42: Chapter 42 This is aimed at me.
"My name is Wang Ao!"
After Wang Ao finished his introduction, he immediately gave Lin Feng a deep look.
Deep within his pupils, a flicker of intense ruthlessness flashed and vanished.
To be in the same team as Lin Feng this time, Wang Ao could be said to have gone through great pains.
First, he bribed Guard Lu Fang with a large sum of money.
Then he had Guard Lu Fang go find Monster Suppressing Guard Li Bo.
Finally, he had Monster Suppressing Guard Li Bo find Senior Sister Su Qingya's group.
His goal was to kill Lin Feng during the mission to avenge his father, Hall Master Wang Biao!
As for Du Xing, he was the helper he had brought along!
Back at the Fengyun Martial Arts Hall, he and Du Xing had a very good relationship.
Moreover, both he and Du Xing were in the Middle Stage of the Spirit Gathering Realm!
With two Spirit Gathering Realm Middle Stage experts joining forces, could they not handle a mere Lin Feng?
...
Before long, Monster Suppressing Guard Li Bo returned with a wooden plaque in his hand!
The words "Nanlin Village" were carved on it.
This was the destination their team was about to head to.
"Everyone, there's no time to lose, let's set off now!" Monster Suppressing Guard Li Bo called out, leading his team as they took the lead in walking out of the city.
Soon, team after team left Qingyun County one after another, heading toward their respective villages.
Nanlin Village was very far from Qingyun County, a village hidden deep within the mountain forests.
It took Lin Feng and the others a full two hours to successfully reach their destination.
By this time, the sky was near dusk.
Wisps of blue smoke rose from the village ahead.
Although this village was poor and the commoners lived in low adobe houses,
the environment was nice, with mountains, water, and crisscrossing paths between the fields.
From time to time, the sounds of children's laughter drifted out from the village.
The entire Nanlin Village was surrounded by mountains on three sides.
There was only one entrance!
Not far from the entrance was a surging river flowing eastward.
"Everyone, let's take a temporary rest by the river!" Monster Suppressing Guard Li Bo ordered.
Once Lin Feng and the others had all found places to sit down,
Monster Suppressing Guard Li Bo continued, "According to information received by our Demon Suppression Bureau, this Nanlin Village is also one of the targets of the demon attacks!
Although we don't know when they will come, we must remain vigilant at all times and not lower our guard."
At this point, he paused slightly and continued, "Before that, I must give you a detailed introduction to the situation in Nanlin Village.
Nanlin Village has over sixty households with a population of four hundred and thirty-seven people. Most are the elderly, weak, women, and children. it is considered a large village!
Fortunately, Nanlin Village's geographical location is excellent—easy to defend and hard to attack.
So if the demons attack later, you just need to join me in holding the entrance.
Under no circumstances must we let the demons enter the village."
"Understood!" Everyone nodded one after another.
"Take a good rest and build up your strength before the demons attack!" After Monster Suppressing Guard Li Bo finished speaking, he leaned against a large tree by the river and closed his eyes to rest.
"Junior Brother Lin, I brought some pastries. Do you want some?" At this time, Senior Sister Su Qingya took out a box of pastries from her Storage Pouch and handed it to Lin Feng beside her!
"Thank you, Senior Sister!" Lin Feng took one and took a bite!
It was quite delicious.
"Sixth Junior Sister, you can't be biased!" Senior Sister Li Mei said with a smile.
"Okay, Second Senior Sister, you have some too!" Senior Sister Su Qingya handed her a piece!
Seeing Senior Brother Li Qiang and Wang Feng looking over expectantly, Senior Sister Su Qingya simply handed the box to Senior Brother Li Qiang, "There are a few pieces left, you two share them!"
"Thank you, Senior Sister Su!" The two thanked her and happily accepted.
"Junior Brother Lin, can you tell Senior Sister how you Cultivate so fast?" Just then, Senior Sister Li Mei suddenly leaned close to Lin Feng and asked in a low voice!
A strange, orchid-like fragrance immediately wafted toward him.
Looking at this beautiful face so close at hand, Lin Feng quickly took a deep breath and murmured, "Hard work in Cultivation!"
"Like I'd believe that!" Hearing this, Senior Sister Li Mei couldn't help but secretly roll her eyes and lightly tapped Lin Feng's forehead with her delicate finger.
Seeing Senior Sister Li Mei and Lin Feng acting so intimately, Senior Brother Li Qiang and Wang Feng were both incredibly envious.
One must know that Senior Sister Li Mei was one of the goddesses of the martial arts hall.
Ordinarily, she was serious and very proud!
Even Senior Brother Niu Ben was one of her 'simps'.
They didn't expect her to be so relaxed in front of Lin Feng.
The two were chatting and laughing as if they were old friends of many years.
Just then, Senior Sister Su Qingya also leaned in closer and asked in a low voice, "Junior Brother Lin, are you hiding some secret?"
Hearing her words, Senior Sister Li Mei immediately perked up her ears and listened intently.
She was also very curious about what secret Lin Feng was hiding.
"Uh... what secret could there be? It's just that I work harder than others!" Lin Feng quickly replied upon hearing this.
"Hmph, fine, don't tell us then!" Senior Sister Su Qingya feigned displeasure and pouted her small mouth!
Seeing this scene, Senior Brother Li Qiang and Wang Feng's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
They didn't expect the usually ice-cold goddess to have such a side.
...
While Lin Feng was talking with the two women,
Wang Ao and Du Xing were also looking over from a distance.
"Hmph, that Lin Feng certainly has a way with women!" Du Xing snorted with envy and jealousy.
"Isn't it just because he was born with a good face?" Wang Ao smiled coldly and whispered, "Unfortunately, having met the two of us this time, he is destined not to see tomorrow's sun!"
"Then Brother Wang, when do we strike?" Du Xing asked.
"Don't be impatient. Wait until the demons arrive. When things get chaotic, we'll have plenty of chances to strike!" Wang Ao replied through gritted teeth.
"Brother Wang, don't forget the conditions you promised me," Du Xing reminded him!
"Don't worry, as long as you help me take out Lin Feng this time, I'll help you redeem Xiao Juan from the Hundred Flowers Pavilion," Wang Ao replied.
"Haha, good!" Du Xing laughed aloud.
Xiao Juan was from the same village as him; the two could be considered childhood sweethearts!
Unfortunately, because her family was poor, she was sold to the Hundred Flowers Pavilion by her parents a while ago.
Du Xing's family wasn't wealthy either, so he couldn't afford to redeem her.
Wang Ao had seized upon this point to persuade Du Xing
to help deal with Lin Feng together.
Little did he know that because of this matter involving his loins, he would end up losing his life here.
...
"Junior Brother Lin, come over here for a moment!" Senior Brother Li Qiang suddenly beckoned to Lin Feng!
Hearing this, Lin Feng quickly got up and went to Senior Brother Li Qiang.
"What is it, Senior Brother?"
"Junior Brother Lin, do you have a grudge against those two?" Senior Brother Li Qiang glanced at Wang Ao and Du Xing and asked in a low voice!
"No, I don't even know them!" Lin Feng shook his head and replied truthfully.
"Since there's no grudge, why do I see the way they look at you is very wrong? It's as if you have a blood feud with them," Senior Brother Li Qiang said, puzzled.
"Is that so?" Lin Feng was startled and quickly looked toward Wang Ao and Du Xing!
As expected!
He saw Wang Ao with eyes wide open, his gaze like it was dipped in poison, staring fixedly at him!
If looks could kill, he would have probably died tens of thousands of times already.
Lin Feng withdrew his gaze and looked at Senior Brother Li Qiang, asking, "Senior Brother, do you know those two?"
Senior Brother Li Qiang thought for a moment and hummed in affirmation. "Of those two, I know more about Wang Ao. It's said he's a Prodigy with Superior Root.
It's just that his background isn't great; his father, Wang Biao, was a Gang member..."
"What did you say?" Lin Feng was stunned and suddenly grabbed Senior Brother Li Qiang's arm. "You said his father is Wang Biao?"
"Yes, he is. Why?" Senior Brother Li Qiang asked curiously, not knowing why Lin Feng had such a strong reaction.
"It's nothing." Lin Feng shook his head!
At this moment, everything became clear to him.
He finally understood why two Disciples of the Fengyun Martial Arts Hall would take the initiative to join their group!
They were coming for him.
