Lin Feng's expression gradually vanished from his face, replaced by eyes that were cold and devoid of life.
The color of his pupils shifted from dark brown to crimson, and he spoke in a voice steeped in desolation, "Feng Jingyao, no one in this world can threaten me. I gave you a chance to live, but you didn't cherish it. Then, you shall die!"
As he finished speaking, Lin Feng raised his palm, and a terrifying energy converged within it. The very air around him began to distort, forming visible cyclones.
At this moment, not only Feng Jingyao but also Feng Jianwen, standing at a distance, and Zheng Youlong felt an inexplicable chill.
Even the girls behind Lin Feng, Liu Mengyao and Su Qingya, sensed an extremely fearsome aura, as if the Lin Feng before them had crawled out of the deepest hell, exuding an aura of death and boundless malevolence.
"Master, save me! Master, save me!"
Facing Lin Feng, who was like the descent of death, Feng Jingyao could no longer maintain his composure. He shouted in panic and terror.
As he shouted, he tore off the jade pendant hanging around his neck and fiercely smashed it with his hand.
"Feng Jingyao, no one can save you today. I will send you on your way now!"
Lin Feng spoke as his hand, imbued with deathly energy, whooshed towards Feng Jingyao's forehead.
"Master, save me! Master, save me!"
Feeling enveloped by the aura of death, Feng Jingyao cried out in desperation, clenching his fists.
"What is my second brother doing? Is this the legendary Shen Da?"
While anxiously sweating for Feng Jingyao, Zheng Youlong was perplexed by his actions.
"Brother Long, what is Shen Da?"
Geng Dapao inquired, confused.
"Shen Da, in ghost movies, is a secret art where one cannot defeat the opponent, so they invite their ancestors to possess them. But in ghost movies, they need to stomp their feet, and what my second brother is doing is different from what's shown in ghost movies!"
Jia Xiaoming, who was knowledgeable, explained.
"You guys, stop talking nonsense and quickly think of a way to save my brother!"
Feng Jianwen was frantic. Seeing his brother about to be killed by Lin Feng with a single palm, he was like an ant on a hot pan, pacing restlessly.
"There's nothing we can do. Second Brother isn't even a match for Lin Feng. Are we supposed to charge forward and die?"
Zheng Youlong shot Feng Jianwen a look. If it weren't for Feng Jianwen being Feng Jingyao's brother, he would have already started cursing.
Ultimately, this whole affair was instigated by Feng Jianwen.
If Feng Jingyao died at Lin Feng's hands, then Feng Jianwen would be the culprit!
"Ahhh! Brother, Brother!"
Feng Jianwen shouted in desperation. Watching his brother about to be killed by Lin Feng, he slumped onto the ground, wailing continuously as if attending a funeral.
At this moment, Feng Jingyao felt a surge of despair. He had already begun to give up, closing his eyes and awaiting death.
However, at the critical moment, a black shadow swept towards Feng Jingyao like a whirlwind.
He scooped Feng Jingyao into his arms and dashed westward.
The black shadow moved incredibly fast. Lin Feng's palm strike missed, and his bloodthirsty eyes immediately fixed on the newcomer. He vaguely saw an old man holding an iron-tipped cane.
Originally, Lin Feng intended to pursue and finish off Feng Jingyao.
But the feeling of powerlessness in his body made him abandon the chase.
He turned his head, his crimson eyes locking onto Feng Jianwen, Zheng Youlong, and the others.
Feng Jianwen, who had been wailing moments ago, immediately shut his mouth tightly when Lin Feng looked his way.
Zheng Youlong's face also changed drastically. Without a second thought, he dropped to his knees with a thud: "Oh, Lin Feng, this has nothing to do with me. I've always considered you a good friend!"
"You've bullied me so many times, and I've never lost my temper with you. You can't vent your anger on me. I am innocent, by heaven and earth!"
As Zheng Youlong anxiously proclaimed his innocence, he subtly pulled Geng Dapao and Jia Xiaoming.
These two had already been terrified by Lin Feng's power. Seeing this, they also dropped to their knees before Lin Feng with a thud.
Witnessing the timid behavior of Zheng Youlong and the others, Feng Jianwen gritted his teeth, hardened his heart, and began slapping himself: "I am a bastard, a scoundrel, a coward, a beast..."
"Grandpa Lin, I was wrong, I was truly wrong. Please don't kill me. I beg you, I'll never dare again!"
Feng Jianwen trembled, lamenting his fate. He wondered why Feng Jingyao didn't take him along.
This was a disaster!
Lin Feng looked at the kneeling and repentant individuals, suppressing the dizziness in his head, and coldly uttered a single word: "Scram!"
Upon hearing this, Feng Jianwen and the others were momentarily stunned, bewildered by Lin Feng's unexpected mercy.
Immediately, without a second thought, Feng Jianwen and the others bolted, glancing back to see if Lin Feng was pursuing them.
Seeing that Lin Feng remained standing still, they finally felt relieved and fled.
"Brother-in-law, why did you let them go? They almost got you killed!"
Su Duoduo was perplexed. She walked up to Lin Feng and noticed he had his eyes closed, his body trembling involuntarily.
"Brother-in-law, what's wrong?"
Su Duoduo exclaimed, finally sensing Lin Feng's abnormality.
"Lin Feng!"
Liu Mengyao, Su Qingya, and Luo Keke also rushed towards Lin Feng.
The girls gathered around Lin Feng and were startled to see him with his eyes closed, pale lips, and a trembling body.
"I can't hold on, hold me!"
Lin Feng's facial muscles twitched several times, and his body trembled more violently.
Upon hearing this, Liu Mengyao and Su Qingya were the first to react. Almost without thinking, they rushed to embrace Lin Feng.
As the two women held Lin Feng tightly, one on each side, the man who stood as tall as a mountain could no longer hold on and fainted.
...
The rapid autumn rain pattered down on the villa's courtyard, bringing a hint of coolness.
Under the dim yellow lamplight, Liu Mengyao gazed at the unconscious Lin Feng on the bed, her heart filled with tenderness and helplessness.
The doctor had conducted a full examination of Lin Feng, and there were no abnormalities with his body.
However, despite this, Lin Feng remained unconscious, which made Liu Mengyao deeply uneasy.
"Sister Yaoyao, you've been watching for hours. You should go rest. I'll keep an eye on Xiao Linzi!"
Luo Keke was concerned that Liu Mengyao might not be able to bear it.
"I'm fine, Keke. Have Su Qingya and the others left?"
Liu Mengyao knew that Su Qingya had been guarding outside Lin Feng's door and understood Lin Feng's importance to Su Qingya, so she specifically inquired.
"They haven't left. She's still guarding the door."
"Sister Yaoyao, it's not that I'm cold-blooded. I've been asking her to come in and sit, but she refuses, insisting on staying outside."
Luo Keke replied.
"Mm, it's not your fault. Su Qingya is a good girl. She intentionally didn't come in, fearing I'd misunderstand."
"Honestly, I feel rather sorry for Su Qingya. I was the one who actively brought Lin Feng into her embrace, and now I'm competing with her for Lin Feng."
"And she always remains in the background, wholeheartedly thinking of Lin Feng."
"Sometimes, I even feel she's more suited for Lin Feng than I am."
A touch of tragic beauty graced Liu Mengyao's lips, her heart a mixture of emotions, unspeakably complex and bitter.
"Sister Yaoyao, actually, I think Su Qingya is quite good too. However, you shouldn't give up on Xiao Linzi because of this. He's your Prince Charming that you've waited for over twenty years!"
Luo Keke hurriedly reminded her. She truly feared that Liu Mengyao might impulsively give Lin Feng away to someone else again.
"I know. Call Su Qingya in. Tell her I want to chat with her!"
Liu Mengyao felt that there were some things she needed to clarify with Su Qingya. She didn't want to wrong the good girl Su Qingya due to her own selfishness.
"Oh, I'll go get her then!"
Luo Keke nodded. Although she didn't know what Liu Mengyao wanted to discuss with Su Qingya, she obediently opened the door and went to call her.
At this moment, Su Qingya stood outside Liu Mengyao's bedroom door.
Her eyes were red, and her small hands fidgeted with each other, as if she had lost her bearings, making one want to show her affection.
She desperately wanted to go in and check on Lin Feng, but remembering Liu Mengyao's attitude towards Lin Feng, she feared her entry would be superfluous and hurt Liu Mengyao's feelings.
Women are very sensitive. Su Qingya could sense that Liu Mengyao harbored feelings for Lin Feng and cared deeply about him; it was by no means a master-servant relationship.
