NOVEL NEXT Chapter 131
After Old Man Tianji calmed down, Lin Feng began to recount the recent events that had transpired.
Upon hearing that Lin Feng had revealed his identity as the ‘Son of Destiny’, Old Man Tianji couldn’t help but laugh hysterically in anger!
And when he learned of Lin Feng’s current predicament, Old Man Tianji felt a pang of sympathy.
He thought to himself that ever since arriving in the Central Domain, Lin Feng, the Son of Destiny, had been truly miserable!
Of course, his own situation wasn’t much better.
“What do you plan to do next?” Old Man Tianji asked.
“Defect from the sect!”
Lin Feng replied as if it was the most natural thing in the world.
“The sect’s higher-ups are ambiguous in their attitude towards me, and this Ninth Peak is full of lunatics! Staying here is like asking for death!”
Old Man Tianji agreed with this sentiment.But the problem was… if he really defected from the sect, it wouldn’t sound good.
Moreover, after registering one’s blood essence, one’s whereabouts would be detectable no matter where one fled unless the blood slip was destroyed.
“It’s not appropriate to defect directly. Just find an excuse to leave and avoid returning to the sect unless absolutely necessary,” Old Man Tianji suggested.
Lin Feng nodded, then looked lost.
Being new to the Central Domain, he was unfamiliar with the place.
For a moment, he really didn’t know where to go.
“Buddha Temple!” Old Man Tianji said.
Buddha Temple?!
Lin Feng shook his head like a rattle drum, clearly refusing.
He knew that Mu Kui, the fourth true disciple of Ninth Peak, was likely to be at Buddha Temple!
Mu Kui was extremely powerful in combat and likely another lunatic.
Lin Feng didn’t want to be tormented by another madman.
“You must go to Buddha Temple,” Old Man Tianji sighed.
“There you will find Buddhist relics, and these relics are the best items to remove the Ghost Qi from my body! Moreover, when I came to the Central Domain, I calculated that there is a fortune there that belongs to you!”
“Fortune?” Lin Feng looked skeptical.
Originally, Old Man Tianji had said that Jiuyan Sect was also where his fortune lay, but what was the result?
The place was full of lunatics!
“The workings of fate are unpredictable, even to gods and spirits. This Jiuyan Sect is precisely where changes are occurring! Until I fully recover my soul power and can glimpse more into fate, you must not set foot here again! And the farther away you are, the better,” Old Man Tianji explained.
“How much has your soul power recovered?” Lin Feng asked further.
“Only twenty percent. Although the poison pill contained the essence of a hundred ghosts, it also carried a heavy Ghost Qi, which is why my soul was contaminated with it.”
“Then, could you lend me a helping hand in a critical moment?”
“Of course! As long as you don’t mind being contaminated by the Ghost Qi and having your heart devoured by ghostly spirits.”
Lin Feng was speechless.
Before he could even be happy, a bucket of cold water had been poured over him.
He also understood what Old Man Tianji meant.
Now that Old Man Tianji’s soul was tainted, his soul power was naturally impure, containing a lot of Ghost Qi.
Using such soul power to assist him would be like swallowing another poison pill!
However, he wasn’t too worried.
As long as he left Jiuyan Sect, he could stay away from Jiang Chen and those lunatics.
Although there was likely another madman at Buddha Temple, it would be fine if he was careful not to interact with them and not be seduced.
“Alright, tomorrow I’ll find an excuse and head to Buddha Temple!” Lin Feng decided.
The next day.
Jiang Chen was patrolling the mountains in the name of the ‘Hall of Enforcement’ along with a few followers wanting to earn some system rewards.
He arrived at Sword Peak.
“Nephew! Have you come? Come quickly with me into the peak, and let me teach you the Way of the Sword!” Sword Peak’s Master Zhang Lingfeng appeared with a beaming smile.
“I’m here to beat people up!” Jiang Chen flatly refused.
“No rush, no rush,” Zhang Lingfeng’s smile grew even wider.
“After you advance in the Way of the Sword, beating people up will feel even more satisfying!”
Jiang Chen turned immediately and left.
He went to Weapon Peak and had just reached the foot of the peak.
“Nephew! These are two high-quality spirit swords that I’ve forged personally for you! I’ve named them ‘Sensing’ and ‘Reformation’! Take a look, take a good look!” Weapon Peak’s Master Niu Wu laughed heartily.
Jiang Chen’s mouth twitched, and he immediately left once again.
He then went to Beast Taming Peak.
The Master of Beast Taming Peak was named Jin Rou, and she was known in Jiuyan Sect for her explosive temper.
Jiang Chen thought that even if everyone in Jiuyan Sect was mad, this woman should be somewhat normal.
After all, although her appearance was normal, she was muscular and extremely burly, clearly a tough person.
But he was wrong again.
“Jiang Chen, observing your actions, you must detest pomp and circumstance. I’ve long noticed that your gaze towards me is full of meaning. I used to be extremely repulsed, but now I’ve come to understand! If you dare to marry, I dare to wed!” The Iron Barbie in front of him said so.
Despite being taller than Jiang Chen, she was coy, putting on a demure girl’s demeanor.
Jiang Chen was speechless.
His gaze towards Jin Rou was indeed ‘full of meaning’, but it was the look one gives to a strange people!
There was no other implication!
He also knew that Jin Rou had always wanted to get married, but he didn’t expect her to set her sights on him!
Without any hesitation, Jiang Chen turned and ran along with his followers.
Riding her contracted beast, Jin Rou chased after him while shouting, “Jiang Chen, aren’t you trying to do evil? Come at me, I can take it!”
Hearing this, Jiang Chen ran even faster!
Seeing Jin Rou’s relentless pursuit, he even turned back and shouted, “Peak Master Jin, please stop, your defense is too high, I can’t break through!”
……
In the end, Jiang Chen and his followers successfully returned to Ninth Peak.
Before he could even reflect on the events, he saw a plump female disciple, as round as a ball, approaching him.
This girl Jiang Chen remembered. She was a disciple of a certain elder from Ninth Peak.
Although he couldn’t recall her name, he knew this chubby girl was always timid, and every time she saw him, she would ‘roll’ away in fright.
Jiang Chen took a closer look.
He noticed that the chubby girl was still timid with her head bowed deeply, no different from usual.
‘This person should be normal!’ Jiang Chen guessed, nodding his head.
“Haha, chubby Junior Sister!”
He quickly approached her.
“Junior Sister, you better not run around, lest you’ll shake Ninth Peak to its foundations!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Wen, Liu Wu, and the rest of the followers burst into laughter.
When it came to coordination, Jiang Chen and his followers were still very in sync.
And as the mocking and laughter reached her ears, the chubby girl indeed trembled with her fat jiggling, her face reddening, and she instinctively wanted to roll away!
Seeing this, Jiang Chen stepped in front of her.
Having finally met someone normal, how could he let her go?
Today, he was determined to earn some system rewards from this chubby girl!
“Junior Sister, don’t be in such a hurry to leave!”
Jiang Chen said sternly, “You’ve come all this way, yet you don’t speak? Did you not take this Eldest Senior Brother seriously?”
The chubby girl still didn’t respond.
Just as Jiang Chen was about to get tougher…
“Eldest Senior Brother, I have a gift for you, your favorite item…”
The chubby girl finally lifted her buried head while speaking softly and blushing.
A gift? And his favorite item?
Jiang Chen was startled.
Before he could react, he felt something in his hand, and the chubby girl had already run off while covering her face.
Jiang Chen looked down.
It turned out to be an oversized bellyband!
“Who is spreading rumors about me?!”
Throwing the bellyband on the ground, Jiang Chen was furious.
……
At the same time.
Sect’s prison.
“Achoo!”
Lin Mubai, still locked up in the prison, sneezed.
“Eldest Senior Brother must be thinking of me…”
