Chapter 519: Resigned to Fate
Hearing Ling Feng’s words, Chen Xiao and Zhang Meng both sighed with relief.
Thereafter, Chen Xiao said with a sheepish smile, "Then the two of us can rest easy. Please be assured, Commander Ling, we will definitely cooperate with you in the coming days!"
"Alright, it’s getting late. You all should head back and rest, we’ll talk more tomorrow," Ling Feng said with a laugh.
Watching the two leave, he shook his head, closed the door, and returned to the room.
Lin Xue gave him a teasing look, "So that’s it? Just like that?"
"What else? I’m not one to hold a grudge. It’s enough to teach them a lesson. Do you think I should really fall out with them?" Ling Feng laughed.
"Then I can rest easy too!"
Lin Xue smiled, then pointed at the two mattresses, "Are you really planning to sleep on these tonight?"
"Yep, could I possibly go sleep in a room?" asked Ling Feng.
"Well, think carefully. If Feng Ling sneaks out the window under cover of night, then you’re going to have a hard time explaining to Zhang He tomorrow," Lin Xue said with a laugh.
Ling Feng scratched his head, "That shouldn’t happen, right? Zhang He’s methods are certainly reliable. This girl has fainted and won’t wake up any time soon!"
"Let’s hope so!"
Lin Xue nodded, stepped over to the mattresses, and started to straighten them out.
However, after Lin Xue’s reminder, Ling Feng suddenly hesitated and then said, "Just to be cautious, I should stay in the bedroom."
"By yourself?" asked Lin Xue, looking up.
"Yep, the bedroom isn’t that big, and three people might be a bit crowded," Ling Feng said.
Lin Xue laughed, "You’re not planning to take advantage of someone’s unconscious state to do something sneaky, are you?"
"..."
With a look of exasperation, Ling Feng rolled his eyes at her, "What nonsense are you thinking about? In that case, you go into the room and keep watch!"
"I won’t. I don’t have your level of self-control; I’m afraid if Feng Ling runs away, I couldn’t bear the responsibility either!" Lin Xue said, laughing.
Ling Feng was completely at a loss for words, "So what should we do?"
Seeing him flustered, Lin Xue chuckled, "Alright, alright, I was just teasing you. Hurry up and go to the bedroom."
"You’re the one telling me to go, don’t call me lecherous!" Ling Feng glared at her.
"Don’t worry, I know what kind of person you are. I was really just joking!" Lin Xue said, grinning.
Ling Feng: "..."
Whether Lin Xue was sincere or not, he had no reason to be angry.
Who asked him to have a history of improprieties?
However, with regard to Feng Ling, although she was very cute, Ling Feng had not forgotten that she had an adversarial identity, so he didn’t harbor any unsavory thoughts towards her.
This didn’t need explanation; too much explanation would seem like a cover-up, which was pointless.
So he turned and entered the bedroom, and to prove his innocence, he deliberately left the lights on and the door open.
He then pulled a blanket over to the floor, turned to check on Feng Ling, and saw her lying on the bed motionless, breathing evenly, clearly still in deep sleep.
Lying on the ground, Ling Feng called out to Lin Xue in the air, "I’ve just realized the floor isn’t that narrow, so why don’t you come in too?"
"No thanks, this new mattress is comfortable. I’m going to have a good sleep!"
Lin Xue spoke and promptly turned off the lights in the living room, leaving Ling Feng rolling his eyes.
He had no more interest in teasing her and simply closed his eyes, preparing to sleep as well.
The room instantly quieted down, and the only sound Ling Feng could hear was Feng Ling’s gentle breathing.
Ling Feng held his head, lost in wild thoughts for a while, until he gradually drifted off to sleep.
The slumber was incredibly sweet; he had no idea how much time had passed when he suddenly smelled a fragrance, followed by a prompt flashing in his mind, "Drunken Soul Fragrance, can put a normal person into such a deep sleep they won’t wake up, completely unaware!"
Even in his dreams, the sight of this prompt jolted Ling Feng awake instantly!
Upon seeing the white smoke wafting before him, he bolted upright in a flash!
Turning his head, he saw Feng Ling staring at him, dumbfounded. Their eyes met, and Ling Feng immediately noticed the black, thumb-thick rod she was holding, the embers on it not yet extinguished, and a wisp of blue smoke still dispersing!
"Damn it!"
Ling Feng understood right away; this girl must have woken up at some point, secretly lit the Drunken Soul Fragrance, aiming to knock him out and then escape!
Luckily, he reacted in time. If not for the prompt in his mind, he probably would have fallen victim already!
Thinking this, Ling Feng’s anger surged from within. He sprung onto the bed, snatched the black rod from Feng Ling’s hand, extinguished it, and then tossed it into the trash bin!
Feng Ling remained in a daze throughout, not even putting up a fight, until Ling Feng grabbed her by the throat, which finally snapped her back to reality!
"What, what are you going to do?"
Feng Ling’s breathing became rapid, and her little face instantly turned red!
"You wretched girl, you deceived me before and now you’re drugging me, are you asking for death?"
Ling Feng said angrily, his face distorted with rage.
A flash of terror crossed her eyes as Feng Ling struggled and said, "I, I..."
"What ’I’? You’ll suffer the consequences for not respecting the toast!"
Ling Feng released his hold and then pushed her hard, toppling her onto the bed!
"What are you going to do?"
Feng Ling was truly scared. She immediately curled up, using her hands and feet to protect her private parts like a hedgehog!
Ling Feng chuckled, "Since you’re not behaving, I’ll have to teach you a lesson and show you I’m not so easily fooled!"
As he said this, he reached for her clothes to tear them, frightening Feng Ling into screaming!
"Scream again, and believe it or not, I’ll knock you out and can still strip you bare?" Ling Feng stopped his hands and asked with a sneer.
"You..."
Feng Ling’s eyes welled up with tears, the sudden change leaving her too shocked to react, her mind going blank.
But she knew she was probably doomed. If she were violated by the man before her, she could no longer become the Black Dragon Sect’s Saintess!
In her terror, forgetting to react, her clothes were ripped open by Ling Feng, exposing her white undergarment.
Along with it, her fair skin was revealed, a rare sight compared to the swarthy locals of the southwest!
Ling Feng, who was only intending to scare her, paused, his heartbeat suddenly quickening, feeling an improper desire for the petite body before him!
As his eyes gradually reddened, his breathing also became more rapid!
Feng Ling was too nervous to speak, her body going limp, unable to move!
The air seemed to freeze for a few seconds. Just as two large tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes, and she turned her head aside, bracing herself for Ling Feng’s violence, she heard him burst into laughter!
Turning her head in surprise, Feng Ling looked at him with eyes full of confusion.
Ling Feng stared at her, "What’s the matter, you’ve given up already? Not even going to try to resist?"
"What exactly do you want!"
Seeing the mockery in his eyes, Feng Ling’s face flushed with anger as she asked loudly.
