Chapter 142: Strike First!

Lin Feng felt a start in his heart and hurriedly said, "Senior Sister, there is no need for that. I am actually not interested in the position of Dragon Soul Hall Master, nor do I want to be any Pillar of the Nation. Right now, I only want to take revenge for our Lin Family."

"And what about after you take revenge?" Chu Jinghong asked.

"After revenge... uh, perhaps I will travel across all the waters and mountains, living freely and unfettered," Lin Feng said, scratching his scalp.

"How can that do!"

Chu Jinghong glared at Lin Feng in annoyance, and furthermore, she knocked a knuckle against Lin Feng's head, knocking him dizzy and making his ears ring.

If it had been an ordinary person, they might have been knocked to death by Chu Jinghong directly!

"You possess the Divine Dragon Bloodline and have even cultivated the Immortal Divine Dragon Body, yet you actually want to live a carefree life alone. Do you have no shame! As the saying goes, with great power comes great responsibility. In the future, you will sooner or later have to take up the mantle for me!"

"Do you want to leave the responsibility of guarding the Dragon Kingdom on the shoulders of a woman like me forever? Junior Brother, you must have grand ambitions!"

Chu Jinghong said with a pained expression, her face full of disappointment that he would not live up to her expectations.

Lin Feng smiled bitterly repeatedly and could only say, "Alright, alright, alright, I promise you."

"Just promising isn't enough; you must work hard and definitely achieve it in the future!" Chu Jinghong said with a resonant and forceful tone.

"I know, I will definitely achieve it," Lin Feng said.

Seeing that Lin Feng had taken her words to heart, Chu Jinghong finally revealed a satisfied smile.

"I am leaving; I will wait for you to come find me."

After saying this, Chu Jinghong flew up, leaped out of the window, and landed lightly on the armed helicopter.

As the cabin door slowly closed, the armed helicopter moved rapidly away, soon turning into a small black dot.

Just as Lin Feng emerged from the Jinghan Hotel, his cell phone ringtone suddenly sounded.

The call was from Su Mingyue. As soon as Lin Feng answered, her anxious voice came through the phone: "Lin Feng, are you okay? Where are you now?"

"Don't worry, I'm fine. I've already returned to the city center," Lin Feng said with a smile.

Recalling what happened at the Jinghan Hotel last night, Lin Feng suddenly felt a bit guilty.

He was clearly engaged to Su Mingyue and would be entering the halls of marriage before long, yet now he had not only consummated his relationship with his Eldest Senior Sister but also with his Third Senior Sister.

What if Su Mingyue found out?

The more Lin Feng thought about it, the more annoyed he became, so he simply stopped thinking.

As the saying goes, there is a road before the cart reaches the mountain, and a boat will naturally straighten when it reaches the bridge. There was no point in worrying too much now; he would deal with future matters when they came!

"Are you still at the Tiandi Building Hotel?" Lin Feng asked.

"Yes, I am here. I am so scared; I was afraid something happened to you..." Su Mingyue said, trembling with fear.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen to me. The only ones something will happen to is the Zhao Family," Lin Feng said.

"How is the Zhao Family now?" Su Mingyue pressed.

"There is no longer a Zhao Family in Jiangbei City," Lin Feng replied.

As soon as Lin Feng said this, Su Mingyue was so shocked she almost couldn't hold her phone!

In just a few short days, the news that the Zhao Family had colluded with the Hidden Demon Sect and had subsequently been wiped out in its entirety acted like a bombshell, detonating across all of Jiangbei City!

The news industry, the business world, and the political circles of Jiangbei City... almost everyone was stirred up!

But regardless, the Zhao Family was gone. All of the Zhao Family's assets were confiscated; the cash flow was directly deposited into the Dragon Soul Public Treasury, and the real estate was sold off, also gradually flowing into the Dragon Soul Public Treasury.

The Zhao Family had become history!

However, the fact that Lin Feng and Chu Jinghong, the head of the Eight Great War Gods, were junior and senior siblings did not cause the slightest ripple in Jiangbei City, because the news was strictly sealed!

That night, the only people who knew of the close relationship between Lin Feng and Chu Jinghong were the Four Great War Kings of Dragon Soul and the four marshals and grand marshals including Wei Guofeng, plus Liu Qianxue at most.

How would Wei Guofeng and the others dare to talk nonsense? Otherwise, Chu Jinghong would certainly not let them off.

And the Four Great War Kings would definitely not go around talking; as people in high and powerful positions, they naturally understood the principle that trouble comes from the mouth.

Yang Zhenting and Liu Qianxue dared even less to wag their tongues; involving the number one War God of the Dragon Kingdom, they dared not be anything but cautious in their words and actions!

So until now, only these few people knew of the relationship between Lin Feng and Chu Jinghong; no one else knew at all!

"Mingyue, what exactly is going on?"

"That's right, Mingyue. Didn't you go to the hotel with Lin Feng that night? And you didn't come back all night. Haven't you... haven't you confirmed the relationship yet?"

Su Zhenhe and Chen Yurong flanked Su Mingyue on the left and right, asking incessantly in a jumble of voices.

The Zhao Family was destroyed by Lin Feng's hand, and Zhao Zilong, Zhao Ziyang, and Zhao Haoran all died at Lin Feng's hands, but Lin Feng himself did not make it public, so Dragon Soul tacitly removed Lin Feng from this incident.

Therefore, people now only knew that the Zhao Family had been investigated and dealt with by Dragon Soul according to the law and that the whole family had been wiped out; they did not know that the person who destroyed the Zhao Family was actually Lin Feng!

Su Mingyue was naturally very clear about this point, but she dared not say it.

"I... I wasn't in a good state that night," Su Mingyue said, blushing and stuttering.

Su Zhenhe said angrily, "How could you not be in a good state? What kind of state do you need to do that kind of thing?"

"Could it be that you were on your period? That's not right; I calculated it, your period wasn't at that time," Chen Yurong added.

Su Mingyue was practically dying of embarrassment.

"Oh, Dad, Mom, can you stop asking! This is a matter between Lin Feng and me; why are you managing so much!" Su Mingyue said, both embarrassed and angry.

Su Zhenhe smiled bitterly, "Mingyue, I'm afraid you're reacting too slowly and missing the opportunity. If Lin Feng gets hooked away by another woman, it will be too late for you to regret it."

"Exactly, we are all thinking of you. We don't want to see you fall behind others in the future, miss a good match, and cry your eyes out in the bathroom!" Chen Yurong scolded.

Without waiting for Su Mingyue to say anything else, Chen Yurong said again, "Could it be that Lin Feng looks down on you, and you threw yourself at him only to be rejected?"

As soon as Chen Yurong said this, Su Zhenhe's expression suddenly became very ugly.

Previously, Su Zhenhe had felt that his son-in-law Lin Feng wanted to cling to their Su Family's coattails, but now that he had witnessed the energy Lin Feng possessed, he knew that it was not Lin Feng but they themselves who were the ones clinging to coattails, so he became anxious, fearing he would miss out on a golden son-in-law!

Thus, Su Zhenhe said anxiously, "Mingyue, speak up! Is that it? Does Lin Feng really look down on you?"

"That's not it. Lin Feng isn't that kind of person; he is very good to me. It's just that he had some urgent business that night, which is why I fell short of success," Su Mingyue said, blushing shyly.

"Then you should find him again and get it done as soon as possible!" Su Zhenhe said decisively.

Chen Yurong suddenly said, "By the way, isn't there an auction tonight? You can just use this as an excuse to invite him to attend the auction. By the time the auction ends, it will probably be nearly twelve o'clock, and then you can just naturally go to a hotel..."
