Chapter 284 Ling Feng's Accusation
Faced with Ling Feng's invincible attitude and provocation, Bai Ke smiled slightly and remained silent, thinking to himself, "You're really good at putting on airs."
Seeing that something was wrong, Tian Xin and the rest of the pursuit team rushed to the scene.
Before them lay four of their own men lying on the ground: Bai Ke, who was calm and collected, and Ling Feng, who was sharp and angular.
Xing Jian and his group were all seriously injured and collapsed on the ground, unable to move, after only a brief encounter with Ling Feng.
"Xing Jian, what are you doing? How did you get injured like this?" Tian Xin asked in shock as she helped Xing Jian up, whose shoulder was bleeding and who was spitting blood from his mouth.
Xing Jian was barely conscious at this point, and it was only after Tian Xin infused him with some spiritual energy that he managed to regain some senses and said in a trembling voice:
"This...this kid's jade wrench is...strange. He's clearly only at the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm, yet...he can instantly unleash power comparable to the late-stage Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul realm using that jade wrench!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze instantly focused on the jade wrench on Ling Feng's hand, while Tian Xin was frantically racking her brains, trying to think of a way to break the deadlock.
"Are you done yet? I haven't had enough fun yet!" Ling Feng impatiently slammed the end of his spear into the ground, making a "thump-thump" sound.
"Bai Ke, I'll save you for last and savor you slowly!" Ling Feng raised his spear, the tip first pointing at Bai Ke, then at Tian Xin and the others, saying, "Now, I'll deal with these troublesome people first."
Bai Ke remained indifferent, a mysterious smile playing on his lips. He neither spoke nor made any statement, simply standing there quietly watching Ling Feng perform.
With a "whoosh," Ling Feng suddenly disappeared.
"Watch out!" Tian Xin shouted to the pursuers who were standing there dumbfounded and completely unprepared.
"Too late." Ling Feng's confident voice rang out from the crowd, only to be followed by several afterimages dancing through the throng. In an instant, the entire pursuit team collapsed, clutching their necks.
Without exception, each of them had a barely perceptible, thin, bloody gash on their neck. The moment they collapsed, clutching their necks, warm blood gushed out from the gradually widening gash.
The members of the pursuit team lay on the ground, clutching their necks, kicking their legs desperately, and letting out helpless, whimpering roars.
Seeing this horrific scene, Tian Xin's eyes instantly reddened, and she couldn't help but shout angrily, "Beast!"
Ling Feng, meanwhile, was leisurely playing with his spear. Hearing Tian Xin's curses, he laughed in anger:
"You call me a beast? What right do you have to call me a beast? You kill me, so I'll kill you. Isn't that a perfectly normal thing?"
"If you want to kill me, do you expect me to tie my own hands, wash my neck, and stick my head out in front of you so you can chop it off obediently?!"
Bai Ke, who was watching the show from the sidelines, couldn't help but nod in agreement upon hearing Ling Feng's words. He thought to himself that the protagonist's values were quite in line with his own tastes in some ways.
Why bother with morality when someone wants to kill you? If the opportunity arises, kill them without hesitation.
Moreover, the killing must be thorough, the roots must be cut off, and no future troubles should be left unaddressed!
But Tian Xin didn't think so. She silently took out a black soft whip, straightened her body, pointed the whip at Ling Feng, and sternly rebuked him:
"Traitor! You murdered a sect elder and fled to escape punishment, which was wrong in the first place. It is only right and proper for us to bring you back to the sect. Not only are you unrepentant, but you also dare to spout nonsense again!"
"Ha, it's only natural! Have you ever considered why I killed Fang Shiqing?" Ling Feng roared, his eyes filled with disdain and his expression agitated.
"Fang Shiqing openly accepted me as his alchemy apprentice, but secretly he forced me to take slow-acting poison every day, and beat and tortured me! He wanted to pry open my mouth and get the so-called 'secret to turning bad luck into good luck' from me!"
"A secret to turning misfortune into good fortune? Do you think I'd have such a thing? If I did, would I be infamous and bullied by everyone in the sect?!"
Upon hearing this, Bai Ke couldn't help but curl his lip, thinking to himself: "Brother, you really do have such a good thing! It's just that it's called the power of luck, and you can't see it."
"I'm truly grateful to him! If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have been able to unleash my potential and break through to the Nascent Soul stage because of this slow-acting poison!"
Ling Feng pointed the tip of his spear at everyone, dead and alive. His agitated emotions gradually calmed. After a soft sigh, he turned his face to the sky at a forty-five-degree angle and sneered:
"Ha, the so-called prestigious sects, the overlords of the heavenly realm, the number one righteous sects, the disciples of the great sects are nothing but a bunch of hypocritical scoundrels!"
"And you still talk to me about having a legitimate reason for your actions and acting on behalf of Heaven! You portray yourself as a righteous saint, arbitrarily controlling the life and death of others, and you still think you're right. It's disgusting!"
Ling Feng's words were like incredibly sharp needles, piercing Tian Xin's heart, hurting her soul, and shaking her beliefs.
Tian Xin was unsteady on her feet, swaying as she moved, muttering, "No, that's not how it is."
"Not like that? Then how is it? Tell me." Ling Feng's voice seemed to possess a special magic, causing Tian Xin's consciousness to gradually sink into chaos.
Tian Xin struggled to muster a sliver of spiritual energy, barely managing to stand, and forced herself to speak:
"No one in the world is perfect, and it's impossible for everyone in a sect to be good. Come back to the sect with me and explain things properly to the Enforcement Hall. I believe they will investigate thoroughly!"
"Give me a break. If I surrender and go back to the sect with you, will I even have a chance to explain myself in the Enforcement Hall? Don't be naive. There's only one fate awaiting me—death!"
Ling Feng looked at Tian Xin with some pity and sighed:
“Elder Tian Xin, when I went to Tianxiu Peak to find Xin’er, you drove me away. But I don’t hold a grudge against you for that. I know you did it so that Xin’er could cultivate without distractions.”
"I know you have a sharp tongue but a soft heart, and I originally intended to let you go. It's just a pity that you were involved in and witnessed this, and I can't leave you alive to cause trouble for myself."
Ling Feng, carrying a gun, slowly walked up to Tian Xin and pointed the gun at her.
However, Tian Xin was unable to muster any spiritual power at this moment, feeling weak all over and her consciousness was blurred.
"Sorry!" Ling Feng raised his spear back, as if to stab it down.
"Hey! I said you've done your act, that's enough." Bai Ke's lazy voice came from behind Ling Feng.
Ling Feng was shocked and dodged backward. For a moment, he did not even notice Bai Ke's presence.
"Heh, it's my turn to perform, isn't it?" Bai Ke said with a grin.
