“Everybody, stand up.” said Duan Wu Ya while waving his hand. The ones who were still kneeling down slowly stood up but for a long time, they were unable to calm down. A position as important as officer of the Imperial Guard had been transferred so easily.
Duan Wu Ya’s opinion was that there was nothing special or surprising about it. It was as if the Imperial Guard didn’t mean that much to him.
“Yu Ji, now you are the officer of the Imperial Guard, you know what you have to do.”
Yu Ji nodded and bowed while saying: “Your Highness, I will leave with the guards now and patrol the streets to ensure the residents’ safety.”
“Alright, you can go.” said Duan Wu Ya while waving. Immediately after, several tens of thousands of guards left, only those from Duan Ren City, who were surrounding the Death Sentence Stage, were still there. Nobody could threaten them.
Duan Tian Lang and his son’s facial expression was growing more and more hideous. Duan Tian Lang had wanted to kill Liu Cang Lan but at the crucial moment, Lin Feng had appeared with Duan Xin Ye. They had rushed over and killing Liu Cang Lan had become impossible, he was going to stay alive.
Besides, Duan Han wanted to marry Liu Fei. Using Liu Cang Lan’s life as a bargaining tool, he had been blackmailing her, if she wasn’t willing to engage in a relationship with him, he would turn his back on Liu Cang Lan, who would then die. Liu Fei hated him and didn’t want to become his wife, she rejected his offer.
What was making them boil with envy was that Lin Feng had become a marquis, the officer of the Chi Xie army, and had obtained the control of his hometown. Besides, Duan Wu Ya had also appointed a new person to be the officer of the Imperial Guards. It was a crushing defeat for them.
All these things had happened because of one person: Lin Feng.
At that moment, Duan Tian Lang and his son were looking at Lin Feng with ice-cold glares.
Lin Feng turned around and looked at them. His face was filled with killing intent and he made no attempt to hide it.
“Lin Feng, we’re stopping this for the time being.” said Duan Wu Ya in a low voice when he sensed Lin Feng was ready to kill. Duan Tian Lang had a high status, he was a noble from the Duan Clan. Duan Tian Lang was a member of the Imperial family. Killing him isn’t as easy as killing Meng Han, it would need a justified reason.
Lin Feng had no excuse to kill Duan Tian Lang at that moment.
“Yes, I understand, Your Highness. What happened today is over, for the time being.” said Lin Feng while slightly nodding. The soldiers sighed. Duan Tian Lang would stay alive after all he had done, even though the blood of so many people was on his hands.
Of course, they weren’t blaming Lin Feng. What he had done wasn’t easy at all. If Lin Feng hadn’t been there, Liu Cang Lan would have been executed and they would have been doomed as well, as they would have been considered as a rebel army.
“But…..” At that moment, Lin Feng turned around and looked at Duan Tian Lang and Duan Han, he said: “What happened today is over for now, but last time, Duan Tian Lang brought an army to exterminate the Yun Hai Sect. The Yun Hai Sect turned into a bloodbath. I, Lin Feng, as a disciple of the Yun Hai Sect, need to get my revenge because of the hatred left deep within my heart. Therefore, the enmity between Duan Tian Lang and me will never end without his death.”
The crowd was stupefied, it wasn’t over. Lin Feng used to be a disciple of the Yun Hai Sect, therefore, he had an excuse for not letting past grievances be settled.
