Chapter 8 Escort
"I had thought Shi Ningmeng must have already left, but unexpectedly, she got injured again."
"It must have been someone from the Ning Family."
"Her tender body, soft as jade, lay in his arms."
"Yet Lin Feng had no amorous thoughts."
"He picked up Shi Ningmeng, then returned to the room."
"Shi Ningmeng had a wound on her chest."
"Where was the time to consider the propriety between men and women now?"
"He ripped open Shi Ningmeng's clothes."
"Lin Feng had no other thoughts, just to heal Shi Ningmeng's injuries with his mana, carefully flowing from the wound into Shi Ningmeng's body, while Divine Sense attached itself to the mana."
"The needle missed her heart by half a centimeter."
"Seeing the needle-shaped magic treasure embedded in Shi Ningmeng's body, Lin Feng couldn't help but gasp."
"Shi Ningmeng was quite lucky."
"He used his mana to protect Shi Ningmeng's heart."
"Then he gently pushed on Shi Ningmeng's back with his right hand."
"Pfft."
"The needle-shaped magic treasure was immediately expelled."
"Lin Feng quickly stopped the bleeding for Shi Ningmeng, then took out a Heaven Rank Healing Pill, 'Life-saving Pill,' and fed it to her."
"Shi Ningmeng lay weakly in Lin Feng's arms, breathing lightly."
"Lin Feng helped Shi Ningmeng get dressed."
"About a quarter of an hour later, Shi Ningmeng finally woke up."
"Seeing her wound properly dressed, Shi Ningmeng's pretty face turned incredibly sour—wasn't that to say she had been seen naked by that guy?"
"She hadn't allowed him to rip her clothes to treat her wounds."
"Shi Ningmeng glared furiously at Lin Feng."
"Just as she was about to say something, Lin Feng spoke first, 'I didn't touch you, and your wounds needed immediate attention; otherwise, you would have been dead by now!'"
"Hmph."
"Shi Ningmeng swallowed what she originally intended to say and ultimately just snorted softly."
"There's a blood stain here, they must be hiding around."
"Just then, a voice came from outside."
"Shi Ningmeng's face turned extremely pale, a look of horror on her features."
"She knew that once she was caught."
"She would undoubtedly die."
"Ning Hanshuang, that woman, is absolutely ruthless."
"Don't worry, I'll go check it out," Lin Feng said as he looked at Shi Ningmeng."
"Shi Ningmeng was lost in a daze."
"Looking into Lin Feng's eyes, for some reason, she found herself calming down."
"That man seemed to convey a sense of security."
"This feeling."
"Made Shi Ningmeng's heart race, her cheeks turning pink."
"..."
"Stepping outside, Lin Feng saw more than a dozen cultivators rushing into the yard."
"These people from the Ning Family."
"Lin Feng recognized their attire."
"Young man, have you seen an injured woman here?" one of the cultivators coldly said.
"I haven't seen her."
"Lin Feng replied indifferently."
"'Lying? There's clearly blood outside. Search, and if we find her, you're dead, kid,' the cultivator said with a vicious smile."
"Then, more than a dozen cultivators rushed towards the room and the yard."
"Lin Feng's expression was indifferent, 'How dare you search my residence? You've committed a capital offense, and no one can save you now.'"
"As he finished speaking, Lin Feng raised his right hand."
"With a gentle flick."
"From his fingertips."
"Sword Qi swirled."
"Slash."
"Lin Feng shouted coldly."
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh…"
"A burst of Sword Qi flew out."
"'He dares to fight? He must be guilty, finish him off!' the group coldly shouted."
"More than a dozen cultivators lunged at Lin Feng."
"Their expressions grim."
"In their eyes."
"Lin Feng was alone."
"And they were more than a dozen."
"With such a disparity in numbers."
"Lin Feng was certainly doomed."
"But soon, they realized their mistake."
"The Sword Qi sliced through."
"They couldn't defend against it."
"Sounds of tearing followed."
"One by one, bodies were ripped apart."
"More than a dozen cultivators."
"All were shredded and died on the spot."
"..."
"Amazing!"
"Shi Ningmeng, hiding by the doorway watching the battle, opened her mouth slightly in shock."
"Only then did she realize that the young man she had inadvertently come across."
"Was such an incredible person."
"In a snap of the fingers, formidable enemies were reduced to ashes."
"What kind of cultivation was that?"
"After entering the room again, Shi Ningmeng looked at Lin Feng with a pleading look, "Young Master Lin, could you take me back to Stone City?""
"Lin Feng slightly furrowed his brow; this Shi Ningmeng really was trouble. Going to Stone City would mean changing his route since Junzi City and Stone City were not in the same direction."
"'I can share with you half of the treasure I obtain,' Shi Ningmeng said, biting her lip."
"What have you obtained?" Lin Feng's heart stirred, and he couldn't help but ask."
"A Holy Medicine that has grown for ninety thousand years," Shi Ningmeng said."
"No wonder."
"Ning Hanshuang was chasing Shi Ningmeng—a ninety-thousand-year-old Holy Medicine was extremely valuable."
"This treasure could extend life by five hundred years, 'Revive the Dead and Regrow Flesh on Bones,' and preserve youth among other miraculous effects."
"Even Eternal Giant level powerhouses, upon knowing this, would pursue Shi Ningmeng."
"'Keep the Holy Medicine.' Lin Feng said."
"Shi Ningmeng's pretty face turned deathly pale instantly, and she muttered, 'Does the young master really have the heart to watch Ningmeng die without lifting a finger?'"
"Lin Feng said, 'I will take you back, but I don't want the Holy Medicine.'"
"Ah?"
"Shi Ningmeng looked at Lin Feng incredulously."
"That was half a Holy Medicine."
"Lin Feng actually didn't want it."
"She was somewhat at a loss."
"Why?" Shi Ningmeng asked incredulously."
"Because I can't bear to see such a beautiful woman die like this," Lin Feng said as he picked up Shi Ningmeng and walked towards the Beast Carriage."
"Shi Ningmeng wrapped her arms around Lin Feng's neck, feeling surprised, happy, and shy."
