Chapter 71: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes
Yet, the next moment, Lin Feng's body suddenly turned into a cannonball.
Ye Yuanshan only felt a terrifying gust of wind coming from his right side, and then a black shadow brushed past his shoulder and charged into the crowd.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Lin Feng moved as if in an empty space; with one punch, the bodies of three men in black exploded instantly.
The shock brought by that visual impact left everyone present petrified.
Chirp! Chirp! Chirp! Several Silver Needles shot out, piercing through the bodies of seven or eight men in black.
One by one, they stared at that black shadow in terror.
"This kid is also a Grandmaster!"
"Impossible? How old is he?"
A killer swallowed his saliva in shock; in just over thirty seconds, dozens of killers in black had been knocked to the ground, leaving a trail of death and injury.
At this moment, the look in the one-eyed man's eyes finally changed.
Ye Qinghan opened her mouth in surprise, her breathing seemingly coming to a halt.
This was her first time seeing Lin Feng display his true strength; she had previously always felt that Lin Feng was prone to exaggeration and had even mocked him as a rustic bumpkin.
Never did she expect that he would resolve the killers of the Viper Mercenary Group in just a few moves!
This was simply a one-sided slaughter!
"Sir, this... this kid seems to be Lin Feng!"
What? The one-eyed man was suddenly stunned, his eyes staring at Lin Feng in horror.
This kid is Lin Feng!
No wonder his strength is so formidable.
Isn't he supposed to be at the Su Family? Hongzhen took so many people to the Su Family to find him, yet there hasn't been a single message since.
And now that Lin Feng has appeared here, a terrifying thought suddenly emerged in the one-eyed man's mind.
"Impossible, Hongzhen is a High-level Grandmaster, how could she not handle this kid!"
"Kid, the Su Family is in trouble, yet you dare to appear here; do you want the members of the Su Family to die?" the one-eyed man probed.
It would be one thing if Lin Feng hadn't gone to the Su Family, but if he had, it meant that the people there had already been dealt with by Lin Feng.
"Heh, I know what you are thinking!"
"I planted the Soul-Loss Poison on that woman; this poison makes one's entire body itch unbearably, and in the end, they die in agony amidst festering, resentment, and regret—it is incurable!"
"I think I can let you taste this way of dying as well!"
Lin Feng's cold voice fell into the one-eyed man's ears.
A stormy sea surged in his heart!
Not good, this kid's strength is completely different from what he had imagined.
Escape!
A single word instantly surged into the one-eyed man's mind.
He disregarded everything else, turned around directly, and fled backward; his entire body was completely hidden in the darkness, to the point where even his aura could not be felt.
This was his unique Escape Technique, and it was precisely by relying on this life-saving skill that the one-eyed man had managed to evade the encirclement and suppression of the Dragon Soul several times.
The remaining dozen or so members of the Viper Mercenary Group no longer had any heart for battle.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
They turned around and fled toward the distance as if mad.
Ye Yuanshan gave an order: "Do not let a single one go!"
The three remaining Elders of the Ye Family hurriedly chased after them, while Lin Feng's body also quietly vanished from where he stood.
The one-eyed man's forehead was covered in cold sweat, and he had an ominous premonition in his heart.
The next second, a terrifying aura locked onto him directly.
Lin Feng's large hand suddenly waved toward the void, and the Internal Energy around his body transformed into a Giant Palm Imprint over ten meters long, directly slapping the one-eyed man away.
Pfft! The one-eyed man spat out a mouthful of blood, staring at Lin Feng with extreme terror.
"Why?"
"Kid, why is your strength so strong?"
The one-eyed man struggled, and he suddenly flicked his sleeve, sending a dozen poisonous insects flying out toward Lin Feng.
"Awooo!"
A loud dragon roar erupted from around Lin Feng, shattering the poisonous insects instantly.
Those venoms and poisonous gases were all isolated by his powerful Internal Energy and could not touch his body in the slightest.
The one-eyed man's face turned pale to the extreme.
"Go to hell!" Lin Feng rushed forward and slammed a palm heavily onto the top of his head.
"No!!!"
The one-eyed man's body exploded into a pulp; until his death, he could not fathom why a kid around twenty years old could be so monstrous.
Soon, the Ye Family members finished off the remaining small fry.
Looking at the scene of devastation, Ye Yuanshan let out a deep sigh of relief.
In this battle, the Ye Family suffered heavy casualties; more than half of the elite Martial Artists cultivated over several decades were dead. Only the three Elders of the Ye Family and seven or eight others remained alive.
Ye Yuanshan was heartbroken, and Ye Qinghan, standing to the side, could not stop her eyes from turning red.
"Granddaughter, it's alright now!"
"As long as the green hills remain, there is no need to worry about firewood; your cousin will be here soon!"
"Do not worry, I will definitely have her get to the bottom of this matter!" Ye Yuanshan's face was full of hatred.
"By the way, where is your second uncle?"
"I don't know! I've already sent people to look for him, but I'm worried that my second uncle might have..." Ye Qinghan felt a wave of agony in his heart.
A few years ago, his parents died in an accident, and now, with so many people in the Ye Family dead, if something were to happen to his second uncle as well.
The entire Ye Family would be finished!
Old Master Ye stumbled and nearly fainted; seeing this, Lin Feng hurriedly supported his body.
"The Second Master is a man of great fortune and will surely be protected by heaven. Every time the Ye Family has faced trouble, he has managed to survive it. I believe he will be fine this time too!" the First Elder of the Ye Family comforted Ye Yuanshan.
"Mr. Lin, you have saved our Ye Family once again. I fear the Ye Family will never be able to repay what we owe you in this lifetime!"
Thud! Ye Yuanshan knelt heavily before Lin Feng.
"You are too kind!" Lin Feng pulled him up by his arm.
"Viper is not dead yet; this assassination attempt is not over!"
Lin Feng had obtained location information from Hongzhen; he had to deal with this Viper personally.
Upon hearing the two words "Viper," Ye Yuanshan's heart jolted.
The big boss behind the Viper Mercenary Group is Viper himself; it is said that this person is extremely powerful and his whereabouts are extremely secretive.
Although this attack failed, those people certainly won't give up!
"Mr. Lin, that one-eyed man said that someone paid a huge sum to take my life!"
"These people all took money; someone is directing them to target our Ye Family!"
Ye Yuanshan gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with annoyance and anger.
"Think carefully, have you offended anyone over these years?" Lin Feng reminded him.
"In Jiangbei, the only ones who don't see eye-to-eye with our Ye Family are the Zhao Family; they have always been targeting our Ye Family behind our backs!"
"But those were only minor squabbles!"
"It is absolutely impossible for them to resort to such lethal measures against our Ye Family!"
"I truly cannot think of anyone who would want to drive our Ye Family to their deaths!" Ye Yuanshan's fists dug tightly into his palms.
Inside the top floor of a high-rise building in Jiangbei, several figures sat on a sofa.
"Lord Viper, once that old thing is dead, I will immediately offer up ten percent of my Ye Family's assets!"
"Ten percent?" Viper frowned coldly.
The man on the sofa was so frightened he stumbled, and hurriedly changed his words: "Twenty percent!"
"I want half of your Ye Family's assets!" Viper said indifferently.
His tone carried a hint of unquestionable coldness, and the middle-aged man's face instantly turned pale.
If Ye Yuanshan were here, he would discover that this figure is none other than the missing Ye Shaolong.
