Chapter 1107: Chapter 355: Invading the Shen Country Star Domain

In the minds of many people, such treasures as the World Seed, if they can’t obtain it themselves, they’d rather destroy it.

“It sounds reasonable, but I just feel something is not right.”

Ling Feng shook his head.

“Why?”

Di Yaozong asked.

“My soul power has already undergone its fifth transformation. If Madam Huang had any connection with the Centaur Race, I would have definitely sensed unusual fluctuations in her body when my soul power penetrated it.”

Ling Feng said.

Although Madam Huang has the protection of Qi Fortune True Essence, that Qi Fortune True Essence, unrelated to the bloodline of the Centaur Race, is a power that Madam Huang painstakingly cultivated over time.

Having disrupted the balance of Ma Fei’s bloodline power and felt the other’s power and aura fluctuations, Ling Feng doesn’t think Madam Huang is related to the Centaur Race or involved with the Otherworld.

“If the Centaur Race is not behind it, then it must be the Shen Family. But what could the Shen Family possibly have that would make Madam Huang risk her life, even at the threat of being hunted by the Ancient Moon Sect, just to kill you?”

Di Yaozong frowned.

“Master.”

“Senior Sister Huang’s actions are driven by two possibilities: either killing Ling Feng brings greater benefits than the risks, or she is under someone’s orders, receiving substantial rewards and protection afterwards.”

Tian Mingyue said.

“The Shadow Alliance!”

Ling Feng and Di Yaozong pondered for a moment, then said in unison.

Tian Mingyue’s question is very easy to answer.

In the entire Intermediate Star Domain, the only forces that can contend with the Ancient Moon Sect besides the Alliance are the Shadow Alliance. The Alliance has been trying all means to infiltrate members into the Ancient Moon Sect; although not fully infiltrated, the Ancient Moon Sect is already part of the Alliance.

Given that Ling Feng is not just a disciple of the Ancient Moon Sect but also a member of the Alliance, the Alliance would not want Madam Huang to kill him. Madam Huang willingly cooperates and even benefits from the Alliance.

If there is any involvement, it must be on a personal level.

And an individual’s strength, even if it’s Di Yaozong or Steward Ma, cannot contend with the Ancient Moon Sect, so the answer easily points to the Shadow Alliance.

“The Shen Family worked through the Shadow Alliance, issuing a task or dispatching strong individuals to the Ancient Moon Sect to kill me.”

“Madam Huang is a member of the Shadow Alliance.”

“What exactly did the Shen Family offer the Shadow Alliance in spirit stones?”

The three of them suddenly understood.

“Ordinary spirit stones wouldn’t be enough for the Shadow Alliance to sacrifice Madam Huang just to kill you.”

Di Yaozong shook his head.

“World Seed.”

Tian Mingyue said.

“Impossible.”

Ling Feng immediately shook his head.

Di Yaozong also shook his head, but after a moment of reflection, thought it might not be entirely out of the question, and said: “Shen Rufeng failed his tribulation, yet you emerged unscathed from his calamity and consequently became a Tribulation Crossing Immortal. Perhaps your existence has driven the Shen Family to desperation, forcing them to take risks?”

“What do you mean, Mister Di?”

Ling Feng asked curiously.

“This is just my speculation. If I’m not mistaken, Shen Junsong knows that the Shen Family can no longer guard the World Seed. Even after Shen Rufeng’s death, the Alliance, the Ancient Moon Sect, the Shadow Alliance, and even major corporate families are in negotiations with the Shen Family, offering generous terms to relinquish the World Seed.

If they handed the World Seed to the Shadow Alliance, killing you would be just one condition, and that would resolve all issues.”

Di Yaozong explained.

As a Mahayana Infinite powerhouse, even before gaining insight from Ling Feng and understanding the True Meaning of Life, he had been eyeing the World Seed held by the Shen Family.

A World Seed is enough to make the Shadow Alliance or any major power perform various tasks for the Shen Family.

If the Shen Family handed the World Seed to the Shen Family, then having the Shadow Alliance assassinate Ling Feng, avenging Shen Qiao’an and Shen Rufeng, would be an incidental task, one that poses little challenge to the Shadow Alliance.

“How can we confirm if there’s a transaction between the Shadow Alliance and the Shen Family?”

Tian Mingyue asked.

“It’s simple: if the Shen Family really handed the World Seed to the Shadow Alliance, they would surely receive the Shadow Alliance’s protection. If anyone attacks the Shen Family and external forces intervene, no matter if they’re from the Shadow Alliance or not, it would confirm that the Shen Family has indeed handed over the World Seed.”

Ling Feng explained.

“Junior Brother is right.”

Tian Mingyue nodded, then looked at Di Yaozong alongside Ling Feng.

“The analysis makes sense.”

Di Yaozong nodded as well.

Ling Feng and Tian Mingyue remained silent, continuing to watch Di Yaozong.

“You two cunning little fellows, very well, I’ll go have a try.”

Di Yaozong looked speechless.

To ascertain if the Shen Family is under the Shadow Alliance’s protection, ordinary Tribulation Crossing Immortals, even Ling Feng alone, wouldn’t suffice; only a powerhouse of his level could determine the result.

“If the Shen Family did use the World Seed for an exchange with the Shadow Alliance, the Shadow Alliance will undoubtedly continue sending strong ones to kill you, and within the near future. At that time, the Ancient Moon Sect can also seize the opportunity to root out Shadow Alliance members hidden within the sect.

You continue to stay within the cave mansion.

I will leave a clone to protect you. Without my permission, do not leave here.”

Di Yaozong instructed.

“Alright.”

Ling Feng and Tian Mingyue watched as Di Yaozong’s true form disappeared from sight.

“Let’s play mahjong!”

Ling Feng said to Tian Mingyue.

“You still feel like playing mahjong at a time like this?”
