After Defying the Villain’s Fate for Nine Lifetimes, the Heroines Turn Mad!

Chapter 74

After escaping from the dense forest, Lin Feng looked extremely disheveled.

At this moment, his face was swollen, and blood was still spilling out from his left shoulder, flowing down his arm and completely soaking the clothes on his left arm.

He gasped for air and quickly popped a hemostatic pill into his mouth, then looked around cautiously.

“Lin Mubai didn’t follow you probably because his vital energy is depleted,” Old Man Tianji said, his voice even weaker than before.

Hearing this, Lin Feng let out a long sigh of relief.

He was now beside a spacious road, with neatly cut stones of various sizes scattered along the roadside.

He exclaimed angrily as he picked a stone to sit on, “Damn it! Ever since I came to the Central Domain, not only have I been burrowing like a rat, but I’ve also been chased everywhere! I’ve been in mortal danger several times!”

“Indeed, something is strange. If you had really offended someone, that would be one thing, but you’ve just arrived in the Central Domain and have already encountered three people who want to kill you for no reason,” Old Man Tianji was puzzled.

After a moment of thought, he continued, “Moreover, all three of them are disciples of the Jiuyan Sect’s Ninth Peak, which is no coincidence! I suggest we return to the Lower Domain first. I will peek into the thread of destiny once my soul power is fully recovered, and then we can make further plans.”

But if that were the case, wouldn’t he be fleeing with his tail between his legs?

After all, he was the Son of Destiny. How could he retreat instead of advancing?

Also, the cultivation resources in the Lower Domain were far inferior to those in the Central Domain.

Moreover, if one becomes timid on the path of cultivation, it could greatly affect one’s state of mind.

It might not matter in the short term, but as one’s cultivation level increases, it could give rise to inner demons!

Old Man Tianji was naturally well aware of this.

But now, with his soul power severely overdrawn and the thread of destiny obscured, he could only make such a suggestion.

“I refuse to believe this evil omen!”

Lin Feng’s expression suddenly turned resolute, and he said earnestly, “The fearless heart must not be abandoned. It’s just Jiang Chen and two lunatics, right? Once I enter the Jiuyan Sect, there will be ways to deal with them!”

“The Jiuyan Sect is a first-rate sect in the Central Domain, and there are rumors that the ancestor Jiuyan came from the Upper Domain,” Old Man Tianji said with concern.

“A glimpse reveals the whole leopard. Such a sect has produced two mad geniuses… I worry that something is not right with the Jiuyan Sect!”

“How could that be?”

Lin Feng waved his hands dismissively, “Firstly, it’s not uncommon for cultivators to go mad, and secondly, even if the Jiuyan Sect is not right, could it be that everyone there has gone mad?”

Old Man Tianji fell silent.

Reason told him that Lin Feng made sense, but for some reason, he still felt a bit uneasy.

Cultivators wouldn’t act this way without reason. There must be a cause!

But he couldn’t figure out what the problem was right now.

“Just to be safe, tell me how much soul power you have left,” Lin Feng asked again.

“None, none at all! Not even a little bit left!” Old Man Tianji immediately shook his head like a rattle drum.

“You old scoundrel, you must be deceiving me again! Tou say your soul power is depleted every time, yet you can always squeeze out a bit more at the critical moment! Can’t you be more straightforward and not act like a woman?”

“I can barely infuse you with soul power one more time.”

“Really?”

“…I can still possess you one more time.”

“What?!”

Lin Feng was shocked and unable to believe it! He could be possessed one more time?

Then, was there any need for him to be humiliated and almost killed by Lin Mubai?

In his anger, he shouted, “Old Man Tianji, I was wrong about you! How could you deceive me like this? Are you an undercover agent sent by Jiang Chen?!”

To this, Old Man Tianji could only explain helplessly, “I had no choice. Controlling your body consumes a lot of soul power, and if I do it again, I will fall directly into a deep sleep. You’ve just arrived in the Central Domain and it’s already fraught with danger. It would be too risky if I fell asleep now.”

This explanation somewhat quelled Lin Feng’s anger.

Said is said, done is done.

He and Old Man Tianji shared weal and woe, and he still trusted him.

As Old Man Tianji said, the Central Domain was indeed too dangerous, practically hellish in difficulty.

Without Old Man Tianji’s support, the difficulty would only multiply.

“How long will it last if you fall into a deep sleep?” Lin Feng asked gravely.

“If there are special treasures to nourish the soul, it would only take a few days to wake up, but without them…”

“Without them, what?”

“I had just woken up from a deep sleep when I met you, but hundreds of years had already passed.”

“…Hundreds of years?”

Lin Feng was shocked again.

Did that mean if something happened to him while Old Man Tianji was asleep, he wouldn’t even become dust by the time Old Man Tianji woke up?

“That’s why I suggest you return to the Lower Domain. That’s the safest strategy!” Old Man Tianji sighed.

Hearing this, Lin Feng wavered.

Although the beautiful Senior Sister was tempting, it would definitely not be worth it if he lost his life in the process.

He was indeed lustful, but he valued his own life more.

“…Let me think about it.”

He was torn inside.

And just as he was deep in thought, clear footsteps came from the dense forest behind him.

This scared Lin Feng into jumping up! But after turning around sharply, he let out a sigh of relief.

Someone was indeed coming, but it wasn’t Lin Mubai.

It was a young man with a sharp chin and monkey cheeks, holding a brick in each hand, whose cultivation was only at the early stage of

Initial Formation.

Against such an opponent, even Lin Feng in his current state could easily kill him in a second.

The young man was also startled upon seeing Lin Feng.

Especially after seeing the gruesome wound on Lin Feng’s left shoulder, he had a hard time swallowing his saliva.

Lin Feng approached him as the young man pondered whether to run away.

“Can I know your name, brother?” Lin Feng asked with a smile upon arriving.

Although he smiled amiably and his tone and demeanor were very friendly, the young man still found it displeasing somehow.

As Lin Feng’s cultivation was higher than his, the young man had no choice but to reply,

“Liu Wu.”

“Judging by your attire, you are a disciple of the Jiuyan Sect?” Lin Feng asked again.

“Indeed, I am the number one underling of the Ninth Peak’s fifth Senior Sister!”

“Really?!”

Lin Feng immediately became excited.

In fact, he also found Liu Wu displeasing, but having finally met a normal disciple of the Jiuyan Sect, he had to gather some intelligence.

He naturally knew.

The Peak Master of the Jiuyan Sect’s Ninth Peak was the beautiful Master he had never met. And the so-called fifth Senior Sister was, of course, Jiang Lianyue!

Rumor had it that both women were top-notch beauties!

“Old Man Tianji, this is a turn of luck! I’ll have this guy take me to Jiang Lianyue, then have Jiang Lianyue protect me to the Jiuyan Sect, and there will be no more danger!” Lin Feng thought to himself with a smile.

Old Man Tianji did not respond, only pondering what Liu Wu was doing here in the middle of the night.

“This… Brother Liu!”

Stepping forward, Lin Feng put his arm around Liu Wu’s neck and said, “To be honest, I’m planning to join the Jiuyan Sect’s Ninth Peak. We will soon be fellow disciples, so how about you take me to meet Senior Sister?”

With a strange look on his face, Liu Wu glanced at Lin Feng and retorted, “Are you sure? Fifth Senior Sister… she doesn’t have the best temper.”

“No worries!”

Lin Feng said generously with a wave of his hand, “I’ve heard that Fifth Senior Sister has the demeanor of an empress, so it’s normal for her to be a bit proud.”

“But she beats people up, and it really hurts.”

“I’m not afraid. I can take a beating. By the way, how many people have gone mad in the Jiuyan Sect?”

“…It seems that you already have some information! I didn’t expect you to know because the sect has strictly kept this matter secret. But knowing this, you still dare to seek an apprenticeship with the Jiuyan Sect and meet Senior Sister?”

“Ah, it’s all minor issues. Those who have gone mad are still quite easy to get along with.”

“Hisss! Hero, please accept my bow!”

“Brother Liu, please get up, I can’t accept such a grand gesture! Besides, you still haven’t told me how many have gone mad.”

“We’re all friends here, so I won’t hide it from you. There are two in total!”

Two people?

Lin Feng’s eyes spun.

Qingning one, Lin Mubai one. Isn’t that exactly two?

With no further concerns, he cheerfully went with Liu Wu to meet Jiang Lianyue.
