Chapter 1284 Within Half an Hour
Spirit Gate,
In the magnificent reception hall.
Eight people with noble temperaments sat in various gold-patterned chairs,
Each of these eight individuals was extraordinarily powerful and revered by countless people.
At this moment, they gathered together, chatting and drinking tea, the atmosphere harmonious, completely unlike the oppressive darkness of the punishment hall earlier.
At the highest position sat the Vice Sect Master of Spirit Gate–Zhao Lin!
“I’m truly sorry, our Sect Master is in seclusion today and cannot receive distinguished guests from afar. Please forgive us, Friend Shengxu!”
Zhao Lin said with a smile.
“It’s no trouble! My Taixu Gate has always maintained good relations with your Spirit Gate. We were just passing by and thought to pay a visit!”
Master Shengxu responded politely.
Seeing this,
All the Spirit Gate ancestors, including Zhao Lin, felt surprised.
It should be known that since the decline of their Spirit Gate, the various powers in the Taixu Forbidden Zone had stopped bothering with them, especially Taixu Gate. What did Master Shengxu mean by such words now?
“Friend Shengxu is too kind!”
Zhao Lin maintained his pleasant smile.
Although he didn’t know Taixu Gate’s exact intentions, since the other party spoke this way, they must have come with goodwill, which excited him. He wondered silently if their Spirit Gate was about to rise again.
“It’s like this, when I attended your ancestral ceremony earlier, I saw a person wearing red…”
Master Shengxu got straight to the point, preparing to describe Huo Miaomiao’s appearance.
Unexpectedly at that moment,
A loud voice interrupted his words.
“Father!”
A handsome man in black clothing, Zhao Zhiping, strode in with confident steps. His dignified bearing resembled that of a mortal king, immediately attracting the attention of the Taixu Gate visitors.
When Zhao Zhiping stopped, Zhao Lin immediately laughed and said:
“Zhiping, you’ve come at the perfect time! We have distinguished guests today. Let me introduce you—this is Master Shengxu, the thirteenth elder of Taixu Gate. The others beside him are also officials from Taixu Gate, all renowned powerful cultivators!”
Hearing this, Zhao Zhiping immediately surveyed the Taixu Gate visitors, stepped forward with clasped hands, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly:
“Junior Zhao Zhiping pays respects to the seniors!”
“Friends, this is my son. What do you think? Impressive, isn’t he?”
Zhao Lin said proudly.
“Indeed! Truly a dragon among men!”
Master Shengxu offered praise, then eagerly continued his previous topic, saying with a smile:
“Earlier I saw an exceptionally beautiful woman wearing a fire-red dress. I wonder if I might meet her?”
“A woman in a fire-red dress?”
The Spirit Gate members’ eyes flickered.
No wonder the Taixu Gate people were so polite today—they had taken a fancy to one of their female disciples!
This old lecher!
No wonder his title sounds like “kidney deficiency”!
The ancestors inwardly sneered.
Beside them, Zhao Zhiping’s brows furrowed slightly. A beautiful woman in a fire-red dress—only one person matched that description: Huo Miaomiao, whom Du Feng had brought.
With this thought,
Zhao Zhiping walked to his father’s ear and whispered something.
Hearing this, the smile on Zhao Lin’s face gradually faded.
He had heard about his son’s usual activities, and if they weren’t too excessive, he didn’t mind. But he never expected that this time his son had offended the very woman Master Shengxu was asking about!
“Sect Master Zhao, what’s wrong?”
Master Shengxu noticed Zhao Lin’s expression and immediately asked.
“Nothing! We have many women in red dresses in our sect. I’ll call them over for you to see.”
Zhao Lin gave Zhao Zhiping a meaningful look.
Zhao Zhiping understood his intention and prepared to make arrangements.
But just then.
“Boom!”
Sudden explosions came from the direction of the main gate, accompanied by numerous shrill screams!
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
Screams and explosions rose and fell,
Moving from the main gate toward the reception hall!
The next moment!
A blood-stained guard staggered in, his face filled with terror as he said:
“Ancestors, terrible news, someone has broken in…”
“What?”
All the Spirit Gate ancestors stood up from their chairs in unison, their expressions filled with anger!
Although their Spirit Gate had declined, their strength was still considerable.
Who would dare to break in in broad daylight?
This was simply too outrageous!
Zhao Lin’s face darkened,
But remembering that Master Shengxu was sitting nearby, he forcibly suppressed his anger and asked:
“Is it the Xuan Clan attacking us?”
“Not the Xuan Clan, just two people, a man and a woman.”
The guard hurriedly replied.
As soon as he finished speaking.
“Bang!”
A guard flew in from outside, crashing heavily into the hall, splashing blood everywhere.
The next moment.
Lin Feng entered the hall calmly with Huo Miaomiao.
Behind them followed tens of thousands of Spirit Gate disciples, yet none dared to stop them. These disciples trembled as they held their weapons, their faces filled with terror, as if they had just witnessed something horrifying!
“Your Spirit Gate really has quite the attitude! Even daring to give me trouble?”
Lin Feng walked to the center of the hall with Huo Miaomiao and said calmly.
“Swoosh!”
Seeing this,
The ancestors immediately became alert, surrounding Lin Feng and Huo Miaomiao.
Zhao Lin’s expression turned cold. Just as he was about to speak, a disciple rushed forward and quickly explained what had happened.
After hearing the disciple’s words,
Zhao Lin’s pupils contracted, and the hands behind his back began to reveal bulging veins.
One slap per person.
This man, all the way here,
Whether disciples, officials, or elders, not one could withstand even a casual slap from him. Fortunately, this man had no killing intent and only injured them, otherwise who knows how many would have died!
“It’s you! You really do have connections with Spirit Gate!”
Master Shengxu’s eyes lit up when he saw Lin Feng arrive.
“Hum!”
Seeing this, Zhao Lin became even more unsettled!
So Taixu Gate came for this young man?
Then the woman in the red dress beside him must be…
Zhao Lin glanced at Zhao Zhiping and saw his son’s gloomy face, making his heart sink as he realized things were very bad!
“Friend Shengxu, who is this?”
Zhao Lin asked.
“You don’t know?”
Master Shengxu looked strange, then added: “Then I don’t know either!”
Seeing this, Zhao Lin could only turn his gaze to Lin Feng and ask with a smile:
“How has our Spirit Gate offended this friend? Enough to warrant forcing your way in!”
“You haven’t offended me. If you had truly offended me, it wouldn’t be as simple as injuring a few people.”
Lin Feng casually found a place to sit down.
Seeing this, Huo Miaomiao stepped forward boldly and said with gathered courage:
“We’re here to find my brother Huo Lingzi and Brother Du Feng. What crime did he commit to be imprisoned in your punishment hall?”
At these words,
Everyone present from Spirit Gate turned their gaze toward Zhao Zhiping!
Regarding Du Feng’s matter,
They knew everything clearly.
“Du Feng colluded with the Xuan Clan and harmed his fellow disciples. He has already confessed to this crime.”
Zhao Zhiping announced loudly.
He took out a recently made recording stone,
In it, the badly injured Du Feng lay on the ground, speaking those words of confession!
Seeing this, Huo Miaomiao’s expression became dazed.
How could this be?
Was Brother Du Feng truly a cunning villain who betrayed his people?
“As for your brother, he left Spirit Gate a few days ago, saying he was going to find his sister!”
Zhao Zhiping continued.
With these two simple sentences, he had covered up the entire matter.
“My brother went to find me?”
Huo Miaomiao murmured.
She didn’t suspect anything at the moment, because her brother, knowing she wasn’t there, would certainly go out to look for her.
But just then.
“Bang!”
A mist of blood exploded in the hall.
The guard who had reported the news was instantly killed by a breath Lin Feng exhaled!
“If I don’t see Huo Lingzi within half an hour, everyone present will die!”
Lin Feng said coldly.
