Chapter 939 - 726: Return to Shangjing

As they watched the back of the last Abnormal Person disappear, Lin Feng and Yun Kai finally relaxed both physically and mentally.

Being besieged by nearly fifty Kings, no one could remain truly calm and composed.

The two exchanged glances, each with a slight smile on their face.

They hadn't seen each other for almost half a year and indeed missed each other a bit.

"Brother Feng, how did you know I was in the Forbidden Domain?" Yun Kai asked with a hint of confusion.

Ever since Lin Feng and Hong Yi went to the Pure Land, Yun Kai had been adventuring in the Other-dimensional Space Gate for half a year.

Although everyone in the alliance knew his purpose, he hadn't informed others about his fight for the "Key" within the Forbidden Domain Space Gate.

This was to avoid alliance members coming to risk their lives to help him.

The battle for the Key was too brutal, and the Forbidden Domain was still the territory of the Abnormal People, who had an absolute advantage in both numbers and power. Without Lin Feng, teammates might easily perish.

This was something Yun Kai could not accept.

So he carefully hid it, preferring to fight alone rather than let others know.

More than being puzzled, Yun Kai's eyes were filled with gratitude at that moment.

If not for Lin Feng's timely rescue, he would have lost not only the hard-earned "Key" but also his life.

Though deeply grateful, given their relationship, there was no need to say overly sappy words of thanks.

That would seem too distant.

Yun Kai, being shy and introverted, didn't like to express himself too frankly.

"Your movements were so noticeable that half the Divine Martial Continent heard about them. How could I not know?"

Lin Feng's expression was somewhat serious, his tone carrying a hint of reprimand.

Yun Kai averted his eyes, smirking awkwardly, unable to refute.

Nor could he refute it.

This time, he was indeed too confident.

Not long ago, he broke through to the Middle Rank Double King, and his Secret Technique Controlling Sword with Qi also achieved Great Success, inflating his confidence.

In the ten-star rated Space Gate, one-on-one, Yun Kai indeed feared no one.

Even when facing a small team and being outmatched, he was confident he could escape safely.

But when facing the siege of dozens of Kings, surrounded, Yun Kai had little ability to resist.

At most, he could take a few down with him before dying.

He didn't have Lin Feng's Stand Soul Skill; once caught in a siege, escaping was difficult.

In the ten-star rated Space Gate, even Lin Feng wasn't confident he could single-handedly block one gate.

Teamwork was necessary.

Only those in the Assassin profession could truly block a gate alone.

Hidden assassins were more feared than the powerful ones.

Moreover, even if one had that strength, it didn't mean they could obtain the "Key."

In the "Key" battle, luck played a significant role.

Yun Kai managed to get the Key mainly because of the advantage of Swordsmanship and being impervious to most attacks in the Golden Transformation state.

This fearlessly allowed him to compete with others.

Lin Feng was somewhat surprised that Yun Kai obtained a ten-star "Key."

And he was happy for him.

Given his talent with Ancestral Demonization, his cultivation speed was already astonishing. Now, with this ten-star "Key," barring any accidents, within ten years, maybe even less, Yun Kai could break through to Emperor.

Perhaps even become a Dual Emperor Powerhouse.

Once an Emperor, Yun Kai would stand out, facing few competitors.

"Even the Dragon King's Hall Sect Leader, the invincible Hai Shan, doesn't dare to be besieged by Emperors. If not for this, an all-out war would have already erupted. Do you really think Hai Shan can't enter Earth?"

Lin Feng glanced at Yun Kai, who touched his head with an embarrassed expression.

"Remember this lesson."

After saying that, Lin Feng didn't continue to reprimand.

"Brother Feng, can this Undead be controlled indefinitely?"

Yun Kai changed the subject, casting a curious glance at the pitch-black skeleton beside Lin Feng.

He knew very little about the Undead Soul Skill. Even book descriptions were incomplete.

"No, it's not that simple."

Lin Feng shook his head.

Even the strongest Divine Level Soul Skill is just a Soul Skill; it can't let him control the Undead indefinitely.

If it could, he could form an Undead army by himself.

Under Yun Kai's gaze, Lin Feng explained, "With my strength, this Undead can only be maintained for about half an hour."

Yun Kai nodded, indicating his understanding.

Indeed, if the Undead could exist indefinitely, it would be too unbalanced.

Lin Feng slightly turned sideways and kicked towards the pitch-black skeleton.

With a crashing sound, the pitch-black bones scattered, quickly falling to the ground.

Lin Feng looked down at the ground.

The uneven ground had only nine incomplete corpses, and the Spirit Soldiers in these corpses' hands had already been taken by the recently retreated Abnormal People, some even stripping the clothes, leaving no valuable loot.

"Let's go."

Lin Feng flapped his wings, flying toward the direction of the Space Gate.

Yun Kai followed closely.

Soon, the two disappeared on the horizon.

Along the way, a large number of Abnormal People were already retreating. To Lin Feng observing from above, it looked like ants moving their home, with a conservative estimate of over two hundred thousand people.

The "Key" to the Space Gate of the Forbidden Domain has been obtained by Yun Kai.

Yun Kai can close this Space Gate at any time.

Although Yun Kai is unlikely to do so, after all, the "Key" is very precious, especially as it is of a ten-star level, which concerns the possibility of becoming an Emperor.

Even so, no one wants to entrust their lives to someone else's hands.

Especially in the hands of a human.

Within Hua Country, there were originally seven ten-star level Space Gates, after the Land of Chaos was closed, six remain.

The Space Gate of the Forbidden Domain is located in Zhou Mountain Base City, right in the city center, heavily guarded.

If this Space Gate closes, it can greatly relieve the pressure on the defenders.

In the future, when the invasion war begins, who can guarantee Yun Kai won't do this?

Therefore, as the news spread that Yun Kai had obtained the "Key", large-scale migrations began.

"Roar Roar!!"

"Howl Howl Howl!!!"

During the flight, the roars and growls of various Demon Beasts resounded continuously.

Such a large-scale migration is bound to attract the attention of Demon Beasts, some even had to pass through the territories of Demon Beasts.

Thus, the slaughter and prey began.

"Sigh!"

Looking at the bloody scenes underground, Yun Kai's expression was complex, and he let out an indistinguishable sigh.

Even as an enemy, even though the other side is the invader and deserves to die, Yun Kai still felt a twinge of unwillingness in his heart.

After all, most of these wailing Abnormal People are civilians, innocent beings.

"A year ago, 2,591 Space Gates were closed globally, causing over a billion casualties. Those bloody scenes were not made public, only some cold numbers. Otherwise, it would only be more tragic, a hundred times more than the current scene."

Lin Feng did not look at the ground, his tone cold as he spoke.

The fourth plan of the King Becoming Plan is to rescue 31 cities.

Lin Feng had participated in the residents' transfer of one city, aware of the difficulty and tragedy involved.

Those scenes, they occasionally appeared in his dreams.

Lin Feng never wanted to participate in another time in his life.

Sympathizing with the enemy, in some sense, is a betrayal to those fallen compatriots.

Too many heartbreaking and sorrowful events have happened around, Lin Feng has no extra compassion left.

Even if he does, he wouldn't give it to Abnormal People.

Behind Lin Feng, Yun Kai nodded silently, the unwillingness in his eyes gradually dissipating.

"Brother Feng, will you go back to the Pure Land later?"

Yun Kai asked, having not met for half a year, he hoped to meet up with Lin Feng.

But Lin Feng had just become one of the Thirteen Celestial Kings of the Pure Land, in Yun Kai's view, his position was not yet stable, and he might return to the Pure Land soon.

"I'll go to Shangjing first."

Lin Feng replied.

Two days ago, he received information from Wang Jian.

The letter mainly mentioned Wang Mian's identity and the development situation of this new world over the years.

Vice Sect Leader of the new world, a position second only to one, above tens of thousands.

Lin Feng was also shocked by the identity of Wang Mian.

He genuinely did not anticipate it.

Lin Feng also had some understanding of the new world.

The status and identity in this organization, besides relating to strength, are also linked to "achievements."

What kind of heinous deeds must one commit to become the Vice Sect Leader of the new world?

But after the initial shock, Lin Feng quickly let it go.

Once being able to slaughter a Base City, being the Vice Sect Leader of the new world doesn't seem so surprising.

In essence, White Clothes has already lost humanity.

Although the text message phrased it quite euphemistically, it clearly hoped Lin Feng could return to Shangjing to provide the organization with a reasonable explanation in person.

Explain his relationship with Wang Mian and whether he knew the other's identity in advance.

Regarding this, Lin Feng felt somewhat uncomfortable, but ultimately agreed.

After all, it's prudent to treat the Vice Sect Leader of the new world with care.

Coincidentally, he also wanted to go back and see his family.

Currently, he has no tasks assigned.

There's no need to return to the Pure Land prematurely either.

In the Pure Land, Lin Feng has quite a few enemies, not only facing threats from the Beast Celestial King and Dream Celestial King, but also challenges from Apostles.

If possible, it would be safer to return to the Pure Land after improving his strength.

"Then I'll also go to Shangjing," Yun Kai said without thinking.

He has already begun to look forward to the alliance members' gathering day.

He Jun and Ye Xing, as well as Yun Tianqi, have joined the Combat Department, all three are in Shangjing.

Yang Ningbing and Zhan Tianyu should also be there.

Unfortunately, Little Sister Dong is in Jiang City and it's uncertain whether she will come.

He also hasn't seen Little Sister Dong for a long time!

No, now she should be called Guardian Dong.

Thinking of this, Yun Kai showed a somewhat awkward smile.
