Once every half year!
A trace of pity arose in Lin Feng's heart. The kind of cold that could freeze a person to death — Meng Qing had to endure it once every half year. He truly didn't know how she managed to get through it.
"If anything happens in the future, tell me immediately. I can help you resolve that cold and let you avoid suffering."
Lin Feng said to Meng Qing. The Heaven Devouring Martial Soul could not only devour the cold and relieve Meng Qing's pain, but also transform that icy cold power into his own martial soul, simultaneously increasing his strength.
The mysterious and unfathomable Heaven Devouring Martial Soul was the nemesis of that cold power.
"You still haven't told me what exactly happened that day?"
Meng Qing stared into Lin Feng's eyes. Enduring the erosion of the cold was too painful. Meng Qing was mentally and physically exhausted, and when Lin Feng devoured the cold, gradually making her body comfortable, she had actually fallen into a deep sleep, completely unaware of what had happened.
"Then you tell me first — where does this cold come from?" Lin Feng asked in return.
"I was born with it."
Meng Qing replied, causing Lin Feng's gaze to freeze. Born with it?
Lin Feng had also heard that many people had special physiques, different from ordinary people. He hadn't expected Meng Qing to be one of them — born with such terrifying cold energy on her body.
"Now will you tell me?" Meng Qing said.
Lin Feng smiled slightly. With a thought, the Heaven Devouring Snake Soul emerged behind him. Compared to before, the small snake shadow from the past had transformed into a giant snake, coiled on Lin Feng's shoulder. Its eyes seemed almost alive, staring at Meng Qing.
"Oh?"
Meng Qing's gaze focused slightly on the small snake shadow, and a rare ripple appeared in her eyes.
"This is my martial soul. I don't know what kind of snake it is, but it can devour the cold energy released by your body and make that cold power serve me."
Lin Feng said. A rare sharpness flashed through Meng Qing's eyes as she stared intently at the snake soul.
But soon, Meng Qing's eyes returned to their usual indifference. She nodded slightly and said, "No wonder. A very powerful martial soul."
Lin Feng nodded in agreement, somewhat frustrated. "It should be a snake-type beast martial soul, but I don't even know what kind of snake it is."
"You'll find out naturally in the future," Meng Qing said.
"I hope so." Lin Feng nodded slightly. "I'll go out now. You rest well. Call me if anything happens."
Meng Qing softly acknowledged. Lin Feng stood up and walked away, but before leaving, his hand mischievously ruffled Meng Qing's hair, making her body tremble slightly.
Turning around, Meng Qing watched Lin Feng's retreating figure, her brows tightly furrowed.
"That was... a snake soul?"
Meng Qing murmured to herself. Somehow, she felt that the appearance of that martial soul and Lin Feng's description resembled a certain legendary demonic beast. It was just that something seemed to be missing.
That legendary demonic beast should have had nine heads, and it didn't belong to the snake category — it belonged to the dragon!
...
Early morning, cloudless.
Heavenly One Academy seemed more bustling than usual. Many people who met were discussing something.
Especially among the General Star System crowd, the words "Cultivation Tower" seemed to appear frequently in their conversations, along with "Black Demon."
At this moment, two figures walked along the main road of Heavenly One Academy, chatting with each other.
"They say the man's name is Lin Feng. The day he arrived at the academy, he stirred up quite a commotion — slapped the faces of Left Qiu and Bai Ze from the Aristocrat System, making the Aristocrat System lose all face," one of them said with relish. News of what happened at the Cultivation Tower yesterday had already spread. Partly it was because Lin Feng had killed someone in the Cultivation Tower, violating the academy's rules.
Of course, if it were only that, the news wouldn't have spread so quickly. Everything was because this matter was connected to one person — Black Demon!
Anything that involved one of Heavenly One Academy's Ten Great Powerhouses would spread like wildfire. Although Black Demon was at the bottom of the Ten Great Powerhouses, his strength was formidable — that went without saying.
"Where did you get that information? Slapping those aristocratic brats' faces on the first day at the academy is indeed arrogant, but this time he made a mistake. Cui Ting had already warned him that the man was Black Demon's younger brother, yet he still dared to kill. This is undoubtedly slapping Black Demon's face. Lin Feng will definitely regret it. Black Demon is not someone he can afford to provoke."
"That's right. None of the academy's Ten Great Powerhouses are easy to mess with. Lin Feng is in for trouble."
The other person deeply agreed.
Just then, a commotion suddenly arose not far away. The two speakers looked up and saw many figures gathering together, heading toward a certain place.
A hundred meters ahead of that crowd, several figures were slowly advancing. Seeing one of those figures, the two who had been speaking froze.
"Black Demon!"
The figure walking at the very front was none other than Black Demon, one of Heavenly One Academy's Ten Great Disciples.
"So many people following. Looks like there's something interesting to watch."
The two exchanged glances, then lifted their feet and merged into the flowing crowd.
Black Demon's pace wasn't fast, but each step was extremely steady. Before long, the ancient castle where the General Star System disciples lived appeared not far ahead.
And at that moment, from within the castle, a group of figures slowly walked out.
"Damn it. Lin Feng — that's the man from the Cultivation Tower that day."
Yuan Shan saw the approaching crowd and muttered. Cui Ting was walking in front, standing beside a cold, gloomy young man. Seeing that gloomy young man, a name naturally came to Yuan Shan's mind.
Lin Feng didn't stop his steps. The two sides soon met, and only then did they stop moving forward.
Glancing at Cui Ting, Lin Feng's gaze slowly shifted, finally landing on the gloomy young man. Two words came from his mouth.
"Black Demon!"
Black Demon swept a cold, indifferent glance at Lin Feng, then shifted his gaze away, landing on Wen Aoxue beside Lin Feng, completely ignoring Lin Feng.
"His life — I want it."
Black Demon said calmly, his tone very flat. But he wasn't speaking to Lin Feng — he was speaking to Wen Aoxue. As if Lin Feng's life belonged to him, and Lin Feng had no right to refuse.
A smile appeared on Wen Aoxue's handsome face. He shook his head calmly. "He is my friend now."
"This is a matter between him and me. In the Cultivation Tower, he killed my younger brother and slapped my face. I'm sure you've heard about it. This matter — you shouldn't interfere, should you?"
Although Black Demon didn't care about Lin Feng, he seemed very wary of Wen Aoxue. This made Lin Feng glance at Wen Aoxue with surprise. This man, even more beautiful than a woman, seemed quite extraordinary!
"I did hear about it. Your younger brother broke the rules first. He wasn't strong enough himself, yet he still sought help, and ended up costing his own life. He brought it upon himself."
"He brought it upon himself. But Lin Feng — a newcomer to the academy — slapped my face in front of so many people. Shouldn't he die?"
Black Demon continued, making the crowd's hearts tremble. Black Demon's reason for wanting to kill Lin Feng wasn't that Lin Feng had killed his younger brother — it was simply that Lin Feng hadn't stopped after hearing his name, causing him to lose face.
To someone like him, face was more important than many things — including Lin Feng's life.
"You know he's a newcomer to the academy. You, Black Demon, bullying a newcomer — don't you feel ashamed?"
"Since he did it, he has to pay the price. Even if that price is his life."
Black Demon ignored Wen Aoxue's words and said coldly, "You can protect him for a while, but I don't believe you can follow him forever. As long as you're not by his side, killing him will be easy for me. Who can stop me?"
After speaking, Black Demon's gaze shifted from Wen Aoxue and landed on Lin Feng.
"You did enjoy a moment of satisfaction. It felt good, it was glorious. But have you ever thought that this moment of satisfaction would require your life in exchange?" Black Demon's voice was cold and deep. "Or do you think you can hide behind Wen Aoxue for the rest of your life?"
"Are you done?"
Seeing that Black Demon had finally stopped, Lin Feng's indifferent voice came from his lips. His expression showed no trace of fluctuation. The Black Demon before him — one of Heavenly One Academy's Ten Great Disciples — seemed unable to put much pressure on him.
Black Demon's eyes froze at Lin Feng's words, then he revealed a cold smile. "What if I am done?"
