Chapter 1392 Meeting an Old Friend in a Foreign Land
“No way!”
Sun Badian waved his hand impatiently.
As the steward of the City Lord’s mansion, there were always people trying to gain favors from him without putting in any effort, which annoyed him greatly!
“At first, I directly refused him too!”
The guard paused, then continued:
“But that person said he must see you, and if you refuse, he would force his way in! Some of our brothers have already been injured!”
“What?”
“Looking for death!”
Sun Badian and the Xuan Armor Army commander’s pupils contracted upon hearing this, their anger uncontrollable!
What era was this now?
Someone actually dared to commit such an outrageous act!
“Let him in.”
At this moment, Hua Yunfei spoke calmly.
Sun Badian was about to refuse when he saw Hua Yunfei say with a complicated expression:
“It should be him who has arrived!”
“After many years apart, now old friends reunite. I wonder what kind of scene this will be!”
Upon hearing this,
Sun Badian was stunned.
The Xuan Armor Army commander was also dumbfounded!
Him?
Could it be…
Both men’s expressions changed slightly, never expecting Lin Feng to be so bold as to come to the City Lord’s mansion on his own!
Didn’t he know that the old City Lord was from the Spirit Clan?
“How bold!”
Sun Badian’s eyes flickered as he waved his hand, signaling the guards to bring in the visitor!
Shortly after,
Under the guard’s escort,
Lin Feng strode in confidently, initially with a calm expression, appearing completely at ease!
But the next moment,
Upon seeing Hua Yunfei sitting at the head of the table, he froze, his footsteps halting as he stood there in shock!
“Brother Lin, long time no see!”
Hua Yunfei stood up, taking the initiative to greet him with a smile!
“It’s you!”
Lin Feng came to his senses, his expression filled with shock!
Regarding Sun Badian’s sudden change of heart in helping him escape.
He had considered countless possibilities, but never imagined it would be because of Hua Yunfei.
“Lin Feng, you truly are audacious. With so many powerful experts searching for your whereabouts outside, you still dare to come to my City Lord’s mansion!”
Sun Badian couldn’t help but sneer.
“Why wouldn’t I dare? There’s no place in the world I, Lin Feng, wouldn’t dare to go. It’s only a question of whether it’s worth it!”
Lin Feng responded coldly.
He took a deep breath, then solemnly sat down directly across from Hua Yunfei, his eyes continuously scanning Hua Yunfei, growing more shocked the longer he looked!
After many years,
Hua Yunfei had progressed from an ordinary mortal to this level!
Blood churning within his body, surrounded by celestial energy, divinely extraordinary…
What kind of miraculous encounter could have led to this?
“Since our hasty parting at Spirit Cloud Trading Company, many years have passed. Brother Lin, you’re still the same, haven’t changed a bit.”
Hua Yunfei sighed.
“I haven’t changed, but you have. Even three days apart can change how we see someone!”
Lin Feng had too many questions in his heart,
Wondering how Hua Yunfei had reached this point?
Wondering why Hua Yunfei was at the City Lord’s mansion?
Back then,
Wasn’t Hua Yunfei taken away by the president of the Spirit Cloud Trading Company?
“Manager Sun, Uncle Zeyang, you two should leave first… I haven’t seen him for many years and would like to chat with him privately.”
Hua Yunfei looked toward Sun Badian and the other man.
Sun Badian and the Xuan Armor Army commander hesitated briefly upon hearing this, then both nodded and quickly left the room.
After they left,
Hua Yunfei poured tea for Lin Feng with a gentle expression, recounting past events…
They were truly old friends!
From when Lin Feng had just come down from the mountain, they had experienced various things together. Who would have thought that after so many years, they would meet in Sky City in the Taixu Realm. Meeting an old friend in a foreign land stirred emotions that made both men feel somewhat sentimental!
“How did you end up here?”
Lin Feng asked solemnly.
“The old City Lord, who is my master, once traveled through the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, serving as the president of the Spirit Cloud Trading Company!”
Hua Yunfei responded with a smile.
Lin Feng was shocked upon hearing this. Spirit Cloud Trading Company was originally a top power in the Spirit Realm, but he never imagined it was merely something the old City Lord created casually for amusement!
“If that’s the case, the recent widespread rumors about an unparalleled genius comprehending the celestial dao essence must be about you!”
“People are ignorant and blind, how could they understand the inner workings?”
“I did comprehend the celestial dao essence of Taixu Lake, but my celestial affinity is still shallow, and my future remains uncertain between fortune and disaster.”
Hua Yunfei said.
“Brother Yunfei is still so modest. With your current strength, you’re probably not weaker than me, right?”
Lin Feng’s eyes flickered.
Hearing this, Hua Yunfei didn’t speak, but put down his teacup, stood up and walked to the window, looking at the dim sky in the distance, silent.
Seeing this, Lin Feng also remained quiet!
After a long while,
Hua Yunfei turned around and smiled:
“Brother Lin, do you remember what I told you a long time ago?”
“What?”
“I was born mortal, but my ambition reaches the heavens! In ancient times, Emperor Qin established the martial way, while I wanted to create a path for mortals to become immortals, but in the end, I failed… A mortal body is just a mortal body, unable to cultivate immortality!”
“But now you…”
“Me now? Hehe…”
Hua Yunfei suddenly laughed, his face showing thousands of emotions, as if hiding something difficult to express.
Lin Feng noticed Hua Yunfei’s inner conflict and solemnly said:
“If you have something on your mind, you can tell me!”
“There’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world, nor does anyone succeed easily. Benefits and risks coexist… Do you understand what I mean?”
Hua Yunfei said slowly.
Lin Feng’s expression froze upon hearing this, carefully pondering the deeper meaning of these words!
Then,
As if realizing something, his pupils contracted as he looked at Hua Yunfei and said in a low voice:
“You…”
“Shh!”
Hua Yunfei shook his head, then smiled as if relieved:
“The path I’ve walked to reach where I am today wasn’t actually difficult. I simply followed my master’s requirements, step by step!”
“Master spent an enormous price to refine the celestial blood from Taixu Lake to replace my blood and taught me supreme divine methods. I’ve been exceptionally intelligent since childhood, and standing on the shoulders of giants, comprehending the celestial dao essence didn’t seem like such a difficult task.”
Looking at Hua Yunfei’s smiling face,
Lin Feng suddenly felt a blockage in his heart, like a fishbone stuck in his throat!
How could he not guess the meaning behind Hua Yunfei’s words?
“Do you know how the Spirit Clan came to be?”
Hua Yunfei suddenly changed the subject, speaking mysteriously:
“During the war of immortals, people of the Spirit Clan were all mortals like me, living in constant fear during chaotic times!”
“Later, Taixu Lake formed, and the Spirit Clan suddenly rose to prominence, producing figures like my master, and from then on rose steadily, now comparable to the ancient hidden clans!”
Lin Feng’s heart trembled upon hearing this!
He remembered the mountain spirit of Burial Sword Mountain, the blue-robed woman of Taixu Ancient Forest, and now connecting with Hua Yunfei’s words, the whole story suddenly became clear.
The old City Lord was the lake spirit of Taixu Lake!
A being of the same kind as the mountain spirit and the blue-robed woman!
The more Lin Feng thought about it, the more shocked he became, growing increasingly wary of the old City Lord. Such a figure had hidden his true nature so deeply…
“Brother Yunfei, come with me… You’re in great danger here, likely being used for someone else’s benefit!”
Lin Feng transmitted mentally,
Not daring to speak these words aloud.
