Chapter 153: Chapter 153: Bai Yue Demoness
Li Bing shook his head, "Even Hu Ben King doesn’t know about this matter, how would I know? Previously, Hu Ben King paid great attention to this place, many people think it’s an ominous land suppressing some great demon. For this matter, Hu Ben King even personally came here to explore, nearly digging three feet into the ground. However, there’s no array or altar here, and nothing mysterious could be found. Later, Hu Ben King could do nothing about it, but still couldn’t rest easy, so he built a military camp nearby, garrisoning three hundred thousand soldiers."
Li Yibo somehow got hold of roasted rabbits and tossed two rabbit legs to Ali and Li Bing.
The former happily accepted, and Li Bing shook his head, "Thanks, I don’t like greasy food."
Seeing this, Li Yibo shrugged his shoulders and glanced at Lin Feng, then started eating with relish.
"This rabbit meat, it tastes okay, but it’s nowhere near as delicious as big flatbreads.
Seeing this, Lin Feng chuckled and magically materialized a suckling pig.
Compared to rabbit, both the size and the meat quality of suckling pig are absolutely superb.
This astonished Li Yibo instantly. That thing, naturally, was given by the chubby Lin Panghu when he heard that Lin Feng was going to Divine Wind Camp. Lin Panghu’s eyes were brimming with tears as he hugged Lin Feng’s shoulder, and before leaving, he insisted on giving him several suckling pigs, claiming they were a local product of Suixian with particularly tender meat.
Soon after, Lin Feng roasted the suckling pig, and even Li Bing, who previously declined greasy food, couldn’t help but have his nostrils twitch. Ali’s eyes went wide, sitting cross-legged nearby, revealing two small tiger teeth and staring intensely at the delicious and tempting suckling pig.
"That, may I try some?" Ali pointed at the roasted suckling pig.
"Help yourself, I have plenty more," Lin Feng smiled.
Hearing this, Ali’s eyes sparkled, immediately seizing a large pig thigh.
"Wow, this meat is tender, Lin Feng, you’re really impressive."
Ali couldn’t help but give Lin Feng a thumbs up. His statement, combined with the aroma and the golden glow of the meat, made both Li Yibo and Li Bing swallow their saliva.
Lin Feng glanced at Li Bing, knowing she looked imposing but actually cared about ladylike manners, he cut a piece with a small knife and handed it to her.
"Thank you."
Li Bing spoke softly, and then began to taste it slowly.
As for Li Yibo, Lin Feng couldn’t be bothered with him and leisurely gnawed at a rabbit leg.
Seeing this, a trace of anger appeared in Li Yibo’s eyes.
"By the way, Lin Feng, what do you make of this Corpse Tomb Evil Land? Do you think there’s anything demonic or heterodox here?"
Ali, pleased by the roasted suckling pig, couldn’t help but bring up the previous topic.
Lin Feng said, "This place, in my view, most likely has some mysteries."
That the Demoness Bai Yue appeared from here is an undeniable fact.
"Tsk, always ’in my view’. Some people just flap their lips without backup. In my opinion, Corpse Tomb Evil Land is merely due to its unique geology, plus there used to be a pit for ten thousand people nearby. Over the years, this area turned into what we see now, nothing significant at all."
Li Yibo immediately retorted.
Lin Feng chuckled upon hearing the words and said nothing. Restoring the 10,000 corpses pit, even if 150,000 people died, it still wouldn’t reach this scale.
Lin Feng, too, was lazy to argue further. After filling their stomachs, the group rested in the dilapidated small mountain village.
They took turns keeping watch during the night; when it was Lin Feng’s turn to replace Li Bing, she shook her head.
"I can’t sleep; I keep feeling like something is going to happen." 𝖓𝔬𝔳𝔭𝖚𝖇.𝔠𝔬𝖒
Hearing this, Lin Feng found a spot to sit down. He didn’t have such feelings; perhaps Li Bing had been targeted by Yu Wen Tuo recently and was under a lot of stress.
It made sense. Thinking about being watched by someone like Yu Wen Tuo, who could be at peace? It was only someone like Lin Feng, who had experienced many big storms, that didn’t particularly worry about this.
He looked up at the sky. Sunlight couldn’t penetrate here, but the moonlight shone unobstructed upon the land.
Moreover, the moon seen from this place appeared to be a blood moon.
This was surprising; Bai Yue the Demoness, could there be some connection with the moon?
Suddenly, he thought of something, "Could it be that Hu Ben King couldn’t discover anything mysterious, just because..."
Thinking of this, he immediately asked Li Bing, "What’s the date today?"
Li Bing also glanced at the blood moon, large and round, and the ominous-signifying blood moon made her subconsciously say: "April 15th, why?"
"April 15th?"
Lin Feng’s brow furrowed, and his heart skipped a beat.
It couldn’t be such a coincidence; if he remembered correctly, it seemed that Bai Yue the Demoness was also released around this time before, because he clearly remembered Hu Ben King later declared a national day of mourning on April 15th.
Some ominous thoughts suddenly crossed Lin Feng’s mind, but then he thought that on the timeline, this simply didn’t align. Even if there were changes in this life, it wouldn’t be possible for an event set to occur decades later to be abruptly moved up by so many decades.
The butterfly effect couldn’t be this exaggerated.
Lin Feng instinctively felt that he had been drawn into a huge vortex. Ever since the battle with the Time-Space Star Monarch, up to now, he had a bold idea but was unsure of it.
That was during the day of the battle with Time-Space Star Monarch, behind it all, a Great Power was manipulating everything.
He and Time-Space Star Monarch had both become someone else’s chess pieces. Playthings for them.
Otherwise, he couldn’t understand why Time-Space Star Monarch could turn him from a man of several hundred years old into a teenager with one move; a feat not inferior to the divine, and Time-Space Star Monarch, strong as he was, was no more than a Martial Venerate like him.
Furthermore, thinking about Bai Yue the Demoness, the coincidence was too much. On April 15th, Bai Yue the Demoness broke taboo, and beneath the veil of blood and fog, she brought a catastrophe and wails of grief.
Likewise, on April 15th, he, Lin Feng, had also entered Corpse Tomb Evil Land.
The more Lin Feng thought about it, the more problematic it seemed; he looked at Li Bing, "I think it’s better for us to leave this place."
Li Bing looked at Lin Feng somewhat surprised, "Why? You should know, if we left, it means completely giving up. You don’t have to worry about me; I might just feel uneasy because I’ve been tired these few days."
Lin Feng suddenly didn’t know what else to say. He couldn’t possibly tell her, "Just follow me; I’ve lived through two lives, this place isn’t safe, and there’s a very powerful demoness called Bai Yue. Inexplicably, I’m harboring some ominous thoughts."
