Chapter 118: Chapter 118: Husband, Save Me
Before long, A-Li arrived and directly mentioned to Lin Feng, "The Divine Marquis returned to his mansion three days ago, but has not been seen since then."
Lin Feng silently lamented upon hearing this.
"You’ve joined the Divine Wind Camp now?"
A-Li asked curiously.
Lin Feng nodded, glanced at the clothing A-Li was wearing, and said with a smile, "It looks like you’re doing well there."
A-Li’s clothes were embroidered with three golden flowers, each representing higher ranks among the ladies-in-waiting, with the highest rank having just four flowers.
"Thanks to your blessing."
A-Li smiled sweetly in response.
Lin Feng didn’t say much more. Learning that the Iron Spear Divine Marquis wasn’t at the mansion, Lin Feng could only return home.
Thinking this, he immediately prepared to find a horse to return to the Divine Wind Camp.
Throughout the journey, Lin Feng did not pause to rest, riding hard. In the end, the horse was panting heavily. Seeing there was still a half day’s journey left, he decided to rest for a bit. If he didn’t rest, not only the horse needed it; if it died, he would have to walk until nightfall.
Upon reaching a small creek, Lin Feng took some clean water to quench his thirst. Just then, he suddenly looked up and stared at the bushes on the opposite side of the river—something was stirring there.
In the next moment, whoosh, a figure burst out from within.
"Someone?"
Lin Feng immediately went on alert, but the figure seemed not to be charging at Lin Feng, but rather wading through the water as if avoiding something. The movement technique was quite skillful, yet the face was marked with panic.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh
Then in the next moment, arrows flew from the dense forest, engulfing the figure. The latter managed to block them seamlessly.
Clearly, the strength was not weak, but the breathing was somewhat strange, strong at times and weak at others.
"Seems to be a Great Martial Master, but poisoned."
Lin Feng looked at the figure, recognizing a young woman. Confirming that she wasn’t there for him, he simply sat back down, indifferent—whether she was beautiful or not, if it had nothing to do with him, he preferred not to meddle.
In the next moment, seven or eight men leapt down from the trees. These men, ranging from the Seventh to Ninth Layer Peak in cultivation, were all wielding crossbows, continuing to shoot while encircling her.
Seeing Lin Feng, they merely gave a cautionary glance and continued the chase.
"Han Surou, you can’t escape!"
One of the men coldly sneered.
"I am a disciple of the Divine Wind Camp, you dare to kill me?"
The woman, known as Han Surou, yelled angrily.
"Pfft, Divine Wind Camp, I know, it’s just over at that mountain crest, indeed formidable, but so what? In three years, you still haven’t completely eradicated our Yellow Dragon Village. Our third boss died at the hands of Hulan Bo from your Divine Wind Camp, how can we not avenge this!!"
"Brothers, less nonsense, let’s capture this wench and bring her back to our leader!"
One of the men, wearing a mask, brandished his large knife and sent a fierce Sword Energy slashing through.
The rest of the people immediately launched fierce attacks.
Lin Feng was somewhat surprised, he hadn’t expected this woman to be a disciple of the Divine Wind Camp?
It was quite a coincidence, but it made sense, as this was the only route to the Divine Wind Camp, and the probability of encountering disciples from the camp was not small.
However, Lin Feng still didn’t care, even if everyone was a disciple of the Divine Wind Camp, it was none of his business.
The woman was fiercely resisting, although her cultivation was that of a Great Martial Master, she was injured beforehand and couldn’t withstand many moves; she directly let out a soft grunt, a trace of blood left on the corner of her mouth, and her veil was directly knocked off, revealing a delicate face.
"Is she a beauty?"
Lin Feng was somewhat surprised, this woman was elegantly beautiful, wearing a long dress that trailed on the ground; it would be pity if she died, but it had nothing to do with Lin Feng, he filled his water bottle and prepared to leave directly.
"Dear husband, save me!"
At this moment, the woman surprisingly shouted something that astonished everyone.
Lin Feng was stunned, dear husband—could it be that this woman’s man was nearby?
But the next second, Lin Feng cursed inwardly as he saw those guys who originally paid no mind to him, now all staring at him.
"This damn woman!"
Looking at the woman again, indeed, she had used this opportunity to run some distance.
"Big brother, that chick’s man is here too!" Those men fiercely said while looking at Lin Feng.
The only men nearby besides them were Lin Feng; naturally, they directly thought Lin Feng was that woman’s illicit lover.
"Stop talking nonsense, some of you chase after that woman, her lover is just a mere Martial Master Seventh Layer, looks like a gigolo, I’ll handle him; if we don’t catch this woman today, no one returns!"
One of the men yelled, and upon hearing this, the rest immediately split up to act, leaving only that man facing Lin Feng.
The man smirked at Lin Feng, "Little pretty boy, indeed unreliable, being unmoved by such a beauty, still trying to fool everyone. If it weren’t for your darling wife crying out for help in her dying moments, you might have actually fooled us."
Lin Feng saw himself swept into this misfortune, and shook his head helplessly, what comes will come, no avoiding it.
Now saying anything else, claiming he and that woman didn’t know each other, would be like mud falling into one’s crotch; not shit but still shit.
"Kneel down, boy, if you kneel now, maybe I can spare your life and let you see that little chick one last time. Of course, to let you watch with your own eyes, as your delicate little wife is slowly stripped of her clothes and played to death by us, slowly, ha ha, little pretty boy, looks like you can’t handle her, but no worries, we, the rugged men with hair on our chests, can surely fulfill your wish!"
The man sneered with obscene words.
"If you want to play, that’s your business, but could you not block my way?"
Lin Feng said helplessly, he didn’t care about playing hero and saving the beauty, how they played with the woman had nothing to do with him.
"Oh? Is that so? You still want to run?" The man was shocked, then stood firm, pointed to his crotch, "Crawl from your side over here, then crawl from here to there, maybe then I’ll let you run."
Seeing this, Lin Feng didn’t waste words, he just picked up a stone from the ground and weighed it in his hand.
"If that’s the case, then I might as well kill someone before I leave."
Swoosh!
As Lin Feng’s words fell, the stone in his hand turned into a black shadow, directly speeding toward the man across from him.
