Capítulo 1121: Chapter 1122: Sudden Upheaval in the Feeng Family! (4 Updates)
Heading north all the way, beyond Beiliang County, further north for about five hundred miles, is the border of the Heavenly Saint Empire.
Ling Feng and Tuoba Yan traveled north, spending about ten days in total before arriving at a city at the border of the Heavenly Saint Empire, Weiling City.
Located at the juncture of two countries, martial artists like Ling Feng are nurous and, as Ling Feng and Tuoba Yan were both wearing cloaks, they did not attract too much attention along the way.
“Next, we need to first investigate the location of the Feeng Family.”
Ling Feng whispered to Tuoba Yan, “Considering Feeng Yan’s skills, he should be quite famous within the Heavenly Saint Empire. Finding the location of the Feeng Family shouldn’t be too hard.”
Tuoba Yan slightly nodded. She had seen Feeng Yan in action before; with one move, the Prison Heaven Finger, he easily forced back the aggressive Yaan Jinghong, making him one of the top talents in the Heavenly Saint Empire.
“After a year has passed, I wonder if Feeng Yan has used the Blood Jade Spring Flower.”
Ling Feng brushed his nose; the Blood Jade Spring Flower is a life-saving spiritual dicine. If Feeng Yan hadn’t faced a life-and-death crisis, he wouldn’t have used it so quickly, but it’s also possible that Feeng Yan sold the Blood Jade Spring Flower.
In any case, they must first find Feeng Yan and then decide what to do next.
Ling Feng and Tuoba Yan checked into an inn in the west of the city, deciding to split up to gather information and regroup at the inn at dusk.
After having lunch, Ling Feng headed north of the city, while Tuoba Yan went south, keeping a low profile to avoid causing trouble.
Soon, Ling Feng arrived at a bustling street, full of people, which was ideal for gathering information.
Suddenly, he heard sothing interesting, unobtrusively moved closer to eavesdrop on a group of martial artists who were having lively discussions over drinks.
“Hehe, Wu Laosan, you must have heard about it, right? That place, Black Dragon Pond, has been surrounded by the Tiejian Sect’s Young Master with his n, it’s completely sealed off!”
“Hah! That’s old news. I knew about it long ago. That Young Master Qi brought along several Divine Origin Realm experts, sealing off Black Dragon Pond completely. It’s said even the Tiejian Sect’s Great Elder went with them, and Elder Ying is a King-level expert!”
“I guess there must be so treasure in Black Dragon Pond, otherwise, why would those profit-seeking folks of the Tiejian Sect go to that godforsaken place? Damn, we used to go to Black Dragon Pond occasionally to catch so demons to make a living. Now, we can only go to the more dangerous Wangbei Forest!”
“What can you do? Tiejian Sect is like a local overlord here in Weiling City. They can seal off Black Dragon Pond with a word, just like they could close the city gates of Weiling City if they wanted!”
…
Ling Feng shook his head. These territorial disputes and treasure hunts are common everywhere, but he wasn’t here for treasure hunting this ti. His priority was to gather information about the Feeng Family.
Thinking for a mont, Ling Feng approached the loud group of rowdy n and respectfully cupped his hands, smiling faintly, “Brothers, judging by your hearty discussions, I have a few questions to ask. Would you be able to help? This table’s drinks are on !”
“Oh?”
The n looked Ling Feng up and down, and their leader laughed, “Little brother is generous. Go ahead, what do you want to ask? If it’s sothing we know, we’ll certainly help.”
“Thank you, Brother!”
Ling Feng cupped his hands in gratitude again and smiled faintly, “I’m new here and want to ask about the Feeng Family in the Empire.”
“Feeng Family?”
The leading man’s expression changed slightly, “Which Feeng Family are you referring to, brother?”
“The Feeng Family where Feeng Yan, master of the Prison Heaven Finger, resides. Is there any other Feeng Family more famous in the Empire?”
Ling Feng smiled.
“What?” The man jumped, quickly gesturing for silence, “Kid, are you familiar with the Feeng Family mbers?”
Seeing the man’s expression, Ling Feng quickly replied, “Not really. I just heard of them and wanted to borrow sothing from the Feeng Family.”
“Kid, you can talk about this anywhere else, but not here in Weiling City. Otherwise, you’ll be misunderstood and may get arrested.”
The man whispered cautiously.
“Why is that? I heard the Feeng Family is quite famous in the Heavenly Saint Empire!”
“Famous, indeed, but things are not like they used to be.”
The leader shook his head, “A month ago, the Young Master Feeng Yan you ntioned disappeared inexplicably. Then ca the news of an alliance marriage between the Feeng Family and the Tiejian Sect. Think about it, the Feeng Family is such a huge entity and they’re linking up with a small local gang like the Tiejian Sect here in Weiling City? There’s definitely sothing fishy going on!”
“A few days ago, the Second Lady Feeng married the Sect Leader of the Tiejian Sect. Tsk tsk, such a pretty girl having to wed an old codger as a concubine! Do you think she would willingly do that? Even the Second Lady Feeng is a spirited individual; she ran away on the wedding night. After that, the Tiejian Sect has been searching all over the city for the Second Lady Feeng’s whereabouts. So, I’d advise you not to inquire too much about the Feeng Family, to avoid trouble!”
“I see.”
Ling Feng nodded, understanding that this tangle needed to be unraveled starting with the Tiejian Sect.
Feeng Yan’s disappearance is most likely connected to the Tiejian Sect!
Ling Feng sighed inwardly, hoping Feeng Yan was still alive. Otherwise, finding another Blood Jade Spring Flower in this vast world would be impossible.
“By the way, brothers, you just said the Tiejian Sect’s Young Master surrounded Black Dragon Pond. Does that an the Second Lady Feeng is in Black Dragon Pond?”
Ling Feng casually asked.
“That’s a possibility, but I don’t think so. Black Dragon Pond isn’t suitable for hiding.”
The leader replied confidently.
“Thank you, brothers.”
Ling Feng lightly tossed a pouch of Crystal Coins on the table, respectfully cupped his hands, and quickly left.
The n opened the pouch and were left aghast.
This pouch contained over a hundred Upper Grade Elental Stones. Such casual generosity for just asking a few questions—this little brother must have quite a remarkable background!
…
After leaving the busy market, Ling Feng found a stall selling maps and bought a map each of the Heavenly Saint Empire and Weiling City. He also gathered so information about the Tiejian Sect, and returned to the inn as dusk approached.
However, upon returning to the inn, Tuoba Yan had not yet co back.
Ling Feng furrowed his brow, recalling what those n had told him, and felt an alarm in his heart. He imdiately dashed toward the south of the city, fearing sothing was wrong.
