Miao San Niang knew that combined, they were no match for the two from Qi Wu Pinnacle. They were beings on the verge of reaching the True Martial Realm! There was no way they could compare to her and the others at the Late Stage of Qi Martial Arts.
So she immediately warned Lin Feng to retreat with her. "You are the only one who wants to save me. And you’re quite handsome; I can grant you one request! Any request!"
However, Lin Feng seemed unfazed, calmly responding, "What?"
Miao San Niang was taken aback; she had no idea what Lin Feng was talking about. Did he lose his mind? Was this really the time for such talk? With a formidable enemy before them, wouldn’t it be more normal to retreat? This guy was simply asking for trouble. "We need to leave quickly! We can forget about the Hedgehog Group; our lives are more important!"
Zhang Luan looked down on Lin Feng, viewing him as a brainless fool who thought he was invincible just because of some talent. There was no need to risk himself alongside such an idiot; his death was merely a matter of time.
"Yes, let’s hurry!" Zhu Zhengyuan, with his pig-like features, urged them on. The rest of Miao San Niang's team echoed his sentiments. They couldn’t understand why she would help this arrogant young man. Even if he wanted to assist them, his lack of strength meant that any reckless help could come at a cost.
They wouldn’t stick around foolishly to help someone they didn’t know, especially when they could easily abandon the Hedgehog Group for the sake of their own lives.
Miao San Niang's first thought was that these people were inhumane. But upon reflection, survival in Wan Beast Abyss was paramount. Thus, she found herself in a dilemma.
Lin Feng spoke softly, "Perhaps they’re right. You can leave if you want."
At that moment, Gong Longfei, who had been silent until now, flashed a glint in his eyes and looked at everyone with a mocking expression. "You all are taking too long; I’ve changed my mind! The Hedgehog Group belongs to me now, so don’t leave just yet."
"The people from Wan Jian Valley have been killed; you all will help me take care of that kid! Whoever helps me will receive some Fire Cloud Porcupines as a reward. If anyone wants to join Wan Jian Valley, I can help you establish connections!"
"Let’s get started! If you refuse, you can die!" Gong Longfei scanned the crowd with evident amusement; he relished in manipulating others.
The feeling of having others completely at one's mercy was particularly exhilarating.
As soon as those words were spoken, everything around seemed to fall into a deathly silence.
Now everyone began to blame Miao San Niang. They could have left peacefully, but now they had to take action. As long as they remained here for even a moment longer, they risked dying at the hands of Wan Jian Valley.
Lin Feng appeared not to have heard Gong Feiyu's words, standing there with an indifferent expression. Surely, the others would fear the might of Wan Jian Valley and come to kill him.
What would you decide?
I just mentioned that I could fulfill one of your requests. Speak now!
Lin Feng wasn't in a hurry to deal with the people from Wan Jian Valley; in his eyes, these foes could be easily eliminated. He found Miao San Niang intriguing and wanted to tease her a bit, perhaps even test her loyalty and affection.
This was nothing for Lin Feng, but it was an extremely important decision for Miao San Niang!
Miao San Niang looked at the indignant crowd of martial artists surrounding them and turned to Lin Feng with a puzzled expression.
At such a moment, everyone present was your enemy. Even I might be one; you are merely at the Qi Wu Realm Initial Stage—why are you so calm? Have you truly given up? Or do you still have a trump card up your sleeve?
You keep saying you can fulfill one request; does that mean any request?
Miao San Niang felt that Lin Feng was unlike anyone she had ever met. His calm gaze held an innate arrogance that set him apart. How could someone like him be a fool?
Moreover, Miao San Niang had already made her decision and wouldn't easily back down.
"Anything is possible!" Lin Feng replied succinctly.
"Then my request is to obtain the Hedgehog Group!" Miao San Niang said earnestly. She needed better pills and spiritual herbs to break through to a higher realm, and she couldn't stand the thought of the Hedgehog Group—after all her hard work—being taken away by the scoundrels of Wan Jian Valley.
"That can be done, but I want to remind you of something," Lin Feng said. "Before we proceed with this matter, anyone who wishes to kill me will die. I see you as someone who values loyalty; go persuade your team. If they persist in their stubbornness, then don’t blame me."
"I can be magnanimous towards those who repay kindness with enmity, but those who come to kill me will only meet death!" Lin Feng specifically warned Miao San Niang in a low voice.
Miao San Niang was taken aback! She had initially found his words quite confusing and now looked at how Lin Feng would respond. Perhaps he would come to understand and escape with her.
As for the so-called request, it was merely a wish in her heart; she never expected Lin Feng could actually fulfill it.
"What if they still insist on their way?" Could he spare them just this once?
Miao San Niang didn’t know what had come over her; she felt that Lin Feng could fulfill her wish, especially with how confident he appeared. So, almost impulsively, she decided to ask him. She thought to herself that if she didn’t persuade him now, would she really just stand by and watch her teammate get killed?
Greed could lead to disastrous outcomes; after all, she only had one chance to make a request.
“Fair and square,” Lin Feng said. “You only have one request.”
“Miao San Niang, come here!” Zhang Luan urged eagerly, having always had a soft spot for her. “The Young Master of Wan Jian Valley has already said that we can only leave after we kill him.”
“Captain, don’t worry about him; he’s destined to die today. No one can save him!” a teammate from Hurricane Squad shouted loudly, trying to remind everyone of the urgency of the situation.
However, Miao San Niang scanned the faces of everyone present and took a deep breath before saying seriously, “Hurricane Squad, listen to my command and quickly gather around me.”
???
What?
Her words stunned everyone in the room! The expressions on their faces were filled with disbelief.
“Captain, have you lost your mind?”
“Those around you are the ones from Wan Jian Valley who want to kill you! By asking us to gather near you, aren’t you putting us against Wan Jian Valley and the other teams?”
“Come back!” Sun Chuanjun, the vice-captain of Hurricane Squad and at the Qi Wu Realm Initial Stage, looked utterly incredulous.
“Miao San Niang! Do you even know what you’re doing? Are you really going to oppose Wan Jian Valley? Are you turning against us?”
