Chapter 354: The Killer Strikes
Yang Lili glanced at Lin Feng, then lowered her voice and said to Tang Yurou, "I'm telling you, you absolutely cannot tell anyone else, because Lin Feng's identity is a state secret."
"What? His identity is a state secret? Is it really that mysterious?" Tang Yurou said with an expression of disbelief.
"It's true, I'm not lying to you. Originally, even I wasn't qualified to know; my father told me secretly," Yang Lili said.
Tang Yurou then said, "Don't worry, I will absolutely not tell anyone. I swear to heaven."
Yang Lili finally nodded and whispered, "Lin Feng is a Martial Arts Expert at the Martial Emperor level and is the Fifth War King of the Dragon Soul. He has already achieved such things at such a young age; given time, he will inevitably become a War God who protects the nation and become the new Pillar of the Nation."
Hearing Yang Lili's words, Tang Yurou was practically stunned.
A Martial Arts Expert at the Martial Emperor level.
The Fifth War King of the Dragon Soul.
A future Pillar of the Nation.
These words deeply shocked her heart, and a stormy sea had already been stirred up within her.
It was also at this moment that Tang Yurou finally understood how strong Lin Feng was and finally understood why Yang Lili was so relentlessly pestering him.
A man this formidable—let alone having one or two women, even having eight or ten would be normal!
"Are you sure you aren't lying to me?" Tang Yurou asked in shock.
"Would I joke about something like this? This isn't something to play around with," Yang Lili said with a huff.
Tang Yurou then glanced at Lin Feng; the look she gave him had changed, becoming very complex.
A look of reverence even appeared on her face.
In fact, Lin Feng had heard the entire conversation between Tang Yurou and Yang Lili. Although they kept their voices very low, as if whispering, how could Lin Feng, a Martial Arts Expert at the Martial Emperor level, not hear them?
He just couldn't be bothered to pay attention.
Tang Yurou looked at him with a reverent expression, and he noticed it too. If it were any other man, he would surely be floating on air by now.
But Lin Feng felt not a single ripple in his heart.
Because he had seen similar expressions too many times; basically, every woman would involuntarily reveal this change in expression after learning his identity, and he was already used to it.
Time passed quickly, and before they knew it, the concert ended.
Lin Feng's phone vibrated slightly. He took it out and saw it was a message from Lin Jingying.
"Junior brother, are you free tomorrow? I miss you."
Below this sentence was a shy emoji.
Lin Feng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he replied to Lin Jingying: "I'll come see you tomorrow."
Receiving Lin Feng's response, Lin Jingying in the lounge was overjoyed, her cheeks flushed red.
A female pianist who had also performed at the concert walked in. Seeing Lin Jingying's flushed face, looking as if her peach blossoms were in full bloom, she asked curiously, "Star Lin, what's wrong with you? What great good news happened?"
"My boyfriend has come to Binhai City," Lin Jingying smiled.
"What? A boyfriend?"
The female pianist was greatly astonished, her face full of disbelief.
At this very moment, Lin Feng had already left the Sunshine Grand Theater with Yang Lili and Tang Yurou.
The one driving was, of course, Yang Lili. Lin Feng sat in the passenger seat, while Tang Yurou sat in the back.
Lin Feng turned his head to admire the night view outside the car window, while Yang Lili and Tang Yurou chatted and laughed.
Suddenly, Tang Yurou's cheeks flushed slightly.
Because she clearly saw Yang Lili's slender, jade-like hand resting on Lin Feng's thigh, touching it over and over, constantly taking advantage of him.
What a female pervert, Tang Yurou thought to herself.
Suddenly, Lin Feng's expression changed.
The next moment, Lin Feng slammed on the brakes and grabbed Yang Lili's hand, pulling her down onto the seat.
"Get down!" Lin Feng barked.
Although she didn't know what had happened, Yang Lili immediately followed suit, while Tang Yurou froze for a moment before finally reacting, then followed Lin Feng's order to get down.
Almost at the same time, a gleaming Flying Dagger shattered the car window, flew over Yang Lili's head, and then shattered the other window and flew out.
If Lin Feng hadn't reacted extremely quickly to pull Yang Lili down, she would likely have been hit by now!
"This... what is going on?"
Yang Lili's expression changed drastically, her small face turning pale.
"We've been targeted by a killer," Lin Feng said with a frown.
No sooner had Lin Feng finished speaking than another Flying Dagger shot over from the night sky in the distance, shattering the rear window.
Tang Yurou was instantly terrified into letting out a scream, her delicate body trembling repeatedly.
"Staying in the car will only make us targets for attack; we must leave here immediately."
As Lin Feng spoke, he kicked the car door open, scooped up Yang Lili with his left arm and Tang Yurou with his right, and rushed out of the car, while manifesting his Protective True Qi.
In just a few blinks of an eye, Lin Feng had already carried the two women behind a large rock.
Once there, Lin Feng finally let go of Yang Lili and Tang Yurou, but although he let go of them, they did not let go of him.
Whether it was Yang Lili or Tang Yurou, both held him even tighter.
"Lin Feng, I'm so scared..." Yang Lili said with a trembling voice, and even a hint of a sob.
"I... I'm so scared too..." Tang Yurou added.
As a daughter of a wealthy family, Tang Yurou had never encountered life-threatening danger before. Now that the scent of death was rushing toward her, she immediately disregarded the dignity and pride of a wealthy heiress; she truly wanted to throw herself into the arms of the man in front of her and have him protect her.
Lin Feng said irritably, "You two let go of me. With you holding me like this, how am I supposed to deal with the killer hiding in the shadows?"
"But..." Yang Lili said hesitantly.
"Hurry!" Lin Feng commanded.
Only then did Yang Lili finally let go of Lin Feng, and Tang Yurou did the same.
A faint sound of footsteps came from afar; Lin Feng only listened for a moment before saying, "That assassin is creeping over."
Yang Lili and Tang Yurou both turned pale with fright and trembled, a layer of cold sweat breaking out on their backs.
"Hide here and do not make a sound; I will go meet him."
As soon as Lin Feng finished speaking, he darted out from behind the large rock like a phantom, rushing toward the black-clad assassin who was groping his way toward them!
The assassin's reaction was extremely agile; he discovered Lin Feng in an instant, pulled back abruptly, and fired off one gleaming Flying Dagger after another.
These scattered Flying Daggers were highly lethal, and most importantly, they actually possessed the effect of penetrating a True Qi Shield!
As a Martial Emperor level expert, Lin Feng's Protective True Qi was actually pierced through by these Flying Daggers, and as a result, he was struck by several of them!
Bright red blood immediately flowed out from the wounds on his body, and most importantly, Lin Feng could clearly feel a slight sensation of numbness in his wounds.
