Chapter 404 Recapturing the Snow Shadow Sect, Encountering the Elder of the Wuji Palace
Master Li gritted his teeth and said, "Thank you, Brother Lin, but I'll get my revenge myself later."
I worked diligently for the Li family for the first half of my life, only to end up like this.
When I was being suppressed, not a single person in my family spoke up for me.
We're better off without a family like that.
I will give them a taste of their own medicine and make the Li family suffer the same fate as beggars.
Lin Feng nodded.
The worst thing for a person to live is to lack ambition, and it's not bad that you, brother, have this kind of thinking.
The Li family members never dared to return.
After they finished their meal, the two returned to the inn together.
Lin Feng tossed some silver to Master Li, telling him to stay there for a few days and that he would take him back to Qinghe County after he finished his business.
Lin Feng also wanted to reclaim a major power in Feixue County. With power, he could work together with Li Wanru from the inside out.
He easily found out that there was a large gang in Feixue County called Xueyingmen.
This sect has a great influence among the people, and its influence has expanded to the towns and villages of Feixue County, second only to Wuji Palace, yet it has no subordinate relationship with Wuji Palace.
The leader of the Snow Shadow Sect is named Xue Chunlin, and he has ten deputy leaders under him, making the sect's personnel structure somewhat complex.
When developing influence on someone else's territory, Lin Feng always proceeded with the principle of caution.
Don't let the Wuji Palace wipe out your newly recruited followers; otherwise, all your efforts will have been in vain.
Lin Feng seized an opportunity to subdue Xue Chunlin, the leader of the Xueying Sect, with force, and then completely subdued him with the power of empowerment.
Xue Chunlin provided the resources so that Lin Feng could bestow upon him two innate true skills at the perfect level.
Martial artists simply cannot resist the benefits brought by the initiation of divine power.
Especially for unofficial martial artists, the empowerment technique can give them the opportunity to break through to the Innate Realm or even the Grandmaster Realm.
Breaking through one's innate limitations can extend one's lifespan; who wouldn't want to live forever?
After subduing this person, Lin Feng also helped the Blood Shadow Sect with internal cleanup.
He checked the attribute panel and found out all the undercover agents.
Finally, Lin Feng had Xue Chunlin secretly gather his men, and he gave them an initiation ceremony.
He was also instructed to recruit more people, and that he would come back in two months to perform another initiation ceremony.
When Lin Feng left, he used his spiritual power to communicate with Li Wanru, who had returned to Wuji Palace.
Li Wanru has returned to Wuji Palace in the past few days and has cleared herself of any suspicion, firmly establishing herself as the senior disciple of Li Chunqiu's lineage.
Lin Feng instructed Li Wanru to take good care of Xue Chunlin's Xueying Sect, and to have the Xueying Sect do anything that was inconvenient for her to do herself.
After explaining the matter, Lin Feng planned to leave.
Li Wanru called out to him.
"Master, wait a minute. Wuji Palace has four more Grandmasters. They came back from Taixu specifically to investigate Li Chunqiu. They questioned me yesterday."
Judging from their tone, it seemed they were already convinced that Li Chunqiu was dead.
Lin Feng told Xue Chunlin to go back and get busy first, as the matter of the Taixu Evil Spirit should not be made public yet, lest it cause panic.
When Lin Feng killed Li Chunqiu, only Li Wanru was present, so theoretically no one should have known.
But how could the evil spirits of the void be so certain that Li Chunqiu was dead?
He initially thought that the evil spirits in the void could communicate remotely.
Thinking about it again, I realized it was impossible. If I could communicate remotely, I would have been exposed long ago.
He suspected that the evil spirits of the void might have something like soul lamps, which could determine whether their own people were truly dead.
"These four grandmasters might all be evil spirits from the void."
Be extra careful in the Wuji Palace.
"Thank you for your concern, Master. I'm fine."
Master, you seriously injured Li Chunqiu, they will definitely trace it back to you.
You'd better not make any public appearances in Snowy County.
Otherwise, they would definitely think you came to Feixue County to hunt down Li Chunqiu.
Lin Feng nodded. He couldn't confront the evil spirits of the Void openly; he had to hide as much as possible.
"Okay, I understand. I'll leave Feixue County now."
After returning, Lin Feng took Master Li and left Feixue County by carriage.
After leaving Feixue County for some distance, Lin Feng used his lightness skill to carry Master Li on his way.
"Ahhh!" Master Li was extremely excited as he looked at the clouds rushing past below, and couldn't help but shout twice.
"Brother Lin, what level have you reached in your martial arts? You can even fly and disappear into the ground now."
Lin Feng smiled and said, "It's just the Innate Realm. If you work hard, you can reach that level in the future."
"Okay, then I'll spend more time practicing."
After flying for a while, Lin Feng sensed with his mental power that someone was chasing him from behind. The person was quite fast and they were evenly matched.
The man behind him called out to Lin Feng, "I am Elder Feng of Wuji Palace. Could you please stop and have a chat with me, my friend?"
Lin Feng ignored him. He was protected by a protective aura, making it impossible for the people behind him to see him. If he stopped, his identity would be exposed.
Lin Feng never expected that even though he was being so careful, he would still be targeted by a Grandmaster Elder of the Wuji Palace.
Lin Feng used the Flying Fire Meteor technique to accelerate his flight. The friction between his protective aura and the air generated a long trail of flame, increasing his speed several times over.
He left the person behind him further and further behind.
Elder Feng behind Lin Feng was taken aback; the person in front of him could actually accelerate.
He was already skilled in light-body techniques and thought he had reached the pinnacle of them all, but he never expected that someone would be even faster than him, and much faster than him.
Unable to catch up, he could only stop and watch helplessly as Lin Feng disappeared from sight.
Elder Feng had no choice but to return.
Lin Feng's clone left in Feixue County constantly used his spiritual power to sense Elder Feng's location.
Lin Feng left behind a clone mainly to investigate whether the Grandmasters of Wuji Palace would massacre civilians on a large scale as he suspected.
After Lin Feng left, the four elders of Wuji Palace—Feng, Lin, and Huoshan—reunited.
Elder Feng recounted what had happened that day, and the four of them discussed it for a while without reaching a conclusion.
After all, we haven't even seen what the person looks like, so we can't draw any conclusions.
Elder Huo, with his fiery red hair, stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, saying, "No matter who that person is, they're gone now. There are only the four of us Grandmasters left in Feixue County."
Why don't we go out and have some fun, find a county town, and have a good meal?
Elder Lin, who sat there like a withered tree, twitched his eyelids. "Third brother, you've made me hungry."
Hahaha, the elders laughed for a while and flew out of Wuji Palace.
Lin Feng quietly followed behind them.
The four flew over Xue'an County, north of Feixue County.
Xuean County has a population of one million. It is dusk now, and miners and hunters who have gone out to work are heading back to the city.
Lin Feng frowned. He could tell that these people had ill intentions and seemed to really be there to massacre the city.
His main body was already far away, and the true energy and spiritual power stored in his clone were extremely limited. If they were to fight, he would definitely not be a match for these people.
But he couldn't just stand by and watch the four evil spirits slaughter over a million people in the city.
The evil spirits of the void certainly didn't slaughter the people for pleasure; they were more likely trying to grow stronger by devouring flesh and souls.
Lin Feng didn't want them to succeed.
I originally planned to let this clone lie low in Feixue County for a while, but now it seems it might not even last until tomorrow.
