442: Soul Wind's plan

Hun Feng walked at the front, entering the main hall first. He paused briefly as he passed Medusa, Yao Ming, and the others who were trapped.

"Young Clan Leader Huang Tian, I like working with straightforward people like you."

A smile appeared on Hun Feng's face.

Previously, regarding the Purification Lotus Demon Flame, both Lord Void and the Clan Chief went out, but Lin Xiu left them in a disheveled state.

Not only did they fail to obtain the Purification Lotus Demon Flame, but the Clan Chief was also injured because of it.

This incident surprised many in the clan and also caused some anger.

Constantly being called Young Clan Leader, Hun Feng also felt he couldn't hold his head high. So, taking advantage of the Soul Clan's period of rest, he wanted to create some stir.

After much thought, he understood that even the Void Swallowing Flame couldn't handle Lin Xiu, so if he provoked him, it would be no different from courting death.

Therefore, Hun Feng decided to target those close to Lin Xiu.

First, he immediately ruled out the Northwest Region; that was the Cultivation Alliance's base, too risky.

After some inquiries, he found out that Medusa, who was associated with Lin Xiu, was Cultivating in the Nine Serene Yellow Springs.

Hun Feng didn't directly order his own people to act, but instead informed the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, who also held a grudge against Lin Xiu.

Currently, it seemed their animosity was indeed deep, as Huang Tian had actually completed his request so quickly, successfully capturing the person.

Stepping down from his seat, Huang Tian approached Hun Feng in a few strides, "Young Clan Leader, when do you plan to make a Move on Lin Xiu?"

"Of course, the sooner the better."

Hun Feng said without hesitation, a profound look on his face, "That guy's Cultivation speed is unusual; we can't give him too much time to grow."

"Good, Young Clan Leader, how do you need to prepare? I am willing to help."

Huang Tian was filled with anticipation.

Hun Feng's gaze fell on Medusa, "Then it depends on how important she is to Lin Xiu? I will first set up a trap and use her to lure Lin Xiu over."

"I advise you to give up on this idea. I am not Lin Xiu's woman; he won't risk his life for me."

Medusa retorted with great certainty.

"Whether it is or isn't, it's not for you to decide. Time will tell."

Hun Feng naturally wouldn't believe her one-sided words. According to what he knew, even Tang Zhen's daughter from Burning Flame Valley received a bodhi pill just because she had spent some time with Lin Xiu.

This alone was enough to show that Lin Xiu was a person who valued loyalty.

And his sending Medusa to Cultivate in the Nine Serene Yellow Springs certainly wasn't a whim.

"Young Clan Leader, ordinary traps might not be very effective against Lin Xiu; he has many tricks."

Huang Tian showed concern.

"You don't need to remind me; I've met him more than once or twice."

A dark expression appeared on Hun Feng's face, "Since we're doing this, I've surely considered all the details, even her..."

Hun Feng's gaze fell on Medusa, "My clan has unique methods that can ensure Lin Xiu won't detect any traces of her being replaced by someone from my clan. At that time, even if Lin Xiu can guard against the trap, can he guard against human hearts?"

Huang Tian's heart skipped a beat after hearing this.

To have one Soul replace another, unless they are exceptionally familiar with each other, or already aware of such a method, otherwise, it might truly be difficult to discover.

Moreover, if it truly succeeded, when Lin Xiu appeared, he would probably only think of saving her, with no time to distinguish the real from the fake.

Huang Tian gave him a thumbs up, "Young Clan Leader's methods are truly ingenious!"

A sinister smile curved on Hun Feng's lips.

"I won't let you succeed!"

Medusa's face changed drastically, her tone resolute.

"Hmph, that's not up to you."

Hun Feng gave her a cold glance, then turned to Huang Tian, "Without further ado, I'll take her back to the clan first. Clan Chief Huang Tian, just wait for my good news."

"Alright, but Young Clan Leader, please be quick. I'm worried the situation with the Nine Serene Deep Earth Python Clan won't be kept secret for too long."

Huang Tian reminded him tactfully.

This time, he had brought out all the elites from his clan and annihilated the Nine Serene Deep Earth Python Clan, so there was no need to worry about anyone transmitting messages.

However, the Nine Serene Deep Earth Python Clan had, after all, joined the Cultivation Alliance. If there was no activity for too long, it would inevitably arouse the Cultivation Alliance's suspicion.

Once someone from the Cultivation Alliance went to investigate, the situation of the Nine Serene Deep Earth Python Clan would no longer be a secret.

At present, there were only a few forces on the entire continent capable of acting against the Nine Serene Deep Earth Python Clan and not caring about the Cultivation Alliance.

Huang Tian had no doubt that he would be the first to be suspected.

"For now, the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan should avoid attention. Also, don't worry too much; Lin Xiu took the Purification Lotus Demon Flame earlier, so his thoughts might be focused on that recently."

Hun Feng actively extended his hand to Huang Tian, "May our cooperation be pleasant!"

A smile appeared in Huang Tian's eyes as he also extended his hand.

But at this moment, his peripheral vision suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure, his pupils abruptly constricted, and the smile on his face froze.

Hun Feng frowned, but then, in Huang Tian's eyes, he saw a figure behind him.

"Lin Xiu?!"

Hun Feng spun around sharply, seeing the figure's face. His palm immediately turned into a claw, and Dou Qi energy surged, enveloping Medusa's head. "How are you here? Don't come any closer! If you take another step, I'll kill her!"

Medusa was startled to see Hun Feng acting as if facing a formidable enemy. She belatedly turned her head, saw Lin Xiu's figure, and a look of surprise appeared on her face.

"Hun Feng, even your Soul Clan Chief has to tuck his tail between his legs, yet you still dare to show your face. That's quite something, your guts are bigger than your Clan Chief's."

Lin Xiu glanced at Medusa, who was covered by danger, and stopped his steps. "If you dare to harm even a single strand of her hair today, I guarantee that even Soul Emperor won't be able to save you."

"Do you think I was scared into growing up?"

Hun Feng sneered, a look of disdain on his face, "Since you've shown up, that's perfect. I don't want to waste time either. Next, if you dare to fight back, she'll get another injury. If you don't believe me, you can try. Anyway, before you kill me, I can definitely kill her first!"

His meaning was very clear now.

He was going to use Medusa to threaten Lin Xiu!

Originally, Huang Tian was completely panicked, at a loss, but now the scattered light in his eyes gradually gathered, condensing into a ruthless expression.

"Lin Xiu, when you killed the Three Heavenly Phoenixes, you never imagined this day, did you? I will avenge them!"

After exchanging glances with Hun Feng, Huang Tian walked towards Lin Xiu with a grim expression, his eyes filled with substantial killing intent, as if eager to pierce through Lin Xiu.

Swish!

A blur flashed, and Huang Tian directly arrived in front of Lin Xiu, his palm carrying powerful energy, striking down fiercely.

Lin Xiu's hair and robes were blown by the wind, but his eyes remained calm.

So slow!

Watching the opponent's Move, Lin Xiu subconsciously easily dodged it.

"Hmm?"

After his palm missed, Huang Tian was stunned for a moment, somewhat surprised.

"Don't dodge! And don't fight back!"

Hun Feng's five fingers tightened slightly, and a black flame constricted Medusa's neck, lifting her up.

Hun Feng looked at Lin Xiu in a show of force.

With a low shout, Huang Tian attacked Lin Xiu again. This time, he finally hit Lin Xiu's body, sending him directly to the ground.

A huge crater was indented in the earth.

Lin Xiu stood up from it, dusting off his clothes, without a single trace of injury.

"Demon Phoenix Avatar!"

Anger flashed in Huang Tian's eyes, and a giant Demonic Phoenix phantom appeared, enveloping him.

Wings spread.

The terrifying Demonic Phoenix, with extreme speed and astonishing impact, crashed towards Lin Xiu again.

"No wonder the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan can become one of the three top Demonic Beast races."

Hun Feng was attracted by that terrifying aura and exclaimed.

But he didn't notice that on Medusa's drooping wrist, a dazzling colorful glow was slowly emerging.

In the crater.

Lin Xiu suddenly turned his head, ignoring the Demonic Phoenix phantom that was getting closer to him.

His gaze was directed towards Medusa.
