“The crown prince, Duan Wu Dao.” Replied Yue Meng He in a grave tone. She then continued: “Duan Wu Dao has the same blood as Duan Ren Huang, they have identical temperaments too. Duan Ren Huang and Duan Wu Dao are very close. Besides, Duan Wu Dao is now ranked first amongst the eight high-officials, just like Duan Ren Huang was in the past, they have terrifying strength and shocking talent.”
“Duan Wu Dao!” Whispered Lin Feng. The crown prince Duan Wu Dao was wild and unruly, aggressive and violent, if anyone offended him, he would kill everyone involved, but if people were nice to him, he would treat them well, he was extremely aggressive when provoked.
“I will be careful.” Nodded Lin Feng.
Yue Meng He smiled and nodded while looking at Lin Feng, she then added, sounding confident: “Little Feng, don’t put too much pressure on yourself. You’re only eighteen years old and you can already kill cultivators of the fourth Xuan Qi layer, you’re much stronger than your father and me at your age. Apart from Duan Wu Dao, none of the other high-officials have more potential than you. You will be stronger than all of them soon enough, it’s only a matter of time. Your objective should be to reach the top of the eight high-officials.”
“The top of the eight high-officials!” Lin Feng raised his head and gazed solemnly into the distance. His objective needed to be more than that.
Maybe his natural abilities weren’t high enough, maybe he wasn’t very strong, it didn’t matter, he always needed to aim for higher goals. If he didn’t have the talent, he would pay in blood, sweat and tears to make his dreams come true. He had to keep climbing higher, until everyone that looked down on him, was forced to look up at him and watch him soar into the heavens.
It was the same as with Chu Zhan Peng, nobody thought that Lin Feng could compete with him. In front of Chu Zhan Peng, he was nothing more than an insect, however, Lin Feng had never considered Chu Zhan Peng as his goal, he just focused on becoming stronger to protect the ones he cares for. He broke through every hurdle which stood in the way of his martial path.
“Duan Wu Dao, the crown prince, cannot have Xue Yue as his goal.” Thought Lin Feng. If Duan Wu Dao had had Xue Yue as his goal, he would have become dispirited and would have lost the motivation to grow stronger. Duan Wu Dao was able to push everybody aside because he always pursued the goal of becoming stronger.
“Little Feng, I will bring you to a certain place.” Yue Meng He suddenly said mysteriously which surprised Lin Feng. A certain place?
Could it be that there was something incredible in the Lovesick Forest again?
Lin Feng looked at his father Lin Hai, he was smiling, which made Lin Feng even more surprised.
“Alright.” Replied Lin Feng while nodding, he was truly curious.
Yue Meng He led the way and they started walking through a dense forest. Lin Feng and Meng Qing calmly followed from behind. They crossed a distance of about a thousand steps and in front of them appeared a few trees which were around a thousand years old as well.
There were four ancient trees, this place was extremely dark, the trees were blotting out the sky and not a single light could enter their domain. Vines had already wrapped around the trees. In the middle of those four trees, there was surprisingly a cave going into the ground, one couldn’t see into the cave though, it was very strange, it looked extremely deep.
Yue Meng He took a step forwards and walked into the cave. Lin Feng was stupefied.
“Little Feng. Come!” Said Yue Meng He while turning her head and smiling at Lin Feng. After that, Lin Hai entered the cave too. Lin Feng looked at them and then suddenly, Yue Meng He and Lin Hai disappeared from sight. They disappeared inside the cave in an instant without any warning.
