Chapter 544: An Embrace
Joy, shock, complexity…
A myriad of emotions surged violently within Lin Feng’s heart.
He looked at the figure in black that had suddenly appeared before him, took a deep breath, and uttered three words:
“Sixth Senior Brother!”
“I thought you had forgotten me long ago…”
Feng Mu Chen lifted his hood, revealing a pale face.
“What happened to you…”
Lin Feng hesitated, unsure of what to say.
In his memory, Sixth Senior Brother was a sunny and handsome man…
But now, this face resembled that of a corpse, devoid of color and filled with a chilling aura.
“I know what you want to say; it’s normal. After all, I have died once. Even though Master reversed the yin and yang and forcibly reshaped my true form, I can never be like I was before.”
“Do you know why I am shrouded in this black robe? It’s because I fear the sunlight. You think I am alive, but in reality, I am just a living dead.”
Feng Mu Chen spoke in a series of raspy sentences, each one sending chills down Lin Feng’s spine.
Lin Feng fell silent.
He had imagined many scenarios of meeting Sixth Senior Brother again, but he never expected it to be like this…
Sixth Senior Brother held no resentment, no anger; all that remained was a cold, eerie calmness.
He was merely recounting an ordinary matter, yet his plain and hoarse words felt like a sharp knife, piercing deeply into Lin Feng’s heart.
“I’m sorry!”
Lin Feng suddenly said.
Feng Mu Chen’s eyes, devoid of any fluctuation, calmly stared at Lin Feng. After a long pause, he said:
“Junior Brother, you have changed!”
“People always change; they grow… No matter how irritable one’s heart is, with the passage of time, it will gradually cool down…”
Lin Feng paused and continued:
“It’s just a pity that some things, once done, can never be undone…”
Upon hearing this, a complex expression appeared on Feng Mu Chen’s pale face.
He too hadn’t expected their reunion to unfold in such a manner…
He had changed!
Lin Feng had changed!
Once, they had met too late; now, they were separated by a thousand mountains.
“Bang!”
Feng Mu Chen suddenly stepped forward and gave Lin Feng a hug.
Lin Feng’s body stiffened, feeling that Sixth Senior Brother’s body was like an ice cellar, devoid of any warmth…
He was about to speak when he saw Sixth Senior Brother take a step back and rasped:
“Tomorrow night, here again. Will you come with me to the West Coast?”
“West Coast? Are you going to deal with Third Senior Brother and West Senior Brother’s matters?” Lin Feng asked.
“Otherwise? What do you think I came to find you for? Master and Big Senior Brother are entangled with powerful foes, and Fifth Senior Brother is in a secret realm facing life and death… I can’t handle Mo Tian alone.”
Feng Mu Chen replied.
“That’s fine; we can leave now! In fact, even if you hadn’t called me, I was planning to go alone!” Lin Feng said in a deep voice.
“Things aren’t as simple as you think. Big Senior Brother instructed me to find reinforcements at Mount Tai! If all goes well, I will bring reinforcements tomorrow night!”
After Feng Mu Chen finished speaking, he turned and left.
Lin Feng watched Sixth Senior Brother’s departing figure, his thoughts swirling.
Sixth Senior Brother, does this count as burying the hatchet with a smile?
…
After a moment, Lin Feng quietly returned to his room in the Chen family estate and sat cross-legged to meditate.
Within the tomb, he not only comprehended the Saint’s Sword Intent and acquired the sword technique “One Sword Breaking the Sky,” but he also broke through to the mid-stage of the Out-of-Body Realm.
Now, what he needed to do was to integrate these gains and enhance his combat power!
After all, the Saint’s Sword Intent of the White Robe Sword Master and his own Killing Sword Intent were two entirely different sword intents that needed to be harmonized…
“Buzz~”
As time passed, a faint glow gradually appeared around Lin Feng’s Western Zhou.
Within the glow, two distinctly different sword intents intertwined…
The two sword intents merged and separated, ultimately transforming into two small swords…
One golden small sword,
One red small sword!
The two small swords refused to yield to each other, violently colliding before Lin Feng, as if each wanted to devour the other!
In the end, the red small sword prevailed, swallowing the golden small sword…
And at the moment the two small swords fused, a sharp aura swept out, causing everyone in the Chen family estate to feel a wave of panic, cold sweat breaking out on their foreheads, as if they had just walked through the gates of hell…
“What the hell is happening? I feel like my soul just left my body!”
“Yes! I felt that too; it was terrifying! For that instant, I thought I was going to die!”
“What happened? It was so sudden; I felt dizzy for a second…”
“Could it be that another powerful enemy is about to attack our Chen family?”
The members of the Chen family scanned the Western Zhou, their expressions horrified.
…
In the kitchen.
Little Lian Lian rested her chin on her hands, bored, watching Uncle Silly Dragon gnawing on a cabbage.
At that moment, both the person and the dragon suddenly looked up.
“Uncle Silly Dragon, did you sense that?”
Little Lian Lian asked.
“Such a strong sword intent, faintly showing signs of transformation. Could it be that Lin Feng has broken through?”
Silly Dragon’s eyes sparkled with excitement, and he immediately dropped the cabbage in his hand, vanishing from the spot.
“All the good cabbage is gone!”
Little Lian Lian pouted, picked up the cabbage from the ground, and planned to save it for Uncle Silly Dragon to eat next time.
…
In a luxurious room.
Chen Shan was chatting and laughing with the Yin Gathering Fairy.
It had been three days since Chen Shan brought the Yin Gathering Fairy home.
During these three days, although the Yin Gathering Fairy had not fully recovered from her injuries, she and Chen Shan had been chatting enthusiastically, as if they had met too late.
At that moment, Chen Shan suddenly froze, as if he had fallen into a daze.
Meanwhile, the Yin Gathering Fairy’s pupils constricted, her face pale, trembling in fear, thinking:
“What a terrifying sword intent! Could it be that Lin Feng has come after me?”
“Miss Caiyin, what’s wrong with you??”
Chen Shan, coming back to his senses, saw the Yin Gathering Fairy trembling in his embrace and hurriedly asked with concern.
“Plop~”
The Yin Gathering Fairy threw herself into Chen Shan’s arms, her delicate face already in tears, frightened as she said:
“Brother Shan, my enemies might come after me at any moment. You must protect me!”
Feeling the softness in his arms, Chen Shan couldn’t help but swallow hard.
Ever since he was tricked by that damned fake girl, he had resolved to give up on women.
But after spending these past few days together, he realized that his previous thoughts were completely wrong!
He was in his prime; how could he give up on normal physiological needs because of a fake girl?
Moreover, Miss Caiyin was so beautiful and gentle…
With this thought, Chen Shan couldn’t help but feel a surge of excitement, patting his chest and saying:
“Don’t worry! This is my territory; no matter who comes, they will only find death!”
“Brother Shan, you are so good to me!”
The Yin Gathering Fairy said gratefully.
“Why do you say that? If I don’t treat you well, who else can I treat well?”
Chen Shan deliberately said this to gauge the Yin Gathering Fairy’s reaction. When he saw that she showed no signs of resistance, he couldn’t help but feel a surge of joy!
There is hope!
