The purple Spiritual Energy resembled a cotton ball, soft and fluffy, lacking any domineering presence.
Lingfeng was indifferent, not taking this move seriously at all. He curled his lip and took out the Connecting Rod, pretending to block the Spiritual Energy with it.
However, that Spiritual Energy floated down like a leaf in the air, drifting gently. Not only did it not get dispersed by Lingfeng, but it also wrapped around the Connecting Rod and entered Lingfeng's body.
"Falling Leaf Technique? Is this the power of the Falling Leaf Technique?" Lingfeng was taken aback; the appearance of that Purple Aura reminded him of his own attack on falling leaves. It seemed that this must indeed be the power of the Falling Leaf Technique. In other words, Ziren truly possessed the Falling Leaf Technique.
In an instant, the Spiritual Energy evaded Lingfeng's Connecting Rod and suddenly accelerated, entering Lingfeng's body faster than lightning.
Lingfeng felt a sense of dread in his heart and hurriedly stored the Connecting Rod into Xuanji.
Immediately after, Lingfeng's body lost all sensation. It felt as if he were floating in the air like a balloon, unable to move at all.
"Search!" Ziren said calmly.
The guards nearby followed the command and stepped into the cage. They turned Lingfeng's body over completely, but found nothing on him; even the earlier rod had vanished without a trace.
"My lord, we found nothing!" one person reported as he approached Ziren and bowed his head.
Ziren remained silent and waved his hand, signaling for them to step back.
Lingfeng felt a chill in his heart; it seemed Ziren was going to take matters into his own hands. He hoped desperately that Ziren would not recognize Xuanji.
Sure enough, Ziren slowly stood up and walked in front of Lingfeng. He gently lifted Lingfeng's chin, almost face to face, and said, "Friend, hand over those items obediently, and I will let you go!"
Lingfeng thought for a moment and said loudly, "Alright, then you can take this girl to the village entrance. After that, release those people from Wisteria Mountain. Once I know they are safe, I will give you what you want!"
"My lord..." One person nearby seemed to disagree with Lingfeng's request and was about to speak, but was stopped by Ziren.
"We are all men here, and I believe my brothers will keep their word!" Ziren said, waving his hand backward. Some of the people understood and walked out of the garden.
Before long, those people returned, bringing Bear Brute and others, including the boy and Man Pillar.
"Lingfeng brother, what brings you here?" Upon seeing Lingfeng, Bear Brute showed an anxious expression and said, "You fool, when I placed Horn on the table before, it was to let you and Crane Beast leave far away. Why did you come back?"
Lingfeng smiled nonchalantly and replied, "Brother Bear, Brother Man, we are all brothers. Since I chose to come back, I naturally have my reasons!" He then looked at Ziren and said slowly, "Alright, sissy, now I want to see them leave safely!"
At this point, Ziren was utterly helpless against Lingfeng; he had to do whatever Lingfeng wanted. Even when Lingfeng called him a sissy, his expression only changed slightly.
Ziren nodded, still maintaining a stern face. He escorted Lingfeng and led everyone to release Bear Brute and the others from Bai Family Town.
Just as they were about to head back, Lingfeng took the opportunity to sit down on the ground and called out, "Don't rush off yet; I still have something to say to my friends!" He then walked towards Bear Brute and the others.
One person tried to stop him, but Ziren signaled for them to let him through.
"Hmph!" Lingfeng snorted proudly as he followed Bear Brute and the others at a distance. Lowering his voice among the crowd, he said, "They are after Phoenix Pearl, but I can tell that Ziren is not a good person. However, the leader of Demon Suppression Sect is secretly protecting me, so you don't need to worry. I will hold them back for a while; just go as far as you can!"
The crowd exchanged glances, some hesitating.
Lingfeng was anxious and said, "By the way, take my partner with you to find a hidden place to hide. I will return in three days!"
"At this time, Wisteria Mountain has been completely burned down, but the entrance is still not easy to find. We will return to Wisteria Mountain tonight. If you come back within three days, we will meet there. If you can't return, we will fight our way back!" Bear Brute said with great intensity and seriousness to Lingfeng.
Lingfeng felt a surge of emotion and nodded heavily.
"Can we leave now?" Ziren asked softly when he saw that Bear Brute and the others had already gone far away.
Lingfeng shot a glare at Ziren, deliberately shivering as he mockingly said, "If you want to talk, do it like a man. Don't be so whiny; it makes me sick!"
Ziren was taken aback and remained expressionless.
In fact, Ziren was not as pathetic as Lingfeng thought. It was just that in Lingfeng's eyes, Ziren was simply unlikable. Especially the way Ziren polished his ring, which resembled a court eunuch.
Upon returning to the White Jade Escort Agency, Ziren first had someone untie Lingfeng, then prepared a late-night snack.
After a night of turmoil, Lingfeng was exhausted. During the meal, the only sound in the room was Lingfeng devouring his food ravenously.
After finishing the meal, Lingfeng wiped his mouth carelessly, stretched lazily, and said with immense satisfaction, "I'm so full! After eating, I just want to sleep!" With that, he lay down on the bed without even looking at Ziren.
However, just as he lay down, he nervously sat up again.
A look of joy appeared in Ziren's eyes, thinking that Lingfeng was about to give him the Phoenix Pearl and the Falling Leaf Technique.
However, Lingfeng smiled brightly, pointed to the door, and said, "With you by my side, I dare not sleep!"
"I..." Ziren was at a loss for words, struggling to find a response. Helplessly, at that moment, Lingfeng was in charge, and all he could do was go along with Lingfeng's wishes.
Seeing Ziren awkwardly leave the room, Lingfeng smiled with satisfaction. She blew out the lamp and began to cultivate on the bed.
After a while, there was no sound outside. Lingfeng opened one eye; the entire room was quiet. Due to the window separating her from the outside, she couldn't sense any presence beyond it.
After waiting a bit longer, Lingfeng quietly approached the bedside, attempting to open the window. However, as soon as her hands touched it, a sudden jolt of electricity surged through her body.
Lingfeng shuddered violently and cursed under her breath, "Damn demoness, filthy demoness, setting up a barrier!" With that, she angrily lay back down on the bed.
The next moment, Ziren returned to Lingfeng's room.
Lingfeng lay on the bed with dark circles under her eyes, seemingly having not slept well.
"When do you plan to hand over the Phoenix Pearl and Falling Leaf Technique?" Ziren asked straightforwardly.
Lingfeng glanced at Ziren with infinite melancholy in her heart. In a dazed manner, she exclaimed, "A tiger falls in the plains and is bullied by dogs; people stumble and horses trip!"
Ziren did not understand what Bai Lingfeng was getting at. Although curious, he maintained a serious expression and did not ask further.
Lingfeng secretly looked at Ziren and chuckled inwardly, saying, "Do you know that a gentleman's revenge is never too late?"
"What does it mean?"
"Hi~~!" Lingfeng sighed deeply and said, "Last night I was almost assaulted, and it's all thanks to you. To be honest, if I don't take revenge, the hatred in my heart will be hard to relieve. In that case, I would rather die than submit!"
Ziren's face grew increasingly grim; indeed, it was like a fierce tiger encountering a cunning monkey—impossible to bear, filled with resentment!
"What do you want to do?"
Lingfeng got up and sat on the chair, crossing his legs. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Naturally, I will repay them in their own coin!"
"Hmph!" Ziren actually snorted coldly, and then the Soul-Devouring Cat suddenly appeared beside Ziren.
Lingfeng smiled with satisfaction and said, "Not bad, you really understand!"
What Lingfeng meant was for the Soul-Devouring Cat to strip Ziren of his clothes.
However, the situation was not as such.
Ziren was incredibly proud; for many years, no one had dared to mock him like this. And this fellow before him, though not very powerful, was able to flaunt his strength. After enduring for a night, he had reached his limit.
Lingfeng was waiting to see a good show when he noticed Ziren's Bat Ring suddenly flash. Immediately after, the Soul-Devouring Cat seemed to be controlled, its gaze suddenly sharp and filled with Killing Intent.
"This is bad!" Lingfeng thought to himself and quickly got up to defend himself.
"Since you want to repay me in kind, I will grant your wish!" With that, Ziren forcefully waved his right hand.
The Soul-Devouring Cat received the command and let out a piercing yowl, its tail shooting up as it darted towards Lingfeng.
Lingfeng looked disdainful, folding his arms behind his back. Just as the Soul-Devouring Cat approached him, Lingfeng suddenly swung his hand, and a flash of white light appeared. The Soul-Devouring Cat let out a tragic cry and fell to the ground, now missing three of its legs. On the ground lay a pool of black blood with one of its paws.
Seeing this, Ziren frowned and glanced at Lingfeng, noticing he held nothing in his hands.
The Soul-Devouring Cat lay on the ground, trembling and clearly in pain.
"How about that? I told you, I'm not someone to be trifled with. There are no outsiders here. Let me tell you, I am also practicing the Falling Leaf Technique. Of course, I know you are training in the lower part of the Falling Leaf Technique, which is why you are so powerful. But when magic rises a foot, the Dao rises a mile. Since I know you are practicing the Mind Method of the Falling Leaf Technique, I naturally have ways to counter it!" Lingfeng raised his head, exuding an air of dominance.
Ziren remained silent and walked over to the Soul-Devouring Cat, gently picking it up and retrieving its paw. He muttered a few words under his breath, and his whole body began to emit purple gas. The Soul-Devouring Cat was gradually enveloped by the purple gas and then absorbed it entirely into its body.
Ziren placed the cat's paw back on the Soul-Devouring Cat's leg, and to everyone's surprise, a flash of spiritual light appeared as the paw reattached itself.
"So how will you counter me?" Ziren asked coldly, lowering his head.
"I-I have my ways!" Lingfeng stammered, shocked by what he had just witnessed. He couldn't help but doubt Ziren's cultivation level; could the Falling Leaf Technique also have healing properties?
