Chapter 123 The Truth Emerges: A Hope in Sight
Chu Feng's heart was pounding, and the content of the information was like a bolt of lightning that struck his brain: the source of the evil spirit was not naturally formed, but man-made!
He clenched the metal piece in his hand fiercely, and the complex pattern on it seemed to be imprinted in his mind.
The value of intelligence is immeasurable and is enough to change the fate of the entire "Slaying God" world.
But at this moment, Lin Xiao's voice sounded behind him like a ghost.
Chu Feng's whole body stiffened, and a chill ran from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
He slowly turned his head and met Lin Xiao's deep and unfathomable eyes.
"You..." Lin Xiao opened her red lips slightly, her tone meaningful.
Chu Feng only felt a surge of anger burning in his chest.
He knew that he had been tricked by this woman again.
Since their first encounter, Lin Xiao has been hovering around him, sometimes helping him, sometimes hindering him, and his purpose has always been confusing.
And now, she has finally bared her fangs.
"I've been waiting for this moment for a long time." Lin Xiao stepped forward and stretched out her slender hand. "Give me the information."
The atmosphere in the warehouse became more tense.
The leader of the dark forces, Sun, exchanged a glance with the man in black behind him, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Although Shadow Assassin Zhou was restrained by Chu Feng, there was a fierce light flashing in his eyes, as if he was ready to attack and hurt people at any time.
Auctioneer Zhao watched coldly from the side, with an expression of anticipation on his face.
Pan Yue looked at Chu Feng with concern. He knew that Chu Feng was in a very dangerous situation. Lin Xiao's strength was unfathomable, and the enemies around him were also eyeing him covetously.
Rich businessman Chen was so frightened that he trembled and hid in a corner, not daring to say a word. He was just an ordinary businessman, and his involvement in this dispute was completely accidental.
"Lin Xiao, what do you want to do?" Chu Feng suppressed the anger in his heart and asked coldly.
Lin Xiao chuckled. "What for? To take back what belongs to me, of course." She extended her hand and moved closer. "Don't force me to do it."
Chu Feng's eyes swept over the enemies around him, and he quickly thought of a countermeasure in his mind.
He knew that there was absolutely no chance of winning if he went head-on.
He must find a breakthrough to escape this predicament.
His hand quietly reached for the dagger at his waist, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes.
"Don't even think about it!"
Chu Feng's eyes suddenly became sharp. He no longer hesitated, shouted softly, and activated the golden finger!
The air around them seemed to freeze for a moment, and then the scene in the warehouse changed subtly.
A low wall suddenly appeared in the corner where the sundries were originally piled up, and an oil lamp that had been extinguished suddenly lit up, casting a swaying shadow.
These subtle changes made Lin Xiao slightly stunned. She was keenly aware of the abnormality in the surrounding environment, but before she could react, Chu Feng had already moved.
He jumped out like a cheetah, grabbed Pan Yue behind him, and the two of them quickly hid behind the low wall that appeared out of nowhere.
"What happened?" Pan Yue was still in shock. At that moment, he felt that the space around him was distorted.
"My ability," Chu Feng whispered, his eyes fixed on Lin Xiao, "can temporarily change the surrounding environment, but it won't last long."
Lin Xiao quickly recovered from her brief confusion. She smiled contemptuously and said, "A mere trifle." A faint blue light shone from her fingertips, and she muttered something.
The space around Chu Feng began to distort, and phantoms of Lin Xiao appeared out of thin air, surrounding her.
Each phantom was vivid, with cold eyes and a hint of sarcasm at the corners of its mouth.
Seeing this, Zhou Shadow Assassin's eyes flashed with excitement. He licked his lips and said grimly: "Miss Lin is really powerful. This kid is dead!" Sun, the leader of the dark forces, also showed a smug smile, as if he was sure of victory.
Auctioneer Zhao worked even harder to stir up the atmosphere: "Ladies and gentlemen, a wonderful show is about to begin. Who will win the treasure in the end? Let us wait and see!" Rich businessman Chen huddled in a corner, looking at everything in front of him, his face pale with fear, his whole body trembling.
Chu Feng looked at the phantoms around him with a frown.
It was difficult to tell whether these phantoms were real or fake, and he couldn't tell which one was the real Lin Xiao.
Each phantom carried a strong sense of oppression, making him feel suffocated.
Lin Xiao's voice came from all directions, like a devil's voice filling his ears: "Chu Feng, you can't escape."
Chu Feng gripped his dagger tightly, his gaze fixed on one of the phantoms. He asked coldly, "Really?" He suddenly rushed out...
Chu Feng looked at Lin Xiao with mixed feelings.
The woman who once made his heart beat was now standing opposite him, with cold and hostile eyes.
He knew that today's battle was inevitable.
"Do you really want to stop me, Lin Xiao?" Chu Feng's voice was low, with a hint of imperceptible pain.
Lin Xiao sneered: "Stop you? I just want to take back what belongs to me." The phantoms around him let out sharp screams, as if echoing Lin Xiao's words.
Shadow Assassin Zhou laughed arrogantly: "Boy, you're dead! Miss Lin took action, and you still want to survive?" Dark Force leader Sun also said sinisterly: "You overestimate your own abilities!"
His companion Pan Yue shouted worriedly, "Chu Feng, be careful!" He gripped his weapon tightly, ready to support Chu Feng at any time.
But Chu Feng was not shaken by these threats.
He stared at Lin Xiao with a sharp gaze.
Among the countless phantoms, he caught a slight flaw - the real Lin Xiao's breathing frequency was different from that of the phantom.
In a flash, Chu Feng moved.
He shot out like an arrow, the dagger in his hand cut through the air and pointed directly at Lin Xiao's real body.
Lin Xiao obviously did not expect Chu Feng to see through her illusion so quickly, and a hint of astonishment flashed in her eyes.
She wanted to dodge, but it was too late.
Chu Feng's dagger grazed Lin Xiao's arm, leaving a trail of blood.
At the same time, he snatched the information from Lin Xiao's hand and pushed her back.
Lin Xiao staggered a few steps, his face pale.
She didn't expect that Chu Feng's strength was so strong.
"You..." Lin Xiao covered his injured arm and looked at Chu Feng with complicated eyes.
Chu Feng ignored Lin Xiao. He stuffed the information into his arms, turned around, pulled Pan Yue up, and whispered, "Let's go!"
The two quickly rushed out of the warehouse and disappeared into the night.
Lin Xiao stood there, looking at the direction they left, his eyes flickering.
Auctioneer Zhao and Dark Force leader Sun's faces changed drastically when they saw this, and they immediately chased after him with their men.
Chu Feng and Pan Yue ran all the way and finally came to a hidden cave.
They leaned against the wall of the cave, panting, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Chu Feng took out the information and examined it carefully in the dim light of the fire.
The intelligence recorded a mysterious relic, which was said to be the entrance to the gate of the spirit world... Chu Feng put the intelligence away, stood up, and looked firmly into the depths of the cave, "Let's go, Pan Yue."
