Chapter 1233: Chapter 1232: The Method
Ling Feng stared at the masked woman and said, "If you can take off the veil on your face and let me see your true appearance, Iāll reveal my strategy!"
Daphne, upon hearing this, shot a slightly jealous glance at the masked woman. To her, it was clear that Ling Feng had some thoughts about the masked woman!
The masked woman was momentarily stunned, then chuckled and said, "Forget it, Iām too ugly, I better not scare you! Besides... I have no interest in passing any test."
"If youāre not interested, why did you come then?" Ling Feng asked curiously.

The masked woman chuckled softly, "After all, Iām a member of the Round Table Knights, and naturally, Iām here at the behest of Captain Daphne!"
At this point, Daphne interjected, "Ling Feng, I donāt think this is the time for you to tease my subordinates, is it? Whatās your strategy? Hurry up and tell us!"
Ling Feng looked at the tall and enchanting masked woman. He couldnāt believe she was ugly! She definitely didnāt want him to see her true appearance!
Itās not that Ling Feng was blind to beauty at this moment, but the masked woman indeed gave him a very familiar feeling. Ling Feng was sure that this masked woman was someone he knew, perhaps someone he was even very close to!
However, recalling everyone around him, he couldnāt think of anyone who fit that description! Besides, there were only thirteen people in the Round Table Knights, other than Daphne, Ling Feng really didnāt know anyone else in the group.
"She truly is a highly vigilant woman!" Ling Feng thought to himself.
"Hey, Ling Feng, are you listening to me!" Daphne said angrily, "Donāt you want to pass the test?"
Ling Feng looked at Daphne, smiled, and said, "Daphne, whatās the hurry? Havenāt you heard the saying, āthe hasty will not eat the hot tofuā? As for the plan... I already have it now!"
A plan? Daphne and the masked woman brightened up, their eyes gleaming with curiosity.
Ling Feng didnāt continue to keep them in suspense, because the action for this plan would be quite big, and he couldnāt hide it from them. Furthermore, with their assistance, Ling Fengās actions could be swifter.
"The Seven-Star Leaf Fruit is guarded by a monster beast!" Ling Feng said in a serious tone, "Thatās what the Xuanyuan Sword told us, which means this monster beast must be extremely terrifying, at least a ruler of its domain!"
The two women nodded slightly; this was indisputable.
"As long as itās a monster beast, it must have the unique trait of monster beasts! That is a strong drive to control its territory!" Ling Feng chuckled, "Now do you understand?"
The masked woman still seemed a bit puzzled, but Daphneās eyes lit up, "Yes, any powerful monster beast is bound to have its own forbidden area, where other creatures dare not approach!"
"So what?" The masked woman still didnāt understand.
Daphne explained, "Since it has a territory of its own, we can use that to find it. For instance... by creating a beast tide. If the tide avoids certain areas, those are likely where the monster beast resides!"
Only then did the masked woman understand, and she couldnāt help but ask, "Is that really possible?"
"Why not!" Daphne confidently replied, "With the strength of the three of us, creating a beast tide is not too difficult."
Ling Feng nodded slightly. Daphne hadnāt been idle in these years! The little girl, who used to cry when frightened by an assassin, was slowly becoming an experienced leader.
Daphne glanced at Ling Feng. Although she had thought of this plan, without Ling Fengās guidance, she wouldnāt have come up with it so quickly!
"Alright, now that we have a direction, letās proceed to the next step!" Ling Feng said calmly, "The three of us will split in three directions and drive the monster beasts toward the center of the forest. If anyone encounters something they canāt handle... itās better to retreat early!"
If they couldnāt handle even the peripheral monster beasts, then they certainly wouldnāt be able to deal with the monster beast guarding the Seven-Star Leaf Fruit!
Daphne and the masked woman nodded, and then after some simple instructions from Ling Feng, they parted ways.
"Tsk tsk tsk, that blonde, blue-eyed lass doesnāt seem bad either!" Outside, Xuanyuan Xia remarked, "Her mindās quite agile, not like an uncarvable block of wood!"
The Sword Spirit chuckled, "I never expected the normally haughty Princess Xia to praise someone?"
Xuanyuan Xia rolled her eyes and said, "Iām just expressing some care for the juniors... As for my peers, who can match up to me?"
"Still as haughty as ever!" The Sword Spirit shook its head, "However, I feel Ling Feng seems to care a bit too much for that masked woman. Could he be a philanderer?"
Xuanyuan Xiaās mouth twitched. In a country observing monogamy, shamelessly hitting on many respectable young women and saying heās not a philanderer was something she couldnāt voice out!
"A true man, whatās wrong with having more women!" Xuanyuan Xia said insincerely, "I have several aunts myself!"
Inside the Small World, Ling Feng and the others naturally didnāt know there were people outside discussing them!
The trajectories of the three formed a fan shape, gathering the monster beasts and wild animals within dozens of kilometers, driving them towards the forestās depths.
The outer monster beasts werenāt very strong, the strongest only mid-stage Demigod Domain level, which in Ling Fengās hands, were as helpless as little rabbits.
After an hour, through the combined efforts of the three, a panicked beast tide gradually formed, surging towards the depths of the forest.
Rumble! The beast tide rolled like a snowball, the group growing larger, scaring more and more types of monster beasts. Many monster beasts, not knowing what was happening, ran towards the forestās depths, following the massive tide.
"What a spectacle!" Ling Feng stood atop a tree, looking at the chaotic paths formed by the crash into the forest, unable to refrain from exclaiming, "In such a scene, I want to recite a poem!"
"Ah, forest, so many trees! Ah, beast herd, so many legs!" Behind Ling Feng, came the voice of the masked woman!
Cough cough cough! Ling Feng began coughing violently, almost floored by the poetic feelings of the masked woman!
"You... who are you!" Ling Feng asked somewhat exasperatedly. This masked woman felt more and more familiar to him.
"You still havenāt guessed my identity? Then give it a good guess!" The masked woman, not hiding anymore, said with a hint of teasing, "I donāt believe youāll guess who I am."
