Chapter 182: Almost Capsizing in the Gutter

Seeing Lin Feng's back moving further and further away, Bai Yuhui finally let out a sigh of relief.

Dong Mingle, however, did not appreciate it and said indignantly, "Miss Bai, you shouldn't have stopped me just now; he didn't have the guts to touch me at all!"

Bai Yuhui truly could not hold back anymore and actually cursed, "Bullshit! Do you even know who that person is? Do you know how powerful he is? In his eyes, your Dong Family is nothing, and you, the Young Master of the Dong Family, are no different from a stray dog on the side of the road!"

Perhaps not expecting Bai Yuhui to say such scathing words, Dong Mingle was stunned for a moment.

After a long while, Dong Mingle finally asked, "Miss Bai, who is that man? Could he be some big shot?"

"Did you not watch the news today? His name is Lin Feng. Outside the Jingtai Garden Hotel, he defeated three Heaven Sword Sect Elders single-handedly. He is already a master at the Martial Emperor realm!" Bai Yuhui shouted.

Dong Mingle felt as if he had been struck by lightning; he was shocked for quite a while before finally coming to his senses.

"It was actually him! Miss Bai, why didn't you tell me sooner? If I had known he was so powerful, I would have... I would have..."

"You would have what?" Bai Yuhui asked.

"I would have taken him as my master and studied the Martial Dao!" Dong Mingle said heavily.

"Forget it, you aren't cut out for that. Besides, he doesn't like you; it would be a miracle if he took you as a disciple," Bai Yuhui said, and she rolled her eyes at Dong Mingle.

"That's not necessarily true. I was born with a silver spoon in my mouth and possess countless auras; he will definitely be intrigued and take me as his disciple! Given time, I will be able to surpass him, become the strongest in the world, and stand at the Peak of the Dragon Kingdom!" Dong Mingle said very confidently.

Bai Yuhui was too weak to even refute him, her face wearing an expression of utter despair.

Night fell.

Lin Feng and Lin Wei finished dinner outside and returned to the Shuiyuntian Central Villa.

"Brother, take that piece of jade out and study it now," Lin Wei looked at Lin Feng like a curious baby.

Lin Feng then smiled and took the jade out of his Storage Ring, then channeled his True Qi into it.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the True Qi entered this Black Jade, the thing seemed to come alive; not only did it stick firmly to Lin Feng's hand, but it also began crazily draining the True Qi from Lin Feng's body!

Even Lin Feng's lifeblood was stirred up, surging into it crazily like a floodgate being opened!

Thus, a vortex of mixed golden-red and bright red appeared in Lin Feng's hand; the golden-red current was his Divine Dragon True Qi, while the bright red current was his body's lifeblood!

Lin Feng's expression changed drastically; he wanted to stop the process, but he couldn't stop it no matter what!

Lin Wei also realized the situation was bad at this moment and said in terror, "Brother, are you okay? Your face is so pale, don't tell me... Brother, don't scare me..."

Lin Wei was so scared she was about to cry, but Lin Feng could no longer pay attention to her and could only grit his teeth and say, "Xiao Wei, step back quickly. Don't worry about me, I can hold on!"

Lin Wei knew she couldn't help much and that standing there would only hold Lin Feng back, so she hurriedly retreated and hid in the corner of the villa's first-floor lobby.

And Lin Feng was still gritting his teeth, forcing himself to hold on!

Five minutes passed, Lin Feng's face was deathly pale, and his lips had lost all color.

Ten minutes passed, the True Qi in Lin Feng's body was nearly bottomed out, and his lifeblood had also been consumed to an alarming degree!

Fifteen minutes, Lin Feng was already at the end of his rope, unable to continue!

One must know that Lin Feng was at the Martial Emperor realm; his vigorous True Qi and abundant lifeblood were incomparable to ordinary people, but even so, he could not withstand the devouring of this Black Jade.

What the hell is this thing!

Could it be that he was really going to capsize in the gutter this time?

Lin Feng wanted to call for help and have a few of his senior sisters come to assist, but it was already too late.

But just at this moment, cracks suddenly appeared on the Black Jade, and the next moment it exploded with a bang!

In that instant, all the lights in the lobby went out, and the villa plunged into darkness.

"Brother, are you okay?" Lin Wei asked with a sobbing tone.

The three Divine Dragon Guards on duty in the shadows were also alarmed and all rushed into the villa.

But Lin Feng immediately roared, "You all get out! I am in the middle of cultivation, you are not allowed to enter!"

The three Divine Dragon Guards hurriedly retreated from the villa, and Lin Wei, hearing Lin Feng's voice, finally felt a bit at ease, knowing Lin Feng was not in any serious trouble.

In the darkness, Lin Wei could see nothing.

But Lin Feng opened his Dragon Pupil and could see through the darkness; everything in the lobby was seen clearly by him.

At this very moment, a pale golden figure, like a ghost, floated before him, and it was the image of a woman with a curvaceous figure and a beautiful face.

Though she looked very young, only about twenty-three or twenty-four years old, she exuded an ancient aura, as if she had existed for a very, very long time.

Suddenly, the ghost-like woman opened her beautiful eyes and cast a sharp gaze at Lin Feng.

"Who are you? Where is this?"

Lin Feng did not answer immediately, but instead said to Lin Wei, "Xiao Wei, go back to your room first. Don't worry, I'm fine, it's just a bit of a drain; I'll be fine after resting for a few days."

"Brother, are you not lying to me?" Lin Wei asked, feeling uneasy.

"I'm really fine. Go back to your room first; the lights in the villa are broken, be careful when you go upstairs," Lin Feng said.

Lin Wei finally groped her way toward the second floor in the darkness. Once she entered her room, Lin Feng finally let out a sigh of relief and replied, "My name is Lin Feng, and this is the Shuiyuntian Central Villa."

"Shuiyuntian? Central Villa?"

A look of confusion appeared on the woman's face, and then she asked with some indignation, "I am asking you, what territory is this!"

Lin Feng finally reacted and explained, "This is Jinling."

"What kind of place is Jinling?" the woman asked again.

"A city," Lin Feng said.

"Too small, speak in broader terms!" the woman commanded.

Lin Feng then said, "The place we are in is the Dragon Kingdom!"

"Speak in even broader terms!"

"Asia!"

"Still too small!"

"Earth!"

The woman furrowed her brows and asked, "Earth? Is this not Hailan Star?"

What the hell is Hailan Star?

Is it another name for Earth?

Lin Feng felt very confused and was just about to ask, but the woman shook her head and said, "It seems I cannot get the information I want from you; forget it, asking you is a waste of time."

"Who exactly are you? Are you a human or a ghost right now?" Lin Feng asked.

"My name is Qijue Xuannv; you may address me as Senior Xuannv. As for whether I am human or ghost... my physical body was destroyed, leaving only my divine soul, so I had to reside within that piece of jade to devour the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth and slowly recover. Fortunately, with you replenishing my True Qi and blood essence, my recovery process has accelerated quite a bit," Qijue Xuannv said.

Lin Feng suddenly realized!

No wonder everyone who obtained that piece of jade died in such an inexplicable way.
