Chapter 1750: Chapter 939: Future (2)
After Liu Qian left the door, he said to Lin Feng: "You get on the carriage first, I have some instructions to give them." Liu Qian spoke with a very gentle tone, without any guile or scheme, Lin Feng nodded and got into the carriage.
Currently, Lin Feng only has the cultivation of the Four Spirits Seal. Aside from having a good physique, he truly doesn’t have much to counter the masters outside.
Lin Feng is also of pure heart, otherwise, he wouldn’t have been hit by that palm from Cangmu, as he didn’t make a move or attack the Sect Leader that night on Taoxuan Heavenly Sect Mountain.
At that time, Lin Feng merely focused on defense, and Cangmu, that wooden old fool, only understood Lin Feng to passively defend during their spar, mistakenly thinking that it was his own strength that pressured Lin Feng into submission. He had no idea that Lin Feng was deliberately letting him.
When Lin Feng got onto the carriage, he reached out and pulled the young girl up as well.
At this moment, a glimmer of alertness flashed in Feng Ling’s eyes before Liu Qian, thinking that Lin Feng had quickly started connecting with other women within just two days, which seemed excessively flirtatious.
She actually hadn’t realized that she was saying this because she had already begun to like Lin Feng, thus forcing herself to think this way.
Feng Ling glanced at Lin Feng, and by this time, Liu Qian had approached her.
Liu Qian came to the front of Feng Ling and the others, noticing the way Feng Ling was looking at Lin Feng, and thought to himself: "Strange, she has clearly lost her memory, how does she still have an intuition about Lin Feng?" At this moment, Feng Ling was concealed beneath a thin veil, and Lin Feng could recognize her with just a glance because he was very familiar with Feng Ling.
He didn’t say anything as he didn’t wish to expose her here, especially since Feng Ling was always helping Lin Feng.
Liu Qian said to Feng Ling and the others: "Protect Miss Su well. If anything goes amiss, I’ll be asking for your accountability."
This time, Feng Ling was pretending to be Su Liqian, who is the head disciple of the Phoenix Sect. Currently, she was acting as an amnesiac Su Liqian and therefore always pretended not to recognize Lin Feng.
The Sect Leader has issued her new missions and plans. This time, her task is to facilitate Lin Feng becoming the Alliance Hierarch. As for the next step and what kind of schemes might unfold inside, the Sect Leader hasn’t given her instructions yet, so Feng Ling said nothing more.
She looks identical to Su Liqian, even Lin Feng, the husband of Su Liqian, confuses them both. Lin Feng even thought Feng Ling was Su Liqian, but having stayed at Star Fall Mountain for so long, as he interacted, Lin Feng discovered Feng Ling had close ties with the people of Star Fall Mountain. If she were Feng Ling, it would be impossible, as Feng Ling would absolutely never collude with the Demon Sect. She nearly lost her life in a canyon before.
Given the above reasons, Lin Feng ruled out the possibility of her being Su Liqian.
Moreover, the last "Natural Heaven Stone Fire" incident was also disrupted by Su Liqian and Lin Feng and others together. If Feng Ling were Su Liqian, it wouldn’t make sense at all.
After Liu Qian finished giving instructions to his men, he climbed alone back onto the carriage.
Lin Feng saw his attire of splendid brocade, exceedingly refined and unique.
While at that moment, Lin Feng’s attire was very simple, compared to Liu Qian’s garb, it appeared somewhat inferior.
Actually, Lin Feng was wearing a treasure garment, whose high quality rendered it impervious to fire and it wouldn’t be soaked by water.
Yet, even such fine clothing could be torn by a master. Though the fabric quality was excellent, the design appeared rather ordinary.
Upon coming up, Liu Qian said to Lin Feng: "I apologize for keeping you waiting?" Liu Qian spoke with a smile across his face.
Witnessing his graceful demeanor, the young girl sat opposite Liu Qian, beside Lin Feng, feeling slightly tense.
In an effort to ease the tense situation, Liu Qian raised his hand to gesture: "Who is this?" During his inquiry, Liu Qian seemed to have already guessed three parts of it, but Lin Feng still explained: "This is my friend, her family entrusted her to me."
Liu Qian smiled, not probing too deeply as many things needn’t be explained too clearly once understood.
Seeing Liu Qian didn’t continue to ask him anything, Lin Feng remained silent, as Liu Qian felt somewhat awkward having touched on someone else’s privacy, realizing the other party was clinging too tightly to Lin Feng.
In truth, Lin Feng and the girl hadn’t experienced anything at all, yet how many people in the world would believe their claims?
First and foremost, Liu Qian wouldn’t believe it; if nothing happened, then why would a girl stick to you?
The carriage traveled over the vast interface, driven by a Wang Mansion coachman, who was also disguised as a top-notch master, otherwise, with the identity of Yunzhou’s Princely Heir, how could anyone be so assured to sit inside the carriage?
Bear in mind that in this world, those who long for his demise are countless.
"What happened last time when you fell off the cliff?" Liu Qian seemed to recall some things, inquiring of Lin Feng.
Observing Lin Feng’s cultivation seemingly at Four Spirits Seal, he felt rather astonished.
Lin Feng replied: "Last time, after being struck by the Sky Blue Divine Palm, I felt very unwell; veins had already ruptured but it was thanks to a high master’s healing that I recovered as before, though all my cultivation needs to be retrained."
Hearing Lin Feng speak like this, Liu Qian felt suddenly touched.
"How is that possible, it’s only been about a month. He’s already reached the level of Four Spirits Seal, it’s simply unbelievable."
Liu Qian merely thought this in his heart, refraining from his mouth.
At this time, his face only briefly froze, yet even such a small hesitation would be detected by an experienced person like Lin Feng.
Lin Feng sensed his doubt, thus before Liu Qian had the chance to speak, explained: "I am only recovering power, not re-practicing from the beginning, it would be impossible to achieve what takes others over ten years in just over twenty days."
Thus, Liu Qian’s heart felt somewhat relieved, knowing only very few are aware of Lin Feng possessing the Innate Spiritual Seed. The Sect Leader knows, Feng Ling knows, and surprisingly Luo Jingtian knows too. Though Lin Feng hadn’t previously met them, they seemingly investigated him thoroughly.
Liu Qian sighed with joy and told Lin Feng: "Well then, seeing you’re okay, I feel at ease."
Lin Feng asked Liu Qian: "What exactly do you intend to say to me, I’m a bit curious about whom you were referring to."
Liu Qian chuckled, "Actually, it’s a long story."
At this point, the coachman halted the carriage, and Liu Qian immediately switched topic explaining to Lin Feng: "It should have arrived, whatever we say outside, better discuss inside then."
Sure enough, the coachman removed the cloth covering, addressing those inside: "Young Master, we’ve arrived."
Liu Qian was quite delighted, hurriedly inviting Lin Feng and the girl down.
Alighting from the carriage, Lin Feng observed the bustling streets around, flanked by shops brimming with people and before them, stood a rather distinctive restaurant.
The Wilderness Pavilion could be regarded as a Biyao City feature, its dishes are all wild mountain fare.
These wild mountain delicacies are deemed meats of conquered Demon Beasts, like inferior-grade phoenixes and Northern Snow Chickens as Third Grade demon beasts.
There are also Snow Country swans and Jiuxiao Realm’s Heaven Mountain snow yaks. These snow yaks differ from those commonly consumed. Upon seeing esteemed guests, the innkeeper came immediately to welcome them.
Upon seeing Liu Qian, the innkeeper further nodded and bowed obsequiously: "Young Master, what wind brought you here, our place seems immensely honored by your presence."
Liu Qian, accustomed to such flattery, told the innkeeper: "Today, I need a superior private room, there’s silver aplenty for you."
The innkeeper hurriedly said to Liu Qian: "Why do you say so, I wouldn’t dare let you spend a penny, today’s expenses in this place rest on me."
