Chapter 405: Chapter 405 We Know What to Do Now
Seeing Uncle Li standing there, Lin Feng didn’t bother with pleasantries. With a flash of his body, he disappeared from the spot.
Only the whistling of the wind could be heard in the air, but no one or nothing else could be seen anymore, save for Uncle Li who stood there, foolishly, unable to believe what had just happened before his eyes.
rely a second later, Lin Feng reappeared, standing with his sword, without giving Uncle Li another glance.
"Dying under the Windbreaker Sword, you should consider yourself lucky," Lin Feng said indifferently, then walked over to a nearby hillside.
"Your master..." Uncle Li looked at Lin Feng, wanting to ask who his master was, but before the third word could escape his lips, he suddenly fell down...
Afterward, Uncle Li’s head rolled off his shoulders and hit the ground. His eyes still didn’t close because until his death, he didn’t know who Lin Feng’s master was—who could have taught Lin Feng to be so formidable. He died with his eyes still open!
Lin Feng paid no attention to Uncle Li, who was already dead. Carrying the Windbreaker Sword in one hand, he arrived at a small mound, sat down quietly, and began to ponder all the events that had occurred that day. He felt more and more that he was completely different from other cultivators. In fact, Lin Feng himself didn’t know what level he was at because he had never felt the sensation of breaking through as other cultivators did—it had always been as natural as water flowing into a channel.
He had experienced understanding the Spiritual Energy between heaven and earth that was on the verge of exhaustion today, which healed all his wounds. This miraculous effect was so astonishing that it was beyond belief. Could this be the different path his master had ntioned?
Without realizing it, Lin Feng closed his eyes and began to contemplate a question—if by chance, he had co into contact with the Spiritual Energy amongst the plants and trees, then from the perspective of Yin and Yang and the Five Elents, shouldn’t there exist other forms of Spiritual Energy elsewhere in the world? Although Earth’s Spiritual Energy had already experienced a great catastrophe, it must still exist in other places...
Now, Lin Feng finally understood what his master ant by sending him out into the world; his master wanted him to seek these opportunities. If he had remained on the island, he would never have experienced such a variety of life events that subtly influenced his state of mind and his heart.
Looking at the green world before him, Lin Feng knew he had entered a new realm. Starting today, he had begun to walk a path of cultivation unlike any other cultivator. Was this the unique path his master had spoken of?
He let go of all his thoughts and fully rged with the green world before him. Gradually, Lin Feng’s body beca ethereal, as if he had beco one with the entire world.
At this mont, Lin Feng began to understand things he never had clarity on before—like the aning of life. All these insights ca to him as he contemplated the scenery before him, and he unknowally entered another state...
In that mont, Lin Feng, sitting on that small mound, began emitting a dazzling green light. Then it slowly dissipated until he lted into the colors of the trees and grass, as if he had beco one with the entire valley...
...
After Ding Wan’er and Lin Feng left, Ding Yi looked at Ding Bo and Zhou Ping in front of him, and he really felt at a loss for words. He simply couldn’t understand what they were thinking—how could they pick soone like Li Zerui as a fiancé for Wan’er? His behavior at dinner was observed in plain sight, and compared to Lin Feng, the difference was stark.
"You two," Ding Yi finally said exasperatedly, shaking his head as he spoke to his son and daughter-in-law, "I don’t know what you were thinking tonight." If he hadn’t known they weren’t such rcenary people, he might have chased them away a long ti ago. Arranging such an important engagent for Wan’er without even informing him—it was decided just like that, as if Wan’er didn’t matter!
"Dad, we really didn’t expect things to turn out this way," Ding Bo said, conflicted. He had intended to find the best partner for Wan’er, but he did not expect events to unfold as they had that day. He never dread that Wan’er would have a betrothal agreent, let alone that the evening would turn into such a ss.
However, both he and his father were responsible for today’s events. If they had asked his father about Wan’er’s situation beforehand, the verbal agreent with the Li Family would not have been made. Now everything was a ss, and as a result of this incident, they would definitely offend the Li Family. He wondered how Li Zerui would explain things when he returned, and how the Li Family would handle the situation.
"Dad, we truly didn’t know that Wan’er had a pre-arranged marriage, otherwise we wouldn’t have verbally agreed to a marriage with the Li Family. We were just looking out for the best interests of Wan’er and wanted to find her the best husband. You know, after Wan’er ca back, she rejected countless boys. Ding Bo and I were extrely anxious, so we kept observing, until not long ago, when we t with the Li Family’s head, we arranged this marriage agreent for Wan’er. We believe that if Wan’er could marry into the Li Family, it would certainly be a stroke of luck for her, and all matters would be assured."
Zhou Ping now had no other thoughts, hearing Ding Yi’s voice sounding sowhat angry, she hurriedly explained on the side. She and Ding Bo were not vain people, they just happened to et Li Zerui’s parents during their search, and after weighing their options, they finally settled on this verbal marriage agreent.
But she really had no other intentions, only wishing to find a good ho for Wan’er, nothing more. After returning to the country, Wan’er had refused countless male suitors, Zhou Ping had been worried for a long ti, but never expected Wan’er to already have a marriage arrangent.
So what should we do about the Li Family’s situation? With sothing like this happening, the Li Family couldn’t possibly pretend as if nothing had happened, what exactly should we do?
"I certainly know that you are not those kind of people, otherwise, I would have kicked you out a long ti ago, rather than let you sit here. Let
put it this way, the issue between Wan’er and Lin Feng is settled, and it’s not possible to change it. Moreover, you also see that Wan’er and Lin Feng like each other. So, there’s no chance of their matter changing in any way."
Ding Yi looked at his son and daughter-in-law and finally decided to settle the matter between Lin Feng and Ding Wan’er. Only by setting this direction could other matters be discussed. Under this major premise, the rest of the issues could be slowly addressed.
"Dad, how should we resolve the matter with the Li Family? They definitely won’t let this incident go easily." Ding Bo didn’t challenge Ding Yi’s words, seeing Lin Feng and Wan’er together, he also felt they were quite compatible. But now they had to resolve the issue with the Li Family; otherwise, there would definitely be trouble. The Li Family was one of the four Prominent Families, and having their face so publicly slighted was certainly unacceptable.
Although Ding Bo wanted to smooth things over, he truly didn’t know how to proceed. He was just a businessman and had no standing to discuss such matters with the Li Family.
"Dad, the Li Family is one of the four Prominent Families, Ding Bo and I really can’t do anything..." Zhou Ping also felt completely out of her depth, she and Ding Bo really didn’t have the ability to negotiate with the Li Family, one of the four Prominent Families. Had today’s incident not occurred, their interactions would surely have been pleasant, but today they had slighted the Li Family so severely, she truly didn’t know what to say to them...
"This is your responsibility. I suggest you go directly to their door, explain the whole thing truthfully, and then apologize to them. There shouldn’t be any serious issues." Ding Yi had never dealt with the so-called Li Family, but he knew that breaking a marriage agreent was certainly wrong, so his son and daughter-in-law should formally apologize and try to garner forgiveness by being completely honest.
"If they aren’t willing to let it go, tell them that Qian Rong of the Great South Gang said, don’t make everyone unhappy, it’s not good for anyone. If there’s one thing the Great South Gang has, it’s plenty of people." Qian Rong listened on the side, fiddling with a stone ball in his hand, not saying a word until the end when he expressed his stance.
Qian Rong believed that if Ding Wan’er could beco Lin Feng’s official wife, then his Duoduo wouldn’t have any difficult issues in the future. This was clear and obvious. For his own Duoduo’s sake, he had to intervene, hoping not to use these words, but if the Li Family didn’t give face, then there’s nothing to worry about.
"Okay, Dad, Uncle Qian, we know what to do."
"Dad, Uncle Qian, we take our leave."
Having clarified today’s situation, Ding Bo and his wife expressed their farewells to the two elders, prepared to leave. Given the day’s events, they needed to think carefully about how to approach the Li Family, and both felt that the matter should be dealt with as soon as possible.
Since there was no longer anything to do here, they should leave and discuss how to handle the upcoming visit to the Li Family. This matter required careful handling.
"Let’s go." Ding Yi was aware that the couple was eager to leave and discuss the issues, so he waved his hand to indicate that they could depart.
After Ding Bo and his wife left, Ding Yi turned his attention to Qian Rong.
"It seems you truly want Duoduo to beco Lin Feng’s woman too? Otherwise, you wouldn’t have made such a statent. Have you really thought it through?" Ding Yi’s expression was stern. Qian Rong’s attitude tonight had been very clear; he truly wanted Duoduo to beco one of Lin Feng’s won. Ding Yi had always thought that he was joking, but now he needed to confirm whether it was a genuine intention or not.
