Lin family.
Lin Feng naturally didn't think about what would happen next. In fact, when he arrived outside Yangzhou City, he just glanced at the city and rode away. He didn't know when he would return to this city, but he knew that when he did, he would rule the world, truly unmatched, washing away past humiliations, and no one would be able to stop him. He wouldn't need to rely on a hostage to leave.
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦
Ten days later, at the foot of the Yunhai Sect, Lin Feng rode on Qianli Xue, looking up at the towering peaks, feeling something deep within.
The path of martial arts is like climbing a mountain, one step at a time, constantly moving forward, and one day, looking down on the world.
Although Lin Feng had made a name for himself in Yangzhou City, he had no trace of pride or self-satisfaction. He knew that he was nothing at the moment.
He didn't even know how vast the Nine Heavens Continent was, let alone be proud and self-satisfied. The continent was boundless, and there were countless geniuses. Take the Great Peng Young Master, for example, who was not much older than him but already had the qualifications to speak with the sect elders and dared to directly ask the Yunhai Sect for someone, standing high above.
"This time, when I return to the sect, the first thing I need to do is choose a few powerful cultivation techniques and martial skills, participate in the inner sect examination, and advance to become an inner sect disciple. Only then can I be considered a truly qualified sect disciple. Right now, as an outer sect disciple, I am nothing."
Lin Feng thought to himself, clear about every step he needed to take.
"Rumble, rumble..."
At this moment, the sound of hooves shook the air, coming from the distance, making the earth tremble.
Lin Feng's gaze slightly focused, and he turned his eyes. Then he saw dust rising from the distant earth, a group of iron cavalry galloping at incredible speed.
"Red Blood!" A look of surprise flashed in Lin Feng's eyes. All the horses under the iron cavalry were red-blooded steeds, the best of horses, three times faster than Qianli Xue, and extremely precious.
It was said that a single Red Blood was worth a thousand taels of gold, and the entire group was Red Blood iron cavalry. These people were certainly not ordinary.
However, why would these people appear in the Yunhai Sect's territory?
The Red Blood iron cavalry gradually approached, the dust swirling. The people on the Red Blood steeds were all extraordinary, exuding a powerful and fierce aura.
"Any one of these people is not comparable to the experts of the city lord's mansion." Lin Feng's heart trembled as he compared these people to those who had tried to assassinate him at the city lord's mansion. The result was that every single one of these people was stronger than those experts, meaning that the weakest of the Red Blood iron cavalry was at the Ninth Level of the Qi Martial Realm, and the Spirit Martial Realm was nothing.
This was a true elite force, exuding a killing aura.
There were about thirty people in the group. As they approached Lin Feng, their speed gradually slowed, and they looked up at the mountains before them, their destination, the Yunhai Sect.
At this moment, Lin Feng felt something and turned his gaze to one person, his pupils involuntarily contracting.
"It's her!"
In the middle of the Red Blood iron cavalry, there was a person in red armor, exuding a heroic aura. This person was a very beautiful woman, and Lin Feng recognized her.
"Damn." Lin Feng cursed inwardly, feeling a sense of alert. He didn't expect to run into her here. These people were clearly with her. This heroic and beautiful woman was none other than the famous beauty of the Yunhai Sect, Liu Fei.
"It's you?" Liu Fei's face turned cold, looking at Lin Feng angrily. This guy had taken her cultivation place and dared to speak rudely to her, and this account had not been settled yet.
Lin Feng cursed his bad luck. This group was much stronger than those who had tried to assassinate him at the city lord's mansion. If they decided to move against him, he would be in grave danger even with his current strength.
"Feifei, do you have a grudge against him?" The young man beside Liu Fei looked at Lin Feng, sensing her cold demeanor, and his eyes also showed a hostile expression.
"No, we are fellow disciples, naturally, I recognize him." To Lin Feng's surprise, Liu Fei shook her head and said indifferently, not looking at him again.
"Let's go into the mountains." Liu Fei said again, and the Red Blood iron cavalry headed into the Yunhai Sect. The handsome young man glanced at Lin Feng, his eyes flashing with a cold light.
Lin Feng's brows furrowed, puzzled. In his memory, Liu Fei was a rude and impolite woman. Why would she let him go this time?
