Chapter 1240: Chapter 1239: Fair Competition

“Back then, it was precisely because of this situation that Daphne found in secret!” Ningxue explained helplessly, “Though I didn’t want to beco a mber of the Knights of the Round Table, I can’t deny that they once saved , and if I don’t help them now, I’ll feel guilty!”

“So you sneaked over here alone?” Ling Feng said irritably, “Do you realize how foolish that was? If even King Arthur’s descendant can do nothing, what difference can you make?”

Ningxue pouted, “Hey, you’re underestimating too much, aren’t you? I’m pretty strong now!”

“Sure, you’re so strong you couldn’t even make it past Heavy Water Lake!” Ling Feng blurted out.

Imdiately, Ningxue and Daphne’s faces changed, recalling an embarrassing mont earlier!

The atmosphere beca awkward all of a sudden!

Ling Feng coughed, forcibly changing the topic, “So, do you know what that mysterious person’s identity is? Why does he want to capture the Round Table Knights?”

Daphne and Ningxue exchanged a glance, and then said with a trace of bitterness, “That mysterious person… if I’m not mistaken, he’s from the Freedom Organization!”

Freedom Organization? Ling Feng was sowhat surprised, since when had the Freedom Organization beco so strong? Oh wait, the appearance of a Divine Realm Master implies involvent from an alternate dinsion, and the force behind the Freedom Organization…

Ling Feng took a deep breath, “It must be the people from Hell’s Gate!”

“That’s right, it’s the people from Hell’s Gate!” Daphne said, her eyes filled with unwillingness, “He’s too powerful, we are no match for him, so I have to follow what he says and strive to get the Divine Sword!”

“And then?” Ling Feng asked calmly, “Then use the Divine Sword to exchange for your subordinates?”

A cold glint flashed in Daphne’s eyes, “No, if he wants to use the Divine Sword in a trade, it shows he’s also afraid of the Divine Sword’s power. So… I will get the Divine Sword, I will kill him, and I will rightfully save my subordinates!”

Hearing Daphne’s words, Ling Feng felt relieved. If Daphne was really planning to use the Divine Sword for a trade, Ling Feng would never forgive her!

The Xuanyuan Sword is the saber of the Xuanyuan Saint Emperor, a sacred artifact in the hearts of the Huaxia people! Ling Feng would not allow anyone with defiling intentions to obtain it.

“Only the Rhinoceros Dragon can get the Seven-Star Leaf Fruit!” Ling Feng suddenly said calmly, “If you want to get the Seven-Star Leaf Fruit, there’s only one way, and that’s to please the Rhinoceros Dragon. Apart from this, don’t even think of making other plans!”

Daphne stared intently at Ling Feng, “Are you… planning to let have the Seven-Star Leaf Fruit?”

Ling Feng said irritably, “Let you have it? Are you kidding ! I’m just not looking to take advantage of you! This way, we start on equal footing, and whoever can get the Seven-Star Leaf Fruit in the end will depend on our own abilities! I think you also understand that the only way to win the Rhinoceros Dragon’s favor is to tell it stories.”

Saying this, Ling Feng turned and said, “I’m going to take a day off tomorrow, whether you can conquer the Rhinoceros Dragon depends on your own skills!”

With that, Ling Feng walked into the depths of the forest.

Ningxue blinked her eyes and then asked curiously, “Daphne, what’s going on between you and Ling Feng? I rarely see Ling Feng being so kind-hearted, especially towards won!”

Daphne’s face turned slightly red, “How did I not realize you’re so nosy? There’s nothing between and Ling Feng! I still need to prepare tomorrow’s story, I won’t talk to you anymore!”

Watching Daphne’s back, no matter how you look at it, there seed to be a sense of fleeing.

“Hmph, if you won’t tell , I’ll just ask Ling Feng!” Ningxue thought to herself, feeling very curious. With a woman’s intuition, she sensed there must be so secret between those two, and for a woman, not getting to the bottom of it would be incredibly frustrating.

Thinking this through, Ningxue caught up with Ling Feng.

“Why are you following ?” Ling Feng said, looking at Ningxue, “Don’t say anything, I won’t tell you anything!”

Ningxue was about to say sothing, but Ling Feng stopped her, making her fu, “Hey, hey, Ling Feng, that’s too much!”

Ling Feng reached out and ruffled her hair hard, making her tidy hair into a ss, saying irritably, “Too much? And you didn’t think you were being too much when you teased ? Or when you snuck away with Daphne?”

“Do you really think Atlantis is a holy land? You’re pretty lucky not to have died here!” There was a hint of dissatisfaction and sternness in Ling Feng’s voice.

Ningxue covered her head and said, feeling wronged, “What could I do? I can’t possibly co to you with every problem, can I?”

“Why not?” Ling Feng asked impatiently.

Ningxue said sheepishly, “I just didn’t want to make things difficult for Ting Yu. Besides… what right do I have to depend on you?”

By the end, Ningxue’s voice had lowered a lot, as if she were muttering to herself.

In truth, Ningxue knew Ling Feng considered her a very good friend. Their relationship was above re friendship but was lacking sothing important.

Ningxue didn’t want to seek out Ling Feng because she didn’t want to beco a woman who relied on n, and… she feared she might fall into the sa plights as Ting Yu and Han Rui!

Therefore, she preferred to keep a distance willingly rather than hurt others or herself!

Ling Feng sighed, and Ningxue’s muttering could hardly be hidden from him.

“Aren’t we friends?” Ling Feng said calmly, “Isn’t mutual help among friends the right thing to do?”

Seeing Ling Feng’s straightforward gaze, Ningxue felt a little touched, but a happy smile still appeared on her face, “Yes, we’re friends, so shouldn’t friends talk about everything? What’s up with you and Daphne?”

Ling Feng felt a headache coming, how did the topic circle back here?

“Hmph, I’m keeping an eye on you for Ting Yu and Han Rui!” Ningxue gave a sly smile, “I’m sure they don’t know about Daphne, do they? Should I tell them…”

“I give up!” Ling Feng said impatiently, “Please, don’t spread rumors. The relationship between and Daphne isn’t as simple or complex as you imagine!”

“Daphne was my target for my first mission.” Ling Feng said calmly.

With the veil of the Underworld lifted, Ling Feng hadn’t bothered to hide his days with the Divine Gate anymore.
