Chapter 451: Kill Lin Feng?
At noon, the scorching sun shone down upon the earth. The desert jungle area was being roasted by the sun's heat, a fiery scene all around.
Yet at this moment, the Jing Ke tribe, under this blazing sunlight, appeared exceptionally quiet. In fact, it even faintly exuded a suffocating, oppressive atmosphere.
At the main entrance of the Jing Ke tribe, most of the tribe's people were gathered there. The tribe chief stood at the very front, and beside him was his daughter, Nona. However, Nona was now bound, her hair disheveled, her gaze weary and lifeless. But for Nona, weariness was not the most terrifying thing; what was terrifying was despair.
Being ordered bound by her own father and handed over to a demonic second young master—how could Nona not feel despair in her heart?
All the people of the Jing Ke tribe remained quietly in place, as if waiting for something.
Finally, with the rumbling sound of horse hooves, the hearts of the Jing Ke tribe members lifted, their eyes filled with tension.
Soon, rolling wind and sand swept in. Before the people of the Jing Ke tribe, many iron cavalry figures appeared.
"The Second Young Master of the Desert Wolf Clan has come to the Jing Ke tribe to propose marriage!" a loud voice rang out.
Immediately, many voices echoed in agreement. The Second Young Master of the Desert Wolf Clan, proposing marriage—this was essentially the same as outright robbery, just giving the Jing Ke tribe a name so they wouldn't be too embarrassed.
The iron cavalry gradually dispersed, and a young figure appeared before the people of the Jing Ke tribe. Sitting on horseback, he looked down arrogantly at the crowd below.
When he saw Nona bound there, the young man's eyes paused for a moment, then he said coldly, "Who is the chief of the Jing Ke tribe?"
The tribe chief stepped forward and bowed deeply to the young man before him, saying with utmost respect, "Honored Second Young Master, I am the chief of the Jing Ke tribe, Mu. I heard that the Second Young Master had taken a liking to my tribe's Nona. I am willing to offer Nona to you with both hands. From now on, she will be your woman."
But the Second Young Master frowned and said coldly, "Who told you to tie her up? I came here to propose marriage, not to seize a bride. Your daughter Nona, and the woman who was with Nona yesterday—let them both come with me and be my women."
"So that's it." Mu's heart tightened. This Second Young Master of the Desert Wolf Clan was indeed after Lin Feng's wife. Nona was just an extra.
"Honored Second Young Master, please allow me to explain. The reason I tied up Nona is that she let the woman you mentioned escape." Mu's body trembled even more, fear gripping his heart. The Desert Wolf Clan was the most domineering and ruthless force outside the city. If this Second Young Master refused to let them off, the Jing Ke tribe was finished.
Hearing Mu's words, the Second Young Master's face darkened, and a cold, sinister glint flashed in his eyes.
"Do you know why I deliberately came to propose marriage?" The Second Young Master's voice was hoarse, carrying an eerie tone that made Mu's heart tremble.
"Yesterday, I didn't directly seize her by force because I valued her, I cared about her. That's why I made it clear that I would come to the Jing Ke tribe at noon today to propose marriage. Otherwise, do you think your daughter is worthy of me personally coming to the Jing Ke tribe?" The Second Young Master's voice grew colder. "And now, you've let her go?"
Mu's body trembled violently with fear.
"Honored Second Young Master, this is all because I failed to teach my daughter properly. Nona was the one who let her go. I am willing to hand Nona over to the Second Young Master for any punishment or humiliation you see fit."
Hearing Mu's words, Nona's eyes turned red. Her father was saying he would hand her over to the Second Young Master for any humiliation—was this still her father?
"I will," the Second Young Master said coldly. "But before that, I will first destroy the Jing Ke tribe."
"Young Master!" Mu cried out, lifting his head to look at the other man. "Second Young Master, I am willing to hand over this woman. From now on, the Jing Ke tribe will obey your commands."
"Oh?" The Second Young Master paused. The Jing Ke tribe willingly submitting to his command was better than destroying them outright.
"What a shameless father."
At that moment, a cold, icy voice rang out, startling the crowd.
"Who?" Mu's gaze shifted, and he saw two figures walking slowly from a distance. It was Lin Feng and Meng Qing.
Seeing Lin Feng and Meng Qing, Mu's eyes flickered. The Second Young Master's eyes narrowed slightly, then a smile appeared on his face. He hadn't expected Lin Feng to deliver himself to his doorstep.
"What are you doing back here?" Nona shouted at Lin Feng. Lin Feng had already left—why had he come back? Wasn't this walking right into the tiger's mouth?
"I never planned to leave," Lin Feng said with a faint smile. The two of them walked slowly to the front of the crowd, looking coldly at Mu and the Second Young Master.
"Interesting," the Second Young Master said with a smile. Then he spoke, "Mu, you said you would be loyal to me. Now, go kill this guy and bring that woman to me."
"Your subordinate obeys," Mu replied. "Black Mountain, kill him."
"Yes, foster father." Black Mountain stepped forward, his gaze fixed on Lin Feng with cold murderous intent. Originally, Nona would have been his woman, but now things had turned out this way. Black Mountain blamed everything on Lin Feng. If not for meeting Lin Feng, perhaps they would never have encountered the Desert Wolf Clan.
Seeing the killing intent in Black Mountain's eyes, Lin Feng sneered and said, "You'd better not make a move. Anyone who tries to kill me will not be spared."
"Go to hell!"
Black Mountain roared and charged at Lin Feng, throwing a fierce punch with a howling wind.
"Impressive!" Many people from the Jing Ke tribe cheered. Black Mountain was indeed one of their tribe's bravest warriors, and his strength was formidable.
Soon, Black Mountain's fist reached Lin Feng, getting closer and closer to his chest. But Lin Feng seemed unable to react at all, standing there motionless.
"Kill him!" someone else cheered. Lin Feng was as good as dead.
Nona opened her mouth, her face pale. Why had Lin Feng come back to die? Black Mountain was one of the strongest in the Jing Ke tribe—how could Lin Feng possibly withstand him?
Sure enough, as Nona was thinking this, Black Mountain's fist slammed directly into Lin Feng's body. The people of the Jing Ke tribe all showed smiles. Black Mountain was indeed powerful—he could kill Lin Feng with a single blow.
"Boom!"
Black Mountain's fist struck Lin Feng's chest, lifting his clothes. But the smiles on the crowd's faces froze.
Lin Feng was still standing there, his eyes open, not moving an inch. His feet hadn't even shifted. His gaze was still turning.
Lin Feng wasn't dead. In fact, he was completely unharmed.
"Huh?"
Black Mountain was stunned too. He pushed his fist forward with force, but Lin Feng's body was like a mountain, completely unmoving. Black Mountain's gaze froze, and he looked up to see Lin Feng's mocking eyes.
"How is this possible? How can this be?"
Black Mountain's heart trembled violently. Not just him, but everyone else was stunned too. Lin Feng had taken Black Mountain's full-force punch to the chest and hadn't even reacted?
"Is this how you want me to die?" Lin Feng's voice rang out, calm and cold, making everyone's expressions stiffen.
It seemed no one had considered Lin Feng's strength.
"I told you to think carefully before making a move," Lin Feng said coldly. He slowly raised his hand and flicked a finger toward Black Mountain. Black Mountain's face tightened, and he quickly retreated.
But with his level of strength, could he escape from Lin Feng?
Lin Feng's finger landed directly on Black Mountain's throat. Black Mountain's body trembled, then slowly fell to the ground—dead.
"Black Mountain... is dead?"
The people of the Jing Ke tribe were stunned, their hearts trembling violently. The tribe chief stared at Lin Feng in a daze. It seemed he had completely overlooked Lin Feng's strength.
"Because of them, you want to kill me? Ridiculous," Lin Feng said mockingly. Mu wanted to kill him just because of a few words from the Second Young Master. Mu thought Lin Feng couldn't compare to the Second Young Master.
But if Mu knew that the Second Young Master was nothing but an ant before Lin Feng, he wondered what he would think. Lin Feng was somewhat looking forward to it.
