Chapter 97: Chapter 97: This Prince Wants Twenty

The once haughty and arrogant Golden-armored Martial King, now like a drowned dog, got up from the ground rolling and crawling, and began to run frantically forward. Soon after, his figure had completely disappeared from sight.

Shi Feng turned around and addressed the ice tree where someone had been hiding, "Well, have you seen enough? Aren’t you coming out?"

"Hehe." Li Liuxin chuckled sheepishly as he emerged from behind the ice tree, smiling at Shi Feng, "Brother Shi is really getting more and more formidable. You’ve taken care of two Martial King Realm experts in just no time at all."

"Experts? Since when did Martial King Realm qualify as strong?" Shi Feng said with disdain on his face.

"Uh, of course not, we in the Martial King Realm are merely weaklings in the eyes of Brother Shi, how dare we claim to be strong? It was my slip of the tongue," Li Liuxin quickly said.

At that moment, Li Liuxin was genuinely afraid that Shi Feng might kill him on a whim.

Although he looked young, was there anything he couldn’t do?

"Stop babbling, let’s go!" Shi Feng then said to Li Liuxin.

Shi Feng figured that now was a time when he needed people around him, so it was better to keep this fellow close.

He could see that the Skywind Sect and the Golden Peng Royal Mansion had already sent people down to look for him. If they caught this guy, they might stop searching this forest.

Then his plan to "kidnap people" in order to find the Cold Pond would not come to fruition.

And Shi Feng suddenly realized another issue. The Ice Snow Land was so vast, and just now, people from the Golden Peng Royal Mansion had been cursing above this forest and later sent someone down—maybe... they knew this guy was hiding in this area.

Could someone have secretly put some kind of mark on him?

Thinking of this, Shi Feng said to Li Liuxin, "Give me your hand."

Hearing Shi Feng’s words, Li Liuxin’s face immediately went pale and he stepped back several paces, saying,

"Young brother, Brother Shi! Though I may be handsome and dashing, and you first saw me with two men, please don’t misunderstand; despite being called the Residual Flower Sword by the world, I’m really not what you imagine.

Brother Shi, I take back my earlier words about us having a fate; there’s no happiness in being forced, please let me go."

"If you spout more nonsense, do you believe I’ll cleave you with one sword?" Shi Feng coldly glared at Li Liuxin, who could feel genuine murderous intent emanating from him.

"This... this... Brother Shi, can you let me think it over properly? I... I..." Li Liuxin felt Shi Feng’s gaze becoming colder and colder.

Thinking of how the man who was killed earlier had all his blood drained, becoming a dried-up corpse, and ultimately burned to ash by a cluster of blood-colored flames...

Thinking of another person, lying on the ground convulsing and rolling, visibly undergoing torture worse than death...

Considering this, Li Liuxin took a deep breath to bolster his courage, and slowly made his way to Shi Feng, his expression grave as if attending a funeral.

Eventually, as Li Liuxin extended his left hand to Shi Feng, he slowly closed his eyes, and as if in a shimmering teardrop, it seemed that the corners of his eyes glistened.

Seeing Li Liuxin like that, Shi Feng grabbed his wrist forcefully, causing Li Liuxin to let out a shriek, "Ah!"

At this moment, his heart was filled with conflict.

After Shi Feng grabbed Li Liuxin’s wrist, he injected a thread of Nine Nether Power into his meridians.

Soon, the Nine Nether Power swiftly moved throughout his body, circulating completely in just a moment.

Shi Feng found that under the surveillance of his Nine Nether Power, there was no mark to be touched.

This was indeed strange.

Then, with a thought from Shi Feng, the Nine Nether Power that had entered Li Liuxin’s body dissipated and vanished into thin air.

At this moment, Li Liuxin, still in turmoil and expecting a nightmare to unfold, suddenly felt his wrist released, and a cold voice reached his ears, "Let’s go."

"Go?" Li Liuxin was shocked again.

Nothing had happened, and just like that, he had been spared?

Was he not harboring malicious intentions? How could it be?

Could it be that he was moved by my unyielding will?

Opening his eyes, Li Liuxin saw Shi Feng walking forward on the soft white snow, the solitary figure in the blizzard appearing somewhat desolate and lonely in his eyes.

After walking some distance, Shi Feng saw that Li Liuxin had not followed and turned back, looking at him coldly again, "What, aren’t you coming?"

It was that murderous look again!

Now, everytime Li Liuxin saw that icy look of Shi Feng, he couldn’t help but get startled.

"Roar roar!" Just then, Li Liuxin saw the Demon Wolf following Shi Feng turn its head back, baring a ferocious demeanor and growling at him twice, "Even the beast dares growl at me."

Li Liuxin immediately widened his eyes in anger at the Ghost Wolf, "Growl again, and I’ll slaughter you."

Then, Li Liuxin gave the Ghost Wolf a sidelong glance and finally turned and followed Shi Feng, stepping on the soft white snow.

...

In the Void, the Golden Peng King met with Fengg Luohan above in the sky, and at that moment, the Golden Peng King’s face was full of even fiercer rage. Upon seeing Fengg Luohan, he impatiently asked, "Fengg Luohan, it’s been so long, do you have any news?"

"Old Duke, please calm yourself. Fifty Flying Demon Beasts are guarding every exit of this forest from above, and we’ve already dispatched fifty Martial King powerhouses below.

Moreover, with the ten-thousand strong army you ordered to rush here, once we have them surrounded on all sides, Li Liuxin won’t have a chance to escape," Fengg Luohan said.

"I really wish I could peel that little beast and draw his tendons right now!" The Golden Peng King gnashed his teeth, seething with anger.

Fengg Luohan gave a faint smile and advised, "Alright, alright, Old Duke, you’d better rest. Don’t get angry and harm your body.

Recently, many sects have offered beautiful women to our Skywind Sect; after this matter is settled, I’ll pick out the ten prettiest and send them to your royal residence."

Hearing Fengg Luohan, the Golden Peng King’s face suddenly turned very serious, and after pondering for a while, he then shook his head, saying, "Ten is too few, I want twenty!"

"Fine, if it’s twenty you want, then twenty it will be. As long as you’re happy," Fengg Luohan said with a mix of laughter and helplessness, having heard that the old fellow was as lecherous as life itself, but now he saw it was true, especially since he had just lost his only son.
