Zhang Zhicong's eyes widened. His entire true essence had already begun to circulate.
He was waiting for the moment Ling Feng made a move to counterattack.
But what Zhang Zhicong never expected was that.
Ling Feng was still ten meters away from him, and with just a slight extension of his hand, he had completely lost the ability to move!
That's right, Zhang Zhicong could only shout now.
But the moment his mouth made a sound, Ling Feng had already reached out and covered his mouth.
It shouldn't be described as covering.
It should be described as gripping!
Ling Feng's large hand had grabbed half of his face tightly.
Zhang Zhicong's eyes widened in terror, staring at Ling Feng as if he had seen a ghost.
His cultivation was even stronger than Sect Leader Hong's, and even if he encountered a true Nascent Soul stage expert, he should still have the ability to escape.
But facing Ling Feng, he was truly unable to escape at all.
Sect Leader Hong beside him trembled with fear, but at the same time, he felt a surge of excitement and anticipation.
This was great, he was going to have a companion!
Ling Feng didn't waste a single word with Zhang Zhicong. He directly refined the latter's soul blood and showed it off in front of Zhang Zhicong.
Then, he collected the soul blood.
After finishing everything, Ling Feng let go of Zhang Zhicong.
Zhang Zhicong's figure instantly retreated a hundred meters away.
But Ling Feng seemed not to have seen it, and said indifferently, "Come here!"
Zhang Zhicong's eyes widened, and he underwent intense internal struggle, but it was only a second of struggle before his figure teleported in front of Ling Feng.
And he knelt before Ling Feng.
"Zhang Zhicong pays his respects to Master!"
Ling Feng nodded and said coldly, "I believe you won't tell anyone about everything you saw, heard, and felt today, right?"
"Yes, this servant understands!"
Zhang Zhicong was clearly a smart person. Did he have any room to resist Ling Feng now?
There was no need to resist at all!
Unless he wanted to die.
However, when Zhang Zhicong looked at Sect Leader Hong beside him, his eyes were filled with malice.
If it weren't for Sect Leader Hong, how could he have fallen to this point?
At the same time, his heart was extremely uneasy. He definitely couldn't talk about today's events to the outside world.
However, Zhang Zhicong was also confused about what he actually knew.
It seemed like he didn't know anything from beginning to end, right?
He didn't even know who this master in front of him was, or what his name was!
"Now, you two must secretly join forces within the Myriad Sword Sect. You can act as you did before on the surface, but in secret, you must unite and rectify the forces!"
Ling Feng commanded indifferently.
Zhang Zhicong and Sect Leader Hong beside him were stunned.
They also exchanged glances subconsciously.
For a moment, both of them were extremely resistant.
But soon, they were awakened by Ling Feng's words and quickly bowed and nodded to Ling Feng.
"Do you know what I intend to do?"
Ling Feng asked indifferently.
These two were considered smart people, and Ling Feng didn't want to waste too much effort talking to them!
"Yes, this humble one understands!"
Zhang Zhicong quickly responded.
Sect Leader Hong, however, said tremblingly, "Master, you intend to... control the Myriad Sword Sect?"
These words made Zhang Zhicong tremble all over. Although Ling Feng's cultivation was not weak, controlling the entire Myriad Sword Sect might not be easy, right?
However, thinking that Ling Feng could forcibly collect others' soul blood and directly control their life and death, Zhang Zhicong still gasped.
Perhaps, it was truly possible to develop forces little by little through such methods, and ultimately conquer the entire Myriad Sword Sect was not difficult!
"Yes, within a month, I want to control the Myriad Sword Sect. You just need to secretly cultivate your confidant forces. I will notify you two of any orders!"
Ling Feng nodded faintly, his tone even more casual.
The two opposite him immediately trembled all over.
They both thought Ling Feng was crazy, controlling the entire Myriad Sword Sect within half a month?
Who did you think you were?
Even a Tribulation Stage expert, with strong suppression, might not be able to control everything so quickly!
But how could they dare to say anything, they could only nod repeatedly to Ling Feng.
In their hearts, they were extremely uneasy, and both felt that their lives were probably not long for this world!
Lin Shuainan also jumped out at this time. The danger had completely passed, so he was naturally no longer nervous.
"Heh heh, don't you two think this is impossible? Controlling your Myriad Sword Sect is not a difficult task! My elder brother always does what he says!"
The two did not understand Lin Shuainan, let alone that in their eyes, Lin Shuainan seemed to be below the Nascent Soul stage, so they did not take him seriously at all.
Ling Feng casually said to Lin Shuainan, "The Myriad Sword Sect has quite a few Nascent Soul stage experts!"
"What? Nascent Soul stage experts?" Lin Shuainan immediately shrank his neck, then gave Ling Feng a fawning smile.
"Heh heh, well, elder brother, let's not set our sights so high at the beginning, we can..."
"Enough nonsense, let's go!"
Ling Feng directly interrupted Lin Shuainan's nonsense and urged the two in front of him.
These two dared not speak nonsense and quickly led the way.
With the cover of these two, Ling Feng and Lin Shuainan entered the Myriad Sword Sect very smoothly.
However, when Lin Shuainan saw his thatched hut, he was completely unhappy.
"Elder brother, isn't this too much like a beginner's village? We are masters, after all. I saw that those handyman disciples just now were all at the Foundation Establishment stage. We're living in a shack with them? This is not proper!"
Lin Shuainan couldn't help but complain.
Ling Feng, on the other hand, calmly observed everything around him, familiarizing himself with everyone.
"Elder brother, I think that guy called Sect Leader Hong is playing us. His status should have given us a position as an inner disciple, why is it..."
Before Lin Shuainan could finish his nonsense.
Ling Feng coldly interrupted, "Here, once a person's identity is suspected, it's a big problem. Impersonating someone else's identity is also a big problem. And if you rise step by step from a handyman disciple, your identity will perfectly match you. This is for safety!"
Lin Shuainan's mouth twitched, and he shook his head.
"Elder brother, I thought you brought me in, and then you would go on a mad slaughter here, recruit followers, seize territory, become a big boss. Only when our cultivation resources increase can our cultivation speed keep up!"
Lin Shuainan's words were from the bottom of his heart. He hadn't dared to say them before, but now he couldn't hold back!
Ling Feng's expression was calm. Ling Feng was not surprised at all that Lin Shuainan had such thoughts.
"Now, haven't I already taken two followers? Do you think it's faster to improve your strength by being a rogue cultivator outside, killing people and recruiting followers, or by taking the Myriad Sword Sect under your command, then fighting for territory and resources with other sects, and expanding your influence?"
Lin Shuainan's eyes lit up, and he slapped his forehead, "That's right, elder brother, you're so smart..."
But soon Lin Shuainan shook his head, "However, the difficulty is a bit too high. The Myriad Sword Sect has many experts. How can we recruit them as followers so quickly!"
