Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique

Chapter 558: Chapter 27 Sarcasm and Mockery

Five fellow disciples of Qiu Hanying flew in, swiftly descending.

These five, three men and two women.

The leader was a young man dressed in a gold brocade gown, named Jin Zhehan.

The man in blue was named Wu He.

The man in green was named Wang Lin.

The two women were both exceptionally beautiful, one cold as frost, the other alluring and enchanting.

The cold one was called Leng Xingya.

And the provocative, charming woman was named Qi Yixi.

”Sister Qiu Hanying, we’ve finally found you,” Jin Zhehan said excitedly, with a fervent look in his eyes as he gazed at Qiu Hanying.

Lin Feng had previously talked with Qiu Hanying and knew that she came from ”Cangzhou’s Nine-star Mountain.”

Cangzhou bordered the Desert Domain, and Nine-star Mountain of Cangzhou was one of the three top-level forces there, with formidable strength.

This time, with the opening of the Thunder Blade Secret Realm, Nine-star Mountain of Cangzhou also sent many disciples to participate.

And Qiu Hanying’s mother had an extraordinary status—she was one of the nine Peak Masters of Nine-star Mountain of Cangzhou.

This was terrifying, Lin Feng guessed that Qiu Hanying’s mother might be a person of ”Great Ability,” and Qiu Hanying was definitely treated like a ”Princess” at Nine-star Mountain of Cangzhou. This was evident from the way the five disciples of Nine-star Mountain looked at Qiu Hanying, with a hint of awe in their demeanors.

”Senior Brother Jin, it’s you guys.”

...

Qiu Hanying, upon seeing her own fellow disciples, also appeared very happy.

”It’s great that Sister is unharmed. By now, the Senior Sister and the others must be searching for you as well. We’ve arranged to meet in a trade area ten days from now,” Jin Zhehan said with a smile.

Lin Feng speculated that the Senior Sister Jin Zhehan mentioned must be the Senior Sister of the Inner Academy of Nine-star Mountain, certainly a Demon Level character.

”Let’s go meet Senior Sister, then,” Qiu Hanying said with a smile, then she turned to Lin Feng and said, ”Brother Feng, why don’t you join us too? It would be good to train together.”

Qiu Hanying grabbed Lin Feng’s hand, looking at him full of anticipation.

Lin Feng had initially wanted to decline, but after giving it some thought, he decided to at least escort Qiu Hanying to the Senior Sister before leaving.

Because, although the strength of these few people was not bad, after all, they weren’t considered top experts, and if something were to happen along the way, they likely wouldn’t have the ability to protect Qiu Hanying.

Seeing Qiu Hanying actually take the initiative to grab Lin Feng’s hand and be so close, all five disciples from Nine-star Mountain showed surprised expressions.

They were well aware that Qiu Hanying, despite her innocence, never engaged in excessively intimate actions with the opposite sex. Yet now, their bodies were almost touching, and the tone of her voice even carried a hint of coquetry, resembling that of a couple. Naturally, the disciples from Nine-star Mountain were shocked and found it hard to believe.

Jin Zhehan’s face suddenly darkened. He was at the Seventh Level of Martial King Realm, and he was on the verge of advancing to the Eighth Layer Heaven, ready to become an Inner Academy Disciple of Nine-star Mountain, with a bright future ahead of him.

Jin Zhehan had always been pursuing Qiu Hanying, showing her unwavering attention for two reasons. Firstly, because Qiu Hanying was indeed beautiful and charming. Secondly, because Qiu Hanying’s mother was one of the Nine Great Peak Masters of Nine-star Mountain. If he could win over Qiu Hanying, not only would he gain a beautiful wife, but his own status would also rise dramatically, shooting to success.

However, Qiu Hanying ignored the attentions of any male disciple, naturally including Jin Zhehan.

Now, seeing Qiu Hanying, whom he had tirelessly pursued without any success, being so dependent and intimate with some unknown young man who appeared out of nowhere, a raging fire of anger ignited in Jin Zhehan’s heart, along with, of course, a greater sense of jealousy.

”Junior Sister Hanying, who is this person?” Jin Zhehan asked coldly as he glanced at Lin Feng.

Qiu Hanying said, ”This is Brother Feng, Lin Feng.”

Then Qiu Hanying introduced her five fellow disciples to Lin Feng.

After sensing Lin Feng’s realm, the five quickly realized that Lin Feng was merely at the Martial General Realm, and immediately, each displayed a look of disdain.

Qi Yixi spoke up, ”Junior Sister Hanying, you are still young. Do not let yourself be deceived. Avoid associating carelessly with all kinds of riffraff, for who knows if they might harbor ill intentions?”

Qiu Hanying responded, ”My Brother Feng is not that kind of person, Brother Feng has been very good to me.”

Lin Feng could only give a bitter smile, as the naïve girl seemed unaware of the scorn and indifference from her fellow disciples towards him.

”Let’s do this: first, we’ll head to that trading area to meet up with the senior sister and the others,” suggested Leng Xingya.

The group set off towards the trading area mentioned by the others. Seeing Lin Feng following along, Qiu Hanying appeared very pleased.

Throughout their journey, Qiu Hanying spent most of her time with Lin Feng. As for the constant snide remarks her fellow disciples made towards him, Lin Feng, out of respect for Qiu Hanying, chose not to engage with them. Of these five people, the only one Lin Feng felt some affinity towards was Leng Xingya, who spoke little and did not take part in the mocking of Lin Feng with the others.

That night, Jin Zhehan, Wu He, Wang Lin, and Qi Yixi came to the place where Lin Feng was resting and looked at him with cold eyes.

”Is there something you need?” Lin Feng asked them indifferently.

With a cold sneer, Jin Zhehan said, ”Kid, you don’t even have the guts to take a piss and see for yourself what you are. Do you think you’re worthy of Junior Sister Hanying?”

”Junior Sister Hanying is a treasured pearl in the hand of one of the Nine-star Mountain Peak Masters; you’re just a toad lusting after a swan’s flesh,” Wu He mocked.

Wang Lin spoke in a tone neither cold nor warm, ”One should know their own limits, understand? While Junior Sister Hanying is resting, you should take the hint and make yourself scarce.”

”Our mission is to take care of Junior Sister Hanying and prevent some unsavory characters from approaching her. If you have any sense, you’ll know what to do. Here are one hundred Low Grade Spirit Stones; take them for your cultivation. With these Spirit Stones, you’ll be able to reach the Martial King Realm sooner. Now, take the stones and leave quickly.”

Qi Yixi threw a bag containing Spirit Stones at Lin Feng.

Looking at their condescending expressions, Lin Feng’s brows slightly furrowed. He threw the Spirit Stones back and said coolly, ”Once I have escorted Hanying to your senior sister, I will leave on my own. If there’s nothing else, you may leave.”

Qi Yixi spoke disdainfully, ”You, with your Martial General Realm cultivation, have the audacity to say you’ll escort Junior Sister Hanying to our senior sister? If we really face danger, won’t you just become a burden to us?”

”Kid, with your level of cultivation, I could take care of you with just one hand. If you know what’s good for you, you’ll leave promptly, and don’t force us to take action,” Jin Zhehan said with a sneer.
