After the banquet ended, everyone began to disperse.
While Lin Feng was chatting with Huang Shilan, he smiled and said, "I have something that I need to discuss with City Lord Huang. Is there a quiet place for us to talk?"
"What is it? Why do you need to talk alone? " Huang Linger frowned slightly.
She didn't seem to like the idea of Lin Feng being alone with her sister.
Huang Lei said, "Linger, the captain naturally has something important to say. Don't cause trouble."
"Hmph." Huang Linger glared at Huang Lei.
Beside them, Wu Yangtian also looked at Lin Feng, his eyes flickering with coldness.
He was becoming more and more suspicious of Lin Feng.
"Alright, come with me." Huang Shilan nodded and left with Lin Feng.
…
Huang Shilan brought Lin Feng to a guest room and smiled, "Lin Gongzi, what important things do you have to say to me?"
Lin Feng smiled and said, "I have a good relationship with Huang Lei and Linger. City Lord Huang, please don't call me Lin Gongzi. It sounds very awkward. Just call me Lin Feng."
Huang Shilan smiled and said, "Then don't call me City Lord Huang. How about you call me Big Sis Shilan?"
"How could I not obey?" Lin Feng smiled.
Huang Shilan said, "Lin Feng, what you want to talk to me about in private should be very important, right?"
Huang Shilan looked at Lin Feng with a burning gaze.
Huang Shilan actually admired Lin Feng very much.
Huang Shilan had shown excellent cultivation talent since she was young. At the age of ten, she had followed her father and grandfather to war all over the world. She had stayed in the army for twelve years, so she was someone who had experienced countless life and death situations. She worshipped heroes.
Old Marshal Huang had always wanted to arrange a marriage for Huang Shilan, but she had always rejected him.
That was because she didn't like those people.
Until he heard about Lin Feng.
Alone, he chased after hundreds of ferocious beasts and beastmen soldiers for hundreds of miles. He fought a bloody battle and killed the blood-robed beast tamer.
Huang Shilan also wanted to know such a heroic figure.
When Huang Shilan saw Lin Feng, she saw that he was so handsome, confident and at ease. He was also a young hero. Huang Shilan's heart was pounding.
However, after so many years, she had experienced a lot of things, so she would not easily express her feelings.
What Lin Feng wanted to talk about was naturally the collusion between Wu Yangtian and a demonic cultivator.
But!
Lin Feng had no evidence, and Wu Yangtian was the Deputy City Lord of Fallen Moon City. During the war twenty years ago, Wu Yangtian's father was the highest ranking general of Zhen Wu Country who had sacrificed himself. Back then, Wu Yangtian's father was the first general under the Northwest Marshal and was highly regarded. During the chaos of the battle, he had blocked an arrow for Old Marshal Huang and died during the breakout.
Therefore, Old Marshal Huang had raised Wu Yangtian like his own grandson.
With the deep relationship between the Huang family and the Wu family, Lin Feng had no evidence to prove that Wu Yangtian was colluding with a demonic cultivator. Even if he had evidence, he would have to be very careful.
If he wasn't careful, he would invite trouble to himself.
Lin Feng deliberated for a moment before saying, "When I came here, I saw a demonic cultivator in the mountains outside the city."
"A demonic cultivator?" Huang Shilan was shocked.
She then said angrily, "A demonic cultivator is actually so arrogant as to infiltrate Fallen Moon City?"
This time, the Beastman Empire had unilaterally broken the ceasefire agreement with Zhen Wu Country twenty years ago because of the demonic cultivator's interference.
Huang Shilan naturally hated the demonic cultivator's actions.
Lin Feng said, "A demonic cultivator naturally wouldn't take the risk to infiltrate Fallen Moon City for no reason. I saw someone in Fallen Moon City who was secretly in contact with a demonic cultivator."
"What? There's such a thing? Who dares to secretly collude with a demonic cultivator? "
Huang Shilan's eyes immediately revealed a cold killing intent.
This woman was definitely the kind of person who would kill without hesitation. Twelve years of military life had made her resolute and decisive, unlike ordinary women who were weak and delicate.
Lin Feng thought, 'Who else could it be? It's the Vice City Lord, Wu Yangtian. '
Of course, he wouldn't say this out loud.
Lin Feng said, "The night was dark, so I didn't see clearly. However, I think it should be someone with some status. Otherwise, a demonic cultivator wouldn't risk coming to Fallen Moon City for a nobody."
Huang Shilan nodded and said, "How hateful. Someone actually colluded with a demonic cultivator. These demonic cultivators secretly manipulated the Beastman Empire to attack Zhen Wu Country. Colluding with a demonic cultivator is a crime of treason. No matter who it is, as long as I find out who it is, I will definitely put them to death."
Said Lin Feng. "You have to be extremely careful with some military secrets. You also have to be extremely careful when dealing with letters. Don't let the spy take advantage of any loopholes. I have the feeling that the spy will soon reveal himself."
"I will send people to keep an eye on him. If this spy makes any movements, we will definitely notice!"
Huang Shilan said.
Lin Feng nodded. He had already done everything he could. Huang Shilan was able to become the City Lord of Fallen Moon City at such a young age. Obviously, it wasn't just because of her ancestors. She was also very strong.
Since Huang Shilan had already strengthened her vigilance, it wouldn't be easy to hide anything from Huang Shilan if Wu Yangtian really did make any movements. If Huang Shilan really had something on Wu Yangtian, with Huang Shilan's abhorrent personality, even if Wu Yangtian had a very deep relationship with the Huang family, Huang Shilan wouldn't be merciful.
"Since I've already told you everything, I won't disturb you any longer. Lin Feng will take his leave."
Lin Feng cupped his fists.
Huang Shilan said, "I'll see you out."
Suddenly, Huang Shilan's body slightly swayed, as if she was about to fall to the ground. Her face became extremely pale.
Lin Feng hastily supported Huang Shilan.
On that day, Huang Shilan wasn't wearing any armor. She was wearing a snow-white dress. She looked extremely beautiful. Lin Feng put his arm around Huang Shilan's waist and pressed his body against hers. He could smell the delicate fragrance of Huang Shilan's body.
"How cold! Why is your body so cold?" Lin Feng wasn't distracted because he had discovered that Huang Shilan's body was extremely cold. She was as cold as ice.
"Quick, help me take out a pill." Huang Shilan's face was extremely pale. She weakly took out a porcelain bottle.
"There's a Raging Flame Pill inside. It can help suppress the cold poison in my body," said Huang Shilan weakly. Said Huang Shilan weakly. She leaned her head against Lin Feng's neck.
Even though Lin Feng hadn't formally studied medicine with the Fire Qilin, he had some understanding of some pills. The Intense Flame Pill was a type of extremely hot Yang pill. If a person took too many of those pills, their meridians would be severely damaged, and they could even become a cripple. Obviously, Huang Shilan had been using the Intense Flame Pill to suppress the cold poison in her body. However, the Intense Flame Pill wasn't able to remove the cold poison. On the contrary, it was damaging her meridians. Each time the Intense Flame Pill broke through the suppression of the cold poison, it would erupt again, and it would be even more terrifying than before.
