Chapter 125: Triggering the Restriction

"It's as if you think that if I don't kill you, your people in the Hidden Demon Sect will let me go," Lin Feng said with a playful expression.

Liu Qianxue asked, "How many Elders does your Hidden Demon Sect have?"

"I just said the Four Great Elders, so naturally there are four Elders. How can you be such a stupid woman!" Xuesha said through gritted teeth.

Liu Qianxue was so angry her nose was crooked; she wanted to give Xuesha a taste of his own medicine.

But Lin Feng still had questions to ask, so she had to suppress the dissatisfaction in her heart.

"What is your standing within the Hidden Demon Sect?" Lin Feng asked.

Xuesha's strength was already very high; although there was still a slight gap compared to Lin Feng, it had taken Lin Feng quite a bit of effort to defeat him.

If Chen Guan of the Hidden Demon Sect was as formidable as Xuesha, then this sect was truly terrifying.

"I am considered a top-tier expert in the Hidden Demon Sect. Those who can firmly suppress me are the Eight Great Protectors; above the Eight Great Protectors are the Four Great Elders, and above the Four Great Elders is our Hidden Demon Sect Master!"

"However, I have only ever seen the Eight Great Protectors and the Left Elder among the Four Great Elders. My rank is not high enough; I have never seen the Sect Master."

Xuesha spoke truthfully and did not hold anything back.

Now, in order to survive, he could no longer care about anything else. Besides, he was not the type of person to be loyal to his organization, so naturally, he was unwilling to die at Lin Feng's hands just to keep secrets.

"Do you have anything else to add?" Lin Feng asked.

Xuesha hurriedly said, "Of course I do. Back then, the Left Elder led the Nether Protector and dozens of puppet death-soldiers to raid your Lin Family and wiped out your entire clan, all to search for a treasure."

Lin Feng was shocked and hurriedly asked, "What treasure?"

"I don't know exactly what treasure it was, but I heard the Left Elder say it was a broken Jade Pendant with an auspicious dragon pattern on it."

Xuesha paused and then said, "By the way, you are not a member of the Lin Family. You were not born to your parents, but were an adopted son they took in. You seem to have the bloodline of an ancient family flowing in you; otherwise, how could I possibly not be your match?"

These two things Xuesha added caused a massive storm to rise in Lin Feng's heart!

The Hidden Demon Sect's target was actually the Jade Pendant his mother had given him!

He was not a member of the Lin Family, but was adopted by his parents, and he possessed the bloodline of an ancient family!

This was simply... Lin Feng could hardly believe it!

But the words of a dying man are good; Xuesha had said everything to save his life, so his words were worth believing—nine times out of ten, they were not false!

"Keep talking, you must know more! I guarantee I won't kill you, tell me everything you know!" Lin Feng commanded, a look of urgency appearing on his face.

Xuesha was overjoyed and hurriedly opened his mouth, saying, "Lin Feng, do you know why you have reappeared in the world for so long, yet the Left Elder has not dealt a lethal blow to you? This is because you..."

Just as Xuesha said this, a series of clicking sounds rang out from within his body, and his remaining wisp of a remnant soul began to swell rapidly like a balloon!

"Careful!"

Liu Qianxue's expression changed drastically, and she hurriedly pulled back.

Lin Feng did not retreat; he had already realized that Xuesha had triggered some kind of restriction. It must have been set by someone within his body to prevent him from leaking secrets.

"Speak quickly!" Lin Feng roared.

Xuesha was in extreme pain and said with difficulty, "The Left Elder actually set this kind of restriction in my body. Could it be that from beginning to end, I was just a pawn... I am not reconciled!"

Bang!

A violent explosion rang out.

Xuesha's final wisp of a remnant soul burst apart, turning into a gale that swept through the surroundings. Lin Feng was too close and had not dodged at all, so his face and hands were cut with numerous wounds, and bright red blood flowed from them.

But to him, these injuries were just trivial scratches; they were of no consequence at all!

With his powerful self-healing ability, it wouldn't take long for them to heal completely!

"Damn it, just a little bit more!" Lin Feng was furious.

Liu Qianxue hurried over and asked, "Lin Feng, are you alright?"

"I'm fine." Lin Feng shook his head.

Liu Qianxue said, "Blood Fiend said so much; that's already quite good. Don't be too disappointed."

"It can only be so."

Lin Feng sighed, a bitter smile appearing on his face.

Lin Feng wiped the blood off his body very casually, and Liu Qianxue saw the wounds on his skin knitting together at a speed visible to the naked eye, which left her deeply shocked.

Just how many secrets was this guy, Lin Feng, hiding?

What level of Martial Artist was he, and why was he so formidable?

"The information Blood Fiend revealed just now involves some of my past, which is very important to me. I hope you can keep it confidential," Lin Feng said, looking at Liu Qianxue.

Liu Qianxue laughed, "What if I refuse to keep it confidential for you?"

"Then I would have no choice but to kill you," Lin Feng said.

"Stop pretending, I know you wouldn't actually do anything to me. But don't worry, I won't tell anyone about your affairs. However, I must report the information Blood Fiend gave about the Hidden Demon Sect's Eight Great Protectors and Four Great Elders to the higher-ups of Dragon Soul," Liu Qianxue said with a smile.

"Many thanks," Lin Feng said.

Afterward, Lin Feng prepared to leave, but Liu Qianxue chased after him and blocked his path.

"I must say, you are really lacking in social graces. I agreed to help you keep your secret, and you only thank me with words?" Liu Qianxue said with deep resentment.

"Then how do you want me to thank you?" Lin Feng asked.

"Treat me to a meal," Liu Qianxue said.

What did this woman mean? Did she have some ideas about him?

Lin Feng looked Liu Qianxue up and down a few times, then said with a straight face, "I already have a fiancée."

"So what if you have a fiancée? Does your fiancée not allow you to treat people to dinner?" Liu Qianxue retorted.

"My point is, I need to keep my distance from other women," Lin Feng said irritably.

Liu Qianxue huffed and said, "Are you afraid I'll pester you? Don't worry, I don't have those kinds of thoughts about you. Don't be so conceited."

"After working for so long, I'm starving. Let's go, let's go, don't dawdle here."

Liu Qianxue urged him repeatedly, and Lin Feng had no choice but to leave with her.

But before leaving, Lin Feng activated his Dragon Pupil once more to scan the entire graveyard.

Confirming that Blood Fiend was truly dead and the Yin-Gathering Array had been completely destroyed, he finally felt at ease.

Half an hour later, Jiangbei Pedestrian Street, at a certain street food stall.

The barbecue stall owner was sweating profusely in front of the grill, and the rich aroma of meat wafted all around.

Liu Qianxue said with a helpless expression, "I'm saying, you are at least the Chairman of Hanhai Group, and also the fiancé of the Su Family's daughter; you don't have to be this stingy, do you, actually treating me to a street food stall?"
