Chapter 863: Fury
The aura Lin Feng released at this moment was undoubtedly shocking to Yue Qingshan. The four great geniuses of the past, at Lin Feng's age, had only barely made a name for themselves in Snow Moon. Yet Lin Feng had already reached the Heavenly Martial Realm, stepping into that supreme realm that was, for the Snow Moon Kingdom, the same realm as the strongest man of Snow Moon's past, Duan Renhuang: Heavenly Martial.
This talent was simply astonishing.
"No. With Lin Feng's talent, he will pursue even higher realms and become an even more powerful existence. One day, he will soar above the heavens. I absolutely cannot tell him the truth." Yue Qingshan resolved in his heart, his fists clenched tightly, veins bulging. For Lin Feng's sake, for Lin Feng's future, Yue Menghe would not blame him, this father. Menghe herself would surely not want Lin Feng to know either.
"Tell me." Lin Feng's aura was powerful, his gaze pressing down on Yue Qingshan, making him feel as if his mind would collapse.
"Don't ask anymore, Lin Feng. Forget it. Cultivate well." Yue Qingshan spoke.
"Yangzhou City is this big, and there are so many people in the Imperial Palace. Surely not only you know about this. Soldiers take obeying orders as their foremost command. The Crimson Blood Army would not dare deceive me." Lin Feng said slowly, causing Yue Qingshan's expression to stiffen.
Indeed, Yangzhou City was this large, with so many people here. Such a major event had happened before. As long as Lin Feng asked, he would know. This was hardly a secret. Could it be hidden?
"Lin Feng, promise me. If I tell you, you won't act rashly or impulsively." Yue Qingshan finally relented, staring at Lin Feng.
"Fine, I promise." Lin Feng replied without any hesitation.
"This matter starts from the day you fell into demonic possession. Back then, you led the army out of Broken Blade Heavenly Pass for Liu Canglan, leaving corpses strewn across the fields. The people of Lie Yun Kingdom suffered countless casualties and held a grudge. It wasn't just Lie Yun Kingdom, but also Tian Feng Kingdom. You had also made enemies with the people of Tian Feng Kingdom during the Snow Domain Grand Competition. After you fell into demonic possession and left, they both came to Snow Moon."
Yue Qingshan spoke slowly, and his words made Lin Feng's heart sink, a fierce chill surging through him. Sure enough, if you don't uproot the weeds, they will grow back to cause endless trouble.
"What happened next?" Lin Feng's heart was tense with anxiety.
"Both kingdoms dispatched experts to attack the former Snow Moon Imperial City, occupying the former Imperial Palace. Then they attacked Yangzhou City, claiming they wanted to capture Xinye alive. They even declared... that they wouldn't let Xinye be a widow, along with many filthy words." Yue Qingshan's words made Lin Feng's aura grow colder and colder.
"With the experts from both kingdoms acting like this, your parents and I naturally couldn't agree. But the Heavenly Martial experts from both kingdoms had mobilized and came to Snow Moon together. Even though your father was also a Heavenly Martial expert, his injuries from last time hadn't fully healed. He fought two of them and was ultimately defeated. As for my cultivation, it was also crippled in that battle!"
"How are my parents?" Lin Feng asked, extremely tense.
"The people from both kingdoms took over the former Snow Moon Imperial Palace as their temporary residence. They took your parents away, claiming they wouldn't come to Yangzhou City anymore. They demanded that we in Snow Moon personally deliver Xinye, the wife of the Snow Moon Monarch, there, before them... Otherwise, they would kill your parents. They used this to severely humiliate Snow Moon and humiliate you." Yue Qingshan's voice was filled with intense anger, veins bulging, and a faint killing intent seeped from him.
"Lin Feng, it's all my fault. I'm not worthy of being your wife." Duan Xinye felt immensely guilty. She had often wondered if she was a jinx who would harm those around her.
Lin Feng held Duan Xinye's hand and shook his head. "You were just an excuse for them. Without you, they would have found other ways to humiliate Snow Moon and humiliate me."
"Yes, we all know that too. So even if we sent Xinye to them, it would only bring more humiliation." Yue Qingshan felt great pain. It was his own incompetence, watching all this happen, powerless to do anything.
"How are my father and mother now? Have they been harmed?" Lin Feng was most worried about his father and mother's safety.
"No, not yet. The deadline hasn't arrived. They hung Lin Hai and Menghe outside the city gate of the former Imperial City, exposing them to the sun, to humiliate Snow Moon." Yue Qingshan's eyes were slightly bloodshot.
At that moment, a terrifying aura spread from Lin Feng's body. This aura was filled with icy coldness and slaughter, as if it would destroy everything.
Yue Qingshan's body stiffened. Under this aura, he felt as if he would suffocate to death, but he still roared, "Lin Feng, you promised me. You can't act rashly. You are the hope for all of us."
"I know. I won't act rashly. I will make them pay a price, a price they cannot bear." Lin Feng's mouth spat out icy words. His gaze turned to the void, and he roared angrily, "Snow Eagle!"
The furious roar shot into the clouds, shaking the entire Imperial Palace until it went numb. Then, in the sky, a terrifying demonic aura of the highest order soared upward. Seven incredibly demonic figures descended from the clouds and landed around Lin Feng.
"Boom, boom..." The sounds seemed to crack the ground. These seven figures stood there, exuding a terrifying aura that made Yue Qingshan's body tremble incessantly.
Heavenly Martial, all of them were Heavenly Martial. And this aura, such terrifying demonic aura. These were Heavenly Demons!
"Young Master!" The seven Snow Eagles landed, bowing to Lin Feng, shaking Yue Qingshan's mind until it was dizzy.
Young Master. Seven terrifying Heavenly Demons. They called Lin Feng... Young Master!
Heavens, what had Lin Feng encountered outside after falling into demonic possession? What kind of fortune had he gained?
Yue Qingshan felt as if he couldn't think anymore, his whole body numb with shock. Seven Heavenly Demons, beings he could only look up to, were bowing to Lin Feng, their gazes respectful, calling him Young Master.
Many Crimson Blood soldiers who had rushed over upon hearing the commotion also saw Lin Feng. They saw the former genius of Snow Moon Kingdom, their general, being addressed as Young Master by seven terrifying existences.
Standing nearby, Liu Fei was also speechless, utterly shocked. Every time Lin Feng appeared before her, he brought a different kind of shock, but each time, it truly shook her to the core.
"One of you, transform into human form. That's enough." Lin Feng said. Then, one of the Snow Eagles soared into the air, transforming into a demonic form. Its enormous snow-white wings spread wide, its body exuding an incredibly terrifying aura that rolled down from the sky with crushing pressure, demonic aura surging to the heavens.
The other six Snow Eagles shot into the sky, disappearing back into the clouds as if they had never appeared.
"Wait for my news." Lin Feng stepped forward, landing on the back of the Snow Eagle. The Snow Eagle spread its wings, and a demonic aura swept across this new Imperial Palace, vanishing from the crowd's sight in an instant.
Watching the departing Snow Eagle and Lin Feng, Yue Qingshan was still in a daze. It took a long time before he digested this shocking truth. Tears of relief streamed down his aged face. The younger generation was formidable. It seemed he had been worrying too much.
Over Yangzhou City, a terrifying demonic aura swept past, shocking everyone. Many had never seen a Heavenly Demon, a powerful demonic beast capable of transformation, equivalent to a Heavenly Martial level existence.
And they saw that young man from before, the genius who had emerged from Yangzhou City: Lin Feng.
Lin Feng was riding a Heavenly Demon away. No one knew what kind of earth-shattering battle would unfold at the former Imperial City with Lin Feng's arrival.
At this moment, many wished they could sprout wings and fly to that former Imperial City to see what was happening.
At the same time, news of Lin Feng's return spread to every corner once again. The legend of that genius continued. In the past, Lin Feng had fallen into the demonic path, left Snow Moon Kingdom, and his life or death was unknown.
Now, the king had returned. The long-vacant throne of the Snow Moon Monarch finally had its master. Monarch Lin Feng had returned. And this time, his cultivation had stepped into another realm, the same terrifying realm as Duan Renhuang in the past. Moreover, Duan Renhuang was already middle-aged, incomparable to Lin Feng. At Lin Feng's age, many hadn't even stepped into the Mysterious Martial Realm.
Lin Feng's mount was now a Heavenly Demon, a truly terrifying great demon. According to news from the Imperial Palace, these transformable Heavenly Demons called Lin Feng... Young Master!
Lin Feng, which terrifying force had he become the Young Master of?
Could it be a major force from a lower-grade empire like the Dragon Mountain Empire?
