Chapter 92 Making His Highness the Holy Son lose face
Yan Feng calmly said, "It was that prospective saintess who told me. She infiltrated the Duke's mansion as an assistant."
Xue Bing said, "If that's the case, why are you asking me who did the attack? Is Nana blind?"
Yan Feng said, "Just consider her blind. But based on her description, if I had been there, I would have been blind too."
Xue Bing said, "You can't tell either?"
Yan Feng said, "That's why I came to ask you, who exactly is His Highness the Holy Son looking for?"
Surprisingly, Xue Bing spread his hands and said:
"You're asking me? I don't know either. We asked Elder Scorpion Tiger, and he said that the other elders are all busy with their own affairs lately, and none of them have received the Holy Son's request."
Yan Feng frowned and said, "You don't know either? Xuanji Douluo is level 94 this year. That person was able to not reveal his own distinctive features and even used unfamiliar Tang Sect hidden weapon techniques to seriously injure him. This Elder is at least at the same level as Elder Scorpion Tiger."
Xue Bing said, "Could it be the cult leader's wife, or even the cult leader himself?"
Yan Feng knew that the sect leader would never help Tang Wulin, so he decisively rejected the answer.
But in his heart, he gained a clearer understanding of the terror this holy son posed.
That powerful figure was clearly an expert outside the Holy Spirit Cult. His Highness had only been free from surveillance for a short vacation, yet he had already befriended such a master. One can imagine his ability to win people over.
"But since His Highness is so good at winning people's hearts, why has he only used some extremely meticulous plans to intimidate me throughout the semester, and never tried to win me over? Is it because I have no value?"
Suddenly, Yan Feng was startled. "Could it be that I'm not within His Highness's sphere of influence? Is it because His Highness sees me as an enemy that needs to be eliminated?"
For an entire semester, I didn't realize it. Could it be that during this time, His Highness the Holy Son had already laid a trap for me, and I'm already deeply trapped in it, unable to extricate myself?
Upon thinking of this, Yan Feng broke out in a cold sweat, his pupils dilated, and he even became unsteady when putting down the teacup.
Seeing this obvious change, Xue Bing asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Yan Feng calmly replied, "It's nothing, I just thought of some not-so-good possibilities."
Beside her, Lu Genggeng sneered, "Hmph, you tremble like a leaf at the mere mention of that guy. What's so great about him? Looks like you've turned into my Holy Son's little loli after half a year at Shrek Academy, hahahahaha."
Yan Feng completely ignored him, looked at Xue Bing, and said, "You think so too?"
Unexpectedly, Xue Bing wore a wicked smile and said:
What he says is none of my business. I've always admired you.
However, the part of that statement that I agree with doesn't apply to you.
Yan Feng's eyes narrowed, and he said, "You have doubts about our sect's Holy Son?"
Xue Bing immediately replied, "No! I, Xue Bing, swear to abide by the doctrines of my religion to the death. I never question the authority of the Holy Spirit Son. I am only occasionally a little curious about who His Highness the Holy Spirit Son is."
Seeing Yan Feng's puzzled look, Xue Bing said, "Of course, this curiosity includes why you, as the chief core disciple, with such strong strength, did not take this position? Putting aside everything else, I am very curious about the logic behind the selection of this identity for you, Brother Yan."
Upon hearing this, Yan Feng quickly concealed all his emotions, calmly brewed some new tea, and chose not to respond, saying instead:
"It seems you're quite dissatisfied with that person. So, what are you planning to do? Challenge him?"
Xue Bing looked out the window and said, "Why would I be unconvinced? I just said I was just curious."
Lu Genggeng snorted, and after snorting so many times, he almost snorted out his boogers.
Clearly, he had more radical ideas and seemed quite disdainful of Xue Bing's statement.
Yan Feng kept his head down, doing his own thing, quietly waiting for the next part to continue.
As expected, Xue Bing calmly said, "According to you, His Highness's plan this time is to use someone else's strength against them. By challenging the strong and making a name for himself, he will gather the forces that come to him, and then, with the help of the spies planted by my sect, drive away those useless people who occupy the old site of the Tang Sect."
Yan Feng calmly said, "Get to the point."
Xue Bing said, "Yan Feng, could you give us a detailed introduction to that person?"
Yan Feng asked, "On what grounds?"
Xue Bing immediately smiled and spread his hands, saying, "Haha, you see, you're unwilling. Since we can't get information from you, of course we want to confirm in our own way whether he has the authority to give us orders."
Seeing Yan Feng remain silent, Xue Bing smiled and said, "Don't worry, we won't cause any trouble for your surveillance work. We're just conducting some minor probing within our own area."
Lu Genggeng laughed, "Hahaha, we're going to make this kid lose face! Let him humiliate himself! We treat him like a holy son, and he really thinks he's something special, even ordering us around this time. He deserves a beating!"
Upon hearing this, a cold glint flashed in Yan Feng's eyes, and he said, "I won't keep you company."
After saying that, Yan Feng slowly got up and left.
Xue Bing sneered:
"Brother Yan, there's no need for a calm facade. Be curious; the show is about to begin. Then we'll see what that person's true colors are. Wouldn't that be better?"
Yan Feng walked straight outside without answering, and had no intention of going to watch the play at all.
Not long ago, the suspicion that he had been tricked had been lingering in his mind from the very beginning.
But just at this crucial moment, this incident occurred, and Yan Feng now seriously suspects that Xue Bing's scheme was already within Tang Wulin's calculations.
It's even quite possible that this was all part of Tang Wulin's scheme against him. He had been talking to these troublemakers for so long that he must have already entered the deep waters that Tang Wulin suspected. Up until now, he had been teetering on the edge of extreme danger. He didn't know if leaving now would be considered pulling himself out of the brink of death.
Thinking of this, Yan Feng's pale face was covered in sweat, and he was ready to leave.
Watching a show? What show? I must completely sever ties with this damned provocation!
Yan Feng stepped back from the door, cursing inwardly.
"Two damn idiots, they have no idea what they're doing. They've become puppets teetering on the edge of a cliff, and now they're not only gloating, they're even trying to drag me down with them!"
If I hadn't been so meticulous and hadn't had six months of experience outsmarting him, I probably would have fallen into his trap by now.
Suddenly, a noisy sound came from afar, as if many people were calling Tang Wulin's name, accompanied by a lot of running footsteps, as if they were frantically chasing something.
Yan Feng's heart skipped a beat. He thought to himself, "What a strange turn of events! What kind of scheme or formation is this? It seems that person has already begun to close the net. I must retreat quickly!"
Without hesitation, Yan tossed his trench coat, quickly turned the corner, and disappeared from sight.
