Chapter 900: Chapter 900: The Mysterious Person Reappears

The martial artists watching the scene could no longer stand idly by, and someone shouted, "Are you fighting or not? We’re still holding the Martial Arts Competition here!"

"Yes, I shouldn’t disrupt the Martial Arts Competition. I can’t be so devoid of public spirit. Alright, since you insist, let me end the fight quickly." Having said this, Qian Feng’s eyes filled with even more fighting spirit. She slowly raised her hands, and a surge of supernatural power began to swell, while thunder rumbled in the sky.

Seeing this, Qian Xue and Qian Ying´s faces paled, and they hastily beat a retreat: "Big sister, you’re really causing chaos."

"Not good, everyone clear out, she’s going to strike with lightning." Jian Shen issued a warning, but the martial artists were puzzled, doubting that Qian Feng’s magic could be powerful enough to beckon such lightning.

"Jian Shen, don’t you die too easily, otherwise there will be no one to tell me Qian Ye’s whereabouts." After speaking, Qian Ye made a slight motion with her finger, as if she were conducting something.

With a thunderous boom, Heavenly Thunder struck down. Its speed was so swift that even Jian Shen could only narrowly evade it.

However, when the lightning struck, the current, under Qian Feng’s command, shot across the area, shocking many martial artists into cries of agony, suffering beyond words.

The leader of the Martial Arts Alliance built a Qi Wall with tremendous power, but it couldn’t stop the spread of the current. He too was painfully electrocuted, his body twitching uncontrollably. This was already with Qian Feng controlling the intensity of the electricity; otherwise, flesh and blood could never have withstood it.

Qian Feng summoned three bolts of Heavenly Thunder in rapid succession, all targeting Jian Shen. It was as if wherever Jian Shen went, the lightning struck there, and each time it hit, the electricity spread even further, overwhelming many of the martial artists present.

Lu Bei and Jin Yi had long since fled far away. They didn’t join in, nor did they have the capability to fight, thinking to themselves, wasn’t Jian Shen supposed to have a forty percent chance of winning against Qian Feng? Based on the situation, Jian Shen seemed to be in a state of getting pummeled.

Meanwhile, at the inn, Lin Xi saw a series of thunderclaps coming from the direction of the Martial Arts Competition and knew it was out of the ordinary. She speculated it must be Qian Feng’s doing, which made her worry. What exactly was Qian Feng doing at the Martial Arts Competition? If it was just against average martial artists, Qian Feng would not have to resort to this move.

"Could it be that Qian Feng is now dealing with Jian Shen?" The possibility sent Lin Xi into a frantic state. She immediately opened the door, eager to offer help.

However, as soon as she opened the door, Lin Xi saw a man wearing a mask standing outside, his hands behind his back, his gaze solemn and serious.

"Is it you?" Lin Xi’s face changed color, and she involuntarily stepped back a few paces.

The mysterious masked man walked straight into Lin Xi’s room, then shut the door, in a manner suggesting that he wouldn’t let Lin Xi leave. This made Lin Xi very nervous, and she went on guard.

"What are you afraid of? If I wanted to hurt you, I wouldn’t have let you and Jian Shen go so easily last time." The mysterious masked man spoke as he moved to the window, looking in the direction of the Martial Arts Competition, watching the lightning striking down, and then said, "You were just about to leave, to go to the Martial Arts Competition."

Lin Xi instinctively maintained distance from the mysterious masked man: "Yes, I want to help Jian Shen."

"You must not go!" The mysterious masked man spoke in a commanding tone as if he had the authority to decide everything for Lin Xi.

Lin Xi bristled: "Why not? If I want to go, I’ll go. It’s my freedom, none of your business."

The mysterious masked person said this, "If your actions influence history, affect the future, then I will step in."

Upon hearing the words ’influence history, affect the future,’ Lin Xi’s face slightly changed, "Who exactly are you, and why do you know my true identity?"

To that, the mysterious masked person didn’t even deign to glance at Lin Xi, and said indifferently, "You do not need to know my identity, you only need to understand one thing, if you listen to me and don’t interfere with my matters, I won’t hurt you, otherwise, don’t blame me for being heartless."

Lin Xi felt a chill, a murderously chilly intent emanating from the mysterious masked person, as if telling Lin Xi he wasn’t just talking, he was serious.

Although Lin Xi didn’t like being threatened, this was an exception, first because the other person’s strength was too great, even Jian Shen was easily defeated by him and, second, because the other person knew too much, probably having an even more terrifying identity and background.

"But, if I don’t go, I’m afraid..." Before Lin Xi could finish, the mysterious masked person’s cold snort interrupted her, "According to history, Jian Shen definitely did not die at the hands of Qian Feng, what are you worried about?"

After hearing this, Lin Xi thought it made sense, and slightly relaxed, but there was still worry in her eyes, better safe than sorry.

Seeing that Lin Xi was still uneasy, the mysterious masked person asked, "Seeing how you’re so worried about Jian Shen, are you still harboring old feelings for him? If at this moment, Gu Fan appeared to take you back to the modern era, would you go or not?"

"This..." Lin Xi hesitated, she had never considered such a situation.

Seeing Lin Xi’s hesitation, the mysterious masked person said coldly, "Lin Xi, don’t forget your own identity, and don’t forget what Gu Fan has done for you."

These words stirred Lin Xi’s emotions, "Of course, I haven’t forgotten who I am, nor will I let down Gu Fan. I am just trying to make up for the regrets of my past life. If Gu Fan came to get me now, I would tell Gu Fan what I want to do. I believe Gu Fan would understand, would support me, and I believe even more that the Lin Xi Gu Fan likes is not one who is heartless and unfaithful."

"Well said, I almost believed you," the mysterious masked person spoke in a tone that was less than convinced, as if he did not approve of Lin Xi’s words, then he asked another question, "If Gu Fan appeared in the ancient times and he and Jian Shen both encountered danger, and you could only save one, who would you save?"

"I would save Gu Fan, because I am Lin Xi," Lin Xi answered very resolutely, without any hesitation.

"Good, it seems you’re very clear about your own identity, and firm in it," the mysterious masked person seemed very satisfied with Lin Xi’s answer this time, but Lin Xi was upset, "Who exactly are you, and why do you know my identity?"

"I came today to give a warning, not to come clean with you." With that, the mysterious masked person turned and left, without casting a glance at Lin Xi.

Seeing the mysterious masked person about to leave, Lin Xi was very anxious, simply hoping the other person would leave the room quickly.

Just as the mysterious masked person was opening the door to leave, he suddenly thought of something, then turned back and said, "Lin Xi, please take special care of Lu Bei."

Lin Xi was puzzled, "Lu Bei? What’s so special about him?"

"He’s a key character, and don’t you think he resembles someone in certain ways?" After saying that, the mysterious masked person left without looking back.
