The Greatest Village Doctor In The World

Chapter 1023: Stalemate

Ling Feng asked this question with a simple purpose: to learn the fleeting thoughts in the other person’s mind.

But unexpectedly, all he got was a blank!

Mind Soul Art was ineffective!

At this moment, the impostor Chen Yan asked with a look of surprise: "What are you talking about?"

"It’s nothing, just a casual question!"

Ling Feng laughed, released his grip from around her shoulders, and then continued: "Since you don’t have class this morning, let’s just stay here in the woods!"

"What?"

Chen Yan was stunned, her face full of amazement.

"What’s the matter? Aren’t you happy that I’m keeping you company?" Ling Feng asked with a smile.

"..."

Chen Yan’s eyes flickered, and she was utterly confused.

And this was exactly what Ling Feng wanted, he chuckled softly, saying nothing further.

He roughly understood what was going on. This guy was impersonating Chen Yan and had been in the woods all morning, obviously not to investigate anything. He was waiting for that egg!

The previous one was eaten by Tian Hao and the others, and he didn’t get his hands on it, so he was waiting for the second one!

Ling Feng now had no time to think about the reasons behind this, his only goal was to stop the imposter!

After all, the right response was to interfere with whatever he was planning to do, and that was never the wrong approach.

However, considering the real Chen Yan’s whereabouts were still unknown, Ling Feng stood up after a moment of silence and said: "I drank too much water this morning, I need to use the restroom!"

After saying that, he walked deeper into the woods, taking out his phone as he walked, and sent a message to Zhou Yi.

The content was just two words: "Chen Yan."

After sending it, footsteps sounded from behind, Ling Feng turned to look and saw the fake Chen Yan behind him, so he asked: "What’s up?"

"Did you discover something?" the other person asked.

The gaze turned gloomy. Ling Feng paused for a moment, then laughed: "That’s right, I know you’re an impostor!"

"Then why are you still putting on an act?" asked the fake Chen Yan.

"I want to see what you’re planning to do. What, you don’t want to wait for that egg to fall anymore?" Ling Feng asked with a grin.

"I’ll come for it when I want it. With you meddling here, I might as well kill you first!"

Chen Yan said, her fingertips suddenly turning into sharp, shiny metal, lunging straight for Ling Feng’s throat!

"Child’s play!"

Ling Feng sneered, leaning backward to dodge the attack.

Then, the cold glint in his hand flashed, the blade aiming straight for the imposter’s chest!

"Huh?"

The fake Chen Yan let out a cry of surprise, leaped up, and then looked at Chen Han with amazement: "Aren’t you afraid of killing your girlfriend?"

"You are an impostor, why should I be afraid?" Ling Feng sneered back.

"Impostor?"

The other person chuckled, "You got it wrong. This time I’m not simply impersonating her; I’m using her body. If you don’t care, come on and kill me—she’ll be the first to die!"

"..."

Ling Feng was stunned.

What does ’better to err on the side of caution’ mean?

This was the situation right in front of him!

Chen Yan was innocent, and he didn’t want this girl to be implicated as well.

So after a moment of shock, he could no longer bring himself to unleash the blade.

"Then die!"

Seeing his hesitation, the other person sneered, and ten shiny nails plunged forward again!

Ling Feng had no choice but to turn and dodge. The imposter’s offensive was fierce, but he dared not retaliate, only managing to dodge again and again.

They remained in a standoff for a moment, and Ling Feng couldn’t help asking, "You cannot kill me, so why bother going through all this trouble?"

"Can’t kill you?"

The other party stopped moving and then placed five fingernails near their own neck, "I can still kill her, what do you think about that?"

"Don’t!"

Ling Feng was utterly flabbergasted and immediately cried out.

As a result, the impostor Chen Yan became even more smug, laughing loudly, "So you really do care a lot about this girl, huh!"

"If that’s the case, then I don’t need to do anything myself. Go ahead and cripple yourself first!"

Ling Feng: "..."

This scene felt familiar. Last time, when Lin Xue was kidnapped, it was a similar situation.

While Ling Feng was in a dilemma, his cell phone chimed.

"Hello, can I check the text message first?" Ling Feng asked, taking out his phone.

Before the other party could respond, he saw the message from Zhou Yi: "Person safe, all is well!"

The four words, though not many, carried the weight of a thousand catties, immediately lifting the heavy stone off Ling Feng’s chest.

So he put away his phone, looked at the other party and asked, "I’m a bit afraid of pain and reluctant to hurt myself, what should I do?"

"So you want her to die?" the impostor Chen Yan, gritting her teeth, asked.

"To tell you the truth," Ling Feng said with a cold laugh, "Chen Yan and I are just ordinary friends. We met just one day ago. How much do you think I care about her?"

Ling Feng sneered and then asked, "So go ahead and make your move. I want to know, after you’ve made your move, what else could you possibly use to threaten me?"

"..."

The other party was clearly dumbfounded.

They were just an impostor; the real Chen Yan was still in the dormitory.

Threatening Ling Feng with harming her body was nothing but an empty bluff to scare him.

Seeing that the tactic was futile, the impostor could only sneer and say, "Why should I listen to you?"

"Because you wouldn’t dare. It’s your body, and the time isn’t right yet. You can’t leave now, and your threats against me have failed, right?"

Ling Feng asked with a smile, then continued, "Now that you have no other options, how about we have a proper fight?"

The impostor Chen Yan’s eyes flickered, and after a moment of silence, she asked, "Who exactly are you?"

"Let’s have you answer the same question first," Ling Feng commanded.

"Even if I die, I won’t tell you the truth!"

The moment the voice fell, the other party’s figure flashed, and they rushed out of the woods instantly.

But Ling Feng didn’t move an inch; instead, he returned to his original spot and sat down with a thump.

A minute later, the impostor Chen Yan came back.

Standing firm twenty meters away, she looked at Ling Feng: "Why didn’t you chase after me?"

"You’re waiting for that ’egg’ to fall. I knew you wouldn’t get far; why should I bother chasing?" Ling Feng asked with a smile.

"..."

The other party was speechless.

Ling Feng was right; the guy just wanted to lure him away and deceive him into leaving.

The plan backfired, resulting in futile effort.

After a moment of silence, the impostor Chen Yan asked, "What exactly do you want?"

Ling Feng smiled, "First, tell me your origin and purpose!"

"Second, surrender!"

"Impossible!"

Ling Feng nodded, "Fine, then we’ll just wait it out. When that ’egg’ falls, I’ll do the same as Tian Hao and the others, smash it open and eat it!"

"Don’t you dare!" the impostor Chen Yan’s eyes nearly spat fire as she spoke furiously.

Ling Feng shrugged, smiling and asking, "Oh really? Then why don’t you kill me? If you kill me, won’t all your problems be solved?"
