Seven Star Divine Fish

Chapter 278 Zheng Bowen in Action

Liu Mengyao said, then got up and went to the changing room.

After Liu Mengyao left, Lin Feng supported himself and sat up from the bed.

He tried to circulate the Heaven and Earth Creation Art and was shocked to find that the true qi in his body was almost depleted.

The most terrifying thing was that the true qi was still rapidly draining. No matter how Lin Feng circulated his energy, the rate of loss was greater than the rate of growth.

"Bastard!"

Feeling the abnormality in his body, Lin Feng clenched his fists so hard that they creaked.

Without a doubt, his current state was caused by Feng Jingyao's sneak attack.

Although he didn't know what drug Feng Jingyao had used, Lin Feng was certain that it could cause the loss of one's cultivation.

If this continued, his true qi would soon be insufficient to meet demand, and he would be no different from an ordinary person!

Realizing this, Lin Feng was angry, but even more troubled.

In his current pathetic state, let alone protecting Liu Mengyao, he wouldn't even be able to protect himself if he encountered a powerful expert.

Just as Lin Feng was brooding, the door to the changing room opened, and Liu Mengyao, wearing a sexy nightgown, emerged.

The black lace sheer dress, under the dim yellow light, revealed the woman's graceful figure.

Her waist, which could be held in a single grasp, and her ethereal, otherworldly face made Liu Mengyao look both sexy and charming.

What's more, Liu Mengyao had actually put on those black stockings with English letters.

Her slender legs, encased in the black stockings, were incredibly alluring.

Lin Feng looked at Liu Mengyao before him and for a moment forgot to breathe.

He hadn't expected Liu Mengyao to actually wear the stockings for him to see.

"Do they look good? Do you like them? Do you want to touch them?"

Liu Mengyao was very pleased with Lin Feng's stunned expression. She walked over, sat on a chair, and placed her leg, wrapped in black silk, on the bed.

Lin Feng watched her slender leg up close, and a faint scent of perfume wafted into his nostrils.

"Miss, is it really okay?"

Lin Feng was actually a little eager to touch.

"Yes, but you need to answer my question."

Liu Mengyao smiled, placed her leg on Lin Feng, and feigned an air of being at his mercy.

"Alright, ask away."

Lin Feng readily agreed.

"Lin Feng, tell me, what exactly is wrong with your body? What poison did Feng Jingyao give you, is it very dangerous?"

Liu Mengyao frowned, genuinely concerned about Lin Feng's health.

"Miss, I was actually about to tell you about this. Feng Jingyao's hidden weapon contained a chemical agent that can cause the loss of one's cultivation. My cultivation has greatly diminished now, my strength is less than a third of my peak."

"It's not dangerous, but I no longer have the ability to protect the people around me!"

Lin Feng replied truthfully. He needed to give Liu Mengyao a heads-up, to let her know his current true situation.

"I understand. You can touch them now, but you also have to promise me something."

Liu Mengyao nodded, placing her tender foot, wrapped in black silk, into Lin Feng's palm.

"Okay, tell me. As long as it's not too much, I can promise you."

Lin Feng gently caressed Liu Mengyao's foot. The wonderful texture of the silk stocking and the allure of Liu Mengyao's foot made him feel a bit aroused.

Liu Mengyao felt Lin Feng's large hand caressing her foot. Although she felt a subtle, intoxicating sensation, she pretended to be unfazed and said, "Since your cultivation is not what it used to be, you promise me that you will no longer have any conflicts with Feng Jingyao and the others from now on!"

"Also, you must keep some distance from Tang Wan in the future. It's best not to have any more contact with her!"

"You should know that Zheng Bowen has resented you for a long time because of Tang Wan. You can't be so infatuated with her just because she's beautiful and sexy. Anything she can give you, I can give you too!"

Liu Mengyao admonished him earnestly.

"Miss, am I the kind of person who gets infatuated with women? Tang Wan and I are not what you think. We just help each other. If you say that, I'll almost be a pervert!"

Lin Feng was speechless.

"Aren't you?"

Liu Mengyao retorted with a smile, pointing her slender finger at Lin Feng, who was playing with her foot, and said sternly, "We and Ke Ke know exactly what kind of person you are. It's normal for men to be lustful, but you absolutely must not have any more dealings with Tang Wan, otherwise..."

"Otherwise what?"

Lin Feng asked curiously.

"Otherwise, it will be difficult for me to protect you!"

As Liu Mengyao said this, a hint of melancholy clouded her brows.

"You protect me?"

Lin Feng was stunned. He found it hard to imagine these words coming from Liu Mengyao.

"Lin Feng, you yourself said that your strength is not as good as before, and Tang Wan is a woman whom Zheng Bowen pursues relentlessly. If you anger Zheng Bowen again, he will definitely not let you off!"

"Even if I am the eldest daughter of the Liu family, my grandfather is Liu Tianzheng, and my father is Liu Weimin, it will still be difficult for me to contend with Zheng Bowen!"

"I hope you can understand my predicament, okay? Is it okay if I beg you?"

Liu Mengyao gazed at Lin Feng with a hint of pleading, her beautiful eyes glistening with tears.

Lin Feng was caressing Liu Mengyao's foot, and he had been enjoying it. But at this moment, seeing the woman beg him to protect himself, Lin Feng was stunned.

After all, Liu Mengyao was a pampered young lady. When had she ever begged anyone?

Lin Feng felt a sense of defeat, a man's defeat.

He had actually fallen to the point where he needed a woman to protect him, and she was his superior. This was truly humiliating!

Lin Feng rubbed his head in distress. Although he felt ashamed, he was also deeply moved.

All along, he had been the one silently protecting Liu Mengyao or others around him.

No one had ever offered to protect him.

In fact, there were very few people in this world who could protect him.

But hearing these words from Liu Mengyao's mouth, it was impossible for Lin Feng not to be touched.

Seeing Liu Mengyao's earnest and worried expression, Lin Feng released her foot and took her soft hand.

"Miss, I appreciate your sentiment. My strength is not what it used to be, but I will be able to recover it in the future. So, let me protect you."

Lin Feng said very seriously.

Liu Mengyao frowned, "Then you mean you don't want to keep your distance from Tang Wan, you still have her in your heart and can't bear to part with her?"

"Lin Feng, I already said, anything Tang Wan can give you, I can give you too!"

"I'm already letting you touch my feet, and you're still not satisfied?"

Liu Mengyao felt very uncomfortable. This was the first time she had actively allowed a man to take liberties with her.

"Ah!? I..."

Lin Feng hadn't expected Liu Mengyao to think that way.

For a moment, he was truly at a loss for words.

Meanwhile, at the Imperial Grandeur Business Club, those who entered and exited were all people of prominent status.

At this moment, in a luxurious private room costing eighty-eight thousand yuan per night.

Zheng Bowen sat in a seat made of first-class cabin material, his legs crossed, sipping the fine wine in his glass.

On either side of him sat Feng Jingyao, Lei Lingyun, and Jiang Mingyu.

"Brother Jingyao, Youlong has told me about how you helped me. I must thank you for what happened before."

Zheng Bowen raised his wine glass and toasted Feng Jingyao. He then asked, "Brother Jingyao, I heard from Youlong that you crippled Lin Feng's martial arts. Is that true?"

"Of course. He took my sect's unique secret medicine. If nothing unexpected happens, his cultivation is almost gone now. He's not much stronger than an ordinary person!"

Feng Jingyao said in a deep voice. At this moment, when he spoke of Lin Feng, there was a hint of apprehension in his eyes.

If it weren't for his master's timely intervention, he would have died by Lin Feng's palm.

"That's wonderful! This bastard finally got what he deserved. Now, let's see how he can fight against us!"

Lei Lingyun was extremely excited, still remembering how Lin Feng had impersonated Sun Pengfei and beaten him up.

"Brother Jiang, I heard you also have a grudge against Lin Feng. Now that something like this has happened to him, don't you want to take the opportunity to settle the score?"

Zheng Bowen looked at Jiang Mingyu, who had remained silent.

"I, I wish I could tear him into eight pieces! But, I can't do anything to him right now, so I have to rely on you guys for revenge!"

Jiang Mingyu said indignantly.

"Why? You're the young master of the Jiang family. Do you have to be so timid? He's already a cripple now. What are you worried about?"

Lei Lingyun was very confused.
