Just as Qin Feng was about to continue squeezing Lin San dry……
A group of people walked towards them, with Lin Xin’er of Heaven Heart City leading them.
Lin Xin’er spoke coldly, “Lin San, I can give you another chance, provided that you tell me the truth. This young lady promises that bygones will be bygones, and you will still be a member of my Heaven Heart City. "
“Eldest young miss, I truly don’t know!”
A bitter smile appeared on Lin San’s face, he truly didn’t know where a divine crystal mine would be.
“Hah! Fine!”
Lin Xin’er had a furious smile, “If that is the case, this lady will announce your banishment from the Heaven Heart City. From this day onwards, you, Lin San, will no longer be a member of Heaven Heart City.”
“Ah, this!!”
Qin Feng was stunned.
He truly didn’t understand how this young lady had managed to avoid Chosen Ones again and again perfectly.
First, she annulled her engagement with his younger brother in the Qin family, and now, she was chasing Lin San out of Heaven Heart City in front of an entire crowd. Furthermore, she had also let him, such a perfect and upright Confucius disciple, slip by back then.
However, as the only silent supporter behind Lin San and the only man who trusted him, he naturally couldn’t just watch someone else bully Lin San like this.
He decided to frame, ptui, he meant to transfer the discovery of the divine crystal mine in the Blood Red Sea under Lin San’s name. Of course, this didn’t include the right to use and exploit, as well as the right to know about the mine.
“Since the young miss decided not to trust me, then I have nothing else to say as well. Goodbye!”
A hint of disappointment flashed past Lin San’s eyes as he cupped his hands toward Qin Feng before departing, leaving behind nothing but the sight of his lonely back.
“What, he truly wants to withdraw from Heaven Heart City!?”
Lin Xin’er looked at Lin San’s departing figure in great disbelief. She suspected that her ears had failed her.
It was important to note that the dangers of the Kunlun hidden realm didn’t just revolve around the conflicts over the treasure within, but after they left the hidden realm.
With the closure of the Kunlun hidden realm, all outsiders would be forcefully ejected out randomly, which also meant that they would appear at random locations in Huang Gu.
It wasn’t hard to imagine……
Cultivators under the age of thirty, with no one above the Sky Sect realm, not only did they possess rare treasures of heaven and earth, they would also possess the coveted divine crystals.
It was akin to young children roaming the streets with gold in their hands, it was a sight that would always elicit greed from others.
Those old demons would all leave their seclusion as the younger generation sought to notify their elders. If their elders failed to reach them in time, this meant that they would be reduced to nothing more than prey in the eyes of those old demons.
This was also the reason why most influential forces would avoid entering large-scale conflicts after entering the Kunlun hidden realm, it was all so that they could gather their strength and await their elder’s arrival after leaving.
Now that Lin San had made the decision to withdraw from the Heaven Heart City, it meant that he had lost their protection as well. After the hidden realm’s inevitable closure, he would become the coveted prey of those old demons.
No matter which angle she viewed this from, Lin San’s decision was illogical.
“Who do you think you are? To join and leave the Heaven Heart City just like that, do you think that we would allow it!?”
Lin Xin’er’s embarrassment swiftly transformed into fury, and she immediately ordered her men to stop Lin San.
“Yes!!”
Receiving her orders, the members of Heaven Heart City swiftly charged forth to stop him.
“Eldest young miss, do not force my hand!”
Lin San’s calm voice resonated, a chilling tone hidden within.
He had first obtained the legacy of the Sky Sword God before accidentally obtaining the position of servant in Heaven Heart City. As a result, he had assumed the mentality of a wanderer during his stay there.
In all honesty, Heaven Heart City had not been of much help to him. For the sake of his sentimentality towards their short relationship, he had chosen to tolerate them, all for them to take advantage of it.
“Lin San, do you even have the strength to threaten us!?”
The members of Heaven Heart City snorted coldly.
If it was before Lin San and Qin Feng’s clash, they would have never dared to speak to Lin San with such a tone. After all, the previous battle caused them to believe that Lin San’s title of the strongest swordsman in the next century was over-exaggerated.
Now that Lin San was heavily injured from his battle with Qin Feng, they naturally started to disregard his abilities.
“You can try!”
Lin San’s gaze turned solemn as the sword Qi around him started to pulsate.
Huala!
Arming themselves instantly, the Heaven Heart City’s members surrounded Lin San.
“How bold for the Heaven Heart City to try and capture someone of mine right in front of me!”
Just as the tension between them reached its peak, Qin Feng’s calm voice resonated in the entire area. While his tone was indifferent, anyone who heard his voice couldn’t help but tremble.
“Qin Feng!”
The expressions of the Heaven Heart City’s members contorted as they unconsciously took a few steps back.
What a joke!
They were direct witnesses of Qin Feng’s horrifying ability earlier. Not only was he able to defeat countless prodigies alone, but even Yi Jian, Yu Lan, Fang Chang, and Lin San, the four demon-level prodigies, were completely dominated by him.
They could disregard the injured Lin San, but they couldn’t do the same to this young master.
“Qin Feng, what do you mean!?”
Lin Xin’er’s expression was full of wariness, she had conflicted emotions towards Qin Feng.
If it weren’t for Qin Feng’s action of gouging out Qin Hao’s Sovereign Bones seven years ago, she wouldn’t have annulled her engagement with the Qin family.
At the same time, she was deliberating over one question. If her father had chosen Qin Feng to be his son-in-law back then, wouldn’t they have avoided a lot of troubles?
Qin Feng sent a cold glance towards her, “My intentions are clear. Lin San is my blood-related brother from a different father and mother, whoever dares to touch him will be my enemy!”
“Blood-related brother from a different father and mother?!”
The expressions of everyone present turned strange, everyone suspected that their ears had failed them.
It was public knowledge that Qin Feng was a bastard who was capable of harming even his blood-related younger brother. But now, he was claiming to be brothers with another person of a different surname, and he even declared that he would take anyone as his enemy as long as they touched Lin San.
Is this normal!?
Is this logical!?
It was clearly abnormal and illogical, unless, they had some unique relationship!
“Let’s go!”
Lin Xin’er swiftly issued the command to leave, she didn’t dare to take Qin Feng as her enemy.
After experiencing that battle earlier, much less the Heaven Heart City, even if they pulled all of the prodigies in the Kunlun hidden realm here, the only thing that would stall their inevitable demise was time.
“Many thanks to brother Qin!”
Lin San cupped his hands in gratitude.
While he didn’t care much about the people of Heaven Heart City, he was undoubtedly moved by Qin Feng’s words earlier.
In reality, after spending some time with Qin Feng, one would realise that he wasn’t a bastard as the rumours had said. Even though no one trusted him, Qin Feng chose to believe in him, and even as they sought to make things difficult for him, Qin Feng helped diffuse the situation.
Aside from his unscrupulous nature, Qin Feng was a decent person, and he was definitely someone who he could consider a close friend.
“Ding dong! Congratulations to Master for cheating the feelings of a Chosen One. You have obtained 50,000 villain points!”
“Don’t worry about it!”
Qin Feng was full of smiles as he approached Lin San, his hand giving his ass a tight slap.
“En!!”
Lin San’s figure immediately shot up, a strange sense of unease washing over him.
The gaze that Qin Feng sent his way was still extremely familiar, and after comparing the difference in treatment Qin Feng gave him in comparison to his own younger brother, he truly didn’t dare to think any further……
