Chapter 132: Finally Safe

Lin Feng again began telling a mythic story.

Once there was a mountain called Yiren.

The mountain ranges on both sides were round yet straight, with graceful curves.

One day, a cultivator surnamed Lin arrived here.

At a glance, he saw a flaw at the end of one of the ranges and decided to repair it.

So he cast a spell to separate the two ranges.

When the ranges opened, a picturesque Valley appeared before his eyes.

At the cliff's edge, a straight fissure glittered crystal‑clear, like jade.

The cultivator surnamed Lin was greatly surprised.

It was a place that had birthed three pet beasts, and its color was astonishingly pure white.

Even more wonderful, no weeds grew around it, and it brimmed with spiritual energy.

The cultivator surnamed Lin had never seen such a beautiful creek Valley, his eyes widened.

It took him a good while before he came to his senses.

He almost forgot the matter at hand.

To mend the flaw in that range, the Mouth‑Holding True Solution technique was the most suitable.

Yet within moments he completed the repair.

After spitting out the blood‑like impurity from his mouth, he considered it a reckoning with the mountain.

The repair process was now finished.

But the cultivator surnamed Lin grew greedy.

Because he was enchanted by the marvelous creek Valley before him.

"Boundless Immortal Lord! I have offended!"..

The cultivator surnamed Lin whispered a Daoist incantation in his mind, then stepped forward to absorb the spirit liquid seeping from the Valley.

The peaks trembled, as if expressing displeasure toward the cultivator: "It would have been enough to repair the sacred mountain; why are you so greedy!"

Yet Lin's will surged, leaving the ranges no room to refuse.

He cast a spell that formed two mighty arms, pressing on the source of the range's power.

Namely on two nearby protruding peaks.

Amid fierce resistance, the cultivator surnamed Lin even heard a plaintive, sobbing voice.

Suddenly, the Valley he was draining surged with a torrent of spring water.

"Damn!"

The cultivator surnamed Lin furrowed his brows and shouted.

The mountain retaliated, spewing filthy spring water.

That's something.

The cultivator surnamed Lin possessed great magical power and a volatile temper.

He wielded his mighty power to flip Jade Mountain, using his arms to brace the two ranges.

Then he summoned a powerful, long‑awaiting evil dragon.

He commanded the dragon, charging fiercely into the Valley ahead.

Jade Mountain let out a wail.

The cultivator surnamed Lin chuckled, directing the dragon in and out, striking Jade Mountain's weak points.

The battle lasted for about half an hour.

In the end, Jade Mountain surrendered, trembling violently for several minutes before finally weakening.

Bei Yiren was shocked by the story Lin Feng told.

She never expected Lin Feng to be so formidable!

Whether mentally or physically, standing before this man made her feel weak and pitiful.

Moreover, she suddenly felt fear toward him.

A myriad of emotions tangled within her, exceedingly complex.

"Now, you can agree that I'm with YuYao and the others, right?"

While carrying Bei Yiren on his back, Lin Feng smiled and said.

Bei Yiren leaned on Lin Feng's back, her body limp and soft, "Um‑um," she murmured twice.

"Speak up! What are you humming!?"

Lin Feng furrowed his brows and said.

Bei Yiren quickly replied, "I'm defeated, spare me! I beg you!"

Lin Feng said, "You haven't answered my question yet."

"You, you're already like this, and you still want to…"

Bei Yiren was at a loss for words for a moment.

Lin Feng chuckled, "Do you think this is rare?"

Bei Yiren fell silent.

She had seen such things many times.

Yet she never imagined she'd have a day like this.

Had she known, she wouldn't have come out this time.

2012 was rumored to be the world's end, and it was probably true.

Isn't this just your own end?

Queen Bei has completely died, becoming a cowardly woman.

Relying, relying, depending on men.

Parents really know how to name…

"Answer the question, okay?"

When Bei Yiren was absent‑minded, Lin Feng frowned again and said.

Bei Yiren hadn't spoken yet when Lin Feng, still frowning, said, "I hate it when people zone out while talking; that's disrespectful to me. What do you think?"

Bei Yiren hurriedly replied, "I—I respect you. What you said… I've seen it many times, but I never expected myself…"

Before she could finish, Bei Yiren's tears fell.

"Then what do you plan to do next?"

Lin Feng asked again.

Bei Yiren thought, of course, to stay far away from you.

But she couldn't say that out loud!

So she quickly said, "I—I'll return to Xiangjiang. If you call me over, I'll come, okay?"

Lin Feng nodded, "Now that's obedient!"

The word "obedient" made a flush spread across Bei Yiren's beautiful face.

At this point Lin Feng realized that Bei Yiren actually suffers from a serious mental illness.

Usually she appears normal and outwardly proud.

In reality? Extremely fragile!

Lin Feng, having studied psychology, naturally understood Bei Yiren's mental state.

He used some methods and subdued her.

Later, when facing others, she remains a queen.

But in front of him, she's just a… obedient Māo ér.

Psychological issues are hard for people to grasp.

Just like Qi Yao.

A person with such guts isn't even afraid of the dead.

Yet she is terrified of cockroaches!

She knows cockroaches aren't formidable; a single finger can crush them.

But upon seeing them, she can't help being scared.

It's completely uncontrollable.

Lin Feng doesn't want to further oppress Bei Yiren's mind.

If he oppresses her again, she'll collapse.

So he brought up the gold matter: "Your brother Bei Yi Feng has already gathered a group of men…"

"Over 500 tons of gold!"

When Lin Feng finished, Bei Yiren was astonished.

That's nearly 30 billion US dollars worth!

After getting to business, Bei Yiren no longer feared Lin Feng as before; with a thoughtful expression she said, "Transporting all that gold out isn't an easy task.

However, this time someone has surrounded me, wanting the Bei family to produce 2 billion US dollars, which must be in league with the local government forces.

Our Bei family isn't easy to provoke either; we can use this incident to cause a big ruckus. Beneath the façade of striking fear into the powerful, it's actually those 500 tons of gold…"

Bei Yiren actually thought the same as Lin Feng.

Being able to become the head of the Bei family, her ability is unquestionable.

"Although you saved me, the loss from this operation is still considerable; we want a ten‑percent share!"

Bei Yiren set the condition.

"Ten percent."

Lin Feng frowned and said.

Ten percent works out to more than a few billion US dollars.

If the story‑telling incident hadn't occurred, Lin Feng certainly wouldn't have agreed.

But now, what about it?

Giving the mother‑in‑law a little money to spend is nothing!

Bei Yiren smiled faintly, "Fine! It's settled then!"

Lin Feng reminded, "First find the gold. It's been decades; what if it's already gone?"

Bei Yiren was momentarily stunned, then in a comforting tone said, "You're lucky; it won't be!"

Unnoticed, the border line arrived.
