Chapter 564: Tang Shiya’s Plan
At this moment,
Tang Shiya felt a chill all over her body.
She knew she might not be a match for Ikegawa Jiro,
but she never expected the gap between them to be so vast!
After all, she was the top figure of the younger generation in the Ice Spirit Palace, yet she was no match for Ikegawa Jiro’s single move!
“I… I…”
Tang Shiya wanted to say something,
but Lin Feng’s grip was too strong, causing her throat to feel constricted, and she couldn’t utter a word.
At the same time,
Lin Feng was also contemplating whether to eliminate Tang Shiya.
He killed Tang Yun
because Tang Yun had been ungrateful in the Western Sea Secret Realm and recognized his identity tonight!
But Tang Shiya had no enmity with him…
If this had happened just before he descended the mountain, Lin Feng would have undoubtedly snapped Tang Shiya’s neck without hesitation,
because at that time, his philosophy was to rather let the world betray him than to leave any hidden dangers for himself!
But now,
after going through so much,
especially after absorbing the Saint Sword Dao of the White-Clad Sword Master,
his mindset had subtly changed.
For a swordsman, decisiveness in killing is crucial, but that doesn’t mean one should indiscriminately kill the innocent!
Thinking of this,
Lin Feng sighed in his heart and decided to let Tang Shiya go,
but just then,
a light and pleasant voice echoed throughout the venue.
“Isn’t your arrogance a bit excessive, sir?”
“Swish, swish, swish~”
The onlookers were taken aback,
as someone dared to meddle?
They immediately turned to look in the direction of the voice,
and upon seeing the newcomer, their gazes sharpened.
It was actually the Holy Maiden of Lingyun Pavilion, Li Xiaoke, who had come with her entourage!
In the Spirit Realm,
Lingyun Pavilion could be considered a top-tier force, far beyond the Ice Spirit Palace, which only had a few cultivators at the Integration Realm!
The key point was that
it was said that Lingyun Pavilion had a deep relationship with the Young Master of the Demon Heaven, and two of the maids by his side came from Lingyun Pavilion!
Lin Feng also watched as Li Xiaoke approached, but he did not speak.
“Give me some face for Lingyun Pavilion and let her go, how about that?”
Li Xiaoke stepped forward, her gaze fixed intently on Lin Feng.
Behind her,
the old guardian servant looked vigilant, ready to prevent Lin Feng from suddenly attacking.
Meanwhile, Su Yuqing, Tang Zitong, and Tang Ziyue, the three female disciples of the Ice Spirit Palace, wore expressions of tension and worry.
“Is your Lingyun Pavilion really that powerful?”
Lin Feng’s lips curled into a faint, elusive smile.
“Sir, you come from the Land of Wa, so you might not be familiar with our Lingyun Pavilion! We are not a force that just anyone can provoke! Moreover, if you are willing to let Tang Shiya go, I, Li Xiaoke, will owe you a favor, how about that?”
Li Xiaoke said slowly.
In truth, she was also quite nervous,
facing this legendary ruthless killer, the Headshot King, the pressure was immense!
Furthermore, on the way here, the old guardian servant had repeatedly warned her to be polite and never offend Ikegawa Jiro!
“A favor? In my eyes, you are just an ant that I could easily crush; what kind of favor could you offer? Do you know that even if the Young Master of the Demon Heaven were here, I wouldn’t take him seriously?”
“As for Lingyun Pavilion? It’s nothing but nonsense!”
Lin Feng sneered coldly.
As soon as these words were spoken,
the entire venue fell silent!
In the whole of Western Sea City, only this one person dared to speak such audacious words!
Li Xiaoke’s face turned pale, her hands clenched tightly, and she shifted her pleading gaze to the old guardian servant behind her, only to see him silently shake his head.
She understood the old servant’s meaning,
which was to tell her not to meddle!
But…
Looking at Tang Shiya, whose face was flushed and filled with despair, she felt a pang of reluctance in her heart.
When they were in the Spirit Realm,
Tang Shiya had a pretty good relationship with her,
and if she just turned around and left like this…
At this moment, Su Yuqing, Tang Zitong, and Tang Ziyue sensed something was wrong and hurriedly knelt on the ground, pleading with Li Xiaoke for help!
“You all get up quickly!”
Li Xiaoke hurriedly helped the three girls up,
then turned her gaze back to Lin Feng, mustering her courage, just as Lin Feng suddenly released Tang Shiya.
“You are still too immature! You can’t even manage yourself, how can you manage others?”
Lin Feng shook his head,
not waiting for Li Xiaoke to respond, he impatiently said:
“Alright! Hurry up and leave here; I want to rest!”
With that,
Lin Feng turned and returned to his room, closing the door behind him.
Li Xiaoke stared blankly at the closed door, somewhat unable to react!
What was going on?
The ruthless Wa thief suddenly softened?
And what did that last sentence mean?
Was he lecturing her?
After pondering without any conclusion, Li Xiaoke simply stopped thinking about it, hurriedly helped Tang Shiya up, and left the hotel with the other girls.
Just as the crowd of onlookers was about to disperse,
Xiao Zeliya, Lu Yaxi, and An Xie, three powerful figures, emerged from the shadows…
“Xiao Zeliya, I can now confirm that this Ikegawa Jiro has issues! When can you find out what’s going on over there?”
Lu Yaxi asked with a gloomy expression.
“The Ikegawa family is involved in the highest secrets of the Yamato Divine Clan, so the investigation is quite troublesome. However, I have already urged them; it will take at most three days!”
“Three days just happens to be the day of the Demon Tower trial! By then, the true origins of this person will be clear! If he really dares to impersonate our Yamato Divine Clan, then three days later will be his death date!”
Xiao Zeliya said with a face full of resentment.
…
On the other side,
Li Xiaoke and Tang Shiya’s group also returned to their residence.
“Xiaoke, thank you for saving me! If it weren’t for you, I would probably have become a corpse by now!”
Tang Shiya said gratefully.
Li Xiaoke hesitated for a moment before replying:
“Actually… it shouldn’t have much to do with me! That Ikegawa Jiro likely never intended to kill you from the start!”
“Impossible! How could someone as malicious as Ikegawa Jiro let me go? He would love nothing more than to turn me into ashes!”
“Xiaoke, you must be careful of this person; he showed you a lot of concern in his words just now, which might mean he has taken a liking to you! He let me go, probably to use this opportunity to get close to you and seize your flawless pure Yin essence to enhance his own cultivation!”
Tang Shiya said seriously.
“That shouldn’t be the case…”
Li Xiaoke pretended not to believe it, but her heart was already filled with fear.
If what Tang Shiya said was true, then she was in danger!
Sigh!
If only Brother Lin were here!
Brother Lin hated Wa thieves the most in his life,
if he were here,
he would definitely turn this Wa thief into a blood mist,
Li Xiaoke’s mind conjured Lin Feng’s figure, feeling a sense of loss.
“Isn’t it simple? As long as that Ikegawa Jiro comes to find you tomorrow, it proves that what I said is true!”
Tang Shiya sneered.
Li Xiaoke remained silent upon hearing this.
After a pause, she said:
“Regardless of anything, this person is not someone we can offend right now; we should try to keep a low profile and avoid trouble!”
“Although we can’t provoke him, there are those who can speak for us! I will never swallow this anger!”
“Who?”
“The Murong family!”
Tang Shiya sneered.
Ikegawa Jiro not only killed her junior sister Tang Yun but also openly toyed with her in front of so many people; how could she let it go so easily?
“The Murong family? Are you talking about the ancient Murong clan from back then?”
At this moment, Li Xiaoke’s guardian servant suddenly exclaimed.
“That’s right! It’s the Murong clan! After the ancient calamity, the Murong family maintained a close relationship with the Divine Clan, so their strength has been preserved, and their clan land is now on the western coast!”
“My master was once a close friend of an ancient ancestor of the Murong family; as long as I mention my master’s name, the Murong family will definitely help me!”
Tang Shiya said in a flurry.
Hearing this,
Li Xiaoke couldn’t help but look at the guardian servant and ask, “Is the Murong family really that powerful?”
“Such a family is not just powerful; it’s far more than that!”
“Let me give you a simple example. In ancient times, there was a prodigy who called himself the White-Clad Sword Master, and his ultimate skill ‘One Sword Breaks the Sky’ was considered invincible. He could fight above his level and remain undefeated even at the Great Ascension stage! But in the end, he was taken down by the Murong family…”
“So if the Murong family is willing to intervene, I can assure you that no one will be able to save Ikegawa Jiro, not even the Yamato Divine Clan behind him would dare to oppose the Murong family for a junior!”
The guardian servant said solemnly.
