Chapter 395: Jin Xiaoya
“Swish, swish, swish~”
Along with the sound of screams, three swift gusts of air rushed in!
Lin Feng let out a cold laugh and casually pinched, catching three silver needles!
The three silver needles shimmered with a faint golden light in the darkness, exuding a mesmerizing aura that could enchant the soul.
“This is… a Soul-Confounding Needle?”
Lin Feng looked at the silver needles in his hand, a flicker of surprise crossing his eyes. This was a method of artifact refinement!
It involved soaking the silver needles in the liquid of the Soul-Confounding Herb and then refining them using a special technique for a total of seventy-seven days and nineteen nights, after which the needles would carry the enchanting aura!
If one were to be pricked by these needles, even a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage would fall into a brief faint!
As for the Soul-Confounding Herb, it wasn’t particularly rare; its effect was akin to modern anesthetics…
At this moment, the woman rushing over saw her Soul-Confounding Needles easily blocked by Lin Feng, and a look of despair appeared on her face.
She knelt down dejectedly, her beautiful eyes fixed on Lin Feng, pleading, “My lord! My daughter was just playing around; she truly meant no harm…”
“Mother… Mother!”
The woman in black saw her mother kneeling on the ground and immediately reddened her eyes, struggling violently.
“Bang!”
Lin Feng threw the woman in black next to her mother.
“Xiao Ya!”
“Mom!”
The mother and daughter embraced and cried, taking a long time to gradually calm down.
Then, they both unconsciously shifted their terrified gazes toward Lin Feng!
This man was indeed as powerful as the rumors suggested!
Just standing there, with a few casual movements, made them feel powerless, as if facing a great mountain!
“Who are you?”
Lin Feng had initially intended to eliminate these two, but upon seeing the Soul-Confounding Needles, he changed his mind!
The Soul-Confounding Needle was a relic from the ancient cultivation world, long since lost to time; he had only learned it from an old man back then.
“Reporting to my lord, we are from the Half-Island Nation! My name is Quan Renxian! This is my daughter, Jin Xiao Ya!”
The woman hurriedly replied.
“Half-Island Nation?”
Lin Feng frowned slightly.
The relationship between the Half-Island Nation and the Great Xia was quite good.
The two countries had been exchanging ideas since ancient times, developing a deep friendship up to the present day.
In other words, the Half-Island Nation could be seen as a smaller version of Great Xia!
This country also practiced martial arts, and in ancient times, the Half-Island Nation had its own cultivators…
“Did you make this Soul-Confounding Needle?”
Lin Feng continued to ask.
Upon hearing this, Quan Renxian’s pupils constricted, seemingly surprised that Lin Feng knew about the Soul-Confounding Needle!
After hesitating for a moment, she nodded and said, “Indeed, the Soul-Confounding Needle is a family secret. If my lord wishes to learn, I can teach you, only asking that you spare my and my daughter’s lives!”
“Mom! No! This is the greatest secret of our family! If it gets out, won’t we become the family’s sinners?”
Jin Xiao Ya immediately said anxiously.
But Quan Renxian shook her head slightly and said, “Xiao Ya, my life is not worth much, but I cannot bear to watch you die; otherwise, I would be betraying your missing father!”
“Mom… I’m not afraid of death!!!”
Jin Xiao Ya said firmly, then looked at Lin Feng and said, “We will not tell you the method to make the Soul-Confounding Needle. You can give up on that thought; do whatever you want! I, Jin Xiao Ya, will not be afraid!”
“Then I’ll grant your wish!”
“Ah!!!”
As Lin Feng raised his hand, Jin Xiao Ya instinctively screamed.
Seeing this scene, Lin Feng said with a hint of amusement, “Aren’t you not afraid? Why scream?”
“I’m not afraid of death; I’m just afraid of pain!”
“Don’t worry, I’m quick; you won’t feel any pain!”
“Then go ahead!!!”
Jin Xiao Ya said defiantly, then closed her eyes, appearing to be ready to sacrifice herself.
But her slightly trembling body betrayed her current feelings!
Lin Feng found it somewhat amusing.
Women truly are creatures of contradiction!
Clearly terrified, yet they insist on putting on a brave front; what’s the point?
“Swish~”
Lin Feng then reached out and grabbed the bronze mirror from Jin Xiao Ya’s chest, examining it closely.
He discovered that this bronze mirror was quite extraordinary!
The bronze mirror was very ancient, likely passed down from ancient times, and was a remarkable magical artifact!
However, for some unknown reason, the internal patterns were damaged, and it could now only be used for distant peeping!
Understanding the Soul-Confounding Needle and possessing such an ancient artifact, this mother-daughter duo had an impressive background!
Their ancestors must have been cultivators!
“Speak, what were you secretly observing me for?”
“If your reason convinces me, I will let you and your mother go!”
Lin Feng said while putting away the bronze mirror.
Seeing this, Jin Xiao Ya felt a pang of heartache, but after glancing at her mother beside her, she gritted her teeth and said, “Because I heard you are very powerful, so I wanted to see your…”
“Hmm?”
Lin Feng raised an eyebrow.
“I just heard about what happened during the day and became curious about you. I came to observe you secretly; my mother didn’t know at all!”
Jin Xiao Ya explained.
She was human too and feared death!
Now that she had a chance to live, her attitude improved significantly, and her eyes held genuine pleading as she looked at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng looked at the mother and daughter expressionlessly, remaining silent.
To be honest, both of them were very beautiful.
One looked like a budding flower, waiting to be picked.
The other resembled a ripe peach… waiting to be bitten into…
Especially as the mother and daughter lay helplessly on the ground, looking pitiful, they were truly heart-wrenching…
“Considering how obedient you are, I’ll let you off this time!”
“Remember, don’t do such foolish things in the future; not every strong person is as magnanimous as I am!”
Lin Feng casually said before turning to leave.
Jin Xiao Ya felt a huge sense of relief but quickly became furious, revealing her small tiger teeth!
So infuriating!
She, Jin Xiao Ya, was a goddess in the hearts of countless people in the Half-Island Nation.
Yet here, just because of curiosity about a man, she almost lost her life; it would be embarrassing to speak of it!
At that moment, Quan Renxian suddenly looked at Lin Feng’s back and said, “My lord, I have a heartfelt suggestion that I’m unsure whether to speak or not!”
“Hmm?”
Lin Feng turned to look at Quan Renxian.
“My lord, what you said during the day has now spread throughout Central Asia! All the forces are already paying attention to you. I think it’s best for you to leave here now and find a place to hide until the Western Sea Secret Realm opens before coming out!”
Quan Renxian said earnestly.
“Oh? Why? Do you think I’m weak and can’t afford to offend those major forces?”
Lin Feng said with a hint of amusement at the corner of his mouth.
“No! I know you’re strong, but this area is not as simple as you think!”
“A hundred years ago, our Half-Island Jin clan also had a figure as strong as you. When he came to Central Asia, he, like you, killed to establish his reputation, wanting to revitalize the Half-Island Nation and elevate its status in Central Asia!”
“But not long after, that ancestor of mine was killed, skinned, and hung under an old locust tree!”
“My husband came to Central Asia this time specifically to investigate this matter, but he has gone missing without a trace! His strength was also very formidable; even if he wasn’t as strong as you, he wasn’t far off!”
