"Brother Jing, how come you're back so soon?" Lin Feng rested for a while and adjusted his Qi. The pain in his chest lessened. Then, he looked at Jing Wuhen. He was surprised that Jing Wuhen had come back so early.
Jing Wuhen pulled a long face and looked furious. Lin Feng didn't need to look at him, he knew he had been rejected.
As expected, Jing Wuhen's next words infuriated Lin Feng.
"Lin Feng, you're delusional about Lang Ye City. They … they don't dare take care of the scattered countries." Jing Wuhen's face was full of anger. He was infuriated when he thought about how he had been snubbed in Nephrite West City. When had he ever suffered such indignation? Who didn't give him face? But Lang Ye City didn't give him face.
Lin Feng didn't say anything, he just listened to Jing Wuhen. Lin Feng knew that Jing Wuhen was going to tell him everything. First, he was going to tell Lin Feng how unhappy he was, and second, he was going to calm down.
"Lin Feng, after I went to the western part of Lang Ye City, I saw Jiang Yi Ze and told him your conditions, but he refused. He doesn't want to take care of the scattered countries. You told him that he couldn't report it to Lang Ye City, but he did anyway."
"Hierarch Nephrite also learned of this matter, and he flatly refused. He even used sharp words to pass on a message to me, and also to you."
"What did he say?" Asked Lin Feng. He pulled a long face. He wanted to give Lang Ye City a chance, but they didn't care. Lin Feng was also humiliated.
"He told you to forget about it. Also, Goldwheel City wants to swallow up the Scatter Kingdom, so Nephrite City can't interfere just because of that, lest they ruin the harmony." Jing Wuhen clenched his fists and groaned furiously.
"Bullshit!" Lin Feng violently punched the statue which immediately broke it into pieces. Lin Feng shouted so loudly that the statue almost broke into pieces. Lin Feng was furious.
"Alright, since Lang Ye City doesn't dare take care of the scattered countries, Brother Jing, does Ze dare take care of them?" Lin Feng looked at Jing Wuhen again and thought of another solution. It was even better than the first one.
Even though Lin Feng and Jing Wu Hen hadn't known each other for a long time, he could tell that Jing Wu Hen was a good friend. Jing Wu Hen wasn't afraid of offending the leader of the Golden Wheel City and had helped him kill so many strong cultivators of the Golden Wheel City. Lin Feng trusted Jing Wu Hen because of that.
Jing Wu Hen hadn't thought that Lin Feng would come up with such an idea. Letting the Ze Country manage the country was a risky decision, but after thinking about it, the Ze Country wouldn't be in any danger. Besides, the Ze Country was one of the strongest empires in the western part of the continent, they weren't afraid of the Golden Wheel City.
But Jing Wuhen had other opinions, so she didn't hesitate to tell Lin Feng.
"Lin Feng, why don't you manage the country for now, but we'll send some high-level Godly Zun cultivators to guard it. You and I can travel the continent without worries."
"But the country will be your territory in the future. If you can find the descendant of the Scattered Zun Zun cultivator, that would be the best. If you can't find him, I'll tell you the truth. Since you've obtained the Scattered Zun Zun's inheritance, you have a reason to manage the country.
"I know you're worried, otherwise you would've left the country in your hands. Now that you have this condition, you can rest assured."
Jing Wuhen explained everything to Lin Feng in detail. It was the safest way so far. Since Lang Ye City didn't dare take over the country, Lin Feng would be the one to take it. Originally, Lin Feng could've taken over the country openly after killing Yan Zhen.
Lin Feng didn't do that, which was already very benevolent of him. Now that he was in control of the country, nobody in the country would object.
Lin Feng's thoughts were complicated. To be honest, he did have this idea. If he took over the country, he would at least have a foundation. He wouldn't be like a floating duckweed. Secondly, the country was Xiaoqing's home. Lin Feng had to protect the country and give Xiaoqing an explanation.
The most important thing was that if people from the Continent of the Nine Clouds or Godly Continent wanted to come to Eternal Kingdom, they would first appear in the country. If he took over the country, it would be much easier for them to come to Eternal Kingdom in the future. There wouldn't be much risk.
It was a perfect plan, and Lin Feng had no reason to refuse. It was very tempting.
"Benefactor, please be the ruler, I beg you."
Lin Feng was astonished. He looked at the people who were kneeling on the ground. They were begging him with sincerity and sincerity. Lin Feng looked at them and saw that they were begging him with sincerity.
"Benefactor, you're the most suitable person to manage the country. Please be the ruler."
"Indeed, Benefactor, if you become the ruler, we'll be the first to support you."
"Benefactor …"
"Benefactor …"
Their voices were getting louder and louder. In the end, Jing Wuhen could only hear them begging him. Jing Wuhen smiled wryly, but when he looked at Lin Feng, he knew that this was human nature.
Even though Lin Feng had killed Yan Zhen, he had gained the hearts of the people of the border village. At the very least, he had gained the hearts of the people of the poor village. This was very important.
Lin Feng looked at the thousands of people kneeling down. More and more people were kneeling down. Lin Feng had mixed feelings. He didn't know what to say to make them stand up.
"Lin Feng, look …"
Shouted Jing Wuhen. Lin Feng was astonished. He looked at Jing Wuhen and then at the girl with the veil on her head.
Lin Feng's heart was pounding. He was excited to see Xiaoqing alive.
Xiaoqing, who was wearing a veil, was also very excited. Her beautiful eyes were filled with tears, but they were covered by the veil.
"Xiaoqing? Little sister? "Lin Feng subconsciously shouted.
"Brother."
When Lin Feng finished talking, a voice replied in a husky voice. Lin Feng couldn't contain his excitement anymore. He jumped up into the air. Little Qing also jumped up into the air and landed in front of Lin Feng.
Lin Feng looked at Xiaoqing and remained silent for a long time. His face was filled with excitement. He had thought that Xiaoqing had been killed, but now she was in front of him again. Lin Feng didn't know what to feel.
Xiaoqing had finally seen her brother. She didn't have any regrets anymore.
"Xiaoqing, tell me what happened to you, okay?" Asked Lin Feng while holding her hand. Xiaoqing's hand was ice-cold, but it was still soft and smooth.
Little Qing nodded and grunted softly. However, when she saw the thousands of people kneeling down below, she signaled for them to leave first.
Lin Feng nodded. Then, he looked at the thousands of people kneeling on the ground and said in a deep voice, "Get up, I agree to your request."
"Oh, that's great, our benefactor agreed. Haha, greetings, Your Majesty."
"Quick, greetings, Your Majesty."
When the people of the slums heard Lin Feng's affirmation, they were overjoyed. Immediately after, they kowtowed to Lin Feng three times and then reluctantly left the village. However, they all knew that Lin Feng and Little Qing were going to have a lot to talk about so they didn't want to disturb them.
Everybody left the village. Jing Wuhen didn't want to hear Lin Feng and Xiaoqing's conversation, so he created a barrier around himself and sat on the stage.
In the air, Lin Feng and Xiaoqing were standing side by side. They hadn't seen each other for a few months and Lin Feng could see that Xiaoqing had lost a lot of weight. However, her Qi was much more stable than before. She wasn't as lively as before, but she looked more reserved. Lin Feng had a strange feeling about her, but that feeling quickly disappeared.
"Xiaoqing, come here." Lin Feng grabbed Xiaoqing's hand and landed on the ground.
"Brother, you've become stronger. Xiaoqing is very happy." Said Xiaoqing smiling, but Lin Feng couldn't see her face because of her veil.
"Xiaoqing, take off your veil." Said Lin Feng to Xiaoqing while frowning. Xiaoqing shook her head, she didn't seem like she was going to take off her veil.
Lin Feng had the feeling that something wasn't right. He immediately stretched his hand, ignoring Little Qing's resistance, he took off the veil covering her face. However, when Lin Feng saw Little Qing's face, he felt like his heart was going to collapse. He was furious, he wanted to kill Huyan Qing again.
Little Qing's face was covered with scars. She looked like a celestial being. If Lin Feng hadn't known Little Qing, he would have been terrified. It would have been hard to believe that she was Little Qing. Lin Feng was astonished. He couldn't believe that this was Little Qing.
"Little sister, you …?" Lin Feng's facial expression drastically changed. He couldn't say anything for a long time. He could only open his eyes wide.
Little Qing screamed and covered her face with the scarf in a panic. She took a few steps back and muttered with some grievance, "Brother, I scared you. I'm sorry!" After saying that, Little Qing seemed a little disappointed and guilty.
Lin Feng's heart ached. He looked at Xiaoqing and felt sad.
"Little sister, no matter what you become, you will always be my good little sister. You will never change." Said Lin Feng while tightly hugging Xiaoqing. Even though her face had been ruined, Lin Feng could still smell her sweet fragrance. Lin Feng's heart calmed down a bit.
Lin Feng was calm but Xiaoqing was extremely moved. Her brother hadn't changed, he still cared about her and loved her. That was enough for her.
"Brother, boohoo …" Xiaoqing buried her head in Lin Feng's chest and started crying.
"Don't cry, I'm here." Lin Feng's heart ached. He took a deep breath and gently patted Xiaoqing's shoulder.
