After Chen Ying returned to Feihu Trail, she didn't go out again.
He reacted very calmly to the information from the outside.
Even though it was reported that the eldest prince's exploration in the White Bear Tribe failed, that he was surrounded and killed by many strong men outside the Great Wall and some strong men from the hinterland of the empire, and that he fled back to the North in panic with heavy losses, it did not attract much attention from him.
Just ask the soldiers stationed in the walled city outside the wall to pay attention to what is going on outside the wall.
Neither the officials of the lord's palace nor the ordinary people were affected at all. What happened in the past remains the same now.
However, the news coming from the Northland was not good. After the eldest prince fled back to the Northland in embarrassment, he asked the Northland border troops to cooperate with him in killing him and regaining his place.
From the Duke of Zhenbei, Jackie Chan, down to the border army generals, the reactions were all indifferent, and they just dismissed his words as nonsense and refused to comment.
The eldest prince was naturally very unhappy. He took tens of thousands of troops under his command and stationed himself at the important border town. Apparently, he was at the mercy of the local snakes in the North.
It was at this time that Ling Feng suddenly came to the Flying Fox Territory and appeared in front of Chen Ying.
"Why, could it be that you received some kind of mission?"
Seeing Ling Feng, Chen Ying was very enthusiastic. After serving tea and water, she asked directly: "Isn't it the eldest prince who has any request?"
"It has nothing to do with the eldest prince!"
Ling Feng smiled bitterly and said: "I couldn't stand the atmosphere there, so I found an opportunity to come here to hide and relax!"
"There is really no need to stay in the frontier town. At least there won't be any movement in a short time!"
Chen Ying chuckled and asked curiously: "I heard that in the White Bear tribe, the masters around the eldest prince suffered heavy losses?"
"It's really miserable!"
Speaking of finding one, Ling Feng's expression changed and he said solemnly: "No one expected that there are so many masters outside the Great Wall!"
Seeing Chen Ying's confusion, he said directly: "This time, almost twenty grandmasters were dispatched in one go, including three powerful grandmasters!"
Chen Ying was stunned when he heard this, nodded and said: "This is indeed a big deal!"
"I can only say that fortunately, some masters from the Jianghu sect in the hinterland of the empire came to help share the pressure of the three great masters, otherwise it would have been really difficult this time!"
Apparently thinking of the danger, Ling Feng, who had always been optimistic and cheerful, couldn't help but change his color, looking like he was still frightened.
"I don't believe that the eldest prince doesn't have a powerful grandmaster with him!"
Chen Yingke had no experience of being frightened and said directly: "At least, there is no problem in protecting the safety of the eldest prince!"
"Stop talking, that guy is really unlucky!"
Ling Feng smiled bitterly and said: "The site of the Ice Sword Sect is actually a secret realm with special formation protection. As a result, the only Grand Master beside the eldest prince accidentally fell into it and never came out again!"
This isn't miserable, it's more accurate to call it unlucky.
"The eldest prince may have been a little too eager. He actually took pictures of all the great masters around him. Aren't you afraid of accidents?"
Chen Ying curled his lips and said disdainfully: "Or does the eldest prince think that because he is a royal nobleman, others will not dare to touch him?"
Ling Feng smiled and said nothing, obviously agreeing with Chen Ying's words...
Are you kidding? I really thought this was the imperial capital where the royal family had great influence, and it was on the territory of a family outside the Great Wall.
That is to say, the tribes outside the Great Wall adjacent to the Great Qi Empire are average in strength. If they were outside the Great Wall of Zhao and Yan, how could the eldest prince have such confidence?
"Stop talking about this, your boy's strength has improved a bit slowly!"
Waving her hand, Chen Ying glanced at Ling Feng, frowned and said, "Honestly, are you slacking off in your cultivation?"
Ling Feng's current cultivation level has reached the peak of a master.
It does look good, but don't forget that this guy is the son of luck in the North, so his progress is a bit slow.
If he were to go at the normal speed, he would be at least a powerful person at the Grand Master level at this time.
And although this guy's luck has not been usurped again, for some reason Chen Ying always feels that something is wrong.
From the perspective of luck, this guy made him feel a little sad...
It's a pity that he didn't practice the special technique of looking at qi, otherwise he would definitely be able to see more tricks.
Chen Ying always had a strange feeling that someone was spying on Ling Feng's luck.
“I definitely didn’t slack off and even worked harder than before!”
Ling Feng said unhappily: "As for why the cultivation progress has slowed down, I don't know very well. It's really a headache!"
A grandmaster's peak cultivation level, if compared to others, would make him full of confidence, not to mention complacent, but for Ling Feng, it is indeed not enough.
Not to mention the powerful people in the imperial capital, the number of powerful Grand Masters on the surface alone exceeds twenty. I really thought that the Da Qi Empire was a vegetarian.
What irritated him the most was his former younger brother Xiong Dazhuang, who had now become a powerful Grand Master, which definitely stimulated him a lot.
"Do you still have the jade pendant I gave you before?"
Chen Ying did not answer, but changed the subject and asked: "If you have it with you, let me see..."
"I always carry it with me!"
Ling Feng was a little confused, but he honestly took out the jade pendant hanging around his neck and complained: "It's just that the quality of this jade pendant is no longer good. It's only been a long time since I've been wearing it, and it's already cracked!"
"Oh, there are cracks!"
Chen Ying's eyes flashed, and the jade pendant handed over by Ling Feng turned out to be exactly the same after careful inspection. There were already several obvious cracks on the surface.
Moreover, the originally crystal clear surface of the jade pendant has become a little dull, like pearls that have been stored for a long time.
It's true, Ling Feng is being plotted against, and someone wants to steal his luck.
He glanced at Ling Feng, who looked calm, and didn't intend to tell him about this, lest this guy become suspicious and have a difficult life in the future.
You must know that the jade pendant presented by Chen Ying, regardless of the material, is engraved with runes that suppress luck. It can be regarded as a relatively single-function talisman.
With his cultivation in the way of talismans, even if it is just a talisman with a single function, not just any existence can deal with it.
Unless, the other party uses something like an inherited magic weapon.
Looking at the current appearance of the jade pendant, it has obviously been attacked more than once.
There were actually several obvious cracks. It was obvious that the opponent's methods were quite powerful.
Fortunately, they were all stopped by the jade pendant, otherwise Ling Feng's luck would have been snatched away at this moment.
When that time comes, it will not be easy to imagine the smooth sailing as in the past without saying such big words that the future will be ruined.
I just don’t know, which immoral thing came up with this method?
Stealing people's luck is worse than killing their parents. If not, it may even affect the fate of the next life. It is simply crazy.
Isn't the other party afraid of the backlash of luck?
Ling Feng is the son of the Northland's luck. Even if he wants to take advantage of his luck, he has to come to the Northland to develop in the end to get the benefits.
An idea flashed in my mind, could it be...
"Isn't it just a piece of jade pendant that is almost useless? What's so good about it?"
Ling Feng's impatient voice woke Chen Ying out of her thoughts.
“You guy, it’s as if I’m really that stingy!”
He put away the jade pendant that had obvious cracks, took out a new jade pendant from the study room and handed it to Ling Feng, reminding him: "Continue to carry it close to you, don't throw it away casually, it will be good for you!"
Ling Feng looked a little surprised. He glanced at the jade pendant with obvious cracks, then looked at the new jade pendant, and accepted it without saying anything.
Chen Ying smiled and asked: "How long is the employment period agreed between you and the eldest prince?"
"Less than a year!"
"Find an opportunity and just push it when the time comes. There's not much use in following him!"
"How to say?"
"Unless the eldest prince can complete this mission, he will inevitably be left out in the cold for a while after he returns!"
Chen Ying smiled and said: "The internal affairs of the royal family have little to do with outsiders like us. You can just say goodbye and leave then!"
"After I come back, will my strength improve by leaps and bounds?"
Ling Feng smiled and asked, "Isn't this impossible?"
"Yes, of course I can!"
Chen Ying said with a smile: "After all, this is a place you are familiar with and a place where you have struggled. At least you don't have to be as cautious as you are in the imperial capital. You can let go and compete with the strong people outside the wall and your own brothers!"
"I'm afraid I won't have such convenience next to the eldest prince!"
Ling Feng smiled bitterly and said: "Indeed, I have been busy with the eldest prince all day long, and I can't even practice on time. Maybe this is the main reason why my cultivation level is not improving quickly?"
"Come back then!"
Chen Ying solemnly invited: "There is a serious lack of top experts here on Feihu Trail!"
Speaking of this, he chuckled and said: "I can't do anything that requires me to personally come forward. Xiong Dazhuang and the others still lack a little knowledge!"
"I understand what you mean, let me think about it carefully!"
Ling Feng did not answer in a hurry. The so-called good horse never turns back and returning to the Flying Fox Trail was something that he needed to think carefully about.
For the arrogant Ling Feng, he couldn't bear what others said that he couldn't survive outside and had to come back in despair.
Of course, the most important thing is that he is not sure whether his strength can continue to grow rapidly after returning. He is curious about Chen Ying's strength but also has some doubts.
Chen Ying was not in a hurry, and after some gossip, Ling Feng took the initiative to say goodbye and leave, without asking him to stay.
Although I don’t really trust some of the specific situations mentioned by the reborn third runner-up, I still pay great attention to some of the general trends mentioned by the third runner-up.
If what he said is true, the main world will reach the level of Fengyun World in ten years, and by then all kinds of top masters will emerge in endlessly.
He doesn't really care about this. With his current strength, he can still be at the top level even in the Fengyun World. However, the lack of strength among his subordinates is also a problem.
He can't really become a tyrant or a lonely one. When he meets a top expert, he has to take action himself. He doesn't want Feihu Trail to develop like this in the future...
