The Supreme Martial Expert of the Female CEO Chapter 2008 - 2005: The Display
With a wave of Ling Feng’s hand, a white light appeared in front of everyone, and then a scroll appeared in front of them.
This scroll was the legacy scroll of the Painter, the Hundred Refinents Diagram!
As Xin Tian, Sect Master Lan, and Xin Shuang set their eyes on the scroll, their minds were instantly captivated by it.
Ling Feng, as the master of the Hundred Refinents Diagram, could clearly feel that these three had already been captivated by the Diagram, and their minds were completely focused on it.
If Ling Feng were to activate the Hundred Refinents Diagram at this mont, the souls of these three would enter the diagram, and without Ling Feng’s permission, they might never co out for the rest of their lives.
Ling Feng let out a low roar, then waved his hand to put away the Hundred Refinents Diagram. At this mont, the three seed to awaken from a dream, each with a look of shock on their faces.
Cold sweat seeped out of Xin Tian’s forehead, and he realized that if Ling Feng had activated the Hundred Refinents Diagram just now, he might have gotten lost in it.
He exchanged a glance with Sect Master Lan, and both saw surprise in each other’s eyes.
"Worthy of the Painter’s legacy!" Sect Master Lan remarked with a sigh, "With our strength, we were captivated by it! But what is the purpose of this scroll?"
Ling Feng said, "The purpose of this scroll is very singular; it can enhance the mind of a cultivator, and beyond that, it has no other function!"
Enhance ntal cultivation? It is well-known that improving one’s ntal state is extrely difficult, but unexpectedly, the Painter’s scroll can indeed enhance a person’s ntal cultivation. If this gets out, it will surely attract a lot of coveting interest.
Even Xin Tian and Sect Master Lan had a brief thought of seizing the scroll, but they quickly dispelled such ideas, knowing that they weren’t in a position to fall out with Ling Feng, and even if they did, they might not be his match.
After all, Ling Feng had defeated Nan Yidao with a single punch, and was not soone they could bully as they did before.
"With this scroll in my hands, as long as the opponent is from Heaven’s Gate, I can completely seal their soul within the scroll!" Ling Feng said with a deeper aning, "Of course, if they’re not from Heaven’s Gate, I can also use the scroll to enhance their ntal cultivation, so there’s no need for the two of you to worry!"
"In that case, we’re relieved!" Xin Tian smiled, but his smile always seed a bit awkward.
Soon, the banquet ended. Ling Feng had in-depth conversations with Xin Tian and Sect Master Lan. Throughout this process, Xin Shuang didn’t say much, just looked at Ling Feng with a hint of concern, a touch of joy, and a trace of hesitation in her eyes—a complex blend of emotions.
During this ti, Ling Feng didn’t intentionally look at Xin Shuang, yet he could feel that her gaze mostly lingered on him.
After the banquet ended, Ling Feng returned to his room, and as soon as he did, there was a knock on the door: "Sect Master Ling, Xin Shuang requests to see you!"
Ling Feng furrowed his brow slightly, "Miss Xin Shuang, whatever it is, let’s discuss it tomorrow. It’s late, and you should get so rest."
But Xin Shuang did not leave; instead, she continued, "I have sothing important to tell Sect Master Ling, and I must say it tonight. I ask Sect Master Ling to open the door. Surely, you’re not afraid of a delicate woman like ?"
Ling Feng sighed and opened the door, seeing Xin Shuang there, "What is it that cannot wait?"
Xin Shuang looked at Ling Feng, "Won’t you invite in for a sit?"
Ling Feng hesitated for a mont, then stepped aside, "Co in."
Walking into the room, Xin Shuang sat on a chair to the side, more ethereal in her deanor than before.
"Miss Xin Shuang, please, tell why you’re here quickly. It isn’t good for your reputation if we, a man and a woman alone, stay together for too long." Ling Feng said with a wry smile.
Xin Shuang bit her lip, a hint of helplessness on her face, "Big Brother Ling, do you think reputation ans anything to ?"
Ling Feng frowned, looking at Xin Shuang without speaking.
"Big Brother Ling, I want to ask, was it because of how my grandfather acted towards you that you disliked , and that made you reject my affection?" Xin Shuang asked courageously, eting Ling Feng’s eyes.
Ling Feng exhaled softly, "I think you misunderstood. Although your grandfather’s attitude dissatisfied , I would never hold it against you! It’s just... I have no romantic feelings for you! My words may sound harsh, but I see you only as a friend, or even as a gentle, needful-of-protection sister! Do you understand?"
Xin Shuang sighed lightly, "I understand. That’s fine, too. I can finally give up... Big Brother Ling, be cautious of the Storm Sect and... the Xin Family!"
With that, Xin Shuang stood up, "It’s late. I won’t disturb your rest any longer. I’ll leave now!"
Xin Shuang turned and left. Ling Feng sighed softly, knowing well what she ant by coming to him at this hour. If he were willing to accept her, they could go to Mount Wu together that night.
Yet, Ling Feng’s response was to reject Xin Shuang without hesitation.
But what did her last words imply? Could it be that the Storm Sect and Xin Family intend to harm him? Ling Feng pondered for a while but couldn’t figure it out, so he brushed it aside.
After all, he never fully trusted the Storm Sect or the Xin Family. He would just have to be extra cautious when the ti ca.
During the following days, Ling Feng attended the rest of the Martial Arts Conference battles with Xin Tian and Sect Master Lan.
Yun Bufan successfully defeated ng Yu, but he paid a painful price. No one expected the typically low-key ng Yu to burst out with such a strong fighting power, causing Yun Bufan significant trouble. If Yun Bufan hadn’t been slightly superior, he might have ended up losing suddenly in this match.
The battle between Jian Qingchen and Nan Yidao was equally intense and spectacular. After a two-day rest, Nan Yidao’s strength had recovered substantially.
After nearly an hour of fierce fighting, it was Jian Qingchen who had the last laugh. Although Nan Yidao’s strength had recovered considerably, the previous injuries were too severe, and the recovery ti too short. Being able to fight Jian Qingchen to a standstill for one hour was already quite an achievent.
The representatives of the Xin Family and the Storm Sect were both eliminated, and by a single person, which was unexpected for many. The final showdown was scheduled for three days later, and the ti passed quickly. The Martial Arts Conference was gearing up for its final duel.
