Chapter 126 - Li Longling Confirmed The Truth With Her Father

"Master Li, take care..."

Feng Yu Die smiled and waved goodbye to Li Feng. Only when she couldn't hear his footsteps anymore did she drop her raised hand and cover her chest, letting out a heavy sigh.

"Phew--"

The moment Li Feng instantly arrived behind her, her heart almost jumped into her throat, thinking that he would bury her on the spot. Fortunately, her cultivation level was still low, and Li Feng didn't seem to take her seriously.

Feng Yu Die still had some self-awareness.

She wouldn't be afraid of an opponent one level higher, but Li Feng was two levels higher than her. Not to mention that he once followed the Immortal Matriarch on her expeditions to the north and south to fight against the evil forces of the Eastern Region.

Master Taixu had taught her that cultivators like Li Feng, who had poor qualifications but very high cultivation, fought most of their way out of a bloodbath. Whether in terms of tactics or fight experience, they were far superior to other cultivators of the same level.

She had no confidence that she could defeat Li Feng, and now it looked like he was ready to make a move while she and Ye Anping still had three demonic cultivators that they hadn't gotten rid of yet...

Feng Yu Die looked at the direction in which Li Feng left, biting her thumb and anxiously thinking about how to solve the current problem. But no matter how much she racked her brains, she couldn't think of any way other than running away.

"Tsk..."

Xiao Tian seemed to have sensed that Feng Yu Die's heart was in turmoil and got out of her brow, floating in front of her with her arms akimbo. "Yu Die, don't you have any confidence in Master Ye? Although I don't know where he got the info, he has known what Li Feng is going to do for a long time, and he must be fully prepared."

Feng Yu Die didn't comment, and after thinking for a while, she suddenly stomped her feet as if she was fed up. "Arrgh! Forget it, it's so annoying! I don't want to think about it anymore. I'll leave the brain work to him, and I'll just be responsible for chopping and slashing."

With that said, Feng Yu Die turned around and ran in the direction where Li Feng had just come from, preparing to fish out Li Longling, and then take her and Xiao Yunluo to leave the mansion and go to Duchun City to find Ye Anping.

Xiao Tian floated beside her, feeling inexplicably relieved.

Her dear Yu Die did not even realize that she had gradually started to rely on Ye Anping.Discover new chapters at novelhall.com

Yu Die relying on a man was something that Xiao Tian never dared to dream about in the past. And if this situation developed like this, maybe not long after, she would realize that having a man by her side was not necessarily a problem but a good thing.

"When will they get together? I'm so worried."

?

Feng Yu Die glanced at her. "What was that?"

"Nothing."

"Oh..."

Feng Yu Die stopped paying attention and ran along the corridor for a while until she finally arrived at the mansion's inner chamber. She opened the door and hurried inside.

"Sister Li! I've come to save you!"

Li Longling sat on the ground, arms around her knees. Next to her was a maid who was saying something to her. When she heard the door being kicked open, she slowly raised her head.

"... Ah, yes."

"Sorry, I couldn't convince my father. He's already obsessed with it."

"No, it's not your fault."

Li Longling nodded. After taking a deep breath, she asked again, "Sister Feng, does your brother have a way to stop my father?"

"Of course!"

"That's good." Li Longling clenched her fists. "There is a secret compartment under the bedside in my bedroom. You'll find a jade pendant inside. That is my token. Sister Feng, you go get it later. This is probably the only way I can help you."

"A jade pendant?"

"Well, you guys, take this jade pendant and find the head of the Dragon House guards. Seeing the pendant is like seeing me. They will listen to your command then."

Feng Yu Die took note of it, nodded, and then cupped her hands. "Then, Sister Li, I will come for you when this is over. Until then, you just stay here."

"Alright."

Li Longling nodded, then listened to Feng Yu Die's footsteps getting further and further away. When she could no longer hear them, she suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

Her father had just told her that he had less than a month to live.

If Feng Yu Die and the others could really stop her father, there was no doubt that she would receive the news of his death.

Helping Feng Yu Die and the gang now was almost the same as becoming complicit in her father's death.

Maybe it was better to leave things to fate.

Through the blood sacrifice, her father could break through the bottleneck, prolong his life, and still be by her side in the future.

But...

"Father, I'm sorry."

At this moment, the door was once again opened.

The maid who waited outside saw Feng Yu Die leaving, so she entered and asked, "Miss, what happened?"

"Nothing, Ling'er." Li Longling sniffled and smiled. "Can you go to the bookshelf in my father's study and find a book to read to me?"

"Eh? Which one would you like to hear, Miss? What's its name?"

"Get a few more books. Anything on the bookshelf is fine. When I was a child, my father often read those books to me."

"Yes, Miss..."
