Chapter 38

Lin Feng’s pupils shook.

The Chu family had someone from the Celestial Sect supporting them.

Lin Feng had heard that seventy years ago, the Celestial Sect was annihilated, and the surviving disciples fled overseas. The Dragon Pavilion even issued an order to ban any Celestial Sect disciples from entering the territory of Great Xia.

If what Murong Mengxi said was true, and a powerful member of the Celestial Sect was controlling things behind the scenes for the Chu family, it would mean the destruction of the Chu family could happen overnight if the Dragon Pavilion found out.

“Sister Mengxi, is your information true?”

“I don’t know,” Murong Mengxi shook her head, then looked mysteriously at Lin Feng. “I can only tell you that your father received this information.”

My father?

In Lin Feng’s mind, the image of his formidable father resurfaced.

His father had been missing for three years.

“Lin Feng, over these years, the Chu family has been collecting fragments of the Celestial Chart through various means. According to the clues your father provided, the fragment you have should be the last one.”

“How is that possible?” Lin Feng exclaimed in disbelief.

“When the Celestial Diagram shattered back then, weren’t most of the fragments in the possession of the Dragon Pavilion? How did they end up in the hands of the Chu family?” Lin Feng asked in succession.

Before Murong Mengxi could explain, Lin Feng froze. He had already figured out the reason.

The influential figure in the Dragon Pavilion!

“Lin Feng, have you decided to help me bring down the Chu family?” Murong Mengxi spoke again.

Lin Feng furrowed his brows tightly, and after a long while, he nodded.

“Mengxi sister, tell me, what should I do?”

“After tomorrow, I will spread the news. The final piece of the Celestial Diagram is on you. The Celestial Sect will surely be unable to sit down, and they will surely come looking for you.”

“All you need to do is to delay them. When we gather enough evidence to prove that the Celestial Sect is connected to the Chu family, the Dragon Pavilion will take action.”

“Is it that simple?” Lin Feng looked at Murong Mengxi with suspicion.

“Do you think it’s easy?”

“Isn’t it just collecting information that ties the Celestial Sect to the Chu family? What’s so difficult about that?” Lin Feng shrugged.

“Lin Feng, you need to think carefully. The powerful figure behind the Chu family with ties to the Celestial Sect has a cultivation level of atleast at the peak of Core Formation Realm. If he makes a move, even I won’t be able to save you.”

“Peak of Core Formation Realm…” Lin Feng subconsciously swallowed, undoubtedly realizing that this was the level of an old monster.

Seeing Lin Feng’s hesitant expression, Murong Mengxi threw in a small reward, “Lin Feng, if you help me bring down the Chu family, I will tell you about your father’s whereabouts.”

“Sure thing!” Lin Feng jumped up suddenly.

“You told me last time that if I accompany you to the Death Valley, you would tell me about my father. But until now, you haven’t told me anything.”

“I’ll tell you now,” Murong Mengxi said in a deep voice, “your father’s disappearance is related to your mother.”

“And then?” Lin Feng asked expectantly.

“Then you have to help me bring down the Chu family first.”

Lin Feng: “…”

Finally, under Murong Mengxi’s coercion and persuasion, Lin Feng reluctantly agreed, “What does it matter if it’s an old monster at the Peak of Core Formation Realm? Can’t I run away? “

Afterward, Lin Feng left the Jiangzhou Grand Hotel.

“Quick, look, he came out so fast this time, only half an hour.”

Lin Feng: “…”

Facing the whispers of the receptionist, Lin Feng couldn’t be bothered to argue.

Lin Feng opened his phone and found that Xia Shiyu had sent him several messages. He immediately replied.

After replying to the messages, Lin Feng took a taxi to Xia Shiyu’s apartment.

Ten minutes later, he arrived outside the apartment.

Since Lin Feng dealt with Li Ergou and his gang last time, they no longer dared to trouble him, and Lin Feng suddenly thought of someone.

The mysterious person who helped Li Ergou and his friends find Xia Shiyu’s apartment.

“Looks like I have to meet this mysterious person tomorrow,” Lin Feng whispered.

Collecting his thoughts, Lin Feng called Xia Shiyu.

“Miss Xia, I’m downstairs.”

“Alright, I’ll be right down.”

A minute later, Xia Shiyu, dressed in casual attire, descended and opened the door for Lin Feng.

“Lin Feng, I’m troubling you again this time.”

“It’s nothing. It’s what I should do,” Lin Feng smiled faintly.

It was originally a casual remark, but when Xia Shiyu heard it, her small face blushed slightly. She remembered that night when she kissed Lin Feng…

On the other side, Lin Feng saw Xia Shiyu’s fair face quickly turning red.

He had no idea what Xia Shiyu was thinking.

“Lin Feng, have you eaten?” Xia Shiyu realized her loss of composure and quickly changed the topic.

“Not yet.”

“I’ll order takeout now. I haven’t eaten either,” Xia Shiyu smiled.

Lin Feng nodded, not refusing.

“While waiting for the takeout, how about we visit Auntie? I’m confident now that I can cure her,” Lin Feng smiled.

He could already cure Xia Shiyu’s mother with the Dragon Dance Nine Heaven Divine Needle, and now, with his newly unlocked abilities, healing her was even more within his capabilities.

The two entered the room.

Lin Feng saw Xia Shiyu’s mother.

After two days of recuperation, Xia Shiyu’s complexion had improved, and at this moment, she was peacefully sleeping on the bed.

“Lin Feng, do I still need to give my mom a medicinal bath tonight?” Xia Shiyu asked cautiously.

“No need,” Lin Feng shook his head. “Auntie has recovered very well this time and doesn’t need a medicinal bath to invigorate her muscles and bones.”

“Okay.” Xia Shiyu nodded.

“Miss Xia, how much longer until the takeout arrives?” Lin Feng suddenly asked.

Xia Shiyu checked her phone and said, “Twenty-five minutes.”

“Twenty-five minutes is enough.” Lin Feng smiled, then took out a box of silver needles. “Miss Xia, you go to the kitchen to brew the medicine. I’ll give Auntie acupuncture here.”

“Alright, I’ll go brew the medicine now.”

Excited, Xia Shiyu rushed to the kitchen. She had memorized the steps for brewing the medicine, and after Lin Feng diverted her attention, he immediately used his new ability.

Soft light surrounded Xia Shiyu’s mother, continuously repairing her injured meridians. Three minutes later, Lin Feng stopped using his ability.

At the same time, beads of sweat formed on Lin Feng’s forehead.

“How is it, Lin Feng?” Xia Shiyu, having set the fire for brewing the medicine, walked out of the kitchen. At this moment, Lin Feng was pretending to finish the acupuncture.

“Auntie is fine now. She will wake up in two hours.”

“Really?”

“Really.”

As the acupuncture finished, the takeout that Xia Shiyu ordered arrived.

After a simple meal, Lin Feng estimated that it was time to leave. Xia Shiyu wanted to keep him, but Lin Feng refused.

“Miss Xia, Auntie is about to wake up. You should accompany her well. I’m not suitable to stay here…”

Seeing her attempts to keep him were futile, Xia Shiyu had no choice but to see Lin Feng off.

“Miss Xia, no need to see me off. Your mom is about to wake up…” Lin Feng smiled.

“Um… thank you, Lin Feng.”

Watching Lin Feng leave, Xia Shiyu returned to the room and saw her mother had opened her eyes, looking around in confusion.

Xia Shiyu immediately teared up.

“Mom…”
