When the old man heard Lin Feng, he remained silent, what could he say in this situation?
It was exactly as Lin Feng described it, and now the old man’s life was in Lin Feng’s hands.
“Is there any possibility of a negotiation?” Asked the old man while looking at Lin Feng.
“No, there isn’t.” Replied Lin Feng without any hesitation while shaking his head.
“When you were in the position of power, you humiliated me and played with me as if I was nothing. You wanted to take my life and humiliate Meng Qing. Now that I am the one with power, do you really think that I will be merciful and spare your life?” When the crowd heard Lin Feng, they sighed. Indeed, everybody had seen how the old man had treated Lin Feng. In the illusion, he had prevented Lin Feng from meeting Meng Qing, Lin Feng wasn’t able to enter the room where Meng Qing and She Qiong were fighting.
Besides, after the illusion stopped, Lin Feng and She Qiong started fighting. When She Qiong seemed to have the advantage, the old man hadn’t intervened, When Chu Zhan Peng joined the battle and attacked Lin Feng by surprise, the old man didn’t act. The old man only took action when he saw that She Qiong was about to die. He was playing with Lin Feng the entire time, because he was supporting She Qiong. The situation had now drastically changed and at that moment, Lin Feng had the power, the old man’s life was in his hands, so would he let the old man live? Impossible!
The old man sighed, he felt regret from the bottom of his heart but there was no cure for regret.
“I hate my own foolish actions, I thought about the gains from interfering with a rising genius, unfortunately, I was just fooling myself.” Sighed the old man. He then slowly closed his eyes and said: “Let me die in peace.”
“Alright, I will give you that.” Lin Feng slightly nodded and raised his hand, a black flame started to burn, it released threads of deadly energy into the air.
Lin Feng’s hand shook and the grim fire landed by the old man’s heart. In a flash, the deadly energy spread across the defenceless old man’s chest. The old man’s facial muscles twitched and immediately after, his head fell limply towards his chest as he stopped moving. However, the grim fire continued burning his body into nothingness.
A cultivator of the fifth Xuan Qi layer was dead! And on top of that, he was sent from the Imperial City.
The crowd sighed, just how many strong cultivators had died today? Ling Tian, She Qiong, Chu Zhan Peng, Chu Qing and the old man, these were only the few that were killed by Lin Feng.
The fire kept burning across the old man’s body as the colourful ribbons returned to their owners. At that moment, a ring which was diffusing pallid lights appeared in the air in front of Lin Feng which surprised him.
Lin Feng stretched his arm out and grabbed the ring.
The old man had broken through to the fifth Xuan Qi layer and was from the Imperial City, there were probably lots of treasures and wealth that had accumulated over a long time in that ring.
After that, Lin Feng turned around and looked at the mysterious woman. He looked perplexed, he still didn’t understand why she was helping him, and why did he have the same feeling of closeness whenever he looked at her?
