Chapter 874: Unyielding in the Face of Death Despite Being Smashed to Pieces
Watching Lin Feng from not far away, their feelings were not only those of gratitude but also of astonishment towards Lin Feng. Being just over 20 and possessing such strength that they could only look up to, made them feel seriously inferior. They couldn’t help but sigh inwardly, "How can there be such a vast difference between people?" Compared to Lin Feng, the results they had struggled to achieve through long cultivation seemed utterly insignificant.
Lin Feng, oh Lin Feng, how on earth did he cultivate such unprecedented, world-shocking power. It... it truly is a mystery...
Although they didn’t know how Lin Feng had become such an incredible, unparalleled master, they all knew that these matters were beyond their contemplation. They only needed to know that Lin Feng was the great benefactor of the entire Nangong Family. Just knowing this was enough. With Lin Feng there, Nangong Family would no longer face any threats...
"There’s no need for everyone to act this way. If you want to thank someone, thank your elder ancestor. If it wasn’t for him, I wouldn’t have come here. The battle with Li Deming was inevitable, there’s really no need to thank me."
Lin Feng waved his hand towards Nangong Mingyue and the others, signaling them not to be so formal. In Lin Feng’s view, today’s battle with Li Deming was predestined, it just so happened that the battlefield changed to the Nangong Family’s home. There was no need for the Nangong Family to feel so indebted to him.
"Lin Feng, you’re being too modest. I, Nangong He, on behalf of the entire Nangong Family, swear that if you ever need us in the future, we will use the full force of the Nangong Family to repay you for today’s great kindness!"
Nangong He grasped Lin Feng’s hand, speaking excitedly. He certainly knew Lin Feng was being modest. The battle between Lin Feng and Li Deming was inevitable, but if it wasn’t for the Old Monster, Lin Feng would not have made the trip all the way to the Nangong Family in Australia to face Li Deming. So, all this was Lin Feng’s modest way of declining the Nangong Family’s gratitude. With this, it was clear that Lin Feng’s character was impeccable. For someone so young and with such incredible martial prowess, to have such an attitude was truly rare!
But even though Lin Feng said so, Nangong He didn’t think that way. After a brief reflection, Nangong He made such a solemn promise. In his view, it wasn’t excessive at all. Without Lin Feng, they would have ceased to exist, so no form of repayment to Lin Feng could be considered too much.
"The elder is right. Lin Feng, you are the great benefactor of our Nangong Family, a fact we will forever remember," said Nangong Mingyue, immediately expressing his agreement. This aligned with his own thoughts. The great favor Lin Feng had done for the Nangong Family meant that no form of repayment could be excessive. Should Lin Feng ever need help, he will spare no effort from the entire Nangong Family to repay Lin Feng for his kindness today. And since the elder had already spoken out, as the Family Head of the Nangong Family, it was even more critical for him to step forward at this moment and convey the sincerity of the Nangong Family, letting Lin Feng feel their gratitude.
"To be shattered to pieces and die a thousand deaths without hesitation!"
"To be shattered to pieces and die a thousand deaths without hesitation!"
"To be shattered to pieces and die a thousand deaths without hesitation!"
...
Hearing Nangong Mingyue speak like this, the other members of Nangong Family joined in, echoing his words. They shared the sentiment, and their emotions were high, joyous for having survived a catastrophe, which was indescribable in words. Lin Feng’s act of kindness towards them and the Nangong Family was as great as remaking their lives. In the future, should Lin Feng need it, they would absolutely expend all their strength in repayment...
"Alright, there’s no need for any more thanks. Let’s leave today’s matters at this," said Lin Feng, once again waving his hand to calm everyone’s emotions. He now realized that talking further was unnecessary. Now that there were no more issues, it was time for him to leave. Shen Yao and his senior sister were waiting in the city, he should return. Casually mentioning he should leave, Lin Feng spoke these parting words.
Afterward, Lin Feng’s figure flickered, leaving the crowd’s circle, moving to where the Windbreaker Ancient Sword lay. He picked up the Ancient Sword and approached the weighted carrying gear, putting it on again...
"Alright, Mingyue, please see Lin Feng off," Nangong He said as he watched Lin Feng preparing to leave. Although he really wanted Lin Feng to stay and host a banquet in his honor, Nangong He understood why Lin Feng was in such a hurry to leave—after all, there were two incredibly beautiful women waiting for him in the city area. Lin Feng was probably worried about them. With this in mind, Nangong He didn’t try to stop him anymore and just said this directly. After speaking, Nangong He also arranged for someone to fetch a new set of clothes for Lin Feng. The previous set had been completely shattered in battle; there was no way they could let Lin Feng leave bare.
As for hosting a banquet for Lin Feng, there would be other opportunities in the future. Once the Nangong Family’s affairs were settled, he would definitely visit Tianhai in person and host Lin Feng there...
"Yes, ancestor," Nangong Mingyue responded quickly after hearing what the elder said. She understood why Lin Feng was eager to leave—there was nothing left for him to attend to here, and it was better to let Lin Feng return, so he wouldn’t worry about the two beauties. There would be plenty of opportunities to thank Lin Feng in the future; it wasn’t necessary to insist on doing so at this very moment.
The other family members wanted to say something to persuade Lin Feng to stay, but with the ancestor’s decision already made, it wasn’t appropriate to say anything more. They could only let Lin Feng leave and immediately sent someone to fetch a new set of clothes for him.
After Lin Feng dressed in the new clothes, taking over the load-bearing gear, he didn’t hesitate to put them on. Waving his hand to Nangong He and the rest of the Nangong family, he said nothing and simply left the place with Nangong Mingyue...
When Lin Feng and Shen Yao met up, both women immediately noticed that Lin Feng was not wearing his original clothes, which surprised them. Those clothes were personally chosen by them, and Lin Feng normally wouldn’t have changed them unless something had happened during his visit to the Nangong Family...
Thinking this, the women started to feel nervous. They carefully examined Lin Feng from head to toe and, finding no injuries, they finally felt relieved. However, the two women were smart and said nothing. Whatever the process had been, as long as Lin Feng wasn’t hurt, nothing else mattered. If Lin Feng wanted to tell them what happened, he naturally would, and if he didn’t, it was surely not to worry them.
Of course, Lin Feng didn’t want to talk about it either. Startling them was one thing, but more importantly, he didn’t want his senior sisters to worry about him. Since they didn’t ask, Lin Feng didn’t dwell on the matter. After changing into a fresh set of clothes at the hotel, he resumed the happy excursion with his children.
Time spent in happiness always flies by quickly. Before they knew it, another two days had passed. During these two days, the three of them had a great time, visiting all the fun places and eating at all the tasty spots in Hill. They even bought lots and lots of things, piling up a large area in the hotel...
That morning, Shen Yao suddenly received a call from a classmate, saying classes were starting, which marked the end of their joyful Australian trip. Chu Meng, too, was in high spirits and discussed with Lin Feng about visiting Yuegang for a good tour and more shopping before returning to Tianhai. Lin Feng, of course, would not refuse such a suggestion, so the three of them boarded the Ocean Number and returned directly to Yuegang. Shen Yao went back to her school, while Lin Feng and Chu Meng stayed at the Shen Family mansion.
In the afternoon, Lin Feng took Chu Meng for another frenzied shopping spree. Chu Meng found this time truly enjoyable. She had been too busy before to care about such things, with everything managed by her subordinates, but we shouldn’t forget that she was also a young woman who was very enthusiastic about shopping, especially after being confined for nearly half a year, and having Lin Feng by her side made her heart completely liberated.
Throughout the afternoon, Chu Meng’s smile never faded. She was truly happy that Lin Feng was accompanying her alone for shopping. She very much liked this kind of life and couldn’t help but look forward to more days like this in the future.
In truth, Chu Meng’s heart was already wavering. The more she stayed by her junior brother’s side, the less she felt she could leave him, which made her very uneasy. She didn’t know what the future would hold if she made their relationship clear. Her heart was filled with trepidation, but she dared not take that step; she was afraid the outcome wouldn’t be as she hoped. If Lin Feng said he only saw her as a senior sister, how could she continue to face him?
That was why Chu Meng chose to act this way, saying nothing—as long as Lin Feng was by her side, that was enough for her. Like an ostrich, she didn’t dare face anything else...
In the evening, when they returned to the Shen Family mansion, they were met with the lavish hospitality arranged by Uncle Fu. Lin Feng had wanted to talk to Shen Tian, but he learned from Uncle Fu that Shen Tian was not in Yuegang, so he let the matter rest. After dinner, both of them retired to their respective rooms to rest.
However, Lin Feng didn’t expect that just as he returned to his room, there was a knock at the door, which surprised him.
"Come in, the door isn’t locked," Lin Feng casually said. It should be Uncle Fu, he thought. With Shen Tian not at home, the only person likely to knock on his door was this old steward. In a family like the Shen Family, it was unthinkable for ordinary servants to do so.
