Lin Feng was peeved. He hadn't felt the sensation of being threatened in a long ti.
Looking at the text ssage on his phone, Lin Feng paused for a mont, then casually tapped the screen, replying, "Screw you!"
After rudely replying to the ssage, without a mont's hesitation, Lin Feng took out the Linglong Needle left by Xue Qingyi, quietly placed it beside his nose, and gently sniffed it. The pungent, spicy scent unique to the compound poison mixed by Xue Qingyi jolted his senses...
Apart from Xue Qingyi, even Zhou Yang, who was also a mber of the White Wolf Squad, was unaware that the poison on the Linglong Needle was actually created by Lin Feng—more accurately, it was made from a secret prescription in Lin Feng's superior dical scripture...
The compound poison, which contained both Abrus precatorius toxin and King Cobra venom, was originally colorless and tasteless. Lin Feng had deliberately added the peculiar spicy scent to the poison to prevent anyone from accidentally licking or ingesting the poison on the needle.
Now, this unique spicy scent had beco the key for Lin Feng to find Xue Qingyi's whereabouts...
Having reached the third level of Inner Strength, Lin Feng's perceptive abilities had improved significantly. However, when it ca to his sense of sll, Lin Feng could almost rival the most elite police dogs. It didn't take him much ti to trace the route Xue Qingyi had taken by following that unique scent.
"Lin Feng…" Seeing Lin Feng walking away looking sowhat distraught, Li Liping subconsciously followed him and called out to him worriedly.
"Don't follow …" Lin Feng frowned, gave Li Liping a very dark look, and said indifferently, "I have important things to do!"
"What on earth are you going to do…" Li Liping, who cared deeply for Lin Feng, suddenly felt a bit aggrieved. Although her feelings for Lin Feng weren't romantic, his cold attitude still made her feel uncomfortable.
"It's better if you don't know!" Lin Feng shook his head and didn't explain to Li Liping, leaving only his imposing back.
「...」
In a cabin near the Treasure Ship's engine room, Ling Yun stared blankly at his phone, an involuntary laugh escaping him as he read Lin Feng's abusive text ssage, unsure whether to laugh or cry.
Ling Yun rembered that the Wolf King was no graceful gentleman. Among the five core mbers of the White Wolf Troop, aside from Ling Long and Virus who were more simple-minded, the Wolf King, Zhou Yang, and Ling Yun himself were all extrely cunning old foxes.
The three operated on similar principles, one of which was: if they could do sothing to make their enemies uncomfortable, no matter how trivial, they would seize any opportunity to do it.
Seeing the text ssage, Ling Yun was genuinely annoyed. So, Lin Feng had achieved his goal.
"He's really sothing, being able to impersonate the team captain. Not bad at all..." Ling Yun casually tossed his phone on the table and chuckled.
However, no matter how much Ling Yun tried to mask it, the nacing expression on his face could not be concealed.
"Deputy Captain, why be so cautious about ssing with a brat? Just let a couple of our guys take their submachine guns, find him, and mow him down. Problem solved!" A man in his forties with a stubbled beard, noticing Ling Yun's irritation, casually suggested.
This man was Wei Qian, one of the gunn Ling Yun had brought from the Hei Sha rcenary Group. He was a bloodthirsty rcenary who regarded human life as worthless, having taken countless lives on the battlefield with his submachine gun.
"Yeah, Boss, since we brought submachine guns on board, what's there to be afraid of? Just find him and turn him into a hornet's nest!" another man beside Wei Qian added with a laugh.
Ling Yun glanced at his smug subordinates, shook his head, and asked with a laugh, "Do you really think money makes you invincible? Let tell you, from thirty ters away, even if you open fire, you won't hit him. And if it's within thirty ters, you won't even get the chance to aim and shoot. Believe it or not?"
"Is he really that incredible?!" Wei Qian and the other gunman exchanged glances, incredulous. They didn't believe Lin Feng could be that formidable. With their combined shooting skills, few in the world could dodge their coordinated fire. More importantly, not even Ling Yun could likely stop the two of them from opening fire if he tried.
"He's even more formidable than that! To be honest, I'm not confident I can defeat Lin Feng." Ling Yun shook his head. He now fully regarded Lin Feng as the forr White Wolf King, and his wariness of Lin Feng had gradually reached its peak.
"Boss, you're not kidding us, are you?" Astonished, Wei Qian and his companion stared at Ling Yun, their faces filled with bewildernt. They knew very well how terrifying Ling Yun was. If even Ling Yun was no match for Lin Feng, then just how terrifying could Lin Feng be?!
Wei Qian knew that even if he faced Ling Yun with a gun, he'd be nothing more than just a sowhat sturdier target. And if Ling Yun was no match for Lin Feng, then Lin Feng's strength was truly unfathomable!
"But I have a hostage. I'm not worried he won't walk right into my net!" Ling Yun smirked, about to pick up his phone and start sending deceptive text ssages to Lin Feng.
In Ling Yun's plan, although the ultimate goal was Lin Feng's death, he initially didn't want to appear in person. After all, he was a bit afraid...
Xue Qingyi could well understand Ling Yun's fear; she herself was also quite afraid of Lin Feng. This was a natural awe for the strong. Moreover, Xue Qingyi, like Ling Yun, was Lin Feng's half-apprentice.
This sense of awe had been instilled when Lin Feng sternly taught them Martial Arts; it had been strictly stipulated that neither of them was allowed to cause trouble or break the rules.
Ling Yun sent Lin Feng the location of a room rigged with a remote-controlled bomb. He was certain that if Lin Feng ca to rescue Xue Qingyi, he would surely charge into the fake room location he'd provided, desperately searching for clues to save her!
The room where Ling Yun and the two gunn were located was an independent suite. Zhou Yang and Xue Qingyi, whom Ling Yun had captured earlier, had their hands tied and were thrown into an inner room of the suite. The inner room, part of a suite with a balcony, was small and quite close to the sea surface. However, Ling Yun wasn't worried at all that Xue Qingyi and Zhou Yang would jump into the sea from the window; after all, it was the deep ocean below. Jumping into the ocean from a speeding cruise ship was undoubtedly a suicidal act.
Suddenly, a faint CLICK ca from the inner room of the suite. The two gunn from the Hei Sha rcenary Group instinctively glanced towards the room, only to be stunned as the door was gently pushed open and a cheerful-looking young man walked out!
This man was none other than Lin Feng. He had already freed Zhou Yang and Xue Qingyi from their bonds inside.
"Ling Yun, we finally et again..." Lin Feng looked at the bewildered Ling Yun and said with a low chuckle.
