One billion eight hundred fifty million!
This included all the money he got from the recent sale of the Heaven Rank Green Clam.
After deducting the purchase of materials, commission, and other expenses, he wasn't even halfway to the five billion mark. Lin Feng frowned as he took the storage ring from Zi Yao. He felt conflicted and pained.
Qian Bujin was implicated by him.
That day, he didn't expect Ji to be so ruthless and direct.
Treasures arouse the envy of others!
Qian Bujin knew a secret that exceeded his own identity. The huge profits and the true terror of the Clam had attracted Ji's attention. At first, the value of the Clam wasn't noticed. However, with the appearance of Yellow, Green, and even Blue Clam, everything changed.
"This time, I've really troubled you." Lin Feng thanked him.
First, he helped him erase a part of Qian Bujin's memories and then came to inform him. He could feel his sincerity.
If it wasn't for Yama North, Ji's experts would have come knocking on his door already. Perhaps with his strength, protecting himself would not be a problem. However, Zi Yao and Zi Yao's mother were still in the Imperial Garden. How could he stop the locust-like experts of Ji by himself?
At that time, how could the word 'troublesome' describe it?
"It's my duty." Yama North smiled and shook his head. "This is also my fault. I didn't take it to heart at first. I didn't expect that in such a short period of time, the profits and benefits involved in the Clam would reach such a terrifying level. If I had known, this matter wouldn't have gotten so out of hand. "
Yama North sighed. His eyes were filled with worry.
There was no wall in the world that didn't have a crack. This matter seemed to have come to an end, but would it really end?
It was still unknown.
He knew how strong Ji's forces were. They were everywhere. Even as Yama North, he only knew a small part of it. Not to mention others, just the Yulong Tea House. He asked Lin Feng to search for information because he knew Yi Lian was an Ji expert.
"So, we can't sell the Clam for now?" Lin Feng frowned.
"Absolutely not." King Yama North raised a hand to stop him with a cold look in his eyes. "Hui has already caused a huge earthquake in the Dou Spirit World, and the situation is on the verge of breaking out. Even the slightest movement will attract the attention of 'pinnacle' beings. If you don't want to be a fugitive, then forget about Chi for a while. "
"Earthquake?" Lin Feng looked puzzled.
It was merely an acquired treasure. Even if he sold a lot of it, it wouldn't change anything. Moreover, it had only been a little more than a month. How could …
"Lin Feng, you haven't been paying attention to the War of the Liches in a while, right?" The King of the North's eyes shone.
"Mm," Lin Feng replied softly.
Ever since he set his goal of earning five billion Wizard Coins, he had temporarily put aside the War of Liches and Demons.
Come to think of it, he was indeed a little irresponsible as the Human Emperor.
However …
What is the connection between this and the War of the Liches?
As if he saw through Lin Feng's doubts, the King of the North's golden eyes glimmered. He said, "Ever since the battle at the Fallen Witch Mountain Range, the Sorcerer Race has been unable to resist the demonic beast race's invasion. They have been holed up in the Sorcerer Race's territory, slowly exhausting their strength to resist the demonic beast race's invasion. They are completely suppressed by the demonic beast race, unable to move. I heard that Sorcerer Emperor Jiang was injured and went into seclusion."
Lin Feng nodded his head. He was very clear about these matters.
"Shi Jiuyin temporarily assumed the position of Sorcerer Emperor. Although he was aggressive on the surface, vowing to fight the demonic beast race to the end, he was all bark and no bite. All along, he had been using sneak attacks to harass the demonic beast race. He had never fought an open battle with the demonic beast race, until …" The King of the North's expression turned solemn, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes. "Three days ago."
"Three days ago?" Lin Feng's heart skipped a beat.
From what the King of the North said, it seemed like the 'pinnacle' operation was related to the battle three days ago.
"Three days ago, Shi Jiuyin launched his first real attack." The King of the North said solemnly, his white hair fluttering in the wind. "In this battle, there were more than two hundred 'Chi's' astral treasures that displayed great battle prowess. Divine beasts with immortal bodies exhausted the demonic beast race's Saint Realm experts. The Sorcerer Race defeated the demonic beast race with less than half of their strength. Blood flowed like a river."
"The Sorcerer Race won a great victory!"
The shocking news cleared Lin Feng's mind. It was as if he had been enlightened.
Everything was clear now.
Indeed, a single Chi's battle prowess was only so-so. However, in a battle, a large number of 'Chi's', with their immortal bodies, could display a terrifying might. Huang Xiaolong had thought about this before, and that was why he had planned to arm the Southern Region. However, he hadn't expected the Sorcerer Race to be the first to use it.
The might of this battle would leave a deep impression on the demonic beast race.
"So, the 'pinnacle' operation is from the demonic beast race?" Lin Feng's gaze deepened.
"I don't know." The King of the North said seriously, "Huang Jifu's actions are secretive. He is both righteous and evil. He is extremely self-centered. Although the existence of 'pinnacle' is completely neutral, his neutrality is not absolute. If the demonic beast race gives him great benefits, helping the demonic beast race investigate a piece of information is as easy as lifting a finger for 'pinnacle'."
"I understand." Lin Feng nodded.
Although the King of the North was not certain, his guess was not far from the truth.
There must be a reason for this abnormality. Otherwise, how could 'Extremity' be so coincidental? Of all times, he just had to appear right after this battle.
Everything was clear.
But …
If he couldn't sell the 'Chi', how could he fill the gap of 3.15 billion?
What he lacked now wasn't the huge sum of money, but an opportunity. It could even be said that he only needed a few days. But the Sorcerer Race couldn't wait. They used the astral treasures on the battlefield so quickly, making the demonic beast race jealous.
Just as the King of the North said, it would be difficult for the Chi to appear again.
The news of Qian Bujin's death and the massacre of the Beiyu Auction House was like a thorn in his heart. Although he wasn't friends with Qian Bujin, he didn't kill Qian Bujin, but Qian Bujin died because of him, implicating so many innocent cultivators.
…
The King of the North left.
Although he didn't know what his goal was, he could feel his "goodwill".
Lin Feng sat on the chair and pondered.
At this moment, he was undoubtedly standing on a cliff. There was a flower at the edge of the cliff. He could pick it with his hand, but it was extremely dangerous. He had many ways to sell the last batch of Blue Heaven Stage Chi, but each method was a "gamble".
If he won, he would get five billion.
If he didn't win, his identity would be exposed. At that time, just as the King of the North said —
Fugitive!
How should he choose?
Lin Feng pressed the back of his head and felt a headache.
Zi Yao stood by the side, her beautiful eyes flickering. She quietly accompanied him without saying a word. When she was in the Kingdom of Maru, her ability might have been of some help, but now, even though she was an early-stage Saint King, Zi Yao knew very well that she was more of a burden to Lin Da Ge than a help.
Even so, Zi Yao wasn't sad. Instead, she felt happy and blissful.
Which woman didn't want her other half to be a great hero, an indomitable man? She wanted to hide in his arms and live in peace without thinking about anything.
She was proud of Lin Da Ge.
…
He was very conflicted.
However, Lin Feng knew that he had to make a decision.
Before he made a decision, there was something he had to do first. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to feel at ease.
"Zi Yao." Lin Feng's eyes sparkled as he looked at the beautiful woman in the purple dress in front of him. Compared to the immaturity and naivety in the Kingdom of Maru, she now had a mature charm. She had become a truly perfect woman. She was as beautiful as a fairy. Every time he saw her, his heart would flutter.
"Lin Da Ge," Zi Yao smiled sweetly, "Last time, you said that you would take me back to the Kingdom of Maru. When will we set off? Lan, Yu, Tianqing … I wonder how everyone is doing now. I miss them so much. "
"They are doing well," Lin Feng said with a faint smile. He looked at Zi Yao and pursed his lips, "Thank you, Zi Yao."
She knew. She understood.
She also knew what was the best thing to do now.
A true husband and wife were like this. They relied on each other, accommodated each other, and were one. They didn't need to say much to understand each other's hearts.
"Then I'll take it that you agree." Zi Yao blinked her eyes, looking rather playful. "I'll go and tell Mother. She'll definitely be very happy. She's always wanted to go to the place where I grew up to take a look and live a peaceful life without any worries. Zi Yao likes that too."
"Yes, it won't be long before we can live a carefree life." Lin Feng's eyes were clear.
The cultivators of the Southern Region, the cultivators of the entire human territory, all the people, and those ordinary people, didn't think so too?
As the Human Emperor, this was his responsibility.
"Really?" Zi Yao smiled softly.
"Of course." Lin Feng didn't hesitate and nodded with a smile.
…
Leaving wasn't necessarily escaping.
Sometimes, it was a kind of release, a kind of fulfillment.
Lin Feng knew very well that although Zi Yao was his wife, she was also his weakness. The incident at the Zi Man Tower was still vivid in his mind, but he had only threatened her. If Zi Yao died because of him, what would happen to him? It was hard to imagine, and he didn't dare to imagine.
Now, sending Zi Yao and Zi Yao's mother to the Kingdom of Maru was equivalent to letting him have no worries.
He would do whatever he wanted to do, whatever he should do!
Wasn't he like this in the past?
As long as his goal was firm and clear, how to walk the path and how fast he walked it was another matter.
Even if Ji's investigation hadn't happened, he had planned to let Zi Yao return to the Kingdom of Maru after this matter was over. Now, it was just bringing it forward. After all, Ji's investigation had already begun. Even if he didn't do anything, he might be exposed at any time. At that time, Zi Yao would be in danger.
And now, he was alone. He could attack or retreat. What was there to be afraid of?
Ji?
Did he need to care?
From the village boy of the Lin Family Village, he had walked all the way to the top of the pyramid of the Dou Ling World. When had he ever been afraid?
Not in the past, not now, and definitely not in the future.
"Ji …" Lin Feng's eyes flickered, and the long-awaited battle intent boiled again.
This time, he wasn't facing one person, but one of the three major forces of Heaven Spirit World!
Very interesting!
