# Chapter 1548: Humiliation

"Lin Feng!" Yu Emperor called out to the sleeping Lin Feng, but discovered that Lin Feng showed no reaction at all. This made Yu Emperor's brow furrow slightly. He tapped Lin Feng, but it was useless. Lin Feng had been sneak attacked by the power of Dream Law, falling into a deep sleep silently and without a sound.

Unable to wake Lin Feng no matter what, Yu Emperor's expression turned unpleasant. At this moment, Lin Feng's breathing was steady, not appearing injured, yet his eyes remained closed and he would not wake. Yu Emperor had no idea what was happening.

"How could this be?" Yu Emperor grew somewhat anxious. He had never encountered such a situation before, nor did he realize that Lin Feng had been attacked by Dream Law.

His figure flickering, Yu Emperor carried Lin Feng away from this place, planning to first find a place to settle down and assess the situation.

Yu Emperor did not know that in the void, a dark shadow had been following him all along, completely silent. As a Martial Emperor realm expert, Yu Emperor was unable to sense the other's presence.

Night gradually passed. The next day, battles continued on the square battle platforms. The fighting that day remained extremely fierce, with sparks of collision even stronger than the first day, a breathtaking spectacle. However, at the Qi Tian Fortress location, among the crowd standing guard, one person was conspicuously missing — Lin Feng was not there. He had vanished suddenly the previous night, his whereabouts unknown, and no one had been able to track him down.

The Purple-Robed Martial Emperor vaguely guessed that this matter was likely inseparable from Qi Yuchen. However, he could not do anything to Qi Yuchen either. After all, as a direct descendant of the Qi Clan, Qi Yuchen's status was not something Lin Feng could compare to. It was just that when the Lost Spirit Lord later blamed someone, the one to suffer would inevitably be him.

On the other side, Yu Emperor still saw no signs of Lin Feng waking up. He was truly becoming anxious. He went out to inquire everywhere about which powerful expert possessed strong healing abilities. In this Nine Immortal Palaces and Heavenly Fortress Region, the answer was naturally only one — the Medicine King Immortal Palace.

After the second day's battles ended, the various forces returned to their respective lodgings. Outside the Medicine King Immortal Palace's lodging, a figure approached, and on his back, he was actually carrying another person. It was none other than Yu Emperor bringing Lin Feng.

"Junior Yu Zhi requests an audience with the senior of Medicine King Immortal Palace," Yu Emperor announced in a clear voice, his steps stepping into the Medicine King Immortal Palace's lodging.

Figures flickered over. Seeing Yu Emperor, they frowned slightly. One young man said coldly, "Who are you, and what business do you have at Medicine King Immortal Palace?"

"Yu Zhi, I humbly request that a senior of Medicine King Immortal Palace lend a hand to help this junior save a person," Yu Emperor said calmly, his gaze steady. However, the young man's expression remained cold as he said flatly, "Medicine King Immortal Palace never treats outsiders casually. Go back!"

Yu Emperor's divine sense invaded the Medicine King Immortal Palace's lodging. He did not retreat; instead, his steps slowly advanced forward, heading in a certain direction.

This caused the Medicine King Immortal Palace disciples' faces to turn cold. "We told you to scram. Don't ignore our warning!"

Yu Emperor's steps not only did not stop, but actually quickened, causing the crowd's eyes to stiffen as they chased after Yu Emperor.

By this time, Yu Emperor had already arrived outside a certain room. His divine sense had detected that there was a very powerful expert inside this room.

"Junior Yu Zhi requests that the senior lend a hand to heal this injured person. This junior would be eternally grateful!" Yu Emperor bowed slightly toward the room. He knew that directly barging into Medicine King Immortal Palace was a rude act, but Yu Emperor had no other choice. Lin Feng remained unconscious, and Yu Emperor did not even know the nature of his injury. He could only watch Lin Feng sleeping endlessly, helpless to do anything, and had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure.

The space was silent for a moment, then the door of the room opened automatically. A white-bearded old man appeared, his eyes sharp as blades and sword edges, stabbing directly into Yu Emperor.

"You have quite the nerve!" The white-bearded old man's voice was icy cold as his gaze swept over Yu Emperor and Lin Feng. This man actually dared to directly invade his dwelling — reckless and presumptuous beyond measure.

"Kneel!" The white-bearded old man roared. Yu Emperor's expression stiffened, the lines on his face twitching. Then, with a thud, Yu Emperor fell to both knees. "This junior was bold. I am willing to give everything I have, begging the senior to heal this injured person."

Having said this, Yu Emperor directly offered a storage ring, sending it before the old man.

The white-bearded old man took the storage ring, his divine sense invading it to scan the contents within. Then he raised his head to look at Yu Emperor and said coldly, "You think this is enough to get me, the Emperor, to act? Utterly clueless. Considering this is your first offense, I'll take this storage ring's contents as punishment. Get lost!"

Yu Emperor suddenly raised his head, his face ugly. "Senior!"

"Scram!" The white-bearded old man released his terrifying aura, pressing it all down on Yu Emperor, causing Yu Emperor to be unable to even remain steady on his knees, his expression extremely unpleasant.

"Farewell!" A cracking sound rang out as the stone beneath Yu Emperor's knees shattered. Yu Emperor stood up, carrying Lin Feng's figure as he drifted away from this place, his back full of humiliation. What made Yu Emperor feel even more sorrowful in his heart was that Lin Feng's problem still remained unsolved. If the Medicine King Immortal Palace people refused to act, who else could help Lin Feng?

Yu Emperor flickered away, distancing himself from the Medicine King Immortal Palace's lodging.

At this moment, the dark shadow in the void still followed him, watching Yu Emperor's figure and sighing inwardly: "This man is truly loyal and righteous. I wonder what their relationship is."

Thinking this, the dark shadow stepped forward, instantly descending before Yu Emperor.

Seeing the figure that had suddenly appeared before him, Yu Emperor's gaze stiffened as he examined the black-clothed man. For him to appear before Yu Emperor without a sound, this person was undoubtedly a powerful expert.

"Hand him over to me," the black-clothed man said calmly to Yu Emperor. Yu Emperor's expression jolted with alarm. This black-clothed man was actually asking him for Lin Feng. But how could he easily hand Lin Feng over to the other party?

"Here is a pill. It should be able to heal your injuries," the black-clothed man said, taking out a pill and handing it to Yu Emperor.

Yu Emperor looked suspicious, then took the pill. Without hesitation, he swallowed it directly. He knew that with the other party's strength, if they truly wanted to harm him, there would be no need to use such methods.

However, after swallowing the pill, a flush of red crossed Yu Emperor's face. Feeling the changes within his body, he stared at the dark shadow before him in shock.

"Now, you should feel at ease handing him over to me, right?" the black-clothed man said to Yu Emperor with a smile.

"I beg the senior to heal him." Finding hope in a desperate situation, a flash of excitement crossed Yu Emperor's eyes. Based solely on the pill the other party had given him, it was clear that the black-clothed man was capable of helping Lin Feng. So this time, Yu Emperor did not hesitate. He took Lin Feng down from his back and handed him over to the black-clothed man.

"Rest assured," a voice rang in Yu Emperor's ears, and then he saw the figure before him had already vanished.

Standing there, Yu Emperor was somewhat dazed. Today's events could be described as dramatic ups and downs. Not long ago, he had suffered humiliation, but soon a mysterious expert had healed his injuries and taken Lin Feng away, promising to treat him.

"I wonder who that person is," Yu Emperor murmured to himself. Then his figure flickered in the darkness and disappeared.

In the following days, the battles on the square continued, and the clashes grew increasingly fierce. The powerful individuals gradually stood out, with every force having very outstanding young talents.

However, observant people noticed that in these past few days, the Divine Feather Martial Emperor beside the Defying Dust Martial Emperor had not been present. No one knew where he had gone, and his identity remained a mystery.

In a room within this buffer zone, Lin Feng's eyes slowly opened. He surveyed his surroundings, then immediately stood up, looking at the black-clothed figure before him.

"Divine Feather Martial Emperor!" Lin Feng's gaze suddenly fixed. This scene shocked him greatly. Why was Divine Feather Martial Emperor together with him? And at this moment, he was not at his own lodging.

"Take a look at what happened these past few days," Divine Feather Martial Emperor said to Lin Feng with a slight smile. Then a divine thought pierced into Lin Feng's brow, and the scenes that had occurred to him played out in his mind like images. This caused Lin Feng's expression to constantly shift. He had actually been ambushed by someone.

"Boom!" A terrifying cold light burst from Lin Feng's eyes. A powerful chill swept through the entire space. He saw that scene of his master being humiliated — that white-bearded old man making his master kneel, taking his master's treasures, yet telling Yu Emperor to scram. How utterly outrageous!

After a moment, this aura finally converged. Lin Feng bowed to Divine Feather Martial Emperor. "Thank you, senior, for the medicine to heal my master!"
