Merging with Demon Spirits

Chapter 521: Chapter 371: Anyone Who Comes Must Die

The sky gradually darkened, and the afterglow of the sunset carried a captivating reddish hue.

From ten in the morning to seven in the evening, this impromptu special training lasted nine hours, with only half an hour for lunch.

It started with the Avengers Alliance vs. Bu Zheng and Dong Xiuxian. After this battle ended, the 14 people split into two teams, 7v7, constantly replacing team members to adapt to each other’s soul skills and fighting styles, as well as tactics and soul skill coordination.

Walking out of the training hall, though everyone’s stamina wasn’t completely exhausted, they all felt a bit famished.

”I feel like I could eat a whole cow.”

Dong Yunan said, and Dong Xiuxian smiled, patting his daughter’s head. Today’s little sister Dong’s performance surprised him and made him sigh with emotion.

His daughter had indeed grown up.

”That’s too exaggerated, you’re not even as big as a cow,” Yue Mingming said with a laugh.

”We’re heading out, see you later.”

Zhan Tianyu and Yang Ningbing waved to everyone and left.

Their home was in Shangjing, and tomorrow they would enter the Land of Chaos. Although they were confident in their own abilities and those of their teammates, the key scramble was extremely dangerous.

This time, with so many alien race prodigies converging, a large number of kings would appear. No one could guarantee survival, and thus, tonight’s dinner held a special significance.

”Brother Feng, I’m leaving too.”

He Jun also waved goodbye. Her parents and brother had come to Shangjing, and she wanted to go home to have dinner with her family.

Worried about her family’s opposition, she hadn’t told them about her entering the Land of Chaos.

Compared to other alliance members, she only had the strength of Second Grade in Martial Arts. Although she had refined a demon spirit, it had no combat power.

In He Jun’s own view, she didn’t even qualify to be cannon fodder and was entirely a burden.

In the earlier training, she hadn’t had a chance to participate.

As the only spectator, though she appeared calm and composed, each time she made eye contact with other team members, she felt inferior and embarrassed.

He Jun knew the mortality rate in this key battle was high. Even kings could fall, let alone her.

Even with the alliance members’ protection, accidents could happen at any time.

If her family knew the truth, they would do everything to stop her, not knowing how worried they would be.

Yet, she also knew this was the best opportunity to become stronger.

Lin Feng and his team were super geniuses, growing rapidly. Currently, she was a burden to the team, not even qualifying as dead weight.

If she didn’t seize the opportunity to grow stronger and prove her worth, she would be abandoned.

He Jun knew that if it weren’t for Lin Feng viewing her differently, the others wouldn’t spare her a glance.

They belonged to different worlds.

Perhaps there would be opportunities to become stronger in the future.

But there wouldn’t be so many ’sacrifices.’

She wanted to possess power.

Wanted to obtain status, stand high, and have others look up to and respect her.

Wanted to say a word and have subordinates competently carry out her orders.

Just like Huang Tianze.

She liked and reveled in this feeling, willing to sacrifice anything for it.

Now, her brother’s legs had healed, he could stand again, her parents had a few hundred thousand, enough if they saved, and the alliance had promised to take care of her family if anything happened to her.

Everything was well-arranged.

She had nothing to worry about.

Even if she died, she had no regrets.

The alliance members left one after another, Little Sister Dong followed her father to dinner.

Tonight’s special dinner seemed to be imbued with a different meaning, and everyone’s emotions were somewhat complex.

Not just them, tonight Shangjing was much quieter. People’s expressions were solemn and heavy, even speaking in intentionally hushed tones. There was a sense of impending storm, with a repressed atmosphere tinged with sadness.

Those with homes went to their homes, those with family and friends gathered together. In the end, only four remained: Lin Feng, Yu Qiao, Yue Mingming, Bu Zheng.

Yu Qiao’s and Yue Mingming’s homes were in Guanglin, they had no relatives in Shangjing, and had nowhere to go, so they could only return to the hotel.

”Why all the sentimentality, is it necessary?”

Yu Qiao said with a laugh, the tone full of disdain.

The others were more or less worried, even Lin Feng wasn’t an exception.

Lin Feng wasn’t worried about himself, regardless of the opponent, he was confident. If he wanted to escape, no one could stop him.

What he truly worried about was whether he might lose a few companions this time?

At this point, Lin Feng admired Yu Qiao to some extent, this guy might act recklessly, but his nerves were indeed robust, his mindset uncommon, knowing neither worry nor fear, even eager to get into the fight, as if anxious to start the killing sooner.

”If you don’t die, your future is boundless.”

Bu Zheng sighed.

Yu Qiao’s mentality was indeed very suitable for being an assassin, and he had the talent. Now that he had absorbed [Shadow Binding], and possessed a Six-winged Illusion Python.

With Lin Feng’s help, once he absorbed the [Illusion] soul skill, he indeed had the conditions to become a top-level assassin.

”Need you ask?”

Being praised by Bu Zheng, Yu Qiao wasn’t surprised at all, his demeanor was as a matter of course, without a hint of modesty, and as confident as ever.

Bu Zheng shook his head and sighed.

In their chatter, they returned outside the hotel. When Lin Feng saw the figures outside the hotel, he halted, then quickened his pace.

At the hotel entrance, Lin Fang and Ma Lele were eagerly awaiting.

Seeing their son, Lin Fang, although excited, just waved as usual, displaying a warm smile.

”Mom!”

Lin Feng stood in front of his mother, a smile on his lips and a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Although he wanted to bring his family to Shangjing, he didn’t expect his mother would come on her own during this special period.

He hadn’t seen her for two years, and he missed his mother very much.

”Brother.”

Ma Lele was now fourteen years old and hadn’t changed much, with her little face still chubby. Seeing Lin Feng arrive, her chubby face was filled with happiness and excitement.

”Brother, did you miss me?”

Even though they hadn’t seen each other for two years, Ma Lele didn’t feel any unfamiliarity and began to act spoiled, hugging Lin Feng’s waist.

”I did.”

Lin Feng touched his sister’s chubby face and smiled, ”It’s getting better and better to touch.”

”You’re annoying.”

Ma Lele puffed her cheeks, trying to push Lin Feng’s hand away from her face.

”Mom, how come you’re here?”

Lin Feng asked his mother.

Like Lin Fang, although Lin Feng was also very excited, he expressed it very subtly, without any hugs or the like.

”I missed you, so I came.”

Lin Fang said with a smile.

On the way here, she had a lot to say to her son, but once they actually met, she didn’t know where to start.

Seeing his mother’s smile, Lin Feng’s previously taut nerves relaxed.

He liked seeing his mother smile; it made him feel particularly at ease and happy.

Seeing Lin Feng’s family arrive, Bu Zheng and the others did not disturb them and went straight into the hotel.

”Brother, the meal is ready. Let’s go eat.” Ma Lele patted her belly and said.

”Okay.”

Lin Feng replied, walking into the hotel with his hands on his mother’s and sister’s shoulders.

Hotel lobby.

Seeing the three of them, many people smiled and greeted them politely.

In the room, seeing Lin Feng arrive, his eldest sister Lin Kerou smiled and said, ”You’re back.”

Old Ma, who was next to them, also smiled but didn’t say much. As Lin Feng’s stepfather, he had always felt somewhat inferior in front of him, especially now.

The meal was ready, seven dishes and a soup, all of Lin Feng’s favorites. After two years, the family gathered again for a meal.

During this meal, they talked about the changes in the past two years, family matters.

Everyone deliberately avoided the topic of the Land of Chaos, and even if it was accidentally mentioned, they quickly changed the subject.

Lin Feng knew that his family didn’t want to put any pressure on him.

Everyone spent the evening laughing, and after dinner, the family lounged on the sofa watching TV. Most channels were reporting on the Land of Chaos.

Ma Lele chose a comedy show, and everyone ate fruit and watched TV as if they were still in Jiang City.

It was only at two in the morning that everyone reluctantly went to their rooms to sleep.

Lin Feng watched his family fall asleep one by one, then sat alone in the living room for a while.

Tonight, everyone tried very hard to act relaxed, not mentioning anything about the Land of Chaos, nor giving any advice or showing concern, trying to make everything seem normal.

As if it were just an ordinary day.

As if nothing would happen.

Lin Feng could clearly sense his family’s worry and anxiety, see his mother’s slightly reddened eyes and her tears held back with great effort.

But as always, they respected his choices and didn’t want to give him any pressure.

Lin Feng cherished the time spent with his family and appreciated it deeply.

Having experienced death once, he valued this ordinary life even more.

Lin Feng slowly got up and went to the next room.

In the room, all the members of the Avengers Alliance were waiting, with many holding Sealing Demon Soul Skills, chatting while waiting for Lin Feng to arrive.

”What took so long?”

Zhan Tianyu asked, with a hint of complaint in his tone.

They had been waiting for two hours by then, and Lin Feng hadn’t replied to their messages. If they hadn’t known Lin Feng’s family was visiting today, they would’ve thought he had fallen asleep.

As the young master of his family, Zhan Tianyu never liked waiting for others.

”Let’s begin.”

Lin Feng glanced at Zhan Tianyu, his serious expression causing the latter to tense up, daring not to complain any further.

Usually, Lin Feng seemed easygoing and indifferent, but when he became serious, he made Zhan Tianyu nervous.

Others could also sense the change in Lin Feng’s mood, his usual calm expression now tinged with coldness and a hint of killing intent.

They exchanged glances, their expressions slightly changing but said nothing, only becoming more serious.

The arrival of his family indeed relaxed Lin Feng’s mood.

But regarding this key, he was even more determined to obtain it.

He had people he needed to protect!

Therefore, nothing could change!

So, this time, regardless of who the opponent was, whether an Apostle candidate, an Assassin, or a genius or king of an Alien Race, or even an Emperor.

Nobody could interfere.

Everyone who dared to come would have to die!
