Chapter 1053 - 1051: Eight Miles…
Seeing Lin Feng roasting wolf meat again, Xia Lalan could no longer refuse; she picked up the roasted wolf meat in her hands, its fragrance overwhelming, and she couldn’t help but take a bite. That one bite completely stunned her!
How could this be possible!
Tasting the roasted wolf meat in her mouth, Xia Lalan wore a dazed expression, truly at a loss for words because the flavor had exceeded her imagination. She had never thought that roasted wolf meat could taste so delicious—it was utterly inconceivable!
It’s so delicious, so delicious!
Now, the only thought in Xia Lalan’s mind was how delicious it was. Forgetting all about her image, she picked up the roasted wolf meat and started to eat it quickly. Already physically spent, she found the more she ate, the tastier and more joyful it became. Looking over at Lin Feng in the distance, warmth flooded her heart, and she couldn’t help but feel grateful internally—having Lin Feng around was truly wonderful...
Just as Xia Lalan was enjoying her meal, she suddenly heard Lin Feng seemingly talking to himself, which made her pause in confusion. Who was Lin Feng talking to? She couldn’t see anyone around. What was going on?
"Don’t be afraid, the weak spot is in the eyes, attack the eyes!"
"Move away, step back a meter, attack from the side!"
"Be careful, don’t face the Demon Beasts head-on, others coordinate."
"Yes, just like that..."
...
Lin Feng was completely ignoring Xia Lalan, speaking to himself as if he were commanding something, which made Xia Lalan even more puzzled. There weren’t any children here, so whom was Lin Feng directing? If it weren’t for her understanding of Lin Feng, she would have thought he was talking nonsense...
"Not bad, well done, bring back the Demon Beasts. Come to eight li behind you, I’ll roast meat for you here." After saying this, Lin Feng stopped talking and focused on roasting the wolf meat. Xia Jianping and the others had encountered a bit of trouble, but it seemed there were no more problems now.
"Lin Feng, you... were you just directing the children?"
Speaking unintentionally but listening intentionally, Xia Lalan stared at Lin Feng, stuttering her question, hardly able to believe her ears. Commanding and remotely controlling children at a distance of eight li—how could Lin Feng possibly perform such an unbelievable feat? Only those in the Infinitesimal Realm, who possess Divine Sense, could manage it, but their range extended only two or three li at most, and here Lin Feng was, achieving eight li with just his words—this...this couldn’t be real, this couldn’t be real...
"Yes, Xia Jianping and the others encountered a Demon Beast, there was a little trouble, so I gave them a few pointers, and they will be over shortly." Lin Feng, unfazed by Xia Lalan’s words, casually responded before continuing with his roasting.
"How... how is this possible, how could you possibly do this, even my grandfather can’t do it..."
Watching Lin Feng carrying on so nonchalantly, Xia Lalan felt as if she had seen a ghost, no longer able to contain her thoughts. She was genuinely surprised at the outcome, unable to believe even Lin Feng’s own words. She had previously speculated that Lin Feng might be an expert in the Infinitesimal Realm, capable of observing these children with Divine Sense, and she found that aspect unremarkable. But to say that Lin Feng could directly control children from eight li away—that outcome was not something she or anyone could believe!
It was eight li, not just two or three, even her grandfather’s Divine Sense didn’t have such a range. Watching the carefree Lin Feng left her utterly speechless; she just couldn’t comprehend how he managed it, it was truly unthinkable. In the Hidden World, only the ancient elders of the Prominent Families had Divine Sense extending beyond five li, yet Lin Feng had surpassed eight li—this... this was no mere human...
Now she finally understood why Lin Feng had always been so composed; it wasn’t that he wasn’t taking care of the children, but that he had always been controlling the situation with this shockingly prodigious method, even precisely controlling every person’s actions. For others this was unfathomable, but Lin Feng could do it effortlessly, so Xia Jianping and the children were able to grow so rapidly. Such feats could only be accomplished by Lin Feng; she couldn’t possibly emulate them.
For a moment, Xia Lalan was totally dumbfounded, not because she wanted to be, but because Lin Feng had shocked her senseless. She had never imagined that Lin Feng was such a miraculous freak, not even remotely human. It was no exaggeration to say, even the super-geniuses from the Hidden World couldn’t compare to Lin Feng; how could someone who grew up in the Secular World possibly surpass those from the Hidden World, it was utterly demoralizing...
Lin Feng also noticed Xia Lalan’s astounded expression, smiled faintly without saying anything, and continued leisurely roasting wolf meat. Some things didn’t need to be elaborated upon; understanding was sufficient.
Xia Lalan was in a daze, while Lin Feng leisurely roasted wolf meat, looking unusually calm and harmonious.
"Teacher Lin, we’re back, hahaha, there’s roasted meat to eat!"
A voice came from the forest, shattering the original tranquility. It was Xia Jianping speaking; he had brought his companions back carrying the corpse of a Demon Beast. From afar, they smelled the aroma of Teacher Lin’s roasted meat, which made him and the other children extremely happy.
As soon as the voice passed, Xia Jianping and a few children appeared in front of Lin Feng and Xia Lalan carrying a not-so-large Demon Beast. However, they suddenly froze because they all saw two white bandages on Xia Lalan’s body; without a doubt, she was injured. The children became tense at once, carelessly throwing the Demon Beast’s corpse onto the ground and rushing to Xia Lalan’s side.
"Teacher Lanlan!"
"Teacher Lanlan, why are you here?"
"Teacher Lanlan, are you injured?"
...
Xia Jianping and the others were very nervous and asked with great concern. Although they were now following Lin Feng, their affection for Xia Lalan was still very strong; after all, Xia Lalan had taken care of them for a long time. Seeing Xia Lalan suddenly appearing here, seemingly injured, how could they not be concerned?
"I’m already fine, don’t worry." Xia Lalan, seeing how concerned Xia Jianping and the others were, felt warm inside and managed a smile, enduring the pain. Seeing that these children were unharmed, she felt reassured.
However, her gaze turned towards Lin Feng, still focused on roasting meat, and she couldn’t help but feel curious. What kind of experiences could have given Lin Feng such terrifying strength? She truly was baffled. Nevertheless, with Lin Feng leading Xia Jianping and the children, she no longer had to worry. With Lin Feng’s strength, no matter what situations Xia Jianping and the others encountered, they would be safe.
Thinking this, a bitter smile appeared on her face. Who could have imagined a person from the Secular World like Lin Feng could possess such exaggerated strength? Compared to Lin Feng, even she, without any issues, was far inferior. This filled Xia Lalan’s heart with bitterness. If possible, she would have liked to train along with Lin Feng.
Seeing that Xia Lalan was alright, Xia Jianping and the others relaxed, leaving her side to handle the Demon Beast’s corpse. Before long, the corpse was butchered, waiting for Lin Feng to roast the meat. Meanwhile, Lin Feng continued roasting, mumbling some disjointed words. Xia Lalan understood, Xia Jianping and the others understood; Lin Feng was instructing those children...
Unknowingly, the sky had darkened, and Xia Jianping and his friends had eaten their fill, all invigorated. Seeing that it was about time, Lin Feng instructed the children to go hunt Demon Beasts in the forest again. Hearing Lin Feng’s arrangement, Xia Jianping and a few children excitedly picked up their weapons and vanished into the night.
"I’ll take you back." Seeing that the children had left, Lin Feng walked over to Xia Lalan, suddenly lifting her into his arms and casually said. Xia Lalan’s external injuries had been treated, but her internal injuries needed attention back home. Now that she had rested enough, it was time to return.
"Alright..." In Lin Feng’s arms, Xia Lalan could only respond with a bitter smile. She was still unable to move; any movement caused her tremendous pain, so she could only let Lin Feng carry her away.
Lin Feng didn’t say anything else and began to leave. However, just as Lin Feng was about to leave, Xia Lalan suddenly remembered something. What about those children if she and Lin Feng left? If something happened to them during their absence, she wouldn’t be able to explain it to her family.
"Lin Feng, we’re leaving, but what about the children? Let’s take the children back with us." Xia Lalan looked at Lin Feng, speaking very seriously. She didn’t want any accidents happening to the children. If there was an issue, she would rather not go back and just stay here.
"Don’t worry, I’m the same anywhere. They won’t run into any trouble." Lin Feng heard Xia Lalan say this, nodded his head, and casually replied. He could feel how genuinely worried Xia Lalan was about the children, but this was no issue for him. Even if he were at the Xia Family, these children would come to no harm.
"Ah... how is that possible, the Xia Family is dozens of miles from here, you..." Hearing Lin Feng’s words, Xia Lalan was suddenly stunned, staring at Lin Feng incredulously, hardly believing her ears. The Xia Family was dozens of miles away—how could Lin Feng possibly manage that!
She had been shocked before when Lin Feng mentioned that his Divine Sense could monitor children up to eight miles away. But now Lin Feng was saying he could monitor those children from the Xia Family—that would mean Lin Feng’s Divine Sense could control and communicate across dozens of miles, which was terrifyingly unbelievable, unimaginably so, even for legendary Immortals. No one could believe such words!
It wasn’t that she didn’t believe what Lin Feng said, but simply that no one could believe it. If anyone else heard Lin Feng say this, they would surely think Lin Feng was a madman, and only a madman could utter such madness.
