Chapter 578: It’s Me (Tenth More Burst for Monthly Tickets)
"Brother Lin..." Leng Hao heard Yuan Kun’s plea, and although he harbored immense hatred for this senior brother, seeing him in such a state had allowed Leng Hao to release his pent-up anger. Now, Leng Hao didn’t know how to handle the situation, so he turned back to ask Lin Feng, hoping Lin Feng would provide a solution.
"One word, kill!" Lin Feng’s expression turned cold, and with an unhesitant flick of his finger, he spoke, "For someone like Yuan Kun, only death will prevent future troubles. Otherwise, it would be like releasing a tiger back into the wild—the danger of nurturing a bigger threat. This time, with my help, Leng Hao was able to defeat Yuan Kun. If we miss this chance, Yuan Kun will surely seek to assassinate Leng Hao in the future, and with his crafty nature, not just Leng Hao, but even the entire Leng Family could be in peril. How can we let such a menace live!"
"But... but he is still my senior brother after all..." Leng Hao had not expected Lin Feng to want to kill Yuan Kun, but he still had that sliver of martial arts sect brotherhood in him. Unless it was absolutely necessary, he didn’t want Yuan Kun to die...
"If you let him go today, he will become a Venomous Snake lying in wait. Then, you—and perhaps even your entire Leng Family—might face danger. Are you sure you still want to let him live? If he comes for you next time, will you still be able to defeat him? What if he targets your sister?" Lin Feng, knowing Leng Hao to be a good and upright young man with too little worldly experience, which sometimes could harm him, did not mince words and directly pointed out the potential threat to Leng Hao, believing that Leng Hao would make a choice.
"Yuan Kun, you brought this upon yourself!" Shocked awake by Lin Feng’s words, that’s right, how could he forget that Yuan Kun was such a cunning lowlife? It was only with the help of that mysterious voice that he had been able to defeat Yuan Kun. If he let Yuan Kun go now, once Yuan Kun recovered, he would surely come back for revenge, even putting his sister and the whole Leng Family at risk. How could Leng Hao allow such a thing to happen, how could he put the entire Leng Family in jeopardy out of misguided mercy!
With that in mind, Leng Hao roared at Yuan Kun, taking heavy steps, his aura filled with killing intent as he moved toward Yuan Kun. If that’s how it was, then so be it; to protect his sister and ensure the safety of the whole Leng Family, Yuan Kun had to die!
"No... I am your senior brother! You can’t... can’t kill me!" Yuan Kun, hearing Leng Hao call him by his name rather than ’senior brother,’ felt his heart turn cold. Now surely Leng Hao harbored the intent to kill him, otherwise Leng Hao would not have directly addressed him by name. Yuan Kun truly didn’t want to die like this, so despite the excruciating pain throughout his body, he pleaded one last time. Although the hope was slim, it was better than none.
"My senior brother died long ago; now, you’re nothing more than the cunning lowlife Yuan Kun, that’s all! Die!" Leng Hao said coldly as he reached Yuan Kun’s side. Then, concentrating all his strength into his fist, he threw a punch as fierce as a tiger descending a mountain. With a roaring sound and a momentum of utter destruction, his lightning-fast punch struck the defenseless Yuan Kun right in the chest!
"Bang! Crack!"
Leng Hao’s punch was incredibly forceful, directly shattering Yuan Kun’s breastbone and making a huge cavity in his chest, instantly cutting off Yuan Kun’s life force. Following that thunderous punch, Yuan Kun couldn’t even make a sound before he was dead...
"Let’s go, don’t dwell on it. When dealing with someone who wants to kill you, there’s no need for pleasantries," Lin Feng said, patting the still-dazed Leng Hao, signaling him to leave the villa with him. Lin Feng was well aware of what Leng Hao was going through; if nothing else, this was surely Leng Hao’s first time killing someone, and his stunned reaction was only natural.
Leng Hao said nothing and followed Lin Feng out of the villa, but his mind was a tumultuous sea. Part of it was due to killing for the first time, and part was because he had started to realize something...
......
After both men got into the car, Leng Hao could no longer control the thoughts swirling in his mind, and his eyes were fixed intently on Lin Feng.
"Brother Lin, the person who helped me defeat Feng Qi last time at the banquet, was it you? And this time, the one who helped me overcome Yuan Kun, was it also you?" Leng Hao had been pondering a question all this time. That strange voice had appeared twice, always in his most perilous moments. During the fight, he had no time to think about anything else, but now that things had settled, Leng Hao began to realize what had just occurred.
Such incidents had happened twice, and both times Lin Feng was present!
And that voice really did sound like Lin Feng’s!
With these two points, and the fact that an AA-level peak expert couldn’t even land a hand on Lin Feng before, it basically confirmed one thing—the voice that appeared in his mind must be Lin Feng’s voice, otherwise, there really was no one else capable of achieving such an inconceivable feat.
Thinking of this, Leng Hao couldn’t help but ask Lin Feng, because if he didn’t clarify who the voice that had helped him twice belonged to, he would always feel uneasy. Although he had roughly guessed that the person who helped him was Lin Feng, he still wasn’t reassured unless Lin Feng confirmed it himself.
"It was me." Lin Feng, while driving, answered Leng Hao in a very calm tone. To Lin Feng, this was just a trifling matter hardly worth mentioning, let alone that Leng Hao was Leng Mei’s brother. No matter what, he wouldn’t let Leng Hao get hurt, so helping Leng Hao was a matter of course.
"Ah! It really was you! How did you do it?" When Leng Hao heard Lin Feng’s affirmative response, he was completely taken aback. Even though he had braced himself for the truth, he was still startled upon hearing it directly from Lin Feng. The ability to suddenly project one’s voice into someone else’s head was truly magical. Such an occurrence had never been heard of in the Cultivation World... How exactly did Lin Feng manage to accomplish such a wondrous feat? It was truly unimaginable. No, he must find out exactly how Lin Feng did it—how could he possibly pass up such a miraculous thing?
After interacting with Lin Feng for the past few days, Leng Hao had also roughly understood Lin Feng’s character—that anything Lin Feng said was true. Lin Feng would never make false statements about anything. If Lin Feng chose not to speak, he would remain quiet, but once he spoke, the matter at hand must certainly exist. So now Leng Hao had full confidence in Lin Feng’s words, and moreover, on both occasions, the only person who could have spoken out to help him was Lin Feng, and now that Lin Feng himself had confirmed doing so, it was undoubtedly Lin Feng who had done it.
"It’s very simple, just a use of technique with True Qi. When the sound is produced, I use True Qi to create a channel, allowing the sound to transmit only through that channel. It’s quite easy to achieve." Lin Feng’s lips moved, but he made no sound—using the very technique he was explaining to Leng Hao. Such a technique was very easy for Lin Feng to perform.
"What, True Qi! Brother Lin, just what kind of level are you? True Qi released externally? You can even control True Qi... How is this possible?" Upon hearing Lin Feng’s explanation, Leng Hao was completely dumbfounded. He immediately noticed that while Lin Feng was explaining, his lips moved without making a sound. Instead, the sentence appeared directly in his mind, shocking him so much he was almost at a loss for words.
True Qi, that’s right, it was True Qi!
How could True Qi possibly achieve such a feat? It was too miraculous!
Leng Hao’s eyes were now filled with admiration as he watched Lin Feng, and his heart was overwhelmed with shock. From their previous exchanges, he knew Lin Feng was an exceptional expert—the ability to subdue him, an AA-level peak expert, with just one hand, had already indicated that Lin Feng must be an AAA-level super expert. How old was Lin Feng to possess such earth-defying strength!
Moreover, he had never heard of any other use for True Qi. In the known Cultivation World, True Qi was only used for releasing Fist Aura, Sword Qi, and the like; there was no mention of controlling it. What level of master then was Lin Feng to command such a technique? It was unprecedented! If True Qi could indeed be used in such a way, then...then...
At this point, Leng Hao could no longer describe the astonishment he felt towards Lin Feng. He knew Lin Feng was powerful, but he had not imagined Lin Feng had reached such an extraordinary realm.
"I don’t even know what level I should be considered. But True Qi can indeed be used in this way. After you reach AAA-level in the future, I can guide you in the application of True Qi," Lin Feng said indifferently to Leng Hao, who was so amazed. He had long known that the control of True Qi was virtually an unexplored domain in the Cultivation World, so Leng Hao’s amazement was quite normal, which is why he casually responded to Leng Hao.
"What! That would be wonderful! I can’t wait to learn! By the way, Brother Lin, how did you predict Yuan Kun’s moves, and then guide me to counter his techniques? This...this is too incredible! I just can’t figure it out." When Leng Hao heard Lin Feng say this, he was overjoyed. Although Lin Feng didn’t answer what level of master he was, Leng Hao understood that everyone had secrets, and knowing that Lin Feng was an AAA-level super expert was enough.
Immediately afterward, Leng Hao recalled the miraculous event that had just occurred—Lin Feng seemed to be able to predict Yuan Kun’s moves, thereby telling him how to respond with ease. That was even more inconceivable. After all, Lin Feng had never seen Yuan Kun in action before, so how did Lin Feng know what moves Yuan Kun was going to use, and without making a single mistake? This was too inconceivable, too astonishment!
Now Leng Hao’s mind was full of questions that he felt he would almost suffocate if he didn’t ask. After a slight hesitation, he still couldn’t help but ask Lin Feng, hoping that Lin Feng would give him a definitive answer.
