Chapter 1082: Ruthless Methods
The roaring, terrifying Wasteland Sea. Lin Feng had come here once again. But this time, feeling this aura of desolation, he no longer carried the deep reverence he had the first time. Instead, he was filled with boldness and pride.
Now, even this Wasteland Sea, which could bury peerless experts, could no longer stop him. He no longer needed to fear the aura of desolation. He even dared to devour its power. As long as the Exquisite Saintly Immortal Qi he could mobilize was strong enough, he could suppress enough of the desolate power into the Demon Sea, making it serve him.
The edge of the Wasteland Sea in the Eight Wastelands Realm was different from the other side. There were more desolate war vessels here, docked directly in the Wasteland Sea, ready to land at any time. As long as there were enough people, they could set off immediately. That was the difference.
Lin Feng did not directly choose to take a Void Ship to Dragon Island. The Void Ship he had seized from the Yang Clan was too conspicuous. If he encountered powerful experts in the Wasteland Sea and was robbed, it would be bad. It was better to save it for critical moments. Among the vessels docked in this Wasteland Sea, many were heading to Dragon Island, showing how prosperous and powerful Dragon Island was.
Moreover, the cost of traveling from here to Dragon Island was not as terrifying as traveling from the other end of the Wasteland Sea to here. Lin Feng chose to board a luxurious vessel heading to Dragon Island, which could accommodate a thousand people.
Lin Feng's timing was quite coincidental. The number of people was just enough, and they could set off immediately.
The vessel started moving. The light of Essence enveloped the ship, heading into the Wasteland Sea. The terrifying power of desolation roared, rolling endlessly.
"Wait!" Just as the vessel had been traveling for a short while, a powerful shout came from the void. It shook the crowd's blood and qi. They looked up at two old men approaching. Their hearts were quite surprised. Two Venerable experts, with formidable strength.
"Open the Essence barrier and let us in. We'll pay double the Essence Crystals!"
The old man's voice rang out. The vessel's controller nodded, not wanting to offend these two Venerables. "Everyone, withstand the power of desolation for a moment. It will only take an instant."
None of the crowd had any objections. They were all travelers. An instant's invasion of the desolate power wouldn't do anything to them.
A moment later, the Essence barrier opened. The two men immediately stepped onto the vessel. Everyone went back to their own business, not causing much of a stir. The center of conversation was still the major event that had happened a month ago in the Northern Wasteland: the Stone Emperor and Yu Emperor recruiting their first batch of Martial Emperor's Disciples, as well as the grudge between the Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress and the Heavenly Terrace.
"Those people have been in the Heavenly Terrace for over a month now. I wonder how they are doing. They were already talented before; they should be even more terrifying now." A group of people in the crowd were discussing.
"Heh, indeed. Especially those young masters from a few big families in the Northern Wasteland, and some geniuses from other regions. But I didn't expect Xuanyuan Potian to fail to become a Martial Emperor's Disciple. He was bullied by the Great Ape Emperor's grandson. How miserable. He lost all face. And he had talked so big before."
"Hehe, you don't understand. Xuanyuan Potian was still lucky. Who is Yuan Fei? The Great Ape Emperor's grandson. Mu Chen and Hou Qinglin both gave him face. Lin Feng was lucky to have befriended him. Xuanyuan Potian was lucky not to die. The most miserable were the Yang Clan. They were desperate to stick their daughter to someone else, but it didn't work out. And I heard that both siblings were personally kicked out by Lin Feng. They lost all face. From now on, they'll probably be left behind by the genius disciples of the other families. What a tragedy."
"Keep your voice down!" The person opposite him winked. There were many people and loose lips. Who knew if there were any members of the Yang Clan around? Besides, he seemed to have felt a chill just now.
"What's there to be afraid of? The Yang Clan has its own Void Ship. They can't possibly be here. But speaking of which, Xuanyuan Potian didn't win the position of First Disciple, and he didn't ask for the Yang Clan woman. What a waste. That Yang Ziye is not bad-looking, and her bloodline power is special. If I could have a good time with her..."
As he spoke, the man burst out laughing. The people around him also laughed heartily. They had all had such thoughts, but it was impossible to realize, so they could only indulge in their fantasies.
At this moment, Lin Feng's brow furrowed slightly. The laughing men hadn't noticed yet that the two old men who had come up later already had murderous intent written on their faces.
"People from the Yang Clan?" A bad feeling suddenly arose in Lin Feng's heart. These two had boarded the vessel after him. Now, hearing those people's conversation, they revealed their killing intent.
"Toads exist in every era. But some toads don't know when they're asking for death."
Sure enough, one of the old men spoke coldly at this moment. The laughter of those men abruptly stopped. They looked at the speaking old man, wanting to get angry but not daring to say anything. These people were no saints either, but the other party's cultivation was unfathomable, and they dared not provoke them.
"Why have you shut up? Go on, keep talking!" The other old man's voice was icy, also filled with killing intent. But he didn't immediately make a move to kill.
"Senior, are you from the Yang Clan?" one of them asked tentatively.
The two men didn't answer. They just stared coldly at those people. Their killing intent was already exposed, but they didn't act. This made those people extremely uncomfortable.
"They're stalling for time!" Lin Feng's brow furrowed even more. Then he looked at the vessel's controller and sent a voice transmission: "Senior, if something unexpected happens, I hope you will open the Essence barrier. Otherwise, we will all die!"
The vessel's controller's gaze fell on Lin Feng. His brow twitched. Seeing Lin Feng's solemn expression, he transmitted back: "What do you mean?"
"These two are definitely from the Yang Clan. They came for me, to kill me. They're not making a move now because they want to go deeper into the Wasteland Sea. They don't dare to kill openly. So, once we continue forward, when they make their move, to keep it a secret, everyone on this vessel will be silenced!"
Lin Feng said seriously. Hearing his words, the vessel's controller's expression stiffened. Listening to Lin Feng's grave voice transmission, it really seemed possible. Otherwise, those two had already revealed their killing intent, so why hadn't they killed anyone?
"Weng!" The vessel suddenly stopped, causing the crowd's expressions to freeze.
"What's going on?"
"Why aren't we moving?" the crowd asked one after another.
"There's a small problem with the vessel. We need to turn back. Everyone, please be patient. It won't take too much time. I will refund half of the Essence Crystals you paid." The vessel's controller said with a smile, still maintaining a calm demeanor. Then, he turned the vessel around.
However, in the next moment, his expression froze there. A forest-like killing intent enveloped him, sending chills down his spine.
"Keep going forward!" The icy voice came from the old man's mouth, making the vessel's controller fully believe Lin Feng's words.
"Open the Essence barrier. I'll leave. They will definitely chase me. That will save your lives!" Lin Feng remained motionless, continuing to transmit to the other party.
"Weng!"
The other party followed Lin Feng's advice. A flash of light appeared, and the Essence barrier opened again, causing the two old men's expressions to stiffen.
"You have some nerve!" One of the old men roared angrily, charging towards him to kill.
Almost at the same time, Lin Feng's body leaped into the air. The Void Ship appeared, and he stepped onto it, fleeing.
"What a cunning bastard. I'll chase him. You take care of the people here!" One of the old men took a step, leaping into the air. A Void Ship also appeared under his feet, as fast as lightning. The two of them instantly disappeared into the endless Wasteland Sea.
On that Void Ship in the Wasteland Sea, a bloody massacre began.
Lin Feng stood on his Void Ship, fleeing madly. A chill rose in his heart. The Yang Clan's methods were truly ruthless. They had actually sent two such powerful experts to kill him, and they planned to silence everyone. Who would know how they died? Dying in the Wasteland Sea, probably no one would even know.
A cold light flashed in his eyes. The Void Ship behind him followed closely, its speed no slower than his. They had obviously already considered that he had a Void Ship. This time, they were determined to kill him.
"Yang Zilan, Yang Ziye, I will take your lives!"
Lin Feng spat out a cold voice. Since the Yang Clan had come to kill him like this, he had nothing to hold back. If he didn't kill them, how could it be worthy of their repeated attempts on his life?
"Stop right there. You offended the Yang Clan. Do you think you can still live?" A cold voice came from behind. The other party's Void Ship was getting closer and closer to Lin Feng!
