Chapter 1295: Chapter 1294: Recruiting Zi Yue
Ling Fengâs face turned slightly red, and the Bright Saintess pinched him on the side: "Are you still looking?"
Ling Feng quickly turned around. He had been focused on healing just now, so he hadnât paid attention to Senior Zi Yueâs body. However, in the instant Senior Zi Yue opened her eyes, there was indeed an indescribable allure about her.
But Zi Yue didnât feel much about it. In her eyes, Ling Feng was just a kid, and she could also sense that Ling Feng didnât have any lewd aura around him.
When Ling Feng turned back again, Zi Yue had already dressed.
"Senior, how do you feel now?" Ling Feng asked. After all, this was the first time he fully utilized the Mechanical Coreâs information to create a body, and he wasnât quite sure about the results.
Zi Yue smiled and said, "I feel quite good now. Although thereâs still a bit of discomfort, I think it will pass in a while. Ling Feng, I really have to thank you this time!"
There was a gentle light in Zi Yueâs eyes. Although she had faced death calmly before, who would choose death if they could live?
Moreover, there was still an important wish in Zi Yueâs heart that hadnât been fulfilled. Ling Feng saving her naturally filled her heart with gratitude.
"Senior, youâre too kind!" Ling Feng said seriously. "Didnât you sacrifice yourself to protect us before? Being able to do something for Senior is my honor!"
Zi Yue laughed, "Alright, you donât need to call me Senior anymore. Iâm just a few years older than you. You can call me Aunt Ziyue!"
Ling Fengâs eyes twinkled, "That wonât do. Senior, youâre so young and beautiful. Calling you Aunt would make you seem old. Iâll just call you Sister Zi Yue. Is that okay, Sister Zi Yue?"
Zi Yue shook her head, "I didnât expect you to be so glib. Whatever, Iâll pretend to be young. You can call me Sister Zi Yue then."
"Alright!" Ling Feng chuckled, "Sister Zi Yue, what are your plans once your strength is restored?"
Zi Yue glanced at Ling Feng sideways and said, "Kid, if youâve got something to say, just say it!"
Ling Feng nodded, "Since Sister Zi Yue put it that way, I wonât hide it. I want to leverage Sister Zi Yueâs strength to take over Liu Wuyunâs Blood-roar Castle!"
Zi Yueâs expression slightly changed, "What are you planning to do?"
Ling Feng sighed, "Sister Zi Yue, to be honest, Afu and I have fled here. We only want a place to settle down. By replacing the Blood Howl City Master, we can establish ourselves here."
Saying this, Ling Feng glanced at Jilan before continuing, "Besides, Jilan wants to return to the Siteli Family, which is impossible without some power! Even finding the antidote for the God-Transforming Water requires many people!"
Zi Yue slowly nodded, "Youâre right. This Divine Cloud Continent is already a chaotic place, and if you want to establish a foothold, youâll have to accept Liu Wuyunâs forces. Whatâs your plan?"
Ling Feng smiled slightly, "Naturally, itâs adhere to me and prosper, oppose me and perish. Iâll need Sister Zi Yueâs help with all of this."
Zi Yue thought for a moment and said, "Alright then, give me three days. Once my Bloodline Seal is lifted and my strength is restored to the Sea of Gods Realm, weâll make our move."
Ling Feng smiled, a determined flash in his eyes. This was just the first step of his plan. He aimed to use it as a foundation to gradually conquer the entire Divine Cloud Continent.
Although this goal seemed somewhat unrealistic, Ling Feng had no way back.
Three days quickly passed. During this time, Jiete stumbled his way in, and Jilan also awakened. Upon learning Zi Yueâs identity, their shock was accompanied by delight.
After all, Zi Yue was a predecessor of the Siteli Family, and she saved them. They felt a natural closeness to Zi Yue.
After three days, Zi Yueâs strength was restored. Sensing the surging power within Zi Yue, Ling Feng felt invigorated: "Sister Zi Yue, letâs head out, and venture into the broader world!"
Meanwhile, during these three days, a sense of unease permeated Blood-roar Castle. Ever since the Blood Howl City Master entered Crying Ghost Valley three days ago, he hadnât appeared again.
The three remaining War Generals under the Blood Howl City Master gathered together.
Shenyan said in a deep voice: "Gentlemen, the City Master entered Crying Ghost Valley three days ago. We canât sit idly by; we should send someone to search for the City Master in the valley!"
A man with sinister eyes sneered: "Shenyan, is your brain made of rock? Sending people into Crying Ghost Valley? Do you think we have extra men to throw away in Blood-roar Castle?"
Shenyan was angered: "Demon Eye, stop speaking sarcastically here. Previously, the City Master never stayed in Crying Ghost Valley for more than a day, something must be wrong this time!"
Demon Eye sneered, "Everyone knows the City Master is a Sea of Gods Realm expert, one of the top strongmen on the entire Divine Cloud Continent. Who could threaten the City Master? Shenyan, are you cursing the City Master?"
Shenyan glared at Demon Eye and said, "Demon Eye, are you saying you donât care about the City Masterâs fate, or do you wish for something to happen to him?"
Demon Eye said plainly: "I never said that; donât force your thoughts on me! Iâm just saying your worries are unfounded or perhaps...youâre just trying to show loyalty?"
At this point, Demon Eye showed a contemptuous expression: "Didnât expect you to seem loyal but turn out to be so opportunistic. Truly, you canât judge a book by its cover!"
"Demon Eye, are you looking for death?" Shenyan sprang up: "Are you ready to fight three hundred rounds?"
Demon Eye also stood up, showing no fear: "Do you think Iâm afraid of you?"
"Enough!" At this point, a silent man, seeing the intensifying hostility between Shenyan and Demon Eye, couldnât help but shout in a low voice: "Youâre both close to the City Master, look at yourselves now! Is this appropriate? If you really want to fight, wait till the City Master returns and let him watch you fight! How about that?"
"Hmph!" Seeing even the third man speak, Shenyan and Demon Eye both huffed coldly and sat down.
The third man said lightly: "Shenyan, you said the City Master might be in danger. Do you know something?"
Shenyan hesitated and said, "Situ, Iâm not sure, but I feel something is off. This matter must be traced back to the murder of Ghost Hand!"
