Chapter 1273: Chapter 1307: Legends of the Bright Church

“Alright, since you’re fine now, I can be at ease.” Meng Chanji’s face was pale, and he forced a smile, then turned his back. A trace of bright red blood seeped out from the corner of his mouth.

“I wonder if there’s something I should ask or not?” Lin Zifeng thought for a long time and finally chose to ask.

“Whatever it is, just say it.”

“Alright, since Director Meng said so, I, Lin Zifeng, have no reason to hold back. I wonder why Director Meng treats me so well, helping me time and again, and this time even going to Fusang to rescue our Nantian Gang despite the long distance. I really can’t figure out what reason Director Meng has to help me?” Lin Zifeng had been speculating in his mind that if Meng Chanji wanted to use him, he completely had no reason to.

Even if it was because of his father, Meng Chanji didn’t have to risk offending the Jipu family.

“Kid, you should know what you should and shouldn’t ask. Now that you’re alright, I hope you won’t ask these useless things anymore. I’ve already solved the trouble in Fusang for you, and in the next three years, if you haven’t reached the Sub-Saint Realm, don’t try to show off in Fusang. They are more terrifying than you can imagine! What you have seen are just superficial phenomena; the true horrors are deeply hidden within.”

“You mean…”

Lin Zifeng’s face turned pale, and his facial muscles twitched twice. Hearing what Meng Chanji said, could there be enemies in Fusang stronger than the Sub-Saint Realm!

If so, then wasn’t he already in a perilous situation this time?

“No matter how powerful you become, once you infringe on other nations’ interests, there will always be some old ones who will jump out, which is something you should be very clear about.”

Meng Chanji didn’t turn around, but his sickly tone made Lin Zifeng determine that he was definitely injured this time.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t show his back to others.

“Thanks for the advice; I will definitely go back to Fusang again. Of course, the three years you mentioned, in my eyes, it’s at most half a year’s time!”

Lin Zifeng was extremely confident, with the Magic Bracelet on him, that was his greatest reliance.

“Alright, you should go. I’m tired, and I want to rest for a while.”

Meng Chanji waved his hand, signaling Lin Zifeng to leave. He had already explained everything that needed to be said, with no need for Lin Zifeng to stay any longer.

“Pfft…”

Just as Lin Zifeng left the secret room, a mouthful of blood spewed uncontrollably from Meng Chanji’s throat, splattering onto the wall!

“Damn it! Jipu Qingshou, you two old bastards, actually ambushed me. If it hadn’t been for those undying old ones from the Bright Sect breaking my leg and injuring my Elemental Power Seed back then, do you think I would be so easy to bully?”

Meng Chanji pulled his robe aside, and his left leg was completely gone, supported by a prosthetic made of fine steel.

If his left leg wasn’t crippled, those eight Sub-Saint Realm ninjas along with Jipu Qingshou would have been eliminated by him within minutes today, not lingering till now!

Recalling that great battle from years ago, the unforgettable scene still lingered in Meng Chanji’s mind.

The Bright Church, renowned as the oldest and most mysterious existence in the West, had seen three generations of Hierarchs fail at Nirvana, leaving their bodies maimed, ultimately sealing their remains within the ancient castle.

That night, when the martial arts world brought news of the downfall of the Holy War Angel, Meng Chanji went completely insane.

He immediately thought it might be the work of the Bright Church people, and acted impulsively.

Lone as an arrow, he charged into the oldest castle of the West, within the Bright Church.

Then he encountered the Bright Hierarch, whose battle with the Holy War Angel had ended in a draw. That night, knowing he was no match, Meng Chanji attempted to escape, only to be trapped in the Sealed Land by the previous three failed Hierarchs’ sealing of Nirvana.

It was also that rainy night he lost his left leg!

Since then, his cultivation plummeted!

From the strength of the Sixth Layer Heaven in the Sub-Saint Realm, he plummeted to the Fourth Layer Heaven!

One must know, once the Elemental Power Seed condenses within, the vital energy gradually transforms into Primordial Energy.

Practically, each layer is comparable to an insurmountable rift!

Some cultivators, for their entire lives, might never advance a layer in strength.

Upon reaching the strength of the Sub-Saint Realm, it signifies a complete leap beyond the vital energy level, entering an entirely new domain, starting to generate Primordial Energy, arranging a unique barrier for oneself!

Collaborating with the Totem exhibited during the Qi Dao Realm, extending to the King Realm’s Totem Battle Skills.

With Totem Battle Skills for attack and a Defensive Barrier for defense, naturally, they are far stronger than those experts who have not reached the Sub-Saint Realm!

“Pfft…”

Another mouthful of blood spewed out.

Meng Chanji’s face was extremely pale, and surviving whilst confronting eight opponents of the same Sub-Saint Realm with a crippled body was already a miracle!

…

The next morning, Nangong Bing only got back from working overtime until past two in the evening, opening the door to see Liu Ruyan and the other two asleep on the living room sofa, all three tangled together, making Nangong Bing both angry and amused.

“Ruyan, did you go out drinking last night?” At the dining table, Nangong Bing had just questioned Lin Zifeng about what time he came back last night, but this guy wouldn’t say a word about when he returned or who he was with.

Anyway, the drinking thing absolutely can’t be let known to Nangong Bing, so the three women kept secrets from each other, no one betraying anyone.

“Cousin, we just had a little bit to drink last night, it’s no big deal.”

“No big deal? Huahua, do you know how you three slept last night? Drunk like that, and you still tell me it’s no big deal. Little girls, if you three drank like that and met some bad guys, what would you do? Did you think about the consequences?”

As she spoke, Nangong Bing’s gaze kept falling on Lin Zifeng, who was eating eggs beside her.

This made Lin Zifeng feel a bit awkward.

Is this about scolding someone without naming? Have you seen a bad guy as handsome as me?

Lin Zifeng muttered to himself, but dared not say anything, hunching his shoulders, eating his egg quietly alone.

“Cousin, I’m sorry, I won’t dare next time.” Realizing her cousin was angry, Huahua also felt it was time to take the initiative to admit her mistake, fearing her cousin might vent all her anger on Lin Zifeng.

“Alright, you know you’ve done wrong. Just don’t do it again in the future.”

Nangong Bing feigned anger in a couple of sentences, then glanced at Lin Zifeng, “Come with me to the company today.”

“Alright!”

Lin Zifeng almost nodded in agreement without thinking.

“…”

So straightforward? Could this guy have done something to feel guilty about towards me? Why the sudden change?

Nangong Bing blinked her pretty eyes, secretly pondering Lin Zifeng’s change.

(This is the fourth update today, nearly 2 o’clock, so it’s considered a struggle, been too busy during the day. Monday and Tuesday are very important, I implore brothers and sisters for a little support, a reward, to get Huahua on the list. It’s very important! Not too much.)
