Chapter 163: People Die for Wealth, Birds Die for Food
“Everyone, don’t panic! I’ve gathered you all here for a reason! Naturally, I have some confidence!”
“In fact, this demon beast isn’t particularly strong. I’ve fought it before, and its strength is roughly at the level of a half-step Martial Arts Master! As long as we work together, we can definitely handle it!”
Zhuge Mochen said with a smile.
Half-step Martial Arts Master?
The crowd stirred at his words!
There were more than twenty innate realm martial artists present, and killing a demon beast with the strength of a half-step Martial Arts Master was entirely within their capabilities!
“Since Senior Zhuge has said so, let’s hurry into the mountains!”
“Exactly! I can’t wait to dig for spirit stones!”
“A single spirit stone is worth around eighty to ninety million, and when made into spirit explosion bombs, it can sell for over a hundred million! If I casually divide a few hundred, that’s several billion!”
The martial artists were all excitedly discussing.
Nangong Shenhua, Niu Ben, Lin Feihai, and others also had a glint in their eyes, not expecting the guardian of the spiritual vein to be so weak!
It was like picking up money!
Truly admirable, Zhuge Mochen!
Always thinking of everyone when good things come!
“Since everyone agrees, we shouldn’t delay any longer. Let’s set off!”
Zhuge Mochen smiled slightly and led the way into the mountains.
The others followed closely behind.
Watching the group leave, Liu Neng couldn’t wait any longer and urged Lin Feng beside him:
“Young Master Lin, let’s hurry and catch up!”
Lin Feng did not follow; instead, he said calmly, “No rush. Let’s wait until they’ve mostly died before we go.”
“What do you mean?”
Liu Neng was taken aback.
“This Zhuge Mochen is lying. He is already a Martial Arts Master; how could he possibly struggle against a half-step Martial Arts Master demon beast?”
Lin Feng sneered.
“Zhuge Mochen is a Martial Arts Master?”
“That’s right! He must have used some secret method to conceal his aura at the half-step Master level, but unfortunately, this method is too low-level and I saw through it easily!”
“And this time, he has meticulously gathered so many people here, clearly with ulterior motives, and it certainly isn’t anything good; otherwise, he wouldn’t need to hide it from everyone!”
As Lin Feng spoke, a glint of light flashed in his eyes.
This Zhuge Mochen was quite sinister; could it be that he was secretly practicing some dark arts, intending to sacrifice many lives?
Liu Neng’s expression turned uncertain upon hearing this.
In everyone’s eyes, Zhuge Mochen was a highly respected and selfless elder!
If it weren’t for Young Master Lin saying so, he would never have believed it!
“Knowing a person’s face but not their heart! I didn’t expect Zhuge Mochen to be so treacherous!”
Liu Neng’s expression was filled with anger and anxiety as he said, “Young Master Lin, what should we do now? If this is truly a trap, won’t that group of people be doomed?”
“People die for wealth, birds die for food!”
“Since they chose this path, they must pay the price for their choices! Isn’t that how it should be?”
“Of course! If they are lucky enough to hold on until I arrive, that would be like saving their lives.”
As Lin Feng spoke, he shifted his gaze to a dark corner and said lightly, “Now that everyone has left, you don’t need to hide anymore, do you?”
Someone else?
Liu Neng was startled and immediately followed Lin Feng’s gaze.
Not far away, behind a massive tree trunk, a figure in black slowly stepped out!
The figure was completely covered, with only a pair of eyes visible. Liu Neng felt those eyes were somewhat familiar but couldn’t recall who it was for a moment!
“How did you know I was hiding behind the tree?”
The figure in black asked in a hoarse voice.
“I said you just farted, and it stinks to me. Do you believe it?” Lin Feng replied.
The figure’s eyes flashed with a cold light upon hearing this!
He hadn’t farted at all; Lin Feng was clearly mocking him!
“Lin Shuhan, I let you off once before; why are you so intent on seeking death now?”
Lin Feng suddenly sighed.
Upon hearing this, Liu Neng immediately remembered why the figure’s eyes seemed so familiar!
Indeed!
These were the eyes of Lin Shuhan, the legitimate son of the Lin family, identical in every way!
“Lin Shuhan, so it’s you!”
Liu Neng exclaimed in surprise.
“You do have some insight!”
Lin Shuhan didn’t expect to be recognized, but he didn’t mind; after all, there were only the three of them present!
In his view, Lin Feng and Liu Neng would soon be dead!
Lin Shuhan tore off the mask from his face, revealing his true appearance, and said indifferently, “Lin Feng, I have to admit, you are a genius! But unfortunately, geniuses often meet untimely ends!”
“Hand over the Spirit Crossing Flower, and I can leave you with a whole corpse!”
“The Spirit Crossing Flower has already been used by me,” Lin Feng replied.
Lin Shuhan couldn’t help but laugh upon hearing this, clearly not believing it!
He scoffed, “Trying to deceive me? The Spirit Crossing Flower won’t bloom for several more days, and besides, do you foolish martial artists even have the ability to absorb its energy?”
Lin Feng had initially intended to slap Lin Shuhan to death, but upon hearing this, a look of surprise crossed his eyes as he asked, “You’re not a martial artist?”
“Hahaha… Am I a martial artist? You actually thought I was a martial artist? How ignorant and fearless!”
Lin Shuhan suddenly burst into wild laughter.
His demeanor changed instantly, becoming ancient and desolate, with a pair of eyes exuding a domineering aura that looked down upon all living beings!
“Lin Feng, offending me is truly the biggest mistake of your life!”
“I know you must have a powerful martial arts force backing you, but unfortunately, even that force is not worth my attention!”
“Or rather, in today’s world, there is no one who can catch my eye!”
“In a sense, I, the Old Ancestor of Ghost Ming, am the god in your eyes!”
As he finished speaking, a terrifying aura erupted from Lin Shuhan’s body.
In an instant, a fierce wind surged, causing the surrounding trees to sway violently!
A vast energy swept through, making Liu Neng’s legs go weak, nearly causing him to fall to the ground.
“So… so strong!”
Liu Neng’s mind went blank!
What was happening?
How could Lin Shuhan, a postnatal realm martial artist, release such a terrifying aura?
This aura was likely not far from that of a Martial Arts Master!
“Qi Refining Practitioner!”
Lin Feng looked astonished, feeling it was quite unbelievable.
He used his spiritual sense to scan Lin Shuhan and found that he was indeed at the Qi Refining stage, and at the ninth level, just one step away from the Foundation Establishment stage!
But why hadn’t he noticed this before?
Could it be that Lin Shuhan had some profound method to conceal his aura?
Lin Feng pondered silently!
“Lin Feng, have you seen my strength? I’ll give you one more chance to hand over the Spirit Crossing Flower, and I’ll leave you with a whole corpse!!”
“My patience is limited; otherwise, when I make my move, you won’t be able to block even one strike!”
Lin Shuhan said from a high position.
“You, a mere Qi Refining Practitioner, why are you talking so much?” Lin Feng said impatiently as he slapped out.
