Chapter 1630: Chapter 1628: Dragon Lady Missing
Ling Feng furrowed his brows, "Great General, didnāt you see the messenger I sent back?"
Ling Feng had felt something strange from the start. Logically speaking, if the Great General knew that the Princess was captured and imprisoned in Dark Night City, he would never just sit by. However, on the way back, Ling Feng didnāt notice any actions from the Great General.
Situ Xing was stunned for a moment, "A messenger sent back? We havenāt seen anyone, Ling Feng, who did you send?"
Ling Fengās heart skipped a beat. If Situ Xing wasnāt lying, did the Dragon Spirit fail to reach here and meet with misfortune along the way?
Thinking of this, an unpleasant expression appeared on Ling Fengās face.
"What on earth happened?" the Great General asked, noticing something was wrong with Ling Fengās expression.
Ling Feng said solemnly, "When I saw the Princess being captured, I asked a friend to deliver the message, but it seems she never arrived, probably met with some misfortune on the way!"
Ling Feng clenched his fist tightly, his eyes full of concern.
Although he was very worried about the safety of the Dragon Spirit, Ling Feng knew that the more pressing matter now was to discuss with the Great General how to strategically control the Black Dragon Clan.
The Great General already knew Ling Fengās true identity and the agreement between the Demon King and Ling Feng, so there was no big reaction to Ling Fengās proposal.
But Princess Yunxuan was different. It was the first time she learned of Ling Fengās identity. He was actually the Dragon God Successor? This somewhat overturned her understanding of Ling Feng.
After hearing Ling Fengās words, the Great General thought for a moment and said, "Your plan is very tempting and feasible, but as you said, youāve controlled the Black Dragon Clan and subdued different races, but what would the Abyssal Court get out of this?"
Ling Feng chuckled lightly, "Great General, I think the Abyssal Court needs a stable Abyssal Demon Abyss more than one thatās perpetually in chaos, right?"
The Great General shook his head and said, "Thatās different. Although youāre the Imperial Son-in-law, we need to be clear; we need control over the Abyssal Demon Abyss!"
Ling Feng squinted his eyes, "Great General, do you want me to make a wedding dress for the Abyssal Court?"
"Why not?" the Great General said with a smile, "Youāre the Imperial Son-in-law, someday the Abyssal Courtās Demon King might be you. Why not serve the Abyssal Court wholeheartedly?"
Ling Feng shook his head. This Great General truly dared to ask for too much, "I can give you control of the Abyssal Demon Abyss, but I need to take away all the power of the different races!"
The Great General stared at Ling Feng. Ling Fengās gaze was firm, without the slightest hesitation or concession.
"Alright, happy cooperation!" The Great General suddenly smiled, reaching out to pat Ling Feng on the shoulder.
...
Ling Feng left, but what he didnāt know was that behind him was an unwilling gaze.
"Whatās wrong? Canāt bear to see him go?" The Great General walked over to Princess Yunxuanās side and said with a chuckle, "Are you falling for Ling Feng this time?"
"Of course not!" Princess Yunxuan snorted, "He saved me, and I saved him before too. Weāre even... But, Uncle Situ, why does he have to go back, itās far too dangerous."
"Because he is a true man; he has his own persistence and responsibility!" Situ Xing said with a sigh, "Yunxuan, Ling Feng is really good, you should really consider it."
"Ah, I got it!" Princess Yunxuan said, "Iām going back to rest!"
With that, Princess Yunxuan turned to leave, muttering to herself, "Hmph, I wonāt like such a wooden person, and besides... he actually has other girls around him, heās simply a flirt!"
And Ling Feng, who had already left, naturally didnāt know he was being secretly criticized by Princess Yunxuan.
When Ling Feng and Gui Hao returned to Dark Night City again, Ao Lie was already quietly waiting for Ling Fengās arrival.
"Sir, the news of Ye Tusuās death has already spread back to the Abyssal Demon Abyss!" Ao Lie said with a heavy expression, "Now the Black Dragon Clan is extremely enraged, and there might be more experts sent here. I think youād better meet with Ao Yun first, and then weāll act according to the plan!"
Ling Feng nodded, "Okay, Iāve already discussed with the Great General of the Abyssal Court, when the time is right, we exert pressure on the Abyssal Demon Abyss to facilitate our action!"
"Thatās great!" Ao Lie breathed a sigh of relief.
Half a day later, the experts of the Black Dragon Clan finally arrived. The Seventh Elder couldnāt help but take a deep breath when he saw the Black Dragon Clan Leader arriving personally. It seemed that Ye Tusuās death had truly enraged the Black Dragon Clan Leader.
"Ao Lie, whatās this all about? How did my Ye Tusu die?" the Black Dragon Clan Leader roared with a sullen face as he entered Dark Night City.
The Seventh Elder hurriedly knelt on the ground with a pained expression, "Clan Leader, sorry, I didnāt protect the Young Master well; itās all my fault!"
The Black Dragon Clan Leader took a deep breath, "Now what I need is to know what happened, not for you to plead guilty here!"
The Seventh Elder nodded with a trace of pain, "Clan Leader, actually... that old turtleās power hasnāt weakened; on the contrary, heās even stronger than before!"
"Howās that possible!" The Black Dragon Clan Leader couldnāt help but say, "Heās been suppressed by the Necromantic Array for so many years, how could he not only avoid weakening but grow stronger?"
The Seventh Elder nodded, "Itās true, because he refined the Waters of the Yellow Springs, and with Ling Fengās help, he escaped from the Necromantic Array!"
The Black Dragon Clan Leader felt a chill throughout his body, muttering to himself, "No wonder, no wonder the Necromantic Array had no reaction; so heās already escaped?"
"Was it that old turtle who killed Tusu?" the Second Elder beside the Black Dragon Clan Leader asked.
šš£ššš°ššš§š¼ššš.š°šØš¦
"No!" The Seventh Elder shook his head.
"Old Seven, just say it, stop beating around the bush, whatās this all about?" the Second Elder said impatiently.
Ao Lie said solemnly, "After the old turtle escaped, we pursued him. We thought at least we could capture Ling Feng, but on the way, we encountered someone; it was this person who killed the Young Master!"
"Who!" the Black Dragon Clan Leader roared.
"The Great General of the Abyssal Court, Situ Xing!"
Upon hearing this, everyone couldnāt help but gasp. In the Abyssal Demon Abyss, the most notorious name was undoubtedly the Great General Situ Xing!
Back then, Situ Xing single-handedly charged into the Abyssal Demon Abyss, sparring with countless experts before leaving effortlessly, which had become a disgrace to the Black Dragon Clan.
"How could you possibly encounter Situ Xing on the way? He is the Great General of the Abyssal Court; how could he appear alone near Dark Night City?" the Black Dragon Clan Leader asked with some exasperation.
