Chapter 152: Deep into the Demonic Territory
The bright moon is in the sky.
In the dark night, Lin Feng and Sheng Lingxin stood on the branches of a big tree, like two wooden sculptures, motionless.
Even if someone passed by, they probably wouldn't notice that there were two people standing on the tree.
Sheng Lingxin's lightness skill was very strong. When he appeared beside Lin Feng, the branches of the big tree did not move at all.
"Yes, it seems that Ying Suifeng has indeed put a lot of effort into you."
Sheng Lingxin continued to comment on Lin Feng: "Your understanding of assassins and anti-detection capabilities are among the best in the sixth level."
"Since when did you discover me?"
Sheng Lingxin expressed the doubts in his heart. After observing Lin Feng along the way, Lin Feng's performance was indeed beyond his expectations. He did not expect that Lin Feng's understanding of the assassin had reached this point.
It can even be said that in terms of skills, he is more sophisticated than some seventh-level assassins.
The reason why he followed Lin Feng all the way was to protect Lin Feng, but at the same time, he also wanted to see what kind of person was recognized by Cai'er.
He was relatively impressed by Lin Feng's character, as he was willing to risk his life to go out of the city to rescue Xiaying No. 1.
But in the same way, in his opinion, the sixth level coming out alone was also arrogant.
Why does he think that he, a level 6 person, can do something that level 8 and level 9 people can't do?
Of course, even if Lin Feng would not come out this time, he would go to the heartland of the demon clan alone to look for the traces of Xiaying No. 1 and others, and complete the tasks that the previous investigation team had not completed.
After hearing Sheng Lingxin's question, Lin Feng did not hide anything and said directly: "When I was leaving the city, I noticed someone was following me."
"What I didn't expect was that the person following me would be the chief of the Exorcist Gate."
Facing Lin Feng's teasing, just when Sheng Lingxin wanted to say something, Lin Feng exerted a little force with his legs and rushed out.
At the same time, he sent a voice message: "I advise the commander to go back. I am worried that you will hinder me next time."
Hearing Lin Feng's words, Sheng Lingxin's mouth twitched involuntarily.
But he still caught up with Lin Feng, and said in an unhappy tone: "I am also at the peak of the seventh level. Why do you think I will hold you back?"
"Besides, I am Cai'er's father after all. Don't you think you should be more respectful when talking to me?"
Lin Feng replied calmly: "Before Cai'er acknowledges you, don't even think about taking advantage of me."
"Also, I'm here to save people, not to chat with you."
After saying this, Lin Feng's speed increased again.
At this time, Sheng Lingxin, who had been following Lin Feng, quickened his pace to catch up with Lin Feng and asked.
"From the moment we left the city, I realized that you had a clear purpose. From what you said, Shadow Knight No. 1 is still alive?"
"Don't worry about this. I have my own way."
Seeing that Lin Feng was unwilling to say, Sheng Lingxin did not ask any more questions. It would be best if Xiaying No. 1 was still alive.
Although he was very unhappy with Lin Feng's attitude, you have to know that in the Exorcism Pass, everyone would be respectful to him.
Lin Feng, on the other hand, knew that he was still Cai'er's father, but he didn't show any attitude as a junior. He even brought Cai'er to draw a clear line between him and Lin Feng as soon as they met.
But he still couldn't do anything to Lin Feng.
This made him feel somewhat aggrieved.
As for what Sheng Lingxin was thinking, Lin Feng did not explain too much along the way. The more he explained, the more unclear it became.
……
The two men ran all the way, and soon, a flame shot up into the sky from a plain in the distance, attracting their attention.
"Go and have a look." The voice of Sheng Lingxin appeared in Lin Feng's mind. Lin Feng did not say much, and the two of them directly touched a higher area, just enough to take in the scenery in the distance.
I saw densely packed demons gathering together. A rough estimate showed that there were at least 20,000 demons.
"We are quite lucky this time. This should be the vanguard of the demon clan. I took a rough look and there is only one demon commander in charge. If I am not mistaken, they are probably going to attack the Exorcist Pass at night."
"It just so happens that if the demons attack the Exorcist Pass at this time, the security of the demons' rear should not be so strict, and the task of rescuing Xiaying No. 1 will be easier."
At the same time that Sheng Lingxin told Lin Feng the news, he took out a carrier pigeon from somewhere and recorded the news that the demons were going to attack at night.
Hearing the creature's words, Lin Feng couldn't help but sigh. How could it be so simple?
The place where Shadow Warrior No. 1 is imprisoned is guarded by a demon, so one can imagine how dangerous it will be for the two of them to go there this time.
After Sheng Lingxin released the carrier pigeon, the two continued on their journey.
With the existing military force at Exorcist Pass and the terrain that is easy to defend but difficult to attack, the attack of 20,000 demons poses almost no threat.
Such attacks have occurred almost every day since the beginning of autumn.
……
at the same time.
The heartland of the demon clan is located in a mountain range.
A mountain was blown into a depression, and even several kilometers away, there were traces of the battle left behind.
The originally green mountains were also burned to ashes by the flames. From time to time, you can still see the burning flames, and boiling magma can be seen everywhere.
Even though it is night now, the illumination from the lava all over the mountains makes it look like a sea of fire and hell, which is shocking.
In the center of the depression, dozens of people dressed in Assassin's Templar uniforms were pierced through the hands and feet by red flames and were trapped in the air.
If you can observe them closely, you will see that these people are already silent, with hideous and distorted faces...
What is already dead cannot die again.
Just from his face, you can tell that he must have suffered torture before he was born that ordinary people cannot endure.
The only thing to be thankful for is that among these dozens of people, there was still a person who was barely breathing and looked haggard and still had a glimmer of hope.
He just opened his eyes.
A hot girl in a red dress with a devilish figure jumped up and stopped in front of the middle-aged man.
These two people are Xiaying No. 1 and Leng Xiao.
Looking at Shadow Warrior No. 1, whose hands and feet were pierced and fixed, he even had difficulty breathing.
Leng Xiao frowned.
Given his current condition, he might not even be able to see the sun this morning.
Leng Xiao took out a kettle from the space ring and fed some water to Xiaying No. 1.
Just at this moment, a cicada burning with blue flames flew to Leng Xiao's side and turned into a human form.
"Your Highness, I think you've had enough fun. While it's still alive, come and raise the cicada for me. This is the flesh and blood of a ninth-level human. If my little baby devours it, I promise to catch you a better toy." Xier, the Green Demon Rider, one of the three demon gods, looked at Leng Xiao with a flattering look on his face.
