Chapter 654: Chapter 533: Swear Not to Serve Others
Above Lin Feng’s head, a mad rush of killing intent poured down.
In an instant, Lin Feng’s entire body turned ice-cold, his hair standing on end, as an extremely dangerous sensation surged from the bottom of his heart.
"Not good!"
Lin Feng’s face was struck with horror as he swiftly embraced Hong Qingxuan beside him and dodged to the side with extreme speed.
Whoosh!
A dazzling beam of light, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound, descended from the sky, shooting past by Lin Feng’s side and tearing his robe apart.
Boom!
The light struck the lake and reached its bottom, where it explosively detonated, lifting the water from the lake within several miles up a hundred zhang high, forming colossal waves that surged wildly in all directions.
"Who is it!"
Lin Feng roared furiously, abruptly lifting his head to look above, his heart aflame with rage, realizing that if he hadn’t dodged quickly, he would have undoubtedly died.
At this moment, amongst the clouds above, stood three figures, three young figures.
One of them was none other than Tao Wei, who had failed to kill Lin Feng last time and escaped.
As for the other two, one wore a yellow robe, the other donned blue clothes; Lin Feng had seen them before too—they were Heavenly Spirit Sect disciples whom he had met inside Ou Lianzi’s cave mansion, those who had also breached the second barrier.
These two Heavenly Spirit Sect disciples both had cultivation reaching Ninth Layer Heavenly Martial Master, their auras extremely powerful.
And the one who made the move just now, was the leading figure wearing yellow robes, a youth with a cold and harsh face, holding a long spear in his hand, with spear light that was chilling and brimming with murderous intent.
"Hmph! Quite a quick reaction!" The yellow-robed youth snorted coldly, his gaze icy.
"You, as Heavenly Spirit Sect disciples, actually helping outsiders against your own sect mates!" Lin Feng’s eyes slightly narrowed, staring at the two Heavenly Spirit Sect disciples. He no longer considered Tao Wei a threat, but these two could not be underestimated.
Theoretically, his strength was now not inferior to a Ninth Layer martial master, but there were two of them, and their combat power was unknown.
"Sect mates?"
Sneering at Lin Feng’s words, the yellow-robed youth said, "Our Luotian Peak and your Sky-reaching Peak have irreconcilable differences. What sect mates can you speak of!"
"Cousin, why waste words on him, just kill him directly."
At this point, Tao Wei spoke up, his voice thick with murderous intent as he coldly stared at Lin Feng and declared, "Lin Feng, today I will grind you to dust and scatter your ashes."
Lin Feng, upon hearing this, instantly realized that the two were cousins; no wonder they had come to kill him.
"Cousin, rest assured, he won’t escape the palm of my hand."
The yellow-robed youth chuckled lightly, it was Tao Wei who had asked for his assistance to kill Lin Feng, which also aligned with his own intentions.
As his gaze fell on Lin Feng, the yellow-robed youth asked, "Lin Feng, tell me, what did Ou Lianzi reward you with? Also, did you receive Ou Lianzi’s Artifact Refining Inheritance?"
During the second barrier, the yellow-robed youth had witnessed Lin Feng’s terrifying talent in spiritual power, so he speculated that Lin Feng was very likely to surpass their senior brother Xuan Feng and obtain Ou Lianzi’s inheritance.
Of course, it was only his guess and he was not certain.
"Nothing to tell!" Lin Feng responded indifferently.
"You truly do not know the meaning of death!"
The yellow-robed youth’s expression turned chilly, and he sneered, "No matter, I’ll search your Storage Ring once you’re dead."
Finishing his words, the yellow-robed youth then turned to Hong Qingxuan, who was still in Lin Feng’s embrace, and demanded, "Junior Sister Hong, we are looking for Lin Feng; get out of the way quickly!"
At this moment, Hong Qingxuan, held in Lin Feng’s embrace, felt the warmth from Lin Feng’s hands and the masculine scent emanating from him, causing her face to blush.
Hearing what the yellow-robed youth said, Hong Qingxuan’s face turned cold, and she yelled, "Xiao Xuanyi, you have some nerve, are you looking for death!"
"Hmph!"
The yellow-robed youth, Xiao Xuanyi, just snorted coldly in response and said, "Junior Sister Hong, if you do not appreciate our consideration, don’t blame us for being impolite."
Hong Qingxuan was about to retort, but Lin Feng quickly stopped her, speaking softly, "Qingxuan, go into the Divine Map Space."
"But...!" Hong Qingxuan’s pretty face showed concern. Xiao Xuanyi’s strength was formidable; he was a Ninth Layer Peak Heavenly Martial Master with exceedingly strong combat abilities, surpassing ordinary Ninth Layer Peak martial masters.
Among the Outer Disciples of Luotian Peak, Xiao Xuanyi’s strength was among the top 20.
Moreover, there was another Ninth Layer youth next to him—though Hong Qingxuan did not know the person, given their cultivation, their strength surely wouldn’t be weak.
"Don’t worry, these few small fries still can’t kill me!" Lin Feng gave Hong Qingxuan a reassuring look.
After hearing this, Hong Qingxuan bit her red lips tightly, then nodded. She was well aware of Lin Feng’s combat prowess; he had surpassed Tao Wei when he was at the Martial Master Fourth Layer, and now that he had reached the Martial Master Fifth Layer, even if he wasn’t a match for Xiao Xuanyi and his company, there was still hope for escape.
Moreover, her staying would distract Lin Feng. If the same situation occurred where she was captured and the enemies used her to threaten Lin Feng, that would be extremely lethal for him.
Immediately after, with a thought from Lin Feng, Hong Qingxuan’s figure vanished into thin air, as he sent her into the Void Divine Map.
"Huh?"
Tao Wei and his two companions were stunned to see Hong Qingxuan suddenly disappear, their faces showing astonishment.
"Where is she?" Tao Wei asked in confusion.
"Strange, how did she vanish into thin air?" The other blue-clothed youth was also full of puzzlement.
Xiao Xuanyi frowned slightly, his Spiritual Sense sweeping across a hundred miles, but he couldn’t find any trace of Hong Qingxuan.
"Let’s not bother with her for now!"
After a moment, Xiao Xuanyi shook his head, saying, "Cousin, Brother Jiang, you two guard the formation and prevent Lin Feng from escaping. I will execute him."
As his words fell, Xiao Xuanyi moved with lightning speed towards Lin Feng, from a high position he lunged down with his spear thrusting swiftly.
