Ji Xia!
There was a bloody light in his blue eyes, and there was incomparable determination.
Lin Feng didn't expect to see Ji Xia again under such circumstances. Although they hadn't seen each other for many years, a warrior's appearance rarely changed. Especially since he and Ji Xia had known each other for a long time. They were definitely not ordinary friends. In Green Smoke City and Yanling Prefecture, Ji Xia had accompanied him as he grew up.
How could he not recognize him?
When they parted at Yanling Prefecture, Master Ji Jin, Second Senior Brother Zhu Ling, and Ji Xiu went to Great Flame Prefecture, while Qianqian and Ji Xia went to Yellow Crane Prefecture …
"Don't worry, Brother Lin. I treat Qianqian like my own sister." Ji Xia smiled. "This parting will take at least a year and a half, and at most five to seven years. Take care of yourself and don't let Junior Sister worry. If you have the chance, come to Yellow Crane Prefecture's Qin Chamber of Commerce."
The scene when they parted that day was still clearly engraved in his mind.
And now, when he saw Ji Xia again, it was like this!
Lin Feng was a little stunned.
But at this time, Ji Xia had already madly shouted, "Hurry up and leave, Lin Feng!" He roared with almost all his strength. Ji Xia suddenly turned his head, a look of determination flashing in his eyes. The only sword in his left hand flew out with a strong starlight.
"Whoosh!" The light was dazzling. In an instant —
Bang!!! The sword violently exploded, and a wave of mournful howls rang out from the group of enemies. However, there were even more howls of anger.
"Bastard!"
"Damn it, don't think of running!"
"Go to hell, little bastard!!"
… …
The dazzling treasured sword shattered, but it was only able to delay the enemy for a split second. To a true powerhouse, Ji Xia's attack wasn't enough to cause any trouble at all. In fact … Ji Xia's momentary pause had actually slowed down his own escape, and this momentary pause was fatal.
"Hiss!" "Hiss!" Two vines as thick as a baby's arm suddenly shot out from the ground.
Ji Xia had no time to react at all. His legs had been tied up. The flashing green light had a demonic aura. The vines continued to extend upward with sharp barbs that pierced deep into Ji Xia's body, completely shattering his already damaged star armor!
"Ah!!" Ji Xia screamed in pain. His face and ears were red. He gritted his teeth and unleashed all his Star Power, but it was only enough to stop the vines from spreading.
And in this short period of time, the pursuing cultivators had already caught up to them, each of them looking fierce and vicious. Their bodies were stained with blood, as if they had just experienced a great battle, but it was unknown whose blood this was. However, there was one thing that was certain, and that was that the auras of these dozen or so martial artists were still very powerful!
At most, he would only suffer some minor injuries.
"It's over." Ji Xia's heart sank to the bottom of the valley, and his eyes were filled with deep guilt.
However, he did not expect to implicate Lin Feng. He was very clear about the methods of these people. They would rather kill the wrong person than let Lin Feng escape death. At this moment, the bald youth's expression was extremely ugly. Although he was a Cosmic Sector-level warrior, he had just stepped into the Cosmic Sector-level and was no match for them.
Run! This was the bald youth's first reaction. Although it was a pity for the 10 Star Crystals, his life was more important.
However, just as he was about to break into a run, suddenly —
"Pa! ~" The black-clothed youth beside him disappeared instantly. His movements were so fast that the bald youth could not even catch a trace of his movement! The bald youth was instantly stunned. At this moment, Ji Xia was also stunned because he saw a black shadow blocking in front of him.
It was so familiar.
Lin Feng!
Ji Xia's brain had just reacted when the terrifying murderous aura of the dozen or so enemies in front of him suddenly arrived. It was as if they were going to annihilate everything. Furious shouts and roars rose and fell one after another. However, in an instant, he saw that Lin Feng seemed to have moved. He only slowly raised his right hand. His movements were very slow, but they seemed to contain endless mysteries.
Every movement of his hand seemed to be as tall as the sky.
"Boom!" A flame rose, blocking all sight. It was a fiery red light that he could not see clearly at all. It was like a ball of fire, but also like a thousand flames enveloping it. Lin Feng only raised his hand, and the flame had already appeared in his hand.
Bang! ~ ~
This flame made everything stop.
Time stood still at that moment. In the eyes of the bald youth and Ji Xia, the flame disappeared in the blink of an eye, and there was no sound in their ears. As the bright red flame disappeared without a trace, there was nothing in front of them. It was empty.
Where did he go?
This thought appeared in the minds of Ji Xia and the bald youth at the same time.
The dozen or so warriors who were still majestic and murderous just now had completely disappeared like smoke and dust. There was no trace of their existence at all. Shocked and horrified, Ji Xia and the bald youth felt a chill down their spines. It was so cold that they shivered and got goosebumps.
Dead!
He died just like that!?!
The bald young man's eyes almost popped out of their sockets, and his legs began to tremble. At this moment, Ji Xia had already recovered from the shock because there was no longer any pain in his body. The demonic green vines had disappeared without a trace, which meant that the warrior who released the Star Technique was already dead.
How could it be!?!
Ji Xia's mind was in a mess, and he could not recover from the shock.
The dozen or so warriors who chased after him were all elites of the Chamber of Commerce, and two of them were Star Sector-level powerhouses! He used all his strength and almost died. Under the protection of his brothers, he was seriously injured and barely escaped.
But now …
These powerful martial artists had actually disappeared without a trace in an instant!?
…
"It's okay." Lin Feng turned around.
Looking at Ji Xia's appearance, his heart ached and he felt that something was wrong.
Logically speaking, with Ji Xia and Qianqian's relationship, it was impossible for them to encounter such a situation. Most importantly, this was in the Qin Chamber of Commerce! With endless doubts in his heart, Lin Feng pursed his lips slightly, but he put this question aside for the time being. Light flashed in his hand, and an exquisite fruit suddenly flew out.
"Catch, Brother Ji." Lin Feng's eyes flickered.
He could tell that Ji Xia was already at the end of his rope. Not only was his body seriously injured, but his soul was also seriously injured.
Fortunately, he was not strong and was only a Star Lord, so this "Emperor Reaper Fruit" should be enough to heal his injuries.
"Earth-rank Star Fruit?" The bald young man's eyes widened.
"This is …" Ji Xia weakly reached out and took it. Looking at this strangely shaped fruit, he instantly lost his voice. "Emperor Reaper Fruit!"
"My, my god, 10000 star crystals." The bald young man's legs went soft, and he almost knelt down.
"This, this …" Ji Xia was a little dazed, but this was a bit too expensive.
Lin Feng said seriously, "Hurry up and eat it, Brother Ji. Your injuries can't be delayed." He had experienced countless battles of life and death, and had walked past the gates of hell countless times. He knew very well that the injuries to his body were secondary, but the injuries to his soul would worsen with each passing minute. He had to treat it seriously.
"Oh." Ji Xia had already run out of ideas.
The bald young man opened his mouth wide in shock. Then, he swallowed the Royal Reed Fruit, which was worth 10000 star crystals, in one gulp.
"No way?" The bald young man's mouth twitched. He swallowed 10000 star crystals just like that?
Lin Feng's eyes glittered, and he stood there calmly.
This "Emperor Reaper Fruit" was useless to him, but it was a rare treasure for a Star Lord. It could be counted as half a "Soul Returning Fruit." Not only that, but it could also heal injuries and create new blood. The only downside was that it had too little energy, so it was not very useful for a Star Realm warrior.
Hua! The light flashed, and Ji Xia's pale face instantly turned red.
His weak eyes also glowed. The soul power he had consumed was replenished, and his spirit was refreshed.
It was worth it.
"Lin Feng, you …" His voice returned to normal, and Ji Xia immediately looked up at Lin Feng, his eyes filled with endless confusion.
"We'll talk about my business later." Lin Feng immediately interrupted with a slightly anxious look in his eyes. He said, "What happened? Why were you hunted by the Qin Chamber of Commerce? And Qianqian, is she okay?"
Qianqian?
The bald young man was slightly dazed.
"I'm sorry, Lin Feng." Ji Xia's voice was a bit heavy, and he clenched his fists in pain. "I didn't do what I promised you. Junior Sister, she … she was taken away!"
Bang! It was like a heavy bomb had exploded.
Hearing this shocking news, Lin Feng felt as if the world had collapsed, and everything became gray and silent.
He staggered back two steps. Pa! Lin Feng instantly clenched his fists. His expression changed drastically in a split second, carrying a strong ruthless aura. A sharp light shot out from his eyes, and a strong murderous intent emitted from him. In an instant, Ji Xia felt a chill in her heart, and the bald youth fell to the ground.
Terrifying!
He was as terrifying as a demon god.
The bald young man was scared out of his wits. He had never seen such a terrifying aura. It was as if he could destroy everything with a raise of his hand.
What strength!
"Don't blame yourself first." Lin Feng pursed his lips, and his eyes were serious. He said word by word, "Tell me the whole story in detail." Impulsiveness would only make things worse. The more dangerous the situation, the calmer one must be. Lin Feng knew this very well.
Emotional outbursts were normal, but he knew that he couldn't blame Ji Xia for this.
Because he wasn't strong enough to protect Qianqian. Moreover, it wasn't Ji Xia's responsibility to protect Qianqian.
It was his own responsibility!
…
"At that time, I just came back from outside with a few brothers."
"Suddenly, we saw that the inner court where Qianqian was in was in chaos. It seemed that something had happened. My brothers and I rushed over and saw Qianqian being taken away. Most of Qianqian's guards were dead, and corpses were everywhere."
…
"My brothers and I didn't know what had happened. When the other party saw us, they immediately attacked, and their killing intent was obvious."
"Then, under the protection of my brothers, I barely managed to escape."
…
Very quickly, Ji Xia recounted everything that had happened in detail.
Lin Feng's expression kept changing, and his eyes were shining. He suppressed the anxiety and uneasiness in his heart, and listened very carefully without interrupting.
Ji Xia's narration was very important.
Now was not the time to blame anyone. The most important thing was —
To save Qianqian!
"Who were those people?" Lin Feng's eyes were burning, and he stared at Ji Xia.
Ji Xia's eyes were bloody, and his body trembled. "They were warriors of the Qin Chamber of Commerce!"
What!?
Lin Feng's expression changed dramatically.
