"Lin Yanfeng! You've killed the innocent again!"
Inside the inn, Bai Zhantang glared angrily at Lin Feng, who had just returned triumphantly.
Lin Feng waved his hand dismissively and said, "How have I killed the innocent? Those people I killed, which one of them didn't deserve it?"
"You! So you tricked them into going out just to kill them and then claim a reward from the yan. That's so deceitful!"
Lin Feng leisurely sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and took a sip.
"If I hadn't tricked them, do you think they would have let us leave safely? If they had called the officers, none of us would have gotten away."
"Besides, those four were death row prisoners. If they escaped and committed murder or arson, you, Bai Zhantang, wouldn't be able to escape responsibility. I killed them, and you should be thanking ."
Lin Feng's words left Bai Zhantang unable to argue.
"Young Hero Lin is right! Zhantang, he did nothing wrong in this matter. Instead, you should be grateful to him," Tong Xiangyu sided with Lin Feng this ti.
"Exactly, Old Bai. They were death row prisoners. If they escaped and caused harm to the people, how could that be allowed? They were destined to die, and Lin Feng killed them to rid the people of a nace."
"That's right, they deserved it. They forced you to rescue them, and they got what was coming to them."
"I also think Young Hero Lin did nothing wrong!"
Seeing everyone support Lin Feng, Bai Zhantang didn't relent but instead questioned Lin Feng.
"What about Zhou Li? Why did you have to kill him too? He's Ji Wuming's disciple and a mber of the Sunflower Sect, which makes him my fellow disciple. Killing him, wasn't that going too far?"
Lin Feng remained calm and said, "Firstly, he was a ticking ti bomb, ready to expose you at any mont. I was just eliminating the root to prevent future troubles."
"Secondly, although he was a disciple of the Sunflower Sect, he committed nurous cris and beca an infamous bandit, deserving death for his sins."
"Furthermore, with his nature, if he were caught again, he would likely betray you to gain credit and reduce his sentence."
"At that ti, it wouldn't just be you who'd be implicated, but everyone around you. They'd all be charged with 'knowing and not reporting, harboring a criminal.' Do you understand?"
"Was there a problem with killing him?"
His words left Bai Zhantang speechless.
Everyone else also found Lin Feng's reasoning sound.
Although they knew Zhou Li deserved to die, none of them dared to act. They were still very averse to killing.
Bai Zhantang, even more so, couldn't bring himself to kill Zhou Li due to their shared past as fellow disciples.
But Lin Feng was different. He was decisive and ruthless, precisely what this group lacked.
Thinking this way, Lin Feng seed like a blessing to them, removing hidden dangers on their behalf.
"Alright, the matter is settled. Everyone can have a good night's sleep. If you still resent , it's fine. After all, you won't have to see after tomorrow," Lin Feng said, then went upstairs to rest.
The others were left with mixed feelings, especially Bai Zhantang.
...
In a small villa on the outskirts.
Yu ixiang, still in her dreams, was drawn by the enticing aroma wafting through the air. Hearing noises from the kitchen, she curiously stepped out of her room and saw Lin Feng busy cooking.
His knife skills were exquisite, his pan-flipping deft, and he even managed two stoves simultaneously with ease.
Seeing such a focused and culinary-skilled Lin Feng left Yu ixiang a bit dazed.
"Auntie, you're awake. It'll be ready soon. Just wait a bit, and you can eat."
"Little Feng, when did you learn to cook?"
"Oh, in the ga. I picked up a life skill," Lin Feng casually fibbed.
Thankfully, with "The Grand Martial World," all differences and changes between him and the original could be explained through the ga.
In truth, cooking was his forte in his past life, and many foreign girls had fallen for him because of it.
Yu ixiang, without any suspicion, gently chided, "Little Feng, you're still young. Cooking is sothing Auntie should do."
"It's no problem, Auntie. It's just cooking. You cook for every day, so what's the harm in cooking for you once in a while? You need to be taken care of too."
Lin Feng's casual words filled Yu ixiang with warmth and happiness, her eyes even reddening a bit.
Afraid she might cry, Yu ixiang quickly went to the kitchen to help Lin Feng serve the dishes.
Soon, the two sat at the dining table for lunch.
"This is really delicious. Little Feng, your cooking skills are now better than Auntie's."
Lin Feng smiled and said, "As long as Auntie likes it. But I still love Auntie's cooking more."
"Will you cook for if Auntie wants to eat in the future?"
Yu ixiang asked expectantly, seemingly forgetting she had just told Lin Feng not to cook...
"Of course, anyti Auntie wants to eat, I'll cook."
"Little Feng, you're such a warm-hearted guy. Your future girlfriend will definitely be super lucky," Yu ixiang sighed.
Lin Feng disagreed, "A girlfriend won't be that lucky. I just want Auntie to be super happy."
This comnt made Yu ixiang feel a bit strange, but she couldn't help teasing, "Silly boy, you'll eventually find a girlfriend. You can't treat them differently; all girls need to be pampered."
"By the way, Little Feng, have you dated anyone at school? Or is there a girl you like, or soone who likes you?"
Seeing Yu ixiang suddenly gossiping, Lin Feng found it amusing and said, "None at all. I'm not interested in those underage kids."
"Do you like girls older than you?" Yu ixiang was surprised.
Without thinking, Lin Feng nodded and said, "Yeah, what's the point of talking to little girls? They're not fully grown, and most have a bad temper, hard to please. Mature won are different, sexy, gentle, and considerate, just like Auntie."
Yu ixiang blushed instantly, thinking Little Feng's taste in partners was quite peculiar.
Most young boys liked younger, obedient, and sensible girls, but he preferred older ones. Could he even like mature won?
But she was too embarrassed to ask.
"You probably haven't t a girl you truly like. When you do, you'll think differently. After all, Auntie is getting older, no longer young and beautiful, lacking any allure."
At this, Yu ixiang seed a bit lancholic, even losing her appetite.
Won fear aging the most. No matter how beautiful, once they age, their charm fades.
Seeing her worried expression, Lin Feng found it amusing and reassured her, "Auntie, don't worry. This problem is actually easy to solve."
"Hmm?"
Lin Feng explained, "In 'The Grand Martial World,' there are martial arts and elixirs that can keep you looking young forever, perfectly solving this problem."
Unexpectedly, Yu ixiang imdiately felt downcast, "There's no such martial art or elixir. Even though I don't play, I know so things. If such martial arts existed, the whole world would go crazy. Little Feng, don't comfort Auntie with kind lies."
Lin Feng smiled wryly. Just because people didn't know didn't an they didn't exist; those martial arts and elixirs were just extrely rare and precious.
As far as he knew, there were several.
For example, the "Mingyu Skill" from the Flower Palace. Reaching the eighth level could enhance beauty, and the ninth level could even reverse aging and maintain youth.
Then there's the "Divine Skill" from the Xiaoyao Sect. After mastering it, Ding Chunqiu transford from an old man into a young lad.
And the "Eternal Youth Skill" practiced by Tianshan Tonglao, all capable of preserving youth.
However, these skills were of high level and extrely difficult to master, so it's normal for players not to know.
But it's not a big deal. When the opportunity arises, Lin Feng will help Yu ixiang get them.
