Lin Feng has returned!
Isn't he the Lin family's adopted son, the useless Young Master Lin Feng? I heard he was forced into the Wan Beast Abyss by a First-Rank Beast three years ago and was left without a corpse. Who would have thought he could come back alive?
But what good is being alive? After being a waste for twenty years, unable to even defeat a First-Rank Beast, it would have been better if he had died. His several senior sisters, however, are impressive! Not only are they all stunningly beautiful, but a year ago, they nearly turned the royal city upside down searching for this useless man when he went missing.
As a young man with a dazed expression slowly appeared, the crowd in the Tianyu Kingdom's royal city stirred.
The young man was tall and had a somewhat handsome face, but his eyes carried an air of profound weariness. He murmured to himself, "I’m finally back... Lin Feng!"
For twenty years, Lin Feng had been known as the waste of the Lin family in the powerful Yunhuang City. His name was even more renowned than those of the talented Young Masters from the other three great families, all thanks to his Nine Good Senior Sisters! Their presence had elevated the Lin family, an outsider clan, to one of the four great families overnight, allowing Lin Feng, this useless Young Master, to enjoy endless cultivation resources.
The Tianjie Method and Martial Arts were at his disposal, along with countless spirit stones and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures! Yet this waste of Lin Feng had been unable to cultivate for twenty years; he couldn't even touch the threshold of martial arts—truly a case of a wild boar unable to eat fine grains!
To make matters worse, this guy was a complete spendthrift. In pursuit of a woman from a second-rate family, he squandered all his cultivation resources on her, nearly emptying the Lin family's coffers.
After disappearing for over three years, he returned only to seek out Fang Wanyi—what a lovesick fool! Some people watched Lin Feng's retreating figure and clicked their tongues in disdain.
What a lovesick fool—just a pathetic lapdog! He had pined after Fang Wanyi for three or four years without even holding her hand. The moment Yu Shaozhu arrived, Fang Wanyi was glued to him; she must have warmed his bed long ago!
Not just that! I heard Yu Shaozhu has already proposed to the Fang Family, and their dowry includes the Heavenly Tier Spirit Artifact Zhan Tian Shen Jian and Geng Jin Soft Armor, along with six hundred eighty thousand Superior Spirit Stones! All of these were gifts Lin Feng had previously given to Fang Wanyi; now they’ve all become her wedding gifts.
Lin Feng wouldn’t dare to pursue Fang Wanyi again, would he? Now that the Fang Family has latched onto someone like Yu Shaozhu, if they offend Wan Jian Gu Yu Shaozhu, not only will this waste Lin Feng be crushed, but even the Lin family will be flattened. His senior sisters would only end up as Yu Shaozhu’s bedmaids!
As the crowd debated among themselves, Lin Feng had already appeared on a street not far from the Fang Family residence.
In front of him stood two women. One was exceptionally beautiful with an alluring figure and delicate fair skin.
In terms of both looks and stature, Fang Wanyi could be considered one of the rare beauties in the royal city!
Upon seeing Lin Feng, disbelief flooded her eyes as she couldn’t help but exclaim, "Is that really you, Lin Feng?"
"I didn’t die; is this a surprise for you?" Lin Feng replied calmly, though there was an undercurrent of coldness in his tone.
Fang Wanyi's face flashed with a hint of panic, but she quickly concealed it. "No, it's fine as long as you're okay. We've known each other for a while, and I don't want anything to happen to you. However, please don't come looking for me anymore; I already have a fiancé."
Her words made Lin Feng sneer. Three years ago, when they encountered a pair of beasts outside the imperial city during their training, Fang Wanyi had insisted that Lin Feng kill the young beast. As a result, the mother beast had struck him into the Wan Beast Abyss. If it hadn't been for his fortunate escape into Zhu Wu Tower, he would have died countless times by now.
Three years outside the tower equated to thirty years inside. During those thirty years, Lin Feng had remained clear-headed, realizing that being hunted down to the back of Wan Beast Abyss was no simple matter.
He stared coldly at Fang Wanyi. "I’ve only been gone for a little over three years, and you already have a new fiancé? If I remember correctly, our engagement was never officially annulled."
"How dare you!" A woman beside Fang Wanyi shouted angrily. "Lin Feng, you worthless piece of trash, how dare you speak to my lady like that? She has already entered the Void Martial Fourth Layer Realm; what qualifications do you have to claim to be her fiancé?"
She was Zhu Ya, Fang Wanyi's maid. "Lin Feng, you went missing for three years; everyone thought you died in the Wan Beast Abyss. Naturally, the engagement is void."
Fang Wanyi displayed an expression that pushed people away. "Xiao Ya, let's go!"
After saying this, she linked arms with her maid and turned to leave.
"Stop!" Lin Feng shouted coldly.
The two halted in their tracks, and Zhu Ya turned around with a mocking smile. "Don't think that by clinging on like this you can climb up to the Fang Family's heights. My lady's fiancé is Wan Jian Gu Yu Shao Zhu! What are you but a worthless thing? If you anger my lady, Yu Shao Zhu will cripple your limbs and throw you back into the Wan Beast Abyss, leaving you without a burial place!"
Her words sparked another wave of murmurs among the onlookers.
The Fang Family had indeed risen dramatically! Even a maid spoke so arrogantly—how impressive!
Of course! Any elder from Wan Jian Valley is at least at the Qi Wu Realm level; even our Liuli Dynasty's royal family must show them utmost respect. The Fang Family has allied with Wan Jian Valley; it’s only a matter of time before they soar to great heights!
I heard that Yu Shao Zhu is only twenty years old and already a genius at the Peak of Strength Martial Realm. He could easily crush someone like Lin Feng with just a finger! If Lin Feng continues to cling to Fang Wanyi, he might not live much longer!
As the crowd murmured and observed Lin Feng's changing expression, he stepped forward and said, "Of course the engagement should be annulled. But I want my betrothal gifts back! The Zhan Tian Shen Jian, Geng Jin Soft Armor, and sixty-eight thousand Superior Spirit Stones—you must return every single one!"
Lin Feng's words left many people stunned, their eyes wide with disbelief. No one expected him to dare ask Fang Wanyi for the betrothal gifts back; his audacity was astonishing. Did he not realize that the Fang Family had already regarded those gifts as part of Fang Wanyi's dowry?
Particularly, everyone's gaze fell on the long sword behind Fang Wanyi—Zhan Tian Shen Jian. It was said that Zhan Tian Shen Jian was different from other Heavenly Tier Spirit Artifacts; only a strong practitioner from the Qi Wu Realm could infuse their internal energy into it to wield its true power. Below the Qi Wu Realm, one could only possess internal force and would be unable to unleash its formidable strength!
Lin Feng's senior sister had once wielded Zhan Tian Shen Jian and effortlessly slain a Fourth-Grade Mid-Level Monster! Yu Shaozhu was thoroughly satisfied with such a spirit weapon and even planned to take it into the Divine Dragon Forbidden Zone a month later.
Yet now, this so-called waste, Lin Feng, dared to demand Zhan Tian Shen Jian back. Was he out of his mind? What gave him the right?!
While others were shocked, Fang Wanyi's expression visibly darkened at an alarming rate. Zhan Tian Shen Jian, Geng Jin Soft Armor, and six hundred eighty thousand Superior Spirit Stones were indeed gifts from Lin Feng, but they were meant for her as betrothal gifts! Since they had been given to her, they belonged to her! What right did he have to ask for them back?
