Chapter 458 Strange Feeling
Zhou Yi was taken aback and mustered a hint of a smile, "Please, will you tell me? It’s very important to me!"
"Is that so? It seems we have more to talk about. Are you still in a hurry to leave?" Ling Feng asked.
"I..."
Zhou Yi hesitated for a moment but then turned back and sat down on the sofa, looking obedient.
If Ling Feng hadn’t just seen her baring her teeth and brandishing her claws, he might have easily been fooled into thinking she was a shy, well-bred young lady.
"I really suspect you’re trained in acting; such quick role changes!"
After a wry smile, Ling Feng sat opposite Zhou Yi.
The God Slayer Saber was not for her to touch, what if this girl disappeared with it? Where would he go looking for it?
So, tucking the saber carefully into the scabbard at his waist, Ling Feng looked up and asked, "Tell me, how do you know about the God Slayer Saber?"
"I read about it in an ancient tome. This saber, claiming to be God Slayer, is not an undeserved name. It truly possesses the power to destroy heavens and earth!" Zhou Yi said earnestly.
"Really? For real?"
Ling Feng was startled, feeling it was a bit far-fetched. This saber in his hands was just a bit sharper than others, what special power could it have?
"Of course it’s true. Why would I lie to you? You simply can’t trigger the energy it contains right now, so it hasn’t shown its true strength yet!" Zhou Yi rolled her eyes as she spoke.
"Oh, so it’s really a treasure. What kind of ancient tome is that, which even records such matters?" Ling Feng felt delighted then asked.
"That’s something I can’t discuss with you in detail. It’s a pity. I thought it was still buried somewhere, but it unexpectedly already has an owner," Zhou Yi sighed.
A thought struck Ling Feng, recalling his own treasure hunting in the mountains, he couldn’t help but ask, "You’re not a treasure hunter by any chance, are you?"
"That’s right!"
This time, Zhou Yi didn’t hide it and nodded succinctly, "Don’t think Chu Lao is the only one who can find treasures. I can too, and I know more than him!"
"So, that’s how it is!"
Ling Feng understood and chuckled, "Consider yourself formidable, but sadly, the treasures are all mine now!"
"You..."
Zhou Yi’s proud smile still on her face, hearing what he said, she was instantly choked with anger!
However, she soon let out a sigh, "Alright, you’re formidable. I’m no match for you, and it’s only right that I couldn’t outdo you!"
"Yo, it’s rare for you to admit defeat," Ling Feng asked.
Zhou Yi gave him a look, "Of course I’m not convinced, but if I can’t outdo you, I just have to acknowledge it!"
After saying this, she looked into Ling Feng’s eyes, "There are many more treasures out there. Once I find them, I will definitely become stronger than you!!"
"And then what? You’ll come back to kill me and take my things?" Ling Feng narrowed his eyes.
Zhou Yi was startled for a moment, "I didn’t say that. What’s with that look? You want to kill me?"
"Rather than waiting for you to become stronger and come back to kill me, I might as well eliminate the threat now!" Ling Feng said with a cold laugh.
Seeing him gripping the saber hilt, really looking like he was about to take action, Zhou Yi wore an innocent face, "Come on, I haven’t done anything to cause you any real harm, do you hate me that much?"
"You might not have, but that Zhang Song, along with that father and son, they have all done things that are despicable!" Ling Feng said flatly.
Only then did Zhou Yi understand and her face showed sudden realization, "So that’s how it is!"
Then she suddenly smiled, "Then you misunderstood. Although we are from the same organization, we are from different factions. I also dislike their unscrupulous ways."
"Oh?"
Ling Feng didn’t believe her, thinking she was just bluffing him.
"I only want the item, I won’t hurt anyone, believe it or not!"
Zhou Yi, looking like someone taking a bet, stood up to leave, but then, as if she remembered something, she turned back and asked, "Can you tell me where you found the God Slayer Saber?"
"Sorry, of course not, because there are still a few treasures I haven’t retrieved yet!" Ling Feng shook his head.
"Alright then."
A trace of disappointment flashed across Zhou Yi’s face, and she turned and left.
This time Ling Feng didn’t stop her, only asking one more question, "Don’t forget about Huaihua’s matter!"
"Don’t worry, I truly like Yun Yun, I won’t do anything to her!" Zhou Yi said, then pushed the door open and left.
Ling Feng watched her leave with wide eyes, only sighing after a while of being dazed, "This woman, she’s really something special!"
From the very beginning until now, none of the girls he met were as special as Zhou Yi.
Ling Feng couldn’t even clarify what he felt for her in his heart; it seemed like a mix of various impressions all tangled together, altogether very complex!
After zoning out for a while, he noticed that the time was approaching evening, so he quickly got up, went downstairs, and drove straight to the clubhouse where Miao Ruoruo was staying.
Having waited in the car for about half an hour, Ling Feng saw Miao Ruoruo come out laughing and talking with her classmates.
Zhou Yi was also among them, displaying affection like she had never left.
Miao Ruoruo had already seen Ling Feng’s car, so she said goodbye to everyone and walked towards him with a smile.
Apart from Zhou Yi, the other girls were surprised to see the military vehicle Ling Feng was driving, and they whispered to each other, speculating about his identity.
Zhou Yi, however, was expressionless, her face calm, watching Miao Ruoruo get into the car.
Ling Feng didn’t look at her; he started the car and left, returning to the hotel.
On the way back, he finally asked Miao Ruoruo, "How did Zhou Yi explain her sudden departure to you guys?"
"She said she was going to make a phone call. We thought she was just finding an excuse to leave, but then she came back," Miao Ruoruo replied.
"Oh," Ling Feng responded and smiled, asking, "So, did you find out anything from her?"
"No, we didn’t even have time to talk much..." Miao Ruoruo said with a touch of disappointment.
"Don’t blame yourself, I already know what I wanted to," Ling Feng said with a laugh.
Upon returning to the hotel room and learning from him about what had happened, Miao Ruoruo’s face showed surprise, "I can’t believe our senior has such an identity. I thought she was just a typical rich second-generation!"
"Her background is very deep, and she hides it well. But according to my feeling, she doesn’t seem to be a bad person. We should be able to trust her," Ling Feng said with a smile.
"Is that so?"
Miao Ruoruo looked up at him, teasing, "You aren’t falling for her, are you?"
"How could I? With you here, when would I have time to think about other girls?"
Ling Feng chuckled, wrapped his arm around her shoulder, and leaned in to whisper in Miao Ruoruo’s ear, "You’ve just soaked in the hot spring, so your skin must be really smooth, right?"
"You..."
Miao Ruoruo’s whole body went limp as his breath tickled her ear, and she could barely speak properly; she could only glance at him with a reproachful look.
That glance only teased Ling Feng further, and he couldn’t resist any longer. He scooped up the delicate beauty in his arms and headed straight for the bedroom!
