# Chapter 978: Tearing Through

"Just a mere beast, daring to spout nonsense here," Qiu Junluo said coldly. This heavenly demon Qiongqi actually dared to defame Yang Ziye's reputation. If this spread, Yang Ziye's name would be ruined, and they would have trouble facing the Yang family.

"I'm spouting nonsense? Then why are so many of you from prominent families chasing my companion? Ridiculous. My companion saved the Yang family's young lady on a deserted island, the two fell in love, and had intimate relations. There's no need for you to hold such a grudge, is there? You came chasing right after we left the Yang residence. Too impatient."

Qiongqi was audacious, speaking recklessly without restraint, leaving Lin Feng speechless. What was this bastard trying to do...

"Pseudo-Emperor." Lin Feng transmitted his voice, but Qiongqi completely ignored him, saying, "Kid, don't worry. Since I, the Emperor, brought you out to roam the continent, I can't let you suffer any grievances. What the Yang family gave you, I, the Emperor, guarantee I'll get back for you."

Lin Feng rolled his eyes. Had this bastard taken the wrong medicine? Why had he suddenly become so excited upon arriving in the Eight Wastelands Realm?

"Wicked beast, talking nonsense, daring to slander Miss Ziye." The faces of the five men darkened, killing intent radiating from them.

"You're the beast. Willing to be the Yang family's grandson for a woman, being enslaved by them. Pitiful creature, and that woman doesn't care about you at all. At most, she uses you occasionally." Qiongqi stared at the five opponents, feeling their killing intent, and said coldly, "Go ahead, make your move. Kill us, and no one will know about what happened on that deserted island."

Qiu Junluo and the others were so angry their faces turned pale, extremely ugly. At this moment, they didn't even know what to do. Even making a move to kill Lin Feng and Qiongqi had become difficult. If they really killed them, Yang Ziye's reputation would be ruined, and they would be silencing witnesses. In that case, not only would they not receive the Yang family's gratitude, but even entering the Yang family's gate again would be difficult.

They never expected to encounter such a bastard demon beast, speaking recklessly, daring to say anything.

Seeing the ugly expressions on the opponents' faces, Lin Feng glanced at Qiongqi in surprise. This bastard was playing mind games with them.

"Brother Junluo, what are you doing?" At this moment, two figures drifted over from afar. It was the Yang siblings, Yang Zilan and Yang Ziye.

Yang Ziye's face was ugly. She didn't expect that the Qiongqi beside Lin Feng would defame her reputation. However, Yang Zilan's face still carried a gentle smile, showing nothing unusual.

"Brother Lin, I didn't expect Brother Junluo and the others to care so much about Ziye's Void Ship that they would chase after you. I hope Brother Lin won't blame them." Yang Zilan played the role of a peacemaker, saying to Lin Feng, "Brother Lin helped Ziye on the deserted island and brought her back to the Yang army. The Yang family is extremely grateful. Since Brother Lin likes the Void Ship, it naturally belongs to you. Brother Junluo, how could you act on your own and target Brother Lin?"

The crowd seemed to vaguely understand something, but they still weren't clear about what had actually happened.

Lin Feng looked at Yang Zilan indifferently. What a good actor, able to play it so calmly, admirable. And with this one sentence, he directly pinned a big hat on Lin Feng, making people think he coveted Yang Ziye's Void Ship, which was why Qiu Junluo was chasing him.

"Brother Yang, this man relies on having some favor with Ziye and acts so despicably, even taking Ziye's Void Ship. The Yang family may not mind, but we can't stand by and watch." Qiu Junluo and the others naturally knew how to cooperate. The two sang in harmony, turning Lin Feng into a despicable person who coveted the Void Ship.

Lin Feng coldly watched these hypocritical people. So what if they were from prominent families? They were just as dark and despicable, even worse.

"See? You don't think the Yang family didn't know about them chasing you, do you? Even the woman you saved is silently watching all this. So you don't need to be polite either." Qiongqi transmitted to Lin Feng. Lin Feng's expression instead calmed down, and even a faint smile appeared on his face.

He had seen plenty of ugly faces in this world. He should be used to it. He had just thought too highly of the Yang family. In the end, they were all the same.

"Young Master Yang, Miss Yang Ziye." At this moment, Lin Feng called out with a smile, causing the Yang siblings' expressions to stiffen. Then Yang Zilan smiled at Lin Feng, "Brother Lin, do you have any instructions?"

"Lin wishes to ask a few questions. Is that alright?" Lin Feng said.

"Brother Lin, please ask freely." Yang Zilan remained polite.

"Let me ask Miss Yang first." Lin Feng smiled calmly, looking at Yang Ziye, "Miss Yang, at that time in the Wasteland Sea, your Void Ship crashed on a deserted island, and you encountered a subordinate's betrayal who injured you and even nearly violated you. Is that true or not?"

"Yes, but they didn't succeed." Yang Ziye immediately replied.

"They indeed didn't succeed. But Miss Yang was already injured and couldn't defeat them. Why didn't they succeed?" Lin Feng asked again.

"You saved me." Yang Ziye said with a dark face.

"That's right, I saved you." Lin Feng smiled faintly. The crowd suddenly understood. So that was it. Lin Feng had saved Yang Ziye on a deserted island. The Yang family's young lady had almost been violated by her subordinate. That was explosive news.

"Let me ask Miss Yang again. On that deserted island, did I ever make any improper advances toward you?"

"Of course not." Yang Ziye quickly replied.

Lin Feng chuckled lightly. When it came to matters concerning her reputation, she clarified quickly enough.

"Then, Miss Yang, your Void Ship was already destroyed at that time. How did you return to the Eight Wastelands Realm and the Yang family?" Lin Feng continued pressing.

Yang Ziye's expression was unpleasant, but she still replied, "You repaired the Void Ship and sent me back to the Yang family."

"Heh heh, thank you, Miss Yang, for telling the truth." Lin Feng's gaze slowly turned, landing on Yang Zilan, and said, "Now I want to ask Young Master Yang. Without me, Miss Yang's Void Ship would have been scrap, left to rot on that deserted island. Moreover, Miss Yang would never have been able to cross the deserted island and return to the Yang family. Am I right, Young Master Yang?"

"Brother Lin's kindness to Ziye, the Yang family will remember." Yang Zilan said gently.

Lin Feng sneered inwardly and continued, "The abandoned Void Ship was repaired by me. If I had chosen to leave directly, the Void Ship would have been mine, and Miss Yang would have remained trapped on the deserted island. But I didn't. Instead, I brought Miss Yang out of the deserted island. From then on, the Void Ship belongs to me. Is that too much?"

"Naturally." Yang Zilan still smiled, but killing intent had already arisen in his heart. He wished he could immediately shut Lin Feng's mouth.

"Is that so? Then why are the things Young Master Yang does different from what you say?" Lin Feng's expression suddenly turned cold, and he said sarcastically, "I sent Miss Yang back to the Yang family. What treatment did I receive? Young Master Yang said I took Miss Yang's Void Ship, then fobbed me off with Essence Crystals. Young Master Yang, what do you take me, Miss Yang's lifesaver, for?"

"Brother Lin misunderstands. I only wanted to express a little gratitude, thanking Brother Lin for helping Ziye." The smile on Yang Zilan's face gradually faded.

"Is that so? Then why, as soon as I stepped out of the Yang residence, did these people follow me and directly try to kill me? Young Master Yang, how do you explain that?" Lin Feng pressed.

The crowd began to whisper among themselves. Now they finally understood the whole story. So that was it.

"I never expected Brother Junluo and the others to care so much about Ziye, even chasing after you over the Void Ship. This is all my fault." Yang Zilan stared at Lin Feng. Although he said it was his fault, there was no apology in his tone.

"Is this interesting?" Lin Feng sneered at Yang Zilan, then his voice turned completely cold, "The matter is already this clear. There's no need to keep pretending. If you hadn't deliberately instigated them, they wouldn't even have known about the Void Ship. Without your tacit approval, would they have come to chase and kill me? Your Yang family repays kindness with enmity, and on top of that, you put on this hypocritical act. It's disgusting to watch. Now that I've made things clear, you don't need to keep pretending. Go ahead and kill me!"

"The Yang family. What a fine Yang family clan!"

Lin Feng's words were filled with deep sarcasm, completely tearing through this layer of paper!
