"Xiao Feng!" ×2
Qian Renxue and Ling Yuan were shocked, especially Qian Renxue.
She had just been thinking about how to tease Lin Feng next while in the "hot pot." What was Lin Feng doing? Couldn't he control himself and just jump in?
Her body, tempered by ice and fire, wasn't afraid of the extreme cold and heat.
But Lin Feng? He hadn't undergone any immortal herb transformation.
The energy in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was something even a Title Douluo couldn't withstand.
Damn it, who was the one who sneak-attacked me?
No martial virtue!
Ling Yuan wanted to step forward but was held back by the overwhelming energy of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. As Lin Feng tumbled through the air, Qian Renxue stood up from the "hot pot," her arms reaching out to catch him.
Gu Yuena tilted her head slightly, surprised by Qian Renxue's reaction. She glanced down at her human form.
With a slight raise of her hand, she made a subtle gesture.
"Huh?—"
Qian Renxue's eyes widened as her standing figure suddenly fell backward.
With a splash, she completely submerged into the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, and Lin Feng also fell into the water.
"Xiao Feng! Huh?"
The three of them looked in shock, only to see a faint glow surrounding Lin Feng's body, protecting him.
Although all his clothes had been dissolved by the extreme energies, his body remained unharmed.
In the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Lin Feng seemed to be enjoying a medicinal bath, the soothing energy flowing over his body.
The soul veins within him began to circulate on their own.
Especially the one representing the heart fire, which greedily absorbed the energy from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
As for the last part of Lin Feng's Five Elements Soul Veins, the kidney water area.
The sudden influx of extreme cold energy began to gather there, forming a blue circular energy.
Gradually, it solidified into a ring, resting quietly in Lin Feng's kidney area. As the energy continued to gather, the ring didn't expand but became more solid.
In Lin Feng's perception, the ring emitted a faint blue light, gradually covering his five soul veins.
Although the fifth soul vein was still missing, the ring's presence caused the five veins to resonate with each other.
The comfort brought by this circulation almost made Lin Feng moan in pleasure.
"Xiao Feng! What's wrong with you?"
Qian Renxue frantically pushed through the water to reach Lin Feng's side.
Her eyes widened as she saw Lin Feng trembling slightly, his face showing a look of pleasure.
Qian Renxue's expression turned strange as she glanced at Ling Yuan, who was also stunned:
"Sister Ling Yuan, what's happening to Xiao Feng?"
"Phew—"
Lin Feng exhaled deeply and opened his eyes:
"I suddenly feel like I understand what it means to feel refreshed..."
Before he could fully grasp the situation with the faint glow around him, Lin Feng was startled by the sight before him.
In an instant, he realized that some powerful being must be playing tricks on him.
This was bad!
Who knew who it was? If it were Bi Ji or Zi Ji, that would be one thing. But if it were Di Tian, that would be a problem.
In a flash, Lin Feng shielded Qian Renxue behind him, covering her body, and spoke coldly:
"Which senior is here, playing tricks on us juniors? Hiding in the shadows is beneath your dignity, isn't it?!"
Gu Yuena glanced at Zi Ji and motioned with her chin.
Zi Ji sighed inwardly but projected her voice to the group:
"Lin Feng, it's been a while. Did you enjoy the surprise?"
Lin Feng's mouth twitched. Enjoy? Not really.
If you had put yourself in here for a bath, that might have been a surprise.
Qian Renxue snorted coldly and helped Lin Feng out of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. In an instant, they were both dressed.
"Senior, what brings you here this time?
The last time we met, you said some cryptic things and then disappeared. Don't you think that's disrespectful to our Spirit Hall?"
Ling Yuan stepped in front of Lin Feng and Qian Renxue:
"Since you know our names and identities, why not show yourself and talk to us directly? Wouldn't that be better?"
Ling Yuan's hands glowed with flames. Unlike before, she was now a Title Douluo and had the confidence to confront Zi Ji.
Zi Ji narrowed her eyes:
"Hmph, what good would it have done to tell you back then? Some things aren't meant to be known, even now."
Gu Yuena stopped Zi Ji, her voice a mix of coldness, charm, and playfulness echoing through the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well:
"Lin Feng, you seem quite familiar with this place?"
Lin Feng's expression turned serious. The voice alone gave him the impression of someone noble and transcendent. Could it be the Silver Dragon King?
Why had she awakened early and come looking for him?
"I've read about it in ancient texts. The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well is one of the three great treasure lands."
Gu Yuena scoffed:
"Ancient texts? Do those texts mention how such a place, filled with so-called immortal herbs, came to be?
Do you know how rare the energy and resources required to create something like this are?"
Qian Renxue frowned:
"Senior, what exactly are you trying to say?"
Gu Yuena tilted her head, a glint of light in her vertical pupils:
"I'm here to tell you that this place has an owner, and now, its owner has arrived."
Lin Feng's heart raced. From her words, it was clear that this was indeed the Silver Dragon King.
With the gods of the Divine Realm absent, she was the strongest being on Douluo Star. Even with only the power of a third-level god, she could dominate the world.
Lin Feng quickly cupped his hands toward the source of the voice:
"Then, senior, what guidance do you have for us?"
Gu Yuena narrowed her eyes, puzzled by Lin Feng's reaction:
"Since the owner has arrived, shouldn't the thieves who took the treasures from this empty house pay some price?"
Ling Yuan frowned, her Phoenix martial soul manifesting behind her.
"Senior, please don't—"
"Hmph, a little phoenix dares to act recklessly here? Step back!"
A terrifying dragon's might surged forth, forcing Ling Yuan's Phoenix martial soul back into her body.
The Phoenix phantom instantly dissipated, as if it had encountered a natural predator, leaving her with no will to resist.
"Pfft—"
Ling Yuan spat out a mouthful of blood, staring in shock at the direction of the voice. Even the pressure alone was controlled with extreme precision, targeting only her.
With just a thought, she had been rendered unable to summon her martial soul.
What kind of power was this? Was this even human?
"Sister Ling Yuan!"
Lin Feng and Qian Renxue rushed forward anxiously. "Breath of Life."
Lin Feng's eyes turned cold, his voice carrying a hint of anger:
"Senior, please stop messing around. You won't hurt us."
