"I have a dagger, take it and kill me!"
Lin Feng and Tuo Qi didn't know which part of the Corner Region they were in. At that moment, they were standing on a precipitous cliff. They were surrounded by luxuriant trees and ancient trees. There were also roars of demonic beasts. However, when Lin Feng arrived, those demonic beasts were crawling on the ground and didn't dare make a sound.
In Lin Feng's hand was a shiny dagger which was twinkling with an evil Qi. Tuo Qi's face turned deathly pale, he didn't dare take the dagger.
"If you can't even pass this test, you can leave. I can't be your teacher." Lin Feng was threatening Tuo Qi which was his weakness.
When Tuo Qi heard Lin Feng, he firmly held the dagger but his hand was still shaking. He didn't dare stab Lin Feng's chest with the dagger.
Said Lin Feng while smiling. Immediately after, a dazzling golden light emerged from his body. It was so dazzling that it made Tuo Qi's vision blur. Immediately after, he saw four identical copies of Lin Feng in front of him. They were all smiling at him.
"Tuo Qi, use your intuition and kill three of them."
At that moment, the four Lin Fengs opened their mouths at the same time which made Tuo Qi's face turn deathly pale. He felt dizzy. Which one of the Lin Fengs was the real one? Which one was the fake one? What if he stabbed the real teacher with the dagger?
Tuo Qi started hesitating again. He couldn't make a decision easily. The more he thought about it, the more he couldn't attack.
Lin Feng knew what Tuo Qi was thinking. It wasn't that Tuo Qi didn't have a mind of his own, it was that he didn't know whether what he was doing was right or wrong. He couldn't make a decision which made people think that he didn't have a mind of his own, including his grandfather Tuo Hanyuan.
"Teacher, I … I can't …" Tuo Qi was shaking his head. His face was covered in a cold sweat. His hand which was holding the dagger was also shaking. He couldn't get over it.
"Tuo Qi, how did your parents die?" Lin Feng suddenly asked this question which surprised Tuo Qi but very quickly, he was furious. His eyes were bloodshot and his body was shaking. He couldn't calm down for a long time.
"They were killed by someone but my grandfather didn't tell me." Tuo Qi clenched his fists tightly, the dagger in his hand also slightly trembled. He really wanted to know who the murderer was, and then take revenge for his parents. Thinking about how he had been alone for so many years, he was filled with fear.
"Tuo Qi, I know that your parents are dead, but you have to kill three of the four of us before I tell you." Said Lin Feng in a deep voice. He wasn't joking at all.
Tuo Qi was stupefied and blankly staring at Lin Feng. Suddenly, a ferocious expression appeared on his face. He roared furiously and took a step forwards. He held the dagger in his hand and pierced it into Lin Feng's chest. Blood splashed into the air and splashed onto Tuo Qi's face. Lin Feng's facial expression was rigid and in the end, he collapsed onto the ground.
"Ah!! Master. " Tuo Qi was astonished, his heart was filled with fear. He was about to help Lin Feng up, but then he heard Lin Feng laugh, "I'm not dead yet, you killed a fake one, you did a good job."
"Master, you're in here?" Tuo Qi looked happy but very quickly, he couldn't smile anymore because he only had three choices left. If he killed the wrong person, he wouldn't have a master anymore.
The remaining three Lin Fengs were all smiling and staring at Tuo Qi. Tuo Qi was furious. Everything was worth it to know that his parents were dead.
Pfff!
Another dagger pierced into Lin Feng's chest and blood splashed everywhere. Another Lin Feng collapsed onto the ground.
"Continue." Said Lin Feng sounding cold and detached. Tuo Qi's eyes were bloodshot. Without hesitation, he stabbed the dagger into Lin Feng's chest again. At that moment, the entire world became deathly silent.
Tuo Qi felt a shiver run down his spine. He had just realized that there were only two Lin Fengs left in front of him. His dagger had already pierced into one of the Lin Feng's chest. He then looked at the Lin Feng whose dagger had pierced into his chest. Tuo Qi panicked and quickly pulled the dagger out.
"You … you …." Lin Feng pointed at Tuo Qi and collapsed onto the ground. He had died with his eyes wide open.
"No, no, teacher, teacher!!" Tuo Qi was lying on the ground and looking at Lin Feng who was covered in blood. He really regretted his decision. Why didn't he think twice before acting? Why didn't he think twice before acting? Why had he been so impulsive?
"I'm sorry teacher, I … I killed you." Tears rolled down Tuo Qi's cheeks. He would never be able to forgive himself.
"Why are you crying? I'm not dead."
Someone tapped Tuo Qi's shoulder. Tuo Qi raised his head and saw that Lin Feng was smiling innocently at him. Tuo Qi's face turned red, he knew that he had made a fool of himself.
"Teacher, you … you're not dead?"
"Bullshit. If you killed me, I would have died. Get up and come back with me."
Lin Feng punched Tuo Qi's head violently. After that, Tuo Qi and Lin Feng flew back. They followed the path they had come from and very quickly arrived in front of the thatched hut.
At that moment, Tuo Qi still didn't understand how Lin Feng had survived. Could it be that the three he had killed were fake and the last one was the real one? But was he really that accurate? If he didn't think carefully, could he have done the right thing?
After thinking for a bit, Lin Feng went back to Tuo Hanyuan's residence. He immediately threw Tuo Qi to the old man and said indifferently: "Master, I cured your grandson's illness."
"Really?" Tuo Hanyuan was astonished. He looked at Tuo Qi's frightened face. He didn't think that Tuo Qi's illness had been cured. Instead, he looked like he had been shocked.
"You can try." Said Lin Feng while smiling. After that, he sat down on the wooden plank and stared at Tuo Qi. Tuo Hanyuan stood up and hastily asked: "Grandson, your teacher wants to form an alliance with the Corner Region, what are you going to do?"
"Me? I …. " Tuo Qi wanted to reply but he was still lost in thought. When he saw Lin Feng's encouraging expression, he suddenly understood why Lin Feng had told him to kill people without hesitation. Besides, he had killed Lin Feng himself. Lin Feng wanted to use his own experience to teach him that sometimes, hesitating and hesitating could lead to negative consequences.
When Tuo Qi thought about that, he was filled with gratitude towards Lin Feng. His teacher had taught him how to be a person and not just how to fight.
"Grandpa, I agree to form an alliance." Said Tuo Qi after hesitating for a second. Then, he nodded confidently.
Tuo Hanyuan didn't look happy or sad, but he continued asking, "Tell me your reason."
"The reason is simple. Lin Feng is my teacher, we're not enemies. Besides, he has many strong cultivators behind him. I don't think he'll be in a disadvantageous position. Besides, he has three incredible treasures. Hehe, if I cooperate with him, I'll be able to get some benefits, right?"
Said Tuo Qi in a serious tone but in the end, he was joking. Tuo Hanyuan didn't think that Tuo Qi was wrong because staying by Lin Feng's side was really beneficial for him.
The only bad thing was that if Lin Feng failed, or if he was defeated by other influential groups, the Corner Region would be in trouble. But in the battle world, everything was risky. If they were worried about risks, they would be like the Corner Region now. If they hadn't met in the Octagonal District, nobody would have paid attention to the Corner Region.
Tuo Hanyuan knew that he wasn't a good leader, so he had to give his grandson a good future. Lin Feng was the kind of person who could make the Corner Region shake the continent.
Tuo Hanyuan agreed to form an alliance with Lin Feng.
"Grandson, apart from that, what else do you have in mind?" Asked Tuo Hanyuan. He wanted to test his grandson. Lin Feng had taught him for so many years, but now he had suddenly become enlightened.
"Grandpa, if I say so, will you do it?" Tuo Qi asked, a little embarrassed.
Tuo Hanyuan was surprised, but then he smiled and said, "Of course, you're the future leader, I'll listen to you."
"Alright, I want to make my teacher the deputy leader of the Corner Region."
"That's …"
Tuo Hanyuan wouldn't have thought that his grandson would make such a request. In the past, such a request would have been impossible. Tuo Hanyuan was lost in thought for a long time and then looked at Lin Feng. He suspected that Lin Feng was the one who had taught Tuo Qi to do so but when he saw that Lin Feng was also surprised, it didn't seem like he was pretending.
"Alright, alright, hahaha, my grandson has grown up!"
"I agree, I'll listen to you. I'll make Lin Feng the deputy leader of the Corner Region."
