Chapter 1148 Growth
The Li family members looked at the Demon Tower with troubled expressions.
They really wanted to kill Lin Feng, but they couldn’t possibly attack Ye Xuan’s magical artifact, so Li Xiuyuan could only shift his gaze toward Ye Xuan.
The outcome of today’s events rested entirely on Ye Xuan’s whim.
“You’ve really put me on the spot…”
Ye Xuan suddenly smiled.
He ignored the small tower and looked at Lin Feng, asking:
“I have no connection to you, yet I’ve saved you several times now?”
“Thank you for your trouble, senior!”
Lin Feng cupped his hands in response, but felt his heart bleeding.
“It’s indeed troublesome! Without strength, you go around causing problems, waiting for others to clean up your mess. Is that fun?”
Ye Xuan sneered.
“Yes!”
Lin Feng nodded.
Seeing Lin Feng’s demeanor, Ye Xuan lost all interest in further conversation. With a wave of his hand, he forcibly retrieved the small tower, then turned around as a golden path appeared beneath his feet.
He was about to leave!
However, before departing, he left behind one sentence.
“Since I’ve come, he cannot die!”
As soon as the words fell,
Ye Xuan’s figure disappeared from everyone’s sight.
This scene left everyone present feeling a sense of loss. Such a powerful figure was rarely seen in the mortal world; they might only witness someone like him once in their lifetime!
Afterward,
Others shifted their gaze toward Lin Feng, feeling that he now looked like a clown,
Having no real ability, yet trying to use Senior Ye Xuan?
It was simply asking for humiliation!
“Xiuyuan, what did Senior Ye Xuan mean just now?”
Li Long asked in a low voice.
“What else could he mean? He wants to protect Lin Feng! Can’t you understand?”
Li Xiuyuan’s face was cold, his heart unwilling to accept.
Just a little more, just a little more!
If he had been more decisive earlier and killed Lin Feng before Ye Xuan arrived, given the shallow relationship between Ye Xuan and Lin Feng, Ye Xuan probably wouldn’t have said anything!
But at the critical moment,
He became afraid and chose to stop, giving Lin Feng a chance to escape!
Regardless,
Since Ye Xuan had spoken, they couldn’t kill Lin Feng today. Not only could they not kill him, Lin Feng couldn’t even die in the East Divine Mountain area, otherwise it might cause misunderstandings.
“Hehe…”
Li Xiuyuan suddenly laughed, looking at Lin Feng mockingly, saying:
“You have little ability, but you’re quite good at boasting. This time you can barely count yourself lucky! But it’s only for this period. After this time passes, Senior Ye Xuan probably won’t care about you anymore! Who will save you then?”
“That’s not for you to worry about! Perhaps someday, your Li family will die faster than me.”
Lin Feng responded expressionlessly.
“Everything about you is soft except your mouth, which is too hard! During this period, you’d better not leave the East Divine Mountain area, otherwise my Li family will definitely kill you!”
Li Xiuyuan threatened coldly.
Afterward, he turned and left without hesitation, leading the grand procession of Li family members as they disappeared into the horizon.
Seeing this, the Lin family members gave Lin Feng a complicated look before quickly departing as well!
During this time,
Lin Ben seemed to want to say something but ultimately said nothing.
He knew the situation had escalated to a very complex level. This wasn’t just about Li Tianyi’s death, but a matter of the Li family’s dignity. Additionally, because he had forcibly tried to help Lin Feng this time, he would likely face questioning when he returned to the clan, and his days wouldn’t be easy.
“Brother San Niu, one day, I will visit your Lin family. I remember everything you’ve done today!”
Lin Feng suddenly said.
“Hehe…”
Lin Ben gave a complicated smile and finally left.
Lin Feng watched as the group gradually moved away, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
Anger, blame, unwillingness?
What right did he have now to produce such emotions?!
“Li family…”
Lin Feng muttered.
This was truly the lowest point of his life, with both body and spirit severely tormented, yet he could only silently endure it, because whatever he did now, in the eyes of the people in the Taixu Realm, he was just like a clown.
As proud as he was, as destitute as he was!
“Damn it! This Ye Xuan isn’t a decent person. Despite how much we admired him, he turned out to be selfish and self-serving!”
Immortal Old Eccentric cursed, then said to Lin Feng:
“Kid, don’t be afraid! If worst comes to worst, I’ll bring the foundation of the Kuixian Clan over… I don’t believe this Li family can turn the world upside down! Do they really think they’re the masters of East Divine Mountain?”
“I’ve never been afraid of anything, I just feel somewhat weary.”
Lin Feng squeezed out a smile.
Seeing this, everyone felt emotional.
In their impression, Lin Feng had always been confident and proud, and this was the first time he showed such a tired expression.
Perhaps what hurt him wasn’t the Li family,
But Ye Xuan, whom he considered one of his own.
A proud person can be stabbed thousands of times by others, but nothing hurts more than a casual cut from someone close.
“Ye Xuan’s personality has always been like this. I thought he would give some face considering the Demon Tower! But I didn’t expect that after so much time, he’s become even colder.”
Chen Beixuan suddenly said.
“No need to explain, I don’t blame him. After all, at least when he left, he said a word to save me, didn’t he? That’s a favor, and I won’t be ungrateful.”
Lin Feng shook his head.
Hearing this, Chen Beixuan sighed lightly and said:
“His personality is getting colder, perhaps related to his path. He’s truly about to become an immortal, getting closer to the immortal way, becoming an immortal in an alternative way, cutting off all emotions and desires, only being himself!”
Hearing these words,
Everyone’s hearts trembled.
Ye Xuan’s way, Ye Xuan’s path, was not something they could understand!
Cutting off everything just to become an immortal, how many people in the world could do that?
A world-shocking dispute ended so quietly.
The expected great battle didn’t come, but what happened in Tongzhou City quickly spread throughout the entire East Divine Mountain region, and even the other divine mountains heard about it.
Ye Xuan, who had been missing for so long, had appeared,
Causing unease among many important figures.
They vaguely felt that the Taixu Realm, which had been peaceful for a long time, might not remain peaceful much longer. This was the beginning of a change.
As for the person involved, Lin Feng,
Few people mentioned him, and even when they did, it was only as a joke.
At this moment,
It was already late at night.
Lin Feng had bid farewell to all the old seniors of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths during the day,
Then went to the Ancient God Clan’s territory with their people.
He was going to help the Ancient God Clan activate the Five Elements Formation, help them remove the curse, and incidentally absorb several origin powers collected by the Ancient God Clan.
However, before that,
His injuries were not yet stable, and he needed to recuperate properly!
Just like that, three months passed in the blink of an eye.
Lin Feng returned to his peak condition, but he was noticeably more reserved than before.
