Chapter 976: With Freezing Irony and Burning Satire
Peerless Martial God
âThe boat broke and you ended up on a island in the middle of nowhere... Zi Ye, how did you manage to come back? Did a powerful group rescue you?â asked the old man coldly. He was furious at the pirates.
âI met Lin Feng. I was alone with the two bodyguards who betrayed me. They wanted to rape and kill me. Lin Feng killed them both and fixed the boat.â said Yang Zi Ye.
The old man frowned. He looked outside with his awareness but surprisingly didnât care about Lin Feng.
âHeâs not an amazing fighter, but he managed to fix the boat, show me the boat.â said the old man.
Yang Zi Ye didnât know what to say, she remained silent.
âWhatâs wrong?â asked the old man.
âLin Feng fixed the boat and saved me but in exchange, he wanted to keep the boat.â said Yang Zi Ye in a low voice.
The old man frowned and suddenly looked angry.
âHow dare he steal our items?â
âGreat grandfather, that boat was broken, I didnât care about it anymore and I was stuck on the island. Lin Feng managed to fix it and save me, giving him that wrecked boat is not big deal when you look at it that way.â explained Yang Zi Ye.
âHmph, why did he come here with you?â asked the old man coldly.
âI... donât know.â said Yang Zi Ye shaking her head.
âEverybody wants to marry you to mix their blood with ours. Youâre extremely beautiful. In the northern part of Ba Huang Province, everybody is interested in you.â the old man reminded her.
Yang Zi Ye remained silent. Lin Feng had saved her but he had obtained a boat, that was great already. Now, he had come with her to her clan, why?
âGreat grandfather, he saved me after all. Give him the boat and a few abstruse crystals, I owe him that at the very least.â said Yang Zi Ye.
âZi Ye, you are too generous.â said a young man coming inside. That young man was handsome and looked like Yang Zi Ye.
It was her elder brother, Yang Zi Lan.
The old man looked at Yang Zi Lan and smiled, âZi Lan, Zi Ye is right, since he saved Zi Ye, we canât let anything happen to him. Give him some abstruse crystals and ask him to leave.â
âGreat grandfather, I understand.â said Yang Zi Lan. He looked at Yang Zi Ye and said, âZi Ye, letâs go.â
âAlright.â the siblings left and saw the young man with the silver wings. He wanted to kill Lin Feng.
âBrother Jun Luo, stop.â said Yang Zi Lan. He turned around and recalled his spirit.
âYouâre lucky, if Zi Lan hadnât intervened, I would have killed you.â said the young man mockingly.
Lin Feng nodded at Yang Zi Ye. He had saved Yang Zi Ye and brought her back home, safe and sound. He had helped her a lot. However, being friends with her seemed too inconvenient. It was better for him to leave.
Yang Zi Ye acted as if she hadnât seen Lin Feng at all which made Lin Fengâs smile turn rigid.
âBrother Lin, Iâve heard about you. Thank you for helping my little sister. You can consider the boat as a gift, besides, here are a few abstruse crystals as a gift. Thank you.â
Yang Zi Lan gave a ring to Lin Feng.
Lin Feng was surprised, but took the ring. He felt uncomfortable. The boat could be considered as a gift as well?
What did he mean by âconsideredâ? Lin Feng had fixed the boat, could he give it back after fixing it? Could he have brought Yang Zi Ye back if he hadnât fixed it?
Besides, what were those crystals about? Were they asking him to leave?
Yang Zi Ye looked cold and detached, even emotionless. Lin Feng understood.
âBrother Zi Lan, what is that boat story about?â asked someone.
Zi Lan smiled indifferently and said, âMy little sister was in danger in the middle of the Huang Sea, Brother Lin helped her, but asked for her boat in exchange. He also brought her back home, safe and sound. We canât be mean to him, so the boat and the abstruse crystals are a gift to express our gratefulness.â
âHehe, I see. Thatâs empathy, helping people and stealing their items.â said the young man in silver clothes mockingly.
âHe came here only to steal the items of the Yang Clan.â said all the young men mockingly. Lin Feng looked at Yang Zi Ye and said, âIs that what you think or is that what he thinks?â
Yang Zi Ye looked at him and said, âLin Feng, thank you for having taken me back. Please take the abstruse crystals and leave.â
âHehe, I understand.â said Lin Feng. He felt ridiculous for acting so nice. He threw the ring away and said, âYou can keep your abstruse crystals.â Yang Zi Lan caught the ring with the crystals.
Then, he frowned and said, âIf thatâs not enough, tell me what else you need.â
âNothing.â said Lin Feng indifferently.
âHmph, are those crystals not enough for having saved my sister? Could it be that youâre a bit too greedy!â said Yang Zi Lan while groaning coldly.
âSo you think your sisterâs life is worth a few abstruse crystals? How ridiculous.â said Lin Feng indifferently. He turned around and left.
âI hope that if Iâm in trouble someday, youâll be there to help. Iâm leaving for now, I hope you donât mind.â
âBrother Lin, we donât mind you leaving but please accept the abstruse crystals. Refusing a gift is impolite.â said Yang Zi Lan. Who was Lin Feng to ask them if a life was worth a few crystals?
Yang Zi Lan threw the ring at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng suddenly turned around, condensed Qi in his hand and grabbed the ring. He looked at Yang Zi Ye and her brother and said, âAlright then, Iâll take it. Iâm off now.â
After that, Lin Feng disappeared in the crowd.
Yang Zi Lan looked at Lin Feng coldly. After a few minutes, he calmed down, smiled at the crowd and said, âLetâs be happy, everyone.â
âZi Lan, youâre too nice. You even gave him abstruse crystals.â
âHehe, he helped Zi Ye after all. Now, heâs got her boat too, Iâm not happy about that.â said Yang Zi Lan indifferently.
The young men looked at him. Yang Zi Lan continued, âZi Ye loved her boat... What a pity.â
âBrother, I have something to do. See you later.â said the young man with blue clothes as he left.
âMe too. Letâs go together.â said the young man with silver clothes. Very quickly, the young men left.
Yang Zi Lan smiled in a cold way.
âBrother, what are you doing...â said Yang Zi Lan. The young men were all smart. They knew what Yang Zi Lan wanted. Now Lin Feng was in danger.
âZi Ye, he doesnât care about you, why would we need to be polite?â said Yang Zi Lan. Then, he sat down on a stone bench and said coldly, âHow could he steal our treasures?â
He looked furious.
