The mysterious man, upon hearing Ling Feng's probing questions, felt his pupils constrict violently. A sinister smile then curved his lips.
*Crack!*
With a slight exertion of force from Ling Feng's hand, the mysterious man's shoulder bone was directly crushed!
"Ah! Hahaha..."
After a scream of agony, the mysterious man burst into maniacal laughter, as if completely indifferent to his own life or death.
He then stared defiantly at Ling Feng, saying, "Haha, so what if you've mastered the martial arts of various schools? So what if you've cultivated to the Grandmaster realm of Hua Jin?"
"Ling Feng! I'm telling you, if you continue to investigate, you will surely die! You have no way out, and no one can save you, haha..."
Ling Feng's brow furrowed slightly. This person, who had just shrieked in fear at Yang Fei, was now so deranged.
This was no ordinary person!
He was a trained death warrior!
"Do you want to die?" Ling Feng's eyes blazed with killing intent.
He was almost certain that all the people who had come looking for him before were dispatched by this unidentified death warrior.
However, this person was not the mastermind.
In fact, Ling Feng wasn't even sure if this person could truly reach the mastermind!
Facing Ling Feng's murderous gaze, the mysterious death warrior became even more frenzied. "Haha, you are a fool who courts death! You have no idea who you are facing. It's a god that you, a mortal, can never provoke! This matter is not for you to meddle in!"
His voice trailed off slightly, and a trickle of blood began to flow from the corner of the mysterious death warrior's mouth.
Yang Fei, standing nearby, snorted coldly.
"Poisoning yourself? Hmph, a mere beast!"
The mysterious death warrior glanced at Yang Fei, then returned his gaze to Ling Feng. Facing death, he seemed to possess a frenzied excitement.
"Ling Feng, do you know the consequences of angering a god? Haha, the consequence of angering a god is divine punishment!"
"How can you resist divine punishment? You have no way out but death! Haha..."
And so, amidst his own frenzied laughter, the mysterious death warrior's breath ceased!
Yang Fei, agitated by the death warrior's arrogant and insane words, felt a surge of anger.
"Damn beast, he must have been brainwashed, spewing such nonsense, utterly foul!"
As Yang Fei's words fell, Ling Feng's eyes grew even colder. He casually swung the hand holding the mysterious death warrior's corpse, sending it flying ten meters into the air.
Then, with a gentle flick of his sleeve.
*Whoosh!*
A fierce gust of wind, like tens of thousands of sharp blades, shot towards the corpse.
In the blink of an eye, the mysterious death warrior's body disintegrated in mid-air, not a single shred of flesh or residue falling.
Yang Fei swallowed hard.
He knew the King of Zhenbei was enraged!
Then, Ling Feng's voice, as if emanating from the deepest abyss, echoed in his ears!
"I will find out the truth about my brother's death. Never mind this person's wild pronouncements; even if a god stands in my way! I, Ling Feng, will slay gods! To the NINE HELLS!"
Each word resonated through the air!
The previously overcast sky suddenly dispersed.
The bright moon hung high, and the stars shone brilliantly!
Within a ten-kilometer radius, the sound of dogs barking in the middle of the night abruptly ceased!
The animals, with their innate sensitivity, cowered in fear!
Yang Fei stood frozen on the spot, not daring to breathe deeply.
It wasn't until Ling Feng stepped back into the villa that Yang Fei finally recovered and hurried to follow.
"Yang Fei."
"Here!"
Hearing Ling Feng call his name, Yang Fei's body tensed up again.
Ling Feng's lips curved into a smile, a cold smile that made Yang Fei's heart cry out, "It's over."
"Your Xing Yi Quan just now was quite good, you were truly lost in the moment."
"Ah? Your subordinate dares not!"
"Dares not? Heh, then how do you explain all this blood and gore here?" Ling Feng's voice made Yang Fei even more terrified.
"This... Your subordinate got carried away, please punish me, Heavenly Venerate!"
Yang Fei no longer dared to quibble, cold sweat beading on his forehead.
"You have half an hour to clean this place up. Before dawn, I want the villa restored to its original state! Also, investigate that death warrior from earlier. Conduct a thorough investigation!"
"Yes!"
Yang Fei responded and moved, letting out a long sigh of relief. Fortunately, he hadn't angered the Heavenly Venerate into taking action...
Ling Feng ascended the stairs with a flick of his sleeve. This night yielded nothing.
However, it only strengthened Ling Feng's resolve. He was determined to investigate this matter to the end!
The mastermind behind the scenes would also one day kneel at his feet!
To repent and atone for all the crimes they had committed!
He went to Ling Xiaoran's room and covered the little girl with the blanket she had kicked off.
Just as he was about to leave, Ling Xiaoran, as if in a dream, grabbed his hand.
"Mmm, Xiaoran wants to sleep with Daddy today..."
A dream-like murmur struck Ling Feng's heart like a heavy hammer.
His hand, which had never trembled even when killing thousands, now trembled as he placed it on Xiaoran's head.
"Be good, Xiaoran..."
"Hehe, Daddy didn't lie, that uncle was really amazing..."
Another dream-like murmur brought an exceptionally rare, gentle smile to Ling Feng's face.
That night, Ling Feng crouched by Ling Xiaoran's bedside, letting her hold his hand until dawn!
Yang Fei's efficiency had never disappointed Ling Feng.
The villa was restored to its original state, and Yang Fei had also disappeared.
Ling Feng knew that Yang Fei had gone to thoroughly investigate the mysterious death warrior from last night and had not yet returned, meaning he likely had some leads.
He drove Ling Xiaoran to kindergarten.
Watching the little girl become more cheerful, Ling Feng felt a slight solace in his heart. "Brother, sister-in-law, don't worry, I will take good care of Xiaoran!"
His vow-like murmur settled, and Ling Feng returned to the villa.
He waited for the morning. As noon approached, Yang Fei finally returned to the villa.
Before Ling Feng could ask, Yang Fei reported to him, "Heavenly Venerate, your subordinate has discovered that the person from last night had stayed at this hotel for several days!"
He then handed over some photographs. xxs壹贰
The photos were taken by the hotel's surveillance cameras. Although not very clear, Ling Feng recognized the person from last night's mysterious death warrior with just one glance!
Seeing a spark of light in Ling Feng's eyes, Yang Fei bowed and added, "A couple of days ago, including Hu Deqiang and Hua Zhenyan, they had all appeared at this hotel. It can be confirmed that they had direct contact with this person!"
Ling Feng nodded and stood up directly. "Shenghua Hotel, let's go take a look."
