Chapter 597: Chapter 615: An Unexpected Outco
Lin Feng and Yang Rui leisurely enjoyed the dishes at the Tang Building. To be fair, the chef’s skills here were indeed impressive; every dish was up to the standards of the Imperial City Grand Restaurant in terms of color, aroma, and taste.
Lin Feng’s generous tip of a top-grade Star Stone to the shop assistant surprised everyone in the restaurant. Everyone understands the adage of not flaunting wealth; at this mont, a couple of people had already set their sights on Lin Feng and Yang Rui.
After finishing their al, Lin Feng asked the shop assistant to take them to their prepared guest room. At this mont, Lin Feng said to Yang Rui, "Rui’er, do you think soone will co to rob us tonight?"
"Soone definitely will. Didn’t you see the greedy eyes of a few people looking at us earlier? Bla it on your generous tip to the assistant. Those people angered
so much, I really don’t understand why you did that," Yang Rui said.
"I just want to see which foolish people will co courting death. Tonight might be a sleepless night; why don’t you go to sleep first?" Lin Feng replied.
"Do you really think I’m a pig? It’s still early, and you’re already thinking that. Why don’t you tell
about what has happened to you these past two years?" Yang Rui said.
Lin Feng then recounted so matters regarding the Green Frost Sect to Yang Rui and also told her about marrying Ouyang Qian and Qing Ruming, which left Yang Rui feeling both frustrated and amused.
"Lin Feng, I really don’t understand why you marry so many won. Is it because of your special physique, or are you just a lecher?" Yang Rui asked.
"Are you unhappy?" Lin Feng did not answer directly and instead asked.
"Even if I’m unhappy, what could I do about it? Now that you’re marrying Tang Li, I really hope you can restrain yourself a bit. Too many won will inevitably lead to jealousy and disputes, and nothing good cos out of unpleasant situations," Yang Rui said helplessly, resigning to the reality.
"Don’t worry, I know my limits. Why don’t you absorb so of the Star Power and break through to the Ninth Level of Earth Martial Realm sooner? I’ll stand by to protect you and, at the sa ti, wait for those courting death to show up today," Lin Feng said.
Yang Rui nodded. She realized that her power was indeed too weak, and if she wanted to be with Lin Feng, she had to strengthen herself as soon as possible. She took out the Star Crystal Lin Feng gave her and began to absorb it slowly.
The Star Power inside the Star Crystal was imnse, and within an instant, it filled her Earth Star Pill entirely. It was a situation she had never encountered before, and she looked at Lin Feng in shock.
Lin Feng naturally understood Yang Rui’s reaction and said, "This is a Star Crystal, equivalent to a billion lower-grade Star Stones. The Star Power inside it is, of course, overwhelming. If you fully absorb it, you can at least break through to the Fifth Layer of Celestial Martial Realm. Clear your mind and absorb it."
Yang Rui’s heart surged with emotions; she never expected Lin Feng would give her sothing so precious. After calming herself down, she began to absorb it once more.
Ti slowly passed. Yang Rui continued to absorb the Star Crystal while Lin Feng closed his eyes to rest. Unknowingly, it was already midnight. Lin Feng had extinguished the candle long ago, waiting for those courting death to arrive.
Shortly after, light footsteps were heard outside the door. Lin Feng smiled slightly; he knew those he was waiting for had finally arrived.
Even though the candle was extinguished, Lin Feng’s eyesight allowed him to see everything in the room clearly. At this ti, he noticed a small hole in the window through which a wisp of white smoke started to blow into the room.
Lin Feng chuckled inwardly. How bold of them to use knockout smoke against him; it seed they feared his strength. He gently woke Yang Rui, who was absorbing Star Power, and told her to hold her breath as the show was about to begin.
After about half a stick of incense, the sound of the door opening was heard. Whoever it was seed quite cautious. Two people entered, both masked with black cloth coverings.
"Big Brother, do you think the two of them have been knocked out by the smoke?" one of them asked softly.
"Don’t worry, my smoke is extrely potent. Even experts at the Celestial Martial Realm would be knocked out. These two were so generous; they must have a lot of Star Stones. We’re in for a big haul this ti," the other replied.
Knowing the smoke’s effectiveness, the one who spoke first took out flint and steel and lit a candle, ready to check Lin Feng and Yang Rui’s belongings, only to find Lin Feng laughing and looking at them.
"Y-you’re okay?" The one called Big Brother, seeing Lin Feng, looked as if he had seen a ghost and asked in fright.
"Did you really think your disgraceful tricks could knock
out? Surprised?" Lin Feng said.
At that mont, the two finally understood that Lin Feng and Yang Rui weren’t sleeping in bed but instead sitting by the table. Clearly, they anticipated the visit.
"Let’s go!" the masked man called Big Brother hastily said, and with a flash, he dashed towards the door. But how could Lin Feng let him escape? After waiting so long, it would be a sha not to have so fun.
With a wave of his hand, a powerful suction force appeared. At that mont, the masked man could no longer move a muscle and uncontrollably retreated backward. The other was more dumbfounded, wielding a long sword and slashing toward Lin Feng.
Lin Feng slightly moved his other palm, and that masked man was instantly lifted, levitating mid-air and unable to move.
"Lin Feng, how should we deal with these two? Kill them or cripple them?" Yang Rui asked.
"Lin Feng? Are you Lin Feng, the one from the Yang Sect’s martial competition?" one of them asked in horror.
"Haha, it seems you attended the Yang Sect’s martial competition. Tell , do you have any last words, and maybe I’ll help you fulfill them," Lin Feng chuckled.
"Young Master Chu, spare us. It’s my ignorance not recognizing Mount Tai. Had we known it was you, even with twenty-four guts, we wouldn’t have dared to co," the masked man called Big Brother said.
"You can live, but you must answer so questions. If I’m satisfied, I’ll spare your lives and even give you so Star Stones. Rember, I need the truth. If you lie, you know the consequences," Lin Feng said, releasing them. Instantly, a ball of five-colored fla appeared in his hand.
"What does Young Master Chu need to know? We will definitely tell the truth!" the two said in unison.
Lin Feng glanced at them, a peculiar thought crossing his mind, and asked, "How long have you two been doing this?"
"It’s been five years," one of them answered.
"Have you encountered any special incidents or unusual phenona?" Lin Feng asked.
After a mont of contemplation, both shook their heads. Lin Feng was slightly disappointed, although he didn’t really expect to get useful information from them.
"Young Master Chu, I rember seeing a Flying Magical Beast engulfed in fire a year ago while passing through a valley. Does that count?" the so-called Big Brother said...
