Jing Feng originally didn't want to embroil Yang Wei into her troubles and revenge.
Hence, she had purposely asked him not to intervene in this matter.
Alas, never did she expect the people from the Red Submerge Army would contact her when Yang Wei was present.
"If you don't want to tell me about it, then I don't mind stepping out for a moment." Yang Wei suggested.
He then tried to turn around and leave the room, giving her some privacy.
However, Jing Feng quickly held onto his wrist and showed a gentle smile.
"It's fine, Yang Wei." She said calmly.
"Originally, I didn't want to let you see me trying to take revenge… mostly because I would turn into someone extremely ruthless and malicious."
"Jing Feng-"
"Alright, no need to waste any more time. Just finish up the lunch while I communicate with my subordinate." Jing Feng smiled and dragged him to his seat.
Yang Wei nodded his head.
Being a gentleman, he remained silent and calmly ate his lunch whereas Jing Feng retrieved her communication token.
"Why did you contact me this quickly, Cui Liu?" Jing Feng asked.
Cui Liu was a commander in the Red Submerge Army, specializing in intelligence gathering and inputting spies on other clans.
She was a trusted subordinate of Jing Feng, and it was because of this that Jing Feng wasn't really angry by her sudden call.
"Leader, we have uncovered some of Yi Renshu's tracks." Cui Liu's voice resounded from the communication token.
"Heh, that bastard Yi Renshu finally left some tracks huh. Throughout these years, he was like a mist, disappearing and reappearing occasionally."
"Indeed, luckily we managed to catch a glimpse of him and finally obtained some valuable information. Apparently, Yi Renshu had collided with the Dark Soul Clan and was able to improve his cultivation base with their help."
BAM!
Out of rage, Jing Feng accidentally slammed the table down with her spiritual qi. That palm of hers managed to destroy the entire lunch, and some of the food was splattered onto Yang Wei's face.
Yang Wei hadn't expected this kind of situation to happen so he was slow to react.
Meanwhile, Jing Feng held an awkward expression once she realized what she had done.
"Umm, are you okay?" She asked nervously.
Yang Wei nodded his head while using a handkerchief to wipe off the food on his face.
"I'm alright, but more importantly, what is the Dark Soul Clan that was able to cause you to lose your composure?" Yang Wei asked.
Jing Feng took a deep breath before sighing aloud.
"Dark Soul Clan- they are practically the enemy of every clan available in the Central Zone. They are akin to demonic cultivators but worse because they will devour the souls they captured and ruin their reincarnation cycle forever." Jing Feng explained.
"So it's another clan that indulges themselves in evil… typical."
"When you word it like that, it really doesn't seem that surprising."
Yang Wei shrugged his shoulders.
"I'm just being real here. Honestly, I'm getting bored of these typical evil cultivators that are scattered everywhere I go." Yang Wei said in disdain.
"And this is why I love you, Yang Wei." Jing Feng giggled softly.
"Ahem, Leader, I just want to inform you that I'm still here…" Cui Liu suddenly coughed, reminding them that she was still present.
Both Yang Wei and Jing Feng held an embarrassed look when they forgot about her.
"Cui Liu, just write a report and make sure to gather as much intel as you can regarding Yi Renshu. Now that he is affiliated with the Dark Soul Clan, I'm going to make sure he will regret what he did to me." Jing Feng showed a ruthless smile as she can't wait to achieve her revenge.
A revenge that she had waited for far too long.
Sometime later, Jing Feng closed the communication token and asked Yang Wei to go train his cultivation technique.
"Alright, I'll leave you alone then." Yang Wei said as he stood up and gave her a light peck on the lips.
Before leaving though, he made sure to tell her to be careful and not make any rash action.
Jing Feng watched as Yang Wei left the room.
Once his presence could no longer be sensed, her gentleness and calm demeanor vanished. Replacing it was a cold and aloof Jing Feng that seemed to be detached from the rest of the world.
With a flick of her finger, Jing Feng drew a formation midair and gazed at it solemnly.
"Yi Clan, you shouldn't have provoked me." Jing Feng sneered coldly.
She stood up and retrieved a teleportation rune from her storage ring.
Infusing the storage ring with some of her spiritual qi, Jing Feng teleported away from the Kong Clan.
After a while, Jing Feng reappeared at what seemed like an underground passage meant for rogues or wanted fugitives.
The underground passage was filled with swamp waters and dirty trash was laid everywhere. It was dark and hard to see the passage.
However, Jing Feng ignored all of those as she glanced at the far right corner.
Her gaze seemed to pierced through everything as she revealed the medallion token.
"I'm Jing Feng, so you can all stop hiding and acting cautiously." She shouted aloud.
Alas, there was still no response and only the dripping sound of the swamp water could be heard.
Seeing this, Jing Feng sighed softly as she couldn't blame them. She had been away for far too long and those people were definitely cautious of her sudden appearance.
'These people, sometimes I really want to smack them for their low intelligence.' Jing Feng cursed silently.
Taking a step forward, she activated the medallion token and it began to shine brightly, illuminating the dark underground passage.
"Feng as in Phoenix have called upon thee." Jing Feng started chanting.
Soon, people from every corner start to appear as they quickly knelt down in front of Jing Feng.
"Welcome back, Leader!"
