Chapter 600: Chapter 496: Both You and I - 2
"Help you get out from the control of Heavenly Spirit Sect?"
Lin Feng nodded upon hearing this and said without hesitation, "If one day I truly reach that level, I will help you."
Lin Feng now wanted to leave as soon as possible, so promising them was no harm. Future matters could be discussed in the future, however, Lin Feng did not quite believe that the other party would let him go that easily.
Jin Li smiled slightly and said, "Good, I hope you are a man of your word. If you really manage to do this, my Horned Demon Clan will truly recognize you, honor you, and submit to you!"
Lin Feng’s expression was indifferent. The strength of the Horned Demon Clan was not strong, with the strongest member seeming only to have the cultivation of the First Layer Earth Martial Master, and they were so oppressed by the Heavenly Spirit Sect that they couldn’t even hold their heads up high. If he truly reached the Martial King Realm, whether the Horned Demon Clan submitted to him or not had no real significance.
Jin Li seemed to see the thoughts in Lin Feng’s mind and smiled slightly, saying, "My Horned Demon Clan is not as simple as you think. Our clan has inherited from ancient times and our foundation far exceeds that of the Heavenly Spirit Sect. Once we break free from their control, we can rapidly grow strong!"
"Oh?"
Lin Feng was surprised and then nodded, not knowing what the foundation of the Horned Demon Clan was, but the fact that this clan had been passed down from ancient times probably meant there was something extraordinary about it.
"Don’t worry, elder! I assure you, if I have the capability in the future, I will definitely help you escape your predicament."
Lin Feng said sincerely, but his thoughts were entirely different.
"You Horned Demon Clan killed my three fellow disciples, and you still want me to help you? Once I become powerful, the first thing I’ll do is annihilate your clan!" Lin Feng thought coldly to himself.
"Haha! Good!"
Jin Li saw Lin Feng’s sincere promise and laughed out loud twice. After pondering for a moment, he said, "However, I hope you can take someone out with you."
"Take who out?" Lin Feng asked in confusion.
"My granddaughter, Cai Yun," Jin Li laughed.
"Cai Yun?" Lin Feng was surprised; wasn’t that the beautiful Horned Demon woman who had captured him?
"Exactly!"
Jin Li said, "I hope you can take Cai Yun out of the Horned Demon Realm!"
Jin Li didn’t fully trust Lin Feng, so he wanted Lin Feng to take Cai Yun out with him. Cai Yun’s talent can be said to be the greatest in the Horned Demon Clan for centuries. Once she leaves the Horned Demon Realm, her future accomplishments could be boundless.
Even if Lin Feng failed to grow stronger in the future, or if he eventually refused to assist the Horned Demon Clan, Cai Yun would be their greatest hope.
As for any danger Cai Yun might face following Lin Feng out, Jin Li wasn’t too worried.
With her beauty, Lin Feng would surely not lay a hand on her. As long as Lin Feng had no malice, there wouldn’t be any major problems.
"Okay!"
Lin Feng thought for a moment and then nodded in agreement, though he sneered continuously in his heart.
Once that woman leaves the Horned Demon Realm, she’ll see what’s coming!
No matter how powerful you are, once you’re in the Heavenly Spirit Sect, you’re just going to obediently surrender.
While in the Demon Suppression Castle inn, Lin Feng had heard that some disciples of the Heavenly Spirit Sect liked capturing female Horned Demon people to serve as maids, or even as toys in the bedroom. With her looks, surely many would want her, and by then she could be sold for a good price!
As for him taking advantage, Lin Feng wasn’t into such exotic tastes. He harbored no perverse thoughts towards such abnormal humans.
"Haha! Young friend Lin Feng, truly decisive!"
Jin Li laughed upon hearing this, and then, with a smile, he said, "Since that’s the case, I won’t keep you any longer. Go on, take your fellow disciples and head back!"
"Fellow disciples?" Lin Feng was stunned.
"Exactly! The few Heavenly Spirit Sect disciples who were with you," Jin Li explained.
"What? They’re not dead?"
Lin Feng was immediately overjoyed, as he had always been under the impression that Feng Shaoyu and the other two had already died at the hands of the Horned Demon people, which had been troubling him.
"Of course, the five of them are your companions; naturally, we wouldn’t kill them."
Jin Li smiled and said, "Now, they’ve had their cultivation sealed and are imprisoned. I’ll order someone to release them right now!"
With those words, Jin Li instructed someone outside the grand hall, "Send someone to release those five captured Heavenly Spirit Sect disciples! Bring them here!"
"Yes, Clan Leader!" From outside the Stone Hall, a Horned Demon guard immediately took the order.
"Five people?" Lin Feng was momentarily stunned, then suddenly realized that it seemed Chang Qi and Hou Pengfei had also been captured.
"Wait!" Lin Feng suddenly spoke up, stopping the guard.
"Lin Feng, what else is there?" Jin Li asked in confusion.
"I’ll go along with them!" Lin Feng said.
Jin Li nodded and then Lin Feng followed the guard toward the prison of the Horned Demon Clan.
"Chang Qi, Hou Pengfei, both of you will stay here forever!" Lin Feng sneered in his heart, those two had pursued him, he could not possibly let them leave.
Lin Feng followed the Horned Demon guard, and soon arrived at the dungeon of the Horned Demon Clan.
The dungeon of the Horned Demon Clan was built underground, dim and lightless, with stone chambers scattered throughout a vast underground space. Lin Feng followed the Horned Demon guard, and soon they arrived in front of a stone chamber door.
"They are inside this stone chamber," said the Horned Demon guard to Lin Feng, then opened the stone chamber.
Lin Feng looked intently; in the stone chamber no more than fifteen meters in radius, Feng Shaoyu’s group of three and Chang Qi’s group of two were all sitting cross-legged.
At this moment, Feng Shaoyu looked extremely miserable. Although his hair had returned to black, due to the use of the Great Three Treasures Technique, his essence, energy, and spirit had greatly diminished, his face pale as paper, his aura extremely weak.
"Eleventh disciple!"
"Eleventh disciple!"
"Eleventh disciple!"
As Lin Feng stepped into the stone chamber, Feng Shaoyu’s group of three instantly exclaimed and hastily stood up.
"Eleventh disciple, you’re alive! I thought you were dead!" Tian Chen exclaimed joyously.
Feng Shaoyu and Yun Fei were equally overjoyed; however, their expressions quickly darkened again.
"Alas! Our cultivation is sealed, and being here is merely a slow death!"
Yun Fei sighed and asked, "Eleventh disciple, how were you captured?"
Yun Fei thought that Lin Feng’s cultivation was also sealed and that he would be imprisoned here too.
"That’s a long story, I’ll tell you later when we get back!" After saying this, Lin Feng walked straight toward Chang Qi and Hou Pengfei.
"Get back?" Yun Fei and Tian Chen’s trio, upon hearing this, were all stunned. Could they really go back?
"The two of you chased and attacked us last time, I still remember that grudge!" Lin Feng stood in front of Chang Qi and looked down at the two sitting cross-legged, a cold smile curving at the corner of his mouth.
"Hmph! So what if we pursued you? You were just lucky not to be killed by me on the spot!" Chang Qi sat cross-legged on the floor, scoffing in disdain.
"We are indeed lucky! But you’re not so fortunate!" Lin Feng said indifferently, a murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
"We are all going to die here, where is this luck of ours?" Hou Pengfei shook his head and sneered.
"You will die, but we will not." Lin Feng said.
"Oh?"
Chang Qi and Hou Pengfei, upon hearing this, raised their eyebrows and asked, "What do you mean?"
"Because I am going to kill you!" Lin Feng said with a faint smile.
Chang Qi and Hou Pengfei were taken aback, then burst into laughter, "Ha ha! Lin Feng, have you been scared silly? Our cultivation is sealed, we’re all prisoners here; what can you do to kill us?"
Chang Qi and Hou Pengfei were full of disdain, not taking Lin Feng’s words seriously.
At this moment, a fierce light flashed in Lin Feng’s eyes; he reached out with both hands and grabbed an arm of each person.
Then, Lin Feng slightly squeezed his palms.
Crack! Crack!
Two crisp sounds of bones breaking rang out, and instantly, the arms of Chang Qi and Hou Pengfei broke.
Ah! Ah!
Both of them screamed and quickly retreated back to the wall.
"Your cultivation is not sealed?"
"How is this possible?"
Chang Qi and Hou Pengfei cried out in fright, then, Hou Pengfei hurriedly looked towards the dungeon door’s Horned Demon guard, shouting, "He still has his cultivation, why aren’t you catching him?"
However, the Horned Demon guard remained unmoved, showing no intention of making a move.
Chang Qi and Hou Pengfei were instantly baffled, unable to understand.
Feng Shaoyu’s trio were also astonished, Lin Feng’s cultivation was not sealed, and the Horned Demons were not capturing him; what was going on?
"Tell me, who directed you to kill us? I might leave you an intact corpse." Lin Feng’s gaze was as sharp as a knife, staring straight at Chang Qi and Hou Pengfei.
Chang Qi and Hou Pengfei remained silent, all staring at Lin Feng with ashen faces.
"Very good, I like tough bones!"
Lin Feng’s eyes flashed with a hint of mocking amusement, and then his longsword suddenly unsheathed. The blade shimmered, blood sprayed, and four arms were thrown flying.
