Chapter 2495: The Whole City Can See...
"These are Shadow Stones recording the most secret affairs of your nine Prominent Families!"
Lin Feng looked at Lan Litang and tossed a handful of Shadow Stones onto the table. Lan Litang’s eyes widened immediately, not understanding what Lin Feng meant. He was still puzzled since all the nine Prominent Families had formations protecting them, making it impossible for outsiders to see inside. So, even if there were Shadow Stones, what could they do?
These Shadow Stones?
Where did they come from?
...
At this moment, Tao Tao and the others all froze, gazing at those Shadow Stones on the table, each inscribed with the names of different families. They were all confused, not knowing what Lin Feng was planning. What puzzled them even more was that they didn’t know when Power Energy did this.
Seeing everyone’s expressions, Lin Feng casually picked up a Shadow Stone with the Xue Family’s name from the pile and installed it in a large-looking box. Then he instructed Tangyuan, "Take this upstairs and let the entire Ling City enjoy this as well."
"Alright!" Tangyuan grinned as he heard the command. He turned around, jumped up with the large box, and flew out the window. He placed the box at the highest point of Looking Cloud Tower, flipping a handle on the box, which then began to change.
Watching Tangyuan take the box out, Lan Litang was still pondering what sort of influence Lin Feng would exert. But before he could think further, an unforgettable sound echoed outside...
As beams of light shot out from the box atop the tower, they formed large screens in mid-air, visible from every corner of the city. The content was unbelievably the secret affairs of the nine Prominent Families that should never be revealed!
And that wasn’t all; the box could even reproduce the sounds, recreating the original scenes, with all the voices restored...
The images and sounds left everyone stunned. Such outrageous matters had been recorded by Lin Feng’s Shadow Stones. If these images were released, all the prominent families would be disgraced. Sitting on the seventh floor, Lan Litang finally understood what was contained in those Shadow Stones. His face turned utterly pale, devoid of any color!
Which family doesn’t have such matters? One could say even he has many, but these must remain hidden. If exposed, the entire family would become the laughingstock of Ling City. The consequences are unbearable; to speak bluntly, without any intervention from others, the family ancestor would personally execute him!
Thinking of this, his heart began to pound wildly as he noticed a couple of Shadow Stones labeled with ’Lan Family’ among Lin Feng’s pile. He couldn’t avert his gaze; truth be told, he wanted to act, but lacked the courage. Though a Divine King himself, he didn’t believe Lin Feng would host this banquet without assurance. If he did act, he might immediately meet his demise here.
In an instant, he thought of many things before looking at Lin Feng. His eyes were filled with pleading as he spoke to Lin Feng, "Uh... Pavilion Master Lin... I... I..."
He couldn’t bring himself to say more, but Lin Feng understood his meaning. Smiling, he said to Lan Litang, "Family Head Lan, I invited all of you, yet only you came. How could I make things difficult for you? Take them."
After that, Lin Feng directly tossed the two Shadow Stones labeled ’Lan Family’ to Lan Litang, simultaneously raising his wine glass, signaling Lan Litang to drink.
Seeing the situation, Lan Litang naturally knew what to do. He immediately raised his glass and drank with Lin Feng, drinking each glass dry!
"Family Head Lan, you’ll be pleased with your decision tonight. I’m always one to repay kindness many times over. Those who’ve tried to bully me, it’s not like they don’t exist, but each one has been beneath my feet. Watch closely; the good show is just beginning."
Lin Feng said, smiling at Lan Litang, genuinely seeing that this Lan Litang was smart and lacked the arrogance typical of a family head. Sensing something from tonight’s posts and able to identify the issue and adjust, someone like that is bound to go further.
As for the other eight Prominent Families, they will probably regret this evening’s events bitterly!
"Yes, yes..." Hearing Lin Feng, Lan Litang broke out in cold sweat. Had he not come here, the scene displayed might have been his. If that were true, death would be preferable...
While they were talking, the entire city saw the scenes and heard the sounds; the Mei and Shi Families erupted immediately. Their ancestors appeared and executed the two people in the scenes before flying into the sky, disregarding Ling City’s no-flying regulation, determined to shut off the damn scenes quickly!
The other family heads in the city, seeing the scenes were coming from Looking Cloud Tower, thought of Gu Tianhai’s post at once. Their faces immediately grew ashen, disregarding city regulations, and flew desperately towards Looking Cloud Tower. They couldn’t allow their family’s sordid matters to be exposed. If that happened, they might never show their faces again.
Before long, the ancestors of the Mei and Shi Families arrived first, heading straight for the Shadow Stone on the rooftop. But before they could act, Tangyuan returned to the seventh floor, holding the box.
Helplessly, they entered the seventh floor, coldly glaring at Lin Feng seated there, while Tangyuan, holding the box, stood on Lin Feng’s shoulder, aware that this young man orchestrated the entire charade.
"To dare commit such acts against my Mei Family, it’s unforgivable. If I, the ancestor of the Mei Family, don’t flay you today, I am not worthy of my lineage!" The Mei Family Patriarch glared at Lin Feng, voice filled with murderous intent. He could never have imagined this young man before him would dare expose such things, shaming the Mei Family, turning them into a public joke—truly unforgivable!
"Young man, didn’t you consider the consequences of such actions? I intend to flay you as well!" The Ancestor of the Shi Family shouted coldly at Lin Feng. He was exploding with anger; whatever the circumstances, such exposure was intolerable. It wasn’t a mere loss of face; it disgraced the Shi Family. No matter what, he could not let this youth off!
Lin Feng looked at them both, smiling and shaking his head, saying, "Your tempers are indeed volatile. But since I’m daring enough to do it, do you think I fear you coming after me?"
The two ancestors immediately furrowed their brows upon hearing this, not understanding Lin Feng’s meaning. They started evaluating Lin Feng. Lin Feng was right; without assurance, he wouldn’t have done this. Could this young boy withstand their assault?
How could that be possible!
Seeing Lin Feng’s calm and composed demeanor, they didn’t believe he had any real preparation, considering his obvious youth. Despite his potential, at his age, how strong could he truly be? Both were Half-Step Divine Venerables, stuck for countless years—surely, this young boy couldn’t be a match. It was simply impossible!
With that in mind, they quickly made their move. The Mei Family Patriarch charged towards Lin Feng first without using any other techniques, just a single punch, fast as light, seemingly tearing through space, instantly at Lin Feng’s head!
The move was practically an ambush, too fast to react. Yet, Lin Feng showed no tension facing this attack. Just as their fist was about to land, he coldly snorted, "Get lost!"
Suddenly, one hand swung up, with an immensely large palm extending, directly slapping the Mei Family Patriarch away, sending him flying like a cannonball, crashing through a large hole in the seventh floor of Looking Cloud Tower!
At this moment, Lin Feng’s murderous intent was clear. Just as the other was about to fly out, a Divine Sense Confinement abruptly unfolded, as if the Mei Family Patriarch crashed into a bronze mountain and iron wall, knocking him out cold. Before anyone could react, Lin Feng swung his hand, summoning the Eternal Divine Flame, instantly wrapping the Mei Family Patriarch!
Under the Divine Sense Confinement, the Mei Family Patriarch couldn’t move, while Lin Feng manipulated the Eternal Divine Flame, transforming into countless fiery threads, penetrating the Patriarch’s body, starting to burn his flesh!
"Ah..."
Instantly, a miserable scream echoed from the Mei Family Patriarch, agonizing to the extreme, yet his entire body remained immobile. In this situation, the patriarch went wild, frantically trying to use his own Yuangang to purge the Eternal Divine Flame from his body!
But to his despair, the flame was too powerful, impossible to expel. Helpless, he could only endure the continuous burning, a self-immolating pain driving him to utter hopelessness, a torment no man could bear!
In utter despair, as he intended to self-destruct before being burnt to death, bizarrely, even that was unachievable. Within moments, the Eternal Divine Flame reduced him to nothing but ashes, showcasing its terrifying might!
The spectacle made the Ancestor of the Shi Family’s hair stand on end, cold sweat soaking his back. The six other family heads who just entered to confront Lin Feng broke into cold sweat, rendered speechless in the eerie silence...
