Chapter 243: External Force Is, After All, External Force

Mo Hu could no longer hold back and lunged toward Lin Feng; with every punch he threw, a translucent tiger head appeared on his fist, accompanied by the roar of a tiger.

However, Mo Hu's offensive did not cause any harm to Lin Feng; after Lin Feng knocked him flying, he destroyed all the remaining stone pillars.

Consequently, the Spirit Gathering Array completely collapsed.

As a result, the Flesh Puppets that were still alive could not even maintain the realm of a Martial King, and they quickly dropped to the Martial Venerable realm; even the Martial Venerable realm itself was tottering!

"Do you see, Mo Hu? This is the consequence of relying on external forces! One's own strength is the foundation; external forces are always just external forces, not your own power!"

As Lin Feng spoke, he raised his hand and waved it, and streaks of True Qi shot out like blades.

Without the strength of a Martial King, those Flesh Puppets could not withstand Lin Feng's attacks at all, and in an instant, they were all killed by Lin Feng!

In this way, only Mo Hu remained.

"Su Mingyue, why aren't you making a move yet!"

Mo Hu roared as he looked toward Su Mingyue, but Su Mingyue stood there without moving.

"What do you mean by that? You want my fiancée to help you deal with me? Could it be..."

Lin Feng's expression changed, and he secretly thought to himself that something was wrong.

Could it be that on the way here, Mo Hu had also turned Su Mingyue into one of those Flesh Puppets?

If that were truly the case, things would be troublesome!

But after turning his head to glance at Su Mingyue, Lin Feng discovered that Su Mingyue was standing there with a blank expression, showing no intention of obeying Mo Hu's command at all.

"This... how is this possible? Did my Puppet Technique fail?"

Mo Hu looked at Su Mingyue in disbelief, unable to understand why this was happening!

"You wanted to turn my fiancée into a puppet to ambush me at a critical moment? Mo Hu, you really are insidious, but I'm afraid you didn't know that my fiancée is no ordinary person; she, like me, possesses a special bloodline, so your Puppet Technique will have no effect on her!" Lin Feng said coldly.

"A special bloodline, this..."

Mo Hu was now so panicked that he had lost his composure.

All the Flesh Puppets had been killed by Lin Feng, and even the Spirit Gathering Array had been destroyed by Lin Feng.

Moreover, the trump card he had laid in ambush—Su Mingyue—had actually failed!

He was truly at his wit's end now, with no more trump cards left to use!

"You have no more tricks? If you have no more tricks, then die!"

Lin Feng tapped his toes on the ground and approached Mo Hu rapidly like a ghost, leaving behind streaks of afterimages in the air.

Mo Hu was finally afraid; a look of terror appeared in his eyes, and he shouted loudly: "Heavenly Demon Disintegration Great Art!"

Bright red flesh and blood fell off Mo Hu's body and actually exploded in the air like High-Explosive Grenades, with bone fragments mixed within.

Lin Feng's forward momentum was immediately blocked, and he had to raise his arms to protect his face.

By the time the aftermath of the explosion finally faded, Lin Feng could no longer see any trace of Mo Hu.

"He escaped again, this guy..."

Lin Feng clenched his fists, his killing intent biting and cold.

Only then did Su Mingyue finally dare to approach; she hurried over and asked, "Lin Feng, where is that guy?"

"He ran away. He was no match for me and used a Martial Skill that consumes a great deal to escape from here; he should be severely injured by now," Lin Feng said.

Su Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Feng turned his head and looked at Su Mingyue with great concern, asking, "What did he do to you just now?"

"That guy forced me to eat a bug. I don't know what kind of bug it was either, I'm so scared..." Su Mingyue's face was pale, and her voice trembled as she spoke.

Lin Feng immediately grabbed Su Mingyue's hand, and pure True Qi surged out, flowing throughout Su Mingyue's body.

Before long, under the influence of Lin Feng's True Qi, Su Mingyue began to retch and finally vomited out a half-dead bug.

"Mind-Confusing Gu!"

Lin Feng widened his eyes, a look of shock appearing on his face.

This little bug was a type of Gu insect called the Mind-Confusing Gu; once it enters the human body, it follows the blood into the brain, thereby controlling the person's thoughts.

This was how the Mind-Confusing Gu got its name.

Lin Feng now understood what Mo Hu's Flesh Puppet Martial Skill was all about; it turned out he relied on the Mind-Confusing Gu to control his puppets!

"Mingyue, it's fortunate that you have the Heavenly Phoenix Bloodline, otherwise things would have been truly difficult," Lin Feng said with lingering fear.

"Do you mean that I would have been controlled by this bug?" Su Mingyue asked.

"Yes, this is a type of Gu insect called the Mind-Confusing Gu, and it is extremely vicious. But Mo Hu didn't expect you to have the Heavenly Phoenix Bloodline; the Mind-Confusing Gu was suppressed by the Heavenly Phoenix Bloodline as soon as it entered your body, which is why it had no effect on you," Lin Feng explained with a smile.

Knowing that she had walked back from the gates of hell, Su Mingyue suddenly felt a sense of surviving a disaster.

"Lin Feng, you're hurt..." Su Mingyue said.

"These minor injuries of mine are nothing; they are just flesh wounds," Lin Feng said dismissively.

"We... let's go back quickly, I'll help you treat them," Su Mingyue said anxiously.

"Mm."

Lin Feng nodded and carried Su Mingyue toward the center of Jinling City.

Returning to Shuiyuntian Villa, Lin Jingying and Lin Wei were relieved to see that Su Mingyue was safe and sound.

As for Lin Feng, the two of them were not too worried, as Lin Feng's strength was well-established.

"Great, you're finally back," Lin Wei let out a long breath, looking relaxed.

Lin Jingying asked, "Who was the person who attacked you? Mo Hu from the Hidden Demon Sect?"

"Yes, it was that guy. I have to say, people from the Hidden Demon Sect are indeed difficult to deal with; even I suffered a small loss," Lin Feng said.

But then Lin Feng added with a smile, "However, that guy was injured even more severely; he almost died at my hands."

"It's a pity we couldn't finish him off," Lin Jingying said.

After a pause, Lin Jingying said again, "If you can help me get through my Weakness Period, Junior Brother, then I can be of help to you."

Lin Feng immediately felt like he had a massive headache.

Su Mingyue is still right here, so could you please stop making things difficult for me!

Lin Feng thought to himself, and without waiting for Lin Jingying to say anything more, he directly refused her request: "Let's talk about it later, I don't have time right now."

"You really have forgotten your senior sister now that you have a wife."

Lin Jingying glanced at Su Mingyue with dissatisfaction, feeling sour in her heart.

"This disturbance can be considered over; Senior Sister, Lin Wei, you two go back and rest, there is no need for you to worry about Mingyue and me," Lin Feng said.

Lin Wei nodded obediently and then left the place, and while Lin Jingying did not seem to intend to leave yet, Lin Feng glared at her, and she turned and left in annoyance.

"Lin Feng, lie down on the bed, I will help you treat your wounds," Su Mingyue said.

"I will have to trouble you," Lin Feng said.
