Chapter 571: Chapter 564: Return to the Country

Could it be that the person who just saved Nangong Bing was a member of the mythical Blazing Angel Organization from Huaxia?

In an instant, Lin Zifeng felt his head suddenly filled with some ridiculous events.

He remembered that when Nangong Shui returned to the country, he had mentioned the Huaxia Blazing Angel Organization to him, but at that time, Lin Zifeng was more inclined to doubt this mysterious organization.

Right before the Netherworld King died, he seemed to have seen a scene that shouldn’t have been seen, or perhaps he had witnessed something unbelievable in his final moments?

Could it be that the person who just saved Nangong Bing was related to the Blazing Angel Organization?

"Lin Zifeng!"

Nangong Bing called out with deep affection.

At this moment, no one understood Nangong Bing’s feelings. Her inner world was filled with excitement and stimulation, but even more so with emotion. For such a long time, the silent protection from the man made Nangong Bing long to see him almost every night. Unfortunately, Lin Zifeng was unwilling to show himself, silently watching over her, until now when the truth finally emerged. Now, Nangong Bing was sobbing uncontrollably.

The man held her tightly in his arms, caressing her hair with deep affection and soothing her, "It’s okay, everything is okay now, it’s all in the past."

"Wuu, tell me, why did you deceive me? Why did you deceive me? You have been silently protecting me for so long, why wouldn’t you reveal yourself? Do you have any idea how much I wanted to see you during this time? Yet you actually played such a game with me, wuu—" By the end, Nangong Bing’s delicate body shook even more violently as she wept.

This scene had played out in her dreams hundreds of times, but she, Nangong Bing, had never been able to discern the face of the man in those dreams. She has never seen the true face of Death God, so it was impossible to imagine.

Now, the man she longed for in her dreams was in her arms. In her heart, she silently vowed that she would never let this man leave her side again, even if it killed her.

"I’m sorry, it’s all my fault, I shouldn’t have let you suffer so much. I’m a bastard, I’m a bastard, it’s all my fault," Lin Zifeng frantically slapped his own mouth.

Woman’s heart ached, and she quickly grabbed the man’s hand, her beautiful eyes brimming with tears as she stared intently at him.

Memories of the past flickered in the woman’s mind.

From the first time they met, when the man spoke without restraint about his ’little buddy,’ to the subsequent encounters where they always bickered like two little enemies, eating at food stalls together, shopping for clothes together... Every single memory was replaying like a movie projector in Nangong Bing’s mind.

Their relationship had gradually changed, but it was unfortunate that Nangong Bing had privately held onto another man in her heart. Now that she finally knew this man was Lin Zifeng, her feelings were a mix of joy and sorrow, with an indescribable bitter taste.

Meanwhile, the battle in the rainforest seemed to be drawing to an end.

Black Hawk led the remaining brothers back swiftly.

Upon seeing the two huddled together, Black Hawk’s face turned red, and he quickly turned his head away.

For him, an old bachelor, this scene was most arousing.

Soon, receiving the signal, Bu Chen led all the members of the Shadow Group and arrived in full force.

However, compared to Black Hawk, Bu Chen didn’t seem to be much better; he was dirty all over, his face still smeared with blood, and a foul stench emanated from his body.

Early in the morning after receiving Black Hawk’s signal, Bu Chen nonstop led the Shadow Group members all the way here. Halfway through, they encountered remnants of the Heavenly Gate mercenaries. After a large-scale battle, although the Shadow Group emerged victorious, it also paid a heavy price. After all, since the founding of Shadow Group, this was the only time they truly fought a large battle against mercenaries, especially in such rainforest conditions, where they clearly held no advantage—

"Lin Zifeng, my father... is he already dead?"

In Lin Zifeng’s embrace, Nangong Bing slightly lifted her delicate head, a strange light flickering through her watery eyes.

She knew death was irreversible, and only a few days ago, her impulsiveness had almost led to a catastrophe.

Lin Zifeng pondered for a short while before smiling and saying, "He’s not dead."

"I know you’re trying to comfort me, but I understand the principle that death is irreversible." Nangong Bing frowned tightly, her pained expression making Lin Zifeng feel uncomfortable.

"I’m sorry."

"There’s no need to apologize to me. Although I don’t know how my father died, his death has nothing to do with you. He spoke of life and death when he returned to the country, signaling this day would come. I just didn’t expect it to happen so soon," she said with a self-mocking smile, bitterness seeping through her beautiful lips.

"It’s okay, you still have me." Lin Zifeng pulled her into his arms, trying his best to warm her with his tenderness.

Feeling the warmth emanating from the man’s body, Nangong Bing was filled with complex and confused thoughts. She didn’t know whether her feelings for Lin Zifeng were love or simply gratitude—

It wasn’t until the third day later, when a group of people transported Nangong Shui’s decayed and unrecognizable corpse back to the country, that Lin Zifeng and his companions had just left the rainforest, a gaunt man began to emerge from the depths of the jungle.

The man’s gaze was incredibly empty, as if it contained the stars, profound and unfathomable.

He looked at the rainforest and sighed deeply, mocking himself with a bitter smile, "Nangong Shui, Nangong Shui, I don’t know if you’re still alive, but this is as much as I can help." After saying that, the man’s desolate figure slowly receded until he vanished at the edge of the rainforest...

This trip to Brazil, though fraught with danger but free of harm, left Lin Zifeng with an ever-present anxiety he could not dismiss.

Now that even Heavenly Gate had stumbled upon the secret of the bracelet, it was only a matter of time before the issue erupted on a grand scale. When that happened, his situation would be a hundred times more dangerous than it was now!

Sometimes, Lin Zifeng wondered, was he too pitiable?

Five years ago, his parents mysteriously vanished, their fate still unknown.

Having narrowly escaped from Dark Prison, he had hoped to live a peaceful life like any ordinary person. Yet, now his situation grew more perilous by the day, with the threat of adversaries seeking him out at any moment.

Moreover, there was not a single person by his side who could help him. He even wondered, would anyone truly grieve if he died mysteriously just like that?

Would anyone remember him?

He was aware that Dark Prison was hidden somewhere deep in the jungle, but he dared not enter, for he was afraid he might just die.

He had many unfinished matters; he knew he absolutely could not afford to die at this moment.

His parents might still be in this world, waiting for him to find them; the old man in Dark Prison was waiting for him to come to his rescue.

He hadn’t yet flattened Heavenly Gate—every single thing made Lin Zifeng feel worn out, his burdens far too heavy—
