Chapter 759: Lin Feng's Helplessness

~7 min read 1,235 words

After arriving at the broken edge, Lin Feng promptly threw Cao Ying onto it and then bent down.

"This is my first time; I heard from other elders in the clan that it can be a bit painful, so remember to be gentle."

Having been thrown by the former onto a soft bed, a flash of nervousness flickered in Cao Ying's crimson eyes, and she then looked up at the figure swooping down from above and said.

"I'll try my best."

Lin Feng's voice was somewhat hoarse as he uttered a word, then his blood‑streaked eyes swept over Cao Ying's delicate body wrapped in a long skirt.

Immediately after, he extended his palm, turning into a series of afterimages, swiftly stripping all the garments from Cao Ying's body.

After that, he shattered his own clothing and crouched down.

After a bout of turmoil, Lin Feng embraced Cao Ying's fair, tender body, savoring the previously enthralling sensation.

And after a day's battle, he realized that the reputation of this Cao family enchantress was no empty title.

That bewitching figure could perhaps only be rivaled by colorful scales.

Of course, this doesn't mean his other wives are inferior; they simply possess different charms.

"I'm very curious—when Xiao Yan sent people to ambush and you caught them instead, why did you let him go? If you had directly killed Xiao Yan, a 'cut first, report later' move, my teachers probably wouldn't have hunted you down so desperately, right?"

After resting a moment in Lin Feng's arms, Cao Ying's breathing steadied slightly, and she, curious, lifted her head and asked.

She had always been extremely curious about the former's earlier choice.

However, because their relationship hadn't been particularly close before, she never found an opportunity to ask.

Now the two not only meet candidly, but have become so close that they are practically overlapping.

Therefore, after recovering for a while, she couldn't help but start asking.

"I don't know whether the three heads of Xiao Dan Tower would hunt me down, but if Xiao Yan had been slain by me back then, a certain mad woman would definitely have hunted me."

As he spoke, Lin Feng also gave a wry smile.

Although now he really wants to kill that guy Xiao Yan.

But if he does that, that woman Gu Xun'er would go mad upon hearing Xiao Yan's death, and he couldn't handle that.

Even though the Ancient Clan might not directly dispatch other strong ones to kill him, a single Gu Xun'er hunting him would already render him helpless.

After all, if he dared to strike back and kill the other side, he would likely be slain by an Ancient Clan strongman lurking in the shadows before he could kill that woman.

And if he doesn't act, letting Gu Xun'er kill him.

Then that would be no different from the previous option; it's just that the killer would be different.

"Mad woman?"

Hearing the former's explanation, Cao Ying's still lingering charming face instantly showed a hint of confusion.

She then recalled the mysterious woman who, not long after Xiao Yan was imprisoned, stormed into Xiao Dan Tower in a rage under a strongman's escort.

At that time, her teacher had told her that woman was Xiao Yan's girlfriend.

But when she asked about her specific background, she received no answer.

"Could it be that Xiao Yan's girlfriend's family is so powerful that you were wary of that guy's girlfriend and didn't dare to act?"

Thinking of this, Cao Ying furrowed her brows tightly and said.

When she was at Xiao Dan Tower, she often interacted with Lin Feng and knew that this guy's nerve was boundlessly huge.

Yet that mysterious woman's background is what makes Lin Feng so apprehensive.

Clearly, her background must far exceed human imagination.

"That woman's family influence is not merely strong; it's vast beyond measure!"

Seeing the former's curious expression, Lin Feng smiled wryly and continued: "If Xiao Dan Tower were to go all‑out war with that woman's family now, I estimate it wouldn't even take a day before Xiao Dan Tower is completely erased from this world."

Upon hearing this, a hint of disbelief flashed across Cao Ying's pretty face.

But then she seemed to recall something and slowly said: "Could that woman be a person from some ancient power?"

Thinking of that ancient race that has persisted for countless years, her tone grew extremely solemn.

After all, being well‑born, she knows a bit about that ancient power.

Regarding that force that has stood atop the Dou Qi Continent for thousands, even tens of thousands of years, she cannot afford to disregard it.

"That woman is called Gu Xun'er, born of one of the ancient seven tribes, the Ancient Clan. As for her father, he is the Chief of the Ancient Clan, one of the world's top peak cultivators."

Lin Feng didn't hide anything and directly revealed Gu Xun'er's background.

He didn't know whether Cao Ying would be scared away after learning Gu Xun'er's identity.

But he was clear that if the former wasn't on the same page as him, keeping her nearby would only bring endless trouble.

"What?!"

Hearing this, Cao Ying didn't even bother whether she was clothed.

She straightened up, eyes filled with disbelief, staring at Lin Feng.

Regarding the Ancient Clan, he had also heard of them; their influence almost spans the entire Eastern Central Plains.

Although she didn't know exactly how many strong ones exist within the Ancient Clan.

But from the fact that the other side alone occupies a quarter of the Central Plains without provoking public outrage, one can glimpse a bit.

Then she looked at Lin Feng oddly, chuckling lightly: "But you really are something, offending that lady of such power yet not being terrified, actually feeling so relaxed."

"Relaxed?"

Hearing that, Lin Feng smiled wryly, shook his head, and his gaze swept over the former's blood‑pumping white jade‑like body, saying: "I'm not relaxed now; I'm just using the Grand Void Ancient Dragon as a backing, temporarily deterring them."

"If not, that woman might coddle some well‑connected elders in the clan. I'm just a tiny ant of a Star Dou Zun; I could vanish from the Dou Qi Continent in an instant."

After all, being familiar with the plot, he knows well that a Star Dou Zun is highly respected externally.

Among the ancient seven tribes, at most they can only bully the low‑bloodline descendants.

In the original work, even the not‑particularly outstanding Lingquan, whose temperament and bloodline aren't exceptional, could reach Dou Zun Realm in his early twenties.

As for those with even higher bloodline concentration, there's no need to look further.

And the most terrifying thing is that, for geniuses of this level, those ancient races can produce a batch every so often.

At the same time, cultivators who have reached the Dou Zun Realm basically have lifespans of several hundred years.

With such accumulation, who knows how many Dou Zun-level cultivators are stored within those Dou Emperor families.

Not to mention other strong ones, just having a few more of these Dou Zun cultivators could literally wear him to death.

"Then, if that's the case, you and that Gu Xun'er—doesn't that mean nobody can do anything to each other in this lifetime?"

Hearing Lin Feng mention the Tai Xu Ancient Dragon Clan, Cao Ying's pink lips twitched slightly, and she said speechlessly.
